I believe if the young lady will re-examine her scriptures, God is punishing the USA (floods, birds dropping out the skies, fish dying, etc.) because she’s not at home cooking and cleaning house! Tending to her husband. And kids.

The tulle strips pretty much just stayed crinkled when I crinkled them. This was the cheap spun plastic tulle that is easy to find at Joanns, not anything nice.

Shhh! They might hear you. Then, again, they are eavesdropping on your phone calls and probably don’t read your blog.

Un Uh! Back up, Sweetie. Blue Laws in Texas prohibited purchase of anything but Essentials on Sundays. Food, medicine and auto parts were okay. But before the repeal of the Blue Laws, about 1985 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_law), many stores actually arranged the store accordingly and roped off isles that had prohibited products. The laws were changed (ostensibly 1985) to now prohibit the sale of liquor before noon. (Having the good sense to keep a few bottles of wine on hand for special occasions, I don’t even consider putting a bottle in my cart if shopping early on Sunday…but I assume that part of the law is still in effect.)

As for zebras and Santa…

And to think, they were only 57 years old! I don’t think I have the energy to dig the hole.

This type of experiment is a sure sign of genius…

“In one experiment, to prove that color perception is caused by pressure on the eye, Newton slid a darning needle around the side of his eye until he could poke at its rear side, dispassionately noting “white, darke & colored circles” so long as he kept stirring with “ye bodkin.”"
