My Salvador Dali Cat

"Ignorant people think it is the noise which fighting cats make that is so affravating, 
but it ain't so; it is the sickening grammar they use."

~Mark Twain

Joey never just sits, he kinda melts into the bed, or a chair or a box. He sits very flat, and they drapes his long legs over the side, resting his head down, like you see here. Like he was just painted by Salvadore Dali. He has many silly little quirks, but this one might just be my favorite. I love my boy!

"I believe cats to be spirits come to earth.
 A cat, I am sure, could walk on a cloud without coming through."

~Jules Verne

A Photo A Day For 6 Months: Day 65~RRC: On The Walls



"There are no walls at the edge of the universe... absence of gravity is the limit of space existence."


~Toba Beta, Betelgeuse Incident


RRC: On The Walls


Above you see one of my very favorite paintings at The Legion of Honor, in San Francisco. I took this photo in July of 2006 on my first visit to the Legion of Honor, and so it was the first time I had actually seen this piece titled, Dorothy Spreckles Munn, by Salvador Dali, in person, but I instantly loved it. I was at the museum that day to specifically see the Monet in Normandy exhibit, but was thrilled to be able to just get lost in all the art at the museum. The picture I took of this painting, really doesn't do it justice, it should really be seen in person. Her eyes are mesmerizing. It is absolutely stunning!


Now, take a look at what I have found on other walls in my many travels...
