If I have to eat to the death, I'm going-pan fried steak for dinner, tiramisu for dessert, and a very quick acting poisonous plant for second dessert.

I worry some that therapy has gotten into an industry where more people are interested in making profit than providing quality of care which has made a market where therapy can serve as a kind of yes man market as well. I definitely don't mean to belittle the benefit of therapy, but I know plenty of people who have shopped around therapists until they got one who said what they had already decided they wanted to hear as opposed to looking for a partner to work through specific issues with.

There's a different printing on the other side too.

I often think of this sign I saw at a small children's playground with braille on it hung 6 feet in the air with no way to reach it. Braille printed on a sign posted too high to reach.

If swimming wasn't the first event, I'd like my odds. I don't like the idea of swimming at the same time as the shark, even if eating your opponent is grounds for disqualification.

I think you're right that they regurgitate food for their young like most birds. A unique puke related vulture fact is that they projectile vomit at predators as a deterrent and means of dropping weight to flee after they've been gorging on a carcass.

Snagging pigeons off of ledges would point me toward Peregrine falcon, but it's far from definitive.

Coopers and red tails are pretty distinctly different. Size is the first marker as red tails are significantly larger than coopers hawks. Also, coopers have very distinctive barred breasts and banded tails. You can also differentiate them through their wing profile; red tails are buteos and have a broad wing profile that is largely straight while coopers are accipitors and their wings are much more angular so that they can more deftly maneuver through wooded areas.

Good idea, but don't get to Windows ME levels.

I bought a 25 foot leash when training my dog. I'll never catch him if he doesn't want me to, but I can get within 25 feet of him.

That's all fine and dandy until they misbehave and you can't follow through by sending them to school on the weekend.
