Monkies, Golddiggers and Sloths

I've been looking at the statistics for this blog and it seems most of my very few visitors over the last couple of months seem to come from three sources.

One is from the Catholic Ragemonkey. Welcome to all of you, even though I haven't posted anything specifically catholic in a long time. Well, I haven't posted much of anything at all.

The second source is from people seeking pictures of Anna Benson, soon to be ex-wife of Oriole pitcher Kris Benson. This is due to the post where I mentioned that Anna Benson was going to be an Oriole wife and also that I had bought a new digital camera with which I was hoping to take some nice pictures. But not pictures of Anna Benson. Sorry, but you will find no pictures of Anna Benson on this website. For that, might I suggest her website.

The last group comes searching for information on sloths. So here you go. Yes, sloths are generally nocturnal. They are slow moving mammals that come from South America. They have long gray or brown hair, which is often covered in algae. They hang upside down from branches and do most everything upside down including eat, sleep, and mate. They eat tree leaves and sleep most of the day. Their slow metabolism and digestion means that they don't need to eat much and as a result only need to defecate once or twice a week, which is one of the few times they come down from the trees. There are two types of sloth: three-toed (genus: Bradypus) and two-toed (genus: Choloepus). For more information, might I suggest The Sloth Web Site or Sloth.com
