Scotty: "I don't know. How am I feeling?"
Beverly: "Other than a few bumps and bruises I say you feel fine for a man of 147."
Scotty: "And I don't feel a day over a hundred and twenty."
I think I know the feeling...
To borrow a phase from Commander Data from Star Trek, the Next Generation, I've not been "functioning within established parameters" lately. I've gotten behind and sporadic with commenting on other's blogs. I'm not sure what's at fault or what to blame. I guess I could use some of those built-in Androidal self-diagnosis routines Mr. Data has some days. At any rate - I was sent some curious photographs lately, and thought I'd share.
I got this photo from This Mom's Many Hats and altered it only slightly (and in no important detail) and was left pondering, "Why would a cone cross the street? Are they on the way to the ski lift? Do they snowboard in a half pipe?"
Mysterious business isn't it? What could they be up to? Do cones go to the movies? I know they go to outdoor rock concerts and country fairs - but in the dead of winter? Did they understand they might have been trespassing?
I got this photo (and the next one) from Martha of The Daily Grind. Obviously the trespassing cones upset this landowner. The mystery thickens... I do hope the cones went home via some other route.
Ah, well, who could resist a hot fresh triangular slice of pizza with a side of diet Pepsi (or Coke or Dr Pepper or even Fresca).

I loved the pics Iggy, this post definitely made me laugh, thanks HUGS
PS, its ok to get behind, don't beat yourself up over it :o)
Indeed, why do cones cross the street?! LOL funny stuff :)
Nice to see you're keeping that imagination of yours in top form!
for some reason when i saw the pictures, i said "awwwwww" to myself. there's just something cute about them- like little ducks in a row!
Kudos on the imagination! I knew you'd be good for a cute story.
They do look like ducks in a row.
Those cones are sly ones. Ever see Toy Story where the toys are alive, move and talk only when humans aren't around. Cones are like that. They get around, I tell ya.
Lol! Maybe they were crossing the road to come visit Cappy!
They are walking to Missouri! Hey man, just hang in there. When you comment, I am thrilled. I know every one feels the same.
The only thing better than a comment from you is a post from you :)
I think I saw Cappy in the middle of those cones. Ok, maybe not...
Huge hugs!
loved the no trespassing cone one, but all were cute. I think our cones in the city have gone on vacation or maybe are on strike since I haven't seen many sightings lately; I'll have to keep my eyes opened
never worry if you get behind or are not commenting on blogs; I keep saying "they are always there" and sure enough "they are always there". Sometimes it is hard to get into the mood to read or to comment
just take care of yourself; I'm sure there's a lot going on, hope it settles down reasonably well soon to your favor and advantage
betty
We all feel off once in a while. Keeping up online is a constant challenge of mine--and I am very seldom caught up with everything. Don't worry about it. So nice to have friends who send you cone pictures to ponder over and give you a smile. ;) Yummm! Pizza sounds good! :)
Unfortunately, the high unemployment has affected the cones. There have been massive layoffs in IL, and the cones all went elsewhere looking for work. Maybe you could go to Washington to lobby for cone rights, so they receive their fair share from the stimulus bills.
I think they are staging a walk out.
Make it a Coke Zero, and we got a deal!
Good Morning. Checking blogs quickly before it's off to work I go! Take care! Glad to see my cone hunting shots were blog worthy!!!!
I don't think you will ever run out of clever things to say about these little cones!
I'll take mine with Dr. Pepper please!!
Cute photos!
Sorry you're feeling blah...a lot of that goin' around. Wanna scream and yell at AT&T for me today??? Or file my taxes?? No???? Rats....
We may never know why a cone would want to cross the street. One of those mysteries that will keep us in conversation for years and years. :)
*hugs*
Hang in there, Iggy! And don't worry about getting behind. Though we all love comments and posts for you, we also understand that sometimes you can't be around to post. *Hugs*
Why did the cones cross the road? Hmm... The possible answers to that one are infinate. It could be simply to get to the other side. They may have wanted to be chickens for the day. Or, they may have just needed to cross in order to get to the pizza place. We may never know for sure.
That should have read "from you" not "for you" but you probably figured that.
I'm with you on the not operating within normal parameters thing. I have been sick for a week and don't feel like doing anything.
Those cones look cold sitting outside in the snow.
Where are their coats and mittens? LOL.
These photos are great! Who wouldn't want to get out of the cold and make their way towards a slice of pizza?
Take care of yourself.
But more importantly, they're lined up so nicely. So patiently. What good little cones.
*shaking me head in dispair* LOL
