A New Jersey family was forced to clothe its snow image of Venus de Milo. If you dare look at the original, take this link or this one.

Maria Conneran and her family had worked hard to create their armless, nude snow lady in the front garden of their home in Rahway, New Jersey.
But despite several compliments on their chilly version of the Venus de Milo, the family were forced to cover up her blushes after complaints from other residents.

The policeman was apologetic after asking the family to dress the snow lady, she said.

I’ve been waiting a year or three to visit NYC’s High Line. It’s an abandoned elevated rail line (where the subway emerges into daylight) that was converted into a park. Workers are extending the first section to the north.

As always, geocaching takes a person to such interesting places. This piece of the Berlin Wall is tucked inside a little park/lunch spot in between the big buildings of Manhattan.

I thought You Tube Annotations came on automatically. Apparently you have to turn them on by holding down the triangle icon at the far right of the bar at the bottom of the You Tube display. Once it’s held down, move up to the top selection where it will say “Turn on Annotations.”

Why do singers lose their accents when they sing? A Minnesota TV station looked into the matter. Warning: the page opens with loud audio.
