It’s time for me to officially make my presence known on Facebook. If you watch the awesome NBC comedy “The Office”, then you’ll understand the reference in the title of this blog post involving a creative Halloween costume worn by Jim Halpert, a character on my favorite show – it was hilarious!

Case in point, one of Escher’s most famous works, titled Relativity: Let me guess, even if you’ve never heard of M.C. Escher, you’ve seen the above picture, right? But have you ever
I had a little laugh out of these videos. Now let’s all forget about that dog-training stuff we all have read about or seen on Animal Planet and the like, and just imagine these dogs are as conservative as their humans. 😉 Okay, I tried to get you to suspend disbelief for a moment- did
