Isn't it weird how far apart we are from our sibs on things? My sister  
thinks nothing of hopping in her truck and making a two hour round  
trip to come home in the middle of the afternoon for lunch and a nap.  
She eats one McDonald's meal once a day. She thinks actually cooking  
things, as opposed to carry out and nuke-a-meals is bizarre.

Ha! To borrow a phrase, "Who *are* these people?"
