We are raising frogs..

We have tadpoles so maybe we will have frogs???



The Giant Rabbits OH MY!!!!






We have a rabbit Wiggles as Skyler has named him. He is really not that hard to clean up after. Well we went to the Indianapolis zoo. These rabbits scare me!!!!! Here's some info on these big babies
Flemish Giant are the largest of all the living rabbits. Flemishes usually grow up to about 15 lbs but it isn?t unusual to see 20 lbs flemishes. They mature around 9 months. Even though they are very large animals they are not wild at all they actually very docile and they aren?t hard to handle at all. That is why they have earned the name "Gentle Giant" These rabbits make wonderful pets, they are strong enough for small children to play with and they are also very gentle, both of which is a must with small kids. Like most rabbits the Flemish can be litter trained just like cats can. Bucks that are mature rarely ever spray. They also have an unbelievable tolerance for the cold, if you don?t want to keep them indoors. The only thing you have to watch out for is the heat. Flemishes don't do very well in any heat over 90. If they are outside in the heat you can fill up a water bottle with water and freeze it over night then give it to the rabbit to sit near during the day so it will keep him cool.

Teacher Arrested!!!!!!

Teacher Arrested NEW YORK -- A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule and a calculator. At a morning press conference, the Attorney General said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-gebra movement. He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction. "Al-gebra is a problem for us", the Attorney General said. "They desire solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values." They use secret code names like 'X' and 'Y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns', but we have determined that they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every triangle". When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said, "If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, he would have given us more fingers and toes." White House aides told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the President.
