Zebra

I finally got to see a zebra upclose.

1. they stink! &

2. I now know if they are black with white stripes or white with black stripes.

The key is to look at the inside of their legs. The black spot is actually their base color. So the zebra is black with white stripes.

Mind blown! 🙂

Fertility of the sea

I came across this really powerful Japanese Taiko drum ensemble

got me really thinking and doing more research on the composer: Eitetsu Hayashi. The title : Fertility of the sea.

More about Hayashi San: Eitetsu Hayashi (林英哲 Hayashi Eitetsu)(born February 2, 1952) is an acclaimed Japanese musician best known for his solo performance work in taiko.[1] Hayashi joined the group Ondekoza at an early age. Later, after parting from group, helped found the taiko group Kodo, though he quickly left to begin a solo career.[2] Hayashi has performed in notable venues such as Carnegie Hall in 1984 and was the first featured taiko performer at the institution.[3][4] He is also the recipient of multiple awards recognizing the cultural value of his work

Of Facebooks Spammer policy!

It was my birthday yesterday- a lot of people posted wishes on my wall.. so I decided to respond to them all…

and this is the message FB gives me:
Facebook’s systems determined that you were going too fast when posting on walls. You must significantly slow down.”


I thought since FB has an investment from MS- it might work that way – so i logged out and logged back in again.. but i think its a little more advanced… after three more posts… it gave me the same message…

finally .. i had to open multiple windows and comment on all of them. Crap!

How to hire a helping hand! #Joke

got this off reddit! really hilarious!

She was a very good-looking woman and determined to keep the ranch, but knew very little about ranching, so she decided to place an ad in the newspaper for a ranch hand.

Two cowboys applied for the job. One was gay and the other a drunk.

She thought long and hard about it, and when no one else applied she decided to hire the gay guy, figuring it would be safer to have him around the house than the drunk.

He proved to be a hard worker who put in long hours every day and knew a lot about ranching.

For weeks, the two of them worked, and the ranch was doing very well.

Then one day, the rancher’s widow said to the hired hand, “You have done a really good job, and the ranch looks great. You should go into town and kick up your heels.” The hired hand readily agreed and went into town one Saturday night.

One o’clock came, however, and he didn’t return.

Two o’clock and no hired hand.

Finally he returned a round two-thirty, and upon entering the room, he found the rancher’s widow sitting by the fireplace with a glass of wine, waiting for him.

She quietly called him over to her..

“Unbutton my blouse and take it off,” she said.

Trembling, he did as she directed. “Now take off my boots.”

He did as she asked, ever so slowly.. “Now take off my socks.”

He removed each gently and placed them neatly by her boots.

“Now take off my skirt.”

He slowly unbuttoned it, constantly watching her eyes in the fire light.

“Now take off my bra..” Again, with trembling hands, he did as he was told and dropped it to the floor.

Then she looked at him and said, “If you ever wear my clothes into town again, you’re fired.”
