Dear RedState.com (cross-posted),

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Ryan Larsen. I’m a truth lover, chess player and avid political junkie. I co-founded....

OK, here is the point where the mods step in... Originally this Pro-Romney troll went on for about twenty thousand words about how wonderful Romney is and how everyone else sucks. You get the picture. He wrote it to our friends at RedState but posted it here. I take it, probably because he met the same fate there as he just did here. We the mods will save you from all that boredom and just allow you to point and laugh. Carry on.

YOIKS!

No, Sis, I don’t recall you telling my about Cobroxin. If it works, I will try it. Is it something I need to order from CA?

Survived another Cub Scouts meeting. They were all loud. Bill and Tom have safely returned; I assume they ate hamburgers. Whether the youth group earned any money, deponent knoweth not. It probably depends on how many other teenagers were there. (Tom says they earned a lot of money while eating hamburgers.)

Anoreth says she’s going to be a small-arms instructor at Cape May for her next post. I guess they figure she’ll be a good influence on new recruits, *snicker*. They’ll all end up right-wing nutcases reciting the Sagas as they go down with the ship.

[LibreOuMort]

Ditto that! Anoreth ROCKS!!!!

Needs a soundtrack...

... or this...

...or this...

[HKMk23]

I usually like the less-famous actors.

Izzat different than liking the more infamous ones?

[Tax-chick]

Yes, it is quite different. And how are you today?

[Tax-chick]

See #522 for the next stirring episode!

If you posted them in your house, you wouldn’t have room for wallpaper.

We can't post them anywhere if you stop posting them here. </ham-handed hint>

"We can't post them anywhere if you stop posting them here."

As you wish.

Salt From The Sea

The aged sailor staggered some, as earth betrayed his gait,
In staying in the place it was, while his reflex would wait,
To let the next wave heave it up, and then upon its crest,
He'd safely plant his weary foot, for half-a-second's rest.

He made his way unsurely, a lifetime to unlearn,
He had some gold to last a while. How slow to make it burn?
Upon the sea he'd come of age, from stripling youth back then,
How should he set upon the world, a new world once again?

His hair had grown all frosty, from standing watch at sea,
The sturdy leather of his skin was cured as it could be,
Perhaps the first place he might stop, to calm his flowing mane,
A barber shop, to cut back on his locks so grown full-rein.

Retirement driven, he would spend his days upon the shore,
Though questing there, his tunneled stare would view the sea no more,
And in this small thing he stood out, like some strange-tongued foreigner,
T'was best to shed his locks so dread, the rime of the ancient mariner.

Dragon-Baby is eating up to 20 crickets a day.

Time to start a cricket ranch.

[Tax-chick]

Last year some crickets moved in under the rocks in Santana’s cage (he’s the big dragon) and started reproducing. There were about 50 when we cleaned them out, made the chameleon very happy.

Biofreezw is an OTC topical. Should be legal there....

[TheOldLady]

LOL! That's great!

Yeah, I got sea legs a couple of times. It's a side-effect of having friends with sailboats and spending long weekends sailing to Catalina Island and back, and living on the boat when there.

After one particularly long stay, Hubby and I had to go to the bank, and standing in line, I was swaying back and forth. Dang sea legs!

And I refuse to dye my hair, so I also have the rime of the ancient mariner, LOL!

I love that poem!

[TheOldLady]

What time is your CT scan tomorrow? I wanted to bid you best wishes for good news.

[Tax-chick]

Sea-legs I have never had, but I have the hair, too!

[TheOldLady]

You cleaned the crickets out? Didn't save any for breeding stock?

I had insectivorous plants for a while, Venus Fly Trap and Pitcher Plant. A cricket fell into the Pitcher Plant, but it ate its way out through the side and got away. Feisty little things.

But when we got Mad Man Muffin the Cat, that was the end of the crickets. He loved crickets so much that we barely had to feed him his kibble.

[Tax-chick]

I just can’t bring myself to breed insects. Dragons love roaches, too, but I would die. They also eat tomato worms, so we’ll be fixed next summer!

Our cats eat crickets if they find them on the floor, or at least they look at them and tells us about it. Then we can retrieve them for the reptiles!

It’s at 0915 PST. Thanks for the thoughts!

I have claustrophobia, so this is going to be a real “test.” I hope they give me a happy pill to chew...
