Found for Friday

This is from a Facebook post from one of my former students….It was better than any jokes I had found.

Denver, CO ·

Lunch experience in Denver airport:

Sitting next to a mom and her daughter. Kid is maybe three, wearing all pink with a pink ribbon in her hair, stuffed rabbit in one hand and eating the bite sized pieces of pizza her mom cut up for her with the other. A bird that somehow got in the terminal lands, grabs a piece of the pizza and takes off.

Kid: Mom! That bird stole my pizza!

Mom: It's ok dear, he's probably hungry...

Kid: You better fly away bird! I'm going to kick your feathered candy ass if I catch you, mother f***er!

Mom: *Horrified look in my direction*

No judgement here, that's some impressive sentence structure for someone her age.

Dijon vu - the feeling you've eaten this mustard before.

Practice safe eating - always use condiments.

Shotgun wedding - A case of wife or death.

A delivery driver for a Chinese restaurant drove in to a building. He was charged with wonton destruction of property.

A man needs a mistress just to break the monogamy.

If a child refuses to take a nap, just call the police. They'll take them away for resisting a rest.

Dancing cheek-to-cheek is really a form of floor play.

Throwback Thursday

This is a painting which I found in an antique shop of my travels.  I know nothing  about it except that it is of Mount Fuji in Japan.  

Japan’s Mt. Fuji is an active volcano about 100 kilometers southwest of Tokyo. Commonly called “Fuji-san,” it’s the country’s tallest peak, at 3,776 meters. A pilgrimage site for centuries, it’s considered one of Japan’s 3 sacred mountains, and summit hikes remain a popular activity. Its iconic profile is the subject of numerous works of art, notably Edo Period prints by Hokusai and Hiroshige.

Elevation: 12,388′

Last eruption: December 16, 1707

Prominence: 12,388′

First ascent: 663 AD

Take a look at the picture and cedar trees. and the old sailing ships.

Here is the signature, Kimura

• Japanese : very common place name and surname, especially in western and northeastern Japan. Variously written, the original meaning is ‘tree village’. Some bearers are descended from the Fujiwara, Mononobe, and other noble families.
