Anyone else going to see Wilson speak at Town Hall?

Ummm...now he informs me his birthday is Sunday, not tomorrow as originally claimed Let's see if he remembers how old ihe is this year.

Thought I'd get the ball rolling a day early... Here's to you Pax!

Fat men in sweatpants are worse. They always seem to have poorly mended seams in all the wrong places.

I hate snowmobiles more.

Me too. So I guess my score is "ADHD" But really, those tests are total BS...

Dr Smashed, I beg to differ...there were at least three of your countrymen in the answers... Pax, where are the pictuers to prove it?

Glad folks came out... I agree it was a chimney in there...nasty! As far as the questions, you guys got off easy...I got complaints from a few members of the non-climbing public that the picture round where you had to ID the mountains was way too hard. Even drC was stumbling!

I wonder if AlpineK has taken a chainsaw to a treehouse...?

dr C., I'll be the MC--making up the questions, and reading them. Glad to see you are a BoxCar trivia regular. I was there three weeks ago and found the trivia pretty easy (but I was by far the oldest person in the crowd ) So my questions will probably be a bit harder... I did confirm with the bar that it's $5 per team and the winning team takes all. Hope to see y'all tomorrow night (starts at 8)

where is the end to it?

The Neuticles!

You are correct, and I did consider that. But I guess I group the MBA in a different category than say, a Masters of Fine Arts or Russian History. It seems to be more of a professional degree.

Hah! My mom used to complain that the other ladies in her masters program were just seeking "MRS" degree... no *Ms.* snuggies only has a bachelors...but one day she hopes to have a PhD. Or at least a Ph-balanced deoderant. Mr. E: it's just a poll I thought up in the spur of the moment. I'm not implying that one can't get an education without a degree.

What is your highest level of education?

Perhaps there's an Annabelle slide show coming your way!

Is anyone else annoyed by the flu shot pushers? At my office the administrative staff seems to get their kicks from sending out flu shot emails every fall. They send dozens of these. Then lately I started to notice people I know saying that they *had* to get a flu shot. What is up with this? When did flu shots become the norm?? I certainly did not grow up with them. From everything I've read flu shots have limited efficacy, and that preventative measures like washing hands and not putting your hands in your mouth and eyes are the best defense against the flu (not to mention cheaper) Also, contrary to what people would like to believe, flu shots will *not* protect against the H5N1 avain flu, which is the one everyone's worried will cause a big pandemic. Resist the flu shot craze, I say. Most people should forgo it so babies, the elderly and people with weak immune systems can have it.

you folks are helpful.

I'm here for work. Just have one night in town. where should I go for dinner? Recommendations, please!

you forgot the serrano pepper. And don't overcook the beans.

Thought I otter share this with y'all: http://www.blessedherbs.com/photos2i.html

It might have been a cool Dada esque concept, but I predict that it gets commercialized and people go up the mountain just to see this dumb bunny. I can see that its intended effect would be on random hikers who chance upon the giant bunny and are amazed, bewildered, and amused by the absurdity of the endeavor. But I have no doubt tour busses will start arriving and people will be herded up...to see an oversized pink stocking on a hill. The kids will be like "when will we get to the bunny? where's the bunny?" and the parents will be like, "hold on, we'll get to the damn bunny when we get there." And then they get there....and will be like, "That's it?!" Then again it serves them right for taking a tour bus. OK, I'm not sure why I even care about this...

sleeping bunny...

smarty pants.

Where is the bunny?
