Habemus Papam!!.
You must feel very secure knowing that a man known in some circles as "God's Rottweiler" is looking out for your harvest. Will he be staying in the huts at any point? I don't want to stir anything up, but you might consider a surveillance camera... just in case. You need someone to watch the watchers. He'll understand.
ReplyDeleteIn slightly related news, it's almost Halloween. You may need to have a guard ASAP on the premises to watch out for Bunicula. Your carrots may not survive.
I don't fear much but BUNICULA is frightening, especially because of that voracious appetite for Las Zanahorias. It takes orange to a whole other level.
ReplyDeleteI had to look up zanahoria to be sure I knew the meaning-- your command of Spanish is impressive. In the NW, we have to be careful of lost sasqautches (sasquatchi?) that wonder in to town. They won't stop at the zanahorias.
