How can I be so busy while I'm doing nothing? It's hectic flipping off the walls.

In a significant "Longest" news update: Actually not an update since I don't think I ever posted about this here, I happen to be the happy owner of one of those "EcoSphere" sealed glass eggs that are almost filled with water and have a twig and a few pebbles inside, along with some little red shrimps. It looks just like this one:  My beloved and most generous sister-in-law and her hubby gave it to me as a present, I think it was over 8 years ago. As you may know, the ecosystem inside the sealed egg is somewhat self-sustaining since sunlight allows some algae growth and the shrimps eat the algae, and a happy cycle continues, sort of like the carrousel of life we're on. I'm under the impression that eventually the shrimps die off since I don't think they actually reproduce in there, and as most of us know, brine shrimp don't live forever  However, to my surprise, the shrimps inside my egg have been alive for over 8 years now!!! (< well, at least I'm suprised about that). Reading on EcoSphere's website, apparently a properly balanced egg can have shrimps alive for about 10 years or so.To alleviate any curiosity you may have about my eco egg, I will post updates occasionally. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you. Yours truly, The Master of the Shrimp EcoSphere Universe ps: if someone finds a way to trace the EcoSphere serial number to a documented age, my has s/n 50153 |

One of these days, I'm gonna click on ones of those videos and I'm gonna smile.
It's boggling that I'm too razy to do so even now, after 15+ pages since tophat joined the scrolls of history.

I am told that the one man band is an excellent foreplay for a long time.

Population: 7000 (of which 1000 are college students)
49.5% of the population are married couples living together. 19% of the population are 66 and older, and live alone. For every 100 females over the age of 18 there are 83.4 males. There are ten taverns, one bowling alley, a miniscule library, and a hundred and fifty two churches. There is a lovely dog park. There are five to fifteen people that hang out at the library frequently. They never make eye contact, and look at me dismissively, when I attempt to say hello. There is a lovely dog park. |

ring, after you're finished reading or researching, let's race around the library.
I used to chase Maria the only Italian girl in our school around the library...literally "chase", since she ran a lot faster than I could. But that was 49 years ago and I run faster now than I did then. |
