“Seven swans a swimming.” You angling for all those presents in that Christmas song? Where you gonna put all those drummers, pipers, lords, ladies, milkmaids, and all those birds?! I say ask for the 5 gold rings and call it a day. We had snow on Thanksgiving, in Southern California! ---

So you’re happy that some greedy developer or soulless highway engineer ran a road right through this poor creature’s habitat? Sure, it made it across the road _this_ time… Just lit the first fire of the year, on a cold 42 deg night. ---

42 degrees is COLD to you? We had 25 degrees and six inches of snow yesterday. But I still got home on the bus and by walking the last two blocks to my house.
