Say, Au Revoir ~ !" ~ Mum of The Morning Wood "Lawrence of virtuous father virtuous son, Now that the fields are dank, and ways are mire, Where shall we sometimes meet, and by the fire Help waste a sullen day; what may be won >From the hard season gaining: time will run On smoother till Favonius reinspire The frozen earth; and clothe in fresh attire The lily and rose, that neither sowed nor spun. What neat repast shall feast us, light and choice, Of Attic taste, with wine, whence we may rise To hear the lute well touched, or artful voice Warble immortal notes and tuskan air? He who of those delights can judge, and spare To interpose them oft, is not unwise." ~ John Milton, Sonnet 17 "A Drinking Song ~ Wine comes in at the mouth And love comes in at the eye; That's all we shall know for truth Before we grow old and die.

Its colour plates were made by Christiaan Sepp, draughtsman, engraver and cartographer in Amsterdam, who also engaged in biological studies. The text was written by Cornelis Nozeman, a minister of the Remonstrant church, with an interest in natural science and biology. The book was published by Sepp's son, Jan Christiaan, a bookseller by profession, but, like his father, well at home in the art of engraving and biology.

You'd play a silver clarinet, I'd wind up our String Quartet." ~ Merrylegs "The merry songs of Peace to all our neighbors ~ A very leafy fence, our vine embroiders, Verdant blush, ripe our grapes, plucked as favors. Vintage yields, bare feet dancing, fruits of labor." ~ Merlot "The Diatonic Dittymunch The Diatonic Dittymunch plucked music from the air, He swallowed scores of symphonies and still had space to spare. Sonatas and cantatas slithered sweetly down his throat; He made ballads into salads and consumed them note by note. He ate marches and mazurkas, he ate rhapsodies and reels, Minuets and tarantellas were the staples of his meals. But the Diatonic Dittymunch outdid himself one day: He ate a three-act opera -- And LOUDLY passed away." ~ Jack Prelutsky "The broad-backed hippopotamus Rests on his belly in the mud; Although he seems so firm to us He is merely flesh and blood." ~ T.S. Eliot "Flora am the handmaid of the earth, I broider fair her glorious gown, And deck her on her days of mirth With many a garland of renown. And while Earth's little ones are fain And play about the Mother's hem, I scatter every gift I gain >From sun and wind to gladden them." ~ William Morris "love is a place & through this place of love move (with brightness of peace) all places yes is a world & in this world of yes live (skillfully curled) all worlds" ~ e e cummings "Bring me wine, but wine which never grew In the belly of the grape, Or grew on vine whose tap-roots, reaching through Under the Andes to the Cape, Suffer no savor of the earth to scape. Let its grapes the morn salute >From a nocturnal root, Which feels the acrid juice Of Styx and Erebus; And turns the woe of Night, By its own craft, to a more rich delight." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson "O, will you eat no grapes, my royal fox? Yes, but you will my noble grapes, an if My royal fox could reach them: I have seen a medicine That's able to breathe life into a stone, Quicken a rock, and make you dance canary With spritely fire and motion; whose simple touch, Is powerful to araise King Pepin, nay, To give great Charlemain a pen in's hand, And write to her a love-line." ~ Lafeu, "All Swell That End's Well" Come on guys, their numbers are dropping ...

"The Song of Shadows Sweep thy faint Strings, Musician, With thy long lean hand; Downward the starry tapers burn, Sinks soft the waning sand; The old hound whimpers couched in sleep, The embers smoulder low; Across the walls the shadows Come, and go.

"Love is merely a madness, and, I tell you, deserves as well a dark house and a whip as madmen do: and the reason why they are not so punished and cured is, that the lunacy is so ordinary that the whippers are in love too.

Under the overturned lute with its One string I am going my way Which has a strange sound. This way the dust, that way the dust. I listen to both sides But I keep right on. I remember the leaves sitting in judgment And then winter. I remember the rain with its bundle of roads. The rain taking all its roads. Nowhere. Young as I am, old as I am, I forget tomorrow, the blind man. I forget the life among the buried windows. The eyes in the curtains. The wall Growing through the immortelles.

"On March 17, 2007, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a press release about the Pet Food Recall of Foods Manufactured by Menu Foods, Inc. We are reproducing it here as a public service. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has been informed that Menu Foods, Inc., a private-label pet food manufacturer based in Streetsville, Ontario, Canada, is recalling all its "cuts and gravy" style dog and cat food produced at its facility in Emporia, Kansas between December 3, 2006 and March 6, 2007. The products are sold in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The recall was prompted by consumer complaints received by the manufacturer and by tasting trials conducted by the manufacturer. There has been a small number of reported instances of cats and dogs in the United States that developed kidney failure after eating the affected product. Ten deaths, one dog and nine cats, have reported at this time. The firm has undertaken extensive testing of the pet food products in question, but to date has been unable to find the source of the problem. The products are packaged in cans and pouches under numerous brand names and are marketed nationwide by many pet food retailers including Ahold USA Inc., Kroger Company, Safeway, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., PetSmart, Inc., and Pet Valu, Inc. Menu Foods, Inc. has identified the potentially contaminated products on the Internet at {see our first post in this thread: http://www.dogexplorer.com/dog/index.php/topic,210.0.html }. Consumers who have any of these products should immediately stop feeding them to their pets. Dogs or cats who have consumed the suspect feed and show signs of kidney failure (such as loss of appetite, lethargy and vomiting) should consult with their veterinarian. Menu Foods, Inc. is notifying retailers by telephone and mail and is arranging for the return of all recalled products. FDA is conducting an investigation and working with Menu Foods, Inc. to ensure the effectiveness of the recall. Consumers with questions may contact the company at 1-866-895-2708. Consumers who wish to report adverse actions or other problems can go to http://www.fda.gov/opacom/backgrounders/complain.html to contact the FDA complaint coordinator in their state." http://www.dogexplorer.com/dog/index.php?topic=210.msg622 Double-A >DON'T EAT THE POISON DOG FOOD! > >"On March 17, 2007, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a >press release about the Pet Food Recall of Foods Manufactured by Menu [screed flush] What does this have to do with the Flowing Space Nonsense?

The rainbow sometimes, in its beautiful state, Enamel'd the mansion around; And the figures that fancy in clouds can create, Supplied me with gardens and ground. I had grottoes, and fountains, and orange tree groves, I had all that enchantment has told; I had sweet shady walks, for the Gods and their - Loves, I had mountains of coral and gold. But a storm that I felt not, had risen and roll'ds While wrapp'd in a slumber I lay; And when I look'd out in the morning, behold My Castle was carried away. It pass'd over rivers, and valleys, and groves, The world it was all in my view; I thought of my friends, of their fates, of their loves, And often, full often of You. At length it came over a beautiful scene, That nature in silence had made; The place was but small, but 'twas sweetly serene And checkered with sunshine and shade. I gazed and I envied with painful goodwill, And grew tired of my seat in the air; When all of a sudden my Castle stood still, As if some attraction was there. Like a lark from the sky it came fluttering down, And placed me exactly in view, When whom should I meet in this charming retreat, This corner of calmness, but You. Delighted to find you in honor and ease, I felt no more sorrow, nor pain; But the wind coming fair, I ascended the breeze, And went back with my Castle again. ~ Thomas Paine CLICK ~ ! ~ * The Animal Rescue Site ~ Click the purple button To feed an animal in need, every click gives a bowl ... http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com ~ * ~ "Wagging tails alone Where she left them were little sheep; Lost Bopeep doesn't know And has behind her them tails wagging; Home come, and she'll find them." ~ Folly CLICK ~ ! ~ * The Animal Rescue Site ~ Click the purple button To feed an animal in need, every click gives a bowl ... http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com ~ * ~ "The cat will mew and dog will have his day.
