This morning, at my bus stop, there was an ad poster that said "McDonald's Egg McMuffin. The one and only." I had some sticker paper and felt pens with me, so I put a sticker over the "n" in "only" and changed it to an "i."

Good stuff, Paige.

By the way, I hate fox hunters! Long live foxes!

Rosemary · 18th July 2006, 10:56 PM

You can have the foxes from over here...nice looking creature but a pest in Australia!

I think my feet have frozen...its just under 1 degree celsius at the moment

the smiling weirwood · 18th July 2006, 10:58 PM

Hmmm...it seems most cute animals end up as pests in Australia...

Why do so many people ring my up at silly times of the evenning and try to sell me things? Do I have "gullable consumer" by my name in the phone book I wonder?

Yes, didn't you already know that!

You said you live in Texas? Go to Galveston! It's all fixed up now. The Moody Gardens are truly beautiful.

jackokent · 18th July 2006, 11:05 PM

Ahh that explains it. What I can't understand is why anyone thinks I would be even vaugly interested in taking out life insurance at 10.30 pm at night all of a sudden.

I hate to be rude even to cold callers but sometimes it's a bit too much

carrie221 · 18th July 2006, 11:07 PM

You are a better person then I am. I usually just hang up on them that is if I even bother to answer the phone.

the smiling weirwood · 18th July 2006, 11:16 PM

Start speaking fake Spanish. Then when they get confused and try Spanish-language operators on you, launch into pseudo-Chinese. It works, and it's fun.

The Jerry Seinfeld method was to ask them for their home phone numer and promise to call them back at their dinnertime or you do like they do on Mongo and banish them to the caves of the Rock People.
