HOQUIAM, Wash. – Police say a man was carrying a dead weasel when he burst into an apartment and assaulted a man in Washington state.
The victim asked, "Why are you carrying a weasel?" Police said the attacker answered, "It's not a weasel, it's a marten," then punched him in the nose and fled.

Sounds like it’s time for a “Mom Is Striking!” sign. No laundry, no meals, (except for the littlest ones, of course) no cleaning, and see if you can do it for a day or two. It may nudge some out of their lethargy.
Or not.
Overcast. 89 degrees. 33%. Unnngh!
The young byos and I can live on cereal, melon, and toast ;-).
88 here. The crack lawn service is mowing. It only needs it around the edges, where there’s some shade, and near the vegetable gardens.
Elen appeared, briefly, having had too little sleep at camp, and Beau Handsome passed by. His hair was perfect!
Whoa! Perfect hair! Every time!
At least the Crack Lawn Service isn’t waiting until the heat get really bad. Of course, he probably should have been out there at 6:00 to beat the worst of the heat.
Did Elen enjoy her camp trip?
Don't tell the TSA; they'd hate the competition.
Ahhh, yes; One of life’s simple pleasures: letting you cat lounge on your fedora while you’re wearing it.
I will be traveling this weekend, and most likely unconnected to the Internet.
Please leave a trail of bread crumbs.
Yes, Elen had a great time at camp. I haven’t heard much detail yet, because she was asleep!
DP has taken everyone except Tom, Frank, and me to the gym/water park. Tom and I hauled the recliner out to the yard so I could clean it and have it get dry before the end of the day. The Family Members, tey r teh slobz. And Jake has been sleeping on the back of it so he can look out the window.
Still need to clean the sofa. I keep forgetting to ask whether anyone at church does upholstery repair: we need a patch where Jake clawed.
And if they aren't careful that some other family will adopt you and then where will they be?
Now there's an idea with potential!
1.)Cut off the top of one melon.
2.)Scoop out seeds.
3.) Pour in wine.
4.)Sip wine through a straw.
5.)When wine is gone eat the melon.
Or pour in more wine and repeat step four.
That sounds very interesting! Maybe I’ll try it when we go to the beach.
I cut up two canteloupes (and my finger) earlier.
I know a person whose grant aunt told her 10 kids that she would sell them to the gypsies when they didn’t behave. Her husband was gone I don’t know why and they got by with the help of family an friends. The were poor to say the least. She quit this one day when a social worker came by and tried to convince her to put up some of her kids for adoption. She is in her 90s now and I hear many crazy stories from her grant niece. Anybody with a family that big has some good stories.
I just tell my children that I want them to get educations, get jobs, and get their own homes! I mean, how bad could it be to have an ROTC scholarship to Western Carolina U? All bills paid and a job when you graduate! But noooo ....
The victim asked, "Why are you carrying a weasel?" Police said the attacker answered, "It's not a weasel, it's a marten," then punched him in the nose and fled.That seems reasonable.
At least we know the rug-pissers didn’t do it.
My mom once threatened get a basket so she could leave herself on the doorstep of some NICE family.
I can leave myself and my newly-scrubbed recliner on someone’s doorstep!
:looking around:
Am I in the right place?
All the very best foundlings are left with notes.
My mother always threatened to give us back to the Indians. I countered with, “Good. I don’t like it here.”
