you doll, have earned more of these badges than anyone else i know, considering the folks i know, that is impressive! or scary? take your pick. =-)
but you need to write & inform them of the grievous error they have made by omitting ‘riding my uni on top the multi million dollar equipment’ badge from the list…
Pepper-
How’s Sophie? I still have the stegosaurus she gave me. Where did those Mississippi boys go to?
I think the equipment was only a few hundred thousand 1965 bucks.
lol, christopher is still circling lookout mountain, he has refrained from any more high speed head impacts with it though. yay! but he is considering moving to turkey, so he might have hit a tree or two?
lewis is now officially ‘that guy who juggles and unicycles on the corner for no apparent reason’ in his neighborhood.grin
but he has been working his tail off at his job & dived into gaming so i’ve not seen him for a bit.
sophia is in 2nd grade now & can still immobilize grown humans just by looking them in the eye & talking to them non-stop.
her fabulous flying frogs from mr.greg ,were gifted to a younger friend of hers who is, well, ‘frog mad’. didn’t hurt that he calls her ‘queen sophia’ either…
1965 dollars + inflation i bet would be multi million in todays dollars,eh mr.order-of-the-science-scouts-of-exemplary-repute-and-above-average-physique?

I don’t know why Chris has to go all the way to Tennessee to crack his skull. He could do that just as easily walking in front of a bus in Jackson. I don’t think I have heard from him since he pasted himself on a cliff. I spoke with him by phone a few months after that. The myth that was Rhysling is too fast fading from the fora.
I e-mailed Lewis a couple of weeks ago and exchanged a couple of messages with him. His mom won’t e-mail me for some reason. I thought I was pretty charming when I met her but perhaps I tweaked her the wrong way somehow.
I’m pleased to hear that sweet Sophie remains as captivating as always. I came across the photo of her on Lewis’ shoulders at the fair when she was about two. She’s a cutie and she always had poor Animation wrapped around her tiny pinky. Her friend I’m sure will be an adequate guardian of the fabulous flying frog brigade.
Karen and I would really like to go to New Orleans again. We’d like to go a lot of places again. It was a treat meeting you guys in the park when we were there. It must be vastly different now after Katrina has kissed and caressed the coast. There was something more appealing about the Big Easy than Jackson for some reason. We’ll meet again, don’t know where, don’t know when.

ahh, i see you have the physics of the head banging all mixed up there greg.
christopher wanted to be the one in motion hitting stationary object as far as i can tell, i mean jumping off a perfectly good mountain makes about as much sense as jumping out of a fully functional airplane,yes ? 
but as he says "i am of the earth he is of the sky’ and never will the two understand each other. i find it hard to believe how long he has lived without internet access, considering what an addict he was before. he moved out of his tent last year into an apartment [amazing what a girlfriend inspires!lol] soph & i visited him for her 6th b-day & he is this super healthy protein shake drinking whippy muscle covered guy now, soph made him carry her all over chattanooga. now that is another way cool town, even has a carousel downtown.
sa’right lewis mum doesn’t talk to me either. 
the good parts of new orleans are still good. it twas the imbecilic expansion of housing into the swamps that are still shattered hulks. & now there is a whole lot less crowds,go for it!
jackson was pretty boring then it was burned down & re-built double boring. natchez,oxford,vicksburg are all pretty charming though. the big easy with a 1/3? less population still has them beat with things to do & see.
hollar if you head down our way & i’ll tell the neverland boys.
This thread has far more views than responses. Someone must be looking at it a lot and it must be you because it’s not me. Well, maybe it is. I forget a lot these days.
At seven, queen Sophia must be into things other than tiny, plastic animals even though I still am. I’ll have to work on something different to bring her if I mosey on down sometime.
Ciao.
lotsa views?
hmm, since i just got back from a trip up north, i bet it is just your favorite stalker. soph is into everything and has everything due to the spoiling provided by ‘Her Lewis’. so don’t worry you would have her eating out of your hand without bribes soon enough.
=-)
so did you tally up how many of those badges of science you have earned over the years?
pepper harper harper pepper harper pepper harper pepper
harper seems spicy enough as is… let’s not encourage any further seasoning
if anything, he may need a brain bath… his mind seems a bit dirty
