As Bart Simpson once said, "Knife goes in, guts come out."

"Prince Wolfram is the betrothed of mad Queen Regina V of Kronberg. Supreme ruler, her word is law and he is a playboy. On maneuvers as punishment for partying with other women, he sees Kelly walking the other students of a convent. He is intrigued by her beauty and wants her. He kidnaps her that night from the convent and takes her to his room and professes his love for her. When the Queen finds them together the next morning , she whips Kelly and throws her out of the castle. Regina then puts Wolfram into prison for not wanting to marry the Queen. Kelly goes to German East Africa to visit her dying Aunt and is forced to marry the disgusting Jan. The Aunt dies after the wedding and Kelly refuses to live with Jan and becomes the head of Aunties Brothel. Her extravagances and style earn her the name 'Queen Kelly' and Prince Wolfram does not marry Queen Regina V. Corner of jacket has a small punch hole."

Abandoned snow sculpture. Too powdery:


FOLLOWUP: The dead tree fell over some time in the early fall. The shrubs near it have either died or been cut back. I have been dumping espresso grounds all around and I have yet to rake 2004's leaves.

If I get home before dark, I'll have pics home snow.
