It would seem The 80 year old world leaders have completely forgotten their youth and what they were protesting about. It's an Awakening today just how devious getting old can turn you to the greed side.

Apparently ol' John couldn't "imagine" life with no possessions. His net worth was around $200 million ($620 million in today's money) before he was murdered. It wouldn't surprise me if he carried a picture of chairman Mao.

I just love it when rich people tell me I don't need anything. Like when Bono sang that "what you don't have you don't need it now", or when Bradley Nowell told everyone to "take a tip from me, take all of your money, give it all to charity". Those are easy things to say when you don't want for anything.

I much prefer Daniel Johns' take: "You say that money, isn't everything, But I'd like to see you live without it".

Apologies for the hijack - but this is [obviously] a bit of a sore spot with me.

Guten Morgen mein Heron

Went fishing again this morning. These two here, a Great Blue Heron and a Willet always come around when I show up. Because they know I have treats!

^ well done, and great photos

Eichhörnchen · 03-26-23, 01:59 PM

Yeah, I love the photos too

Have you given these guys names yet?

Never thought to give them names. But I do talk to them and call them little beggars, especially the Willet he waits around close to me like like a dog looking for scraps. The Heron however as soon as he sees me take a fish out of the cooler I get this feeling he’s ready to go a few rounds and fight me for it. He’s very much a wild animal with an intense look in his eyes.

The bait on the cooler was for my hook. The Heron will not be denied he just waltzed right up and snatched it. I wasn’t going to argue he’s got a big beak and talons that could do some damage. He can have it.

The little one you should call Reece and the big cheeky bugger Vinnie

Rockstar · 03-27-23, 07:13 AM

Reece and Vinnie, excellent. “so let it be written, so let it be done."

Rockstar · 03-27-23, 10:42 AM

Didn’t see Vinnie today. But Reece swooped in for a quick bite.

Eichhörnchen · 03-27-23, 10:57 AM

Maybe if you stop catching fish one day Vinnie will eat Reece - make sure you get a photo

Buggery is a novel concept!

As Jim would say: I resemble that remark!!

Be careful or I might swoop down and leave my mark!!

I'm feeling rather flash in my latest purchase. I've been looking for one for ages. Genuine sheepskin, found in a charity shop raising money for Ukraine, retail price of ~£300 and I got it for a steal at £50! We do love a bargain! 😁
