Hakuna matata!

Hakuna matata is a Swahili phrase that is literally translated as
"There are no worries". It is sometimes translated as "no worries",
although is more commonly used similarly to the American English phrase "no problem".

I once saw a sign that said "sin is death" but if "all deaths are suicide (linda goodman)" and suicide is sin, then shouldnt "death is sin" be more appropriate? when organic is used to describe food then you know we have come to a dark age in history IP: Logged |

Even though it snowed in 49 states in the US last year (all but Florida). So, anything is possible.------------------

There are 52 countries in Africa, each with its distinct geographic features affecting weather patterns,
"but does it snow?".The answer is "yes, it does". In fact there are even a few small ski resorts in Morocco, courtesy of the Atlas Mountains. Tunisia and Algeria got snow-laden a few years ago during a particularly cold winter. Snow even fell in the Sahara desert in 1979, but it lasted just half an hour. Heading further south, snow does fall (on higher elevations), even close to the equator. Regular snow fall has created ice-capped peaks (although most are fast disappearing) on Kenya's Mount Kenya, Tanzania's Mount Kilimanjaro; Uganda's Rwenzori Mountains and Ethiopia's Semien Mountains. But it's not enough to ski. For that, you have to head all the way south. South Africans can actually build snowmen somewhat regularly during the winter months (June - August) especially those living in the inland regions of the Eastern and Northern Cape provinces. Sutherland is considered to be the coldest town in South Africa with temperatures going well below freezing throughout the winter. There's a ski resort in the Drakensberg mountains, called Tiffindell
but a snow maker is essential to make it through the season. Despite its wonderful penguin population, it very rarely snows in Cape Town. And the chilliest country in Africa? The tiny kingdom of Lesotho. It's in the mountains and it has the highest low point of any country in the world (wrap your mind around that one, son). There are a few pistes here and the skiing isn't so bad in the Maluti Mountains.

Not when they have dug 60 foot long tunnels all over ones yard, so when the ground collapses it becomes very dangerous.
Not cute when some of those tunnels done by 10 to 30 pound beasts, go under ones house, causing porches to break off of the house and the roofs to fall.
Not cute under the driveway when a burrow collapses and ones car has a tire or two,
stuck in a 2 feet deep hole.
Or they eat all the garden plants and young trees from the bottom up, killing the trees/plants,
and defoliate the fruit trees and rip and chew off branches.
Chipmunks and squirrels have chewed some of the electric wiring in the house and so we lost power to several outlets and lights.
Some got into the ceilings and p!ssed so much it leaked through.
Get this;
groundhogs also chew brake and gas lines under cars.
They ate and clawed huge gaping holes 1 to 5 feet wide and a foot or more tall,
in ours and several neighbors wooden structures,
and gnawed things stored there.
Horses and people can break legs when their leg gets caught in 1 to 3 feet deep hidden collapsed tunnels.
The cost of repairing the damage theses creatures do is very very expensive.
A snarling growling 30 pound groundhog encountered in ones basement is a very dangerous animal.
They will charge at you and attempt to bite and claw.
Forget having a garden with them around.
They will definitely destroy it.IP: Logged |

No need for apologies Randall.{{{hugs}}}
From a distance they can look kinda cute.
I think lots of wild animals are cute but not when they damage/destroy my property and home.IP: Logged |
