June Topics: Shelter Cats, Carribean Heritage, Fathers, Gay Pride, and Men

June is here so summer is coming soon. Not today though. What topics other than moving, selling dolls and accessories, and improving my photography skills will I cover - time permitting? Here's my short list:

Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat Month
 
Caribbean-American Heritage Month

Father's Day

Gay Pride Month

International Men's Month

As usual, I retain the right to bring up other matters ... like June brides, etc. Or short rambles about similar face sculpts. I used to think that Carnival Barbie and High School Musical Tiara Gold had the same face mold. Havilland Parker believes that they are different. So I photographed the two AND checked their head markings. Well, the markings differ. 


Carnival Barbie's head is stamped: ©2003 on the top line and MATTEL, INC. on the second line

Tiara Gold's head is stamped: ©2008 MATTEL on one line

Here they are together.

What do you think? Separated at birth? Or do they look different?
