You need to get some of these:

'cept for work, church and yard work, that's all I wear in the summer. (well, shoes I mean...)

Think I'll just stay over here today.

That sounds like a good idea!

Now my cable is working, but my phone is out. Not all my phones, my fax and modem lines are fine. JUST NOT THE NUMBER PEOPLE MIGHT WANT TO CALL ME AT! Confident I will not need it, I plugged my modem line into my phone for now and have completed an automated repair ticket on my phone number without getting to talk to anyone.

ARGGH! - Technical difficulties. I feel like I am dying from 1,000 paper cuts here!

Aaaaieeeee!!!! That's gotta hurt.

Okay, I'll be back. I have to pretend like I'm working for a little while...

Those boots wouldn't happen to be yellow?

I wish I had yellow paddock boots! - That would be wonderful! - I could dance out to the barn singing "Come Doll Merry Doll!" The ponies would like that!

...and told her that most of her Mom's stuff is NOT coming to our house...

good call... bet that went over like a fart in church...

yuh can't let it get away from you, or you're always playin' catch-up... the search and sweep is critical... if the missus or kids don't take care of it, it just sorta disappears... Goodwill loves me...

I spent the better part of a summer making big sticks into small sticks when I cleared the pasture here. Then I would pile them up and turn them to ash. [sniff] brings a tear to my eye... I should come help you, just for nostalgia reasons!

When I was growing up there were always several dogs at dinner, walking or lounging under the table, waiting for scraps, while the cat was actually on the table, walking around from person to person, also looking for scraps. My parents liked candle light, so there we were, with the dogs and cat, eating by candle light, most nights. My wife, who grew up in New York, without pets, was somewhat appalled the first time she came to visit, and saw that scene.

One time, my folks were having company, and had put out a bowl of shrimp for the guests. Before the guests arrived, the cat had his face buried deep in the shrimp bowl...the shrimp didn't get washed, the guests ate the ones that the cat left.

Needless to say we don't visit her much.

I have to say, I think about the hassle factor when she invites me over.

Don't you think it is clever the way most dogs have figured out that the one thing humans really want is to have dog spit spread all over their faces?

She took it, ran it under the faucet and served it. There was no "other" turkey...

Ha!

That new trailer is WAY cool! - So fast though... Seeing everything I have been waiting to see for only two seconds before it zooms away is stressful!

Stay safe and be careful, ksen.

Hopefully the watch will be lifted with no twisters appearing. Them buggers are nasty!

When I was little, my Dad always refused to have a cat because (he said) they would sit on the dining table. When I was about 11 we got a Boston Terrier puppy... by the time she was fully grown, one of her favorite activities was jumping up on the dining table and looking out the front window. For some reason my Dad never seemed to mind her doing that...
