5-year-old Humor
Terran asks, "Hey Mom, why did the zebra jump over the moon? Do you know?"
Of course, I don't know.
He says, "Because it Kaboomed. Haa Haa HAAA Haaaa!"
I don't get it.

I Made This
So, I was trying to make a bookshelf for Terran's toys. After I cut all the pieces I went to dry fit them together. I have obviously made a mistake.
Birth of new Site
Well here we go...again. Last night Bruce installed Moveable Type in our ongoing effort to create a family web page that we'll enjoy using/updating (and hopefully people will like reading). So today begins the trials of stylesheets, etc in order to make it feel potterish.
Wish us luck.
