Finally...Hellbound Snowballs

A heart-felt congrats to Rob for his perseverance and patience. The fruit of which can be found here, at Target and here at amazon.com.

Now go out and buy many copies. At least one for each hand. And one for every friend, family member and house pet.

That is all.

Northern Minnesota: Believe It or Not

Now if I understood the story correctly, my good friend Hauana caught this fish with little more than a piece of string and her own rippling muscles. If it were anyone else making that claim, I would call bullshit in half-a-heartbeat. However, I have been witness to Hauana's exploits in the past which make this story a little easier to believe. Since we first met back in 1997 (I think) I've seen her:

• Threaten a boy she didn't care for with mass physical violence.
• Drive said boy to tears with what amounted to 3 sentences.
  
• Gleefully break the hearts of both men and women like they were out-of-date Christmas ornaments.
• Manhandle a full grown Doberman Pinscher (not mine) because it was "getting saucy" with her.

These are just a sampling of course. I think the most telling of all, though, would be the fact that she was the daughter of a small-town sheriff. Meaning she had to be tougher than the other kids just to withstand their misguided abuse that should have been aimed at her dad.
