  10. Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell
    and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
    There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this
    is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!

    • That is a lovely little story. Your daughter must be adorable. Send my love to her.

      Also tell her that all that shells of the ocean had punished that crab, so they wont bother again.

      May she visit all the places of this world and see how wonderful our world is. 🙂

  11. May I just say what a comfort to discover an individual
    who actually understands what they’re talking about on the net.
    You actually understand how to bring a problem to light and make it
    important. More people really need to look at this and
    understand this side of the story. I was surprised that
    you aren’t more popular because you most certainly have the gift.

    of text for only having one or 2 pictures.
    Maybe you could space it out better?

  29. I’ve been browsing online more than 4 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article
    like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me.
    Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as
    you did, the net will be a lot more useful than ever before.

    so what, it was still worth it!

  31. Sweet blog! I found it while surfing around on Yahoo News.
    Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News?

    I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!
    Many thanks

  32. I have been browsing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
    It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all site owners and bloggers made
    good content as you did, the internet will be much
    more useful than ever before.
