Santa stirs up trouble with toy deployment.





source
 This is the Santa that visited our house in the middle of the night.

 A few of the toys he left mounted a coup attempt, that battle was a messy affair.

One side eventually came out victorious,  but the clean up operation was perhaps the biggest battle of the war.

Hay stacks

Hay stacks seem to have some sort of artistic magnetism.  So for the sake of being artsy - here are a bunch of haystacks.

source
 Delicious


So very haystackian.


 I'm pretty sure there's a haystack. You just have to squint.


source
 Right proper haystack


A fair sized town of haystack's.


 source
Not a hay stack.


source 
 This haystack was so popular, it was a tourist attraction.


Installation art as a "hay stack".


 How is that guy going to get down?


source
Very pricey haystack.

Steaming hot images

Warm,  what a strange word.  Here look;
warm warm warm warm warm warm warm warm warm warm warm
warm warm warm
WARM
and if you say it enough, it sounds like a word from an archaic foreign language.  It is a middle English word from the Old English word wearm, but that doesn't fully explain it's alien quality....  After a bit more research I've found that the word warm (or wearm) was first uttered in the middle of a unusual heat wave that struck the British isles just as the Anglo Saxons were rowing over in their heavy boats.  Dressed for the usual cold and rainy weather, they had become overheated, and in their delirium could only make the sound "wearm" or warm as we know it, and now we say warm to convey slightly hot.

 
Norton Bush has commemorated a few paintings in honor of that momentous event.
