I love Game of Thrones and I normally don't like fantasy-type stuff at all. Cowtime! http://www.birdbrainsandlunacy.com/Postables/emo/wavey.gif [OT] I think of you whenever I hear the timpani. Do you still play? [/OT] but I must admit my favorites are Arya Stark and J'aqen Hagar (the faceless man)....

Warmer is no doubt better! Houston, we have some evidence of metabolism. . . :D Bob Day 42. Two weeks to go. When I take the egg out of the incubator to weigh it, it cools down a bit. There are now 3 distinct temperature zones . The end with the air cell feels almost cold. The opposite end feels wa...
