I can honestly say I have never in my life shoveled snow

TPBM received an email saying they can get money from a rich person in Africa and all they need to send is their bank account number

Nope, but I received email that I won in Green Card lottery and have to pay 860 USD to be send the documents.

TPBM loves to run out naked from the sauna and jump in to the snow.

The worst thing that went wrong with my hair wasn't coloring (or not coloring in the case of that henna I tried once) but when it was coming out in clumps. I have no idea whether that grew back or not.

TPBM has a chilling story about how the family left the old country and came to America.

I'm awful fond of purple, but green is also good. Maroon works. 4 days a week I go to work and my clothing is about conforming to some sort of office decorum, and not about being happy. But I am wearing my Ein Hammer shirt today.

TPBM got out some crayolas recently.

I question why people keep baiting Simon. Don't they know that you can only trust about a tenth of what comes out of his (and his socks') mouth, and that he's way ahead of us.

The person below me is still searching for the question with the answer 42.

I am wondering why I'm still up after 8:00 on a Friday... things certainly have changed.

I promised someone I would contact my local community garden this week and see if I could get involved there.

tpbm is going to make something for Burning Man this weekend.
