Actually, you can buy a tent from a corporation called MicroHouse. Their tents are small so even though you have a HUGE plot of land, you can only put one tent on it at a time.. And once you have the tent set up, you can have children but only one family member may be awake in the tent at a time; everyone else must sleep. But be careful; occasionally, these tents will fall down inexplicably. -- "I was early to finish | hpeyerl@novatel.cuc.ab.ca <Reply-To> | I brew | I was late to start, I | peyerlh@cuug.ab.ca | there- | might be an adult, but | #define JANITOR "Network Administrator"| fore I | I'm a minor at heart." | JANITOR, NovAtel Communications Ltd.| AM. |
