I love the angle on this.

Thanks DG, not for long. Tranquility has well and truly left the garden, Buddha now sitting elsewhere till the works finished!

Om Om Om Om - I wish the would come, so I can go "h-OM-e"

Instead, you've got that heavy metal scarecrow going...he'll show up in a week or two.

is a heavy metal scarecrow designed to scare away heavy metal crows? I'm not sure how heavy metal cows would fly, but anyone evil enough to build them would find a way.

Probably using a RAM-jet principle (very loud). Although I seriously doubt the aerodynamic properties of cows, let alone cows of the heavy metal persuasion.

My face is red. I meant crows but typed cows, and didn't notice the typo. But somehow, heavy flying cows is funnier. Even Mother Goose liked aviating cows.

"scarecrow/s" = racialism against crowsequal rights needed - scareetc

I would forgive farmers for trying to keep birds from eating their crops.

I read somewhere that Corn and potatoes are the best crops in terms of the number of calories they will produce per acre.

On a personal note, I have tried growing corn as a decorative plant. Happily, I didn't need to live on the cron cobs, as the corn produced none.

I already thought it might have been a typo.

Anyway, the result would be scared cows, considering you first have to get them over Mach 1 to fire up the RAM-jet.

Just wondering what the drag coëfficiënt of a cow is, and what would happen getting near Mach 6. Probably the invention of the doppler Mooo.

if it loads up ?

Ya gotta love the internet. It has information so useless or corrupt that it boggles the mind. It has Nigerian princes who want to scam you, a "deep net" that knows things about you that even you didn't know (mainly because they mixed you up with someone else of the same name).

And to top it all off, the very best info, which you desperately want, is is only available from sites that want you to pay for it.

our planets lowlife!

I didn't kno that Google ha tblock so many bogus emails!

over here there's also lowlife doing the same via landline phone calls, mainly aiming at "old" people

Well, I don't claim to be one of those "old" people, but I often get scam calls telling me that misuse use of my social security number has led to the government's' decision to discontinue it. There are many calls having to do with my electric bill.

In my email account, I sometimes get spam emails claiming that the Internal revenue service is going to punish me in some way. Th truth i, the I>R>SD> never sends emails, let leone the kind I receive.

Not the most obvious topic drift!

Great minds eschew he obvious.
