Musk ox invasion keeps Nome wildlife managers busy

Any objections to a special Blogger Edition of the Undead Thread in the same vein as the “Lecture Series”?

That second picture looks like something from the “Tremors” series.
Nothing is going to burst out of that, will it?

I need to eat lunch and then go to Walmart. Being out of Ziplock bags is making me edgy.

Ack! Don’t take care of your cold. Most people make that mistake. They’re like stray cats. Take care of them once and it’s almost impossible to get rid of them.

That’s why I always wait until I get to Wal-Mart to eat. They usually have what I want.

This place has rules?

Why did you invite me, then? I’m totally unruly.

That would make me edgy, too. You always have to buy the body parts a lot deeper to control the smell when you don’t have ziplocs.

HA!

They haven’t invented the security camera yet that has the stomach to hold my picture.

Have you ever seen a memory chip throw up?

Now this is another British plural trap.
Math....Maths
Pounds is referring to weight.
Pound ,even if used for a plural, is referring to money.
