Forgive Me, Jesus, But These Videos Are Funny

Subway Station of the Cross

What follows is commentary and photos from

the internet post where I found this video --

This isn’t quite how I imagined

the second coming of Christ.

What makes this funnier is that I’m pretty sure

that’s at the station for Cologne Cathedral.

It is and every time I see that hole I think of this video.

I remembered to check at the station today and can report

that the structural stigmata are still there --

Why are there 4 holes?? Maybe 5?

It’s His daily commute.

It is written that twice did Jesus stumble and

twice did the cross strike nearby architecture.

So really this is method acting.

Unfortunately they repaired it recently --

And now there's a commemorative plaque of the incident,

posted on the subway wall in three languages --

Giraffes and Retirement Are BOTH Awesome!

This post is dedicated to blogging buddy

Sassybear (Sean) of Idle Eyes and a Dormy,

who loves giraffes (among many other things)

and has (drumroll please)

JUST RETIRED!

Congrats, and enjoy retirement!

Now it's the weekend all the time!

Monday Murals -- Up, Up And Away!

 I'm taking part today in

Monday Murals hosted by Sami.

This whimsical silhouette mural by an unidentified artist

is found on the side of a building which houses

a mechanical services business in my city of Edmonton.

It's a great little landmark in the area!

Sunday Selections # 792 -- Colour of the Month: Gold.

For today's Sunday Selections,

a blog hop party of photography challenges

hosted by River of Drifting Through Life --

I'm fulfilling the Colour of the Month prompt

provided by Charlotte of MotherOwl's Musings.

This month's colour is Gold.

Here's a few photos of gold (or gilded) items

from my travels over the years --

1. Uffizi Gallery, Florence, Italy (2008)

A corridor ceiling overflowing with

golden-framed Renaissance paintings.

2. Brooklyn Public Library, New York (2009)

On one of its entrance columns, the Goddess Athena

with the Python of Delphi at her feet.

3. Coronation Chair, Westminster Abbey,

 London, England (2009)

The ancient Chair itself is wood, but

the four Lions supporting it are gilded.

The empty space just above the Lions is

where the Stone of Scone is placed

for the Coronation ceremony.

4. Temple of the Golden Pavilion,

Kyoto, Japan (2012)

This photo was taken from the back,

on the shore of the lake

which the Temple overlooks.

5. Sweet Cake Plate, Uji City, Japan (2012)

I was served this sweet cake

on a golden glazed ceramic plate

at the start of a Tea Ceremony.

What's YOUR Footwear Fetish?

No disrespect to the King, but at first

glance I thought he was wearing

scuba flippers.
