    Other than high heat and 90+ mph wind storms, it's pretty normal at my house. Mow the lawn, feed the birds. This guy was crawling on my stone ledge yesterday.

    Had one of these fly out of a tree and flew right into my helmet as I was riding down a residential street one time...it was like getting hit with a rock!!

    Is it wild boar that are dangerous or just warthogs? Both?

    Are both made out of bacon?

    I think they are more of a pest than anything, but like anything wild, ya just never know!

    I hear they are pretty good eatin’ when they’re young, but that’s a pretty big boy there.

    They can get your blood pumping and improve your tree climbing skills in the woods. This one attacked from rear. An application of metric math solved the problem.

    It’s worth noting for sure… so I’ll just add that something similar happened to my wife in Fresno, of all places.

    She was competing in an equestrian event and was parked at a hotel overnight in our almost 20 year old Mercedes-Benz.

    When she came out next morning, she found a note from a young rider from Palo Alto staying at the same hotel. She had backed into the car in a borrowed pickup truck and pushed it over the cement bump at the end of the space (the ubiquitous things that frequently delineate the end of a space).

    Her dad was a doctor from 🇫🇷 working in the 🇺🇸. He didn’t want to bother the owners of the truck his daughter had borrowed with an insurance claim so he asked us to get a couple of estimates for the repairs and sent us a check for $3,500.*

    Not everyone has lost all sense of decency and community spirit. I know I’ll do the same if I ever make a similar mistake.

    I’ve been away for over a week, but this might be the stupidest post I’ve ever read. 😑

    How on earth is that about me? Just put me on ignore. Please. 🤦‍♂️

    Recent excavations have shown that the "giant heads" on Easter Island are actually buried "stone giants" whose heads emerged from the earth..

    My guess is they were not buried, just centuries of debris accumulated around them.

    Not exactly "recent."
    This was big news 10 years ago, but the scientists actually knew this going back more than 100 years.

    Well Sir (or Madam, not trying to gender assign) I take umbrage
    (gawd I love that word)
    at the inference that that is the stupidest post you've ever read ! 😳

    For instance:
    "She was competing in an equestrian event and was parked at a hotel overnight in our almost 20 year old Mercedes-Benz"

    Now, a n'er do well would make some sort of untowards comment like
    "Oh, what size saddle does she wear ?" 🤔
    or
    certainly ungentlemanly inferences regarding parking at a hotel overnight
    "Why didn't she just get a room ?"

    As you can see, some of us Polkies are successful graduates of the "Mr Nightly 'Careful What You Say, That's My Wife !" graduate school.

    I'll now retire to my LazyBoy, saitisfied that, once again, I've been able to bring edification and edumacashun to the masses 🧐
