Bizarre to see on plants, bizarre to look at, bizarre to eat. You gotta wonder who first decided to eat one of those things... He/she was bizarre too...<br /><br />Mr. Jazz - :-)<br /><br />Joanie - Nope. Before my hair was grey it was brown. Ordinary ordinary ordinary. It's nice to think someone might think of me as edgy though!<br /><br />Geewits - YOU! Actually I'll have to edit that sandworm thing. I called them sandworms, but actually they're not worms at all, they're just curls of sand that looked, well, wormey... I have no idea how the hell they were formed though... Probably XUP would know.
