In the Hall of the Mountain King Metal Version Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Hereโ€™s an actual metal version of Griegโ€™s In the Hall of the Mountain King, which I think the original is pretty metal anyway.

When I worked at a wildlife rehab clinic, I successfully caught foxes using both of those methods. I realize foxes are not cats, and they were already injured (thatโ€™s why I was catching them), but I didnโ€™t cause them any additional harm.

I havenโ€™t listened to the audiobook version, but Tulipomania by Mike Dash is one of my favorite books ever. History, botany, economics, people acting crazy.

You can watch the memorial I made for my horse, if you want. I donโ€™t know if you will think itโ€™s sad, but it makes me cry every time.

had far too many rules. You couldn't hear the crickets, you couldn't see half the stars, and the trees were being chopped down to make way for more houses and shops. "Why," Tanuki grumbled, "would they fell trees but leave men standing? Trees are a damn sight more useful than people, and everything in the world knows that except people."

breathe it up, stink it up, and generally misuse it. Trees hold the soil in place, men are constantly displacing it. Trees provide shelter and protection to countless species, men threaten the existence of those species. When in sufficient number, trees regulate atmospheric temperatures, men endanger the planet by knocking those regulations askew. You can't rest in the shade of a human, not even a roly-poly one; and isn't it refreshing that trees can undergo periodic change without having a nervous breakdown over it? And which has more dignityโ€”the calmer spiritual presence a tree or a typical Homo sapiens? Best of all, perhaps, what maple or cypress ever tried to sell you something you didn't want?

I always rather liked Triceratops, but theyโ€™re not on this list. So I guess Iโ€™ll go with their Ceratopsian cousin, Styracosaurus. Or maybe Stegosaurus.

I live in Oregon and am sort of a botanist. I can help you with the mint in exchange for potato.

Iโ€™ve slept outside in my hammock before. Mostly because it was a ridiculous heat wave and my house is old enough to not have ac. The only one who thought it was weird was my cat, who I woke up to staring at me from the little table I set my glasses on. But I live in a college town with no HOA.
