I fully understand.

I can't keep my own schedule straight - I don't know what I would do in your position - I am not a very organized person.

Cyber woke me up this morning at 4:30 and said, "Wake up, Dear. There's someone who wants to see you." Simba is home!

Cyber had already walked the whole neighborhood again this morning. He was in the living room reading the newspaper, and heard the familiar sound of Simba's tags clicking on the side of his water bowl.

I can't believe it!

Thank you all.

A couple of years ago the kids were with me when we pulled up to an intersection and the young man in the car next to us was "playing his flute" too..... he had a "Big Jugs" mag open on his steering wheel and was "very busy"....... The worst part was that I was driving the Suburban so we were just peering down into his car! A long light, busy intersection - I couldn't move the vehicle to get away........... we still laugh every time we stop at that intersection........

Treat the woma in question like a floor tile.

If, by that, you mean keeping her shiney and buffed, then I agree........

My dad was taking about six of us to church one Sunday morning. On the way to Mass, we saw a lady mowing her lawn. She bent over to pick up grass clippings. My dad had spotted her about ten seconds earlier than we did because she was wearing short shorts and a bikini top. As she bent over to pick up the clippings, her top FELL off. My dad ran into a curb. We never let him forget it.
