Hah! Just got in, had Tree-mail with acorns and became immediately befuddled! I wondered did it mean someone thought I fell out of a tree and was just laying around, lazing on the ground like acorns? Did it mean someone is trying to tell me I'm nuts?
(Well, never mind that last part....)

Intuition kicked in, or it was what little smarts I have ("brain the size of an acorn" comes to mind) and I came here to check out the newest feature.

Sho'nuff, the newest feature! What a great idea! Fun, too!

Thanks, Dave! You must wake up in the middle of the night w/these innovative ideas!

Did I get in by the bell? Technically, I saw this right now (2:19pm MST) and this came up at 11:24am MST, which means I'm 3 hours in.... And I *am* a little nutty... but I learned as a kid that acorns don't taste good, no matter how much your big sister says that they do. They do NOT taste like pecans.
