Hmm.. : /..

Caught "The Fugitive" tonight and remembered

David Letterman's Top Ten List of

Tommy Lee Jones movie characters.

It was pretty funny and I have a copy of it somewhere

around here.  Tried to google it, but

can't find it on there either.

 

However, here is a different Top Ten List

from the past that was pretty funny.

Figure this might come in handy this year,

since we got a Census mailed to us

and never filled it out and sent it back in.

I'm guessing we'll get someone stopping by.

 

 

Top 10 Tricks You Can Play on the Census Taker - April 26, 1990

10. Excuse yourself from room and come back wearing different clothes.
Repeat 15 times.
9. Shout all your responses as if you were a contestant on "Family Feud."
8. Have two-headed friend hang out in living room. Ask if he counts as one
person or two.
7. Repeatedly ask, "And how many Eskimos did we count today?"
6. Invite them to take shower to freshen up -- then keep flushing toilet.
5. Ask if you have to fill out form in pencil or is human blood OK.
4. Insist on First Amendment right to answer questions in mime.,
3. After his sixth beer, slip him a non-alcoholic one and see if he
notices.
2. Two words: plastic vomit.
1. Start going, "168 million and one... 168 million and two" so guy gets
messed up and has to start counting all over.

Watch the video at your own risk.

I let the pups out while trying to keep the cat in after dark,

only to have one of these ..  mutant camel

crickets in.  I would rather have let the mouse from the

garage in.  Ugghhhghggga!

The mouse wouldn't jump 25 feet at a time.

That's just a slight exaggeration.

I'm betting?  If you let it, this .. thing

Could in fact jump that far or more.

Needless to say, it's not welcome in my house.

Ughhhhhhgghgggh.

I just knew if it wasn't gone, it would find its way down

the hall and be waiting on my pillow when I woke up.

Ughhhgggghhhhhhggh.

: p..  It had to go.

And gone it has.

Ick.

Girls Day Out..

Milo and Fergus each had their turns at

the groomer, today it was Auntie Em's turn.

 

After I picked her up, I told her that I had a big surprise

for her.  We stopped at the puppy store!

She hasn't been there in a while,

it's crazy trying to take

our hooligans out at the same time.

They have a pack mentality, and will bark

incessantly at other dogs.

Lol.  One time?  Emmy even barked

at a cardboard cut out of a dog.

 

She did pretty well.  She only barked at one

black lab, tried to lick a couple ladies

toes (she loves people in flip flops!),

and then snuggled up with a little Pit Bull puppy

that was a cutie patootie.

 

Emmy thoroughly enjoyed her stop.

I tried to get her to pick out a toy, but she was

more interested in just running around the aisles.

Sooo, that's what we did.  We walked all over the store,

and when she started wearing out, called it a day.

: )..

Ooooohhhh.. It's a ghostly apparition!

Sy Fy's Ghost Hunters filmed an episode

at the Belvoir Winery in Liberty, MO

recently and it's getting ready

to air tonight..

Gonna DVR it while paying it forward

at a charity Bingo game.

 

Belvoir is one of our favorite local

wineries and is rumored to be haunted.

It used to be a boy's orphanage as well as a home

for the indigent and elderly.

They had a fire in one of the buildings

and reportedly had two people die.

 

Should be an interesting show.

Doing a lil' reconnaisance work..

What's the saying?

Do the same things in life

and get the same results?

Instead of working for

someone else, one day I will

be working for myself.

 

Oh yeah! July 3rd!! They're back!!

Another great song

Fun with Fiyah!

After they had to reschedule the Pyrosapiens Fire Show twice, once for high
winds and once because it had rained so much that Fence Stile's drive was
too muddy, we got to catch their show last night.  Lol.  They were great!
They started with the disclaimer, "This is not an optical illusion. If you see
something on fire and it looks like it's coming right at your head, it probably
is!"  We thought that was funny, until the grand finale there.  : )..  Those are
SOS pads soaked in their fuel.  As they also said, "Our mother's taught us
not to play with fire.  We didn't listen.  Kids, please tell your parents not to
try this at home!" Great show, great fun, great friends.

Aww.. Way too cute.. : )..

I think this kitten is drinking pure sugar

because it's super sweet!  : )..

...

 ?

 ??

 ???

: )..

"Ack! It's a mouse!" Dance..

Left for work this morning and went out through

our garage.  Got tired of doing an obstacle course around a bag

of clothes destined to become rags for Dutch's hot rod,

so I moved it to get around the car.

 

Wrong move!  Lol.  Something small and black

shot across the floor and so, I'm assuming,

did the rag bag!  It was about the size

of a lemon and had fuzzy hair.

I'm guessing it was either a dark field mouse,

or a big hairy spider.

Whatever it was, I discovered another

"Ack!" dance.  I didn't know I had such moves.

 

I would have been ..  umm .. alright with this one?

 Or even this one..

 This one might have had me a little worried?

Whatever was out there might still be out there..

I don't know.  All I know?

It's a good thing the garage door was already open,

and it was almost big enough for me to ask

if it would kindly move that rag bag for me.

 

Wanna see what that dance looks like?

Here ya go..

That's pretty darn close.  : )..

Lol.

I think I'll go through the front door for a while.

Boston Heroism group dance

Some more shots of my old hometown..

 Downtown Fulton, MO..

 Way back when..

 The old Fulton State Hospital,

that building is no longer there..

I have had several family members who

worked there, from my grandfather, grandmother,

mom, dad, uncle, and several cousins..

And a pretty neat shot of downtown Fulton

looking the opposite direction than the

first couple pics on here.

Blurred Lines..

Some fun for Friday..

 

 



Aerosmith: Livin' on the Edge

Y'all gonna make me lose my mind, up in here, up in here..

Someone's going to lose their little mind

 in this house by Friday..

 

Someone who did this the first night we had it.. 

And this the first day we had those..

 Not too long after they got a hold of this..

And soon, ooooh so soon when these..

come in the mail..  : )..

 

Who would that be?

Our sweet little Milo..

He loves those little squeakers..

We used to get them at PetSmart until

they stopped selling them individually..

We found a supply of them online..

He's got a bag of 80 squeakers

set to arrive by Friday!

He's going to be one happy little guy!

Like he's not already.

: )..

 

Another Great Song

Come On Baby Light My Fire..

Still on Fiyah! : )..

Continuing the whole "Fiyah!" theme..

Here's my friend's son Andrew Helmick showing the

St. Louis Ram's that he indeed..

Is on Fiyah!

Go Andy Go!!

Oooh yeah.. Speakin of bein on Fiyah?

 

There's something about fire fighters..

They are just soo..

nice..

: )..

Feelin woozy?

I am.

Lol.



Necessity is the mother of invention..

After many months of non-stop frustration,

I have finally decided that it's time to get myself in gear

and start a business of my own.

 

I have begged and pleaded for peace and quiet

long enough that it's time to move on.

 

After a co-worker had his haircut at a local business,

I finally had an epiphany.

I found a virtually untapped market

that is just waiting to be tapped and fulfilled.

 

Now I just need to find someone who can help

me write an effective small business loan application.

 

It'll be sooooo worth it!

I can't wait!

I am on fiyah!

: )..

 



One day..

It'll happen..

My heart belongs to the coast..

It'll be home again one day..

It's a miracle! : ).. Lol.

 Presto Chango!!

 There was a handsome young man

under all that mop.  : )..

It's our sweet boy Milo!

All ready for the summer,

now we just need to bust out his splish splash pool!

Loving this song right now..

Target loves me, yes they do.. : )..

I know that I've said it before,

but I'll say it again.

I love sweet potatoes,

and I love sweet potato fries.

Squeee!

Target has several varieties!

Alrighty then!!
