While many people have rigid ideas of what a dragon should be, my own thoughts on the subject have always been a bit more fluid.

We have many friends in Alaska and this morning early, they were shaken awake by a seismic event.

Fortunately they are all safe, sane and hopefully sleeping by now. I do not miss the joys of living in the ring of Fire.
