Random Thoughts or Whatever

More on aging/time flies thing. Yeah, I know, but.... A couple of days ago, I walking home from the mall and I saw a young man who works at the Dunks near me walking home from work. I was going to crack a joke about "It's time to make the donuts, I made the donuts." Then, I realized that he wasn't born yet when those commercials aired. Talk about feeling old!
Lost my father yesterday and my mother a year ago , that really makes you feel old ! But I consider myself very lucky to have had my parents around as long as I did !
 
Sorry for your loss. I feel the same way, blessed to have had my parents as long as I did. The best part is they never got divorced. First marriage for both of them.
Mine too ! When they married my dad was 18 my mom was 16 ! They grew up and old together and raised a family full of love ! They left the poverty of West Virginia and made good lives for them selves and us and still sent money and helped their family members back in the hills !
 
Coyotes are kinda essential to keep the ecosystem balanced. Darn rabbits can multiply, without a calculator. :)
The reason rabbits multiply so fast is because there are a lot of predators who eat them. Foxes, coyotes, owls, osprey, eagles, mountain lions and bobcats just to name a few. Also, house cats have been known to eat bunnies. So, it's their only defense against extinction. I have a neighbor who hunts rabbits because the predators around here can't keep up and he said they taste good. Saves money on groceries.

Taste like chicken ! At least that’s what my brother law says !
 
In times past when a real acoustic piano`s key`s playing surfaces were veneered in real ivory, sometimes the tongue in cheek expression about the player playing was commented that he/she was "tickling the ivories" !
Yes and there was a joke about that on "The Golden Girls" Dorothy and Rose are supposed to be in a talent show and Dorothy says "Tickle the Ivories Rose." Rose goes "Okay, gitchy-gitchy" while moving her fingers in a tickle-like fashion over the keys. Dorothy gives her that classic death stare. Funny as hell!
 
Also, house cats have been known to eat bunnies.
Friendly Gray Stray, who taught herself to be one hell of a hunter, caught and ate her fair share of rabbits, in addition to squirrels, mice, birds and lizards. The rabbits and squirrels I saw her "with" were not adults. Too large a prey is my thinking.

Yes, a full grown rabbit would be too big for most house cats. One of my former neighbors had a cat that used to get bunnies a lot.

Back in the 80s, I had a cat who used hunt all the time. He was constantly getting squirrels, chipmunks, birds and anything else around. He was one strong cat. You could actually see his muscles through his fur! Total character when interacting with humans.
