Never had Julienne Fries, but, I normally love most of them...

I am a big fan of garage sales, used to make a list every Saturday from the ads, and me and my BFF at the time would spend the day going, got a lot of my collectibles that way ( along with flea markets) We had a blast, but, I haven't been in a long time, I don't like going alone as much and have no one to go with anymore..or the extra spending money..miss them, also Estate Sales...maybe I will go again sometime. I still have my bowling balls, bag, and shoes...lol

I used to bowl three times a week on leagues, I was pretty decent at it, my grandmother was better than me, she could have been a pro, had a lot of trophies and stuff, her and I used to go to tournaments around the state, it was a lot of fun. I Haven't bowled in years...partly because I hurt my knee and now the arthritis and I can't do it anymore. But, it was a lot of fun while it lasted and was the only semi athletic thing I was ever good at.

As I used to tell my friend who bowled regularly in a league and made an annual trip down to Reno for a big Bowling tournament with his buddies:

"I'm a lover, not a bowler."

It's a freaky looking thing - it could have been in one of those alien movies
I've read some of the archaeological stuff they've found in pretty much in all the oceans of the world.. found cities and pyramids. One of the largest pyramids in the entire world is up in Alaska
