Are you just trying to get rid of me or is there a particular thread you think I would be interested in? I didn't see anything, but I looked quickly.

Not trying to get rid of you. I'm glad you're here!

I truly think that woman needs your advice. She liked your last advice. Now she needs some big help.

Off to the waterfight! Poor DS doesn't feel up to it. Now I get to dunk some kids and their parents who have annoyed the guano out of me all year. Quite satisfying (and petty ).

Happy doggie update.

My lab is laying at my feet as I type this.

He is walking and running around like he's a puppy.

Last night he climbed the stairs to look for me when I was in my bedroom.

Everytime I think he's at death's door, he bounces back!

Have a good time. Too bad DS isn't feeling well.

I worked at a place that had this once a year. You paid for the chance to smash a pie into a big wig's face. The money went to charity. I had this boss I hated. Just a disagreeable fellow. But a lot of people hated him so the bidding went up to the hundreds of dollars. It was way out of my reach. So all of my friends got together and chipped in so I could win. People were on on the lot passing the hat so Dew could clobber this SOB.

Dang. Smashing him with that pie was one of my best days ever.

LOL - my HS in SoCal did this (one year they did dunk tank too I think).... When I moved to the East Coast my senior year and suggested this at a meeting for some kind of fund-raiser I got some looks. You'd have thought I'd sprouted an extra eye in the middle of my forehead. I learned quickly to keep my "crazy, SoCal" ways to myself after that.

Yes, it's funny how in some places something is S.O.P. and two states over it's unheard of. I see that on C-D a lot. Especially on the SoCal boards. The more recent transplants tend to see the old-timers as more than a bit "off".

A dunk tank in AZ is considered totally wild and crazy. I sure can't see anyone here throwing a pie.

So now I'm thinking of Soupy Sales!
