Hi guys! This one looks like the ones we have here in Texas, but Ed is right, very elusive. You're most likely to see them on roadsides (kit by cars). There used to be one living somewhere around Cool River restaurant in Austin. He/she was a juvenile and very tame, the restaurant staff would give him food.
Hello, Ewa! :)
Yep, this one is found in Texas (and elsewhere in the Americas) and also has a breeding population in the CDR.
How are you this afternoon?

Doing ok, thank you Adam. My son has croup at least that's what the doctor thinks. He is fine now just having crazy sounding cough.

Amazing isn't it, how quickly kids can feel better if there is something fun to do. My son used to always try to play sick. I fell for it for awhile. Then I told him, if he's not vomiting, then don't call me. Yes, I'm sure you guessed it, now the phone calls were that he was sick and he threw up. Well, then I told him, if his teacher didn't see him vomit, then don't call me. He finally figured it out, that I had figured him out.

Contrary to popular belief Mussolini didn't make the trains run on time.
He only made one particular train run on time.
In 1922 there was a general strike in Italy, much to the annoyance of the people and especially to the King,
The fascists gathered in Naples and Mussolini gave a great speech on how they would march to Rome and seize power;
Mussolini went to Milan, as he was rather scared,
but the King said if Mussolini came to Rome Immediately,he would offer him the Prime Ministership. Mussolini rang the station master and said "This train has to run on time!!! "
And it did.

didn't have one??
Is the correct answer!!
He never wore one!!
He bought lots of silver stars for about 25 shillings after he was given all kinds of titles by the King of Naples and stuck them all over a sash which he put on when standing on the deck of The Victory with his hands clasped behind his back.
So from 50 feet away, the French shot him.
He never lost an eye, just the sight in one eye.
His lover, Lady Hamilton, was vastly overweight and had a broad Lancashire accent, not quite how portrayed by Vivien Leigh in the film.
