Mountains

 

My calendar at work this year has pictures of Japanese mountains: one for each month. I recognize Mt. Fuji, the Japanese Alps, Mt. Tanigawa  , and the mountain surrounded marshlands of Oze .
(the last 2 are about 30 minutes away from where I live)

The other 8 mountains look scenic and impressive, but I have no idea where they are.

I’m kind of disappointed.

I was hoping Mt. Splash, Mt. Big Thunder, and Mt. Space were going to be on it.

 

 

note: I’ve Googled the mountains of West Virginia and there is no Mt. Mama! … John Denver is full of crap! … I kind of liked him in Gilligan’s Island though.

double note: if it wasn’t for Mt. Kilimanjaro, I’d think Africa was flat.

triple note: if it wasn’t for Heidi and “The Sound of Music“, I wouldn’t know anything about Switzerland at all … except for that Nazi gold, cheese, chocolate, cuckoo clocks, neutrality, army knives, and that Disneyland ride they invented.

quadruple note: the photo has nothing to do with mountains. I just thought those that saw the little red car before would like to be updated on what the owner has been acquiring.

Today #128

Today I said the word “dink” for the first time in about 20 years. It still sounds funny!

I’m A Mountain … Or A Pile Of Something.

 

I am a mountain:

best seen from a distance and …

if you stand on the top of me you can see a long way.

 

note: if there is a “Mt. Me” somewhere I bet they sell a lot of t-shirts.

double note: why isn’t it Mt. Splash, Mt. Big Thunder, Mt. Space, Mt. Witch, Mt. Big Rock Candy, Mt. Dew  …

triple note: I guess all mountains are named after someone … probaby Mr. Mountain. (old joke)

quadruple note:

“What’s the matter Horn?” I asked my friend Horn.

“I’ve never killed a man Jaro” I said to my friend Jaro.

“I never rest” I’ve never said.

quintuple note: is there a “Mt. Everestaurant” in Nepal/Tibet? … cause there should be!
