Causes Galileo's math book to get thrown
At Delilah, who's sitting worthlessly alone
But the tears on her cheeks are from laughter"

Burning question here at the moment as it gets closer to a splash and wallow in the pool is how many paper wasps will meet their demise with the fly swat today !!!!

The Inuit do have several dozen words for ice, especially sea ice.

I wonder how many of them choose to wear it, as distinct from their patriarchal society demands?

Found another large brown snake in my hangar this morning.
I am really glad they move so quickly in the opposite direction to me.
Not so glad when they start moving in the same direction as me!.
Only had my flight bag and keys in my hand, not the sort of thing to tackle a 5ft GEB.
Lucky for me it changed direction and slithered under the door and somewhere else.
Don't need that excitement in my life.

I have/had no cat(s) of any pronoun, whether tailed, tail-less or of intermediate tail status.
