Why don’t “we” have those tire shredders that, while they can “prevent” wrong way entry to roadways, you are not going very far or very fast after running through one? Seems obvious to me!

RANT: The demise of “the land of opportunity”

Monday, March 2, 2015

Nah, it’s not about gender; nor is it about age; nor is it about skills; nor is it about accomplishing stuff.

It’s about who’s “in the club” and who’s not.

Sadly, it’s about our demise as “the land of opportunity”.

imho!

*** begin quote ***

Sproinging is the act of bouncing on all four legs at the same time. It is believed that sproinging allows the animal to see further afield while moving fast. Deer frequently sproing when fleeing potential predators. Llamas use sproinging as a way of showing off; displaying their ability to lead the herd. Llamas also use play as a means to show off. The Llama Sanctuary

*** end quote ***

Hmmm, maybe that what I should be doing more of “spronging”?

Never heard of that word before. You?
