Tsunami

I hope you enjoyed yesterday's chuckle-gram below, but today I think I'm going to have to put a special link here.

Damn things are expensive and apparently these orgs grow about 2cm an hour whether in direct sunlight or not. Karen and I both got each other one big gift and a couple also-ran gifts. The fact that Karen continues to be my wife is a gift every day. That's all for now.
