Nope. Apparently I'm freakishly flexible or something, because there's no part of my back I can't reach to scratch. :)

Direct TV is having problems, and the only channel that's not working is the one showing the opening day game (Red Sox/A's) in Tokyo. They don't know it yet, but they will be giving me some sort of compensation for this.

Ditto - I have no problems, of course I do get some curious looks though.

Having the removable spine option does not hurt either, just saying.

Just a province border, an international border crossing, and a state...and you're there!

I think we are thinking alike. We should both be very scared about that, I think. What do you think?

I haven't been to Dallas in a long time... as I recall, it was snowing.

Yeah, we are known world wide for our great winter sports atmosphere. Let me know when you plan to come again, and I will get you a great deal on a lift ticket.

It snowed here yesterday for about five minutes :D . The only time I've been to Texas was flying in to DFW, where I got to see a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher!

The scissor tailed catcher is the state bird of Oklahoma. You must have been looking north.

Perhaps, but we were definitely at DFW :) .

Beautiful birds, even if they were mistakenly in Texas.

Yep, cannot tell you how many hours I spent as a kid watching scissor tails dart off phone lines and perform acrobatics in pursuit of some flying insect. Mesmerizing.

So, is a scissor tail anything like a chimney sweep?

Not sure. They are a very long tailed bird that can do amazing things in the air.

They call it a "Chimney Swift". Amazing acrobatic creatures. They are most active in the evening just before sunset. You can throw a rock up in the air, and when the sense it, they will follow it down to the ground, peeling off just before hitting the ground.

When I have an itch I can't scratch, I just back up to an outward-facing corner in a wall and pretend I'm a bear. What's really bad is not being able to sneeze when you need to!
