Interesting article. About what I figured.

Yeah I was thinking one of the construction guys probably lost it when they were building these places.

Ha, it never occurred to me that the handle end was a bottle opener, but of course it is. That should put a limit on how old it is, anyway. I searched a lot of images of old keys on the web and didn't find any that were cut from sheet stock like this one. That tends to reinforce the idea that it...

Sad story. Whenever I read something like this I always harbor this little hope that somewhere there are still living specimens. How do they actually go about saying that there are_none_ of an animal like this? Is it based on time since the last sighting?

Or at least, a key, and maybe an old one. I found this while mowing on Saturday, partially buried in my back yard. Since I've been mowing that spot for twelve years I presume it was heaved up by last winter's cold temps. And here's a shot of the other side... The key is about 4" in...

When I lived up in Rhode Island they called that stuff "Nastygansett."

lol :).

Have they built the one up in Massachusetts yet? I haven't seen any really big marine fields, but driving out I-70 through Kansas a year ago it was just about all I could see for miles and miles. Most of them weren't turning, either.

We caught tons of garter snakes up at my Dad's place in Quebec when I was a kid. I nearly always ended up damaging their tails and feeling bad about it for days.

Anacondas and Boas are both members of the genus Snakus Holy Shitus. I can see how they would mix them up.

Some of those were pretty surprising, particularly the one showing the very few counties that hold half our total population.

Interesting article. My reactions to it are a confused mix. On the one hand I can well understand the ties to the land in a community with a long history like that. I know oyster towns and I know oyster people. Spent three seasons on a Maryland skipjack living in a town with 44 people left (and...

Interesting. I thought boas were more likely to be found in trees. Probably too many episodes of Jonny Quest when I was a kid.

Seems possible. But I thought boas were not amphibious. Is it possibly an anaconda?

Karelian Bear dogs! Aye! I recall the breed from my last trip north past the Wall. Damn that was a... Sorry, got carried away there. So basically it is Scared Straight for bears.

What does "aversively conditioned" mean? Do they slap them around and tell them to leave the people alone? Or maybe just a stern lecture? :)

Wow, that's some really deep stuff there. That's almost as deep as the stuff I was coming up with when I was 15.

Had an awesome time. Well worth the drive. Was great to see so many friendly faces in the packed meeting room.

Sorry for your loss, Jamea.

Lol.
