Thank you, Lori.

I don't think you, Billie and Louie need to worry about job security just yet. :)

Most of what I make, I would never use. The babies were so cute and easy to add comments.

What's funny is I wrote it about a Zot thread that never ends. Its somewhere in there. The graphic changes it to something cute.

Aren't they ugly?

If I had been able to search for more pictures, I may have been able to make a better graphic. After seeing them all together, I just wanted to get it finished. :)

Hey. Had to run all over the state today to handle customer problems. I'm home now and hiding.

From the "disabled" aunt, previously at the chicken ranch:



My Dearest Redneck Son,

I'm writing this slow, because I know you can't read fast. We don't live where we did when you left home. Your Dad read in the newspaper that most accidents happen within 20 miles of your home, so we moved. We sold all cows at the chicken ranch. They were all shook up. The chickens danced with glee.

I won't be able to send you the address because the last Louisiana family that lived here took the house numbers when they moved so they wouldn't have to change their address.
This place is really nice. It even has a washing machine. I'm not sure it works so well, though. Last week I put a load of clothes in and pulled the chain. We haven't seen them since.

The weather isn't bad here. It only rained twice last week; the first time for three days, and the second time for four days.

About that coat you wanted me to send; your Uncle Billy-Bob said it would be too heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on, so we had to cut them off. You can find them in the pockets.

Bubba locked his keys in the car yesterday. We were really worried because it took him two hours to get me and your Pa out.

Your sister had a baby this morning, but I haven't found out what it is yet so I don't know if you are an aunt or uncle. It's the dangdest thing, but the baby looks just like your brother.

Uncle Bobby-Ray fell into a whiskey vat last week. Some men tried to pull him out, but he fought them off and drowned. We had him cremated; he burned for three days.

Three of your friends went off a bridge in a pickup truck. Bubba was driving. He rolled down the window and swam to safety. Your other two friends, Cletus and Buford, were in the back. They drowned because they couldn't get the tailgate down.

There isn't much more news at this time. Nothing much out of the normal has happened.

Your Favorite Aunt,

Mom

"Did we go to the same place this weekend?"

The next town over had a "Fireman's" carnival. They had a Ferris wheel and other rides, cotton candy and candy apples, and of course, funnel cakes!!

The kids had a great time, and the wife and I were trying to figure out how we could stay longer.

On Sunday morning, the church bells rang out over the valley, and in the evenings, a cool breeze graced our deck and invited us to linger over the view.

Cool.

Good afternoon, Darks.

We haven't had any newbies for awhile. A new person here once in awhile but they are long time FReepers who have stopped by to say hi.

Haven't seen any trolls.

Hi Amy,

My Monday has been okay. It's busy as usual, and it doesn't look like this week is going to slow down any. I finally got a moment to sit down and check FR. :)
