What a wonderful day it has been!  Billy and his friends went to the old dock for some swimming and merriment.  They have been drinking BouncyBunny©* and are in the mood for fun. As can be seen, Carl Cat is more focused on the lack of dignity and purpose around him, hanging out with rabbits is always an exercise in nothing being accomplished except goofing off and being rowdy.  No worries about responsibility today! Besides, cats take themselves far too seriously. * Carbonated carrot juice and Dextroamphetamine++.  BouncyBunny© is a division of JackedRabbit.  All rights reserved. https://youtu.be/rMdbbmB4iDo

Just before he disappeared again, the mysterious rabbit warned the boys of the dangerous choice that lay ahead. 'Now remember', the bunny said, 'The hatch with the latch is the portal for a mortal, but the gate with the grate is the door to abhor!" And then he vanished as suddenly as he had appeared.  Choose wisely, kids, wisely.   The world is counting on you guys.

Now as I was young and easy under the apple boughs About the lilting house and happy as the grass was green, The night above the dingle starry, Time let me hail and climb Golden in the heydays of his eyes, And honoured among wagons I was prince of the apple towns And once below a time I lordly had the trees and leaves Trail with daisies and barley Down the rivers of the windfall light. And as I was green and carefree, famous among the barns About the happy yard and singing as the farm was home, In the sun that is young once only, Time let me play and be Golden in the mercy of his means, And green and golden I was huntsman and herdsman, the calves Sang to my horn, the foxes on the hills barked clear and cold, And the sabbath rang slowly In the pebbles of the holy streams. All the sun long it was running, it was lovely, the hay Fields high as the house, the tunes from the chimneys, it was air And playing, lovely and watery And fire green as grass. And nig...

I bet it's pretty warm in here with all those clothes on, huh? https://youtu.be/3GEYTHPGCsg

Another 4 Color, # 102.  April 1946.  Walt Kelly. # 458, 1953. Oswald has been through some changes but I like the Walter Lantz version the best, although it does not look a thing like the original. https://youtu.be/1Ut00lXlFPw Some original art.  I just like Oswald in this form, and that is all this post is about, nothing more.  Why Oswald went through all these changes is way beyond my research capabilities.

So at dusk I was drinking coffee and sweeping the back porch when I saw this fellow wedged in the doorway and menacing me. This is one well set up crab, and a brave one as well. After a major fight I got him into a bucket by ruthless broom action.  He wasn't having any of it and kept threatening me with those Ray Harryhausen claws. Poor little guy!  For all he knew I was going to eat him.  This is a Stone Crab and by law you can only eat a single claw, and to do that you have to tear it off and dump the living crab back in the ocean.  I think that's awful, and it would take a great many crabs to make such heartlessness worth going to Hell for.  I took him to the water and set him down on the rocks, as I left he was waving his pincers at me for all he was worth, how dare I treat him in such a cavalier manner? "A legal stone crab is defined as one with at least a 2½-inch claw, measured from the tip of the claw to the first joint behind...
