Shetland Ponies in Fair-Isle Sweaters

I saw those last night, and Tim's comment was "Who has to put the sweaters on them? I bet THAT'S fun."

I don't care, because they are unbearably cute.

Hey, there's a video and they were very easy to dress. I'm more astonished by the fact that the sweaters were handknit.

In the video, it looked like they were sewing the sweaters to their manes at some point.

(Also, Holly is still an Eskimo and Dana looks like Elijah Wood, and Knut is difficult.)

Don't forget that Jesse is a cowgirl.

So there's a new thing, where you describe what you do using only the one thousand most common English words.

I did this. I hope that works...

Nope, it doesn't work. Needs a shorter URL.

I was walking through Grand Central Terminal the other day, and they set up a squash court there for a tournament!

My job is not too hard to describe using very common words. It is also pretty easy for 5 year olds to understand.

"I work in a place where people go to find books to read and to spend time together and study. I help people decide which books they want to read, help them learn how to study things and find things out, and help buy the books we keep there."

This is my job " My job is to take care of all the things that the teachers are too busy for, like answering the phone, helping people pay, telling people about classes, and setting up for classes and talks. I also make sure people know when and where the classes and talks are held and how to sign up. I am nice to people and fix all sorts of problems. "

Nice, Consuela. They should give you your job just for being able to write that explanation. (I mean, really, they should give you your job because of how you've been doing it, but that apparently is not how it works)

They should give you your job just for being able to write that explanation.

Heh. I skipped the whole bit about endless negotiations with local agencies, and LBP remediation, because that's pretty hard to describe.
