Pictures of Lilly!

a ball of earwax and cilia behind it.

Brent ayon kay ...

Is it just me, or . . (blush) . . .

J. Cricket ayon kay ...

What do I see?

An aging law professor who craves attention.

Gahrie ayon kay ...

A can of vanila frosting with a peanut M&M in the middle.

Albatross ayon kay ...

Billowing sheets surrounding a small, yellow brain.

Meade ayon kay ...

A velvety white spathe surrounding the tip of a small, yellow spadix.

EnigmatiCore ayon kay ...

I see a jerk with no manners with a healthy smattering of hypocrisy (hint- one should never cast aspersions about craving attention when posting like a troll).

But then, I was looking at the comments, ajd, not at the front page.

MadisonMan ayon kay ...

A Stage Door.

Jennifer ayon kay ...

I see a lit window in a snowy valley.

Christy ayon kay ...

Just the top half of the pic without scrolling down. Definately soft serve from the DQ.

Ruth Anne Adams ayon kay ...

Holy smokes! It's Georgia O'Keefe's Calla Lily Turned Away.

Calla me a fool, but I'd start charging monet for this stuff.

I think B (8:04 PM comment) and I are on the same page... Filthy minds both.

David53 ayon kay ...

Chickenlittle is half right. It is a ball of earwax but it's in the ear of a rare albino Vulcan. Vulcans don't have cilia in their ear canals.

Dust Bunny Queen ayon kay ...

Clitoris.

What? You know some of you were thinking it.

Zeb Quinn ayon kay ...

A little man in a boat.

chickelit ayon kay ...

The moment of natural childbirth?

please do tell

Chip Ahoy ayon kay ...

I see Georgia O'keefe all over the place. If only it were 5' X 5'. Second, I see a potential for a careless stain.

Drew W ayon kay ...

Boy, I feel like such a pollyanna for thinking it looks like an abstract madonna and child. But I was a mediocre art history student at best.

Or maybe I just wish I'd come up with dave's comment. (Bravo!)

Thers ayon kay ...

Loved your post at Simels' place.

How much do you drink, anyway?

Mr.Murder ayon kay ...

Siddartha is supposed to tell us what he didn't see...

Hindi-nagpakilala ayon kay ...

Well, one could look at this picture from the Freudian, or alternatively, the Advertisian point of view.

Freud, of course, would see virginity.

The Advertisian would see the requirement that all Pajamas Media bloggers must post a specific number of posts in a given time period, in order to maintain Google Page Rank points.

Me ... I just see a nice flower.

bill ayon kay ...

Soft boiled egg on wilted spinach. Or a little man in a boat. I'm good with either.

Unknown ayon kay ...

Oh my! This photo makes me blush :)

Too many jims ayon kay ...

I see an onion ring distorted by a vortex or a vortex being distorted by an onion ring.

AllenS ayon kay ...

It's an onion ring with a piece of carrot in it.

Just a reminder: don't put tomatoes and cucumbers in the same bag.

Roger J. ayon kay ...

Riffing off Meade: some times a velvety white spathe surrounding the tip of a small, yellow spadix is just a A velvety white spathe surrounding the tip of a small, yellow spadix.

Terri ayon kay ...

My first impression was of good ol' Mr. Softee

Even though I keep coming back and looking at it, I get the same sweet memory of childhood summers and our favorite treat.... Freud would be so disappointed in me.

Peter Hoh ayon kay ...

I vaguely recall that Mr. Softee ice cream was kind of bland and had lousy texture. We preferred the Good Humor truck. Better music on the Good Humor truck, too.

My fav soft serve ice cream these days is from Culver's. They, of course, would prefer that I called it frozen custard. Whatever.

Ann Althouse ayon kay ...

In Madison, it's Michael's Frozen Custard. Far beyond Culver's.

Ruth Anne Adams ayon kay ...

I, for one, won't miss that Madison oneupsmanship when you go to Brooklyn.

Peter Hoh-ho-ho: This is no yolk...Custard contains egg or egg product. Ice cream usually does not.

Brent ayon kay ...

. . . except French vanilla ice cream.

MadisonMan ayon kay ...

Michael's Frozen Custard is way too expensive. Sure, if you have $20 to blow, it's good. But in the summer, you sit in the heat and contemplate a custard that quickly becomes a soup.

But I do like their Cherry Soda.

Ann Althouse ayon kay ...

Michael's does melt fast! Probably lacking some additive... If you get a cone, trying to keep it from dripping can distract you from the taste.

IT'S THE PLANT! THE PLANT THAT'S EATING THE YELLOW THING SO THE CREEPS DON'T GET IT! KEEP SAFE FROM THE CREEPS!!

(For those that don't get it, just see here. Eggagog is a running joke among some of us.)
