I remember this book!

Not sure which edition I had... it's *possible* I had the later one, but I probably had the earlier one.

Regardless, I now need one again. I wonder if it's still in our attic, and useable....

Today's haiku:

Days growing shorter
Darkness comes faster, sharper
Soon will come the snow

Unrelated, but I just found an article/interview that had parts that made me immediately think "this is absolutely crying out for a Conuly-snark!"

US GIs to help rescue abused cheetah cubs (http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2005/11/26/international/i074515S95.DTL)

Not snarking the GIs (I would like our military a lot more if they did this kind of thing more often than what they're usually doing), but rather the dumbass comments from the guy refusing to give up the cubs unless they force him to do it...

Honestly? I don't know how I can improve upon "Well, I used to look after some goats, and camels, and other milk-giving herbivores, so I know all about BIG MANEATING CARNIVORES THAT OUGHT TO KILL ME WHERE I STAND! No, really!"

This is the third time today somebody's posted a link because "Conuly ought to comment on this". Weird. That usually only happens once or twice a week :)

*snicker* That's EXACTLY the line that made me think that!

Yeah, well, it kinda speaks for itself. Some people are good people, and others deserve to be eaten by cheetahs. I'm *this close* to saying they should eat the kids, too, but I'm giving them a temporary exemption for being very young and raised by an idiot.
