Can someone please tell me what this is? As far as I can tell, it is "black." Mike and I were going about our daily business and we kept finding a trail of slightly spongy/slightly crispy black chewings. Which led us to Ivy standing proudly by her pile of "black" looking as if she had just invented fire. It is absolutely unidentifiable and is limited to its very few visible characteristics. So evidently "black" is a Thing Great Danes Eat. I know, how very metaphysical. I believe the two questions striving to animate the metaphysical argument, i.e., 1) what is there? and 2) what is it like?, are definitively answered and satisfied by "black." Yes, that's Professor Ivy, if you please.
I think there's a possibility that it's the remains of the absolute black spaceship that was observed at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe -- so black that it absorbed all incident light. Great Danes eat spaceships?
ReplyDeleteit may be the underlayer of a carpet..you know the foamy bit?
ReplyDeleteIn nay case, ivy is looking very pleased.
I also found similar black stuff about my house. It turns out Daisy managed to chew apart a Kong. I had no idea a dog could literally destroy one of those but she was very proud of herself for reducing it to 1" pieces.
ReplyDeleteIvy looks very happy for her accomplishment. I hope you gave her lots of praise!
You crack me up! This struck me as so funny that I cried! Thanks for the laugh, my dear sweet Em!!
ReplyDeletei think ivy was simply brewing up lumps of coal in hiding (or not) for your holiday gifties no?!
