His philosophy was a mixture of three famous schools -- the Cynics, the Stoics and the Epicureans -- and summed up all three of them in his famous phrase, 'You can't trust any bugger further than you can throw him, and there's nothing you can do about it, so let's have a drink."

I think I got very lucky the first couple of times and now I think they are all hard. I probably should sit down and try to better understand how the classifications work.

Rose - I think the first few I did were all mammals, and I wasn't prepared for thinking out of the box, like other vertebrates, let alone invertebrates. We are just lucky that the selection list is such a small sample of what is actually out there.
From the British Natural History Museum: "There are roughly 400,000 species of beetle known to science, from miniscule insects less than half a millimetre long to giants longer than a chihuahua." Nooooooooooooo!

I think maybe they exaggerated a little - the biggest beetles are only about 6 or 8 inches long.
