Scout’s honor

I seem to have giant fowl legs on the brain this week, but consciously I chose to share this cartoon because it has a good message. That message is: Be prepared and carry a hacksaw, roll of duct tape, remote-control mouse, bagel, spool of wire, 6-volt lantern battery, apple and fire extinguisher in your satchel at all times, just in case you encounter a witch, a hypnocat, Kaschei the Deathless and a three-headed dragon after you’ve been abducted in the middle of your model-car making by a flock of geese. Remember it well.

Congratulations, Anamika Veeramani

The winning word for this year’s Scripps Spelling Bee was “Stromuhr.” A stromuhr is an instrument that measures the amount of blood that flows through a blood vessel during a certain period of time. I guess a stromuhr could be handy if you were trying to find out the dangerousness of a particular vampire bat.
