More Cougars? No Beatles?

There have been multiple reports of cougars in the north suburbs since a cougar was killed Monday morning in Chicago. So far, searches have yielded nothing. I remain skeptical that there are two big cats in the area but one could never truely prove that there isn't.
proving non-existence: when an arguer cannot provide the evidence for his claims, he may challenge his opponent to prove it doesn't exist (e.g., prove God doesn't exist; prove UFO's haven't visited earth, etc.). Although one may prove non-existence in special limitations, such as showing that a box does not contain certain items, one cannot prove universal or absolute non-existence, or non-existence out of ignorance. One cannot prove something that does not exist. The proof of existence must come from those who make the claims.


Which brings us to beatles. No, not these guys.

These guys


Officials say that the Asian Long Horn beatle has been eradicated from Illinois. State and local officials removed 1000s of trees and the last sighting was in 2002.

You know what this means? Mass reinfestation is imminent.

BLEH! One of those words I can never remember how to spell.

I changed it three damn times. When I went in search of a picture of the band google suggested the "a" spelling. When I searched for the long horn it came up fine.

thanks for the correction, though.

It still worked, and it wouls have been even better as an audio blog - where spelling doesn't matter at all.

Been enjoying the blog!
