The 15 year old Red Oak in my front yard is crankin' out acorns like crazy. Now, if I can just get those squirrels to go back to the acorns rather than tearing the stuffing out of my wife's glider chair...

see how things can be misread? I saw Todds post and thought he was being rude, until I read it the way he typed it. He's acually saying HIS story was lame but your trivia wasn't. It looks like he said your trivia wasn't very interesting, when I think he means the opposite.
hmmmm, very interestin!!

Oooops. I just reread this thread...and noticed my own post and thought, "Did I write that?!" thinking it sounded really rude....
That was very poor communication on my part....here's what I really meant...hopefully this will read better:
Ok...that was lame(my post)....but your trivia wasn't (your trivia wasn't lame). Very interesting (your trivia was very interesting). Sorry 'bout that.
Edit: Thanks for bailing me out of that one Suelynn!
