It was perhaps a little force, maybe obscure and not funny, but it was worth a shot.<br /><br /><br />Image via <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.desintationafrica.info">DestinationAfrica</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1134389147866485202-8693874258278102804?l=greetingsfromtheglobe.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>GreetingsFromtheGlobehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07171408776652357572noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134389147866485202.post-29403491843088270792009-01-28T08:40:00.000-08:002009-02-01T12:48:33.745-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.yannarthusbertrand.com/yann2/Sortie_HTML/img/fondecran/Faits/1024x768/TVDC/22d3af99a2920945906411ae073259af.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 250px;" src="http://www.yannarthusbertrand.com/yann2/Sortie_HTML/img/fondecran/Faits/1024x768/TVDC/22d3af99a2920945906411ae073259af.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><img src="http://api.photoshop.com/home_aad87739d207446f9c7401beb8646486/adobe-px-assets/f691e4b7a90a40e48b94af3ae8db426b" width="400" height="250"/><br /><br /><br />Image via <a href="www.yannarthusbertrand.com">yannarthusbertrand</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1134389147866485202-2940349184308827079?l=greetingsfromtheglobe.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>GreetingsFromtheGlobehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07171408776652357572noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134389147866485202.post-55450885654524325852009-01-28T03:50:00.000-08:002009-01-28T03:56:11.150-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://congorising.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/congo-river-border.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 250px;" src="http://congorising.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/congo-river-border.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://api.photoshop.com/home_aad87739d207446f9c7401beb8646486/adobe-px-assets/f4692684f8224212973234a1d624bcba" width="400" height="250"/><br /><br />Image via <a href="http://congorising.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/congo-river-border.jpg">congorising</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1134389147866485202-5545088565452432585?l=greetingsfromtheglobe.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>GreetingsFromtheGlobehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07171408776652357572noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134389147866485202.post-75404310321414461092009-01-25T07:12:00.000-08:002009-01-25T07:17:13.317-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.mnsi.net/~fmva/shop/prints/plu140i.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 403px; height: 282px;" src="http://www.mnsi.net/~fmva/shop/prints/plu140i.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://api.photoshop.com/home_aad87739d207446f9c7401beb8646486/adobe-px-assets/b526d8ee39964d459d12a549b17044c2" width="400" height="250"/><br /><br /><br /><br />Image via <a href="www.mnsi.net">Mnsi.net</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1134389147866485202-7540431032141446109?l=greetingsfromtheglobe.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>GreetingsFromtheGlobehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07171408776652357572noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134389147866485202.post-64885566882717903172009-01-21T17:52:00.000-08:002009-01-21T18:07:09.014-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.aseanaffairs.com/files/1772737/uploaded/Floating-market-thailand.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 250px;" src="http://www.aseanaffairs.com/files/1772737/uploaded/Floating-market-thailand.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://api.photoshop.com/home_aad87739d207446f9c7401beb8646486/adobe-px-assets/78420f4f59644b4ab6d2c499c1ee1bd0" width="400" height="250"/><br /><br /><br /><br />Image via <a href="http://www.aseanaffairs.com/files/1772737/uploaded/Floating-market-thailand.jpg">aseanaffairs</a><br /><br />This is not my best work.
