i've got a last minute request. I have a choice to dress as a superhero, character from the book the Outsiders, or disco for school Friday. I'm nixing the whole disco idea. I hated it the 1st time around, unless i'm a disco superhero. I was trying to come up with a superhero somehow related to books or libraries, but I'm coming up empty. you guys are great at coming up with ideas.

My wife took a gray t-shirt, ironed "WELCOME" on it. Sewed a couple of loose fall leafs and a rolled up newspaper. She was a doormat.
I know what you're thinking. Quit it.

That's the one, Saucy.
Second pic: Four collies, all food. First one, Krispy Kreme doughnut chef; second, a box of MacDonald's French fries; third, an Eaton Park smiley face; fourth, a Burger King Burger. NO, not that horrible King that comes into your room. That is so creepy.

Fourth pic -- a pug with a crocodile skin.
It's so cute, but the dog looks so miserable.

Your disco superhero mention brought back memories of a comic book I used to have....

There cannot be anything more cuter than that!
Well, maybe Kayla.
Wonder what she's wearing for Halloween.

I don't think you had a double post, Kay. It looks like it, but I think the second one is mine.

And post them! Maybe a new avatar. He's so cute.
I just heard -- the baby in my avatar has new pix up on a MySpace page. I'm gonna go look.
BRB.
