BREAKING: Punxsutawney Phil is out on work release as part of his punishment for calling for 6 more weeks of winter. Now he’s cleaning up these giant, oversized mounds of dirty ice he helped create everywhere. Officials say it’s part of his rehabilitation. He made the mess. Now he’s digging himself out of it.

-Catherine Sauvage


You play, you play the accordion
In a bar that no longer has a name
Because people are used to dancing there
The comparsita

That you play for them every night
For a salary that doesn't make a dent
Because your job is to make people dance

Mister Georgina
Whether your bagpipes shine like day
Or are dark like the loves
That go out onto the dance floor
To find something to dream about, something to dance to
La Comparsita

You don't care because your job
Is to make people dance, not think
Do your thing, that's your life
Mister Georgina

“Your life... my life... their lives...”

Awww so cute, probably the inspiration to my picture this morning. I have never seen a white squirrel until your pictures of one. When I go to Canada they have very dark gray almost black squirrels there. I have the usual light gray ones here.

Ours are fawn colored in south Texas, and so cute. All gone now, at least on my block, eaten up by stray cats, or maybe from chemtrails or something else. Whenever I walked outside they would stop what they were doing and look at me, actually make eye contact. Baby and juvenile ones would scamper down a tree when I returned from a walk, like they were saying "glad to see you got home safely".
