Have it Jest As You've A Mind To, But...

I ask Matthew to take the dead wood out of a tree that's still alive but struggling and he hesitates for a beat and then says, " The birds like the dead branches. They can sit up there and look around. No leaves up there so they get an unobstructed view."

There's nothing in nature that doesn't serve somebody's convenience.

We reach a compromise. "Tell you what," he says, "I'll take out anything that's liable to drop on someone's head..."

Weight Loss

Ailz has been losing weight by fasting. This week she went four days without food.

I took this picture for her to put on www.fatsecret.com- where she blogs as minnitata. Go over there and talk to her about it and she'll explain how it works.

She's never ever been this light or this slim before.
