I am looking online at pink flowering trees that I can buy for my building's garden. trees are expensive.

They are indeed.

Coding and Sleeping

One of the big minuses of the Element that I was going to mention is the way the doors open. Because they both swing outward, there's simply no room to get into the back in tight spaces

Those big sliding doors in minivans are wonderful for dealing with car seats. Right now we have the van in kid limo mode with the second row of seats out and the kids in the rear row with a cavern of space ahead of them.

I'd probably want to do something like that. When we were thinking about the Matrix or Forester, the close proximity of back seat to front seat seemed like an open invitation for a toddler to kick the driver. 'Course, with Li'l Jandek only three months old now, we're looking forward a bit.

Blizzard trees!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

trees are expensive.

That's why they charged the people a dollar and a half just to see 'em.

I had three disastrous situations pre-lunch, and post-lunch, it took me five minutes to resolve all of them. Is this proof that my intelligence increases exponentially when you feed me, or just another example of why I shouldn't attempt problem-solving while suffering from low blood sugar?

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm a fan of crepe myrtles, myself -- some types have pink blossoms.

Though I'm not sure how far north they can thrive.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hmmm.

I'm still pre-lunch, so I can't help you.
