It's never needed to be stickied because we all share the collective responsibility of keeping it at the top of the first page.

Y'all nearly dropped the ball on that yesterday. I was shocked, shocked I tell you, to see it near the bottom of the page when I logged on here late last night!

A new house has been built across the street. Their access to water and sewer has to cross the road and connect at the ditch in front of my place. [-( :ymapplause: 8-| Even better is the thought that they would dig today, since we had about 4 inches of rain last night. Genius!!!!!!!!!! No one has bought the place yet. It's not complete. No grass yet sown, or sod laid. I far as I have wittnessed, there has been one realtor's showing of the house.

My next mowing job is gonna be so much fun, I could just shit! :chores-mowlawn: :angry-banghead:
I can send shin kicks to the bozos. I will do it, in fact.

Still would like to find a cure for stupid... :-w

This literally happened to me today. Nothing GI for me, thanks. (Get feeling better DU)
Whilst mowing (bush-hogging) Son-of's lawn today, the grass was so high that I couldn't see the sewer drain clean-out until it was too late. :whistle: :twitch: Those PVC plugs blow up reeeaaal gooood when those speeding mulching mower blades get hold of them. :twitch: :twisted: This is one time I'm glad it was too hot for most people to be outdoors. #-o
Quickly off to Lowe's for a new one before the stench makes it impossible to finish the yard work. :auto-layrubber:

If it rains tonight, like it did last night, I'd welcome these: :teasing-nutkick:
The shins are a nice pre-requisite, though. Thanks!

I know today will be crappy, just by the mere fact that I have to appear. Work Mon, Tues, Wed, then take Thur off, followed by having to return for Friday? That sucks.
Ever have one of those days that starts badly, then when you leeeeeast expect it, all of a sudden....














































it gets worse?
I sense one of these for myself today. :o)

I just put in an order for some grub from one of the local farms near Charlotte. Picking up tomorrow at the farmer's market.

My cousin's boyfriend is a Jets fan and she got him tickets to the Jets - Panthers game next Saturday. Kelly and I are going too. Corner endzone, row 4. It's preseason but we're still gonna have an awesome time. We've lined up a spaced in a friend's parking lot near the stadium so we'll be tailgating with like-minded, cool people. Game starts at 8:00 PM so it's gonna be one helluva tailgate!

Sometimes, my aim has been known to be off when sending shin kicks - especially if the recipient is not overly tall. Let me know when you need the "shin" kicks sent and I'll get out my pointy toed shoes.

Well, we survived King's Dominion. There weren't any crowds since it was a Thursday. The longest line we waited in was about 20 minutes. Michael got to add three attractions he could do now that he's over 46": the Ricochet roller coaster, Whitewater Canyon, and the action seats in the Spongebob Theater. He loved all three! Hopefully he'll be over 48" by next year and get to add all the other stuff Sean can do. We had a great time. Because the lines were so short, we did pretty much everything that the boys can do now. We did 17 attractions, several of which multiple times (4x on the log flume cause Michael LOVES it, 3x on the Ricochet cause it's the new coaster he can do, 3x on the Scrambler cause we had time while Mommy and Sean went on a coaster Michael couldn't do), before the massive thunderstorms hit at 5:30 and we decided to leave. We tried to wait them out and hit the souvenir shops, but after over an hour and a half of everything being closed down, we gave up. Good thing, too, cause we hit several more South-moving storms on our way home North.

Sounds like a fun time! I haven't been to Kings Dominion in ages, but I used to love that park.

I was actually intending to serve the large quantity of the cure for stupid to lot and lots and lots of people, that's why I was requesting a larger quantity than just a vial.
