At least you're not this guy:



(Supposedly a yak, but I think it looks more like a wildebeest or something.)

7. you should check it out some time.
The Okanagan valley of the southern interior of BC is like what Arizona would be if it had trees and water. in other words, damn near a paradise, except for the goddamn forest fires which totally fucked up my vacation last year.

9. Dang, sorry to hear that
Yeah, I'm in the OK as we speak...actually that area is the northern tip of the Majave desert. So it's the same desert as Arizona. Great fruit too.

Ever come this way again..let me know.

6. I think it's an ibex
Definitely not a yak nor a wildebeest, maybe an agouti? Definitelt an ungulate, though...

Ophelia's a nice name, do you have flowers growing out of your head? (Ever watch the Addams Family TV show? Ophelia was Morticia's sister)

8. Ophelia was also Hamlet's wuss of a woman.
Edited on Sun May-30-04 02:44 AM by Ophelia
"Ophelia is a beautiful and simple-minded woman, easily molded by the more powerful opinions and desires of others. The thoughts of her father and her brother influenced her the most. The love letters from Hamlet also swayed her opinions and confused her mind. Ophelia wasn’t able to realize herself because of all the pressures exerted on her to be something she’s not. That weakness of mind and will, which permitted her obedience to her father and thus destroyed her hope for Hamlet’s love, finally resulted in her insanity and death.

When her father had challenged the honor of Hamlet’s intentions, Ophelia could only reply "I do not know, my lord, what I should think" (III, iii). Used to relying upon her father’s direction and brought up to be obedient, she can only accept her father’s belief, seconded by that of her brother, that Hamlet’s "holy vows" of love were simply designed for her seduction. She was to obey her father’s orders not to permit Hamlet to see her again. Her father also wanted to prove Hamlet’s madness to the king. He used Ophelia as bait so he and the king could listen to Hamlet’s words. Ophelia willingly obliged to her father’s desires. By not thinking for herself and only doing as her father wished, she ruined her chances of love with Hamlet.
Hamlet put pressure on Ophelia by expecting her to surpass his mother’s shortcomings and be an epitome of womankind....."

12. I knew that. That's why I didn't mention her...
There she goes, la dee dah, a floating down the stream, see ya later Ophelia! Millais certainly painted a beautiful picture of her though.

Naw I tend to go for levity here, that's why I mentioned the Addams Family instead of Hamlet!

See ya around, maybe! Lots of rivers and streams around this neck of the woods!

14. ...and the subject of a poem by Rimbaud
I


Sur l'onde calme et noire où dorment les étoiles
La blanche Ophélia flotte comme un grand lys,
Flotte très lentement, couchée en ses longs voiles...
- On entend dans les bois lointains des hallalis.

Voici plus de mille ans que la triste Ophélie
Passe, fantôme blanc, sur le long fleuve noir,
Voici plus de mille ans que sa douce folie
Murmure sa romance à la brise du soir.

Le vent baise ses seins et déploie en corolle
Ses grands voiles bercés mollement par les eaux ;
Les saules frissonnants pleurent sur son épaule,
Sur son grand front rêveur s'inclinent les roseaux.

Les nénuphars froissés soupirent autour d'elle ;
Elle éveille parfois, dans un aune qui dort,
Quelque nid, d'où s'échappe un petit frisson d'aile :
- Un chant mystérieux tombe des astres d'or.


II


O pâle Ophélia ! belle comme la neige !
Oui tu mourus, enfant, par un fleuve emporté !
C'est que les vents tombant des grand monts de Norwège
T'avaient parlé tout bas de l'âpre liberté ;

C'est qu'un souffle, tordant ta grande chevelure,
A ton esprit rêveur portait d'étranges bruits ;
Que ton coeur écoutait le chant de la Nature
Dans les plaintes de l'arbre et les soupirs des nuits ;

C'est que la voix des mers folles, immense râle,
Brisait ton sein d'enfant, trop humain et trop doux ;
C'est qu'un matin d'avril, un beau cavalier pâle,
Un pauvre fou, s'assit muet à tes genoux !

Ciel ! Amour ! Liberté ! Quel rêve, ô pauvre Folle !
Tu te fondais à lui comme une neige au feu :
Tes grandes visions étranglaient ta parole
- Et l'Infini terrible effara ton œil bleu !


III


- Et le Poète dit qu'aux rayons des étoiles
Tu viens chercher, la nuit, les fleurs que tu cueillis ;
Et qu'il a vu sur l'eau, couchée en ses longs voiles,
La blanche Ophélia flotter, comme un grand lys.


(Left in French because no English translation I've ever seen does it justice; besides, that way, it scares off Republicans!)

17. Yes, an ibex

an agouti is a small South American rodent; something like a squirrel, but without a tail.

18. oops! I'm embarassed!
At least I got it right on first recognition! It is an ibex...As for agouti, I was thinking of some other name for a wild bovine which I still cannot recall!
But on second thought, if you squint your eyes it does kinda look like a squirrel doesn't it? I mean people are confusing goats and squirrels all the time, right? Right? :silly:
