Dog poop CAN go bad after awhile.

It still stinks to pick it up.

I need to think of something other than dogs and their poop.

Supernumerary teeth are not as cool as they sound.

Peeling away sun burnt skin is disgusting but an incredibly addictive and fun thing to do.

Good ideas happen at the most inopportune times.

I can't wish or use telekinesis to deliver my drink to me. :(

1) Bad snowcrab smells like ammonia.
2) In Las Vegas, the constant south to north winds of the day die down considerably after sunset. This means my bike commute is much easier at 9:00pm than at 4:00pm.
3) If you eat bad snowcrab, you won't die, you'll just wish you did. :(
