Very difficult to make 'straight', so...Step up and help yourself to a slice of the pie.

The dog in the Lazy-Boy is a Fine addition... I hope the X-Mas lights still work, And keep him Company at Night!! I'd make suggestions in Regard to Reparations, but, grabbing Another Coor's light would be Easier...

I'm thinking by the time one reads the Beware Of Dog sign it is to late ... The Junkyard dog is on you ! Of course unless he decides to continue his nap. We've never considered hanging Moss from Christmas lights ... perhaps this year ? Think about it .
Love the composition and the colors.
Well done!

I would like to see Caedes introduce a PhotoJournalism category...this picture does not show a normal situation by any means, but still it can symbolize how tough life can be in America these days.

It's like tobacco row. I saw that beware sign too. I wonder if it's a bluff. Who would bother breaking in there? All I can say is it looks well used. Just be careful when you're in these neighborhoods.

Oh my goodness! I wonder what it's like to live in there! I'll bet you would need to put shims under all of your furniture to keep it from sliding into the center of the house! Cool and unusual find and great shot of it Dan-o.

I don't think you will see either one of the Presidential Candidates using this photo to advertise the prosperity that exists in America.
I have wanted a Photojournalism Category for years.
Compelling photo, Lt. Dan.

What a find Dan!:)Hey, lets give credit where credit is due.Looks like the owner has the extension cord out readying himself for some home improvement project much to the relief of his neighbors:):)

I like this...I could see myself in this setting with a cool hippie/artist woman in a long dress by my side...

Wishful thinking, though...Possibly will wind up in a Scooby-Doo type haunted abode with a Lily Munster/Morticia Addams looking witch...

Nice one...Thanks for sharing...

I just get so filled with envy when I see someone that has a better Lazy-Boy than mine. Must be nice a livin' in the lap of luxury!

An excellent photo here my Friend. You do have a tendency to 'bring back the good ol' days.'..and in this shot, you have captured REAL LIFE and it is a BEAUTIFUL image...as always, great work.

Nice photo, lots of stories here. Perhaps the extension cord is borrowing power from the neighbors?

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Dan - With a big sign warning of the dog, you want me to step up on the porch? Though that lounge chair on the porch looks mighty inviting! ;-) Thad
