If a cat always lands on its feet, and toast always lands butter side down, what happens if you tape a piece of toast, butterside up, on a cat's back and drop it??? :? :?:

Why? Because they live in a metropolitan dearth with no chance for escape?

Because they live in the city that never sleeps, which means they get no rest, leading to depression?

The frames of my glasses developed a crack about a month ago, and I went for new ones on 5/5/12. They said if my frames broke, they could probably solder them back together. I hope they can.

My new glasses were to take about 2 weeks to arrive, from 5/5/12.

I soldered my frames back together. Hopefully they'll hold for a few days until I get my new glasses.
At least I can read what I type again, as my old glasses don't allow me to see small type clearly.

I know they're not perfect, but they'll do for now. :)

Facebook goes PUBLIC Tomorrow.

Mr. Z will likely be worth MORE than $40,000,000,000.00 by the time the sun sets tomorrow.

I wonder what kind of modal train layout you could build with that :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Well, I was still running of my rush from seeing Q334 flying around a corner at 60 and hroning for the crossing I was 15 ft from...only 110 MPH amtrak at that distance would be better :wink:
