		<description>i think we are sadly out of touch with our animal natures and qualities.  we barely know who or what we are anymore.  our natural instincts and actions get warped into all sorts of peculiar behaviors.  i'm for letting our animal natures out more frequently and discovering the joys of the wild nature inside us all.</description>

		<description>What about traveling?  Would you like to travel again?  Where would you like to go again?  I love to travel and learn.  My husband and I backpacked across Europe this last year and we would love to backpack across Russia and China.  
I am also interested in your garden.  What are you growing this year?  I picked beautiful huge cantelopes this morning, peppers, tomatoes, cukes, and squash.  Do you grow your food?  
Just curious about your thoughts.........Nanajayhawk</description>

		<description>Wow, poker night sounds like such fun Leslie! By the way, I've got a joke for you all ...

A gambler walks into a butcher's shop and asks the butcher: "Do you ever gamble?" Although the butcher thought that the question was odd, he answered "Yes." 
Pleased with the butcher's response, the gambler said: "I bet you $50 that you can't reach up and touch that meat hanging on the hooks from the ceiling." 
The butcher said "No way!!" The gambler retorted, "But you said you were a gambler?!". "Well, yeah," said the butcher." But in this case, the steaks are too high." :-)</description>

		<description>Luke thats the best kind of coke a cola there is. Because it also comes in that bottle. I really dont know why they insisted in changing from bottles to cans as it ruined the taste. I grew up drinking in "USA" ice cold bottles of coke out of a machine. Everybody had empties that they collected or as a kid I collected to earn some money. That is also part of the famous song from Lynnard Skynnard's "Curtis Lowe". The planet needs to get green so they should bring back recycled bottles for sodas. I grew up with my grand father selling sodas out of bottle like this from his little candy store and soda fountain store. It was a big piece of my childhood and miss it. Great stuff and the soda that way was the best. It was here in the USA first but we just lost it. Other countries are still doing the bottles but now are starting to use cans.. Such a shame. 
By the way I got some photos for you Luke from Grass Valley get a hold of me at my email and I will get them to you. By the way today I happend to see the "Trading spouses show!" I was like "Hey that looks like Beach Board walk?" Hey wait a minute I know that guy! thats Luke and his family.. LoL To funny small world. I never watch that show but maybe one other time. And low and behold it was you guys the 2nd time I watched it. Talk about a small world. You have a nice family and your mom was such a nice person. I feel badly about your fathers lose of his brother.. I hope his wounds heel from that. You guy are good people nice to see you on that show.  Best wishes Rafael.</description>

		<description>The O'Brien Family had a fabulous time getting to know the, one-of-a-kind Abbott Family.  The pickin', the poker, the philosophical pow-wows, the peerless plums, the Pizza My Heart pizza, the perpetually-perfect pounding Pacific, and the plethora of pleasantly-passing personal pleasures were prevalant a-plenty.
