Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

P.T. Barnum hid a hot plate under some straw and charged admission to see the ' dancing chicken'. Said he, 'There's a sucker born every minute'.

That's one clean polar bear. He's gotta be young and not very battle scarred yet. My husband, who's written a couple of books about polar bears, says that bear has been out on the ice for awhile. The bears patrol the shores of Hudson Bay in the fall waiting for it to freeze enough to let them go out and hunt. They get cleaner and cleaner as they move about the ice and take frequent lovely icy baths in the ocean while they're capturing dinner.

Well ... whatever turns you on, I guess. I hate cold water.
