Then somebody pointed out quite rightly that the female sex organ isn't exactly aerodynamic.<BR/><BR/>By the same token, I figured that the female sex organ doesn't exactly make for practical architecture.<BR/><BR/>But then I remembered Gothic arches...<BR/><BR/>One of the better shoe stores in our area currently has Timberland boots for 40% off.

I think the light will begin to last longer and longer a January progresses.<BR/><BR/>**************************<BR/><BR/>BH - At least I can say I've been there and seen it. When I was here last year, it was shrouded behind scaffolding, so I was disappointed.<BR/><BR/>*************************<BR/><BR/>Carol - it's true, that's what I was thinking when I saw the frieze at Rockefeller Center. I've been there at least 5 times now, and still saw something for the first time.<BR/><BR/>************************<BR/><BR/>Matt - nope, go to Houston, as that is where you will find House of Pies!<BR/><BR/>************************<BR/><BR/>Mich - indeed, I don't need one for a long time now.<BR/><BR/>***********************<BR/><BR/>Miss Fluff - they are actually new Timberlands (thankfully don't look it, but are part of the Earth Friendly line). I am sure they will last me many years.<BR/><BR/>On Facebook I mentioned in my caption that it was phallic and that it was an upshot, and the use of both words grossed Chris out!<BR/><BR/>The hot dog was not easy to hold, it was falling apart and it was burning my fingers. What you don't see is the delicious juniper berry infused sauerkraut and dijon mustard on my plate, which went really well with the dog.<BR/><BR/>It was tasty, and still more than I cared to eat.Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04014351759393921274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11083160.post-18489967696782828552009-01-04T15:04:00.000-05:002009-01-04T15:04:00.000-05:00Hoorah for vintage boots!

I had been thinking the same thing, since every skyscraper, always seems to "peek", at the sky. <BR/><BR/>Congrats on eating, even 15 bites of that hotdog. I doubt, if I could even hold something like that, let alone eat half of it! But, it looks tasty. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11083160.post-64762902788577313572009-01-04T14:11:00.000-05:002009-01-04T14:11:00.000-05:00Now thats a hot dogNow thats a hot dogmeimeihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04597786376979356217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11083160.post-45089377208408606252009-01-04T13:37:00.000-05:002009-01-04T13:37:00.000-05:00There's a House of Pies?!

Your photo just at 5:30 looks shivery -- it's dark here by that time, too. Too dark by a little after 5 to see well enough to prune!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
