The second paragraph to the first subheading, Perfect for Halloween, advises us that "We also wanted to show that witches aren't all bad as they are so often depicted in books."

The aforementioned intention appeals to me as one to whom Glinda the Good Witch acted as favoritest character in the Oz books.

So what can be more better for Halloween than a treating, not a tricking, witch?!

The captions account for a favorite part of this wizzley.

In particular, the captions You don't have to wear your own clothes to look better under the sixth subheading The Clothes Make the Man and If you can't beat him, eat him under the ninth subheading Strength Can Be Defeated by Wit appeal to me.

So the two morals --"It's great to have a property, but it's even better to know how to act.
Youth and good clothes may be enough to win a heart of a princess" -- to the Puss in Boots illustrations and images in the last, fifth link above to Perrault fairy tales on weebly caused me quite a chuckle.

"The end justifies the means" is a saying that some Unitedstatesians like even as other Unitedstatesians mistrust the extent of its possible applications.

Might that saying be expanded for Puss in Boots to The end (of not turning into fur clothing or gloves) justifies the means?

Perhaps my favorite photo here is the stumpery.

It's so environmentally friendly to include tree stumps even as the latter kindle environmental health through their roots nourishing the underground soil food web and providing above-ground life with their energizing, sugary exudates.

Might the garden mention the tree stumps' species names?.

Thank you!

English Wikipedia associates the place name Tregaron with "town of St. Caron." Catholic Online associates St. Caron with that place's titular saint.

But the above source communicates only the feast day March 5, without any other information.

Is there any tradition anywhere about anyone, anything connected with St. Caron?

Hungry herbivores eat grass , silage and hay, and in the Orkneys some sheep eat sea weed.

Good point. There is no mention of girl twins. Why? We do not know.

Thank you!

Cows eat as winter feed hay. Might they also eat silage? Might sheep also eat hay?

As before, no agreement can be found.

I don't know much about Australian soils.

Good luck and God's blessings to you in the blood drive.

Thank you!

It's interesting that the Old Testament invokes twins in Esau and Jacob even as the New Testament involves as twins perhaps St. James the younger and St. Thomas.

Might there be any instance of girl twins?

A strange fact unearthed by my sister's genealogical researches is that she and I are one per cent Russian. I PUT THIS DOWN TO THE FACT THAT MY FATHER'S Irish ancestors come from Limerick, which was a big Norse settlement in Ireland, and someone Russian came with the Norse, maybe a slave girl. So Norse blood is spread around the British Isles.

Thank you!

It also intrigues me as to whether or not present-day Jewish people identify a particular site as their Messiah's.

Might it be east of the Jordan or their first arrival place in Canaan or Israel?

No, but blue and green eyes were rare among Middle Eastern folk. But no one saw fit to make records of such matters. Mary's are depicted as blue, in the west, but Indian Christians depict her as Indian with Brown skin and dark eyes. Most people in the human race are brown so I think that Mary was probably light brown. Jesus also.

No specific details are known about the end. My attitude is that I do not know when the end will come, but as I am 73 if it does not come in the next few years I will not be here. So why be too bothered about it.
