Although I guess this would have been more appropriate.

And eats pizza with a knife and fork.

This has no relevance to current events, but I just thought it was funny as hell...and I didn't feel like starting a new thread.

L'ours noir!

Dayum.

It's always good to start off with a transparent lie about your reason for posting.

We have chiggers here as well (in fact the town nearby the area I bow hunt most often has an annual "Chigger Fest"), but they're usually not bad, and I've been lucky enough to avoid them completely except for 1 that got it's chompers into my arm a couple seasons ago. I was amazed at how much it hurt given how tiny those little bastards are. I can't imagine getting into a swarm of them. If we're lucky!

:grin: I'm just bustin' yer huevos, Jon. Just like my wife's friends and family in Wisconsin do every time she complains about how "cold" it is here during the winter. "Oooooh. 38 degrees ya' say? Yeah, that's almost long-pants weather 'der. Almost." Well, OK...there are no huevos involved there, but... But seriously, it's pretty miserable in the field right now. Bugs, snakes (though they're not as much of a problem), poison ivy every-damned-where. Even sitting out in the milo fields dove hunting (which just started this week) is a challenge because you have sweat dripping in your eyes by the time the sun comes up. Bow season starts the first weekend of October, and it's probably going to be uncomfortable even then.

Nope. I'm waiting for it to dip into the mid to upper '80s.

Gee, that's rough.

Damn....all good finds.

Yeah, that pretty much nails it.

Hang in there. Brian Williams is en route with reinforcements.

This is the actual page that gets displayed when you try to access non-existent content on Trump's personal website (donaldjtrump.com),

BTW, I'm no criminal mastermind...and I didn't even rob a Holiday Inn Express last night...but it seems to me that giving orders at gun-point and then not actually doing anything to the first guy who tells you to go pound sand sets a bad precedent for the remainder of the activity.

LOL! Yeah, that was my impression as well. Just got fired, wife/GF kicked him to the curb, etc. All that he has to live for now is his phone and smokes.

I don't know about dwarf tossing, but I seem to recall some ancient mosaics depicting cat juggling.

Well, you have to admit...that would be a lot more entertaining than any Super Bowl half-time show from the past 10 years, at least.

Cool. We missed out on that. Did you get to walk into the center of the arena, hold your arms out and yell, "Are you not entertained?!!" We did get to walk the tunnel the GB Packers take from their lockers out onto the field at Lambeau. That's pretty much the same...right?

RIP Zero Mostel. He was a funny SOB. Peter Ustinov too. Now I need to rewatch both AFTHOTHWTTF and Viva Max.

What? No albatross?

It's impressive that the colliseum...er, coliseum...er, colosseum....er....Flavian amphitheater...is still standing after all this time, not to mention the attention Rome received from the Visigoths and others. We enjoyed walking around inside, but were very disappointed after we'd been there for 30 minutes and nary a single hot dog or beer vendor made the rounds.

I think the willingness to run for national office is proof of a lack of sanity.

They're no Duchy of Grand Fenwick though.

.... :p
