It is, after all, not necessary to fly right into the middle of the sun,
but it is necessary to crawl to a clean little spot on earth where the sun sometimes shines
and one can warm oneself a little.
~ Franz Kafka, from Letter to His Father
Notes:
Yes you do Patty. Yes you do.
“Working primarily through staged self-portraiture and portraiture, Patty creates rich vibrant photographs that envision the world in a transformative light. Patty loves to create in the boundaries between real life and the otherworldly, the surreal and the fantastic.” (About Patty Maher)
Notes:
Let’s say that you are driving this semi-trailer truck.
Let’s say you are hauling 25,000 pounds – a full load.
Let’s say it’s a snow covered road in Ontario, Canada.
Let’s say you are rounding the corner on a two-lane highway.
And let’s say that you see two sets of headlights coming at you
– – One from a Snow Plow
– – The other a fully loaded semi passing the Snow Plow on a double, solid yellow line…
Funny and heartwarming.

BAM! A Christmas caroling flash mob. A whisker under 40 million views on Youtube. 100 Chorus Niagara members spread throughout the dining crowd at the Welland, Ontario food court surreptitiously. And then…they light it up. Check out the faces…priceless. VOLUME UP.
Noted that this event occurred in 2010. I must be the only adult Canadian who hasn’t seen the clip. Thank you John E. Smith for the inspiration. Check out John’s post for another Flash Mob in Philadelphia.
