Just how bad was that attempted joke about John Wilkes Booth at the Academy Awards ?

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves?
Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here?
Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?

Are you sure you're not hurt ?
No. Just some parts wake up faster than others.
Broke parts take a little longer, though.

No! They pay ALL of it. Don't you know that? You are a government sucker of the teet. I PAY FOR YOU!
Funny thing about that... I calculated once what someone who has a $150k home (about our median value) paid in my salary and it was less than $0.02. Lots of help those people are...
A common mistake people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools. -Douglas Adams
I realize that I am involved in a love/hate relationship with diet cola. I hate water. It tastes like poison to me. My glass is empty, the rattling dry bones of ice left in the bottom are depressing me.
I'm going for a drink. I can quit any time I want. I am a liar. Why can't I learn to love water?

I've tried the Crystal Lite route recently. It's helped me cut back. Didn't think of Kool Aid. I likes Kool Aid.
I like ICE, I bought some at Costco. Cool bottles, though I felt a little....girly? Stupid, I know. ON your recommendation I will try some "Vacation in a Can". But, be warned, that's what I'm calling it.Thanks for the suggestions, guys. If one of them clicks I may drop 10 pounds. Who knows, maybe a better, more sveltified ursus is in my future....

I'd be enjoying the rain/thunder if it wasn't for the worry that the creek at our entrance road to the subdivision wasn't already close to overflowing the road; and there's a crapload of rain still moving in. Guess I'll just go to sleep enjoying the weather and hope I hear the weather radio if the tornado watch is a worry later...
My new glasses give me a headache in more than one way.![]()

Ack. Just had our first slightly wacko comment on our project's FB page. It is our first foray into social media for a project.

People will miss that it once meant something to be Southern or Midwestern. It doesn't mean much now, except for the climate. The question, “Where are you from?” doesn't lead to anything odd or interesting. They live somewhere near a Gap store, and what else do you need to know? - Garrison Keillor

I've been using MIO water flavorings to enhance the bland taste of H2O. The girl and I had tried several and she likes the grape whereas I lean towards the berry flavor.

There is a town near me that needs to learn how to deal with media. Long story short, but on a local Patch webpage, there was a faux auditor posting up theories of corruption within the town. People jump on the "I hate government' bandwagon, and criticize the organization. The mayor chooses to respond to these various allegations, and while he is able to clarify and refute the allegations, I doubt anyone from the town, such as the CM, actually knows that this was going on. Both sides utilize bad grammar, hostile tones, etc. It was actually pretty interesting to follow though, but it seemed like a nightmare for the organizations PR.
And that concludes staff’s presentation...
