Well, I guess that the Brexit thingy is political...and I am not interested, my tube already bombards me with a lifetime worth of nonsense at every viewing. Pure insanity seems to be a very marketable commodity nowadays.

I like the way Otis handles his Squirrel Kingdom......we are all together until we are not, then those that are not make great Brunswick stew.

This recipe calls for 70 squirrels....in case of a mass desertion, Otis keeps it posted on a big oak tree for all to see!

For a break I am listening to the discussion of the Euro Cup soccer. Yak, yak, yak. They are actually talking about a game that will happen tomorrow. England vs Iceland.

Almost sounds like people talking about politics.

And this just out from National Geographic:

Time to Savor the Squirrel (Again)?
Lean and plentiful, the squirrel was once considered a cheap source of protein. Maybe it's time to bring it back to the bowl.

Hmmm.... Or yummm...

Maybe Bert would like bacon if it was wrapping up a roasted squirrel?

This morning the Beeb is still going, and still talking about the same subjects at they have been talking of all weekend. The sun rose at the usual time and it is possible to see it. Life goes on. Get on with it.

There are so many problems in this world that just hearing them can bring a storm of depression. Here it is truly a refuge where we can do what we did as kids......be stupid and have a little fun. If I rejected all media and just lived in this thread I'd believe that the biggest problem mankind faced was trying to understand why someone hated bacon. I kinda like that.

Regards!

Feel good news stories can be found, but they're not usually headline makers.

How do eyeglasses like those in that photo stay on? Always wondered. Surely some engineer or gravitational expert here on the forum has some explanation.
