Well, I must be living in odd areas of the country then. I lived in Michigan and we had a nunnery/convent/mother house (I'm not sure what you call it) down the road. There was also a Catholic high school, college, hospital, hospice, retirement home for nuns, etc. The nuns wear habits and it's not unusual to see them driving a pack of other nuns over to the grocery store or to the movies.

Then I moved down south to Louisiana (grr) and we have nuns in habits in my town, too. hmmm Curious...

Good idea.

I would make the metal center a bit wider, though. Think of the foods you could safely store there while you are waiting for the burgers and hot dogs to finish burning on the grill?

No more dangerous potato salad or devilled eggs maybe gone just a bit off. Great idea, though. I think it would discourage ants, too.

Think that will be a summer project for me this year. Maybe add a shaded lid, too.

$74.95?!? I don't think so...

My son (nearly ten pounds at birth, was a forceps delivery. After his birth I knew there was something wrong with his neck. My dr said he had a "wry neck" meaning the neck muscles were torn but that I should see some specialists at the hospital. I did and they said my son had a branchial cleft cyst - which means the gill slits a fetus has had closed improperly. It's usually fatal. We mourned the imminent death of our son for 3 months before we could see the uber specialist who said he had a wry neck. I wanted to shoot these "specialists."

Try using a melon scoop instead of a knife. No cuts or slips of the knife plus you'll get a nice sized cup-shaped hole in the berry.

From a city with the word "dong" in it. Yep, makes sense.

Best science fair project, ever!

I didn't even get to choose my science project. I got lima beans. LIMA BEANS??? What a freakin waste of my time.

Dick Cheney's original heart. That explains soooo much.

It's a steampunk ear piercer. Stick it into your earlobe and keep pushing until you get the right sized hole for your new earrings.

It's a pendulum used for divination. I've seen people use them to get 'answers' - Yes, No, Unknown.

Depending on the rotation/movement - clockwise/counter clockwise/still, etc. you 'mentally' program it for your answers. If you want clockwise spin to mean "yes" then it is. You want it to mean "no" then it's no. Psychics use these quite often although I am a skeptic over the results since people tend to move their hands to make the pendulum move toward the answer they want.

I'll bet it was Santorum.

This is an old PVP meter aka Projectile Vomit Pitch meter. They had these in bars for centuries. Depending on how drunk the person was one could look at how far to the right or to the left the drunk was leaning and by using the gauge the bartender knew which direction, the strength and the velocity of the vomit the drunk was about to 'pitch'. It saved many patrons from messy clean ups, I can assure you.

I go to Universal because I can't stand that 'song'. Universal has better stuff, anyway.

No apology? No thank you? No problem. Acts of kindness are not done because the person expects a "thank you", a pat on the back, a reward or any other sort of recognition. Acts of kindness are done because the person is reaffirming the goodness of her/himself and doing what any humane person would do. **Someone needs help - can I help - yes, okay, I will.**
The lady did the right thing to help the woman and her child. She will be 'rewarded' somehow, someway, someday. Karma is like that. You never know when you (or someone you love) will need some help and then - tada! - here it is!
Thank you, Ms Dominy, for being such a special, caring person.
