Surprising developments require Stylish Responses.

Now you know.

Rhinos are naturally a lot of laughs, full of beans and creativity.

We effervesce; that is just the Rhino Norm.

Today We discuss a surprising fact about words: If you add one letter to ANGER, you get DANGER. How about that? We are assured it is true, but how it works is mysterious. Rhinos don’t have that linguistic trick up our sleeves.

To save you the tedium of going insane, other words that involve ANGER are (with the addition of a letter): RANGER, GANGER, HANGER, MANGER, FANGER, XANGER, and QUANGER, plus others perhaps. What you choose to do with this information is whatever you choose to do, or don’t.

Seems messy, but many interesting facts get out of hand like that. At the drop of the hat.

Many old rhymes and songs were originally Rhino Works of Distinction. So popular have they been, over Time, that folks forget whence these ditties came.

Rhinos do not fret over these trifles, but We do not forget what is due to our R Family.

You can see plainly that a Rhino jumped over the moon, right? Cows are not adept at leaping, and would moo so themselves.

Groundhog’s Day! We are bringing it up early since tomorrow at sunrise, Groundhogs here and wherever, will be quizzed on upcoming spring weather. There is some feeble idea that involves seeing a shadow, which will reveal All.

Any Rhino could do a more criditable job of forecasting, but We don’t live where it is often snowy. It is a knack, but one Rhinos all have to some degree. Nobody asks Us what’s in store; don’t forget, Ignorance is often a choice.

As a reminder, Groundhogs never pretended to any scientific insights, with shadows or without. Please don’t blame them if the present tradition is mostly hooey.

Yes, it’s time for your Februaray Pin-Up, straight to you from ‘Your Inner Rhino’!

Face Winter with flamboyance! Why not swagger?

Observe the illustration below, please. Ponder just what words might capture the sense of the image. You could spend a lot of time, trying to pinpoint your reaction, and even then, you might want to rethink your evaluation.

Rhinos like to go with Reaction #1. If We get it wrong, how wrong is it likely to be? Words don’t seem to help here.

Far easier to get into the swing of the picture, and enjoy it. (The yellow flag is not essential, but the artist felt it helped things along; yellow has that effect.)

A grim reality is that once in about two trillion, things don’t go as expected. We adult Rhinos are aware of these moments of disappointment and learn to roll with the punches.

Still, We don’t pretend We like them.

One thing that is coming is Spring, so We’ll just zip it and see what happens! It is called Anticipation.

Enthusiam is a fine property, supplying encouragement almost every time. We Rhinos see enthusiasm as a crucial precept for dealing with our activities and relationships. It certainly trumps Indifference.

‘WooHoo’ doesn’t really mean anything, though most inarticualte cries have that in common. The general understanding reflects a postive response to the day’s developments: energy for energy’s sake.

Rhinos like that idea, for certain.

Rhinos are not a pro-telephone species. The most obvious issue is that We do not have any phones. Perhaps if We did, We would become Rhinophonic. But that is pure supposition. Also unlikely.

Our communication systems are basic, but effective. Not only do We make sense most of the time, but We take advantage of body language when needed- which is all the time. Whoever heard of an encounter with a Rhino where the R attitude was confusing?

Nobody. Right.
