Here the monkey thinks it's getting a turtle head, but the dastardly turtle put something else up there instead... a tree trunk or something.<br /><br />And for lunch today I was contemplating fixing a lovely turtle's head soup simmered in some of that ebullient borax bouillon I picked up in the Alps last month. Guess I could just go out. That would save a lot of fuss & bother.<br /><br />I suppose we know which creature I am. And the monkey's probably the last person to consult with if what you want is a non-misleading answer. Based on past experience. And anyway, I've been outfoxed. Again. Dammit!

The ability of the turtle to withdraw its limbs into its home can stand for the withdrawal of the senses from their customary external objects. 'Mind isolation' if you will. I'm in body isolation at the moment, a kind of retreat.
