There was a cool rainbow, but it is hard to see.
Grocery shopping carts are the third most common place for nasty germs according to this Snopes.com article. And remember that handy flip-down seat near the handle just had a kid sitting in it with leaky diaper and some uncooked chicken parts in it before you place your bananas there.
Shared surfaces most favored by germs:
* Household: Kitchen sponge, kitchen sink, toilet bowl, garbage can, refrigerator, bathroom doorknob.
* Workplace: Phone receiver, desktop, keyboard, elevator button, toilet seat.
* Outdoor/public surfaces: Playground equipment, escalator handrail, shopping-cart handle, picnic tables, portable toilet.
Ten things more germ-laden than the average household toilet:
* Phone receiver
* Desktop
* Computer keyboard/mouse
* Doorknob
* Escalator handrail
* Elevator button
* ATM buttons
* Shopping cart handle
* Kitchen sink
* Subway turnstile

I signed up at babycenter.com to receive periodic e-mails that tell me what is going on with the baby according to their age. This is what should be going on right now:
It was earlier this week when Amber called me at work, “Guess what YOUR son is doing right now?”
I of course had no idea, “hmmm, no idea, please tell me”
“Bryson has a fist full of his own hair and is pulling on it, and I know it hurts because he is screaming like he is fighting for his life…. but he doesn’t understand to LET GO!”
Oh boy, this is going to be fun!
I almost ran off the road when I drove up to the house tonight because I thought this sight was too funny!
In the continuous effort to strive for excellence and maintain our competitive edge at work, upper management instituted a rigorous research program that encouraged cut-throat competition. The end of each research session was announced to the office by a glorious crashing sound of small wooden blocks on a hard table surface and often loud cries of defeat. This audible announcement was followed by the “prairie dog effect” of many heads popping up out of cubicles all around… wanting to see who just lost.
Josh was the big winner of the afternoon, winning at the 33rd level.
