One time, TAPS, in Political Science class, I stood up and told everyone that I'd "run for Senate some day" ...

and everyone laughed. Including the teacher ... which I felt was rather unprofessional of him, actually.

Most of them do, bandana.

They are a regular daily part of a healthy tarantula, scorpion and praying mantis diet.

You are definitely a one-of-a-kind special being.  One way or another, I expect you will go far.  I wish I were young enough that I would still be around to watch what happens when you run for President.

Who (which one of your "children") eats those crickets?

I had been experimenting with using newspaper to line the bottoms of the cricket cages, seeing as they are so messy (particularly during the summer months).

Excellent resolutions. LOL

It was probably better (for your tests) that you didn't.
Btw, sorry to analyze your post like this, but why would you flush newspaper down the toilet?! Or was it some porno community newspaper? (You know I won't tell anyone.)

Why thank you, T.
Several times this past week, I really wanted to post ... but then didn't.

Also, I meant to say (after insulting you like that... sorry)
I'm really happy you are done with school. I miss reading you everyday.

No, I knew it wasn't real, bandana.

I just made it up to get out of going to school.

P.S. Shuuutt uuppp!

Who's Arthur Pilkington?

Oh, and I think you made an error... did you mean "A New Girl" instead?

Unfortunately no, Rcky ...

I have to wait until 2 to leave (with the rest of the "Memorial Day weekend caravan").
