They have problems being approached on dry land from the rear. Slow, kind of dumb, unable to look all the way around........
Hey, that sounds like the RNC!
Sounds more like Democrat voters to moi.
Gadzooks!
Ever hear of the Hockomock Swamp? It’s the originator of a lot of strange tales (A target=second HREF=”http://members.aol.com/soccorro64/btriangle.htm";>Hockomock Swamp</A>).
I used to live on the Cape and driving to work one morning on the highway in the swamp area encountered a traffic backup. This was back when there weren’t any backups in that area unless there was the rare accident.
This wasn’t an accident. I and all other drivers who saw it that moring will swear to you that mother snapper took up the better part of a lane and was heading north to who knows where. NO ONE wanted to hit it! I swear it was bigger than that one going over the fence.
LOL..I sent those jokes to the Newlyweds.
Did the mother snapper look like Hillary?
You silly bench... They just got married! Give them a few months..lol.
Baaaaaaaad Charky!
:-)
WOW!, you got some water all right. I must say...that park looks kind of pretty under water tho. ;)
We’re getting some well-needed rain today. Our across the street neighbors must love it, as she’s been trying to keep a newly seeded lawn wet.
My Grands are all bigger than me now, except for two. I will have to post a pic of Devin in a SUIT! LOL He’s twelve now, and his voice has changed. We never know who’s talking to us if we can’t see him. ;)
Heh heh heh.
I am a fountain of bad ideas.
H.G. Wells War of the Worlds?
Yes.
No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man’s and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. With infinite complacency men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their assurance of their empire over matter. It is possible that the infusoria under the microscope do the same.
That's our Hilly.
She even makes those near her puke.
You are a fountain of ideas, alright,...it’s like Rush says.....you never know who you influence.
;-)
You woulda been bored.
;-)
I’m hungry too.
Gotta go.
*HUG*
When I drew nigh the nameless city I knew it was accursed. I was traveling in a parched and terrible valley under the moon, and afar I saw it protruding uncannily above the sands as parts of a corpse may protrude from an ill-made grave. Fear spoke from the age-worn stones of this hoary survivor of the deluge, this great-grandfather of the eldest pyramid; and a viewless aura repelled me and bade me retreat from antique and sinister secrets that no man should see, and no man else had dared to see.
Remote in the desert of Araby lies the nameless city, crumbling and inarticulate, its low walls nearly hidden by the sands of uncounted ages. It must have been thus before the first stones of Memphis were laid, and while the bricks of Babylon were yet unbaked. There is no legend so old as to give it a name, or to recall that it was ever alive; but it is told of in whispers around campfires and muttered about by grandams in the tents of sheiks so that all the tribes shun it without wholly knowing why. It was of this place that Abdul Alhazred the mad poet dreamed of the night before he sang his unexplained couplet:
That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons death may die.
H.P. Lovecraft.
