Christopher Ingraham – Washington Post: “I ordered a box of crickets…”

This story is too fun: “I ordered a box of crickets from the Internet and it went about as well as you’d expect,” by Christopher Ingraham December 29, 2018 in the Washington Post. Find it here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/12/29/i-ordered-box-crickets-internet-it-went-about-well-youd-expect/?utm_term=.a0a393b763f6 

“For Christmas this year, my family adopted a young bearded dragon lizard as a pet.

“Our dragon, whom we named Holly, eats a lot, and the thing she loves to eat most is crickets (typically about 10 a day, in addition to other things like mealworms and vegetables). From the get-go, I knew that keeping an ample supply of crickets on hand would require some planning. We live in a rural area of northwestern Minnesota. The closest pet shop is an hour away, in North Dakota. Restocking our cricket supply would require a time commitment of at least two hours out and back.

“By Christmas Day this year, Holly’s cricket supply was running low. I decided to order crickets online, which I had never done before, to save a trip to North Dakota. I bought the crickets from Fluker Farms, one of the more well-established online insect vendors (yes, these exist and there are a lot of them). I decided on a shipment of 250 crickets …” Read much more here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/12/29/i-ordered-box-crickets-internet-it-went-about-well-youd-expect/?utm_term=.a0a393b763f6

Mooses Come Walking by Arlo Guthrie

Mooses Come Walking

by Arlo Guthrie

Mooses come walking over the hill

Mooses come walking, they rarely stand still

When mooses come walking they go where they will

When mooses come walking over the hill

Mooses look into your window at night

They look to the left and they look to the right

The mooses are smiling, they think it's a zoo

And that's why the mooses like looking at you

So, if you see mooses while lying in bed

It's best to just stay there pretending you're dead

The mooses will leave and you'll get the thrill

Of seeing the mooses go over the hill

Memories of Walt Disney's Perri, a 1957 Big Golden Book

Memories of Walt Disney's Perri, a 1957 Big Golden Book

According to oral tradition “Perri,” is the first book I ever read.

Who knows? But it makes for a great story. Although, right at this moment, I cannot lay my hands on my copy of the book, I still have the book and I have quite a soft-spot for the book and the memories of reading the book. The book has been by my bedside for about 55 years and recently I endeavored to put it away in a safe place. Well, we all know how that works-out.

Perri, it seems was also a movie that was released on August 28, 1957 by Walt Disney. The movie was based on a 1938 book by Felix Salten, by the same name. Salten also earlier wrote Bambi.

The story is essentially about the life and times and adventures of the main character, Perri, is a female squirrel that braves the threats of a marten, a weasel or ferret-like fury animal, a cold winter and a forest fire. Perri falls in love with Porro and together they face various challenges and dangers of the forest, along with the beavers, rabbits and deer of “Beaver Valley.”

April 29, 2014 KED

Curious – and to test my memory, I did a search on Perri and found this web page which has some pictures of the inside of the book. This will do for now, until I find my copy of the book…

Links: 11/29/2012, “walt disney’s perri.” http://friendlyghost.typepad.com/lost_found_vintage_toys/2012/11/walt-disneys-perri.html

PORK CHOPS - Love is blind and so is instinct

  Love is blind and so is instinct         

PORK CHOPS In a zoo in California , a mother tiger gave birth  to a rare set of triplet tiger cubs.  Unfortunately, Due to complications in the pregnancy,  the cubs were born prematurely  and due to their tiny size,  they died shortly after birth. The mother tiger after recovering from the delivery,  suddenly started to decline in health, Although physically she was fine.  The veterinarians felt that the loss of her litter  had caused the tigress to fall into a depression.  The doctors decided  that if the tigress could surrogate  another mother's cubs,  perhaps she would improve. After checking with many other zoos across the country, the depressing news was that there were no tiger cubs  of the right age to introduce to the mourning mother..  The veterinarians decided to try something  that had never been tried in a zoo environment.  Sometimes a mother of one species  will take on the care of a different species.  The only orphans' that could be found quickly,  were a litter of weanling pigs.  The zoo keepers and vets  wrapped the piglets in tiger skin  and placed the babies around the mother tiger...  Would they become cubs or pork chops? Take a look...you won't believe your eyes Now, please tell me one more time ... Why can't the rest of the world get along?     I am sending this to all that love animals............. It is just too cute not to pass along.

Explore Carroll: DAYHOFF: More Medal of Honor recipients have Carroll County connections

Explore Carroll: DAYHOFF: More Medal of Honor recipients have Carroll County connections

by Kevin Dayhoff

After last week's column about 1st Lt. John Buffington, of Taneytown, was published ("Recalling Carroll's only recipient of Congressional Medal of Honor"), I was told of research suggesting there are more Medal of Honor winners who have connections to our county.


Shortly after the column appeared, I heard from readers from all over the world -- from here in Carroll County to Australia to South Carolina.

As much as I appreciated everyone's feedback and questions, perhaps the most valuable came from Laura Jowdy, an archivist from the Congressional Medal of Honor Society (www.cmohs.org.)

Further research after last week’s Eagle Archive column, “Recalling Carroll’s only recipient of Congressional Medal of Honor” was published, indicates that at there may be at least four Medal of Honor winners who have connections with Carroll County.  See this week's Eagle Archive for more details."

For more information go to: www.mashatu.com/

Mashatu Game Reserve, "Land Of The Giants"

Mashatu Game Reserve is located in the Northern Tuli Game Reserve of Botswana bordering South Africa. It is the embodiment of all that defines Africa. Space so open and vast, taking it all in is almost too much; an array of wildlife from the gigantic to the miniscule; majestic skies open to the universe and unfettered by smog; a quiet so loud it thrums with life; and unexpected adventure beyond the game drive with horse-back safaris, cycling safaris and walks in the wild. Experience the lives of Africa's big cats, as well as on of the world's largest mammals - the elephant - through the mesmerizing Mashatu Research Programme.

Mashatu’s camps are an expression of the warm hospitality of Africa’s people. Relaxation is key, regardless of whether your choice is the luxury of Mashatu Main Camp, or the rustic appeal of Mashatu Tent Camp.

Safari vehicles meander into the bush twice a day, bringing visitors into close contact with an Africa that is largely known only in wildlife documentaries and glossy books. But this Africa is real, and distinctly tangible through all six senses.

Mashatu Game Reserve is a place to connect you to the essence of what life is meant to be. Uncomplicated, bold, and beautiful.

20070321 The secret life of baby spiders

The secret life of baby spiders

Photo caption: “Fired spiders and gum” from the web site, “Photography by Ewen Bell.” Neat site – check it out.

March 21, 2007

This post is for my wife. Read it quickly before it is prevailed upon me to amend it or take the post down.

Me: spiders gotta live somewhere. I just Zen them. As long as they don’t change the settings on my computer or eat my ice cream – I’m good. Whatever.

My wife: Spiders seem to make my normally unfazed, calm, and sedate wife go from zero to animated in a nanosecond. I know of nothing else that bothers my wife (except liberals… fortunately she doesn’t feel the need to squish them… .)

It is somewhat the source of amusement with me. Trust me, my amusement is not shared by my wife, and I have long since learned to adjust my approach. [Soccer Dad doesn’t wear paisley (My goodness that was an ugly tie.) - - I take spiders seriously – when they are the source of my wife’s undivided attention…]

Me to wife: Wife, I just saw on Nancy Grace that Anna Nicole Smith is still dead and the world is going to come to an end. Could ya please help me grab my computer before we go to the bomb shelter?

Wife: I don’t care - - There’s a spider in the house! Get it.

Over the years we have come to a sorta agreement. Found spiders in the house are not to be killed. They are to be invited to go outside… This seems to work as long as the spider is cooperative.

For the safety of spiders, I have posted a sign at the back door that our house is not safe for spiders. It seems to have worked.

Sooo, it was with some amusement that I saw that “Spiders Love to Snuggle.”

Perhaps Jeremy Bruno up at Voltage Gate (Besides, Mr. Bruno has not one article about spiders on his blog. What gives”) may have to interpret some of this for us, but according to Jeanna Bryner LiveScience Staff Writer LiveScience.com Wed Mar 21, 8:45 AM ET :

While not usually considered paragons of tender, familial love, some spiders do have a touchy-feely side. Scientists have discovered two arachnids that caress their young and snuggle together.

Social behavior is extremely rare in arachnids, a group of critters typically defined by their aggression, clever hunting methods and even predatory cannibalism.

"This was the best example I had ever seen of friendly behavior in an arachnid," said lead study author Linda Rayor, a Cornell University entomologist.
