Dale Shrugged

Exploring a new neighbourhood satisfies me that there's poetry everywhere.

There's a store around the corner called Knitter's Attic, open 7 days a week no less!  Despite the name, it is of course, a single storey dwelling.  One of their window displays does show they're progressive enough to have solved the noisy child problem quite well and possibly permanently.


Although I haven't thought much about him lately, I'm glad to know someone in the area is providing updates on Atlas' doings in the back window of their van.


Seeing this assured my journey around the building to see if there were more clues about Atlas.  The storefront sign was obscured by too many trees to take a decent photograph but I can honestly report that the signpost up ahead reads:  Atlas Pood Drapery.  Talk about a fibre-filled colon blowing statement!

Welcome to the jungle people.

Even when I leave the house (which isn't often), it's never as much fun as this.

After you poo drapery, how can you possibly flush it down?

I always ask the questions everyone else wants to know but don't want to articulate...

"Atlas Pood"

And Ayn Rand spun...and spun, as if her casket was on a spindle.

Usually with me Lisa, it's the atrocity on display from people watching but sometimes it's what they do that I have to make notes on.

I can't believe he's renting a store Skyler's Dad, he should be doing his business outside at least!

Poor Ayn. And poor Atlas really. What's a blogger to think Cormac?

And here I thought Atlas only shrugged!

The Knitter's Attic photo kills me and I swear no one else would have noticed that but you Dale!

Dale said...

Apparently it's going around Wendy B! Hey, isn't a shrug a type of jacket or something too?

I've got at least one good eye Genn6! I saw it right away and walked by it on several occasions before I thought to get a picture of it.

In this jungle, it may be curtains for you Dale.

Dale said...

Very swellegant Sans! Can we have those fitted around the front of my head? That way I can get a seeing eye dog to put up with what I have to see in the course of a day!

I can't believe Atlas doesn't have his own tv show yet! Have you checked your local public access channel?

Dale said...

That's one show and channel I don't want to check Barbara. I could go for Knitting in HD though!

明知道他有婚姻,筱蝶還是陷進去了
他告訴筱蝶,不是不願意離婚
只是孩子還小,他不忍心孩子這麼小就面臨父母離婚的難題
他告訴筱蝶,他有多麼愛她
他多想馬上離婚光明正大和她在一起
他告訴筱蝶,她值得更好的人,但是他捨不得放手
只要給他兩年時間,他就會馬上離婚
多麼動聽的話,為了他的承諾,筱蝶甘心傻等
一心等對方離婚、一心想要成為他的太太
然而當兩年的時間過去了
男人還是沒有離婚
他淡淡的對筱蝶說:我配不上妳,所以我要放妳自由!

表姐交了一個人人欣羨的男友,
聽說家裡面很有錢,每個人都很為她祝福。
沒想到結婚之後才發現一切都是男方的謊言,
表姐想要離婚,對方卻死不放手!
看到了這情形,讓我想到了婚前徵信的重要性;
雖然很多人認為婚前徵信是一種懷疑的表現,
但是如果不做婚前徵信,又怎能知道對方刻意隱瞞的事實?
現在我有了論及婚嫁的對象,爸媽也很贊成婚前徵信
婚前徵信的結果對方果真的家世清白孝順的新好男人;
帶著滿滿著祝福與喜悅,我總算能安心的當準新娘!

你打死不承認你的外遇,甚至出手打我,抓姦也要在床是嗎?
真的要抓姦在床你才肯承認自己的背叛?我想要抓姦
不僅僅是為了讓你啞口無言,抓姦也是為了要讓自己出一口氣!
我想要抓姦,我想要讓你知道,外遇不是沒有代價的!
