And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I used to have a cow I named Peaches. I'd feed her out of my hand. It was a hoot because she'd take the whole peach into her mouth, roll it around and in five or ten seconds spit the pit out onto the ground. Pa-tooey. Hilarious.
She'd actually come to me when I called her because she knew I'd have a treat for her.
She was worth it. Popped out a beautiful, healthy calf year after year and never had a health problem herself. If they were all like her cattle ranching would be a walk in the park.
White rhino. Depending upon which source you believe, "white" doesn't have anything to do with color. In this usage it's allegedly a corruption of the Africaans word, weidt - meaning "wide" and referring to the width of the upper lip. Look for a picture of a black rhino, and the difference will be obvious.

Makes sense. Since both white and black rhinos are the same grey color, 'white' has to refer to something other than color.

Given the bracelet I was kinda hoping the critter *would* chomp down.

DeleteWe had 2 rhinos at the zoo, and one died. Now the remaining one hangs out as close as it can get (~10ft) to the visitors.
