Welcome to the FoxWeb!
This is the Web home of R&M Creative Endeavors. Here you will find lots of family-friendly material relating to one of our favorite animals, the fox.
It's snowing again. After three years without snow, we're getting it all at once. This is how they work out average snowfall for any given region: three years with no snow and one year with sixteen inches of snow equals four inches of snow a year. Keen, eh? The Wright Brothers picked Kitty Hawk, NC for the same reason: they looked up the average daily wind for everyplace they could get to, and Kitty Hawk had the best daily winds. They moved their airplane testing operations to the sandy, windswept dunes, where they encountered several weeks of windless days followed by a couple of days in a hurricane. Average winds for that period matched the promised daily average to within a fractional mph. How fun is that?! If there were a point to all this (and on Mondays you're taking your chances on that), it's this: you can't predict how any given day is going to be based on perceived averages. Everyone has good days and bad. Some good days are great, some bad days are the pits. The average will be somewhere in the middle, meaning a streak of bad days is likely to be countered by a good day or two, and maybe even some exceptional days. And every wonderful streak will eventually hit a wall where nothing seems to go right. It all averages out. The trick is to keep moving even when there doesn't seem to be any point to it. Odds are, things will even out. That's Life. Of course, if you take the long view: the universe is tending from order towards chaos, a phenomenon called entropy. That makes it that much more important to do the best you can to bring order to your part of the universe, or at least to engage in some happy chaoticism. There's no point in letting things slide unless you plan to have fun on the trip, right? If you've written us e-Mail in the last week or two and haven't gotten a response, hang in there. Between server problems and some chaotic events of our own, we've been very bad about e-Mails lately. This has been a periodic problem the last year or three, but we're working to get a handle on it. No one goes ignored forever, so please hang in there. Things can only get better! Enjoy the start of the week, and we'll hope to see you here again on Wednesday. Be of Cheer, y'hear?!
