Anyone know if there's a scientific name for something that walks sideways like a crab?  I know there are words like 'crabwise' and such, but I'm fairly certain there's a scientific name for it too.   I can't find it online though.

Looks like the USOC is in a bit of hot water for having the 2012 USA team uniforms made in China.  :spooked:

Well all of the lawmakers in Washington are fired up about it, but since the USOC is privately funded, there isn't much they're going to be able to do about it.

And they should be in trouble.

Even while you defend the corporate interests responsible and advocate them and their executives paying lower taxes.  Get a clue.  :rolleyes:

What is interesting is a fragrance that I keep getting a "whiff" of, is like a perfume my Mom used to wear...I have had this happen before, but today....there has been many things that continue to touch me, and keep my mind on her.

and it just makes me miss her more than ever.

thanks for the kind words Sunny.  :)

If I smell Ivory soap, Johnson's baby shampoo or Chantilly Lace I think of my mon. :yes:

Yes, there were certainly corporate interests that caused that.  :yes:  All it takes is a bit of reading on the subject.

Ever have one of those days when you wanted to rip the phone out and throw it in the yard?  I'm glad these people, friends and relatives, call but why one after the other all on the same day and want to talk forever.  Wouldn't be so bad but I don't like to talk on the phone any more than I like going shopping.

Yep. Sorta. Our phone never rings at home, but I often feel this way at work.

Speaking of work...this week sucked. :( Had to fire an employee this week & now I can't help but worry he's gonna go postal.

Good news? I took a vacation day today.

Bad news? The neighbors are drilling a new water well. Day 3 of the process -- they're at 80 feet.  Not sure how many more days I can handle the noise.

Whenever someone says, "I'm not book smart but I'm street smart," all I hear is, "I'm not real smart but I'm imaginary smart."

  When I think of mom, is when I smell good food cooking,  Bleach and soap when she was washing, Life Boy soap.

  But thinking about smells bring a joke into my mind.

  A woman walks into a meat market and walks up to the meat case.  The butcher ask may I help you.  The woman said, I want to look at that chicken you have in there, I want to see how the chicken she smells.  The butcher hands her the chicken.  She take it up and she smells it's neck.  Then she smells under it's wings.  Then she spreads the chicken's legs apart and smells in there.  She hands the chicken back to the butcher and said.  "the chicken, she don't smell so good.

  The butchers says.  "Lady, like you could pass that test."   :wink: :smile:

  The Old Troll got a Trojan in his computer.  Went out and bought a new one.  Going to get the old one fixed up to factory standard.  Best Buy gave me a deal I couldn't pass up.  :biggrin:
