Guiness World Records

My kids are enthralled by Guinness.  Especially Alex.  He is all about the competition, so things that are the biggest or best or weirdest are right up his alley.  One of his life goals is to get a record into Guinness.

Right now, he is trying for the worlds shortest pencil.  I did mention that I thought that was not one of the categories they keep track of, but he's trying anyway.  I've had to limit his pencil sharpening privileges to three times each day....it was cutting into his school work time.
