I said I would talk more today about where Arlo and Janis live, geographically. I would like to, but there really isn’t a lot more to say. We’ve had a lot of fun surmising, but it doesn’t matter where they live. We all come from somewhere, and I don’t see that as an impediment to understanding our fellows. Being born is something that happens to all of us, and, while details vary, subsequent events in our lives unite us as a species more than they divide. That is what I try to emphasize in Arlo & Janis.

Rabbits are lots smarter

Lutefisk suppers are hard to find around here.
Did you see the Holiday show on Lakeland PT Thursday night?
All kinds of Norwegian cooking.
As my cousin said while eating dinner, “I wish we hadn’t eaten Fluffy.”
Like chicken? Not quite the same, but good. We ate lots of rabbit for the decades or so that we raised them. Rabbits may be smarter, and wild ones may be smarter than domestic*, but they’re a long way from as smart as lots of other mammals.
*Domestic are derived from Old World Oryctolagus cuniculus, the only colonial rabbits, to my knowledge. N.A. rabbits are mostly spp. of the genus Sylvilagus, which includes 2 strictly Southern spp., swamp rabbits and marsh rabbits. Cannot look them up w/o losing this text.
Peace,
