Once there ‘was a boy, a strange melancoly boy. He wandered very far, very far, over land and sea…’ “Uhm, just wondering, were you planning on singing or telling a Snapped Story?” That song, it’s so sad! “Ants can’t cry!” Says who, Tom Hanks? That’s in baseball and you’ve gotten terribly off subject. The…

Snapped: City View
I strolled down the lane, watching for obstacles. Scoping the environment like Liam Neeson in Taken, I was watching out for those high-end leather shoes. I as stepped below the building above, I felt peaceful, people far ahead or behind, I stopped a moment to enjoy the sun’s rays bounce off my exoskeleton. A bird pooped…
Quote of the Week: The Princess Bride
There are so many great quotes from this movie. This quote was said on the way to the Cliffs of Insanity. Taken by WillBakker from Flickr Probably some local fisherman out for a pleasure cruise, at night, through eel-infested waters. Hurry up, move the thing and that other thing! “Eliza you remind me of…
First Recipe Video!!
*Note: I took down this video because the high pitched noises were killing off the worldwide bat population. Until my human can speak without helium she will no longer be speaking during videos! Although our VJ star (Bebe) called out sick, we were able to through our first recipe video together. “Is that really how…
Eliza’s Fake Summer Rolls
Hello, welcome back to Opinionated Ant. Hungry? I was so I nagged my Human into making her fresh summer rolls. Before she would let me eat them though we had to make a how-to video. Normally, Bebe the Concert Aficionado would be in her princess apron and lording over the kitchen, but she was excused…
Snapped: Picnic Time
Once there was a hungry, desperate insect. Stealthily, she made her way across the lush jungle, all senses fixed upon the brown mountain ahead. If she could just make it to the precipice, her deliverance from starvation would be there waiting for her. Dodging great, clumsy giants she scurried as quick as her many legs could take her until, behold…
Quote of the Week: The Princess Bride
Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for a while. “Ahh, how sweet.” I’m nauseous. You humans got it all wrong. Ants are ruled by a matriarch, keeping the male ants around till the Queen is ready to have more children. They eat, procreate, then die. “Err, how sweet…”
Snapped: Maine Streets Are Made For Shooting
Pictures that is! Although, my humanoid has outdone herself in posting about Portland, Maine this week, here’s one of our favorite shots while walking Downtown. “That building makes me think of a ship, plowing through the ocean.” Or asphalt. “Or Kevin Kline hanging off the front of a pirate ship.” Okay you won. “Oh, I…
Quote of the Week: The Princess Bride
Am I going MAD, or did the word “think” escape your lips? You were not hired for your brains, you hippopotamic land mass. My Human is obsessed with this cult classic, as you readers no doubt know. “Since I’M your reader, than yes i can agree with you. Since meeting you Eliza Leigh I’ve looked are the…
Eliza Leigh Portraits
eL pic by chris eliopoulos Finally, my Humanoid has uploaded some beautiful pieces of artwork. As in me, of course. Many months ago, HT got her timing right (this is very rare) and started following Chris Eliopoulos (Cartoonist i.e. Misery Loves Sherman) on Twitter in time to get a drawing done. Since she was able to get anything drawn, naturally she chose me….
