    They can do short bursts of 25 mph. Should you ever be in the position of having a gator chase you…you should frequently change the direction you are running. While gators are fast, they can’t change direction easily. Somewhere there is a video of a huge gator on shore being harassed and...

    Alligators can close their jaws with huge force, something like 2000 pounds per square inch. But they are very weak opening their jaws. That's why an alligator wrestler or duct tape can hold the jaws closed. I love living in Florida. ;) No, really. :) Forest Cat, there is a gator in the...

    Whitewater Woman's Equipment Maintenance and Repair

    Forest Cat, I was wondering if anyone would want a follow up. You answered my question. Thank you for asking. I could not get the drain disconnected from the sink. I "solved" the problem initially by just using the working side of the sink. But, another apparent leak showed up there. So I...

    Photos from a road trip

    Great photos. Reminiscent of some of the Life Magazine photo spreads. Where in Alberta are the hills you pictured?

    Are you treated differently

    The main way I was treated differently was in college. As a woman in a field at the time dominated by men, I was denied access to some learning opportunities because I was a woman and - literally - will just get pregnant and drop out and never use it. I didn't realize I was ASD1 until the past...

    Digestive issues

    There is an Indian after-dinner mix that are served after dinner, the way we, in the US , would get a mint. A large percentage of this mix is fenugreek. It tastes delicious. I have not found it for sale. Only had it in Indian restaurants.

    How does one lift oneself out of textbook depression?

    When I am feeling bad/down/depressed etc., I find it is helpful to help someone else. When I was working, this was part of my everyday worklife. Now that I am retired, it is a bit more difficult, but I have found opportunities. A very interesting teacher in Master Class said that if your goals...

    Winter is coming.

    And rutabagas. Gotta have rutabagas for a good beef stew. I agree with the parsnips and turnips. Also carrots and onions. It's actually hard to find rutabagas in Florida, but occasionally they show up. We have not had cold enough weather consistently in several years, so no opportunity to cook...

    Today I learned...

    With an amazon.com business account, you get a lot better service. This also works at Home Depot. So if you have any kind of a business, and find amazon's customer service atrocious, you might try setting up a business account.

    Ways Humans Can Help Other Animals

    Yay! I have hair clips that are made of similar stuff. Looks and acts like plastic, but is totally biodegradable stuff. Easy enough to get. They are on Amazon.com

    Google answering wrong question

    Good job on BS control. A 5.4 is excellent! Back to the original post: I often get irritated at google providing the "wrong" answer. Google does not do when when asking question about something specific. Example: Does plant X need nutrient Z to grow well? Google will respond with lots of sites...
