LOL!
Talked to someone (a Minnesota transplant about 5 years ago) about the valley of Mordor here.....he happened to mention that it extended to Tucson.
He wondered why I was laughing so hard.....
See....you just always get me in trouble.
Ha! Good! Maybe you should go swimming in that salt lake today :) Or, look for some jackelopes. How hot is it, seriously? It's 108 here and that's 8 above normal, plus no real rain in sight.
Ummmmm, sounds inviting......./sarcasm.......actually in three days we'll be in that great cooling system behind our home up North........*Sound of sighing*
I haven't looked since it got to over 100° late morning.
*basking in AC of hotel room*
He liked it there. I think the sun fries human brains here to the point where they say odd things............

Are we still talking about Cruces? Pit of the planet??? It must be the sun AND the radiation poisoning!

*ducking*
Yes, I'm insufferable.......:-)
I'm posting a sign at city limits that says "all sharks stay out."
I'd get Darks to shut off your car a/c midway here.
Torture.
Pure torture.
Guaranteed to work.
A/C shutoff services, how can I be of assistance?
Pop a bubble for me, would you, Darks?
The camping trip was wonderful this weekend. The psuedo son-in-law pulled and set up the pop-up just fine. But, he sure has an attitude. We skirmished a bit with his responsibilities at the camp site. He informed my daughter and I that he was going fishing and that we would cook supper. I told them that I cooked breakfast and helped with the lunch, along with washing dishes and tidying up the camper and that I was not in charge of the evening meal. He pouted but did not go fishing. So they both cooked supper over a wood fire while I read my book. LOL Then today, when we were about to break camp, my daughter took the grandkids for a final swim and left SIL and me to do so. Ha, a big mistake. He did not understand the sequence of order in breaking camp. Westy, I know you know of what I speak. He just wanted to throw things in his pick-up and go. So, he walked down to the beach and told my daughter that I was just getting in his way. She came up and helped me organize for decampment, but took up for him.
I have decided to encourage them to go on a trip without me. It should be interesting to see how they fare. LOL
The grandkids had a wonderful time in the campground and on the lake beach. They think the pop-up is their playhouse, really, and love to go in it all the time. They met some kids in the campground who taught them to catch terripens and tadpoles.
The kids were asking for ghost stories and I couldn't remember any except the "headless horseman", which I told them. And then, I made up my own ghost story about a "ghost ship" on the lake that glided through late at night. Of course, I embellished the details of the ghosts onboard. LOL Well, maybe it was overkill because they begged me to tell them it was not true. LOL
sounds like you had a great time Babe, and stick up for doing the camping right. Ya have to learn sometime..lol.
A 70 yr. old nurse walks into a bank and prepares to endorse a check. She reaches in her pocket and pulls out a rectal thermometer and tries to write with it. She looks up at the teller, pauses for a moment, then realizing her mistake, she says, "Well that's great......just great.....Some asshole's got my pen."
Reporters interviewing a 104 year-old woman: "And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?" the reporter asked. She simply replied, "No peer pressure."
The nice thing about being senile is you can hide your own Easter eggs.
Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very elderly widow and asked, "How old was your husband?" "98," she replied. "Two years older than me." "So you're 96," the undertaker commented. She responded, "Hardly worth going home is it?"
I've sure gotten old. I've had two by-pass surgeries. A hip replacement, new knees, fought prostate cancer, and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts. Have bouts with dementia. Have poor circulation, hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. Can't remember if I'm 85 or 92. Have lost all my friends. But ...thank God, I still have my driver's license!
A 97 year old man goes into his doctor's office and says, "Doc, I want my sex drive lowered." Sir," replied the doctor, "You're 97. Don't you think your sex drive is all in your head?" "You're damned right it is!" replied the old man. "That's why I want it lowered!"
An elderly woman from Brooklyn decided to prepare her will. She told her rabbi she had two final requests. First, she wanted to be cremated, and second, she wanted her ashes scattered over Wal-Mart. "Wal-Mart!" the rabbi exclaimed. "Why Wal-Mart?" "Then I'll be sure my daughters visit me twice a week
