    That plank coffee table is someone's joke.

    Yes, the coffee table's a joke. Or possibly art. Sometimes hard to differentiate those two (consider Andy Kaufman and Frank Zappa, e.g.). ;)

    We have a good friend whose sister was something of an arty type when she was young. She particularly seemed to enjoy really odd earrings which she often made herself. This was slightly before the rise in popularity of multiple piercings.

    One evening we (assisted by alcohol, I am sure) decided to craft a pair of artistic earrings for her. Mrs. H (she was still Miss P then -- or, more properly, Ms P) and I each ate a banana and set aside the peels. We waited until they were good and weathered, black and twisted B), coated them with clear lacquer, and Ms P fitted them with earring hardware. We boxed them up attractively and presented them to her with great glee.

    She hated them.

    The price is in Ringgit, so it must be a Malaysian joke.

    My neighbor fixed my PC by replacing Windows with a new Windows. It's working pretty good again.

    We've had some visitors hanging around CLOSE in 3 yards on my side. We think there are 3 of these Hawks.

    There was also a BIG white headed hawk sitting on our neighbors deck railing the other morning too. We haven't seen it again. It was squaking pretty loud and frequent before it took flight and dissapeared. I'll get my wife to email me her photo/s of that soon.

    Here's what we think is a different Hawk but has been hanging around for a few days also. I think they're trying to hunt our birds, squirrels and rabbits. There's been a few lizards around here too.

    That would definitely cause some backups. My question is....how in the heck did it get down in the drain pipe? That was definitely intentional.

    That's wild, I wonder if there was a clean out they could access?
