One side is very sandy and full of cacti and other such plants that require little water. The other side is irrigated. Every morning, snails migrate across the concrete path toward the water, and dozens are smashed underfoot or under bicycle tires. I have noticed that at the scene of many demised shell-draggers, sometimes a live cousin can be seen camped out in pause of the journey to water works. I never hang out long enough to examine the actual activity taking place because, well, because they do everything so slowly, but it makes me wonder if they're feeding off of the pureed carcasses?~ less

Smash it to smithereens casting its remains in bits and pieces hither and yon? A multi megaton bomb?

The landscape is littered with them. They identify themselves as "former Republicans" or Independents. Wherever they gather they are in mourning and disbelief at what has become of the GRAND OLD PARTY. As I said. I take no comfort in that. I liked the way things used to be. I miss it too.

Turnabout is fair isn't it? What animals can you compare to which homo saps? Or isn't it a two-way street?

We went early in the day and got in without cover and scored a table, but apparently they start charging a cover and charging for tables late in the day. Between the Cinco de Mayo celebration and the boxing game last night, they were charging $300 a table. Seriously. As the night wore on, it was just the two of us taking up this table and a group of guys came to watch the game. One volunteered to cover our tab if we let them share the table, so they could have it when we left. It made fiscal sense for him (the bill was less than a table) and he wasn't doing it to hit on us. He just wanted the table. Would you have let him pay if it was you? Have you let a stranger pick up your tab before? How much would you let a stranger pay? less

Maybe he will even go for the GOLD and bust out at 100K! Now THAT would be quite an accomplishment!
