Traveling nearly 800 miles per week gives me many opportunities to witness and photograph the strangest of events. Some of those would never make the local newscast, let alone the newspaper. Thus, it seems my duty to describe and share this "Nearly Newz" with the public.

Redneck Fenceline...
The beginning of a "fenceline" on highway 171, just use a trunklid or hood for a gate. May 11, 2005: Was by there today and these two cars are gone now!!
"Hey, hello! Anyone home?? You want to roll one of those barrels out here to the street for me??? I'll fold up the five dollar bill and fly it to you!" (...the bottom is about to fall out of barrel sales)
This counseling 'complex' is in Grove, OK. The smaller "Child Therapy" office kind of reminds me of the sidewalk stand that Lucy operated in the "Peanuts" comic strip.
Here's a photo puzzle for you. This old fuel station is home to a decorative brick/stone company in Coffeyville, KS. Search the photo for a man on a bicycle. If you can't spot him, click on the "COMMENTS" link for the answer, but you have to let me know how long you looked!
I may not be the best at mathmatics, but there seems to be a breach of security here. For this reason, I won't disclose the location of this trailer. It doesn't show, but the rear bumper is still about 8" off the ground. Do you see a problem?
Here it is! A fine example of "raising the bar" shot recently by Brian Brennfoerder. This series of brick walls is in front of an apartment complex. Thanks for all your submissions! (A few were disqualified as they were not actually photographed by the submitter.)

Really, what could be interesting about me? My career of 30+ yrs has been convenience store related. Presently, I am selling fixtures and equipment and doing c-store design. Part-time, I am a sales manager at a Joplin location of the nation's 7th largest c-store chain. Before a brief career with Walgreens, I had supervised 5 salesmen in the Joplin area for a wholesale supplier. My first major career was with a dominant c-store chain in the midwest. Generally, I am creative, somewhat humorous, fun to be with and I love my family and the quirks of the English language. My computer is my friend, and I have over 300 frisbees. After 29 years, I have been divorced since fall of 2007. We have had great family vacations! I would also like to write a book of everything that I've ever written. (Hey, I'm done already!) I've invented about 100 things, patented zero, so someone else has always taken them to market before me and made millions, I'm sure. My family and friends are of great importance to me. Thanks for looking, feel free to email me or comment!
