There are "F" in each of the 3 "of" as well.

first time I read the sentence I got 4 F's it took me 3 reads to get all 6.
Bushy.. maybe my eyes gets a bit smoky after may tries on the kitten canon
And, its ok to pick on my look mate .. I got used to it - saw it everytime I look into some reflective surfaces...
Babies cries and when they saw my ugly mug
But, hogs and goats dont run away when I approach.. thats good enough for me

I have seen so many of those "Count the Fs" that I have learned to count the letters backwards - it forces you to see each letter instead of the words.

How's the snow up your way or has it turned into flood waters. My son, in Arlington, said he had 20" in his front yard a week ago...

Most all of the snow is gone - all the way to 5-6000 feet!
There has been lots of flooding and some of the smaller towns have been evacuated. We are starting to get back to normal but more rain is forcast for next week....
The rivers and flood plains haven't had time to drop or dry up so more rain is going to be bad. I am glad to be living on a hill - it will take a rise of the ocean of about 200 feet to get to me. Hmmmm. There is a guy named Noah that lives close by, maybe I should keep an eye on him just to make sure he is not building a boat.

Well, I do have a 17' canoe. Do you think that will be enough if I leave the animals out and just take my fishing gear?
