We didn't get the chance to go up inside, which would have been kinda cool with my fear of heights, but it IS a marvel of engineering. is there anywhere else onthe planet where such a thing is possible?

"Here are real men...note they are gas passers. "

So is that your real job? Passing gas at the dentists office?

"Black Labs are the best. I don't know what your big dope of a husband has against big dogs. "

My hubby doesn't just dislike big dogs, he dislikes all pets and refuses to let me replace the evil kitten. *sniff* he let his ex-wife have 3 dogs in the house but I can't have just one.

Good idea but they outnumber and outmean us. They also seem to be smarter than us. But we have more vafrous tricks.
