I thought you guys might need a laugh so here goes. Kim got this new great humidifier a while back, like my mom's, 'cuz it works so good. It was on the counter running and I needed to refill it. I left it on and started the kitchen faucet to fill the tank. While it was sitting there running without the tank on it, I couldn't help but to watch the way the vapor came off the area where the water bubbled up. It looked somewhat like the water was getting heated, but I new that couldn't be because mom wouldn't get that kind. Maybe the water was getting pumped to help make it bubble, not real likely either. There was another thought but................... My brain was processing all the info too slowly to come to any quick definitive answers so I went right on to experimenting and stuck my finger right down the middle of that neat little bubbling fountain. Long story short it felt like my finger nail was ripped off and some one was shoving needles into it and performing electric shock therapy all at the same time. Maybe a little feeling like boiling acid too. My brain kicked right back into gear at this point and told me, "hey that hurts, get your finger out of there." and I had readily affirmed at this point that ya my last thought was right...there was an ultrasonic frequency causing all this fun little action. I have been around an ultrasonic cleaner before but it was more of a tingle. This was downright painful. Maybe I shouldn't post this and see if I can get anyone else to try. Maybe If I ever have a problem with stray cats again I will let them have a drink. The crazy thing is Abby and Whitney and whoever have taken the tank off and messed around in the water, but they must have avoided that cute little fountain of pain. Any other Darwin awards?

Okay, Well…that was an interesting trial run. A little disappointed I couldn’t top my Kimi’s record number of comments. Not bad for a male rookie on his first attempt though. I was impressed however with the comments that were made. It was really fun to hear what people thought. Kimi and I still don’t know what were going to do about having another baby, but I think we are getting closer. She doesn’t want one for a couple years, if we do have one. I want one now, if we are going to have one. So that kinda settles it for me. I don’t even know if Kim knows the above, but I guess she will soon.

My word document froze as I was typing this luckily it was saved and I only lost a little. Is that a bad sign?

I don’t know how Kimi has time to make so many posts. I hardly have time to read them, but if I want to know anything about her or what is going on in her life I pretty much have to. I think I will try to make a post about once to her five. That may still be a lofty goal though.

Here is a sampling of what I would call true art. Take time to read and learn a little about these, it will make you a more rounded person. (there she goes she is complaining about what I am blogging about already, "Don't, She says, "it makes me sound like a big Jerk...Stop! Maybe she will learn not to mess with me.) I was actually lucky enough to own both of these items at one time. These are the photos that I used when I ebayed them. These parts were made in the early 90's by a guy named Paul. He manufactured these by himself in a small shop in the USA. He was able to make a living against the corporate giant Shimano. For you fisherman out there it is the same company. He in no way hurt Shimano's business but just to survive against them was amazing. The parts are machined from solid blocks of aluminum. They are incredibly well built with amazing attention to detail. You would not believe how good these parts feel and how smooth they function. I used to dream of owning these exact two parts, the Paul derailleur and "Love levers" as they were called. I was lucky to have owned them. I sold them because the technology of these are out of date and I hope whoever bought them actually put them to use. Paul components is still in business making great parts. I am curious and would like all who read this to tell respond and tell me how much money total, they think I received from ebaying these parts.
Try using your mouse left handed, it is crazy hard.

All right. This is going to be my first real post. My wife's record is about 12 comments on a post. She says, "I am not doing it for that anymore." Well I am. Why else would I waste my time posting it.....for the world to see of course. So lets see if I can beat her twelve posts on my first try. Come on, Help a guy out here. The best part is, I am using her blog as the only way to get exposure to mine, which would make the victory even more sweet. (now Kim is trying to tell me the proper grammar is "even sweeter" not the way I put it. Oh well, I don't care, it's my blog! She says it sounds like I am from Fintuckey. Well she's the one from there not me. Sounds like a duplex to me, I mean complex.
So the purpose of this post is to have a little fun as Kim and I struggle over whether or not to have another little baby. Although we definitely know that we don't want a huge baby, were not sure on the little one. I put together a quick survey, but I think the comments would be more fun to read. So I hope you take part in this survey and don't forget to leave a little comment and have your friends do the same so I can have a little victory here, and eat a huge bowl of ice cream in front of Kimi. She just say, "I didn't want any anyway." (there she goes making fun of my typing again)

Thanks everyone till next time.
