You're home from a hard day at work. Nice to see you. You have your beer in hand and me, well, I'm obviously glowing because I have finally, oh yes indeed, finally found out what that flippin animal is called that I was obsessively curious about what the heck it is. What AniMAL???? Why, the ones that appear after the jellyfish in that flippin Visa commercial with the aquarium and Tuesday Afternoon playing in the background, of course! "Oh and what is it?", you politely ask even though we both know you could care less as this is merely useless information. After all, neither of us works at an aquarium. I proudly announce it is a sea snail also called a sea butterfly or sea angel although sea butterfly is more apt and the technically correct sea angel is actually a different critter with the confusion between the two apparently quite popular. It is no longer referred to as a pteropod even though technically, it is. "That's nice, but did you do anything productive?" I do believe my eyes have crossed and turned red at the same time. I quickly clamp my mouth shut as my dragon innards begin the churning required to spew verbal flames. I unobtrusively check the calendar on your behalf as I mentally picture your smirking face engulfed in those very flames ---- NO, I AM NOT PMS'ing!!! No, I did not bite your head off and spit in your neck. My that WAS productive wasn't it. NOW with this little scenario going off in my imagination, I can honestly say with a broad smile, "Yes dear, I have been VERRRRY productive. Do relax and enjoyyyyy your beer" while thinking to myself, "yes, enjoy that beer as you may continue to quench your burning thirst rather than a flaming head."

Laughter and joy have once more been restored to my world and who says, self-control HAS to be dull!

I know the commercial you're talking about and I rarely watch TV

If your investigation wasn't "productive," what is? :laughing:

Good "sleuthing" work DK.
