Hibernation, Frog Style

Variations on a theme.

A pleasant weekend to all, and to all a goodnight.

Undead, Zombie Frog Bankers Invade Toronto

There are few, if any, defenses against an army of undead zombie frog bankers. You might as well just throw your money out the window and run away.

Here are some chocolate crepes from Paris. These would go well with a cafe au lait on a sunny morning, when a whole, perfect day stretches before you. Meanwhile, as winter approaches in Toronto....

Santa is busy making chocolate. These two are from neuchatelchocolates.com.

I've been waiting for nearly two years now for this book, but it should be out before too long. Walt Kelly is one of my heroes, along with Carl Barks, Bill Watterson, Charles Schulz, and many others.

Here's another picture of a steam shovel, in case you need a little cheering up. Steam shovels are always ready to give you a pat on the back and utter a few kind words to get you going.

Sunday is slipping away. Soon it will be Monday. Must not let that happen....

Home, home on the range....

Duck Lothario Spoils Robot Romance

All's well that ends well; they were happy ever afterwards; look for the silver lining, and a cat in a hat will scratch your scalp, etc.
My latest trick is to insert the AC adapter tip into my computer, whilst forgetting to plug the power brick into an outlet. I wondered why the screen kept dimming every time I paused for a moment or two for reflection.
Speaking of reflecting on things, here's a little something from the basketspot.com, a basket of assorted chocolates that would brighten up any room in your house or apartment, and they require very little care. Just unwrap one or two every few hours and make them feel wanted.
And if anyone tries to sneak up on you and steal your chocolates, here's just the thing to defend yourself--a 155 mm Long Tom Howitzer (batteries not included). I'm sure you can find one on eBay that was owned by a little old granny who only used it for potting raccoons.
On a related note, I spotted some tiny Venus Flytrap plants languishing in a grocery store flower shop the other day, so I now I have two of the little carnivores, and they actually work! They snap up the minuscule, irritating flies that accompany fresh fruit into our apartment. I am very pleased with these little warriors, and will do everything in my power to make sure they thrive. Unfortunately, I think they were damaged during transport, but we shall see.
According to Wikipedia, some scientists are recommending the Venus Flytrap be put on a 'vulnerable' list, which makes sense to me. We should offer a helping hand to these plants, and while we're at it, we should teach them how to gobble up mosquitoes, flies, blackflies, and other assorted devils from Heck.
There, I said it!
Pax!
Peace, order and good government.
A chocolate bar in every pot!
