what if her filling pops out domestically?


Here is a funny post to read if you want a summary of what a high school girl learned on a trip to Japan. It is really good. I love travel writing.

Can a person tell if you link to them? Is there some way they know it? I wonder why she is a squid? She needs to WRITE MORE on her blog. Why doesn't somebody more her age go over there and pester her about it?

Here is some other stuff about squid that I found while looking for a picture of squid.

After we finish building trails we will invent the steam boat

Why are there convenient freeway loops around some cities (Houston, San Antonio, Chicago) but not around every city around which a moe would like to drive? You, in the back, talking in a funny midwestern accent: yes? Yes: flat terrain versus mountains, and the ease of building roads on flat terrain compared to the engineering and money required in wildly uneven land.

Why are there so few sidewalks on my side of my town, which is the side full of muddy ravines and creeks and hillsides covered with blackberry vines, rotten logs, hobo underwear, and ivy? Same reason, more or less. On my side of town a group of volunteers builds trails that sort of connect walking routes through the difficult spots which would otherwise stop you , or your reluctant teenager, from walking. They also pester the city for sidewalks and bikelanes. I finally attended one of their meetings Friday & went out and helped them work today. It was all older men in dark colored gortex, and me. It rained. We spread gravel on 2 stretches of trail and made friends with a lady in whose back yard easement we are going to make creasote steps down to a trail. Next time I will wear my orange fleece jacket, and then onlookers will think it is an inmate work crew, and I am a highly dangerous prisoner who requires 6 vigorous male guards at all times.
