I learned "cups" as a kid at summer camp. It wasn't something I did at my school or any of my friends from our town did. We bought it back with us and taught everyone at school, much to the chagrin of the school staff on lunch duty.
I had mostly forgotten about it until I was out of high school and a friend of mine was talking about this video he saw on the web with a girl doing cup stacking. Which provided another opportunity to teach someone else the "cups" game.
The way these kinds of kids games and songs proliferate has always fascinated me. It's like a whole little secret anthropological world open only to children. I'm not sure whether I'm sad or not that the Internet is now involved. It's laudable that these things are still being perpetuated but it's a little heartbreaking that kids are not always learning them from peers on playgrounds or around the neighborhood.

She's fairly well known in the crazy cavy owner community, of which I can claim membership. (Though, whether it's the pigs who are crazy, or the owners, no one is quite sure!) It's difficult to capture their little faces properly and she does an amazing job. : D

I believe, in this case, one backs away slowly for several paces and then runs in the opposite direction with much haste.

No plumber, or electrician, or duct tape-fixit-Red Green-inspired handy person I know would want to come within ten feet of whatever the hell is going on there.

eeeeeeewww Lucid...... one of the worst absinthe varieties I've tasted. I wouldn't waste ANY descent absinthe on making a baked good. An actual good one will cost you about 55Euro (and up.) if you're shipping it to the States add around 40Euro, your final price is about $126. I'd much rather drink it, thanks.

This movie may be a "skip it" for me. I get motion sick quite easily and have had issues in movies before. I was one of the people who "lost" their popcorn in Blair Witch Project. :(

One problem in the logic flow: There is no actual solution for: IF the paper is out AND you have recently contributed. It assumes that those two things cannot exist at the same time. Obviously, it's saying that regardless of whether or not you've recently contributed toilet paper you should contribute more, but how is that fair?
Though I think in that case Nick's solution is appropriate.

My grandparents had the four Poppin' Fresh family toys. If I recall correctly they were vinyl squeaky toys. Of course, by the time I played with them as a kid they were already about least fifteen years old and quite yellowed. I certainly knew who Poppin' Fresh was as a kid but that's probably because my mom called him that.

Youngfrey: I'll second that amazing comment and your observation about the divide. It irks me that people who have only seen the reboot of the series think that it's the only thing Doctor Who, ignore the other twenty six years of episodes, and then claim to be self-proclaimed experts. It's all the same show.....::sigh:: I'll just continue to work my way through the first run of the series and wait for everyone else to see the parallels between Two and Eleven episodes.
