I'm back now. You can hand over the 40K precious please...
I wonder if I gave really big during the Freepathon if I could get the AM to change that for me...
Kids have stolen and smashed pumpkins for years. Once ours start to go, we let Jr. take them in the woods out back and throw them up against a tree.
One of my neighbors told me tonight about a mailbox vandal in our neighborhood. This 17-year-old was stealing mail, opening some and spreading it all over the place. He didn't get any of ours.
But they caught him. Hope they nail him with federal charges for screwing with the mail.
IF I don't give up on this thing there will be several points of view in my work, but they all revolve around the central character...does that make sense...maybe that's why I'm having so much trouble....
If the Mrs. still worked there, I'd have to take that personally...
The first time I changed screen names, JR did it for me. Unfortunately I was trying to get away from the previous screen name (I have that tendency you know). So he changed my account, but ALL of my old posts changed to the new name as well...
I can think of myself as a starving writer trying to sell his work to buy firewood...
How cold is it supposed to be over there? Our low tonight is supposed to be 51.
No way, he wouldn't be able to handle the responsibilities that come with that screen name. ;^)
Since you said please, here you go.....
See? It holds no sway over me.
ARRGH! Our Wal-Mart is not the 24 hr. kind! When we were in FL during the summer, we got the first DVD at the 24 hr. Wal Mart Super Store just after midnight. I guess I'll just have to wait until the store opens on the morning of the 12th!
Let me tell you about my wife's impromptu FREEP of the weekly "peace protest" in Sylvester Park!
We were having lunch downtown at the time when the 300 or so wacko pacifists and pro-Sadaam protesters gathered yesterday. We happened to park right alongside Sylvester Park.
So as we were walking back to the car, we heard this shrewish witchy-looking woman with a megaphone address the crowd: "Look how horribly the great Jim McDermott, the successor to Ghandi, has been treated in the country" she said.
This P.O.'d my wife supremely and she yelled out at the top of her lungs to the crowd: "Jim McDermott is an Asshole!"
There were a handful of cops watching on right next to where we were parked and they started laughing so hard the broke decorum. They nodded to us as we passed them (still laughing) and said "Hi", to which my wife replied to them: "these people make me so mad!" At that they really busted a gut.
Oh, I didn't mean you shouldn't be angry. Just not surprised...
Ksen? Has anybody seen ksen? He seems to have vanished...
Okay, sure...
