Tree Nads

Well thanks to Jules for informing me about the "large balls" that are falling off of thoses tress I've been seeing. They are called Osage trees and the balls are sometimes referred to as Hedge Ball, Horse Apple, Green Brains, Monkey Balls or Mock Orange. I googled it and have learned squirls enjoy pulling them apart and making a mess, big surprise. And apparently cows occassionally try to eat them and choke on them. So I wonder if the cow wanders under the tree, one falls off and hits it on the head and knocks it out. It wakes back up and sees a large yellow thing infront of it and decides to try to eat it. I also learned Lewis and Clark sent seeds and planted some of these along their way. Didn't realize this would be a history lesson as well.

Shaw's shout out
Todays shout out is to the Starbucks Oracle. This is one angry cup folks. Heres what it said about my favorite drink of choice, which happens to be peppermint hot chocolate.

THE ORACLE OF STARBUCKS



The all-knowing Oracle of Starbucks

Behold the Oracle's wisdom:

Personality type: Clueless

You don't go to Starbucks much; when you do you just tag along with other people since you have nothing better to do. You would like to order a Tazo Chai Crème but don't know how to pronounce it. Most people who drink Grande peppermint hot chocolate are strippers.

Also drinks: Wine coolers

I looked it up, here's what he says about me (quite true!) ha ha

Behold the Oracle's wisdom:

Personality type: Lame

You're a simple person with modest tastes and a reasonable lifestyle. In other words, you're boring. Going to Starbucks makes you feel sophisticated; you'd like to be snooty and order an espresso but aren't sure if you're ready for that level of excitement. People laugh at you because you use fake curse words like "friggin'" and "oh, crumb!" Everyone who thinks America's Funniest Home Videos is a great show drinks grande latte.

Also drinks: V8
