I dressed as Ned Ryerson for Halloween one year and only my Brother had a clue who I was.

Yes, and for what it’s worth, Punxsutawney Phil says we’re having six more weeks of winter. I tried asking the groundhog in my yard this morning about the political weather and he popped a cyanide capsule.

this fellow joined us for breakfast at the bungalow:

street chickens really are on all the islands. most people know the KW chickens because they are popularized and celebrated (also protected as… i dunno, cultural treasures or some rot).

i still don’t like them - they are a general nuisance - but i do admit they are lovely beasties.
