Some housekeeping.

Well, since everyone else has posted recently, I guess I should contribute to the fray. Just to answer a few questions from previous posts: Maggie, in order to adopt your own bobblehead, just do as Madonna did and take one that looks good to you. As for a college fund, everyone will be applying for the Bobblehead Scholarship. The BS (as Cody can tell you, that's how it's referred to in academic fields) is fairly easy to obtain and should take care of things nicely. Finally, one of Fat Albert's parents did enjoy watching Chico Escuela on SNL (still one of my all-time favorite sketches).
A little update on the animal situation in our house. In addition to an idiot cat, we now have a guinea pig named Biscuit. Biscuit is Jenny's classroom pet and is home with us for the summer. Biscuit brought several toys with her, including her rolling exercise ball. Fat Albert, being a bully, had to establish himself right away as top dog.

Last but not least, I would urge everyone out there that enjoys beer (which better be all of you) to check out a movie called American Beer. It's a documentary by 4 guys from Brooklyn who go to 38 breweries in 40 days. They travel across the county to several good breweries (Boston Beer Works, Red Hook in Washington, New Belguim just to name a few) and speak with the founders of the various breweries. It's a very entertaining and informative movie and kudos to Jenny for finding it.

Have a good week everyone and don't forget to boycott gas stations tomorrow!

I would like to know how boycotting gas stations for a whole day is going to help. All it will do is force people to buy gas either the day before or the day after, thus increasing the demand on those days.

From what I heard on the radio, the last time there was a boycott like this, oil companies lost $3 billion and gas went down 30 cents in a week. Not sure if it's true.
