The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals


http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/alphabet.gif




The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals. We are all familiar with
 http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/herd-of-cows.jpg
a Herd of cows,
http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/flock-of-chickens..jpeg
a Flock of chickens,
 http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/school-of-fish.jpeg
a School of fish
 http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/gaggle-of-geese.jpeg
and a Gaggle of geese.
However, less widely known is:
 http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/pride-of-lions.jpeg
a Pride of lions,
 http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/murder-of-crows.jpg
a Murder of crows
 http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/rooks-and-ravens.jpg
(as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens),
 http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/exaltation-of-doevs.jpg
an Exaltation of doves and, presumably
because they look so wise:
 http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/parliament-of-owls.jpg
a Parliament of owls.
 http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/baboons.jpg
Now consider a group of Baboons.
They are the loudest, most dangerous,
most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive
and least intelligent of all primates.
And what is the proper collective noun for
a group of baboons? ? ? Believe it or not …….
a Congress!
http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/congress1.jpg
A CONGRESS OF BABOONS!
 I guess that pretty much explains the things that come out of Washington !

http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/baboon.jpeg

http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/baboom3.jpg

http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/baboon2.jpg
You just can't make this stuff up.
Go green – Recycle Congress in 2012 !!!

“Rather, I think one should write, as nearly as possible, as if he were the first person on earth and was humbly and sincerely putting on paper that which he saw and experienced and loved and lost; what his passing thoughts were and his sorrows and desires.” -Neal Cassady to Jack Kerouac

“Avoid the world, it’s just a lot of dust and drag and means nothing in the end.” Jack Kerouac
