(The Gacka is in Croatia).

There are cabins near the Flume, and campsites even closer...

Gentlemen... There is Freshly Opened Water here ... too much to list, much of it remote. If anyone wants to go, PM me before the Black Flies. Where the hell is GBS...?!!! Is he pimping on the streets of Brooklyn, or did he go home w/the Pope...? :pimp::pope: It's also time for a few more...

The green-blooded skinks of the genus Prasinohaema possess highly toxic levels of biliverdin. (That's a bile pigment). The blood of every Green Skink is saturated w/the stuff. And any creature who crawls, or flies, or swims, near the surface of our earth... w/that much biliverdin...technically...
