Time Lapse

The Editor did not attend 

a Battle of Fort Sumter reenactment on 

April 12, 1991 to mark the 130th anniversary of the first shots fired in the U.S. Civil War.

Chomp

The Editor notes "Florida Flora" at Flipped Again and prays these muddy alligators are not in the immediate vicinity of Palmetto. 

Muddy Alligators, Florida -- John Singer Sargent 1917

Happy Memorial Day weekend back atcha!

Wild Eyes

The Editor imagines Salvador Dali (L) is surprised by the number of recent posts on his work at Flipped Again. 

Photo caption: Salvador Dalí and Man Ray in Paris, on June 16, 1934 making "wild eyes" for photographer Carl Van Vechten

Man Ray seems positively livid by the mention of his horrible break-up with Lee Miller on 

Les Larmes.

Or maybe Pepto-Bismal.

The Editor recommends 

Alka-Seltzer. 

Doodle Dandy

The Editor is amused. Either every Google home page in America has this doodle today, or some geek in the Doodle dept. knew when to send me a birthday card. 

Thanks Google!
