An eloquent reminder of the folly of our self-importance.

Taken from a reading given by Carl Sagan in 1996.

First seen over at daisyfae’s - these guys are just too good not to share.

These must be Miss Bimbo ‘graduates’.

Speaking of gatos, remember wake up cat?

Well, here is another one that I came across today on Miss Cellania.

zorba from oz

Got a couple of seriously bad earworms from Archie and his lovely better half Buff this morning. This is the antidote - remembered seeing this at Archie’s awhile back. An Aboriginal interpretation of Zorba the Greek. Isn’t it fabulous?

shiver me timbers

Just felt like hearing this again … hope you like it too.

Actually, it sounds like a fine word to me. Wandering Coyote sent this to me yesterday and I thought I’d pass it on. Lots of us are playing Scrabulous these days, either by email or on Farcebook.

If you’d like to play just drop me an email.
