Sartorial Reminder
YIR wants you to recall that from today until Labor Day, white shoes are allowed. Then it’s time to go back to everything else.
Rhinos are spared these wardrobial considerations, not wearing shoes at all. Or anything else, if it comes to that.
Rhinos embrace every advantage We’ve got!
With Tune or Without
Rhinos have no access to Medical Specialists, beyond our own Systems and Practices. One such system is Humming Therapy, whereby the head is cleared and the spirits lifted. We are not limited to humming only in the nasal region, but also the chest and ears. A few deep breaths, a concentrated clearing of the throat, or sometimes a sneeze, and We resonate.
Works like a charm. Ask anybody.
Not as Yesterday…
No matter what We Rhinos might like to suppose, We are not the same as Yesterday. We are only on our route to Tomorrow, with whatever’s in store.
It might make a rational critter jumpy, but We Rhinos have lasted a long time, simply attending to Today. Today works for Us.
Overall, are We improving? We like to think so. No moment is impervious to Criticism, after all.
Replay
We posted this in March of 2017, but stumbled upon it while dusting.
It feels like a reminder We Rhinos could use.
So here We go.
Who knew?
Today in 1660, a Mr. Isaack B. Fubine was granted a patent, naming him the inventor of Macaroni. That was in the Hague, in Holland.
Macaroni was known before that, but nobody seems to have thought to legalize the topic. So, good for Mr. Fubine.
Macaroni-and-cheese is a different question, and the YIR Research Department has gone to lunch. Sorry; these things happen.
Green Green
Rhinos are not immune to Desires, to Temptations, to Envy. No, We stand guilty as charged, at the fence, peering over.
But ultimately, We are forced to acknowledge that We are not sure just what it is We lack. If We do.
It’s worth wondering about.
SOS
Today is May Day, a seasonal festival, but oddly enough, it is also Save the Rhino Day. Thus it is May Day, and also a ‘Mayday’ call for assistance.
Rhinos, through no known fault of our own, face both poaching and loss of habitable turf in the Wild. The folk responsible will need to curtail their efforts, or the jig will be up for Us Rhinos.
If you can help Us, look up a Rhino group, and chip in where you can. Thank you.
May Day, almost…
Tomorrow is the First Day of May, an ancient day of recognition for the wakening fertility of the World.
It is often enhanced by a modest gift of flowers, left secretly for one’s near-and-dears. A sweet discovery.
YIR is reminding you today, so you can get the ingredients ready to go.
Disappearing Act
Destination: Elsewhere. Urgency: Extra Large. When: Now or sooner!
Today it does not matter Why We scoot. Big issue, small issue, We need space between it and Us.
Fortunately, Rhinos can run over 30 miles per hour, for shortish distances. That’s usually quick enough, thank goodness.
