some. related. posts.
---------------------------------------------
this just in: Derek sent me some pages from a pretty ballistic little children's book which you can see over here - Do you know what I'm going to do next saturday? Well, sir...let me tell you!
I'm sure you'll agree it's a preferable alternative to renewing the elementary school library's subscription to Soldier of Fortune for next year.

THANK YOU. Now I possess effictive, colonial-approved methods to capture my kids fleeing from the scene of a crime.

Dad: You took a DUMP behind the shed???

Son: I'm outta here! (climbs tree higher than I can)

Dad: Ha! I'll just use my new chainsaw to impose juxtapositional deforestation. Now there's nowhere for you to go!

Classic!

Derek!
yes, 400+ years of practical application! you will also probably need a gunny sack. I guess there are worse places to take a dump. (can't believe Kenyon is 7!)

jo- yeah, that's basically it, isn't it. boo and a lasso. everything else is just for if you want to get fancy.

linny- bizarre indeed. and did you see the dark colored men who get put to use on p49, dancing and playing instruments to round up the elephants?

also,that mountain lion on 26 doesn't look real healthy.

that is a sad, sad book. The anguish in the ardvarrk's eyes was just unbearable...

yeah, you're glass is always half full. At least it was outdoors...(easy to hose down)

The zoo man is a total bastard, but that was a good read.

Also the picture of the mountain lion - I don't think that person has ever seen a mountain lion before.
