  <title>This is different:</title>

  <description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thebalitimes.com/2010/06/15/man-made-to-marry-cow/&quot;&gt;Man marries a cow.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This goes about as badly as might be expected. Especially for the cow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=mariness&amp;ditemid=113014&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>This may well be my favorite quote from the entire British election:</title>
  <link>https://mariness.dreamwidth.org/100400.html</link>
  <description>From &lt;a href=&quot;http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/05/06/live-blogging-election-night-in-britain/?hp&quot;&gt;The New York Times&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;blockquote&gt;Conservative leader David Cameron has held his very safe seat in Witney. He was immediately congratulated by the candidate from the Monster Raving Loony Party, who stood right next to him and shook his hand.&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, if only some United States politicians would admit their affiliation with the Monster Raving Loony Party, we&apos;d be all set.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Wikipedia has more, probably inaccurate, information about the Monster Raving Loony Party &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Official_Monster_Raving_Loony_Party&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. I must say that I cannot support their entire platform; I don&apos;t think I could &lt;em&gt;exist&lt;/em&gt; without semi-colons.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=mariness&amp;ditemid=100400&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>But he&apos;s not waving his tail in time to the music</title>
  <link>https://mariness.dreamwidth.org/96701.html</link>
  <description>Still not feeling the blogging bug (or, it seems, any other writing bugs this morning) so, in the meantime, here is a dancing dog:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width=&quot;640&quot; height=&quot;385&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/SGq1641reC8&amp;amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowFullScreen&quot; value=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowScriptAccess&quot; value=&quot;sameDomain&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/SGq1641reC8&amp;amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;true&quot; allowscriptaccess=&quot;sameDomain&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; height=&quot;385&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like that the tail is waving to an entirely different beat through most of this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=mariness&amp;ditemid=96701&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>Ah, Florida</title>
  <link>https://mariness.dreamwidth.org/3402.html</link>
  <description>Wildlife spotted today:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One eagle, one hawk, three bright red cardinals (or perhaps one bright red cardinal flying around a lot), one bunny, multiple squirrels, and...three native Florida ostriches. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe not all that native.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;(Naturally, was my camera anywhere near me when I was near the ostriches? No.)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=mariness&amp;ditemid=3402&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>
