Rotarians Listen to the Speaker in Different Ways

Everyone has their specific level of attention at the Rotary meeting. Here is a sample of those various levels of attentiveness in action.

Rotarians Sing a Few Bars of the Tax Code

Andrew Bournos Jr., a tax specialist, decided to lead our Rotary club in a song pulled right out of the infamous IRS Tax Code. As with their tax returns, they sang it reluctantly, off key, and with limited enthusiasm.

Below 32 Degrees

This is the work of the editor's 19 year old grandson, Joshua. He likes working in the cold.

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

Even plants have an interest in their appearance. This photo was taken by the editor's 13 year old grand daughter, Erin. She's turning into a pretty decent photographer.

Man of Steel in a Daffodil

By solarizing this photo of a daffodil, I discovered Superman. Who would think he was hiding in the center of a flower? But I guess he can hide where ever he wants. A flower is as nice a place as anyone could care for. It looks like, however, that some vicious bug used kryptonite to rip his cape in two.

Water Arch

Is this a water spout from a fresh water whale? Is this a fountain in a lake? Or is this water being blown out by a very large fish? Well, it's none of these. Make a guess. Hint: It is a rather hairy thing.

Dogs Who Shovel Snow

Some dogs fetch the paper. Other dogs can catch a frizbee. Our dogs shovel snow.

Find The Deer

Deer are not always easy to spot. Here is a "find Waldo" type challenge--only it is a "find Bambi" exercise instead. Good luck.

Try Plugging It In If It Fails To Work

Rotarians are really quite intuitive. Take, for example, the projector that failed to work. Above we see Executive Larry Marsicano claiming that he came very close to solving his projector problem just before Jane Didona solved it by plugging the device in. Kudos to Jane Didona for solving Larry's vexing problem allowing his presentation to go ahead.

A Bad Note

Did you ever play in a band, and have the person next to you hit a really discordant note? Well, this happened to the young man at the left. The fellow at the right keeps his cool, and acts as if nothing happened--he's the real trooper.

American Indian Art By Mother Nature

Notice the tipis reflecting in the water. Nice touch. I think mother nature likes doing American Indian art.

Even NJ Has Its Images Of Jesus

Yes, even New Jersey has its icons. Here is one of them.

Polution In River City

This sad scene was shot in a river emptying into Lake Ontario, in upstate New York. I often wondered how the little tykes, faithfully following their mother through the foamy scum, made it. Not funny, is it?

Kids Can Be Cute

Things happen when you trust a steamroller to two little kids.

Suspended Animation

I shot this photo of my daughter, Regan, years ago at our summer place in Maine. The water was cold, but the motivation was not. I think she was saying "Geronimo," as she sailed to splash down.

Autumn In New England

Autumns in New England are beautiful, but it is difficult taking a picture of an autumn tree without a church ending up in the background.

Porta Potty Pic

When the clouds are unique, one has to look for an appropriate subject to set off the scene. The only thing missing is a satisfied customer leaving one of the booths.
