Un-culled old growth from Minnesota’s Labrador Retriever Farms is already showing new sprouts. By late spring/early summer, these pups should be fully grown and ready for training, just in time for duck season.

While we wait and watch the dogwoods grow, grab a coldie and/or a hottie and settle back for The Overnight Open Thread.

What’s amazing about BlogMock Radio is how it sounds so current when it was all pre-recorded on a Wollensak t-1500 dolby 2-track. Even the callers sound fresh, as if they were live and on-the-air, just as they were back in the day, long before The Overnight Open Thread.

A little of this, a little of that

Elvis the crocodile attacks a lawnmower at the Australian Reptile Park in Gosford, north of Sydney, in this still image taken from video December 28, 2011. Two workers at a reptile park near Sydney ran for their lives on Wednesday when a 500 kg crocodile named Elvis suddenly lunged at them, making off with their lawnmower.

That’s 1,100 lbs. of lurking, lunging lizard, lunching. According to Wiki, the top speed for an Australian freshwater croc is about 11mph, easily outrun, unless you happen to mowing grass next to its territory, so don’t do it.
