Neat! Now see if you can get him to take out the trash and clean the bathroom... :-)

Yay, Philip!!! Um... don't know if it's just me, but I can't see the second link... :-(

Never mind... took a closer look and figured it out -- what a clever one he is!

Gross jelly beans
So, we all know I am a little juvenile for my age. We went and purchased some Beanboozled jelly beans a while back - the box comes with a mix of good flavors and disgusting flavors but you can't tell the difference until you eat them because the color is the same.

Currently he's in school for agility, which entails learning how to run around a course jumping hurdles and using tunnels and seesaws in a prescribed manner. Go »
