Death at Hoyt Lake

Today I was at Hoyt Lake and counted 60 dead fish in the water. Those were only the ones that I saw on the surface. There were some signs of life. I saw lots of little fish, but all the fish that were dead appeared to be about 5-6 inches on avg. Heard several fish jumping out of water. Is that because they are happy, hungry, suffocating or having seizures?

Besides the deaths, the park was beautiful as always. Frederick Olmstead is a.o.k in my book.

Would love to hear people's theories regarding the dead fish.

Sacrificial Lamb of God

Sacrificial Lamb of God taste good!

My dad made this tasty lamb for Easter dinner. When I walked into his house, I said it smells like Grandma's because she is the only one i know who cooks lamb.

Lamb of God, who take away the sins of the world, spare us, O Lord!.
Lamb of God, who take away the sins of the world, graciously hear us, O Lord!.
Lamb of God, who take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.

Ok I swear never to talk about lambs again!

Happy Easter!

Clarice Starling: I heard a strange noise.
Hannibal Lecter: What was it?
Clarice Starling: It was... screaming. Some kind of screaming, like a child's voice.
Hannibal Lecter: What did you do?
Clarice Starling: I went downstairs, outside. I crept up into the barn. I was so scared to look inside, but I had to.
Hannibal Lecter: And what did you see, Clarice? What did you see?
Clarice Starling: Lambs. The lambs were screaming.
Hannibal Lecter: They were slaughtering the spring lambs?
Clarice Starling: And they were screaming.
Hannibal Lecter: And you ran away?
Clarice Starling: No. First I tried to free them. I... I opened the gate to their pen, but they wouldn't run. They just stood there, confused. They wouldn't run.
Hannibal Lecter: But you could and you did, didn't you?
Clarice Starling: Yes. I took one lamb, and I ran away as fast as I could.
Hannibal Lecter: Where were you going, Clarice?
Clarice Starling: I don't know. I didn't have any food, any water and it was very cold, very cold. I thought, I thought if I could save just one, but... he was so heavy. So heavy. I didn't get more than a few miles when the sheriff's car picked me up. The rancher was so angry he sent me to live at the Lutheran orphanage in Bozeman. I never saw the ranch again.
Hannibal Lecter: What became of your lamb, Clarice?
Clarice Starling: They killed him.

Happy Easter! Enjoy your lambs

This photo says animal testing is wrong. Animals feel love too.

jason writes at 11:02:48 04/16/06 - Comment #6530: BTW, my chemical testing comment was totally in jest (just to pre-empt overly sensitive fucks, not you)

jason writes at 07:04:27 04/15/06 - Comment #6500: Nice pic. What a cute little critter. I think we should do all of our chemical testing on Liberals instead of animals.

metalpeter writes at 03:08:03 04/15/06 - Comment #6489: I'm sure we all buy things that are animal tested and don't know it. I eat animals I admit it. But as far as testing goes I think that is wrong. Yes animals do have simalur biology to humans but they are not the same. So I say test it on humans. I'm not joking I'm serious there are a lot of down and out people who need money test your make up and drugs on them and see what happens. I know some people say that isn't etichal but I disagree. All people tested would be paid and any medical problems that accur from testing would be payed for to and if death accurid then funneral costs would be paid. If something is that dangerous then it needs to be altered before anyliving thing is tested with it.

Also, as I talk to people I can ask a few good questions. Anyway, here is that link I told you about. Thought it would be easier it get to it from the comment section than putting it into a post-it. Good luck on your project. Keep me updated?? :::link:::

theecarey writes at 01:48:40 04/14/06 - Comment #6448: That is a gorgeous bunny. Animals feel and respond to love.. and it is so easy to give it to them. I love animals-- all of them. Although, I still eat them on occasion! :)

leetee writes at 12:21:12 04/14/06 - Comment #6446: what an adorable bunny. great pic, too. and yeah, i totally agree with you, animals do feel love. that's why i don't eat them. :O)

Bush receives a lashing

"While I listen to you talk about freedom, I see you assert your right to tap my telephone, to arrest me and hold me without charges, to try to preclude me from breathing clean air and drinking clean water," real estate broker Harry Taylor told Bush at a town hall meeting. "I have never felt more ashamed of nor more frightened by my leadership in Washington."

"I feel like, despite your rhetoric, that compassion and common sense have been left far behind during your administration," he told Bush. "And I would hope, from time to time, that you have the humility and the grace to be ashamed of yourself."

"I'm not going to apologize for what I did on the terrorist surveillance program. ... Would I apologize for that? The answer is, absolutely not," he said to applause.

Will we lose Mondo?

I have gone back and forth in my mind regarding the Hotel thing. When I learned that Mondo Video probably would not move to a new location due to the high rents charged on other parts of Elmwood, my mind was made up. Without Mondo we are all at the mercy of Blockbuster. They don't even have an uncut version of Showgirls! Since I never plan on staying at a Hotel on Elmwood Ave, Mondo is clearly the better option for me.

Horoscopes/Astrología

I compared the horoscopes posted in spanish and english on the Yahoo webpage. I assumed they would be the same, but they are entirely different.

Yahoo in english

Quickie:
Today focus exclusively on the people and things in your life that will endure.

Overview:
Your loved ones know they can count on you for just about anything -- you've always remembered the necessities and niceties that everyone else lets slide. If they ask, let them in on your secret.

Yahoo en español

VIDA PRIVADA
Por fin, las cosas empiezan a mejorar y hay un nuevo romance en tu vida. De todas maneras no te debes dejar por el encanto de alguien, porque te puedes desilusionar cuando ese brillo termine.

Basically, it says things are improving starting to improve in my life and there is a new romance in my life. I shouldn't, however, be swept up by their charm becauses I will be dissapointed when it ends.

I looked at other peoples signs and realized the spanish ones are all much more specific about what they say. ¡Que interesante!
