    Steve, it's not polite to use your paws when eating your food. I thought @Valkyrie would have taught you that by now.

    Actually, it was Germanicus' men (troops) that gave him the nickname Caligula.

    The video clip that @Myr used looks as if it could have come out of LOTR or a Harry Potter movie.

    Maybe if was derived from Caligula. He often left people feeling that they were in a dark place when he was Emperor.

    You never knew what to expect when Freddy Mercury was on stage. That was wild.

    Is that why your breath has smelled fishy lately? All because of the Otter News.

    Cabotage in aviation is the right of a country to regulate and protect its domestic industry from foreign competition, even if the foreign country has been granted the right to operate within its borders. The foreign country must operate its flights in accordance with the rules and regulations of the home country.

    I'm going for instant water. It's a powder that you just have to add water to and stir.

    Guilds might have begun in an effort to ensure that the common citizenry played a banausic role in society.

    Thank you for the feedback and I'm glad you enjoyed the prank. I'm also pleased that you're looking forward to reading more about the boys and their eventualy quest for treasure.

    They sound more like rats, than moles or voles, so maybe some of those 'other' small creatures were rats.

    Did the government hire those animals as spies or did they volunteer?

    To descend, a bathyscaphe floods air tanks with sea water. The tanks of water on a submarine cannot be displaced with compressed air to make the submarine rise, though. That's because water pressure at the depths at which the submarine operates are too great.

    The executive order of 1933 was repealed by President Gerald R. Ford signed a law on December 31, 1974 reversing that order. Today, there is no limit on the amount of gold, be it jewelry, coins, gold bars, or gold certificates an individual can own now. However, the 1979 Archeological Resources Protection Act (ARPA) does state that any relics more than 100 years old and on public or Federal land does belong to the government. Unless spotted when removing it, who's to say it was found on public or Federal land. Just purchase a piece of land close by, that isn't public or Federal land, do some digging, and claim it was found there instead.

    I'll bet you didn't know there was such a thing as a Bailiwich Retriever. It's a purebred Labrador Retriever that's bred with top quality Labrador Hunt Test and Field Trial bloodlines.

    They haven't practiced it, but it's not out of the question, since horses are mammals.

    So if we lived on Mercury we'd get to celebrate a birthday twice a day.

    It's sort of like how the readers pounce on a new chapter when it's posted. They find it difficult to disguise their accismus for very long.

    They might not have found treasure, but they still had an adventure, and there's always next summer to look forward to.

    But there isn't a lot of hunting done in June, since deer season is in the fall.
