Haverford, the next little town over from me, has 19041 zipcode. More importantly, in Haverford College pond there lives a very large snapping turtle. We first saw it as my son was standing at pond's edge with his toes in the water and pointing said "dad, look at that turtle" except what he thought was the turtle turned out to be just the head of this snapping turtle. I estimate it is close to 3 ft. across it's shell and longer in the head-to-tail direction.

On the subject of turtles you allocated for this new page, I deem this page, "Tortuga tally".

Man, this music is smooth. Oh, yeah, turtle picture, I found it four days ago:

(I think I can hotlink this) :|

I'm calling this one: "If we can't jump, let's snuggle"

Those are badass, BadNick.

Can you confirm whether that is an ostrich/emu biting that small turtle?

I'd also love to know your source (google is nowhere near that good).

Yes, Jetee.
I want to know these things too.

Meanwhile:

for all my life

it's amazing how simple these lyrics are to remember, even though it's been decades since I've heard this song

pretty sure it's an ostrich, Jetee.

Emu's wouldn't harm a turtle, as we aussies are a more genteel breed

quite right, Zook...probably.

The only clue I found there was this "reader comment" which is sort of funny since the website is "nature photography...bookmarked!" Pixdaus, page 5 of tagged as food photos

"...Nature nothin! Someone fed that turtle to the Ostrich to get that shot. The two animals are from different continents..."

turtles are from every continent, and the sea too.

The last day of August.

My last chance to say, good morning, Bob.

Bob is a Palindrome:

Becoming some more
is so much the matter comes
than doing has it.

(Apologies, realizing that makes nonsense.)

how when all is made more manifest,
has a taste for fraught perplexities."

Hell Bent for Leatherback?

I'd like me some Boots of Spanish Leather



Btw, I thought I was being so up-to-date and cool by starting to use Internet Explorer 64-bit version running in my home Vista system, but then I discovered that the latest flash players are not compatible yet with the 64-bit setup and therefore do not display these youtube imbedded thingies...so I had to down-date to the lower bit version and live happily ever after.

I know this be the christened page of turtles, but I just found this, and you'll be pleasantly surprised:

Fool’s Gold Stack

Pancakes layered between peanut butter and bacon and topped with maple syrup.

That's delectable. My salivary glands are pleading.
I would probably be full after a few bites, though.

Here's an eddyble turtle:

I think I'm gonna retreat into my void until I get inspired again.

I just noticed there's only about ~25-33 active posters in a given week, month, and a fair 85% of them avoid me like the plague.

Fall back for me.

Here's me hoping that the ostrich didn't gulp.

We all need time for re-energizing.

I dunno about the avoidance your exeriencing.

The universe loves you,

as do I, and many others.

Peace and Joy.
Onwards and upwards..and maybe sideways too.

Think what can I do.

Love you, Jet. Your Fool's Gold Stack sounds so good to me it makes me glad I'm not a turtle...I'm gonna ask for that next time I go to the diner with the guys from work, where we usually order breakfast for lunch. We go every other week or so. I wonder if I could add a few pieces of real good melted chocolate between the pancakes?...would almost give it a "turtley" taste.

Are we now allowed to post kid pics?...I wonder if this is legit? This is a cute little guy

Did somebody ask for turtles?

See how we can be?
Our wonderful world's better
than alternates are.

So long as you're welcome here....

That's a great cover, Nick. Brings something different to the table.

Good morning.
I thank god again,
& love you.

It's one o'clock, and time for lunch.

I know what I like-
out of my wardrobe, mostly.
The breezes please me.
