OT Things to ponder

[geofflambert]

OK, someone ate one of my squirrels in my back yard. I did not authorize this feast, but as long as the guilty party comes forth and admits to their skullduggery I feel I can forgive it. I would highly recommend that you come forward now as things could go quite harshly for you later.

I didn't notice this before, but ...

Maybe this funny looking Owl did it?

I once saw one of these up close. I was a boy scout and I was camping on a scout ranch when a couple of tornadoes came through. Our tents were swamped so we all got into an old VW van to sleep for the night. I awoke sometime that night and wanted a cigarette, so I rolled down the window next to me and lit up. I had a flashlight readily at hand and heard something outside. It was a bobcat and it seemed to me to be as big as a German Shephard. I could have reached out and touched it. I had the flashlight on it so there was no doubt. It was spotted, kind of like a leopard. It just glanced at me and kept moving like I didn't matter at all.

Pics, or it didn't happen!

My brother, who is significantly older than me, claimed, and I have no reason to doubt it, when he was a boy scout in Pennsylvania, he was on a ledge on a cliff face when he encountered one. He says it leapt at him and he pushed it away with one arm, it falling down to the base of the cliff, apparently dying from the impact. He said he thought it must have been sick, first to attack him and second to so utterly fail.

I have no pics. It was the S - F (that was pronounced S bar F) Scout Ranch and it was 1974, I think. S bar F stood for Styx Baer and Fuller, a department store chain that donated the land and etc.

Maybe a Gorn did it? Are you sure you do not sleepwalk, or rather sleepeat?

They usually travel in pairs.

They need a slogan on them - like "Make America Great or Bust".

Was this a prop for "The Attack of the 50 Foot Woman"?

If a woman were ten times as tall, that would square the surface area and cube the volume. Real heavy. Need really strong bra to stop sag.

They are from 'Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Sex'.

I'm going to do something that is really out of character for me and for this forum. Way back in the '80s I bought a shirt at some Dept. store. I still have that shirt. It looks like new. There's no visible wear on it, though I'm sure I've worn it a thousand times, except for the tag showing the ingredients used, that's all washed out. It's a long sleeve shirt and I wear it in the late fall and winter, but there's no wear even at the elbows. I looked them up (the mfg.) and they still exist so I thought I'd order another one. It arrived and it's the same as the old one. The brand is PalmLand. The shirts are pretty warm and block the wind, they have short sleeve versions but I would think those would be too warm for tropical climes like the southern US, except in winter. I suspect their durability is based on acrylic fibers, though I don't know for sure because that label is washed out on my old shirt and I can't read the one on my new shirt cause I'm wearing it right now. Seriously, try just getting one of these and wear it some this season. I know some people react to acrylic somehow, that's why I mentioned that.

Movie. Saw a short trailer for a movie called "Kidnap". The Liam Neeson part is played by Halle Berry. I've always had a really bad crush on Halle Berry. Now I hate movies where people are making out and stuff like that. I ask "Isn't something going to explode? No, I didn't mean that". I can't watch it, it's too horrible. So I'm thinking, I get Halle Berry and at the same time some things explode (no, not that). I'll probably still wait for it to come out on cable.
