My First Scavenger Outing!

The word, function, was chosen by 3GirlKnight.

Skipping the math meanings - function, noun, an activity or purpose natural to or intended for a person or thing.

The function of a mother is:

 to love, cherish and protect her child.



The function of a blogger is:

to provide an on-going narrative.




The function of a songerwriter is:

to write a good ass song.



The function of an artist is :

to comment on the world inside of them


Old Man in Sorrow - Vincent Van Gogh


or outside of them.




The function of a film maker is:

to make a perfect film



or at least a perfect scene.

Which is the scene in the Big Lebowski where we first meet The Jesus .  Eight year olds, Dude!



Thank you for viewing my first scavenger hunt!

  12. I won't take it personally that you chose to leave out function as it pertains to math.

  16. Tara - Thanks! And thank you for visiting!

    Billy - I checked - they're just fish. Have you tried feeding them? Click on the curser and they get fed - and unlike real fish - I don't think you can kill them by overfeeding. Thanks for visiting!
