A Funny for the Fourth!
Once when we were first married and living in North Carolina we were sound asleep.
It was daytime. We worked 3rd shift so we slept odd hours.
Our doorbell rang.
Bill , being high strung, ran straight downstairs without thinking and threw open the front door.
I mean, he RAN! Like someone shouted FIRE.
Standing there in nothing but his underwear, his mussed up hair, a chest full of tattoos of skulls, scorpions and dragons (I think I'm so used to them I don't even notice it anymore!) . He greeted a man who lived down the street.
He was the preacher at a nearby Baptist church and wanted to invite us for Sunday service.
Think we went??? UHHHHH NO WAY!!!!!! We'd have been forever the heathens that answer the door in underwear!
Note: my dad bought us a Mega Millions ticket for tonight's drawing. If we win the tattoos will be the first thing we get rid of! He was young and dumb and had a friend who had a tattoo gun and needed practice! But I seriously don't notice them anymore and I thought I'd hate them forever!

Things I don't understand...
I really don't understand California handing out IOU's! I wonder if the state of Ohio would take an IOU for our income tax. Or even better the city and county taxes! Our city owed us $1 one year and we've never seen it! Never even got an IOU!
Why did it take the feds to seize Madoff's penthouse and evict his wife. I know people who've just been accused of crimes and law enforcement has gone in taken appliances, curtains, popped tiles off the floor! Anything that may have any value. All this before a trial.
What the heck David Carradine was doing when he died. When my neighbor lady said early on that she'd heard it was a sexual thing and that they have several cases a year come into the ER at the hospital she works for I thought "Seriously!!????" But yep, she said most are young guys and they either end up brain dead or damaged.
How Bill can be almost 40 and ask me what insomnia means!
The appeal of the Dave Matthews band.
How the William's sisters are so extremely dominant in tennis! I mean one family member but 2! That's a lot of hard work and determination.
Why they feel the need to put so much adult humor in kids movies!
How our local university has no money to pay people who've worked their most of their lives, but can build a new top notch soccer complex and football stadium. Both with artificial turf. So many schools put more into sports than academics. Although I must say.... the construction company doing the work is going at it starting at 7 a.m. 6 days a week. How do I know??? Open a window in my house and you hear "beep, beep, beep, beep, beep" all day long! ( the sound of the equipment backing up)The complex is very near our house!
and just in time to post this.... Why is Palin resigning as Governor July 26...hmmmmmm.....

Unlucky #6
I've been wondering who would be the sixth celebrity to die, it's Karl Malden
I hate to admit it but a cousin mentioned maybe it would be Patrick Swayze! OH NOOOOOOO! So maybe Karl's death makes me feel "Johnny" is safe.
I do not want to admit how many times I saw Dirty Dancing in the theaters in my youth. Or that I own the VHS copy.

In so many ways she's a typical 3 year old!
While I make lasagna.........
She...
Makes a mess
Notice only half the shutter on the right is actually left hanging.I've taken all the photos off the mantel because she finds something to stand on and reaches up there! So now the mantel is decorated with things we take from her but aren't going to hurt her if she gets a hold of them. We'll never make Better Home & Gardens.
She also make a poopie
NO PHOTO AVAILABLE

Congratulations Leigh and Nick!
If the runners up get to go to the Turks and Caicos on their honeymoon, imagine what theirs will be like!!!!!!!
