Frankenstein's monster figures heavily in the halloween decorations at my house. And... I recently finished binge-watching the munsters on netflix, so I have the Herman Munster version of the monster in my head at the moment. I may have to go read Shelly again to get that out of my head, but it's ok for a little while.

Thanks for Bertie the Bunyip Gilmner - never seen or heard of that show but apparently the man behind Bertie was an Aussie - so there ya go

It's worth noting that the traditional owners of the land known as Australia believed in the bunyip.

They described it as having flippers, a horse like tail and tusks like a walrus.

A hungry Bunyip is said to eat any animal that comes close to its waterhole but unless disturbed does not usually eat people.

Recent theories posit the origins of the Bunyip may be a racial memory of the Aboriginal people that stems from something like a diprotodon (below) that was becoming extinct as the earliest Aborigines began arriving in Australia, around 50, 000 years ago.



The name it thought to be an Aboriginal word meaning devil or spirit.

Nobody is any better than anyone else, so that lets me in again, and I'll have another 24 in Maryland today.

Years ago I stated in an AA meeting that Washington, D.C. is the drinking capitol of the world.

The Irish Lady sitting next to me said, "I thought it was Dublin".

The topic of the AA meeting was unity.
