Absolutely no one around to tell MoJo to behave. Woohoo!! What to do..What to do! Hmmmm....be right back Troops! We'll find something to do. Hehehe!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good idea! We'll rename an air base Al MoJo. Which one should it be? Or would you prefer a town?

[MoJo2001]

Woohoo!! PAINTBALL!!

[MoJo2001]

The Air Base would be good. You know how I am with ruining towns when I'm flying over! Hehehe!

Hedge row: Carol Donovan sits in her wheelchair chained to the hedge outside her Santa Barbara, Calif., home. She says she won't move until the city relents on its demand that the honeysuckle hedge be trimmed to a 3-foot height.

[MoJo2001]

See Ma's house? Isn't it lovely? Doesn't it make you sick? It's so quaint and all that jazz. How about we add some nice paint to it?? Get your paintball stuff ready. We're going target practicing! Woohoo!! Ma doesn't mind! She loves to have visitors that like to work!! Hehehe

[SouthernHawk]

....I want to be on your team....

That sounds fantastic, but be forewarned-I play to WIN!!!!!

[Soaring Feather]

Hi Little Diva, just got logged on. I see I missed the race. :-( Some days are like that.

I've missed you too little Diva!! A lot going on. How about I give you a poem tonight?

[MoJo2001]

Ma did you happen to see where the UN stated that there is nearly 1 gun for every American. It's amazing that there are currently 15 civil wars going on around the world and Liberia is a mess. Yet the UN has time for such things? Useless people, huh?

[MoJo2001]

Woohoo! Count me in as well!! Although, I'm busy with the troops. We're "painting" Ma's house. Isn't that nice of us?? Hehehe

[MoJo2001]

Oh! That would be awesome!! I've been missing your poems. Summer time is busy busy busy!! Kids have way too many things to do in the summer time!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Let me show you how it's done, fellows: A young grizzly joins the fishing in Alaska's Russian River.

[MoJo2001]

Ma's favorite colors are vomit violet, puke green, and neon yellow. Yeah! We're going to have her house looking real "nice" when we're done. Woohoo!! She's so unworthy to have such a great Kid, but what can ya do?

[SouthernHawk]

#200

You win!!!!!

[MoJo2001]

I'm doing more than winning, SouthernHawk! I'm adding to America. How am I doing it? I'm helping my Ma! So? She's a winner too!! LOL! (I'm feeling a bit mischievous tonight! Hehehe)

[MoJo2001]

America's favorite AARP member! Goodness!! Ma, are those real bunnies? If not, what are they doing! Will you explain to the KID what they are? Please!! LOL!

[MoJo2001]

Ma! Would you wear this if we bought it for ya? I think you'd look real Black widowish like! Ya know?

[SouthernHawk]

Hey MoJo-

You are a full fledged member of the team! (Hint = You need to put the Paintballs in the freezer!!!!!!)

That has got to "leave a mark"!!!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

The UN, useless? DUH!!

[MoJo2001]
