If they had alligators and snakes in a moat at the southern border, why wouldn’t it all decay like all other southwest tourist traps. Like sad and/or dead alligators and snakes and a dried out moat and a sun faded “Don’t Cross!” sign?

Also, how do you budget for alligators and snakes? Like if they capture and consume a lot of people, does the food budget go down?

The original plan was a tribute version of the Great Wall of China, so that was kind of an incremental move toward Earth for him...

I once trespassed on Air Force property as a teen. Checked out plane wreckage. The only guy protecting the place eventually showed up. Old coot in a bathrobe slippers and a gun who lived in the trailer on the lot. Just saying! An alligator would have been an upgrade.

We (or just I) were talking raccoons on Burn It Down playlist last night. About that time they attacked the band Prince Rama (not to blame the victim, but it seems to me if you get attacked by raccoons in the park, you were probably messing with raccoons in the park)

Oh well… Yesterday was Raccoon Appreciation Day.

I saw a bunch of baby raccoons stealing from cats in Sunset Park near the bus depot. Hard to know what to feel at that moment. But the baby raccoons sure were cute.

Due to recent budget constraints, playlists have been removed from the agenda. If the fundraising campaign is successful, they may return someday.

@RichardS: That’s exactly why Poles (like me) and the Irish tend to be bloated, pasty, sensitive to the sun and get into fights all the time. All that pale white nutrition.

Potatoe
Potatoe is an older but still correct spelling of the word more commonly word spelled potato. It turns out that Dan Quail and the young student were both correct in there spellings. The e at the end of potatoe was largely dropped by the end of the 20th century.
