That could be an extremely aggressive guard goose. The kid’s in very good hands (beaks / wings).

Is this an illustration from a story? Why would a crowd of people be running in terror from a cathedral (Notre-Dame)?

My hummingbirds don’t like bees around my feeders. I have to remove them for a few days so the bees forget where they are.

I have looked up the pricing on line.
I’m sure the product exists, but……
There are three sites that claim to be different companies, but they all have the same graphics and “sale” pricing.
Iffy, iffy, iffy.

And that is not a photograph of the actual product either.

I would be afraid to sit on that chair. It would only let me up when it found a better place in the sun.

Easy.
The sum of the first three panels is two times the last one (minus the scale, of course ;-)): 54 kg – 27 kg.

The answer (with work shown, Susan) is….

 
1)  The bunny and cat weigh in at 10 kgs.
2)  The bunny and dog weight in at 20 kgs.
3)  The cat and dog weigh in a 24 kgs. 4)  24 kgs. – 20 kgs. = 4 kgs. ∴ The cat weighs 4 kgs. more than the bunny.
Designating the bunny’s weight as “x”.
(dropping the units for convenience)
 
x + (x +4) = 10
Collecting like terms
2x + 4 = 10
2x = 6
x = 3
∴ The bunny weighs 3 kgs.
going back to line 4
3 + 4 = 7
∴ The cat weighs 7 kgs.
going back to line 2
20 – 3 = 17
going back to line 3
24 – 7 = 17
∴ The dog weighs 17 kgs.
summing up
17 + 7 + 3 = 27
∴ The ? on the last scale translates to 27 kgs.

Or you could just do it the easy way – look at my solution.

Chocloate?

Hey, chocloate must equal diarrhea. Maybe it’s a different color of diamond, kind of like what’s in a baby’s diaper.

Today’s Songs:
1. ‘You Can’t Rollerskate in a Buffalo Herd,’ 2. ‘You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me,’ 3. ‘You Give Love A Bad Name,’ and 4. ‘You May be Right,’ and the ‘Cheap Thrills Cuisine’ recipe 5. ‘Chicken Breast Roulade (low fat).’
1. Roger Miller wrote it (there will be at least one more of his on list two). I’ll leave you to look up the Muppet version (it’s one of the show’s few skits someone didn’t think through).
2. The original Italian song, sung by its co-composer Pino Donaggio (Vito Pallavicini / Jody Miller) is below.
3. A complete rewrite. Bonnie Tyler’s release of the same composition with the original lyrics is below.
4. The album version which has the ‘breaking glass’ opening instead of the ‘one , two,- one two three four’ of the video.
5. Skinless is optional as far as I’m concerned. Two sheets of plastic wrap will not work, the top one (even the ‘heavy-duty’ type) will have a hole in it from the first blow. The flattening is better achieved using a rolling pin with your weight on it using a meat cutting board as the support. Shut the oven off at the end of 20 minutes, and leave in the oven for 15 minutes more. For sticky rice, heat your measure up in the water to simmer only (this will take 30 to 35 minutes) for cooked rice with separate grains coat your measure with oil or melted butter and pour it into boiling water and reduce the burner to simmer level for 20 minutes (remember with either method you can always add salt at the table if you want).
 
Side note:
I’m getting more out of this project than a list of the U.R.L.s of songs I like which was the primary object when I started (today’s set being a good example).
So once again, thanks, nighthawks, for letting me do this   🙂 .
As it stands right now, list two will start on Wednesday.

I ran into more obscure WordPress programming rules posting the above.
One of them is you have to add Emojis after the comment has been posted, or the spoiler box won’t work.

Pop told me that the diamond he got mom was officially a brown, but it took someone that knew what they were looking at to tell.
Chocolate diamonds are one of the shrewdest and most dishonest marketing campaigns ever.
The jeweler that sold it to pop thought that pop had noticed for some reason and gave pop an extra discount. Beyond what it would get for just being a brown.

I’m wondering how they got the brown inclusion into the diamond. Must have been marinating a looooong time!

So, after I got the new phono working, we were listening to Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels with probably an early version of twerking (Shake A Tail Feather). There are only so many parts of the body that can be shown off to attract the other sex, so this works. It made me think of this version of very fun body positivety by Reverend Billy C Wirtz:
