Myth

There is no way in hell that "The Water Horse" is a cute movie

I am sorry, there is no way in hell that a slimy reptilian like monster is in any way, shape or form, cute and cuddly like dog or a horse.

I can smell the slime on the Loch Ness monster in that poster from here. I can even feel the scaly skin on the creature and all I want to say is, "Eww."

Yet what I don't understand is how any child may want to have a monster lurking in their backyard pond. I still have the imagination of a kid and some think I am quite immature. I can't imagine a time in my life when I wanted to have the Loch Ness monster as a pet.

I mean, seriously.

Words to live by

"When a religion is good, I conceive it will support itself; and when it does not support itself, and God does not take care to support it so that its professors are obliged to call for help of the civil power, 'tis a sign, I apprehend, of its being a bad one."


— -- Benjamin Franklin, letter to Richard Price, October 9, 1780, quoted from Adrienne Koch, ed., The American Enlightenment: The Shaping of the American Experiment and a Free Society, New York: George Braziller, 1965, p. 93.
