4. I sent it to you now
GregW had asked some of us to help out with redistributing the new link to the gallery, but then I got slammed with work ( :eyes: ) and you could have been on the list. I thought Greg's group was going to complete my part, but names could have been overlooked.

GregW - if you're reading this and find out freepers get ahold of our website, it was Aristus!

8. Thanks Lynne. I appreciate it.
You mean I haven't proven my good faith by now? Oh well. Thanks anyway. Hope you don't get too bored at work. Hang in there.

2. How Long Does It Take To Cook A Three-Minute Egg?

5. Cooking 3 minute eggs
Cooking one will take about 3 minutes, but cooking 2 or more will actually take slightly longer than 3 minutes.

Why?

Because the eggs you are adding are usually cold and will bring down the temperature ever so slightly. Adding 2 eggs will add more cold to the boiling water, so maybe about 3:10 minutes for 2 eggs just to be sure!

11. It really depends on what breed of hen we're talking about here
Since hens are not "One Size Fits All"

This document from Oklahoma State University can help give you an idea of what the typical weight of each breed of chicken should be

http://www.ansi.okstate.edu/poultry/chickens/

Rhode Island Red, which is one of the more common breeds of poultry raised should be around 5-7 lbs.

13. How cool is Zomby?
I know electric heaters cooler than Zomby

I know people in hell who have proclaimed "At least we are cooler than Zomby"

14. I am a salaried
Which means what I earn is what I make.

My schedule has me working 4 ten hour days so this is just part of my schedule. I have monday's off.

Normally I don't mind leaving at 8pm at night, but today is Friday - I want a drink NOW!

15. You lost it in a bet to your best friend
whether or not the teacher would fall for that stupid gag of "the tack on the seat". Don't you know teachers are taught in their first year in college always to check the seats before you sit down.

I suppose after all these years it's just better to tell people you "lost" it instead of saying "I made a stupid bet"

And to think that Gene Autry watch now has a starting bid of $500 on ebay!
