What have you been thinking about for straps? Just saw an interesting cabled strap over at Cursing Mama’s – looked like it would reduce the strap stretch factor.

maybe they’re so good at the pen spinning because of the dexterity they get from eating with chopsticks. I’m going ask DH if he can do that! (He’s from Nagasaki).

i’m with debby on the shire — haha. bessie the back-hoe would definitely get us a hefty fine.

that editorial is awesome — unfortunately not everyone is getting that side of the story. the nbc journalist taibbi who reported on it on the today show the next morning made it sound like clinton totally overreacted too. and it pissed me off.

Let us know how Chappy’s reading lessons go! Your point about the seeing eye dogs was well-taken; I’ve always wondered about that.

Thanks for the Shire link. The houses are pretty (and I love old houses), but they look a little too historical Stepford for me, as if you planted the wrong flowers in that neighborhood, you’d be severely fined. We have a lot of neighborhoods like that around here. It makes me want to put a sink on someone’s front porch when no one is looking!

I absolutely loved the concept of the Shire… until I encountered a reference to Thomas Kinkade, and then I closed my browser with a bloodcurdling shriek of horror.

I’ve already purchased Ariann, big surprise. I hope Chappy is an apt reading pupil, but I suspect he will be. Thank you for the link to that editorial.
