Hah!! First post on this thread!

I don't have anything worthwhile to contribute, but I'm sure you're used to that by now. I just wanted to be first.

Later, jive turkey.

I don't know why this little statement made me giggle so much, but it did! The funny thing is that it is a dumb little toy compass with a plastic needle that only points north when you face it north.

Her big brother laughed when he heard her say this and said, "That's ironic!" Not bad for a fifth grader. I think I learned about irony in 10th grade.

I thought fondly of irony today as I stood in the pouring rain during a soccer game...it was the make-up game for a game that got rained out!
