New info about Uranus

OK. I love reading all the new science things happening & so my Google main page contains Discovery News, NASA Image of the Day, & my screen saver (when it's running) is an RSS feed about tech/science.

So, I ran across this one story & had to share because it's a rare-ish (once every 42 years) occurrence for anyone to see the Moons of Uranus passing - "Uranus moons seen overtaking each other for first time."

Or, should it be like going down the road & the car next to you passes with butts pressed to the window? - "Uranus moons seen overtaking each other for first time"

God, I love infantile potty humor.

For the real info - which really is interesting - Uranus moons seen overtaking each other for first time

No one claimed I ever act my age :P

What a liar...

One more item from a t-shirt. Totally appropriate, no?! :D


I need this shirt

Double Entendre: 'düb-&l-än-'tänd(-r&); 'd&-b&l-än-'tänd(-r&)

Now, not to stay on this clothing thing too long lest I have to start contributing to Angela's "hemline" blog, but we just received the giant bag o' clothes we just ordered & as I was pulling them all out to wash, I came across a set of Sophie's new pajamas. This brings me back to the title of this little thought...

double entendre: a word or expression capable of two interpretations with one usually risqué

Now, is it just me? I can't be the only one that is finding "variations" for this.

What? Cat, kitty, feline, mouser, kit, kitten, tabby, tomcat. Why? what are you coming up with?

Bunch of naughty-minded people. For shaaame.

Learning to speak/understand. A Sophism

So, last night was bath night. The whole gang, Miles, Dane, & Sophie, all got in the tub post-massacre of their dinners. Towards the end, my back was turned, but I heard the unmistakable sound of bubbles being blown from between clenched cheeks. I whipped around to see who the guilty culprit was, but the moment had "blown" past too quickly.

Thinking it was Miles, as he has been forcing the point lately for his & others' entertainment, I asked laughingly aloud "Who's blowing bubbles in the tub?!"

Now, a quick aside to educate everyone on why what happened, happened... We have been practicing asking things like, "Who wants dinner?" or "Who wants to brush their teeth?" to help get Dane & Sophie into the action & become aware of questions. We usually get enthusiastic "Me!"s or "Yea!"s. This is a good & entertaining response for us, generally.

So, after my asking who was bubbling in the tub, both of Sophie's hands shoot up into the air with a loud & proud, "ME!"

Now, I know it was Miles, & he confirmed that, but you have to love her little spirit! :)

A belated "Happy" Holidays!!!

Sorry for the delay, but these holidays have not turned out quite the way we expected (too long of a story to drag on here).

As you can see though, Angela spent some quality time making cookies with Miles, & made a special one for me.



Thanks for keeping things proportionate, Honey! :)

Happy New Year!

Archaeology: Sophie's Dig for the Truth (or "Looking for love in all the wrong places."

Lately, Sophie's been showing a deep interest in researching the rare, "yellow Brontosaurus." She first caught wind of it one day speaking with Dane. Dane has hesitantly agreed to assist her with her quest.

One evening while bathing after a hard day of searching, Dane found what appeared to be the "yellow Brontosaurus." He took it to Sophie for her to examine & determine if it truly was what she was looking for.

Seen below, Sophie, sits among some of her other finds while checking the "specimen" for authenticity. Sophie is very hands-on in her research & likes to perform all "studies" by her own hand to ensure the most trustworthy results.



Seen here, Sophie gives a very upclose examination to the "foot" of the Brontosaurus.


Since these photos were taken, there has been a falling-out between the two, & Dane has taken his yellow Brontosaurus & has gone his own way, preferring to do his own research on it. Sophie still tries to get a bit of time in with it while Dane has it in the tub for cleaning, but Dane is very close-fisted with his find.
