It's September...and spring in the Land of Oz.
You gotta laugh...it makes your day.
Got this in an email:
We are all familiar with
a Herd of cows,
a Flock of chickens,
a School of fish
and a Gaggle of geese.
A Pride of lions,
a Murder of crows.
An Exaltation of doves and, presumably because they look so wise, a Parliament of owls.
Now consider a group of Baboons.
They are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all primates.
And what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons?
Believe it or not ........ They are called a Congress!
I guess that pretty much explains the things that come out of Washington and Canberra (Oz)!!
Am I being mean... ?
Naaawwww.....not mean, just honest!
ReplyDeleteBawhahaha Good one. Needed the laugh.
ReplyDeleteLook at that I did not know.
ReplyDeleteI learned a laugh.
Thanks, loved the pictures!
May the God of the seasons and baboons bless you!
Not at all! LOL !!! God bless. :)
ReplyDeleteI think that pretty much says it all...(at least for Washington, I can't speak for Canberry.)
ReplyDeleteI had heard a murder of crows (and believe me listening to a group f them can be murderous. Nothing else likes to crow about themselves as much as a crow.) Anyway, I had not heard about a congress of baboons.
Thanks for the laugh - a good way to begin my day!
Blessings,
Joan
Forgive my spelling, I meant Canberra. :)
ReplyDeleteThey named 'em right!
ReplyDeleteNow this really did put a smile on my face this morning. Blessings, Lloyd
ReplyDeleteNot mean, just funny!!!! I have actually printed this to record for our church prayer and info line! You gave me a good laugh today!
ReplyDeleteFood for thought! Probably in the days when they came up with the expression, they also had a congress.
ReplyDeleteCrystal, this is just hilarious! Your post was so unique and informative. I never hear that a group of crows was called a murder! That's terrible... but a congress of baboons... now that is really funny (and fitting?!)
ReplyDeleteYour post made my day.
Love
Lidj
It is so the truth, lol.... LJ

ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteI'm Denise, from Brazil and I have followed your blog with my blog Daughters of Sarah, remember?
I invite you to access another blog, which is my family.
We have been together as a family to win all our families to Christ. So we want to encourage with this blog, that all Christians do the same.
Be part of this army of warriors who are willing to live the gospel, pray and talk about Jesus, His Word and His kingdom to all families. Our families and our brothers around the world need to know and surrender to the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Together we are better and stronger and the world know that we are the Lord if we love each other.
In Jesus, peace!
