Anything with "-algia" in it gets my vote. But don't hold me to that. - Clayton, 2007-07-04: 12:04:00

Well Jabber, ya cursed me twice. Now I have a song stuck in my head to accompany my sinus headache. Rained all day here. It's only 60 degrees. The highlight of my day was yanking up a garlic bulb that's the size of an onion. I may have to find a site to post a pic.

Way to go purple - happy 4th of July - Jabberwocky, 2007-07-04: 19:22:00
