Bog

A bog is a mire that accumulates peat, a deposit of dead plant material—often mosses, and in a majority of cases, sphagnum moss. It is one of the four main types of wetlands. Other names for bogs include mire, quagmire, and muskeg; alkaline mires are called fens. They are frequently covered in ericaceous shrubs rooted in the sphagnum moss and peat. The gradual accumulation of decayed plant material in a bog functions as a carbon sink.

Bogs occur where the water at the ground surface is acidic and low in nutrients. In some cases, the water is derived entirely from precipitation, in which case they are termed ombrotrophic (rain-fed). Water flowing out of bogs has a characteristic brown colour, which comes from dissolved peat tannins. In general, the low fertility and cool climate results in relatively slow plant growth, but decay is even slower owing to the saturated soil. Hence peat accumulates. Large areas of landscape can be covered many metres deep in peat.

Bogs have distinctive assemblages of plant and animal species, and are of high importance for biodiversity, particularly in landscapes that are otherwise settled and farmed.

Bogø

Bogø is a Danish island in the Baltic Sea, just west of Møn. The population is 1,108 (1 January 2013) with 870 living in the only town on the island, Bogø By. The island is approximately 7 km long by 3 km wide at the largest points, with a total area of 13 km². Maximum height above sea level is 32 metres.

To the west of Bogø is a smaller island, Farø, which carries the E47/E55 motorway from Copenhagen to the major islands of Lolland and Falster. The routes continue via ferry to Germany. Bogø is connected by causeway to both Farø and Møn, and carries one of the two main routes for vehicles travelling to Møn. It is part of Vordingborg Municipality.

The island has a varied landscape including wooded areas and traditional villages. To the northwest of the island at Skåninge is a small harbour and bathing jetty. To the south east is a larger harbour with a car ferry which operates during summer months to Stubbekøbing on Falster. Near the centre of the island is a preserved windmill from 1852, which is being restored to form a working museum.

    Oh God, you are my hero,
    You're my main man.
    Oh God, you are my hero,
    You're my main man.
    I read the bible everyday
    To see what you have got to say
    It doesn't make no sense to me
    I'd rather read the beano!
    Oh God, you are my hero,
    You're my main man.
    Oh God, you are my hero,
    You're my main man.
    So what if I dont go to heaven?
    It's all a load of '27'
    I'll have a better time in hell,
    Don't want to be an angel!
    Oh God, you are my hero,
    You're my main man.
    Oh God, you are my hero,
    You're my main man.
    The things you preach are out of reach
    I'm getting crucified!
    How viddy he bog as a rabid dog
    Selling fucking lies!?
    Oh God, you are my hero,
    You're my main man.
    Oh Bog!
    Oh God, you are my hero,
    You're my main man.
    Oh Bog!
