Naming the characters and searching for the right amount of exoticness,
and Jariah was that. Listening to the radio, background noise from another time
I thought I heard Welsh singer Tom Jones sing ‘My,my,my Jariah’ and noted
that’s an unusual name. It was sometime later I realized he was actually
singing ‘My,my,my Delilah’
About the Lizard.
The Blue Tongue Lizard incident happened when a young airman took his fianc’e
to visit his parents in a small country town. Playing a round of golf he came
across a large blue tongue lizard which he put, snug, inside his bomber jacket,
and continued with his golf round and then went home.
At home his fianc’e was packing for the return to the city. The case was on the
bed and into it he popped the blue tongue unbeknownst to his fianc’e. So this
born and bred city girl turned around to place clothes in the case, saw the reptile,
screamed, threw the clothes in the air and bolted down the corridor and
outside.
About the dog and cattle.
This event shows just how dangerous cattle can be.
The story happened as described – and old dog and angry cows
protecting calves. Cattle farmers advise, don’t allow dogs (city dogs/pets) in
with cattle, as cattle can show a menacing and given the opportunity a fatal
interest. I have seen mature cows puts the calves in the center of a circle to
protect from prowling predators.
