I'm not especial fond of very large insects, but I'm very glad for the survival of the Lord Howe stick insect, all the same.

I actually like insects; either I find them aesthetically interesting or they don't bother me. But I understand why other people don't agree.

I didn't write it, but I will enthusiastically endorse it!

We've not had any more actual snow here, only little drifting flakes.

It's still snowing here. And I am still shoveling.
