"Three slender things that best support the world:  the slender stream of milk from the cow's dug into the pail; the slender blade of green corn upon the ground; the slender thread over the hand of a skilled woman."-- The Triads of Ireland (ninth century)--I took it from the book Ecological Imperialism by Alfred Crosby (pg. 8).

Have you heard that song "Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood?  I'm hearing it on the local country station.  I haven't listened to country for awhile and just turned it back on today.  This is really a comical song!!!  Seriously, listen to it once and tell me you don't laugh!!! :)
