It's been a long time!

onthepequod · 03-30-2004, 09:44 PM

....since I've posted here. I was just up on the net, looking for some mountain biking pictures (for a calendar) and though I would drop by and say hello. Don't know that many, if any remember me (it's been roughly 2.5 years)......wait a minute.…………...I'm back. I had to go read a story to my son and put him to bed. Speaking of which, have any of you parents ever noticed how much longer children’s books seem then when we were children, especially Curious George? I've read War and Peace cover to cover and am pretty sure that Curious George is longer. It never Ends!!! As long as I am on the subject...why do little children like to hear the same story over and over for days on end? I have read Madeline to him for several nights now and he does seem to be growing tired of it. His father, on the other hand is starting to find it a little old and I find myself inadvertently rhyming for the next hour (the story is full of rhymes).

The Pequod is a ship that sunk (from Mody Dick). See the signature GIF. Its a long story. But it's nice to see that my signature still works. Many thanks to Ziroc and all the Mods for not cleaning out my profile and signature!
