Top Five Halloween Candies:
1. Mini hershey bars
2. (Mini?) Oh Henrys (I just had my first one today)
3. Mini snickers
4. Blue Raspberry Dumdums
5. Bubble yum- until my jar starts to pop and hurt
I used to L-O-V-E candy corn, but now I find it repulsive... Candy is the one thing I have become more picky about over the years.

The day of behaviorism: Dirty joke:
Two behavioural psychologists are working late in the rat lab, when suddenly overcome by all the talk of three-term contingencies and positive punishment, they end up having passionate sex on the floor. When they're done, the man sits up and asks "I know it was good for you, but how was it for me?"
(if you don't get it, you're obviously not thinking in terms of Watson and objective observations as the only data that matter) >: b

Funniest Ebay Posting EVER.
(I just copied it over, cause I figure the page won't last forever). BTW, the guy got $860 for the beanies... plenty of tools and beer for this poor fellow.
" Let me begin by explaining some very important details, this way I do not get 100's of silly emails asking me to photograph the hind end of some stuffed animals. I DO NOT KNOW crap about these things. This belonged to my ex-wife who had about a 1000 of these Beanie Babies and when she moved, this one box of these got left behind, and now I am selling the goofy little things. Whatever money I make from them will be spent at the local Home Depot on tools and other cool stuff. I do not know which of these babies is retired or new, or whatever. I will list them in no particular order. I will tell you what its name is on the tag, if it has a plastic box or something. All these critter have been stored indoors, and are from a non-smoking home. Again, please do not send me emails asking me to photograp this or that. I am starting the auction at $10.00 and at that price I figure you all can take a chance. I understand from a friends wife that people are afraid to get fakes. FAKES? Fake plush toys? I was amazed. I thought people forged money, not childrens toys. Well I can only say, that 99% of these goofy toys were bought with my money, from eiter the local Hallmark Store, or one of the dozen or so Southern Craft/ collectibles stores I had to go to on a weekly basis buying these ridiculos toys years ago. Happy Bidding! Please take these critters from me so I can buy tools.
Final Notice and Disclaimer: I know nothing about these stuffed Beanie Babies. I offer no proof of anything. It is a stuffed animal, get over it! I don't think my ex-wife was in the Black Market Beanie Trade..but then again, I didn't know she was having an affair either! Thus no guarantees! All have their little Heart Shaped tags on their ears.

A very kind Ebayer wrote me an email and said the following:
The valuable beanies here are Steg (dinosaur), Humphrey(camel), web (spider) and peanut (elephant). They are worth considerably more if they have the red heart hang tags and if the tags are in good shape - no creases or tears. If you wouldn't mind giving me more info on those. Also, if you added more info to the auction I'm sure you could get more $$ for your tools!
To answer her question: I looked and to the best of my looking at them all. None of the ones she mentioned have any torn tags or creased tags. In fact NONE of the little critters have messed up tags. People have been telling me these critters are worth alot of money. I know nothing about them, and told you everything you need to know up in the description. I make no claims on value, and to be honest. I am amazed anyone pays more then a dollar a piece for these things. What happened to collecting STAMPS? Pay what you want for them! IT ALL GOES TO HOMEDEPOT !!!!!! and BEER! "
