As a kid I identified with the Platypus.
Y'know -- kind of an outsider. These days I look on this as a blessing, gives me a kind of third eye perspective, a hint or two about the machinations of cliques. The existence of the Platy makes me think the Creator has a sense of humor.

That explains why the Big 3 take jets, they have webbed feet, lots of fur, and a tale like a beaver and a bill no one can handle! Yes, sounds like a happy hour deal to me! An extended lunch, a several martini imbibing and then fall right on their play-pusses before Congress! That's right, just atypical Friday! LMAO Shelly

Ahhh, now I know when one of the cars I had in my past life was made. It must not only have been a Friday, but the 13th to boot.

Let me tell you, I worked in an automotive factory for 14 years and on Friday,( If there's no weekend overtime)towards the end of the shift, anything goes..lol !
