'Tulling' it LIKE it is...

This Jethro Tull  (February 21, 1674 - 1741) was most certainly NOT thick as a brick, given that he was highly instrumental in bringing about the British Agricultural Revolution. A true 'pioneer of sorts' [who never wore an aqualung, I might add], he perfected a more economically efficient horse-drawn seed drill in 1701 whereby seeds were sowed in neat little rows. Later, he also developed a horse-drawn hoe. Tull's farming talents were quickly implemented by the landed gentry, thus paving the way for the genesis of modern agriculture. This amazing revolution had great potential to guarantee the future success of agriculture as a whole.

But did he hum any catchy tunes

or ever whistle while he worked?

Play the flute perhaps?

Imagine a virtual passion play down on the farm!

               ALL IN ALL, THOUGH, THE ORIGINAL WAS A GOOD TEACHER!

VITRIOLIC BASENESS

...ends in its own

sordid soliloquy

Sorry, Charlie 

"Speech or publications that disparage or ridicule a person (or class of persons) based on an incontrovertible characteristic (e.g., race, origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age), or an occupation... or family/marital status... or religion (or lack thereof) must be firmly and fairly discouraged. Excluding blatant 'hate communication' in a very broad sense [from the otherwise positive attributes of free speech] would, more than likely, both cultivate and promote a far more inclusive, tolerant, and safer society".

WHEN OLDER DADS WANT TO BE soooooooo "COOL"

What a total creepy perv' !

California lawyer dad arrested for allowing 

‘Playboy’ booze bash for teens...

San Diego County attorney Jeff Lake was busted for allegedly hosting a ‘Playboy Mansion’ themed party with alcohol for 150 to 200 teens. The occasion was his daughter's 18th birthday.

Jeff Lake, a San Diego County attorney who specializes in medical marijuana cases, was arrested at his home where 150 to 200 teens were partying away until sheriff's deputies arrived. Numerous neighbors had complained about the loud booze fest where underage girls were cavorting in lingerie and bunny ears. Two teenage boys were found unconscious at the home; authorities ordered everyone out and took Lake into custody.

Let's hope he stays

 out of politics !!

POST HOLIDAYS: WHEN 'DICKINSON TRUMPS DICKENS'

One need not be a chamber to be haunted,

One need not be a house;

The brain has corridors surpassing

Material place.

Far safer, of a midnight meeting

External ghost,

Than an interior confronting

That whiter host.

Far safer through an Abbey gallop,

The stones a-chase,

Than, moonless, one’s own self encounter

In lonesome place.

Ourself, behind ourself concealed,

Should startle most;

Assassin, hid in our apartment,

Be horror’s least.

The prudent carries a revolver,

He bolts the door,

O’erlooking a superior spectre

More near.

Emily Dickinson c. (1830-1886)
