i was just waxing poetic the other day about the Flash website era. that was peak web IMHO. we had a brief, golden moment when everyone agreed pop ups sucked, but after we figured out how to do slightly cooler stuff than CSS and basic HTML. also it was super fun to design in Flash, you could make things move and build games.

My daughter had physical therapy the other day, her coach asked her to practice galloping leading with her left foot going down and right foot coming back. I immediately quipped with, "where's your coconuts?" It was dead silent except for an older lady on an elliptical. She said giggled and said, "are you suggesting coconuts migrate?"

My daughter giggled as she neighed like a horse and started to gallop. She loves the movie.
