What's a green egg? The result of crossbreeding genes from blue eggshells with genes from brown eggshells. These festive-colored eggs are green on the outside and blue on the inside. Only a few chicken breeds can produce this colored eggshell, which makes them a rarer find.
Horses don't lay down all that much, being prey animals. Of course, once in a while, I've run into a horse whose attitude made me wonder about that whole prey animal reputation.
People underestimate how powerful and dangerous prey animals are. Like, there's a reason wolves and lions and bears need to be so strong and fierce. A big herbivore might choose to run when it's attacked but even if you can catch it it's not going to make it easy for you and if you've bitten off more than you can chew you might just get your head kicked in.
Hmm. Interesting, but I won't be needing a place in line. Must be kin to those things that pulled the carriages in the Harry Potter novels.
A Samuel Adams draft beer at Laguardia Airport in New York costs $27.85. @Homer Potvin, eat your heart out.
Wow... A bloody mary at O'Hare is $15, but the bartender really knows how to make them. Best I've ever had, I've started budgeting for two every time I fly out.
Hopefully, I will never have to pass through O'Hare or Laguardia. American airports fill me with dread.
Yeah, I can't compete with airports or New York. Those aren't airports... those are small cities. More like space stations, since once you enter you can only leave via a flying vehicle.
This is why I always take stops in Atlanta instead. Big, open, comfortable, and the prices aren't terrible by airport standards.
TF Green in Providence is about as small as "major" airports get. No international flights, nothing inbound unless you're coming to RI, and almost everything outbound connecting through Philly, Charlotte, and a couple of other hubs. I've had return flights home with less than 10 other passengers many times. Kind of funny... I picture the flight schedule Gods being like, Providence, where's that? Send em to Philly.
I think that's one of the few major airports in the US I havent been to. Guess I need to make a pit stop there just to say I did. My favorite has always been the Portland one. Great scenery with good food at reasonable airport prices. And kind of quiet. It's homey as far as airports go. I will note, however, that I absolutely hate airports where the bar is a bunch of screens. Good conversation with randoms and the tender is forever preferable.
Portland, Maine? Yeah, I'd imagine that would be quaint. Never been to it, but the city is cool. I used to live about an hour away in NH, and that was the only town even approximating a city in the area. It makes Providence look like Manhattan, but the food is excellent.
Nah, Portland Oregon. I would like to go to Maine though. Was looking at buying a vacation summer home there on the coast.
Airports are not my favorite places. Seems like I always make some kind of mistake and someone yells at me. Once I was on my way through line and the TSA person fussed at me because I had some kind of pre-boarding clearance and was taking up room in the regular line. I apologized, explained I was VERY confused and more than a little frightened because there were more people in the airport than lived in my entire county. All of a sudden, she smiled like a human being, called to another agent, and asked the gentleman to escort me to my departure point so I wouldn't be nervous or get lost.
Honey bee queens can become brutal dictators who will command their hive to attack (not defend). (I had a bee keeper come to my library and he talked about how he had to kill a bee queen because she turned her hive into violent attack bees, and once he killed her and replaced her, the new queen was gentler and didnt send her bees out to terrorize people)
