SNOOOOOOORRRRF!
Snorf. [Camera tips over due to vacuum]
Photograph by Sean Crane of a young bearded piglet in Tanjung Puting National Park in Borneo, Indonesia. They have some serious snorting going on over there. I can almost feel the wind rushing in that direction. Fabulousness brought to you by National Geographic, natch!
Oh, noooooo! Mr. Stripey has fallen into the Pit of Ultimate Sorrow! Don’t move, Mr. Stripey — I’ll be right back with a rope and a cable news crew!
Has “Smudge” met our resident hustler, Chris G.?
Aye-yup, caught this sucker ’bout twenny miles offa the Cape, coupla summers ago. We was just ‘spectin’ ta catch a few Siamese, they like ta school out that way, ya know, but then I get this big tug on my line, damn near yanked me right offa the boat!
So Brian says it looks like an Orange Spotbelly, you hardly ever see them up this far North, and so I gotta reel it in careful-like, because my line ain’t rated for a cat that big, ya know. An’ o’course it’s fighting me all the way, hissin’ an’ thrashin’ about an’ spittin’ hairballs like they do…
Well, we finally land the beast and head back for the docks so’s we can get it measured for the record books, and of course everybody’s gotta get their picture taken with the damn thing. Anyway, that’s it over the mantel, f’ya don’t believe me.
Lauren B. notes that “William” was just one year old when this was taken, so we assume he’ll be visible from space before long.
I will not!
I won’t !
You can’t make moi! Etc.!
Tbbbbppppft!
Madagascar Lemur by Sandrine Vuillermoz. Another fine selection from the National Geographic Photo contest. Yes, you can enter your photos, yes, you could win a LEICA D-LUX 4 camera! But hurry, like ‘Tocktober, contest closes 10/31.
OMG, you did NOT just do that. Embarrrrasssing! [Singsong]
Another stellar entry over at the National Geographic Photo Contest. This one is by Dana Styber!
I’m an old cowham, just a-riding ’round the land
Got a toothpick in my mouth and a lasso in my hand
Gotta round up all the piggies, keep an eye out for the strays,
‘Cuz they’s orn’ry little critters, runnin’ every which-a-ways.
So it’s chase ‘em down and land ‘em, tie ‘em up and brand ‘em,
Some days ya gotta love ‘em, and others ya can’t stand ‘em.
Gotta drive ‘em cross the prairie, forty mile to get your pay,
Then we spend it all in town, chompin’ corn and brocc-a-lay…
Yo-de-layyyyyy… yee-haaaayyyy… de-hooooooo!
Just as he did every afternoon, Sanford told his friends he was headed out to the river to relax while listening to Bach and Mozart. He didn’t like to lie, but the shame of the truth was too great: Alone on the waters, he’d place those ear phones on his head, and disappear in the sweet, sweet sounds of (similarly coiffed) Richard Marx.
And, you’re welcome:
Wherever you go, whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you, Angie C.
Earthlings beware! When I wear my Mask of HummingPower, I can communicate telepathically with these small yet deadly creatures, transforming them into an unstoppable army with which I shall conquer the world! Soon, puny Earth creatures shall kneel before me, or such a poking you’re gonna get! (Evil laughter!)
It’s rumored that Bono has already written the lyrics; and if he stops conducting foreign policy initiatives for the White House, you know the situation must be dire. Poor little Topper. One minute he’s playing with abandon, the next he’s falling down a well into a cardboard box.
Listen furless beings, can’t you see I’m trying to take a nap here?
Sing as many songs about me as you like – I don’t care. Just don’t tell that Angelina Jolie about this. She’ll see I’m sleeping on kitchen towels, assume I need rescuing, and before I know it, my name will be changed to Toppox.
What do you use to wash dishes, Kat C.?
