amused and bemused
Shoulda eaten my sandwich, picked up my book, and taken a nap. The back-up washing machine backed-up (trannie on the house machine died last Thursday). Kept filling. The mower won't start. The blade on the chainsaw was seriously loose, now I remember why - cut a LOT of hickory windfalls last season, ran out of adjustment range. Won't use it again until buying a new one as this one just might decide to jump the rails and wrap itself around my punkin' neck (probably a plot by al-Zark).
The dump is open until 6, the mailbox is open all the time, wonder if Rustbucket the Truck will start?
It has had a rough life recently what with catching on fire, having the dawgs dig huge holes under it and getting it stuck, and Frances dropping a tree on the poor thing. Just noticed the right hand rocker panel is about to fall off. You'd think after 238,000 miles, I'd have mercy on the old beast and just put it out it's misery..
Haven't been out to see if my asbestos jock strap is in the mail yet but a bit of humor courtesy of Jeff Kay is kinda cool.
Neal Boortz has a cute photo on his site today as well.
Rand Simberg has an excellent interactive Officially Authorized, Internationally Recognized Global Test available. Much fun!
I see the Swifties have run a full page ad in the St. Louis Post Dispatch yesterday and today. Pretty potent stuff. Jane was a hottie, must have seen Barbarella a dozen times! ;o)
..got to go watch a 20 quart pot even if, "a watched wort never boils"..
