You're getting very good at blending/masking/mixing.......

Not as good as you. My skills are primitive.

You know that's untrue...

[Psjunkie]

good scale.....horrible things going on that should not be

I'm getting pretty pitiful but yet I persist.

Same subject from different perspectives

Well, this is a dusty little dried blowfish that's got lots of collateral damage from being handled by two generations of 6 curious little boys. Luke, the first grader, says I should have stuck capers in his eye sockets for a more creepy look.

[Psjunkie]

Luke has good ideas....

[minniev]

Luke has good ideas....

He does indeed.

Something being used other than the intended way -

Well this one had the housebound old lady stumped for a while. Then I remembered the cheetah.

Here is the backstory.When I was in my teens, my brother, perhaps 9 or 10, had an introductory French class. He learned just one phrase, a term of endearment- "mon cher" which he misunderstood and mispronounced as "moon cheetah". He began to call our mother "Moon Cheetah", she got a kick out of it, so I used it too. The name stuck. We shortened to just "Cheetah" over the years. One Christmas when I was in college she gave me this stuffed cheetah to remind me of her while I was away. I've always hung my necklaces over his ears and still do. My mother has been dead for 30 years and I miss her still, but the cheetah watches over me in her behalf. Thanks to various dogs and two generations of little boys, he has no tail now, and one button replacement eye, but he is still loved.
