Lovely FOX TERRIER DOG MAXIMUM CARD MAXICARD CARTE MAXIMUM Romania

This kind of dog could be a very lovely pet. :)

"Fox Terriers are 'jumpy' dogs - they enjoy jumping onto surfaces and into people's arms. They enjoy being hugged and carried, whether this is considered to be healthy for them or not. They can also be quite dozy, possibly due to short-sightedness, as they do not always follow balls well. They are tenacious but generally gentle animals who bark simply for attention. Fox Terriers tend to get along well with other animals, including cats and dogs."

I didn't create this maximum card, and the back of the postcard doesn't mention the dog breed. I guess the postcard doesn't show a purebred fox terrier. What do you think?

Non-FIP maximum card: Santa Claus

I saw somewhere a T-shirt inscribed: "Hey, Santa! How much for your list of naughty girls?"

Why is Santa saying "Shhh!..."? Or his index is just preaching, away from his lips?

Cate Blanchett has gone postal...philatelic, too! Now she's unavailable [her maxicard, that is] from Australia Post

I am re-posting above images from saphilatelist at stampboards.com.

"This card is not a maximum card but a prepaid postcard. It differs from the maximum card as the 'stamps' are actually images printed as part of the card design. On the maximum cards the 'stamps' are real stamps affixed to the card and postmarked. "

"And here is the address side showing the postage prepaid imprint."

I like all these 4 Australian-born(/raised?) actors, and I salute this initiative of Australia Post.
Another very innovative and open-minded post is Austria Post - I'll post soon about their stamp with meteorite particles incorporated, etc. :)

Cate Blanchett is very versatile - an actress with the proven capability of playing pretty much any type of roles. Plus atypical roles.
Also, I saw a glimpse of her deliciously sharp wit when she outwitted Jay Leno (anagram: JAY LENO = LEAN JOY) on his show.
Instead of telling Jay explicitly that he is "crazy" [she was joking in a light-hearted manner], she smiled and told him slowly, in an apparently innocent tone: "Jay, you could see somebody about this..." [for professional help].

Cate, I really appreciate you and your artistic work in movies, theater, etc.
But I guess that many bimbomaniac spectators don't fully notice and comprehend your unique magnitude of artistic personality.

Best wishes to you and yours! :)
