except when the guy is “singing.”

Was that what he was doing???

Ida never guessed.

Ida by the way is a small town in Michigan situated on Ida Maybee Road sort of southeast of Dundee. You can celebrate Christmas in Ida if you want.

Not to be confused with Ada, which is a small town in Ohio named after Ada Johnson, the postmaster's daughter, situated a little North of McGuffey, and whose main claim to whatever fame it garners is that it is home to Ohio Northern University...

There’s an Ada in Oklahoma, too. Ada (or Adah) was one of the two wives of Lamech, the Bible’s first recorded polygamist. The second wife was Zillah.

[NicknamedBob]

So this guy Lamech knew polygamy from A to Z. Right?

[Tax-chick]

And nothing in between.

[NoCmpromiz]

Yep, but Ada, OK is about three times the size of Ada, OH.. and probably more people have heard of Ada, OK than have of Ida, MI and Ada, OH combined... ;-)

Hmmm... I mentioned Michigan. Do I need to ping cripplecreek? Wonder if he's ever been to Ida... ;-)

[cripplecreek]

I don’t believe I’ve ever been to Ida but it is considerably larger than the town I live in.

Semivivisepulture

Partially buried alive?

[NoCmpromiz]

Mmmmmmm.... Squirrel!!

[Tax-chick]

In this case, on the way to being buried alive, but showed signs of life before that happened.

[moose07]

That was lucky.
Being buried alive can totally ruin your whole day.

In this case, on the way to being buried alive, but showed signs of life before that happened.^{. . . I'm not dead . . .}

[Tax-chick]

Being buried alive can totally ruin your whole day.

That's the point of the Vivisepulture Ping List. If you don't make it to the grave at all (like the not-so-late, just cold-blooded, dragon Santana), it's semivivisepulture. If you get partially buried, it's vivisemisepulture.

The only problem with that recipe is it doesn’t state Red or Grey Squirrel.

[NoCmpromiz]

And about five times the size of the bumpintheroad that I grew up in in that state with the small school that will be playing MiState in two weeks probably for the Big10 title... (seeing as how Ann Arbor seems to have totally lost its game this year.. ;-)

Actually been through Ida while wandering through the back woods west of Monroe. And I wasn't even drunk then... ;-)

[cripplecreek]

I grew up in a little down called Hanover Mi.

[NoCmpromiz]

doesn’t state Red or Grey Squirrel.

Once it's in the pot most folks can't tell... ;-)

[moose07]

The only thing left to do with this new word is to discover how to pronounce it.....it needs to be used more often, at inopportune moments etc. :)

[NoCmpromiz]

Ah yes, just a tad West of Napoleon, er, Wolf Lake. Spent some weekends there way back when.. perfecting my splash as my friend tried to whiplash me out of the water skis..

[moose07]

That is a good thing.
The sources of Red Squirrel are few and far between.
They are protected as well...
Brownsea island next week....have cooking pot will travel. :)
