@danon5,
In Manhattan a female coyote, believed to have arrived from New Jersey via the Holland Tunnel, has managed to evade police longer than those Texas bank robbers - was finally brought down with tranquillizer guns yesterday and is now under observation at an animal rescue center:

@High Seas,
Ohhh, that's all fine and wonderful --- except for one tiny little detail. The bank robbers were from Connecticut. Sorry bout that my sweetie -- same state as our former President - G.W. Bush. Yes, that's his birthplace......... In Texas we refer to him as a "CarpetBagger" and a damn Northern Aggressor. ((You must have noticed that I did not capitalize the letter "d" in damn!!))

I do appreciate your post.

Thank you................

@danon5,
Since we're still on this darling Wile E. Coyote page (the poor critter tied up downtown Manhattan traffic in knots for 2 days, but most drivers were rooting for her anyway) I thought I'd let you know European robbers leave their TX / CT associates in the dust - and that's just in the last several days:
Quote:
The Grand Casino is located little more than 200 meters from Switzerland's border with France. The men made off with 'several hundreds of thousands' of francs (dollars), police said. The incident recalls a brazen raid March 6 on a poker tournament at a downtown hotel in Berlin. In that heist, attackers armed with a revolver and a machete made off with ($327,300) in jackpot money.

@High Seas,
Yes, I saw the heist on TV - I'm surprised the casino's security was not able to stop them - AND, the local police were not able to stop them. As we heard on the old TV show - "Laugh In" - I'm reminded of the saying, "That's very interesting, and strange."

@ehBeth,
Clicked, Monday.


The Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment will be conducting a prescribed ecological burn this month at St. Johns Marsh Wildlife Area. The burn will rejuvenate fertility and remove above-ground remnants of the invasive grass, phragmites australis, from the marsh that was treated with herbicide last summer, according to MDNRE Wildlife Division.

"Burning the marsh will help facilitate the restoration of these areas with native vegetation by allowing light to reach the soil surface, increasing the opportunity for native seeds to grow and providing nutrients to stimulate plant growth," said Wildlife Biologist Ernie Kafcas.

@ehBeth,
Oh my...coyotes, heists, rain, sleet, and hail.

good grief...will May ever arrive???

HS, most of the coyotes living nearby were either removed or killed. Even the deer haven't visited! Very odd.

Is it the economy or March madness that are affecting people adversely? Probably a bit of both.

Alex, interesting. How will the burn affect wildlife?

@Stradee,
Don't forget fire, Stradee. I think the burn will be helpful to the wildlife in the area. This time of the year the green begins to show quickly. No deer??? They must all be down here!!! We have plenty.

The neighbors across the street have moved and our outside dog is getting too old to chase --- so, the deer are beginning to go through our front yard again. Our Chloe, poor girl, just lies there watching . We are starting - this year to bring her inside at night. She loves that. I go out as much as I can during the day and you can just see the joy in her face. We have as much fun as I can manage - then I hobble back in and she lays down to guard. Good times to the end.

@danon5,
The deer are still here, just not visiting often.

Could very well be the animals have plenty of food with all the new growth. Winter being normal for the first time in a few years, wildlife can live deep within the forest safely.

Aww, Chloe sounds so adorable! She doesn't stay indoors at night?

Wind blowing, sun shining, w/rain causing the dust to settle nicely (thank you very much weather) but still very cold. Hope all our Eastern friends are sitting high and dry. Terrible storm.

Stay warm ya all ~

@Izzie,
Thanks Iz........... I needed that. It's not easy these days. Patti had a good last two days - she made it to WalMart and lasted about 15mins. That's good these days. Hoping for better days.

Stradee, glad to hear the deer are still around. You know - of course - they have their "area" to roam in and just go from one end of the range to the other end of the range then back to the other end. That normally means they show up about each two to three weeks and stay around your house for about a day to two days. Then next two to three weeks there they are.......... So glad to see you and all the gooooodies you have for them!!

All clicked here in NE TX!!!!!!!!!!!

@ehBeth,
ehBeth, that pic reminds me of the travels we had in our PT Cruisers years ago. My goodness, that was fun. I think my PT Cruiser was painted with flowers like back during the 1960's ------!

I never did get to be a hippy - got drafted and my head was shaved. But, in my heart I was one of the guys.

Yeah, a drive through a Walmart would be fun ------!!! We could each have one of those electric go-carts --- all suuuppped up of course. Grin

@danon5,
Early clicks today. Here are two quotes I found last night as I was attempting to find out which American Co. is partnering with a Russian airline manufacturer to sell inflight tankers to the United States Air Force.

First quote in a row =
"In 2003 President Bush came to England for a state visit. He seemed to enjoy being here. He told me that driving on the left side of the road reminded him of his drinking days." Tony Blair

Second quote =
"During his visit to India, we took President Bush to a ceremonial meditation session. When the Guru told the President to empty his mind, Andy Card muttered, "He's way ahead of you."" Abdul Kalan, President of India

Oh, I have to do a Third quote =
Email
To: G. W. Bush
Re. Niger
"Sir, I urge you to practice saying (Niger) a few more times before the speech. A mispronunciation like the one you made yesterday in the Oval Office would be catastrophic." Karl Rove

And, the last is one I actually heard Bush say on Nat'l TV --- Remember when we were referring to French Fries as "Freedom Fries? President Bush on Nat'l TV said, "The French don't have a word for entrepreneur"

WOW!!
