I didn't know people needed to be alerted to that fact.

But remember, Strega, we are the people who need coffee lids that say "Contents will be hot."

People are stupid.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, on a package of peanuts: MAY CONTAIN PEANUTS.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I had an argument a while ago with the BF about some household or farm animal that wasn't actually domesticated. Can't remember what it was, does anyone have a clue?

Also, I don't understand why anyone would wear that Greece shirt, because it's just an invitation for trouble. I do love the "You have died of dysentery" shirt and am considering buying it.

In MA, you can't have a pet that is wild, or within X number generations of wild. Ferrets and I think snakes are not legal pets, as well as things like alligators and tigers and bears.

Wait, I know people in MA with or who've had Ferrets (and not just Victor and Thessaly), and I've also seen people walking around in public with pythons draped around them. Is the law just not being enforced very strongly (or at all)?

Deer? Cause all over NZ they have deer farms and I kept thinking, "Are they really domesticated?"

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

What would these labels say? "Object is not immune to the laws of physics"?

Oh please, oh please. That's a warning label I'd never peel off.

I tried to take a picture up on the cliff of Monserrat in Spain of this sketchy little cliffside trail. There was a weathered sign warning PELIGRO! lying about 10 ft down on a outcropping. Obviously, it had fallen down. And no one cared.

The contrast between that and the near-psychotic level of rails and warnings you see in major national parks here really struck me.

Ooh, so Victor and Thessaly have outlaw ferrets? In retrospect, it all makes so much more sense.

Also, I don't understand why anyone would wear that Greece shirt, because it's just an invitation for trouble.

I think you just answered your own question.

Back when I lived in the wilds of Southwest Pennsylvania, my church group went to the Pittsburgh Zoo and stared in confusion at the white tail deer display. "Deer? In a zoo?" "There was one in my back yard this morning." "Yeah, and I nearly hit one last night."

Country kids in the big city = big fun.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ACME needs to use this warning on its products - at least to the stuff it sells to coyotes.
