I want them to show the cheerleaders at the volleyball! Those yellow bikini type suits are kind of cool.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Are you sure that's a slide and not the conveyer belt at the UPS distribution center? Have you been shipping Noah to daycare?! No wonder he's got kayak issues.

Those conveyor belt slides have pros and cons. I like them better than metal and they aren't as hot as the plastic slides but there can be pinching issues (for my fat ass, anyway). On the upside, they do not get puddles of water at the end after rainy days.

We avoided pinching. I'd never seen one before. I figured it was a result of the slide being at such a shallow angle. But it IS like a UPS conveyor belt.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

trampoline is at least fun to watch. rhythmic does nothing for me.

Yes! I'm sure it must be AMAZINGLY difficult to do -- I just don't care.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

In my family we give presents for un-birthdays, because there are more of them in the year. When inspiration strikes, it's "Hey, I got you something. Happy Un-Birthday!"

When we have lists, we let others know, but there is no obligation to stick to them. I tend to look through lists for things that I would like too. When inspiration fails I default to munchies from HarryAndDavid.com.
