Jejeje!  Go Go Go, Trixie, Go  !!  Hopefully Trixie wasn't too loose around 
the "Shooting Star" (Racer X's car's name)...

Sadly, Chim-chim, after hunting forever, only dug up a trunkful of candy:-(

Will the NomCom recognize Ms. Trixie as the finder?  You know, she'd kinda 
be the first approved meteorite Lab...

Best wishes, peace and Turkey to all,

PS, Bet that meteorite, after proper classification, will learn to fetch a 
lot all by itself...
(aarrrgh, enough, Doug, !!!)
