Good one… from Patricia.

It snowed hard enough here to close the hill
and it will all be gone by quitting time.

He is foremost among those I would hear praised.
I know that Jeff is one of the most honest, hard-working people I know. He loafs and lazes with a will (and generally with lots of help from me), but when he’s set himself to a task he’s committed, dedicated, focused and determined to get results. He will hold his tongue rather than tell a lie; he’s aware of his cognitive biases and doesn’t pretend to be perfect in his pursuit of truth, justice and being let the fuck alone.
I understand that the world is made of in-groups, and that it doesn’t matter what you can do, or how smart or logical or disciplined or calm you are, if you’re not a member of that in-group you will not be trusted and your motives will always be suspect. I am upset to be watching my brother, whom I trust with my life, who wouldn’t pick up a nickel that wasn’t his whether or not somebody was watching, whose ethics and personal standards are of the highest calibre, get treated like he’s untrustworthy. I’m prejudiced – but of course! – but that doesn’t make me wrong.
I can hear Paul’s voice in my head.
He was quoting an album, Perth County Conspiracy I think, or maybe Firesign Theatre,
“Eight dollars and fifty cents! I ain’t paying Eight dollars and fifty cents to go in nowhere!”
I love the US (as much as I have criticized its government) and the American people, but honestly you guys are starting to PISS ME OFF.
I don’t think it’s right to make costumes for animals
But you can’t argue with the results.
Example 3. Previously posted, the amazing Beedogs.com site.
Example 4. Not precisely a costume, but definitely hoomin triggered.
Example 5. You have to scroll all the way down to the beginning of Feb to get the chinchillas in hats, but by that time you’ve read some Sleep Talkin Man and thus my aim is accomplished. You’ve also seen a deformed monkey, but I’m not mocking the monkey.
Now some pigs.
Example 6. Shopped but amusing.
Example 7. A modern classic, previously posted.
Example 8. Ditto.
