That’s what you get for utilizing artistic license. Playing fast and loose with the facts. Making things up out of thinnish air…
Yesterday (or so) I suggested that an albino rattlesnake might be able to tiptoe into the garage, under the camouflage of snow cover.
Well, you woulda thunk that the albino rattlesnake was the key clue in my twaddling of the facts there, but in fact, it was “the camouflage of snow cover”. We had NO snow on the ground – the brown carpet of hibernating grass outside our home would have made an albino rattlesnake stand out like an icicle with fangs. Like a scaly white sceptre of all-too-obvious snakery…
So, Mother Nature (being the card she is) decided to provide us with some fresh snow overnight - for our drive into work today (MTDG, not me – I would LIVE in a housecoat and slippers if she didn’t need chauffeuring).
The moral of the story kiddies – be careful what you wish for, or write about – because ole Mother Nature can be quite the clown…
Chow for now!!
