First, a public service announcement: If you're putting anything other than mustard on your mustard sandwiches, they aren't mustard sandwiches. They're sandwiches with mustard on them.

Jiaming is going to get "green swan stuff" on his bright blue scrubs.

The ducks are jumping from the edge of the pool to the ground but not flapping their wings. Jacob compared them to lemmings.

The squirrel cages were labeled Marco's Villa, Venturoli's Fine Italian Dining, The Venetian, Mario's Squirrel Palace.

A chameleon was having surgery done because at first we thought there was something wrong with his testicle but when we look at him, his gall bladder is swollen and his bile duct is so enlarged that we could see it.
Sarah says "look at me. I'm fire. Don't touch me." because normally he has more green.

Ross was talking about something involving a baby born with its amniotic sac or something like that and someone elsewhere called it beautiful. "Beautiful? It's like an egg with blood around it."
Their teacher says that nobody eats the placenta for nutrients because there are better places to get nutrients, animals eat the placenta so predators aren't aware of the babies.

Ross wants to make a movie called Canine Death Squad, or maybe K-9 Death Squad. I mentioned Scientology and its goons and I called them death squads. Maybe can convince them that ISIS burnt a bunch of copies of Dianetics and Battlefield Earth.
"In a world where animal control officers are out of control" and that got Emily's attention. Emily, who may or may not be the Emily I mentioned a few entries ago, thought he was referencing something in particular but I'm sure he's just referencing the fact that every movie trailer ever opens with IN A WORLD to the point where it's become a parody. The woman with the snake pendant wants him to finish it for her birthday in October. She says she's the reptile equivalent of the Crazy Cat Lady except she actually takes care of her animals and they aren't being hoarded or eating each other. I asked about her snakes and Ross is like "let me pull out a list" but she didn't need one because seven of her snakes are ball pythons. Meanwhile, Jacob stole my seat and I ended up having to move across the room to where Lianne was. Lianne was eating something potent enough to be smelt from across the room, but potent in a delicious way.


We still have #10, along with three other hawks. Maybe #10 will be with us when Brock Turner, rapist, leaves jail. One was banging around in his cage, and Emily sneezed so she says she might be allergic to birds. We'll probably put two of them outside, preferably two females of the same size.
Don't try this with a bald eagle and a hawk unless you want bits of hawk scattered about the pen. There, I just told you who would win in a fight between an eagle and a hawk, so you don't have to try it.

The owl with one eye self-released. I don't know how this happened. I don't know why it would happen. Tiffany is bewildered by this event. She was wearing swan earrings instead of owl earrings so Miranda thought she did that because of the escape.


As far as I can tell, yellow-naped Amazons don't show any sexual dimorphism. Greg felt something in its abdomen and thought that he might actually be a she and might be eggbound but that turned out to not be the case. Whatever it was, it wasn't showing up in the x-ray. Good thing he had a gender-neutral name. He talks but when we were looking at him, he made noises like a demented duck.


People in Iceland believe in elves. Also, there are probably more sheep than people. Also, it's less grassy and more mossy and licheny according to Matt. I made up that last word. Archer made up sand duney, so I think I have the right to do that. Doony, however, is a word. At least in Armenian, it is.

Tiffany took a picture of what looks like a sun bear sitting on a beanbag but is actually a really fat bear who had too much maple syrup and too much hunny according to her or a bear with a badger on its lap according to Greg. She has a video of the bear moving around backing up what she said.
They do things different in Canada.
Also, she doesn't know if there was a badger because she was at a zoo in Montreal and so the signs were in French. I said the French word for "badger" was "le badger" but actually it's "blaireau" according to Wikipedia, and according to wiktionary, replaced the Latin-derived taisson, and is either from the Gaulish word for gray (blaros) or the Frankish word for white blaze (blari) or maybe neither of those possibilities.

burning question: Bugs Meany is wiping his ass on our towels!?
