Animal, vegetable or mineral? In 1975 Seattle advertiser Gary Dahl began selling pet rocks. They sit. They stay. They roll over (with a little help). They came with a care manual. Dahl sold 5 million of them - at $3.95 to $5 a pop. And now you want one? Well, you'll have to make your own.

on 8/29/2006 The Ancient Rocky Sword of Rocks, if your pet draws it, he will be all mighty.
What you need:
Pipe cleaners
tape
Once you have a pipe cleaner, fold it so that it has two sides. Next get another pipe cleaner, and fold it the same way, and then use tape on both so that the side that has no pipe cleaner will stay together. Get another piece of tape and put it through the other, and ta da! Rockcalibur!

on 8/8/2006 Rocks near flowing volcanoes are usually especially aggressive. They often will burn you if you attempt to pick them up, also this is a common place for mating rituals as igneous rocks are created from the
molten rocks.
