Dating and elephants...


Ok, so I'll start with something basic: how about a dating comment?
I just got back from a first date. How was it? Well, she laughed at all the right places, so I guess that's a start.
First dates, what a doozy.
What's appropriate? What's not?
Do I go this way or that?
At least we went somewhere quite, so there wasn't the crowed to deal with on top of things. I'm better at talking that at shouting.
We had a real conversation, instead of one of those endless monologues I find myself sometimes engaged in with someone who could not put a sentence together.
Basically, I'll say it went well, and we can look forward to proceeding.

And what do elephants have to do with? Not much....
Except for Tamar the elephant who gave birth to a baby elephant a couple of weeks ago at Jerusalem's Zoological Garden. The cool thing is, they have a web-cam and a live feed from the zoo. Best viewed after 15:00 - 16:00 GMT where the web-cam goes back to showing the inside, where the baby elephant is. Hours and hours of fun (check it out). These births of Asian elephants in captivity is pretty rare, so it's quite the occasion.

Tamar never got a chance to date. They artificially inseminated her from sperm provided by a bull from London. I guess that's another way to solve this problem...

I guess letters and words start to fade from the blog after a while. I'm SURE I finished that sentence.
Then again, I possibly didn't.
Now, it is completed!
