I love my devil bunny.
Several years ago I spotted him at the market on Portobello Road - it was love at first sight. But everyone else thought he was nasty & horrible and the big meanies finally persuaded me not to get him. I didn't forget, however, and reminded the others on a regular basis just how rotten they were to have denied me my devil bunny.
Exactly one year later, we were back at Portobello Road: same crowd, same hangovers etc etc. And there he was! My devil bunny had waited for me! It was obviously meant to be - so I scooped him up & brought him home & he's been giving Scott the eye ever since.
I love my devil bunny.
[German, mid-late 19th century, traditional Black Forest hunting lodge coathook. The feet are ibex horns. His outfit is what was worn/carried on hunting expeditions at the time.]
Devils Tower was the first declared United States National Monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The name Devil's Tower originated in 1875 during an expedition led by Col. Richard Irving Dodge when his interpreter misinterpreted the name to mean Bad God's Tower. This was later shortened to the Devil's Tower. It rises dramatically 1,267 feet (386 m) above the surrounding terrain and the summit is 5,112 feet (1,558 m) above sea level.
From this years road trip (2011).

"Hickory Horned Devil
Citheronia regalis (Fabricius)
This caterpillar is the larva of the Royal Walnut Moth, also known as the Regal Moth. The larva is not one for a timid person to suddenly discover. It has a scary, frightful appearance resembling a small dragon with up to five pairs of long, curving hornlike structures over the back of its thorax with the rest of the body covered with shorter spikes. The body color ranges from deep blue-green to tan with orange spikes tipped with black. Shorter spikes are black. Though very ferocious appearing, it is quite harmless to handle. They are enormous in size, being five to six inches long and nearly 3/4-inch in diameter. They feed for a period of 37 to 42 days on the leaves of hickory, walnut, butternut, pecan, ash, lilac, persimmon, sycamore, sumac and sweet gum. Larvae mature in late summer, wandering around searching for a place to burrow underground to pupate. Overwintering occurs in the pupal stage.
The moth has a wingspan of five to six inches and is seen in midsummer. It has a long body covered with orange yellow hair. The forewings are gray with orange veins and yellow spots. The hindwings are primarily orange with scattered yellow patches. "

Devil Wears Prada //
Instead of your usual influence of sex, drugs, and rock’n’ roll, Devil Wears Prada tells fans“I want you all to know that Jesus Christ loves each and every one of you. Let’s have a good time dudes!” The cirle pit A Day To Remember had asked for really occurred when Devil Wears Prada took fans by the balls while performing songs off there album “ Plagues”. Boys were bloodied and bruised and girl’s t-shirts hung from the ceiling leaving them topless. By the end of the night, not even the set list made it through in one piece.
At some places the bed of the dry lake is a sandy salty flat. But at other places the repeated (rare) arrival of a little rain followed by immediate evaporation results in a surface that looks like it was once a muddy field churned up by giant horse. The dried clods are covered in salt crystals which will dissolve in the next rain and re-crystallize
