Tortoises Fight, Basra "Wins"?
Category: pets
I think its not going to work out with the new tortoise. Despite having a giant backyard to play in they find each other and fight or have sex. I don't think its going to be possible to keep them together indoors without one killing the other.

Strangely, when I got home it was the little one attacking Basra. He must have had a bad day because matt found him upside down in the pond pit when he got home. Sadly it seems that youtube cannot handle the video which is weird because it is totally normal on my phone and I uploaded twice with the same problem.



It wasn't long before he turned the situation around. What surprising is just how long they can have sex for. It must have gone on for over an hour. By the end he was foaming at the mouth and drooling. Its so weird because they never make any noise accept for that.

Can't watch the 2nd video right now.... But maybe this is normal for when one animal has the run of the place and another one moves in... I know some times with cats when you bring in a new one they get along and sometimes they don't.... I think you have to find a way to make it work you can't really take the new one back?

Prayer In The Park
Category: hiking
We went hiking at Niagara Gorge the other day and the Christians had some prayer in the park thing going on.

I can't believe how loud they are. There were like 15 of them but with their loud speakers you would think it was for a crowd of 500.

Why is having a giant loudspeaker not illegal in a state park? I mean most of the people came there to visit the nature and you couldn't hear anything over their bullshit.

Now to Bash them.... (joking a bit but a bit serious as well) Now maybe they did this and you just didn't get it on film.... If they where "Real Christians" they would be down by the water doing baptisms and Spiritual Cleanings (wrong word) but you know cleaning up the sin and all that rebirth stuff with white robes and stuff.....
metalpeter - 09/14/11 18:56
Can't believe I'm going to defend them and then bash them all in the same comment... I like the speaker idea cause if say you are a god loving person and you know or heard it is going down but not sure where then you can find them.... Plus if you are a true Believer you think you should spread it around so everyone else comes to your view....

Not The Chicken Wing
Category: roadkill
Saw this next to Ulrich's today and thought it would make a good addition to my roadkill photos although this looks like a distinctly feline creation.

He heard he had wood so thought he should as well? Wait I thought it was a girl? Most likely this is just a way to say "Hey I'm the alpha you do what I say this is my place you eat what I let you eat"?

Oh, he is fine now. He finally pooped a whole bunch of normal poop.

Don't you think your weak and sick new tortoise is being traumatized by the unruly parakeet-murderer? I wonder if you shoul keep them apart atleast until the new one gets better and is able to fend for himself.

Welcome to outerspace
Category: dancing
The location is awesome. There are three stories of dancefloors. One in giant theater with a massive vinyl dance floor. It is so perfectly slippery. Then they have an outdoor stage.

Sadly, although I am dancing I am wildly preoccupied with several other issues. Sometimes I wish I had the constitution to be a heroin junkie so I could just escape.

@(e:tinypliny) and at (e:Paul) also I guess you don't want that drug all you need to relax from what I have Heard is a nicely cooked Stake and a beer.... Or if that doesn't work that Japanese women from that party book....

Heroin junkies find it hard to reverse engineer anything.

You worry too much...
