Goalball: The sport that turns blind people into “special” blind people by hitting them in the heads with balls moving at 40 miles an hour.
Another tweet that ended up being much too long to retweet. I love Posterous. More information about goalball can be found in the Wikipedia artical.

Coffee is my shepherd; I shall not doze.It maketh me 2 wake in green pastures.It leadeth me beyond the sleeping masses.It restoreth my buzz
I wanted to retweet this, but I wanted to keep the quote intact and it was way too long. I hate character counts sometimes.
Me: So, when it's Summer here, places like New Zealand and Australia have Winter.
Gabby: Really?
Me: Yep, and as we're getting ready to have fall, they're getting ready to have Spring.
Gabby: So when we have Winter, they have Summer?
Me: Yep, you've got it.
Gabby: So they have no snow for Christmas?
Me: Nope, it's too hot.
Gabby: What do they do for Christmas if they have no snow?
Me: I'm not sure really, but as it's summer, maybe those that live near the ocean can go to the beach.
Gabby: To the beach? On Christmas?
Me: Why not, don't you think that might be kind of fun?
Gabby: But if they have no snow, how does Santa move his sleigh?
Me: Doesn't his sleigh fly?
Gabby: If it's hot outside, wouldn't Santa be hot just flying around?
Me: Well, um, ...
Gabby: And he can't wear shorts because Santa doesn't ever wear shorts.
Me: Well, .. I'm not sure then.
Gabby: Those people who live near the ocean are very lucky.
Me: Why are they lucky?
Gabby: Because Santa can get to them.
Me: How?
Gabby: With a surf board silly.
Me: A surf board?
Gabby: Of course, how else?
