Herpetologists count various subspecies, it gets confusing when listening to those folks.

Talk about striking at a distance... 305mm soviet rail gun?

Is that behemoth an electric railgun or is it a gun that rides on the rails (RR tracks)?

The copperheads we had around didn't seem to try to bite people. When my satellite was being installed, the installer brought his kid with him (not sure why the kid wasn't in school as it was on a school day during school hours). The kid stepped on a copperhead and it didn't do anything. I looked down, saw it, and told the kid to move away very slowly and went to get a machete. Installer was freaked out.

The kid stepped on a copperhead and it didn't do anything.

When I hiked a lot at our last place, I saw many rattle snakes. I stepped on several over the years. I was never bitten.
I think because the snakes were curled up and sleeping during the day. As I was walking by the time they were ready to strike I was already well out of range. Or maybe I just didn't smell good

According to conservation dept. We have no cotton mouths here. So being a smart aleck kid, when I was 12, I killed one at a city lake and took it to the agent on my bike. He agreed it was a cottonmouth but swore I could not have killed it here.

Known as the happiest critter on earth... The Quokka, a member of the kangaroo family that lives in western Australia.

Another happy critter, but no happy camper.

There is a game preserve within walking distance of my place with buffalo. The bulls do not stand for being messed with even with a double chain link fence between the stupid teen (aka me) and them.

If TEOTWAWKI ever happens I plan to walk there with a set of bolt cutters to let them loose. They would be sitting ducks to the hungry non-preppers. Let them loose and they can take care of themselves.

The city surprised everyone this year after skipping festivities last year... They have dyed the river green again...

Oh, the silver looking building in the center view is the Trump hotel and condo building...

Fried apple pies anyone ??

Those are yummy looking fry pies, Phideaux. Very popular around here, and I eat wayyyy too many of them. Cherry cream cheese are my favorite, and I like them with a light glaze on them.

 

[Peanut]

Luv fried apple pies... Made me think of my great aunt Lilly... She made the best ones ever.

I misread "conservation" as "conversation" and was wondering what the hell a conversation dept was. LOL. I showed my doctor the picture of the green Soylent. He looked at it real close, zoomed in, and laughed. We all said "Soylent green is people!" at the same time.

I found this pic of my mom funny. She fell asleep on the way home from her eye doctor. Had her sunglasses on and reading glasses on her nose. The building behind used to be an orphanage run by freemasons. We call it the Orphanarium. Beautiful old building, but they put up some ugly clinic in front of it and it makes me sad every time I go by. Wish I'd had the $ to buy the place and put a fountain in front instead of blocking it with another building.

I will note that Mom is 70 and does not dye her hair.

Those pies look good Jim. We always get several when we go to one of the Amish places. Blueberry was my favorite. But last time I found a coconut cream filled. OMG that was soooooooooooo good

 

[phideaux]

How about peach?

In Ireland it must be "Take Your A$$ to Work Day".

Yosmite River and Half Dome in the background. I went there once, an amazing sight to see.

Ha! mr meer posted a photo the other day. I only saw the bottom half of the photo not knowing there was an upper half until today.

The upper half is a place I know well, been there several times. It's a place filled with rare medicinal plants and difficult to get to, quite a hike.

The dark spot in the right bottom corner of my first photo is someone's head.
