    My Austrailian Shepherd never got the memo on domestication. My home office is his favorite place to go.

    That's kind of funny... almost as funny as the name of one of the bank managers at my bank. Her REAL first name is Princess. I swear.

    I beg to differ with number two. I can count hair all day long, I may lose count, I may count one strand more than once, I may never finish, but I can too count my hair.

    Hey, man speak for yourself. I want to live to be 110, in good health. I have a friend whose grandmother just turned 104, and she's awesome. :)

    Your lips don't touch when you say "touch" but they do when you say "apart"

    Did you know that you actually don't 'touch' anything, since on an atomic
    level there is a gap between you and everything else. Pretty neat huh?

    I think atoms get too much credit.

    Everyones all 'everything is made of atoms' but when you get down to it, most of an atom is empty space.

    Nothing makes up most of everything.

    That's usually a toss up between your parents not really loving you as a child (and you subconsciously picked up on that) or a salt deficiency. Could easily go either way.
