On a recent hike, there was a sign that said our campsite was 1/4 mile away. I had noticed just a day before that the kids today read that differently than I do, so I did a little experiment and asked everyone going by what the sign said.
All the dads told me the campsite was a quarter mile away. All the boys told me it was one fourth of a mile away. I thought that was interesting, and I still do. |

You know, I reckon two blokes so car-dependent and lazy as to treat the border fence as a drive-through ... are practically Americans already. let 'em in!

Yup Ali got caught in the net I set up to catch Chinese spammers. I took the entire net down to let her back in - because we don't need it now due to Akismet, and the special registration question about the tallest mountain in the world.
