This is a large potato that my Dad grew this year, it looks like it decided to have a face.
What do you think it looks like? My dad said it reminds him of a fish.

Researching my Vance ancestry.
I have been so excited about finding new (well new to me) information on tracing the Vance name all the way backk to 33 BC! To de Baux. Well here is an excerpt from the book!
The de Bauxs also claim descendancy from the Magi King, Balthazar, one of the wise men following the star to Bethlehem upon the birth of Jesus. To make sure everyone understood their relationship to Balthazar and the birth of Jesus, the de Bauxs carried the symbol of the star of Bethlehem on the arms and armor they bore in tournaments as well as in battle. It was also on their coins and in wall hangings decorating their castle. Written on the tomb of Raymond de Baux (who many think is the direct ancestor of the Vances) is, “To the illustrious family of des Baux held to derive its ori gin from the ancient King of Armenia to whom
under the guidance of a star, the Saviour of the world manifested himself”.
the Magi
There were three --Balthazar, Melchior, and Gaspar – also known as Kings
the three wise men. The Bible, in Matthew 2:1¡12, tells the story of them.
This was some info that no one else in my family had heard of yet so I was very excited to have found it!

Don't you think it's just so funny.....
When people lie to you, but think you don't know it? I mean how stupid are people? You get so used to lying that you think everyone believes whatever you say? yeah right, you just keep believing that shit. Wait until you get lied to and see how you like those! Or are you already? lol Maybe some day you'll find out. But just think about one thing: what kind of happiness can you get with lies? Will it keep you warm at night? Take care of you when you're sick? When you're broken in every way? When every one you know has turned their back on you, everyone you thought loved you, are those lies gonna comfort you? Because you will be alone and those lies will be all that you have left.
