Umm, right. I merely thought the article was funny because I hadn't heard of those wild mountain dew theories before.

And I denied you the top post this time Bob.

I fail to see the point of that...

No point really. I just thought I would point it out as you had mentioned you had claimed some of the previous ones.

My first thought was
"A light from our household is gone.
A voice we have loved is stilled
A place is vacant in our hearts
That never can be filled"

I am so obviously a product of my mother that this would be the first thing to come to my mind.

I just spent nearly thirty dollars at the BYU book sale. But it is okay I think. That is still less than the retail price of one of the books I got, and I bought four!

And in case anyone is interested, they have the first Mistborn book there. It is by the same author that wrote Elantris, and is very good. Not as good as Elantris, but good nonetheless. And it is only $5 for the hardcover.

? I work out there, and somehow I missed that one...

Oh well, I can't spend more money. I've already done over forty dollars.

Holy crap. I spent forty dollars on books Monday and Tuesday. Oops.

Too bad I'm not there... I love cheap good books...

Anyone want some fish? I have a bunch of these guys and would love to give some away to a caring home.

Oh, and the checker who helped me said that she just put those books out this morning, so that may be why you missed them.

Fish in our house tend to last about a week, no matter what we do, so not me.

Well, maybe it's for the best that I didn't see them. Now if only I can avoid working there for the rest of the week...

I just got soaked on my way home, because I was helping a crane not get killed in the middle of the road.

A crane? Really? Was it a big one?

I saw some cranes while in/around Yellowstone, and they were huge! And loud. It was sweet.

The last fish I had (an indestuctible Beta, no less) died when I was 8 months pregnant with kid #1. It died because I forgot to feed it for about 3 weeks. And in my hormonally whale-like state, I bawled at how I was going to be an awful mother if I couldn't even take care of a fish. My husband was finally able to convince me that babies are a little better at reminding you they are hungry. Poor Materioptikon had a little trouble vocalizing his plight, however.

I read a story one time about how these people had to go get a crane from a few blocks away to lift the car that rolled over and was on top of someone.

Oops... wrong crane...

It was a black one. It tried to bite my bike. This one was kinda small, but we do have those huge grey ones.

I... I am not sure what to say to that. I guess wondering how many bugs splat against his chest?
