American Icon

1) American Icon---> bald eagle，Bald eagles are not actually bald; the name derives from an older English meaning of the word, "white headed".

“Whether they have to beg, borrow or  steal, these birds of prey will take any food. They are savvy survivors with a firm grip on their role as the America's Icon."  太精辟了，为达目的，不择手段！

The above quote is from the following Youtube video starting at 17:16

2)中文天气谚语： 朝霞不出门，晚霞行千里。 不用字面翻译，现成的英文 proverb.

   Red sky at night sailor's delight, red sky in morning sailor's warning.

Amazing humans all observed and summarized the same weather phenomenon. 

Tomorrow should be a good day.

3) Introducing my golden angel.  A few quotes of dog

     "Dog spelled backward is God."

     "Golden retrivers are not man's best friends, they are everyone's best friends."

     "Golden retrivers are not dogs, they are golden angels."

  The Golden Retriever is breeded as retriving dog in hunting parties with very gentle bite. Their gentle, tolerant, kind, obdient and loving nature gained them the reputation of golden angels.  They are very intelligent and willing to please their owners and accept trainings.

  You can stuff an egg into his mouth, he won't crush it. You can snatch a ball from his mouth he won't hurt you.

I have a crush on him!
