You know you two are the only two people who are subscribed to me on this name?  It's a good thing that you are among my favorite people from those days...or else I'd have to pound you!  heh...for some reason, it's just not that threatening in type.

hey, we're all tatooed now!  that's a little exciting...

So I figure I might as well use this account to keep in touch with you guys specifically, since they're are only two of you and all.  Although, Eleanor, I am listed on your subscriptions list, in plain view of God and everybody...oh well, i think that's ok. 

Did you know that no animal, once frozen solid (i.e., water solidifies and turns to ice) survives when thawed, because the ice crystals formed inside cells would break open the cell membranes?  However there are certain frogs that can survive the experience of being frozen. These frogs make special proteins which prevent the formation of ice (or at least keep the crystals from becoming very large), so that they actually never freeze even though their body temperature is below zero Celsius. The water in them remains liquid: a phenomenon known as 'supercooling.' If you disturb one of these frogs (just touching them even), the water in them quickly freezes solid and they die.

And that is the troof!
