We are back from vacationing in Tampa, Florida, and sadly, not once (not once!) did we eat roasted alligator.

Oh well, there's always next time. At least we had tasty barbeque and yummy yummy key lime pie (as well as an orange blossom pie that was sooooo goooood).

In other random thoughts of the day ...

The latest South Park episode, where Cartman's mom calls on Dog Whisperer Cesar Millan (watch him use fried chicken to show who's pack leader) is an absolute must-see. It just might make up for that truly awful Oprah episode.


Regarding the latest trend in European spas to soak in barrel of warm lager ... I say, why? Some things are happier inside the belly than outside.

And yay for the Germans! They're using honeybees to test airport air quality. The airports use the honey as gifts on special occasions. Sweet.
