Chick Fight!

 

No matter what your politics are, body shaming, in any way, is just wrong! But defending oneself from the attack is not only acceptable, but so is lodging an ethics complaint, and its a thing forever. MTG started the fight with a remark about Jasmine Crocket's physical appearance, and that should be recognized as an ethics violation! 

 

End of discussion.

 

 Sigh.

 

 

 

American Goldfinch

(Female American Goldfinch)

I saw some happy little American Goldfinch playing in a puddle the other day, and to tell you the truth, it's all I wanted to do for the remainder of that particular day. They were lovely. The male never left the female's side. He never strayed more then a foot or so away from her. And she spent most of her time, bathing in the cool water, and fluffing herself up. She was gorgeous, and clearly she was about to go out on the town with her love... Mr. Goldfinch. Imagine that, love is all around.

 

Aurora Borealis Whatnow?

Not The Aurora Borealis, But What A Gorgeous Moon!

 

Okay, so, the Aurora Borealis decided to take a vacation by visiting the whole world, but somehow it decided to avoid Stockton. It was also missing in Galt and Lodi. I looked for it, and didn't see it at all, well, maybe a little but it certainly wasn't the awesome vibrant event I hoped to see and I am just guessing and hoping that that is what I saw. The place to be, to truly be treated to a show, was the Bay Area, San Francisco in particular. You can see the beautiful gallery by clicking the link below.

 

So, I felt a little sad about it, but not for very long. The Aurora Borealis could come back for a visit. Sigh. I think it's probably more likely we will have an attention getting earthquake or possibly a sighting of a rare bird, before this opportunity comes back around. POUT! The thing about being my age that truly sucks is that feeling of do it now, because they days are going by fast. Ride the scary roller-coaster, take the helicopter tour, go out and search for rare celestial events! Take the whale tour, because...

 

TICK-TOCK!
