Right now, the hormones are the "let's rip off some poor innocent elf-basher's head". Better than the other kind, in some ways, since I know how to deal with those... but your idea isn't too bad, except there is the problem with finding such a person!

Ooohh, nice picture. I feel lousy - tired and cranky and full of hormones.

Well don't come over to our house. Our 13-year-old son leaves tomorrow for a week's choir tour in Pennsylvania and New York. All day long has been spent buying him stuff he needs and packing. And Mom and Dad have both cut loose on him tonite.

Mom when she went searching for his choir outfit in the piles in his room and found several of her stoneware dishes and Dad when he said he didn't think the shoes we bought four weeks ago (that he hasn't worn 'cause we've been saving them for tour) would still fit. We had estimated about $200 for the tour, it's going to end up costing us over $600...

I've already told him he'll be saving his own money or not go next year.

So Jen, you may be a cranky elf, but I can match you with an adolescent dwarf...

Yes, I am from Show Low... but we moved when I was too young to remember living there... We have been back to visit of course.

As for bein' behind... you are only hurting yourself by not keeping up! We are a moving target!

Sorry, I'm married...

Matchmaker matchmaker make me a match!
Find me a find, catch me a chatch!...

..."He's handsome! He's tall! (That is from side to side)
But he's a nice man, a good catch true?
True!
I hear he has a temper, he'll beat you every night!
But only when he's sober! - So you're alright!

(I just love Fiddler on the Roof!)

Money is a curse!

Then may the Good Lord smite me with it!

I like that musical too. One time, I was taking a math class, and we'd always get out fifteen minutes before my driver was done. There was this local troupe putting on Fiddler, so I sat and listened to them practice three nights a week. It was pretty cool!

Oh Lord,
You made many many poor people!
I realise of course
Its no shame to be poor
But its no great honor either!

So what would have been so terrible
If I had
A small fortune?

"Or a lobotomy, then I wouldn't care about school."

Wasn't there a country music song with the lyrics:

"I'd rather have a bottle in front of me

than a frontal lobotomy"

Good Morning, everyone!

Sorry breakfast is late. We're having connection problems today. Drat these computers! They're so naughty and so complex!

Not taking the Elf-bashers bait. I won't.

So which bash was the last straw? The shoes? C'mon....we need some feedback to refine our elf-bashing strategy. :)
