Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |

Heh...that's what you get for missing spammich practice...
They make cars without power locks or windows. Mine is a brand new car, and it doesn't have power anything. Well, power steering.
Missed it by ~that~ much!
See you later, libarian. Don't be a stranger!
now I'm really outta here...got's a party to attend for the head troll who's leaving
When Matthew barfed and I crawled in through the bathroom window, I unsplined the screen. Steve had to take a splining tool and respline to screen...it's funny because whenever we use the splining tool we shout at each other "Spline me BABY!!
Weird, I know...but it's good for a few chuckles.
You get an A for effort at least! :) See you later!
Today's earworm was provided by "Spider-Man 2": my brain keeps playing "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head" :)
Well, that's good to know because my van has power everything...which makes me vey nervous...or at least more nervous than I already am...
Yikes!!! Fire ants are worse than scorpions, yellow jackets, bumble bees and wasps all rolled into one!!! We hates them we does!!! They are the worstest thing to be stung by!!!
Since we're on this subject, here's an interesting article from "The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook" :)
How to Escape from a Sinking Car:
1. As soon as you hit the water, open your window. This is your best chance of escape, because opening the door will be very difficult given the outside water pressure. Opening the windows allows water to come in and equalize the pressure. Once the pressure inside and outside the car is equal, you'll be able to open the door.
2. If you power windows won't work or you cannot roll your windows down all the way, attempt to break the glass with your foot or shoulder or a heavy object such as an antitheft steering wheel lock.
3. Get out.
4. If you are unable to open the window or break it, you have one final option. Wait until the car begins filling with water. When the water reaches your head, take a deep breath and hold it. Now the pressure should be equalized inside and outside, and you should be able to open the door and swim to the surface.
Maybe them was hallucinations we was havin'. Maybe it weren't Ruthy after all!
I don't think we even HAVE them up here! I'd never experienced bites like that. It was awful. They hurt for days!
We've been working on the web pages of wedding pics amid router issues this morning. We've got to try to reconnect ecurbh so we can get that posted, if I don't return, we had to disconnect me for awhile, but we'll be back and ping to the weddin' album shortly!
I can't wait to see it! Standing by....
You *know* if they made a belly button ring I might have to get one!
Speaking of which, here's a fun bedtime story :)
[SNIP]
The Brazilian official threw up lean and lanky arms and clawed the air with wildly distended fingers. "Leiningen!" he shouted. "You're insane! They're not creatures you can fight--they're an elemental--an 'act of God!' Ten miles long, two miles wide--ants, nothing but ants! And every single one of them a fiend from hell; before you can spit three times they'll eat a full-grown buffalo to the bones. I tell you if you don't clear out at once there'll he nothing left of you but a skeleton picked as clean as your own plantation. . .

I'm just shakin' my head here...
