    How many hamsters do you have over there that need shredding?!

    When my kid got his hamster, he named her Pepper, and Pepper she remained until he saw the South Park episode where the class gerbil, Lemmiwinks, crawls up Mr. Slave's ass. So Pepper's name was changed to Pepperwinks and the rest is history.

    GKL: I am working towards the entire place being Hamster-powered, so I can't afford to loose a single one!

    Kirby: Let me guess, about the time frame the Richard Gere story was going around? I love the story, thanks!

    Cheer: See what you can find when you ignore work?

    The burning question is do you get more power per pellet with a hamster or a gerbil?

    Sandi and SV: we all know that 1 pellet in equals two pellets out!

    BO: You are a true idea man. Someone needs to step up and fund you.

Repost: Everyone uses the word, what's your problem

This is from 2009, but I wanted to re-post it because today is "Spread the word to end the word" day. Every time I hear somebody refer to Skyler as "retard" I die a little more inside. Our-kids is a group of over 1000 people who all are people who are in one way or another in the special needs community. Most of us are parents, but there are teachers, doctors, therapists, siblings, and some are the person with the diagnosis. It is a worldwide community, but most are from the United States. We benefit from having an international membership, because it can be quite interesting to hear about viewpoints or medical procedures that are going on in other countries. Over the years, I have had faceless names become close friends, engaged in discussions about body functions you wouldn’t mention to your doctor, and gained a valuable sounding board for advice and ideas. I have grown to care about a lot of these people, and their lives as much as some of my own friend

I'll never forget the day I first saw him. We were driving home from Golden and Kathy said "Why don't you go this way?" We headed down a street I had never been on and found ourselves driving by a little strip mall. Then Kathy says "Turn in here a minute." Now my spidey senses are on alert, and sure enough, we wind up parking in front of a pet store. Kathy had been out in Golden a couple of days before and had found Hootie sitting in a cage looking so lonely. When we walked in, there was a sad little puppy up high in his own cage, with a sign that had 2 different prices crossed out and the third was pretty low. He had been taken and then returned to the pet store. I knew right then that we were heading home with another dog, I had been suckered! I still wasn't quite over the loss of our Golden Retriever, but I never do seem to get over the loss of a pet. Kathy knows that I need a replacement though, and seeing as we always have dogs in pairs, our
