Wikipedia is, if not the source of all knowledge, always good for amusement. Today’s amusement: Unusually-shaped vegetables and Supernumerary body parts, such as extra fingers (or toes), webbing between digits, extra heads, and the like. The page of the Dual … Continue reading
At the midnight hour …
With her head tucked underneath her arm She walks the bloody tower With her head tucked underneath her arm at the midnight hour It’s a nigh of Kingston Trio music tonight.
