      Lord, I can remember when a certain wild animal park was flooding the pet market with lion cubs in the early 70s. There were so many problems with them they finally outlawed their sale but my favorite call was one where the owner discovered that a grown male unaltered lion, regardless of how ‘friendly’ it was, could pee through sheetrock.

        I can remember going to an animal park in California when I was a little girl They had a show where the animals performed. The park was actually for training animals for the movies. A male lion decided to rain down on as many in the audience as he was able. A poor little kid in a stroller got quite a lot of it!
        Luckily, I got missed, but the smell was AWFUL!

        The strange things you can recall from childhood!

          I think my worst one was walking into a backyard in a Florida housing development to find that the reason the owner had fenced in his whole backyard, including overhead, was his collection of big cats – and I’m not talking Maine Coons. We just backed put saying: “Nice kitty, nice kitty…”.
          Owner just said that they were tame and wouldn’t hurt us – I said I’d believe that when I heard it from the cats in standard English.

    Wuz jes outside and one of my favorite spiders, a real Japanese Godzilla bit part spider, had built its web out in the usual place. I usually try to kick up a cricket or two to feed her but it’s foggy an damp tonite – slim pickins’ – so I used my headlight to get a couple of moths to fly into her web. Not exactly a feast but they should keep her until something bigger comes along. My spiders are amazing.

        I think my fave-fav are the banana spiders. They are huge, build even hugerer webs and look as if they are wearing brightly colored leg w dew settarmers.

        We have times, when the grass is a bit longer, when the dew settles and the lawn’s covered with grass spider webs, covered like a blanket.

        There’s an array of them out here and they do help keep the bugs down and they provide a show.

      Good morning, Nyet! You do realize that all the products you are serving contribute to global warming or climate change, right? Oil, gas for the vehicles used to bring the items to market, etc. There’s gotta be somebody collecting the carbon taxes as sort of a “get out of jail quick” pass. If you don’t know anyone, just send $2-5,000 to me at Athelhampton House in Dorset…a 15th century major house with incredible English architectural gardens…

      …where I’m doing research into climate change along with a bunch of Democrat contenders for the White House which is already occupied and will continue to be by President Donald J. Trump until his retirement in January 2025…

      …please have the breakfast served in the Great Hall…

      …later I’ll spend the afternoon lolling around in the State Bedroom…

      …thinking how I’m gonna spend those fees (clue: it won’t be on an electric car)!

      Thanks ever so!

    Everything will be OK.
    Do not allow yourself to be overcome with concern or fear
    to the point you are too anxious to function smartly.
    Do not succumb to dark imaginings;
    focus on what you can do, not what you fear you cannot do.

    What the West Owes to Islam (Part 1)
    Posted September 5, 2019 by Hugh Fitzgerald

    Last Saturday at the annual convention of the Islamic Society of North America, presidential candidate Julián Castro said: “Muslim Americans for generations have been part of the fabric of our American family. They have helped make America the great nation it is.”

    Every other day, it seems, someone takes it upon himself to instruct the West about what it “owes to Islam.” This is offered in a tone of intellectual reproach: how ignorant and ungrateful of the West not to appreciate Islamic civilization for all the things it has brought us.

    lilbirdee12’s prayer:

    Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.

    Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.

    Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and Mike Pence and their families as they seek to lead America back to You.

    Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall.
    Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.

    We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
    Thank you Father, for Your Love and the gift of Life.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.

    A prayer for Justice Kavanaugh and Gen. Flynn:

    Prayer to St. Michael

    St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle;
    be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
    May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
    and do you, O prince of the heavenly host,
    by the power of God,
    thrust into hell Satan and the other evil spirits
    who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
