Peanuts are good. Chipmunks and squirrels also like them. And so does my dog. I can't give my dog too many because then she has chunky poop. Do I get chunky poop? Nope. I guess some things human can digest better than dogs.

Also, did you know that corn kernels are good snack for geese?

I also had some berries. Bears like berries, as well as nuts, so it's as if I ate a bear's meal. Does anyone else ever eat something and imagine they are an animal, or someone from a different time?

Like once I went on a diet of bread and grape juice because I was pretending to eat like someone in the 1500's france (bread and wine). Since I was a vegetarian I couldn't eat meat, and I soon realized that without meat, they would have been severely malnourished.

Sometimes I also eat beans on toast, and drink tea to pretend that I am British.

When I ate fish for a bit, I would eat salmon and pretend I was a bear.

Speaking of strange diets, I had a dream an older guy died, but he was healthy. So when he died they skinned him and chopped his body into portions to eat later on. I watched as they did this and realized that it was very difficult to skin the fingers, especially since there is very little meat there to compensate for the effort. The grandson of the dead guy (this little kid, maybe 7) was really sad they skinned him because he wanted to bury him by the river.

I thought, what a strange culture where they eat their dead.
Can't you guys even just imagine it?

  I am intrigued by medieval England and would love to travel back there to visit.  In my mid-20s
  I dreamed of moving to England long-term and earning a living working in some medieval-village theme park. 
  I imagined I would eat lots of turnip!  :laugh:  I called the British Embassy in New York to ask about the possibility
  of living there, but the lady on the phone said I could only vacation, not stay to work.  Alas.

So sad. Maybe you can join the Amish? Maybe you can marry a blacksmith and he can make you some swords.

  I dunno if anyone marries into the Amish.  Anyway, I'm too attached to my internet and phone!  :laugh:

I didn't make this random observation.  Charles Ramsey did. 

"I knew something was wrong when a little pretty white girl runs into a black man's arms, I said, 'Something is wrong here'. Dead giveaway."

That is one of m all-time favorite quotes from now on.
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

Charles Ramsey is awesome. :thumbup:

How many neighbors would have turned away and pretended they didn't hear a thing? Quite a few I bet these days.

No, it's holiday tomorrow. It's almost always lots of people out in Sweden on the day before a holiday.
