    Been working on siding for my carport/ breezeway. I'm using hardiplank. Crazy heavy stuff but I like that it's practically fire proof.

    It's rather akin to that old saying (and I paraphrase liberally):
    Anyone who considers himself to be adept at idiotproofing may be presumed never to have encountered a truly determined idiot.

    Something I've always noticed about classic Aussie cars is that many of them look like the front and the rear came from two differently styled vehicles.

    I have to imagine that cat was thinking "I'm standing here with all of my hyperacute sensory apparatus coated with stuff... and you grab a camera?!? I will kill you while you sleep."

    Why Did 488 Golden Retrievers Gather in Scotland?
    About every five years, owners and their dogs travel to Guisachan in the Highlands to celebrate the anniversary of the breed’s founding. This year’s edition was the biggest yet.

    Haggis hurling.

    You don't suppose that there was any Scotch involved in any of this, do you?
    Naaaaaah, of course not.

    That would lead to another kind of haggis hurling entirely.

    For a moment I thought you were talkin' about our erstwhile tabby, Timmy.
    That was his animal shelter-given name :p so we contrived a backstory for him.
    After he joined Clan Hardy, he was known as Tim: The Timorous Tomcat. Technically, he was an erstwhile tomcat, if ye catch my drift, but close enough.

    The Tim in repose:

    I was referring to the poor little wild haggis being hurled by that lassie. They should be left to run wild in the hills. However, if you can catch one they make pretty good scran with neeps and tatties.

    Yes, I knew that you knew, I just wanted a segue into writing more about haggis, which is delicious.

    You can take the "sometimes" outta there, as far as I'm concerned.
