Just one state over - and they had the monkey pox in Wisconsin, too. Though Gus claims he had nothing to do with it.

A llama once vomited on my cousin (in Maine, no less).

Vomit or spit? Because I know llamas are like camels in that regard (spitting when annoyed, and a lot of it).

Also, a moose once bit your sister, right?

Oh, excellent. Now I have to worry about coming down with monkey pox, although it's quite a bit more likely that I'll die of cat-scratch fever first. (Does anyone get cat-scratch fever anymore?)

You mean besides Ted Nugent?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

IIRC, the bactrian (two hump) camel is nearly extinct in the wild, and not doing all that great in captivity what with the decline in nomadic populations in Mongolia, so that may be behind the unequal regulations... or perhaps the guy who thought them up figured that if dromedaries were good enough for the Bible they were good enough for MA.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I got scratched by a cat recently, seriously enough to draw blood, but I am not yet dead.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

My problem with the you can go anywhere type if park is the damage to the land from people being stupid as they wander, or there just being too many of them, not the danger.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Does anyone get cat-scratch fever anymore?

My dad was hospitalizied with a bone infection from getting badly scratched by a cat. The nurses said it was a type of cat scratch fever.

What is even happening?

Oddly enough, I've had this conversation before, Frank. It may have just been spit. But they're ruminants (is that the right word) and so there is cud they've brought back up, in their spit. It's not just a saliva issue.

Ann, that's a ferret.

And Teddy was quite feisty in his younger days.

He even got Hubs in the eye once. Don't remember the year, but it was the day of the ACC Men's Basketball Tournament Final.
