one bad rat

I never read Terry Pratchett's book with the rats. I first read mention of them in a graphic novel called "the tale of one bad rat." Curious, I did a websearch, and concluded they were prime material for a mythical monster. Wonder if Pratchett saw that too? They do make for a good monster for sure,...

rat king

Terry Pratchett: The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents. A delightful takeoff on the Pied Piper story, and a real page-turner.

movies and carols

Least favorite Christmas music--Jingle Bell Rock, despise it, can't stand it, will pull my hair out.
Loved the Emperor's New Groove, and Finding Nemo. Don't get to see many movies. I like Chicken Run, but the rooster really doesn't look a bit like Mel Gibson......

I've been a victim of "take it down somebody might take offense"-itis. I work in a diverse workplace, we work on tanker aircraft. I have a large wooden rollaround box with a smaller one attached. On the back of the large box I post comics that I like, and various pictures. We have a new director of ...

yule log?

And what about the holly leaves?? Gee. Was mistletoe mentioned? I gave a talk at church around Christmas about What the Savior Means to Me and included the Yule log tradition, comparing primitive man's search for light in the dark winter to a lost soul searching for the light of Christ. Was Beltane ...

Grounding

Boy, am I lucky. The only time I had problems with the electricity was when I thought my central heat/air unit was smoking. I had to go to work, so asked hubby to keep an eye on it. After he got up and turned on lights he smelled smoke and he called and said smoke was coming out of the unit. Fire de...
