Part of me hates to put up a new post and take Lady Justice off my front page–but new interesting things keep popping up.  I  will just have to revisit her often.

Here’s my latest “cool find” from Carpe Diem, an econ professor who primarily posts on economic matters, but who occasionally puts up gems like the one above. Enjoy!

Lisa at Open Studio introduced me to the Mosaic maker at Big Huge Labs. I am going to have a lot of fun with this! Here’s a collection of flower photos I have taken over the past year to use on my other blog. (Click on the mosaic to get a larger view. The colors are stunning.) Be sure to check out Lisa’s collage of flickr photos too!

Never Argue with a Woman April 20, 2009

Emailed from a friend:

One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book.

Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, ‘Good morning, Ma’am. What are you doing?’ ‘Reading a book,’ she replies, (thinking, ‘Isn’t that obvious?’)

‘You’re in a Restricted Fishing Area,’ he informs her.
‘I’m sorry, officer, but I’m not fishing. I’m reading’.
‘Yes, but you have all the equipment . For all I know you could start at any moment. I’ll have to take you in and report you”.

‘For reading a book?’ she replies,
‘You’re in a Restricted Fishing Area,’ he informs her again.
‘I’m sorry, officer, but I’m not fishing. I’m reading’.
‘Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I’ll have to take you in and report you.’

‘If you do that, I’ll have to charge you with sexual assault,’ says the woman.
‘But I haven’t even touched you,’ says the game warden.

‘That’s true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment.’

‘Have a nice day ma’am,’ and he left.

MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It’s likely she can also think.
