It takes so little to demolish a habitat; all that’s needed is some shortsightedness and indifference and neglect.

On Assignment
We Rhinos are occasionally disruptive, it is true. Nature has given Us plenty of wherewithal for Party Critter-dom, and We need to keep these skills and proclivities in shape.
Not every critter is up to the job, as We are.
Somebody’s got to get ‘er done!

Tennessee Williams, 1911-1983, was a playwright of great distinction, capturing the varied tonalities of failed expectations and complex relationships, in a distinctive voice of his own.
A brilliant birthday boy.
Looking Up!
Back in 1655, Christiaan Huygens discovered Titan, the largest of Saturn’s 53 moons. Surprising that he could find it up there, really.
These questions work best if one has given up on the Flat Earth Theory, which We Rhinos have not done entirely. (see 1-26-2015)
The tulips signify that Mr. Huygens was Dutch, which maybe you knew already.
the Simple Explanation
M. Joseph Liouville, b. 1809, was the pioneer of Transcendental Numbers (a real number, but not a root of an algebraic equation with rational roots.) Oddly enough, Rhinos get this idea pretty well, assuming it means numbers that can’t be counted. In our case, that takes care of all of them, except 1, 2, and 3.
We’re glad M. Liouville cleared that up.
Chlorophylled
Green is not just a color, at least from the Rhino standpoint. Well, maybe it is a color if the definition includes Green’s mesmerizing fragrance, its many moods and nuances, intentions and muffled giggles, its potential for dynamic shifts and rhythms, its heroism and its generosity.
That’s our idea of Green; Rhinos feel privileged to be on the planet with it.
Maestro!!!
Here’s saluting Mr. Stephen Sondheim, whose contributions to American Musicals have been so memorable.
Some guy!
Hush
Rhinos do not chat much. In the Wild, the noteworthy news is apparent to one and all. We can smell it.
In silence We can absorb the rich data that assails Us. It’s a good system.
Shillelagh-izing
All the O’Rhinos wish you the very Most and More… as is alway the case.
Computations, Etc.
Linear thinking is not natural to Rhinos, though We hear that Logic has a lot to recommend it. For some, perhaps Logic is comforting.
What dictates the Rhino mental process is a Natural Mystery, with which We do not choose to tamper.
Reason just gums up the works. Or at least, it’s never done much for ours.
