Anne, do ya think you'd consider adopting me and Lukas the Cat too? I promise I won't grossly talk with my mouth full then laugh so hard that it snorts out of my nose embarrassing you (think Kelly & Jessie at Jerry's diner). If so, then HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM! ;)

I have no idea what you're talking about. O:-)

Is the Haka a one-sided affair or is the other team allowed to respond?
- Adam Kazwell
@Adam - the other team can respond. There is a great vid around somewhere of Western Samoa responding. Also look for one where England (I think?) turned their back on the Haka.
- Nick Lothian
@Adam & Nick, Tonga often responds with their own war dance, the Sipi Tau. This is a video of the two dances being performed back and forth: http://tinyurl.com/k6rlj England did respond to the Haka by turning their backs as their fans sang Swing Low', but doing so is considered highly disrespectful. Usually the opposing team just stands in a line, occasionally looking quite alarmed.

"Wally Wallington has demonstrated that he can lift a Stonehenge-sized pillar weighing 22,000 lbs and moved a barn over 300 ft. What makes this so special is that he does it using only himself, gravity, and his incredible ingenuity."

There are 10^11 stars in the galaxy. That used to be a huge number. But it's only a hundred billion. It's less than the national deficit! We used to call them astronomical numbers. Now we should call them economical numbers.

"a 2007 survey by Merritt, Hawkins indicated that 57% of 1,175 doctors questioned would not recommend the field to their children." Actually, I would still recommend medicine as a career for anyone interested . . . still, I'm proud our adult kids have discovered their own interesting opportunities. - http://Reasons Not To Become A Doctor - Forbes.com
a 2008 survey by Jessie, Norris indicated that 100% of eldest female children surveyed would not recommend the field to their fathers, particularly if their fathers had a thing for Mountain Dew. :-P

i can't find any mountain dew in this article!

"But studies show that, while optimism may feel better than pessimism, it rarely, if ever, affects outcome. And that's a good thing, not a bad one, because it takes away the guilt of feeling so responsible for everything -- the mistaken belief that we have more control over our fate than we actually do."

I think we should get this for Christmas.

Although I personally find Mountain Dew repulsive, I find the tree simply splendid, I'm guessing the wife would nix it in the living room though. :(

Jessie, I'm sorry to be the one to break it to you, but dad's entire inheritance will be some empty mountain dew cans. Not even enough to make this suit of armor.
- Kelly
Kelly, how dare you say that to my most beloved offspring! Your inheritance will be whatever Tiger left in the litterbox today. And whatever Cricket leaves on the front step tomorrow.
- Jack Norris
well, DAD, ill have you know Cricket already pledged herself to you're most beloved offspring, spending each day plotting how to ruin Jessie's life with her awful hairstyles. so I guess that's another inheritance she'll get. DAMN.
- Kelly
Are you making fun of Cricket's hair? I hope you enjoy sleeping in the cat room the next time you come home.
- Jack Norris
My bedroom has already become the new cat room.
