LOVE the camo picture! How GREAT is that lizard!!

And omg, I pink puffy heart the fat ninjas. That made my day.

My pictures are up, and although I totally called you on your April Fool's ... I did all four words anyway.

Because I am a teacher's pet like that.

Must go check out overacheiver Moo right now.

I feel like an underachiever: only two photos, and each attempts to cover both rough AND smooth in one image!

mmmmm rum! now you got me drooling at work! Thanks, Tink!
Love that moss photo!
hey, my WWC is posted, come on by...

 
At 08 April, 2008, Blogger Jay said...

Mmmmmm Rum. Very smooth!

OMG! What is that ... that .. creature in that last pic?!? Do those things run wild around there? Keep the children and small animals inside if they do! LOL ;-)

"Naked Lady Mobile??" No. Way.

a couple of things: once again, your blog makes me miss little random things about fla. like the lizards. when i was a kid, id catch them and keep them in coffee cans for a couple of days as pets. then id let them go. can i make a special request? for one of your next pic opportunities, can you find a toad to photograph? i miss the toads, because, yes, you guessed it, they were my pets too... it's too cold up here for anything awesome like that to live *sigh*

2. is there a kind of run that doesnt make you want to drink it? i have not met that rum

You got an OMG outta me with the lizard. That is equivalent to picking something up in these parts and finding a spider. I just couldn't even imagine.

*shudder*

My pics are up,(after fussing with a new word dashboard) 19 to go and I'll have you a full set of dentures.
*wink wink*

Those Camo photographs are super cool! Very nice job on smooth and rough. I LOVE them both.

Mine are up. All four words :-). cause I'd do anything for spork points.

 
At 08 April, 2008, Blogger Lynnea said...

love the rough pic. i'm all about the moss.

as for that bug ring. did you see the price? who would pay that much, or anything for that matter, for something that hideous? And you know what? if you took the bug out of the whole thing, it would STILL be hideous!

 
At 08 April, 2008, Blogger Unknown said...

Love all the pictures! I managed something for all 4 words this week...can you kill a gal for wanting to earn a golden spork???

So, what you doing with that rum bottle when the alcohol is gone? My son collects unique bottles and I know he would love that. Just asking.

Hey everyone visit my WWC here:

That camo one was wicked cool. Nicely done. You totally rock.

Mine are up, and I have some bonus monksyshine ones at the end >:)

I am seriously impressed with the camo pic!

And that's some damn happy rum you've got there!

 
At 08 April, 2008, Blogger Karen said...

I need some Happy Rum. Where does one get such a drink?!
The camo took me a minute to see. Great picture.

Mine are up

and if you scroll down a few entries you'll see my better late than never entry for last week.

Love the moss and the lizard! I have never seen grapefruit buds, so that is really cool.

Mine are up - yes, all four words!

 
At 08 April, 2008, Blogger Farmer*swife a/k/a Glass_Half_Full said...

yea, so at first as I scrolled I thought that the shovel was cammo'ed against it's background.

Then I saw the lizard! Cool! (I too posted a reptile, wait...is a frog a reptile? I can't remember these things anymore) LOL! (Frogs are amphibians...I think that's it).

Nice rum pic too! All happy and smiley!

You mean overachievers might win something?!? How cool is that!?!

 
At 08 April, 2008, Blogger Chatty said...

Sheesh - NOW you tell me! I THOUGHT it was a joke, but...call me a sucker for a challenge. Am I the ONLY idiot who jumped on the first words and never looked back (or, more appropriately, back at Tink's site that day)? By the time I checked again, I was too far into planning for the silly words to turn back. Note to self - never trust Ms. Tink on April 1st (which luckily will not be a Tuesday next year...)

 
At 08 April, 2008, Blogger Christy said...

Not much smoother than happy rum.

 
At 09 April, 2008, Blogger Jenn @ Juggling Life said...

I have never managed to capture a lizard--that's great!

Mine is up.

Awww the Lizard is so sweet!! I love it. The Rum bottle is very cool! Well played as always!! :)

I'm in, I'm late, but I left you a signed "excuse" letter over at my place...

 
At 09 April, 2008, Blogger Tawcan said...

Great pics as always. :)

At 09 April, 2008, Blogger R.E.H. said...

Awsome pictures as always! Really love the Camouflage ones! I've always had a thing for those lizards...

...I failed to play (so far) this week... I promise to make up for my slacking!

Hellllo there. I left you a picture and an explanation on the postie today. You were very right, he looks like a headless cowboy... but with super sexy abs, no?

;p

 
At 09 April, 2008, Blogger Jo said...

I almost missed the lizard on the 1st shot, so cool! I just added stuffed ninjas to my blog sidebar the other day...now I'm wanting the cards.

The naked ladies--good lord. They're all pregnant & multi-cultural LOL! And the bug-fug? The reason it's $280 is so the artist can buy more crack!

 
At 09 April, 2008, Blogger Knight said...

I love lizards. Is that a shovel handle? Really cool shot. Speaking of shots... where can I get some of that rum?
Your etsy finds are fantastic as usual. If I could find a reason to have a mobile of naked ladies I would get it. Did you see the one made of scissors? Perfect for hanging over a crib.

Holy crap, that lizard picture is AWESOME.

So is the happy rum. ;)
