Feisty Fort Worth Foliage Forwarded For Fun Friday FARATS Fix!

Here's an entry from Rat Trap Press that few will not be tempted to vote for; RTP has called it his "scrappy little Charlie Brown tree" and I must say I like it a lot.

Remember every submission has a chance to win one of the two prizes, so send in your pics!

RTP, I grabbed this most recent pic as your entry... let me know if I should have taken the first one and I'll do that.

I don't know about how things are in other parts of the world, but man, has the cycling weather ever been awesome here in London Ontario. Frost all over everything with clear skies and bright sunlight in the mornings, temps around freezing, no snow.

The scenes on the bike path along the river on my way to work are just mind-blowingly beautiful. I've tried taking pictures, and they look nice, but they fall quite short of showing how sweet the rides have been. I wish every one of you those kinds of rides this Autumn, hopefully this weekend!

Yer Pal,

Your 2 Minutes

Don't forget to spend some time in silence and remembrance today. Perhaps if we all put our hearts into it, there will be hope for us yet. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you with loved ones in dangerous places around the world. May they all come home safely.

Especially Good Answers

One of my commenters once said that even though they used it, "especially" wasn't a word. Being naturally curious, I tried googling up an answer on that, because I thought that it was.

I found something that looked legit that said it was indeed a word. That did it for me, since that was what I wanted to hear.

Among the google results there was also one of those "Yahoo! Answers" pages where people post questions and other people post answers, often unsubstantiated and sometimes dead wrong. The asker gets to choose who gave the best answer.

Anyway, I thought this one was kind of priceless...

5 stars and a Thank You for somebody who answered "YES". Hey, I guess the asker got everything they needed.

6 Stars and a Heartfelt "You Rock" for reading. See you next time.

PS - FARATS entries have kind of stopped... I need a tree fix, man, bad. Can somebody hook me up?
