The furnishings and fixtures of the Oval office are 'burdened ' with layers of historical significance. The apples are visually appealing; they are the fruit of living trees, and highly perishable. Their 'term in office' is very short indeed.

My husband would say that the cool thing about apples is how tidy they are to eat for those who have little time to sit and enjoy a full meal. They're unlikely to dribble juice on your white shirt and tie. The core is easily chucked out. You can eat the apple with one hand, and type or answer the phone with your free hand.

I used this through the last bowling season. The strain of throwing an 11 lb. ball, 12-15 games a week with my right arm, while lungeing out on my left leg was really taxing. The tape was applied to the right side of my neck, and my right shoulder. The tape supports overstressed muscles in the way an Ace bandage would, but without the bulk, and it's much more versatile. It will stay put even after showering, so it doesn't need to be reapplied as often as conventional athletic tape. It's flexible and moves with the athlete's body.

Athletes of Olympic caliber are looking for any edge over their competition that they can legally use.

As with beds, the top bunk is the least comfortable. With nowhere to rest your feet, you really can't take the pressure from the couch cushion off the back of your legs, or relax your thighs forming a platform for your laptop.

Is that a satellite dish to the side of the guy on the right?

Apparently, Hennessy or Canadian Club whiskey goes with most blues music.

If you type in 'The Chipmunks', the suggestion is metexa, coconut milk and Red Bull.

Heck, yeah! Hold the caviar.

In his mid-fifties now, Mr. Deezen must be real tired of being called 'Mr. PotatoHead!'. This doll is a very good likeness.

Wow. . . to gain the ability to hug mom back. To know what it is hold someone close with your own arms. **sniffle**

Everytime I've seen an object printed in 3-D, I've thought it looks accurate but too fragile to be of much use. I'd be interested in knowing more about how much stress 3-D printed devices can handle.

That's 'Can-aloupe'.

Thus the importance of the gritty, sandy surface of a divingboard for traction. Ouch.

Are you sure this isn't an incurable virus? I know an awful lot of folks with this bug.

MememeIIIIIIImineminemine - If they weren't talking about themselves, they'd have nothing to say.

The thief really enjoyed watching 'The Thomas Crowne Affair'?
