    Tenny tiny cakes

    The schools here have never done anything like that, but they do sell candy for the band and a group sells magazines for one of the sport teams. Thankfully, they only do both about once a year.

    The Pope is retiring?

    I was wondering what you thought of the new pope. I happened to catch it on the radio right when they announced who it was going to be. It sounds like he might bring about a lot of changes.

    Music To Relax To?

    I like to listen to smooth jazz when I want to relax. My wife likes to listen to new age music and classical when she wants to relax. If I really want to relax and be lazy at the same time, however, I will usually just veg out and watch some television.

    Saw OZ this past weekend.

    My wife and daughter want to see it. I am not sure if I will go to it or not, but I have heard that it is quite good.

    Wife is overwhelmed

    I have found from experience that it is usually better to just give her some space. We went out to lunch and I did the grocery shopping. She is still somewhat frazzled, but she is finally getting the work caught up.

    Making a terrarium

    Can you glue it to a board so that it doesn't roll? I remember doing one of those when I was a kid. It was really interesting and actually lasted a lot longer than I thought it would.

    Wife is overwhelmed

    My wife got a new client this week and then got behind on her work for another client. She is now feeling overwhelmed. I'm thinking of taking the kids out for lunch so she can have some peace and quiet for a while. What do you do when your spouse is overwhelmed?

    What's for dinner?

    My daughter is staying with a friend tonight, so we are having Chinese food for dinner. She doesn't like it, but my son does. We are going to order takeout and then pick up a movie from Redbox.

    Criminal Minds

    We don't watch it the way that we use to. I think we kind of lost interest when the woman agent was suppose to be dead and she wasn't. Now, we only watch it if there isn't anything any better on.

    Fish dying

    What type of tank is it? Does it have a filter system? Is the water cloudy? There are so many things that could be going on. The first thing I would suggest would be to have the pet store test your water for you.

    Would you buy a snake for a pet?

    Well, we bought a book on snakes this weekend and I researched them a bit on the Internet. It appears that a king snake should be a good "starter" snake as long as it is picked up and handled on a regular basis.

    Museum Membership

    We don't have any museums very close to us, so we haven't gotten any memberships, but we do try to go to different ones around the area. The last one we went to was the Telus museum, which was very nice.

    Would you buy a snake for a pet?

    My son is fascinated with snakes. He wants to use the money he has saved up to buy a small king snake. My wife is okay with it as long as she doesn't have to take care of it. Would you buy a snake for your son?

    Being Human

    Is anyone watching "Being Human" on the SyFY channel? My wife started watching it and now I'm hooked too. We also started out watching the BBC version, but lost interest in it.

    Robert Knepper

    I have one or two episodes of Cult taped on the DVR to watch, but I haven't heard anything about it. We have been watching "The Following," because my wife loves Kevin Bacon.
