What is the traditional thing to do on Easter Monday? I couldn't think of anything.

Also, the only 'problem' w/ masque is that he's too nice.

Well, why didn't you say that there was a ham eating contest in the first place?

Easter is partly a ham eating contest, so, by definition, it was already included.

As an aside, some of these seem easily beatable:

i do think there is sometimes a highly specific physical or mental reason for an athlete that is freakishly good at their sport or certain aspects of their sport.

brazilian player who was one of all-time best at set plays had a crooked leg.

rory mcilroy with incredibly fast hips.

wayne gretzky - brain processes visual info very quickly.. this one is a bit murky although if you've seen wayne do any other sports he doesn't seem wildly athletic so it makes sense.

so messi and HGH usage having made him great might make sense.

Typing "Irish people try" into youtube is fairly amusing.

Apparently, Irish people like our whiskeys more than there whiskeys.

Also, nice talk with you plaaynde in the science word thread.

Heading out for buying an ukulele today and accordingly getting a new life. What if I'm stuck big time?

I was sipping and gulping away at a wonderful dark rum last night after a marvelous meal. Some of the meal ingredients supplied by my modest saltwater fishing skills. All worthy of Sir Hemingway's Mythology.

Continuing my rum extravaganza last night at someone's hideaway house in the keys, this was very tasty:

Visiting again today for BBQ ribs, more spirits, and a look at a 45 ft boat, that would be useful for running guns and other paraphernalia.

Another excellent aged rum, from Guatemala:

So smooth and tasty, had it with dessert: Tiramisu, a wonderful custard type concoction of Italian derivation.

We'd be more amazed at all the time we spend sleeping if we weren't sleeping all the time we spend sleeping. If we slept wide awake it would be more noticeable.

I have lucid dreams regularly and I highly recommend them. In the middle of one I knew that I was dreaming but it was so realistic that I decided to tell one of the characters who worked for me to do something and asked him the next day if he did it. Too bad that didn't work or I'd go into the Guru business.

I like lucid dreams. I don't think it is particularly hard to learn how to have them, but it might just be one of those things that come naturally to some and not to others.

My woman loves when I say that I am mad at her because of something she did in one of my dreams. She usually explains that it wasn't really her. I explain that what she did in the dream is the sort of thing she would do and that punishment only partially about revenge, but is more about changing one's character, so the punishment stands. She then apologizes and promises to do better next time which makes all well.
