Pipe and No Panties – A Blog Meme for Photos Nikolaidis

A plurk conversation yesterday sparked a conversation where Photos Nikolaidis declared that EVERYONE SHALL WEAR PIPES tomorrow. It was then decided it’d be Pipes with no Panties.

So then, here you go.

My idea for this pic was “Wearing his shirt and holding his pipe, wishing he would come home.”

I was wandering about on Christmas Eve enjoying the quiet as I visited a few sims. I stopped at Alirium and wandering among the trees I came across an elk.

I was once closer than this to an elk. I was deer hunting with my brothers, standing post on the side of a meadow while my older brother walked through the woods making noise so the deer would flee in our general direction. I heard a soft huff behind me and turned slowly and right across the old logging road, about 8 feet away was an old elk. You could see he was an ancient of the forest, far too old and tough for good venison. We looked at each other, both of us still and silent, and stood there hushed for what felt like several minutes but in the relativity of time may have been only seconds. After a bit, he made another huffing sound and walked quietly away. Later I showed my brothers his tracks and told them about how magical it was and they were thrilled for me. People often ask why I didn’t shoot him, though my brothers never did. They, like me, thought he had earned his peaceful passage.

Vintage Fair is on its last week and time is running out for you vintage lovers to enjoy this unprecedented collection of fashions of the past.

You could have a great career,
And you should;

Way too good!

If you want a future, darlin’,
Why don’t you get a past?
‘Cause that fateful moment’s comin’ at last…
