As long as we fool ourselves into thinking something, we humans seem to be satisfied. I love it Doug, at least you are having some fun during your wait.

Hey, does Dr. Phil live in the area of the red-sided garter? I was watching National Geographic this past weekend and they had them on the show but I didn't catch the area they were in. They actually said this snake can be frozen for short periods of time and this is why they live in the area. Anyway they showed them coming out when it got warm and they were breeding, there were thousands of them alongside this ledge. The females had hundreds of males all over them. It was pretty cool.

:Dr Phil is going to be sending me a trio of Yellow Tails soon. As you may know, he lives just north of the north pole and it's a little chilly there until about July 25th. Then it warms up for a few days...then freezes again on August 1st. During those few days when it soars into the upper 40's (Farenheit). Well the polar bears and Yeti's hibernate that week in Late July and it's safe for the good doctor to make a mad dash to the airport and ship the little ones off to me without the threat of becoming prey to those northern predators.

:I've developed a strategy to cope with the wait...here it is.
