Red and Rover by Brian Basset for July 29, 2013

All the other dogs will want to dig for dinosaur bones, too!

Just stay out of the garden or mom will have a bone to pick with you.

That just leaves the grass. There is a lot of it, no problem if some of it is “lost”

TexMichael: There is an incongruity between your name and your comment, with the whole state ranging from “abnormally dry” to “exceptional drought”, despite the recent rains and big cities flooding surrounding farms and wilderness so the rich can have grass.

That stegosaurus bone would last Rover for the rest of his life…

dzw3030: Can you read? The rich are ordering their bought and paid for regional governments to take land to flood for lakes so they will have water for their grass, while farmers are losing land that has been in their families over a century. These lakes just increase the loss of water through evaporation while destroying the food supply. Dallas already has over 50 years supply at present growth rate, while people lose their property. Conservation, xeroscaping, and public concern could extend that to 75 years, but it has become a selfish obsession. Fannin County is set to lose 20% of its land for this destructive flooding, just for lawns of the big city rich.
