no more baskers

it's been a nice warm sunny day so i rode the black adder (new bike, cool name eh?) up to the turtle lake today but there weren't any turtles. looking at a log full of turtles always lifts my spirits but it looks like i'll have to wait until 2010 to enjoy watching the little baskers.

it's just as well that they've dug into the mud for the winter with those feckin olympics about to invade our fair city. i wouldn't want the chinese speed skating team taking a tour of the lake and making dinner out of my soul mates.

in other news, we got lucky and found a ship load of TAMIL ASYLUM SEEKERS. most people want to ship them back to where they came from but the professional refugee advocates want to put out the welcome mat.

black adder, sounds like the name of a snake.

The whole emigration thing is complex. As for this country I think my (our) ancestors should have stayed in their home countries and fixed the problems there instead of coming here without invite and taking everything they could, killing for it if they had to.

In that sense I think the Tamils should stay home and fix things there. Besides, at this point in time Canada damn sure hasn't got room for them, job wise anyway.

I hesitate to use it cuz I saw it on a church reader board but, GROW WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED. Meaning grow where you are born.

I have some magic beans, beans, beans, the musical food, the more you eat the more you toot. The more you toot the better you feel so why not eat beans for every meal?

I've heard of a flu that comes from there, Tamilflu!

black adder..one of my favorite PBS tv shows...
what the hell are tamils.?

Ananda girl said...

When in doubt, I always vote for magic beans!

But seriously, Canada does not want to make the same idiotic mistake the US has made.

Love the bike name and I am hoping Canada looks at your Poll and goes for the maagic beans.

uno - whales are having a tough time too. need i say more.

bbc - i'm glad that i was planted in a prosperous water rich country.

tex - i wonder if rumsfeld is still making big bucks from tamilflu?

yellowdog - tamils are pissed off sri lankans.

ananda - we already have lots of magic beans from selling oil companies to you guys and the chinese.

sage - me and baldrick are tight.

Nit Wit said...

More magic beans are always a good idea. Plant them and open up a giant safari.
M granddaughter was sitting in my lap when I opened your blog to show her Ruby. She now knows about the feed the turtles thing. She'll want to visit a lot more.

BBC said...

Water rich here also, and I'm thankful for that. I can and do drink the water off my roof being as I'm not hooked up to any other water system here.

On the up side, I don't have a water bill. Or a garbage bill, or a sewer bill, etc.

That explains why I don't have a mate but I'm getting okay with that. At least I have extra money and owe the world nothing.

billy pilgrim said...

mr wit - thanks for spreading the gospel of turtles to your grand daughter.

bbc - drinking the water off the top of your roof, i'm impressed.

Sling said...

I don't know what Tamils are,but you can bet they're up to no good.

billy pilgrim said...

sling - i'm not sure if the boat is full of good tamils or bad tamils. our government will probably spend 100 million bucks to try and figure it out.

secret agent woman said...

Do the turtles burrow intot he mud for the winter? I saw a few snapping turtles out at the lake the other day, so they are still out and about here.

billy pilgrim said...

secret - they do burrow into the mud and hold their breath for about 6 months.
