Sorry, at this time the other Bridgers books are enrolled in Kindle Unlimited on Amazon, which means that they can only be available on Amazon as Kindle books. Perhaps I will pull them out of KU at some point if KU gets to a point at which it is not working well for me. (less)

In our neck of the woods: Centipedes

It's late March, and things are warming up here. After seeing very few invertebrates during the winter months, Trish and I were on a hike a few days ago, and she spotted what may be the largest centipede we have found in Missouri. It was about 3 inches (7.6 cm) long and seemed to be on the prowl, roaming around looking for prey (FIRST PHOTO).

FYI—centipedes and millipedes are very different. Each g Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Stan C. Smith  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“My parents were anthropologists. They studied indigenous people here in New Guinea, and I know exactly what you’re referring to. People know of poverty because they have learned about personal possessions and money. People know shame because they were shown clothing. They live in fear because they were given modern weapons”
Stan C. Smith, Diffusion

“Quentin was floating in space. Stars were everywhere, all around him, above and below. The stars appeared to be passing by in the vast distance, as if he were moving at unimaginable speed. A cold loneliness washed over him, a sensation that he’d been alone for a long, long time. Quentin noticed one particular star growing larger as it approached. It continued to grow, until he had to look away from its blinding light.”
Stan C. Smith, Diffusion

“We’re all biologists, not geologists,” Xavier said. “But I’ve read speculation that rising ocean levels from global warming are affecting the tectonic plates in some ways no one had predicted.”
Stan C. Smith, The Lure of Infinity
