dj, Handel, shmandel. I, in my own words and no music, am saying how good it is to have you back. And thanks for the B&O return. Love dem Bs and Os.

olga, That shot is priceless. Thanks mucho.

Glad everybody likes that little shrew. Ragman, you don't have to look shrewish to be shrewish.

Jespah and I are enamored of baby rhinos. At one time we had a plan. We'd get one, and she'd keep it in her driveway. I'd come up to visit. Things didn't pan out.

@Roberta,
Have you seen the pictures of the Vietnamese pygmy hippopotamus baby that is all over the 'net recently. i'll see if i can find a link. precious baby. The keepers are bottle feeding it by hand 'cause the mother won't nurse it for some reason. Luckily this baby is healthy and thriving, too.

@Roberta,
Have you seen the pictures of the pygmy hippopotamus baby that is all over the 'net recently? It was born just last week in S. Africa. They named it after Prince Harry.

@Barry The Mod,
Another great pic, Barry. I have a question. The dog is a corporal. Do privates have to obey his orders? Just wondering.

@Roberta,
Absolutely Ms Roberta.A K9 is usually one rank higher than it's handler and,as it's handler can't do what a K9 is trained to do,when it discovers an IED or hidden drugs stash,therefor orders the handler to deal with it.
Have you heard Sergeant Stubby's story ?....

@djjd62,
Hey, dj. You come back. You bring back the B&Os. Now you want me to believe that a bunny is reading a book? Gimme a break.
