You are really getting into this bouncing ball thing aren't you? ROFLMAO

RYN: LOL....yes I have a short beard, had it for 4 years. What...you don't love me any more??

I think you need some sort of diversion. Perhaps a good book?

That's a weird image, a ballbearing rolling down a mountain. Do you suppose if a ballbearing gets to a certain size, it would need ballbearings?
Your entry reminds me of this thing that happened to me when I was a kid (I have all these weird anecdotes from my childhood for some reason) When I was little I threw a stick into a river and wondered how long and far it would float. Years later I wondered if it was still floating downstream somewhere, many miles from where I threw it. Strange.

Someone needs a trampoline...

now you've got all of us contemplating big bouncy ballbearings :)

Wa-hey! Chaya, I think you just stumbled on the formula for a perpetual motion device. The bouncy ball (some call them Power Balls) would continue to bounce as it gathers momentum with each bounce. It would go on forever until somebody or something stops it forcibly.
Voila! We have balls bouncing in infinity!
LOL @ Ozone's comment. I think he is so highly cute. Yummy man.

Dear Chaya,
RYC: Murphy doesn't tango, but he does swing his body and hips like a drunk when we get him to.
:D
As for the stained glass window decals, you can buy the craft kit from any art supply store. It's not expensive. Your granddaughters might appreciate that. It's really fun. The clear paints come in squeeze tubes. You draw the designs on paper, place a clear plastic sheet i.e. foil sheet, over the pattern, and outline it with the liner paint. Then you fill in the gaps with the different colored paints. It'll dry completely in 1 to 2 days and then you can peel them off. When giving them as gifts, you can put them in between two sheets of plastic. I've done ones of Murphy, Snoopy, cats, etc. It's awesome fun!

Dear Chaya,
Re Your Comment: All of the then Malaya (now Peninsula Malaysia) was under Japanese Occupation in WWII.
And it sucked. The old timers remember the horror. The tortures, the killings, the rapes.
It's an ugly story.
War is an ugly thing.

hehe, i've never seen those t-shirts but would probably be the kind of person who'd want to wear a 'baby' one if i ever became pregnant
thats a good idea about the arrow and 'dentist' thing, it would save having to explain to everybody over and over ;)

Dear Chaya,
Re your comment: LOL, thank you for thinking so highly of me, my dear friend. I'm not a Mensa member and don't plan on being one, whether or not I qualify. My big brother was one and says that the Malaysian Mensa Minds is full of arrogant, shallow-minded and elitist shitheads.
I did one of those Mensa tests before. My score is either 132 or 123, I can't remember which. I think it's the former. Either way, I can't qualify for Mensa because I am slower than snail slime. I am really dense and have learning disability and have to read with an opaque bookmark isolating the other lines so that the words don't get jumbled up before my lousy eyes. I learned to read pretty fast that way. One gets used to it, and adapts and improvises.
I hope you have a great week!
Love,
E.L.

Dear Chaya,
RYC: Don't ask me why. I don't know why either. I thought it was dangerous, that you might pierce a blood vessel or something. But Jake's not the type to chicken out or change his mind. He knows what he wants and he knows if there are any risks involved. He has had it for months now and there has never been any problems. It healed nicely. I still have no idea why he wants one. He likes the feel of it, I guess.
Love,
E.L.
