I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I like the orange Tic-tacs best, personally.

Mini-cactus?

The dollar section at Target had little mini cactus things recently. At least the ones around here did.

Snakes in a wine!

this Vietnamesse product contains rice wine, ginseng root, seed pods (ummm, which seeds exacatly?), red pepper ellets (for medicinal purposes) and a real green tree snake. In fact there are two snakes "artisically arranged" to show a cora with fully displayed hood snaking on the green tree snake. Delightful.

The snakes are left to ferment in the wine for "some weeks". It is no doubt this period when the "mystical sexual stimulative properties" are created. Of course this statement would make this product immediatly illegal in most Western countries. The product is also "believed to boost longevity, have high therapeutic properties, rheumatism, lumbago, back and muscle pain". Cost is 30 euros plus 15 euros shipping.

OK, that has me gagging.

And yet a worm in the tequila doesn't.

Oh, that reminds me: if you have any slimey gross out issues at all (CSI has made you gag? ) should you start to see the trailer for How to Eat Fried Worms, IMMEDIATELY close your eyes and plug your ears for the duration. I was caught off guard when I went to see Over the Hedge and I avoided hurling but just barely. Very very barely.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

they have no idea if his first word was Spanish or English.

My nephew is spoken to in bothjapanese and english- and his babblings were a a wierd mix of english and japanese syllables. he speaks a bit of both now. he ( at not yet two) is also very clever. he knows how the speed dial works and has taken to randomly calling DH's cell phone and yelling 'Unca Matt' into the phone.

and if you are going into the dessert you should have a parasol. but they may eat up most of the budget

My cousin's kid had two language babble. He'd only use the japanese babble with his paternal grandparents and his dad. With his mom(who did speak japanese to him as well)& her family he'd use an english babble. And they really did sound different. It was neat.
