    This may be a repeat, but if I'm ever crabby this will make me laugh. Repeatedly:

    Dang. My average time was 0.2616 seconds on my first try. It suggested I get a cup of coffee....

    How does it know me so well?

    Am I the only Chicago gal who likes it this temperature? I can do without the billowing dark grey clouds, but 54F is boots-and-turtleneck weather! Yum!

    Fortunately, Lynne, there's lots more chilly and bleak where this came from!

    beta, glad to hear Sloane was such a treat. If you ever want another way to check how much you usually coast, ride with LynneK. NO COASTING!

    That's wild that the one bird would tell the other to "shut up"! How would he know how to use that phrase correctly?

    I went in for 4 hr of overtime and was scheduled with *ONE* patient. So I sat there until 4 PM, because goll-darn it, they wanted me there, they can pay for me to be there! Good grief. So wierd. Dumb scheduling decisions.

    Fish, glad to hear the house/move things are going so well. I'm thinking of you all with Roux.

    0.2494 seconds on the 2nd try (penalized on the first try for jumping the gun. I could tell that sheep was thinking about bolting). It suggested that I, too, needed a cup of coffee, but also rated me "Bobbing Bobcat", so, hey, that's not so bad!

    I was a bit twitchy with the sheep my first two tries and was penalized. Third try - 0.2392 - need coffee (or lemondrop).

    Must try again...

    Beta - great video - it's a good guess at what he's saying. A nonsense song making tons of $$$. Imagine that.

    Salsa - about the bee population decreasing... they are getting hammered by mites (varroa). The lab that I'm going to is breeding a strain of bees that has high levels of resistance to that mite. I'm going to be looking for genes associated with varroa resistance to speed up the selective breeding process.

    This is cycling related...

    I had to make Fudge Stripe Cookie Salad for the Century Volunteer Party last Saturday. So I had some leftover Fudge Striped Cookies.

    New perfect food combination: Fudge striped cookies and Shiraz.

    Fudge Stripe Cookie Salad

    Large Cool Whip
    1 small pack instant vanilla pudding
    1 cup buttermilk
    2 cans mandarin oranges
    2 rows fudge stripe cookies, broken

    People in Florida want to know why it is called salad, if it doesn't have greens.

    Up North, if it has Jello, or Jello Pudding, with stuff mixed in, it is a "salad."

    If it has meat and any other ingredient, it is a "hot dish."
