    Thumbs up

    Righty O!
    Loons, plural, so I suppose a "herd" or probably a flock would do

    Hurrah . . . Steph's got a name . . . I have no idea of how to pronounce it and imagine trying to remember how to spell it will be a bit of a challenge, but at least all is well in the Hiram household as now Aaron can go on-line and not worry about missing some thread.

    So the whole Captain Planet thing didn't work for you, huh?

    Well to be honest, I liked the Captain Planet thing, but I was so young when my sisters and I would watch it that we called them all barbies with power, we didn't know their names.

    Medawisla is pronounced MED.a.wis'la, with soft vowels. Unless someone knows otherwise?

    Luckily, I'm good with spelling

    That's fine too. We all have many parts to make up who we are. That'll be the environmentalist in me

    Thanks! I was tagging loons and taking blood samples and kissing them in between The chicks are so fluffy and soft, but heavy, loons are heavy birds. The adults are as soft as they look, incrediably tight, small, soft feathers.
