Laa bams!

lambs

After the day’s shopping, I asked Uncle B to drop me off in a field with a tripod and a nice long lens. The main bike path out of town goes through this field STUFFED with sheep and lambs. You can sit in the path and the little wigglers trot right up to you and stare.

Sadly, I’m a crap photographer. But electrons are free, and I had a good time getting sunburned and windblown and sheep watching.

Jesus christ, they’re dumb. Adorable, but stupid.

Now are you talking about us Yanks, or the other sheep?

And delicious. Don’t forget delicious.

And you should be shooting film, like all real photogaphers.

For shame.

I see, counting lambs unlike sheep, doesn’t make you sleepy?

Yay! Put my money on the white one!
Still have their wriggly tails, too — milk-o-meters :).

Glad I came here after dinner — mutton.

God that makes me hungry. Sadly where I live lamb is about £16.00 a kilo, so I don’t have it as often as I’d like. Maybe I’ll splash out this weekend and make my famous Rogan Josh.

So, are you guys enjoying the coverage of the agitator in chief and his Klingon bride. I have to give my ears a bleach enema the way the press keeps banging one off everytime they see them.

I even heard some Brit chick, reporter..mag editor…whoever, describe the warthog thusly, ‘she is sexual’. WTF?

No. The TV is staying off until this whole pointless charade is well and truly over. The media, the BBC in particular, is plumbing new depths of stomach-turning sycophancy with Obama and I don’t want to be witness to it.

What’s particularly tragic is that it’s not just the BBC. The drooling and fawning has even spread to the Right-wing press and some of the worst of it is to be found in the Daily Mail.

God only knows what that arrogant arsehole will have to do before the media starts applying the same criteria to him that they do everyone else.

Heh. El presidente is the reason why I’ve kicked the TV watching habit, especially in respect to the 24 hour news channels(which I use to be addicted to).

Seriously, if he sneezes, they go to a live shot of him. Even the leftist students on my university campus agree that they’re tired of seeing him all the time.

Insanity, thy name is Obama.

… it’s not too out of place that I read this originally as “ALLIGATOR in chief”, is it?

No, because ‘eat’ you, he will.

True that, but, do you read the comments? One story I read had 200 comments. Ninety-eight percent of them were negative.

As a chef, I find that photograph to be somewhat… stimulating.

That’s another thing I loved about living in England; you knew the lamb you were roasting was very fresh and from just up the road a ways.

You wouldn’t believe how un-adorable they get by slaughter time.

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
