Thanks for the information! You make it sound like nothing, but it is truly amazing. I just tried to walk as if 18 or 19 degrees was an unknown and constantly changing veriable (on my kitchen floor...it makes me laugh!)
Earlies today on CBSnews.com there was a quiddich game. You probably know that there is a league of about 60 schools participating...that was a very funny and unprofessional thing to watch. You can go to cbsnews.com the early show Harry Potter and find the link!!! It would be so much easier on everyone if the brooms really flew!!!!
Here is a quick joke for you... A cat died and went to Heaven. God met her at the gates and said, 'You have been a good cat all these years. Anything you want is yours for the asking.' The cat thought for a minute and then said, 'All my life I lived on a farm and slept on hard wooden floors. I would like a real fluffy pillow to sleep on.' God said, 'Say no more.' Instantly the cat had a huge fluffy pillow.
A few days later, six mice were killed in an accident and they all went to Heaven together. God met the mice at the gates with the same offer that He made to the cat. The mice said, 'Well, we have had to run all of our lives: from cats, dogs, and even people with brooms! If we could just have some little roller skates, we would not have to run again.' God answered, 'It is done.' All the mice had beautiful little roller skates.
About a week later, God decided to check on the cat. He found her sound asleep on her fluffy pillow. God gently awakened the cat and asked, 'Is everything okay? How have you been doing? Are you happy?' The cat replied, 'Oh, it is WONDERFUL. I have never been so happy in my life. The pillow is so fluffy, and those little Meals on Wheels you have been sending over are delicious!
Lauren, tell me if you only need quick messages because length takes too much time to download... Thinking of you, Love, Aunt Carolyn

Hi, Carolyn! The length of the emails I get isn't a problem at all. All of the ship's email is downloaded via satellite phone after each meal and put on a local server. So when I go to check my email, I get it instantly. Also, text doesn't take up much space. I think I'd have to send a novel to go over my limit. Pictures on the other hand are a bit of a problem, which is why I only send a few small ones.
I loved the joke! And I'll have to check out the Quidditch thing when I get back. I knew that there were a few schools that did it, but I had no idea there were so many.
