I spent the weekend with some friends who have a 1 1/2-year-old. Most people teach their kids that age what the elbow, nose, foot, and a button are, as in "Where's your nose?" Nah, my friends say to their daughter, "Where's your uvula?" Before all of you instantly profess to me that you're intimately familiar with all parts of the anatomy, I want you to know that I can already hear the clkicking of your keyboards as you rush to your online dictionary to figure out what the heck a uvula is. --Mike Buckley P. S. I wrote this post to ensure that Stan would have at least one post this month with content he would understand.

Mike <<hang around here awhile I'll teach you something if the vacuum of nothingness doesn't suck away your brain power.>> Thought mudges abhored everything, wittily. Even vacuums. I don't do vacuums of any kind, even those of nothingness. Certainly wouldn't let them mess around with the few brain cells left. My hearing, however, is intact. Sure that's just a bunch of leftover pesos--or whatever they use in the land of the piranha--burning--a hole in that pocket?
