Things there ain't

Uploaded by Dick Dangerous

Ain't no wall impenetrable enough,
Ain't no void vacuous enough,
Ain't no slur insensitive enough,
Ain't no nuclide radioactive enough,
Ain't no venom deadly enough,
Ain't no international sanction threatening enough,
Ain't no mutation repellent enough,
Ain't no history obscure enough,
Ain't no grammar difficult enough,
Ain't no cemetery gloomy enough,
Ain't no predator vicious enough,
Ain't no sickness debilitating enough,
Ain't no explosive energetic enough,
Ain't no galaxy remote enough,
Ain't no pitch shrill enough,
Ain't no ghost frightening enough,
Ain't no recession severe enough,
Ain't no packaging hermetic enough,
Ain't no budget tight enough,
Ain't no robot destructive enough,
Ain't no canine aggressive enough,
Ain't no spectacle disgusting enough,
Ain't no famine widespread enough,
Ain't no extinction total enough
To keep me from you...

If only I could do this on demand

Kids like mountaineering, right?

I had a Butter Rum flavored Life Saver today and it made me think about whether a Butter Tea could be popular among fans of Himalayan mountain climbing. Pop one of these onto your tongue and you can experience the Everest Base Camp sensation, especially if you refrain from breathing.

Breakfast craft

Someone should invent a small hot-air balloon that would make your toast and deliver it to your plate in the morning.
