<---warns you not to read further if you don't care for bathroom humor

I just set a test that requires poop. One specimen was submitted on the end of a corn cob holder. You know, the thingies that are shaped like a little ear of corn with 2 sharp prongs on the end. One tech looked at it and said," Good thing she used the corn end." Then we had some hilarious discussion about corn cobs and outhouses. Hmmmm, doesn't seem as funny now. Guess you had to be a microbiologist and be there....

<---tells Carole that yes, her and DH have Bp's (Ball Pythons) that they raise
<---says if she is brave, she can click on <---'s picture trail and see some of the babies they hatched out last year
<---adds that people pay good money for her babies ;)
<---says BP's are VERY docile and do not get very big compared to other types of pythons
<---tells Lorie that DH explained the soda thing further to her:
He said that all soda "used to be" made with real cane sugar before the high fructose corn syrup days. Now, there is only one Dr. Pepper plant in the entire country that produces Dr. Pepper and other Coke products using pure cane sugar instead of High Fructose Corn syrup. That is where he went. He brought home 7 up, Dr. Pepper, Coke, etc... It actually tastes pretty good. You do not get that funky sweet aftertaste like you do with the regular Coke. I thought he was going for Pop Shop stuff, but that will be another trip I suppose. ;)
<---wishes she could go on an Atlanta get together!
<---has been wanting to go to the Aquarium for a while
<---hopes you ladies are all having a lovely weekend so far ;)
 
<--- thinks Liann's DH should just come to Canada because none of our soda is made with HFCS
<--- has actually been hard-pressed to find ANYTHING here made with HFCS
<--- had an okay day but is in a very bleak place right now and isn't sure how to get over it

<--hopes Catherine feels better soon
<--hands her a heated up rice pack and fresh cup of coffee
<--hopes Carole's run isn't too cold
