Sounds like a great idea to me, Kay. Lets do it! Turkey soup sounds good, and it is cold outside. Bet Mario could go for some of that too.

Turkey soup or potpie, ham & bean soup!! Oh YUMMY! I just love leftovers and loooove soup. Hmmm Dirty Girl Scout or HBR? Decisions decisions Someone else will have to bring in the logs for the fire. I tried on Sunday afternoon then tripped over poor Badger with an armfull of logs and busted myself up big time - stitches, bruises, scrapes ~ YOWCH! I'll stick to bringing in "Squaw Wood" if you don't mind I really dislike shopping at regular stores and abhor malls. I do like museum gift shops and working so close to the Mall in D.C. (this is NOT a shopping Mall, it's in the midst of most of the museums) I have lots of choices. Flower shops are good for fun things too. Food is always good. Another business trip for me next week. American Geophysical Union (AGU) is meeting in San Francisco! California here I come

Allow me to bring in the wood for the fire, Laurie. I'll try not not to make too roaring for Lady. Besides it'll give me an appetite for those leftovers! Well' I'm off to drive my car around.

Ok yesterday Richard was asking about jokes and I thought since I have never posted one I'd keep an eye out for any. Well lo and behold I have one . Anyway, keep in mind this told to me by a guy .

A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him.


The waitress asks for their orders. The man says, "A hamburger, fries
and a coke," and turns to the ostrich, "What's yours?" "I'll have the
same," says the ostrich.


A short time later the waitress returns with the order. "That will be
$9.40 please," and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the
exact change for payment.


The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man says, "A
hamburger, fries, and a coke." The ostrich says, "I'll have the same."
Again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change.


This becomes routine until, the two enter again.


"The usual?" asks the waitress.


"No, this is Friday night, so I will have a steak, baked potato, and
salad," says the man. "The same," says the ostrich.


Shortly the waitress brings the order and says, "That will be $32.62."
Once again the man pulls the exact change out of his pocket and places
it on the table.


The waitress can't hold back her curiosity any longer. "Excuse me, sir.
How do you manage to always come up with the exact change out of your
pocket every time?"


"Well," says the man, "several years ago I was cleaning the attic and
found an old lamp. When I rubbed it a Genie appeared and offered me two
wishes. My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything, I
would just put my hand in my pocket and the right amount of money would
always be there."


"That's brilliant!" says the waitress. "Most people would wish for a
million dollars or something, but you'll always be as rich as you want
for as long as you live!"


"That's right. Whether it's a gallon of milk or a Rolls Royce, the
exact money is always there," says the man.


The waitress asks, "But, sir, what's with the ostrich?"


The man sighs, pauses, and answers, "My second wish was for a tall chick
with long legs who agrees with everything I say."
