All HE double hockey sticks is breaking out all due to Miami becoming a frozen tundra. Wooly Mammoths have been spotted knocking down palm trees, its chaos!
Oh no. Woolly mice?! YES they are real and YES they have mammoth DNA. Check CNN, and NBC. FOX didn't report on it.

I’m a Cleveland Clowns fan. Before I moved to Ohio I was a Washington Redskin fan, thus my disdain for the Cowboys. I still followed Washington especially when were in one of the NFL’s greatest rivalry’s against the Cowboys.

Do you guys think a dragon goby would eat gha? I need a goby that'll eat the stringy pieces. I love dragon gobies though.
Sorry Camden, I don’t know anything about that fish.

Gotcha, I read it wrong. I don’t tell this to a lot of people because I’m ashamed. I had a subpar education because my parents sent me to public schools, bare with me.
After the mental picture of Chip and Dale, trust me no one is getting bare with you...carry on.

I never had any but they are cool looking and from what I read, good algae eaters. Let me know how it goes, I might consider getting some. Sorry, I can’t agree with the Cowboys.
I had one of these and it was great till it got eaten!

It won’t seem that bad when you see Luis’s post of the weather that he has to endure today! We should be counting our blessings.
still going up in temp. 43 currently, wind is light but in a couple hours should max out at 50 degrees. more rain though. Looks like every 4 days. Mud Season!.
