1. Grab the book nearest to you, turn on page 18 and find line 4.

I survived a Japanese Gameshow.  I wasn't really watching it...it's a little too embarrassing and hard to watch.  I know the Japanese audience is having a lot of joy making fun of us "lazy Americans" doing silly stunts.  It's hard to watch.

Watching Nicholas attempt to do one of the stunts in front of the T.V. for "I Survived A Japanese Game Show"  There is really NOTHING on T.V.!!

Plates, picture collages, candles, a map of the world, and two large landscape pictures of the Azores.  (Every Portuguese home has at least oneof those.)

13. Seen anything weird lately?

Yes!  I was sitting at the computer earlier today, and I noticed a squirrel jumping up and down from one of our Italian Cypress trees.  I saw him come back with a bunch of bark in his little claws and mouth, and up the tree again.  I never knew squirrels made nests in trees like birds.  I took a few action shots..  I will share later.  There is one cool photo I took of the squirrel jumping in mid-air!
