  • Oops! Sorry! I forgot to give the [flash] warning.
  • My grandad found a bird embryo once. "It's hard; almost plasticky," he said. I took it from him, pointed out that it had a hole in the bottom, "MADE IN HONG KONG" printed on a wing and that it was, in fact, a toy pterodactyl.
  • Having played with skinks all the time when I was younger, I can tell you that they really only make that thump sound when you throw them at the concrete as hard as possible.
  • My garden is full of grey skinks. Interesting factoid
  • Maybe I'll just stop and rest for a minute.
  • Yes, rest, perhaps for THREE DAYS so I can catch up.
  • And somehow, BearGuy manages to convince the Nickdanger of three days ago to stop and wait... Now if he could convince the me of three days ago not to drink all that rum.
