  1. Excuse me for highjacking this thread, but this is one of the best good things ever…..

    Brian, the world’s leading expert on European
    wasps and the sounds that they make, is taking
    a stroll down his local high street. As he
    passes by the record shop, a sign catches
    his eye. “Just Released – New LP – Wasps of
    the World & the sounds that they make –
    available now”

    Unable to resist the temptation, Brian goes
    into the shop. “I am the world’s leading
    expert on European wasps and the sounds
    that they make. I’d very much like to listen
    to the new LP you have advertised in
    the window.”

    “Certainly, Sir,” says the young man behind
    the counter. “If you’d like to step into
    the booth and put on the headphones, I’ll
    put the LP on for you.”

    Brian, the world’s leading expert on
    European wasps, goes into the booth and puts
    on the earphones. Ten minutes later, he comes
    out of the booth and announces, “I am the
    world’s leading expert on European wasps
    and the sounds that they make and yet I
    recognised none of those.”

    “I’m sorry Sir”, says the young assistant.
    “If you’d care to step into the booth, I
    can let you have another 10 minutes.”

    Brian, the world’s leading expert on
    European wasps and the sounds they make,
    steps back into the booth and replaces
    the headphones. Ten minutes later, he comes
    out of the booth shaking his head. “I don’t
    understand it”, he says, “I am the worlds
    leading expert on European wasps and the
    sounds that they make, and yet I still
    can’t recognise any of those!”

    “I really am terribly sorry”, says the
    young assistant…

    “I’ve just realised I was playing you
    the bee side!”

  2. I guess my two cats just didn’t make the cut. Sorry, guys. But seriously, are they being good or what?

  3. they’re very cute and i think they like it here. i’m getting used to the sound of furniture crashing to the floor when they chase each other (which seems to be in the early morning and around 2am).

    none of them have mastered the art of running on hardwood yet. i think they all have mini-concussions from ramming their heads into the walls when they can’t stop.

    they’ve also taken to sleeping under the covers of the bed. so when the bed is made there are one to two lumps on it.

    other than that it’s as quiet as a church around here 🙂

  4. good luuuuuuuuuck fingers crossed!

    haha the eye of Wilma is going RIGHT over my inlaws place right now

  5. my aunt has the same type of pool enclosure and if it isn’t the cats walking on it or the dog not seeing it and running right through it, it usually stands up well during hurricanes (she lives in daytona).

    wow, your in-laws’ place is gorgeous – there’s something about the nice areas of florida – they’re really pretty.

  6. Thanks, lucky for me they’re as nice as the house they live in 🙂

    SO FAR.
