Last year, Dave got Berta a 10-pound bar of Ghirardelli chocolate for Christmas.
I'm not sure what provoked this selfless giving of confection, but 10 pounds is a whole heck of a lot of chocolate. It came in a large cardboard container, shaped like a candy bar. I would guess that it is about two feet long.
Thinking of giving a CD for Christmas this year? Think again! This amusing site (ok, page) makes some interesting points from the perspective of a 12-year-old.
Our cat, Tigger, died two weeks ago. This is not Benny, my mom's cat that recently died, but the diabetic of our twin cats.
Dave was over on Friday night of that week when Tigger was acting very strangely. We were playing a video game when I heard a strange thumping noise coming from the kitchen.
Unless you've had your head in the sand over the past few days, you've probably noticed that they captures Saddam Hussein.
One aspect fo the capture that intrigues me is the idea of what to do next. If you've heard the Vatican's ideas about the capture, you've no doubt heard them repeat their opposition to the death penalty. But my question at this point is, "If you don't kill him, what do you do?"
I've been trying to get ahead on my Christmas gifts, and I recently placed an order with Amazon to get a bunch of things all at once.
When they came in, I proceeded to wrap them. I started out with a certain methodology for wrapping, but as I ran out of paper, I just used what I had left.
