Now lets see how he does in the high hurdles.

You will need a huge turntable to put that on.

And faster than a Cricket game.

Slow down, you move too fast

You got to make the morning last

Just kicking down the cobblestones

Looking for fun and feeling groovy

Ba da-da da-da da-da, feeling groovy

Hello moon light, what’cha knowing

I’ve come to watch the flowers snoren’

Ain’t you got no rhymes for me?

Doo-ait-n-doo-doo, feeling groovy

Ba da-da da-da da-da, feeling groovy

I got no deeds to do, no promises to keep

I’m dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep

Let the morning time drop all its petals on me

Life, I love you, all is groovy

SUCCESS!!!!!!

About time to head south. Gonna need a bit more speed than that to avoid winter.

Camels may be the ships of the desert, but turtles are just slow

“Shaved a tenth of a second off your record!”

Tut tut. Let us be honest, they do go a little faster than that.

I have two resident tortoises (torti?) on my lot (75% wooded lot) I occasionally have to get out of the car and move them to safety. They were the first wildlife we identified when we start building 25 years ago.

Give him a gold medal!

As I recover from my stroke in June, I’m almost ready to challenge John the tortoise to a race. (providing I get a 45 meter headstart on the 50 meter dash)

Hey, he beat Achilles’ time! (Of course, he had a head start.)

He cheated by urinating on his snail competitors.

At least he wasn’t snappish about it…..

Wow! 1000 miles an hour! …or a little slower away from the equator.

It’s been so long since I’ve heard/sing that song!

And it took all day and all of the night (Song reference) to do it.

A snail got mugged by a turtle. The police asked the snail what happened. He said, “I don’t know; it all happened so fast!”
