Celery Chomping Mountain Lions

More thoughts on Ms SUV:  Maybe her and I were separated at birth. At times on the recent hike I took with her, we seemed to get along like feuding sisters.  I'd rather take my chances walking alone and getting eaten by celery chomping mountain lions than make Ms SUV my regular hiking partner.  Too bad for me because she likes to explore and has lots of spunk!

I was inspired to coin the phrase "celery chomping mountain lions" after listening to an NPR segment on a book about how animal sounds are often faked in nature movies.  To make the sound of a lion crunching down on its prey, for instance, the sound person breaks a stalk of celery
