I am making an effort to do 365 this year. Trying not to edit out the trash too much. Letting the photos be what they are. Because some of them are of my family, and don’t belong here, you can go to flikr and see them all there if you wish.
This is a wonderful idea. Portrait photogs, this isn’t hard and could do a lot of good.
You can find this photo here.
A 75-year old man went to his doctor’s office to get a sperm count. The doctor gave the man a jar and said, “Take this jar home and bring me back a sample tomorrow.” The next day, the 75-year old man reappears at the doctor’s office and gives him the jar, which is as clean and empty as on the previous day. The doctor asks what happened, and the man explains:
“Well, doc, it’s like this. First I tried with my right hand, but nothing. Then I tried with my left hand, but nothing. Then I asked my wife for help. She tried with her right hand, but nothing. Then her left, but nothing. She even tried with her mouth, first with the teeth in, then with the teeth out, and still nothing. Hell, we even called up the lady next door, and she tried with both hands and her mouth too, but nothing.” The doctor was shocked. “You asked your NEIGHBOUR?” The old man replied, “Yep, but no matter what we tried, we couldn’t get the damn jar open!”

I found this old shot on a Polish (I think) news site today.
Here’s another of today’s finds.
I am researching a new company, and it came to mind they might be researching me, and came accross this on a google search. I must say, there are good and bad things to be said about being well indexed, and having a long, checkered past on the internets.
