That is a delicious red velvet Birthday cake you smell, Monica. My favorite. I'm tearing up over the beautiful love story of Mr. and Mrs. N 5.
Married at 26? Not bloody likely for this beaver, but one never knows...
He swims. He gnaws. He builds dams. He moves us with his intelligence and grace. He is the Wily Beaver. And he is here to INTUBATE us all.

Today is the last day of my 25th year, and I'm so grateful. What an incredible year it has been!
Last year at this time I began suffering with a painful nerve disorder, which took me a full six months out of work. I'm still recovering, but that is the point. I am recovering. Chiropractic care works. It gets better every day, but there are days where the pain is still very noticable. I have had to adjust, and reschedule around this new deficiancy in my body. I have also learned a lot about the fantastic human machine (I had no idea how thoroughly the nervous system controls muscle contraction, pain reception, heat and cold detection, internal organ stimulation, etc.)
It has been a busy (read: beaver) work year, I've been chugging right along through school, and have had 3 jobs, all successful. (I had to quit DHS/ORS around January last year because I could not touch a keyboard or pick up a pen without excruciating pain.)
I have learned alot about global politics and how the world is run on the large scale, which is quite fascinating stuff. I have always appreciated the Big Picture. i did get overwhelmed for awhile with the frightening, seemingly immutable size of it all. I'm centering myself daily.
i have learned how much the little things matter, and how they affect the big things in a million significant ways.

The ghost of the Wily Beaver takes his archives now and then, Joe.
It is nice to hear from Mr. Lanter, too. What a blessing we have been given! What is Monrovia?
This is why I give up on making fun of Illinois politics. They make it too obvious, and I like subtle humour.
Mr. Natale, you still have not posted your latest column to the Wily Beaver. From those of us who do not read the Business Journal, we still want to read your column!
Besides, maybe that would inspire others to post their writings. I have always envisioned this blog to be a myriad of voices screaming to drown each other out. Help me achieve my dream.

"My shyness is a handicap I have to live with. When I say "Fuck you" to a girl who's minding her own business, or "those ducks in the creek are planning something," I'm not crazy. I'm stating the product of a complex internal process. "

Matt Komanecky says: This guy speaks to me.
I'll do my damndest Joe, to get the voice recognition software to you on Thanksgiving.

Castoreum
Animal scent markings are notorious for smelling terrible. But castoreum is different. It has a musky smell that some people describe as van...

Is this thing on?
