Champagne for all my real friends, real pain for all my sham friends.

Ol' Tom Waits quote.

I like it.

Kinda like the way I also like to spout out facts.

For instance, do you know that if certain tropical bugs see their reflection in a mirror, they will spray a vile liquid from their hind to strike a villan with a demonic combination of eye-stinging horror and nose pew? Don't fart in South America. Do the math. Trust me.

Do you know that there is rare species of bullfrog in the American South that bellows with a bombastic boom so low that only snakes can hear its call? When the frog emotes, the snakes shed their skin. It's like a lurid lizard strip show in the swamps on some foggy nights.

Do you know that rain makes worms from the earth despondent? They wired 'em up and equated their brains with people of the same mind. Worms won in all factors of despondency - in significant change over baseline. Oh yes they did.

To all whom I adore, feel fine to refer to the above mentioned artiste' - Take It With Me. I smile right back at you.
