Pigs are big news these days and The Merkin was truly prescient in his juxtaposition of beauty and lard (particularly bellies) in a previous posting.
Just a coincidence, perhaps.
Fair enough, the pig was not wearing lipstick and should you be seized of the mistaken belief that pigs never fly, then it is just possible that Grannie Palin may one day have her finger on The Button.
However, once the pig is out of the poke you can't get it back so easily.
And just to show how absolutely dangerous pigs can be, a cautionary tale from a land down under.
'A pig the size of a Shetland pony has trapped an Australian woman in her village home, the national broadcaster reported Tuesday.Caroline Hayes, 63, has tried leave her house in Uki in northern New South Wales to use the outdoor toilet but says the animal has bitten her and shoved her back inside.'
Pork Chops for thought, eh?

I always tie it down where possible.
I have roo-bar-bars on the front of my 4by4 whenever I travel in the bush.
Nowt to do with Kanga or Roo either.
Just imagine.
" The life of Merkin" released and open for all the Scots to see.
Then "Merkin in Aussi Lands" might get a second chance.
I think I would like to have been a travel writer - evn though the world is getting increasingly dangerous.
And, I have read enough Bill Bryson to know where I don't want to go.
Wat about the Polar Bears?
'Wat about the Polar Bears?'
They can come with me if they want.
