The Hat on the Hat on the Hat

I could understand if the title of this post makes you think I'm going to have Dr. Seuss as a guest blogger today, but in fact I am just fixing to prove Richard Bonomo wrong when he says Famous Hat does not wear hats. Here is a photo of Famous Hat wearing Infamous O'Derby, which is wearing Health Food Store Hat:



Here is a photo of Plant World, which is doing well during its second winter. You may notice a distinct lack of the larger plants noticeable in earlier images of Plant World, but they are still at Rich's house. Rich seems to have no issue with this living arrangement, and neither do they.




Here is an auxiliary area of Plant World, on top of the stereo cabinet I got from my OTHER choir director when he upgraded. (He has still not upgraded his TV, which has about a 6" screen and dates from the late 60's or early 70's, and which he claims used to belong to Sonny Bono.) These plants weren't naughty or anything; they're not sitting in the corner because they are in Time Out. They simply prefer less direct light. The palm tree belonged (belongs?) to Antoshka, who left it with Rich when he returned to Ukraine. Rich left it sitting out on the porch, where it got a little bit fried, since it's a parlor palm or neantha bella. They don't really like direct sunlight.



Here is the first spring blossom on one of my "Christmas" cacti. This one actually blooms around Thanksgiving and then again in the spring. It has a lot of buds on it, and the two Halloween cacti have lots of buds too, so maybe I will be able to post a photo sometime of all three of them blooming: this hot pink one, the pale pink one, and the red one.

And here, at the request of Toque McToque, is a movie of the flashing disco glass I got on my cruise during the Disco Party.
