Two words could be used to describe yesterday's NWN: Leroy Jenkins!

Okay, now that we're all alive again, let's review the finer points of "lure them out one at a time and... wait!  Come back!  Argh!"

The list of ingredients on the package reads thusly:

FISH, HONEY DEW, GOURMET POWDER, SOR SAUCE, SALT, VEGETABLE OIL

I don't know if it's the "sor sauce" or the "gourmet powder", but one of the ingredients has set my tongue on fire and triggered my sweat glands.  Zounds - these fishies have bite! My tongue is in distress. =(

Still waiting to plant.

We'd hoped this year would start off better,
but could this spring be much more wetter?
And wouldn't it just be a bummer
if, like last year, it rained all summer?

I couldn't make this stuff if I wanted to.

VILLAGE WHERE A LITTLE DOG'S TERROR IS USED TO PREDICT THE FUTURE

Mar 7 2005

SUPERSTITIOUS Bulgarian villagers believe terrified dogs are the key to a prosperous future.

Every year, the village of Brodilovo hold a 'trichana na kuche' - dog's spin - ceremony.

They tie dogs to a device made of two twisted ropes and spin them round, frightening them so badly they empty their bowels.

Villagers believe, according to ancient custom, that the more faeces the dogs produce, the healthier and wealthier the year will be for Brodilovo and its inhabitants.

I admit that for a change I'm actually more appalled than amused.
