I need help folks!

I have an addiction. I love puzzles. Every once in a while I get on a tear. The last time I got a puzzle was from my uncle at Christmas (a 750-piece...child's play) that I did in one day.

Recently I found at Wal-Mart a three-in-one (three puzzles, one box) set of puzzles...1,000 pieces each. It was great! I've only done one so far, which actually took me a week to do what with work. And I have no doubt I'll be getting into the others soon.

But I'm already itching for bigger fish.

I've been doing the 750 ones for several years. They have only ever taken me a day to do. I've done the same puzzles over and over again. I'm really enjoying the 1,000 piece ones.

But I want a 5,000 piece. I blame some friends of the family who had a 5,000 of an Irish setter that it took them years to do (they tended to wander off).

I personally want a big one, which isn't sold around here, or a 1,000 piece personalized puzzle. I'm really, really wanting a personalized puzzle.

The thing is, all the personalized puzzles I've been finding on the web for sale are 110 pieces maximum. Heck, my sister and I were doing those in kindergarten.

So if anyone can think of any place on the web where I can find one, I'd love you immensely (and write you anything you want - except the man love, because I suck at slash - or make you something nifty).

There is currently a stand up of Mini Me in our elevator.

See, yesterday the power flickered at 4:30. The elevator (which services the entire building, which is two businesses and an apartment) became stuck on our floor with the door open.

It is still sitting there.

Of course I wouldn't expect that they could have gotten the repairmen out yesterday, but here it is almost lunchtime and still no repairmen in sight.

So we got evil. We had a Mini Me (my 6 foot Dale Junior would have been even better, but he is at home), so we stuck him in there. Our hope is that someone will finally get that thing to move, and when the door opens on their floor...bam! Instant fright because of glowering Mini Me.

This is what happens when creative folk get bored.
This is inspired by lots and lots of talk of aliens, The 4400, and Battlestar Gallactica.

Question

Do you believe that aliens do exist?

Or do you believe that they could exist?

***

Personally, given the vastness of this universe, I believe in the possibility that there may be life out there besides us. And I mean of the large variety, not just microscopic organisms. I'm not saying I believe that if aliens do exist, they've been here, but I'm open to the notion that there is the possibility. Even from a religious standpoint, I'm on board with the folks of the opinion that God may have been dissatisfied with the first try and gone for another.
Revelation time.

Lana, despite all declarations of independence the fact that she is not a dumb person, has a thing for men...namely that she has to have one to be complete.

Folks, she is Jennifer Lopez. She may marry Pete in the future, but he'll be husband number 8 or something.
