Ellynlvx Knowflake Posts: 10490 From: the Point of Light within the Mind of God Registered: Aug 2013	posted May 09, 2014 10:45 PM Wow, that would be So Neat. Pizza and Covered Bridges. Together? How cool is That? Ha.. On my twenty first birthday we went to a place called the Shadowbrook, and it had a little waterfall and creek running through it. Here's a couple of pictures: Then I almost got kidnapped by these DeadHeads, cause they had to get out of town before they got busted, and I was trying to pick out the best birthday tie-dye shirt. Lucky that bus didn't take me cross-country to your neck of the woods... Then we went to the Catalyst and I had my first Brandy Stinger. Kept that glass for years. Then I tried to drive off on this Triumph Motorcycle (which I couldn't even hold up, let alone know how to drive.) What a night. Never did learn to drive til I lived out in a Cabin in the Boonies, and it was almost mandatory. Think I was thirty? Oh gosh, didn't mean to go off on such a tangent here, but that is One Cool Restaurant! Did you see that UnderWater One? http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum30/HTML/000087.html That was pretty special, too. IP: Logged

Registered: Feb 2012	posted May 10, 2014 10:25 AM MURDER a murder of crows -This more poetic term for a flock of crows can be traced back at least to the 15th century, when it was recorded as a murther of crowes. Murther is a variant of Middle English murthre 'murder,' though the th sound had begun to be replaced with a d around 1300 C.E. There are several theories as to how this particular term came about, but all of them have to do with the supposed behavior of crows. For instance, crows are scavengers and therefore often seen feeding on rotting bodies of various sorts. Survivors of wars have described how the battlefields were covered in black as crows (and ravens) came down to eat the dead. Another theory hearkens back to old folklore which told of groups of crows essentially holding court over members of their flock that had committed offenses. If they decide against the "defendant" crow, then the rest of the flock swoops down on it and kills it. There are legends outside of the Germanic culture that relate to crows being judges over people as well, and how their appearance is an omen of death. http://word-ancestry.livejournal.com/58301.html Not enough crows to qualify as a Murder Of Crows.
