I suppose I should be, but got up to stoke the fire so it stays warm and got sucked into this machine again.... *L*

Shouldn't you be sleeping too, Jim?

in fly fishing for trout one of the flies they use is a chernobyl ant. It is about 10X the size of a regular ant but can be seen as it bobs along the surface of a roily white water portion of the stream. Amazing how that word/incident has come to be known world wide and how it's now accepted and used in the vocabulary....

Hah! I love it! I didn,t even think of that one.

Although, with two mouths and one pooper hole, it must be hard on the Koi.

I first heard the expression before the Munchkin cats got their name (they have dwarvish features like a miniature dachshund). The first ones of their kind actually came from the Chernobyl area. Strange little animals...and so now a new word is born that seems to mean "abnormally freakish..."
