Hi Hostages, various lurkers, perverts, softball playing women, lonely guys from Japan, and Rich and welcome to another stand-in edition of BBF. Rosetta is ignoring us on hiatus for a bit while he learns the pan flute from the master Zamfir like teh rest of us how to juggle work, baby, father, and husband duties. Bwahahahahaha! Good luck with that!
So who’s ready to take a ride?
This is not the first time today’s BBF model has joined us, but she seemed to be a hit so there you go. Our petite flower hails from across the pond, and amazingly at age 24, she knows her alphabet to the letter cup size “F”. She was Number 6 on a Top 100 for 2010 at Nuts Magazine, and blah blah blah blah, like you actually read any of this shit. Let’s be nice and wave to Holly Peers! Yay! Hi Holly!
Who wants to be smarter than the average bear? Impotent stuff for today September 16, 2011:
- 1620 – The Mayflower departed today from Plymouth, England and arrived at Plymouth, MA, on December 26th.
- 1893 – The “Cherokee Strip” in Oklahoma was swarmed by hundreds of thousands of settlers.
- 1908 – General Motors was founded by William Crapo “Billy” Durant, and was formed by merging the Buick & Olds.
- 1924 – Jim Bottomley knocked in 12 runs in a single game setting a major league baseball record.
- 1940 – U.S. President Roosevelt signed into law the first peacetime military draft.
- 1972 – “The Bob Newhart Show” premiered on CBS-TV.
- 1987 – The Montreal Protocol was signed in an effort to save the Earth’s ozone layer by reducing emissions of harmful chemicals.
- 2000 – Sammy Sosa become the 2nd player to hit 50 or more home runs in three consecutive years; the first player was __?__.
Birfdays: Lauren Bacall, B.B. King, J.C. Penney, Susan Ruttan, Ed Begley Jr., David Copperfield, Jennifer Tilly, and Nick Jonas.
Wait! Does she have something in her eye? Holly is quite the helper girl.
I’m so glad she’s there to keep that bookshelf from floating away. Gravity, how does it motherfucking work?!?
Oh I think it might be time for a nap. Rest you sleepy head, Holly-girl.
Thanks for playing along cool kids. Get back to work, Rich, and we’ll see you next Friday.
TTFN.

Glad you’re all done, Chief! Hope you are feeling better.
Damn, I’m still in pajamas. I’ve usually managed a shower by now, but we both slept after his 6:00 feeding, and after his 9:00 feeding, he woke up wanting to play (and get a fresh diaper) just as I was about to carry his chair into the bathroom. Maybe after this next feeding…but I need to keep him awake for a while so he’ll sleep tonight. decisions, decisions

Mrs. Peel, just accept that you needed the sleep more than the shower. It’ll be okay.

That’s my biggest problem with all of these daily polls re:the election. They are simply meaningless at this point and to try to predict where anyone will be 8 months to a year from now is silly in the extreme.
Obama hasn;t even started really campaigning yet and the Republican nomination process is only being watched by us political junkies.
Meanwhile, while they object to Obama’s slickness, they complain because Perry is not slick enough, yannow, more like Romney.
Ugh. I get that Drew is the epitome of a NE liberal Republican, but damn, give the Texan a break already. This keeps up and we’re gonna lose becuase we tore ourselves up before the other side has even gotten a chance.
Later, bitches.
Gettin’ on a plane.
Have fun!
*stomps on stapler*

Well, I’m glad it’s not just me, re: Drew.
Then again, he’s stirring the pot, and that attracts more people. So, I suppose it serves it’s purpose.
I’m guessing you didn’t adhere to the four square rule?
Yeahnonotachance.
I’m about to eat a crapton of starch in the hopes it’ll help settle mu stomach. Wish me luck.
http://failblog.org/2011/09/13/epic-fail-photos-failbook-the-marauders-map-2-0/
*has not seen a Harry Potter movie.
Try gluten, leon.
Good luck Leon report back how hideous those awful starches are *cries*
Here’s the medical code that Car in’s doctor is gonna need to keep handy:
http://graphicsweb.wsj.com/documents/MEDICALCODES0911/#term=chicken+coop
And James, don’t you know that Leon is (supposed to be) on a GF diet already? What are you trying to do, kill the man?
I’ve noticed the same reaction to guacamole in restaurants, and have wondered if it’s the jalapenos that are causing it. I had it once at a Taco Bueno and twice at the Movie Tavern when I ate two different things that contained guacamole. Then again, the manufacturer may have added something to the mix that I wasn’t aware of.
I don’t have that reaction with things that don’t have jalapenos in them….
Try gluten, leon.
It’s entirely possible that’s what caused the illness in the first place.
Jasmine rice and peeled Yukon golds, along with some Kerrygold butter.
My insulin’s gonna shoot shoot sky-high, so my blood sugar is going to crest like a wave and then crash. My hope is that this will put me unconscious.
I’m doing NO STARCH right now. *cries even harder…throws shoe at Leon* oh yeah, hope you feel better
http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/277459/wisconsin-lawmaker-gets-beer-shower-christian-schneider
Well, we did need the sleep, but I always feel better after I have a nice shower.
It’s actually not that hard to get a shower with a baby – I put him in his little chair and carry it into the bathroom so I can keep an eye on him. If he wakes up hungry or wet while I’m showering, the worst-case scenario is that he cries for a few minutes while I get out and dry off. Doesn’t hurt him to cry. In fact, it exercises his lungs.
Sohos, I don’t want to, but I haven’t eaten in 20 hours and fasting isn’t helping settle things down. This is all I have left.
What were we talking about before I drama-queened eating a plate of rice and taters?
Sorry leon, didn’t realize you were on a gluten free diet. No offense intended.
I understand it is medicinal at this point Leon
No worries. It’s entirely my choice, I just function better without wheat. This is probably just garden-variety food poisoning.
But this clinches it: homemade guac or nothing.
Count makes the best guac on the planet. My friends actually beg for it
Leon, if it is a touch of food poisoning, you would be better not to each, just go clear liquids: broths and ginger ale. Same principle as NOT taking pepto; advice from two docs I’ve received was that it will linger in your system longer with food or pepto. If anything, do saltines, gatorade and ginger ale.
Thanks Cyn, but saltines are just bread starch, that’s why I’m doing rice and potatoes. I know you’re right that fasting would fix this fastest, but I’ve tried not eating, and I’m flat-out starving now, which tells me I have probably flushed away lunch and/or dinner from yesterday. I gotta have something.
Count makes the best guac on the planet. My friends actually beg for it
Recipe? Or is it proprietary?
If you’re hungry, that is a good sign. Our bodies know when we’re ready for food again don’t they.
That’s my hope.
That will be enough talk about starches and Leon’s diet. Time to get back to talking about wimmen’s bewbs & butts.
My butt needs work, but I’m not cleared to exercise yet. 😦
I admit that I tried very hard not to imagine my idealized version of Peel getting out of the shower to dry off.
But I failed.
Oh Heaven, I think my fever broke. I finally feel warm.
Yay! Leon is beating the AidsEbolaFluFoodPoisoning thing!
Cyn — and I’m only doing this because MCPO demanded it — can you please either link a pic or carefully describe your womanly curves?
It’s for Naval Research, or something.
Leon – I think you meant Navel Research.
I mopped the floor.
Repeat: I mopped the floor.
And by “mopped the floor” I mean, well, I mopped the floor.
But I didn’t dust. Mopping is a pain, but for some reason, I really, REALLY hate dusting.
I will get it for you Leon
leon, just remember we’re talking flabby postpartum Peel. Problem solved. Trust me, no one wants to look at this, Rule 34 notwithstanding.

They think they have civvie suspect cornered; one shooting victim injury reported so far.

CNN: 4 to 5 A-10s have landed in the last few minutes at the base; the school on base has been locked down. No one is being allowed in or out
No explantion for the landing of the planes
And now revision from the PIO of the base that it’s NOT on lockdown, merely restricted to one entry/exit point.
It’s apparently no longer a super hot crisis/story as Fox has moved onto other stories now.

I’ve said this before (who cares, I repeat everything I say), but Michelle Bachman needs to stop with the harpy wife routine. You know, beating a guy over the head repeatedly even though he’s owned up and would have done things differently.
I’m starting to think I wouldn’t marry her.
best guac.
4 avocados
6 cloves garlic (don’t be scared)
1/2 can rotel
3 japs (take the seeds out if you’re with a bunch of little bitches)
salt

1/2 tomato
That’s really all there is to it. just get rustic on that shit. Don’t get all sissy food processor on it. Chop all that shit up in good size chunks mix it up and you’re golden. I’ll generally comb through the pepper isle (serrano, habanero, etc.) and add those. best served with Tecate,lime,and salt
For special occasions add some chopped up boiled shrimp and lump crab meat
Hey, count, it’s good to see you. I miss your wit.
And by “wit” I mean recipes.
3 japs
do you mean real japs or are you talking about Jewish American princesses.
I’m not cooking tonight, Xbrad. I’m sitting at a soccer field. Hoping my son gets done early. I wanna go for a run.
Howdy Count.
Rotel in the guac? Nice touch.

What the hell is rotel?
but Michelle Bachman needs to stop with the harpy wife routine.
Don’t think she can. She sees her Iowa straw poll finish becoming meaningless, and she’s desperate. Desperation is never attractive.
I agree Roamy, but if she EVER wanted to be considered for VP or a cabinet spot in another’s administration, she needs to use her head and stop slitting her own throat.
That looks delicious, count. And since the wife doesn’t like guac, more for me!
What the hell is rotel?
It’s made in New York
Why not run around the soccer field, Car in?

xBrad, if he invited you, then obviously that’s cool.
It just occurred to me that I haven’t complimented Cyn on her BBF poat today.
Great job!
Story from a Kansas State Highway Patrol officer:
I made a traffic stop on an elderly lady the other day for speeding. I asked for her driver’s license, registration, and proof of insurance.
The lady took out the required information and handed it to me. In with the cards I was somewhat surprised (due to her advanced age) to see she had a conceal carry permit. I looked at her and asked if she had a weapon in her possession at this time. She responded that she indeed had a .45 automatic in her glove box. Something—body language, or the way she said it—made me want
to ask if she had any other firearms. She did admit to also having
a 9mm Glock in her center console. Now I had to ask one more time if that was all. She responded once again that she did have just one more, a .38 special in her purse. I then asked her what was she so afraid of.
She looked me right in the eye and said, “Not a damn thing!”
I’d like to make a motion that Cyn does all BBF poats from now on. All in favor let go of your dicks and say aye. Plus Cyn’s one funny chick. She seems to have a dude’s sense of humor. Which means she either grew up with several brothers or she has a penis.
MJ, I think I got your letter by mistake.
“To whom it may concern;
I am returning this jar of personal enhancement cream as it has not given me the results you promised. I rubbed it ‘down there’ every day for a month and have not seen any gain in length or width.

At least that’s what Mrs Rosetta told me he said.
“Dr. Oz says that apple juice will turn you into a zombie and kill your entire family tree if you drink it.”
Seems reasonable.
Guess why the TiFW’s don’t eat McDonald’s oatmeal, Chief…..(never would have believed it)
Seems reasonable.
I don’t remember asking you to comment.

I think I painted the entire library bathroom.
Who goes to McDonald’s for oatmeal?
You pour water on oatmeal and heat it up to make oatmeal.

Hey, would you guys keep the family of a facebook friend of mine in your prayers this weekend? She went to HS with my little sister and reached out to me after she passed away.
I just read about this on her FB page, and went looking for what happened; it’s the kind of thing that you think only happens to “other people”. I can’t imagine what the family is going through right now:

My hubby is having a gout flare up from stress. I didn’t even know it could be stress related. Stupid gout.
TiFW – We use steel-cut oats at home. Never had a problem.
Think of this next time you dress Floyd up.
We haven’t eaten at Taco Bueno since the “Guacamole Event” a year or so ago.

Yep, Chief – oatmeal in its natural state is fine; it’s listed as a no-no on their GF menu for some reason. Really bummed Mr. TiFW out, too – he used to love that stuff!
It’s strangely dark outside of the Casa de TiFW right now; clouds are puffy, there’s strange rumbling noises outside, and moisture is falling from the sky…..

I don’t know where I learned about that, probably when my lab got a little large.
Another good tip is to occasionally substitute a raw turkey neck in place of a regular meal. I don’t think it’s a low cal but it’s a freaking workout. Floyd will be exhausted after meal time and his teeth will be shiny white.

Teresa, I’ve heard that mold that grows in commercial spices can exacerbate it, too. Particularly cayenne.
Anyone heard from the folks at the DC meat-up yet?

I was actually rocking a tailored 3 piece suit in ’75!
The suggestion was to buy the cayenne capsules and crack them open to spice food, because the quality control is much better for those.

Stupid brain.
Leon – it’s not carbon DIoxide that’s the issue in that scenario – it’s carbon MONoxide.
Carbon Dioxide vs Carbon Monoxide.
Winner takes ALL!
I’m aware, Revvy 🙂 CO binds preferentially to hemoglobin and prevents the uptake of O2. If you were in an all-CO2 atmosphere, you’d just drown like normal, not lose the ability to breathe.
If you run your car in the garage with the door closed it gets warmer.
That proves that CO2 causes global warming.

The good news is that I don’t have to drop everything and stop working to pick up my boys from school, which had been pre-arranged albeit last minute because Mr. Cyn was slated to work late. The call came and I didn’t have to stop working. Yay!!
The bad news is that when I opened the washing machine to transfer clean cloths to the dryer, it was still filled with water. I now have to stop working to wring out a full load of dirty wet clothing. FFFFUUUU!
So would I be wrong in my assumption that fate just wants me to stop working and fix a cocktail now?!?

*pops in* Thanks for worryin’ ’bout me, ya’ll. Pray for everyone who was at the air race. I’m checking for updates from a few of my friends who work in emergency services here in town.
Thank you Cyn.
I know the odds are millions to one, but it’s still good to know.
Just read a tweet that said hospitals told to expect 80 to 100 for injuries and all staff are being called in.
Several folks had to be Careflighted … the streets are pretty much clogged with ambulances, I hear. I live about half a mile from the hospital; I’ve been hearing the sirens for a while now. Local news says at least 12 dead all ready.
Good to see you Sky. Prayers to all.
Come back when you have more time. Hugz
Here’s a link to a live feed from a Reno TV station:
http://is.gd/3NhQZz
Glad you are okay, Ember. Hope the toll stays where it is.
Hospital publicist just announced that the number of injured all ready submitted is 21, not 39. I wonder if that means the death toll is higher …
Beautiful avatar, Sky….glad to see you…hate the circumstances. Prayers for anyone involved.
Thanks, Mare. *hugs* I’m still waiting to hear from quite a few friends. I’m hoping they’re all okay. One of my friends was about 50 yards away; says it’s the most terrifying thing he’s ever seen. I’m really freaked out right now.

I have come across video from a live stream of the race and the crash and its aftermath. It is just horrific.
Hang in there, Sky. You’re a tough nut. But you need to come here more often.
I’m going to be trying. We got one of the computers fixed, so we’re getting to a point where we actually have a reliable computer to use. Wooh! I miss you guys. *hugs ’round* You’re good friends when a girl is in need, and even when she ain’t.

Wow. So, one of the helicopters that was rushing people to the hospital was an army helicopter that was at the air races on display; the owners volunteered it and started flying people to the local hospital.

Mare, are you watching the Broncos destroy Toledo?
My boss just sold his SRT8 Challenger. He never let me drive it, but gave it to my bro for the weekend. He (boss) did not like visibility. Bro eventually got around to liking it, after turning traction control off and learning to manually shift it.
Boss bought a new Camaro after the Challenger. I see it is for sale now too.
Scary stuff at the air show. I’m still drinking. Just not beer or bourbon.
I was surprised at how well it handled.
Yes, Jew, and at 20 to 9 I’m not happy. I’m nervous. But I’m proud that they are playing 2 away games at the start of the season and they are doing well.

22 critical at St. Mary’s Hospital. Their ER may be overloaded.
Sky, sorry, no idea what to cut passionfruit vodka with.
Maybe just chill it in the freezer, then sip like an apertif?
Aww, crap. Turnover.
BTW, I’m actually surprised there didn’t seem to be a large fireball when the Mustang crashed.

I was thinking maybe pomegranate? Shortest press conference ever just finished. They will not release death toll, # of critical, etc. Sigh. I was also surprised there was no fireball. The debris went flying, though. Left a mini crater in the ground, apparently.
“I believe passionfruit vodka is meant to be swilled directly from the bottle.”
That’s two votes for from the bottle. It’s a from the bottle kind of night, methinks. Sigh.
I hate to say it, but they’re still probably not sure how many are dead.
You’re probably right, Xbrad. Sigh. First time a crash at these air races has involved spectators. So sad. For all that Reno’s a city, it’s a small one. This is a small community. And after the shooting last week in Carson, add this on top … the whole community is just reeling.
I know, dear.
I feel for you.
Sky, I’m listening/watching a live news conference right now, but I can tell you that I am not hearing any new or updated information.
Thanks.
Crack stupid jokes about something unreleated, please. I wanna not pay attention for at least 10 minutes.
Just talked to our friends – their kids did NOT make the trip, thank goodness. They said they were about 100 feet from where the plane went in; honestly thought that the plane was going to hit them, but it pulled away at the last minute. They said if it had been just a few feet further along, it would have missed the stands completely.
They’re still in shock, but grateful to be alive.
Same here, Cyn; I just turned it off. I can’t listen any more. I’m waaaay too upset and still haven’t heard from waaaay too many people to be comfortable.
So so so glad your friends are okay, Teresa. *hugs* That’s AWESOME news.

We didn’t realize they were THAT close, Sky; I don’t think it’s really going to hit them ’til later tonight. One of the women saw someone with a limb missing. I just can’t imagine….
I wish your fella was there with you tonight – there are times when you need a guy beside you, just to put his arms around you. Kinda makes the world feel safer…..

Present idea for an 18-year-old boy? I hate to say it, but if you’re having to ask for present ideas, your best bet is cash (or gift card to a store he likes).
I read an interesting paper a while back on the utility of gift-giving, and it basically said that assuming the recipient of the gift is “informed” (that is, knows what s/he would like to spend money on), the best you can hope for is to match the utility of cash. The only way to exceed the utility of cash is if you are better informed than the recipient (e.g., if you know movies really well and can pick out some movies the recipient won’t have seen but will enjoy).
I hate giving cash, though, even though I know it’s most useful to kids that age. What about college supplies, if he’s college-bound? It’s a little early, granted, but something like a magnetic bulletin board (container store has one) could be cool now and also make the trip to a dorm room later.
*clink*

Here’s my post on that paper.
gout boy.
I first read that as goat boy. I blame PJM.
A gift card to someplace like Best Buy, Wal-Mart, or Target is always a good thing, as is an all-purpose “Cash” card (prepaid debit, basically).
Our teenagers LOVED getting those – the money didn’t slip away as quickly as cash did, and they were able to use it for something they really wanted.
And since it was a “card”, they felt all grown-up using it. The nice thing about those cards is that they can be used just about anywhere – they’re really convenient!
*My flounce needs work.
Maybe, but your sashay was spot on.
Here’s my post on that paper.

40-15. Idaho ass potato wins!
Okay.
The Notorious R.A.D. is in bed. About half the bottle of passionfruit vodka is left (this shit is going to rot my teeth out, it’s so sweet). Time to get comatose, or do I stay sober and keep checking Facechimp compulsively for updates from people who haven’t told me they’re okay?
Not a real big Goatboy fan myself.
In fact, not much on SNL that I’ve liked since Steve Martin left.
I have never read nor seen The Notebook.
Yalls favorite movie The Notebook is on
It.Burns!!
All the people here hate it oso
I’ve read the comments. I have friends who read all of his books. I read trashy romance novels but I have no interest in The Last Song, Dear John, The Notebook, etc. I think I’m missing a girly gene.
How could I hate it?
I’ve never seen it!
I hate all kinds of things I’ve never seen, Xbrad. Like, um, the evil parallel universe where everyone has a goatee. Fuck that place.
I’m going to go take a break from the internet. Pretend that nothing bad is happening. Might be back tonight. Or I might drink myself into a coma.
Brad – I watched all of 15 minutes of The Notebook. Got up and of my chair and left the room.
Xbrad, Debbie Downer was the last character on SNL that I liked. I keep watching and I don’t know why.
I did see “Message in a Bottle” which was a good movie.
Kevin Costner dies at the end. That’s kinda the definition of good, right?
I haven’t liked a Kevin Costner movie since Silverado. I do like parts of Tin Cup.

I liked the Robin Hood movie that Kevin Costner was in, but only for the nekkid butt shot and Alan Rickman.
Alan Rickman was good in Robin Hood. Bryan Adams singing the theme song was annoying though.
There’s no middle ground with Bryan Adams, is there.
Can’t do it. Tried to ignore the internetz so I wouldn’t think about the crash. Failed. Ember Jr. came out of her room a few minutes ago and asked, “Mommy, did the man on the news say if we know anyone that got hurt?” I started crying. She started crying. Vodka bottle is looking very empty.
“Because it’s DULL, you twit. It’ll hurt more!”
Nope. I have to be careful making fun of him as quite a few of my friends are attached to his songs. I have friends who danced to the Don Juan de Marco song at their wedding reception.
Yo, I’mma let you finish, but Men in Tights was the BEST Robin Hood movie.
My favorite Bryan Adams song.

Sky, I was still a lurker before you moved home to Reno. I hope you hear from all of your friends and they are safe.
Thanks, Oso. I hope so too. And a very belated ‘ello’n’welcome’n’such. I’ve been a bad, bad, bad fake internet friend for the last year, and will try to be better.
You are happy to be home and it shows.
Home is good. Just this week has been rough with the shooting and now this. *sigh* Still haven’t heard from my bandmates. Hope they’re okay. STRESS!
Moar new funny from our honorary Hostage David Thorne:

And his tweets are hilarious too if you’re looking for more good chuckles.
Scott needs an honorary PhD.
Scott needs a whack on the head with a 2×4.
Hi Sky!
Hey, Batman! How’re you and the beautiful wife?
Sky, she is still beautiful, and I am still me.
Fabulous. *love*
Okay. I’m exhausted from this … stuff, and The Spouse just came home. He promised to get me whiskey and make me a whiskey cider with alcoholic caramel whipped cream on top while I play video games, so that’s how I’m spending the rest of my night.
Praying types, please keep praying for Reno and to the victims. Non-praying types, good vibes are appreciated. I miss you guys.
I’m pretty sure that Sept 16 is some kind of meskin holiday. Did any of you racists recognize?
I thought not.

Perhaps Lauraw should call him this morning? See if he wants to go to breakfast?
wakey wakey
New Mark Steyn – YEAAAAA!
After we shake out all these solar companies, up next in the green boondoogle will be battery technology. JCI took that money to develop “advanced battery technology” … as soon as they get it down, they’re shipping those jobs overseas. Bank on it. In the meantime, they’re working on something they probably would have anyway, and all the top exec’s got a nice bonus. FREE MONEY. They didn’t even build anything – they reopened a plant they had shuttered.
Lazy hostages.
This is what happens when I don’t drink. I wake up fricken early to NO ONE HERE.
*rummages through cupboard for alcohol
Driving to road test w/ son. Someone facechimptwitter that for me.
I am sitting on a couch.
More coffee? Well if you insist.
I’m here car in. And I had four beers last night.
Crap I’m so nervous I can’t watch
Crap parallel parking . Why do they make em do that.
The key to parallel parking is proper speed.
So nervous.
That is a classic pupster.
It cracks me up that the driver immediately gets out to see if there is any damage.
I haven’t parallel parked in ages. I probably couldn’t pass in anything bigger than a VW.
(punch buggy, no punchbacks)
Moarnin’ Romy.

Teach him this.
He had to use my minivan. OYE.
He did ok with the parallel parking, but not so good on some other parking, backing up moves.
I was a nervous wreck, though.
He passed! Yea!
Drinks all around.
You should let him go on car dates.
Boy+Car=Boob
If you don’t do this he will quit the football team and start hanging out with the drama club.

Teach him this.
That was on the test.
Man was it hard.
Now he can get his for-reals (with restrictions) driving license on Monday.
He’s got Homecoming next Saturday. That’s why he really wanted his license.
Oye.
How’s yer foot?
“We’re supposed to become serfs to an international leftwing climate dictatorship based on weather predictions for about five decades from now when meteorologists can’t tell you with any certainty greater than you’d get from flipping a coin whether it’ll be raining a week from today. Pass.”

It cracks me up that the driver immediately gets out to see if there is any damage.
It’s surprising, because you wouldn’t think someone would get out of the car so quickly after crapping their pants.
Thomas Dolby goes really well with Pupster’s gif. 😀
Better, but still kind of hurty. I probably should have gone to see a Dr or something, but I had the whole work-travel thing.
I got my official time, which was 56:15. Not bad for being in excruciating pain for 5 miles.
I have your shirt, too. It came out great. I’ll send it to you in the next 3-120 days.
That letter wasn’t mine Roamy. It was for a friend.
*checks enhancement cream supply.
Yep, for a friend.
Not bad. You’ve got 4 weeks to sent me that shirt. If you don’t I’m gonna
fly down there and kick your asswrite a strongly written letter.Ok, off to home depot, then cutting the grass, washing cars, and clean the pool.
Then counting indians. Alcohol, not feather. Or dot.
MJ sounds like kind of a slacker… just saying.
I’m wondering about his priorities
this would make a great Secret Santa gift for *someone* I know…

I’ll kick your ass, brew, don’t think I won’t.
New poat.
