There is pink.

But there is also orange.

Shed a tear for the orange and its desperate problems.

traditionalguy म्हणाले...: Those are strange shaped carrots. Is that a special Wisconsin vegetable? Whatever it is, the color is a fall color. The leaves are at their color peak in the Smokies this weekend I am told. Hopefully they will still be there next weekend when we walk all the trails in and around the Bryson City/Hemlock Inn area.; २४/१०/०९, ६:०४ PM

The orange has desperate problems? What problems?; २४/१०/०९, ७:५५ PM

Hector Owen म्हणाले...: I suppose, if one were to make a ceramic porringer, and glaze it the color of those carrots, and set it on the table with other things that did not include carrots, or yams, or (of course) oranges, that one could then proudly say, "Nothing is oranger than my porringer!"

Still, nothing rhymes with "orange." Now, if that porringer had a flange … no, the "a" would still be different.; २४/१०/०९, ९:२० PM
lucid म्हणाले...: This is clearly a very penetrating (???!!!!) photographic comment: While women (pink) are to be carefully considered, the photographer also feels concern for the tribulations of men and their special appendages.; २४/१०/०९, ९:२९ PM

Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: Why is there a ribbon for feral cats but not feral dogs?

I think it's more important to be aware of feral dogs because they could kill you.

Feral cats, not so much. You could probably throw a crazy cat away from you if it attacked you. Man > cat.; २४/१०/०९, ९:५० PM
अनामित म्हणाले...: Self Injury Ribbons

Somehow I never thought of that as a "cause" requiring the ribbon treatment.

Yeah, yeah, keep it to yourself.

Oh, who am I kidding, I don't give a sh*t about football.

You are talking about football, right?; २४/१०/०९, १०:३७ PM

Chip Ahoy म्हणाले...: This post has no meaning!

Just like everything else on this blog -- meaningless.

Just like my life has no meaning. Except for the meaning I give it by spending time here noting your abject absence of meaning and returning regularly and reaffirming that observation and then setting aside my other meaninglessness to take the time and effort to remark on your meaninglessness, even so far as to bother with a CAPTCHA to do it. Yes, that's right, my remark on your meaningless blog does have meaning although I assert your blog that I make the remark on does not.

But then I wouldn't recognize meaning if it jumped up and bit my penis. I do not understand photography or art or getting out and seeing my city or recording it with my own unique eye and through my own lens, or forests or farmers market or flower boxes, animals or odd things in nature or within human constructions. They're meaningless to me! Now, start being meaningful Goddamnit! And give me something meaningful to foul.

Then my other self says,

I once had a careless carrot patch. There was loose tilled dirt directly under an air conditioner that dripped steadily throughout the hot summer directly onto that patch of dirt, so watering was automatic. I had a packet of carrot seeds that I broadcast into the soil and, being an ordinary kid, didn't pay much attention to them thereafter, just checked back occasionally. The plants are beautiful at every stage of development, more so because they were not arranged in tight farmerly rows. At first the foliage looks like delicate little green feathers, then lacy ferns, then they expand, fill in, and strengthen to proper deep dark green carrot tops. The bright orange carrot roots were delicious.; २४/१०/०९, ११:०० PM

Kurt म्हणाले...: Orange is my favorite color, and carrots are my favorite vegetable--but after all of the carrots I've eaten, I'm beginning to tire of the carrot routine. But those maroon carrots that Leland linked to do look pretty nice. I wonder how or where one would get some of those.; २५/१०/०९, १:०८ AM
LoafingOaf म्हणाले...: These are gross looking carrots. They look like fucked up fingers or pathetic penises or something. Ick.

I have a question. Why is everything that Obama says or does horribly wrong to Althouse and her commenters, yet Dick Cheney is such a hero the Althouse world wants to build him a statue in Madison? Is Obama really that awful and Cheney really that righteous? Or is this blog getting carried away by the right wing?; २५/१०/०९, ५:२३ AM

The best vegetable is asparagus, IMHO.; २५/१०/०९, ५:२५ AM
Bissage म्हणाले...: I find myself disappointed that Loafing Oaf didn’t post a link to his blog where we’d all find his twelve point plan specifying what each and every one of us should do to make Althouse so very much better than it is.; २५/१०/०९, ७:४५ AM
