Not animal related, but the current joke with the little Torqueling and me is that there are two instrument types: flutes (which she plays) and trumpets. French horns are bendy trumpets. Trombones are slide trumpets. Clarinets are wood trumpets. Violins are string trumpets. Drums are bang trumpets. ---

Dogs are doggos now, or goob bois. They have frens (not friends). They’re heckin’ cute. If you trick them you do a bamboozle. I could go on. Instead I’m off to look at doggos. ---

In honor of our suburban gray deer infestation, boosted by both uncontrolled sprawl and our liberal use of greenbelts to collect water runoff, I’ve taken to calling them Greenbelt Rats. But, holy hell, they’re everywhere! ---
