I came acro..."We are built around holes." I came across this disturbing concept when I listened to a RadioLab podcast on "Guts" recently. "The human body is a donut, and we have a hole all the way through us. What seems to be inside us, inside our stomach, is actually outside us." <br /><br />!!!<br /><br />So maybe we could alternately title your post, "Of Buttes and Butts?"Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02187854108656107958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740983595962649109.post-1573101510839428702013-04-10T23:51:00.435-07:002013-04-10T23:51:00.435-07:00And here in Australia we also dug holes to China. ...And here in Australia we also dug holes to China.

As a child, I remember attempting to dig holes to China with the aide of a sand shovel and a vivid imagination. <br />As an adult, I often find myself trying to dig out of holes that I've haphazardly gotten myself into.<br /><br />Having always had a desperate need for attention and validation, I'm delighted that you were kind enough to mention my blog.<br />My writing is wholly unworthy of praise, and I'm certain that more than a few of my readers think I have too many holes in my head.<br /><br />As for West Texas, I've been holed up here far too long. Despite the aid of a steam shovel, I haven't yet been successful in digging my way out. Perhaps I should follow the example of Texas Ranger Thos. Lubbock and try digging upwards......Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619128793632680659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740983595962649109.post-22652310760995725612013-04-10T16:10:51.035-07:002013-04-10T16:10:51.035-07:00Delores-- Thanks.
