The rest of you have been subverted.

That has to be it, because it casts me as the normal person. Yeah.
There is no such thing as a natural population balance around here ... everyone is neutered.

As long as people keep maiming and abusing cats and dogs, I'm going to keep on adopting them.

I respect your race memories ... just as long as you keep your blinking hands off my blinking kitties.

oh the joys of the language when its chewed up ..... actually a fox 8 the chucks on Christmas Eve, and we never replaced them after that.

and no, the goats were kept outside, mainly in a barn....

miss this time of year as it was one of the times when they would be sheared; the second time was in Feb/Mar....

Very cool! Have I mentioned that I have a thing for gears, levers, and clocks? The video in the article didn't work for me, but I found one on YouTube.

Think I could get a wristwatch version?

i must go make a pilgrimage to cambridge to see that clock.

It's beautiful, as a piece of artwork, but I prefer clocks that, boring or not, actually tell time ... accurately.

why do i get the feeling the grasshoppers are going to be the new lemurs (which were the new llamas which were the new pandas which were the new squirrels which were the originals... forgive me if i've missed a step in this strange evolutionary chain) ??

Certainly wouldn't want a watch to wreck havoc with my wardrobe. I'll settle for a small version for my living room wall.

Did you notice the grasshopper's eyes?
