I prefer seedless, but they are never truly seedless, are they...

Well, here we are in the middle of "Simplify Your Life" week. Has anyone had any succes in this regard? Would sure like to hear about it, if so.
It is also the middle of "psychic" week. Time to get out the old crystal ball and take a peek! Hmmmm, do I see Skyhawk eating some watermelon? And is he really enjoying it by letting the juice run freely down his chin and down his arms to the elbows? Whoops, the crystal is getting cloudy. I guess we will never know for sure.

Nah, the crystal ball is wrong. It's so hot here that I just crushed the thing on my head straight from the fridge.
My life actually became more complex this week as a result of a promotion at work.
Anyone have a twin?

Skyhawk, congratulations on your promotion. Don't let it drive you nuts!
No twins here. You can rest easy.

This day is aptly named, although I've been working like a dog for the whole week. Actually, if you think about it, "working like a dog" doesn't make much sense. Most dogs I know sit around all day or play outside.

Did anyone get the chance today to climb high up in a lighthouse to watch the sea serpents at play. I would have loved to do that but alas, there is a huge mountain range between me and the ocean. So I had to stay home and play scrabble.  |

You mean there isn't a lighthouse up on top of that huge mountain?
I would do the zucchini thing but my wife used it last night for dinner. The rest are too small to harvest yet.

Naw, no lighthouse. You take your life in your own hands if you float a ship around here.

Operaghost,
I'm not sure when that day is, but I would suggest you keep in practice so you are ready when it comes.

Thursday is an appropriate day to start because humankind is a rather odd creature. All other animals on earth operate almost totally on instinctual wisdom. The along come the humans who were given free choice..............very odd indeed.
