My husband saw today what he swears was a ‘woolly bear’ caterpillar (Pyrrharctia isabella) – but it had no brown band, it was all black. I suggested to him that it might be another species that looks similar, but he was adamant – he grew up in rural Central Pennsylvania, and this time of year they saw them all over the place, and he denies that its spines were anything like those of the Giant Leopard or any other one around these parts that we could find pictured. The legend is that the width of the brown bar on the...

We stand at the doorway of a great test; On the one side it is marked “Believe in Jesus Christ; Become my child and inherit eternal life's provision, be blessed”. The other door has a recording; “I will give you all that you desire if you bow down and worship me, I will give you lake front, land trust me!” “I will not lie, you will not die”. “Oh, do not cry, the lake is on fire, you failed the test! You should have taken the wooden cross and the nail scarred hand, Then you'd be living in the promised...

The Soldier stood and faced God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shining, Just as brightly as his brass. 'Step forward now, Soldier, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek? To My Church have you been true?' The soldier squared his shoulders and said, 'no, Lord, I guess I ain't. Because those of us who carry guns, Can't always be a saint. I've had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was tough. And sometimes I've been violent, Because the world is awfully rough. But I never...

The National Park Service has shared footage showing a 2,000-pound bison ramming another bison and briefly sending its rival airborne. . .“Durin’ matin’ season, male bison can be mighty aggressive, though all bison ‘n other wildlife can be dangerous and give you a heave!” the park service wrote Sunday on Instagram. “Remember to always keep yer distance — 25 yards from bison ‘n elk; 100 yards from all other wildlife.”....

When the bell tolled, You answered the call, Without reservation only duty, To Honor your oath you came.

We have a lot of feelings right now, and it's hard to process. Sometimes, we just want to say a cussword, like unbelievers or lesser satire sites, like The Onion, which is the atheist knockoff of The Babylon Bee. But we will refrain from doing so. Instead, here are ten G-rated cuss words to describe Joe Biden 1. No-good son of a biscuit - Sometimes he just makes us so frakkin' mad! 2. Dog-faced pony soldier - This one's technically not vulgar so it's OK to use his own insult against him. 3. A real donkeyhole - This is borderline...

Took many road trips with my 4 kids. I’d never heard the dead skunk growing up but we all heard it 1st together, immediately loved that ditty as we sang along in the car. So since that song got it's own thread I felt sure both this song and artist deserves a thread as well, we enjoyed most all the Heywood Banks songs. My fav song is: Toast but the kids favorite was: The Cat got Dead

This work is a collaboration between the University of Huddersfield, Delphian Records and EMAP (European Music Archaeologic Project). The information contained in the booklet is extremely detailed: from the musical history of Scandinavia through the centuries to the explanation of the musical instruments used for this recording, all reconstructed on the basis of archaeological sources. For space problems I limit myself to reporting only the first part of the booklet, the link to purchase the disc is at the bottom of the information.

We went live with AFP President Tim Phillips and special guest Senator Rand Paul to discuss how the PRO Act would harm the American economy and make it harder for people to get back to work.Here's a brief synopsis: Rand says increasing the corporate tax rate would be a huge mistake. He said the cut to 21% under President Trump was a big success and cites the 400 new jobs created in his hometown of Bowling Green, Kentucky by Corvette. Rand talks about the massive science funding bill which just passed and 17 GOPers in the U.S. Senate supported (Rand...

No decent, thoughtful human being wants to be accused of racism. Most decent, thoughtful human beings are guilty of racism. Of course, it’s usually unconscious, and it’s often hard to keep track of evolving language and social movements, of phrases in the vernacular that were perfectly acceptable ten years ago but are now taboo (and vice-versa). As writers, albeit pros or fanfic writers, or everyone in between, we use our words as tools, as toys, and sometimes, as weapons. It’s our responsibility to listen to new conversations, to keep abreast of the ever-changing socio-political climate, and above all, to think...

My latest song. Warning: Fowl language!

You’ve probably seen this trend before, some tool-bag driving around in a slammed E36 M3 with a European plate, that probably isn’t even from Germany, that says “D33z Nüt5” or something equally idiotic. It’s a big scene in America, to buy a European car, make it worse by putting it on cheap lowered suspension bought on eBay, slapping “Illest” stickers on it and throwing a European license plate on it so that people know its European. As if people didn’t already know that BMW, Volkswagen and Audi were from Europe. Doug Demuro, the guy on Jalopnik with the crazy cars,...
