Odds and Ends

Name:
Location: Springboro, United States

I've been an avid reader since my senior year of high school, and will reread books that I love or if the author is coming out with a sequel. Got hooked on college sports while at WVU and love seeing that they are doing good. Watched Survivor during the 1st season and fell in love with reality tv, Amazing Race is my favorite.

Ann Coulter Love her or HATE her

Ann Coulter is one of the most vocal and either loved or hated pundit out there. The other day on Hardball with Chris Matthews, Elizabeth Edwads called into the show to ask Ann to stop making fun of Charlie Dean's death and to stop making personal hateful comments about people running for office. Of course Ann would not let Elizabeth talk but keep trying to butt in.
Of course everyone knows that Ann Coulter is her own best fan and thinks that she does nothing wrong. The most interesting thing I have thought about her is that she is not married and the more see opens her mouth, I can understand why. WHO WOULD WANT THAT WOMAN AS A WIFE!!!
Of course I've always wondered if she was gay.

Well, the new Hunt from Volvo has started and it took me about an hour and 40 minutes to do the first 4 puzzles and eat dinner. I also took some pictures to have for reference.

The second puzzle which is the first picture is made by clicking on these crabs and as they walk the do away the sand the show the numbers. This is the first set of the answer 1757 - 7649.

For the first puzzle the answer is 2231 - 8135.



The 3's are not really clear in the picture but that is the correct answer.

Stretch


We put an apple out for the birds but as you can see the squirrel liked it also. Took this picture on Sunday and on Monday the whole apple including the core was gone.
