Sorry forgot to log in on the one post ..
No...not bubble wrap. The berries....like when i was little at my grams house there was this bush near the ditch with white berries on it...that looked like the ones i keep finding in pictures, pictures in which say they are snowberries.
ANyways....we used to pick those berries and slam on the ground and theyd POP. Or we'd pop them between our fingers. Not...bubblewrap. A actual BERRY. lol
I'm wondering if that is a snowberry or not? I don't know the name of those things we used to pop when i was little. So thats why im asking if they are one in the same...or why i even brought them up...

You sure found a weird one for today. It has to do with the way the moon is viewed from earth. At different times, instead of only seeing the one side, we see bits of the edges that creep over. So this means that sometimes the north and south poles disappear from view. To put it in simplest terms, the man in the moon is shaking his head.

Well actually...
I was going to mention the spliter bar before...
I didn't know what it was called but basically it's a suspension system to make a wagon ride more bearable. A little bit of metal on an otherwise wooden wagon.
I'm not sure if their talking about the metal eye oval under the seat or something under the wagon but basically it's the same concept. Some shaped metal that acts as a simple shock absorber.
Wagon should be able to go on roads that cars can't.
However a wagon without a suspension may cause damage to the riders if at full speed on a bad road. Maybe even fall apart or bounce cargo out.
