    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.

    Most desktops have a zoom feature in the lower right corner of the screen. It is typically set at 100% and has a little + and a down arrow. When Humungous pictures like this are posted, just change the zoom to 50% or customize to 35% as I did in this particular situation. But don't forget to change it back again to 100% or you will be in for a surprise.

    Balinese - yes. Monkey mask used for traditional dances. Can I borrow it for Mardi Gras?

    Here's my 2-cents worth. The first picture is a typical Balinese frog mask. The second picture is a typical Balinese monkey mask. (Balinese = Bali).

    I vote "Monkey"
