Typical. As soon as he decides to become a Republican he starts slamming liberals for their use of talcum powder.

probably in Florida. in our own banana republic anything goes.

I just spent 2 hours on the phone. According to United Health Care I have no health insurance. According to my employers and their peoplesoft thingie and the deductions from my paycheck I do. too angry to go out after all of that. Where's that bottle of scotch?

I am learning that diabetics can drink if they test their blood every hour or 2 and keep the fast acting insulin on hand.

Awesome weekend thanks: I was inspired by Rudy's post last week and found this: http://hairdoing.com/
I've been tracking it all weekend. You guys just haven't lived.

I'm only jokulating.

I went to a wedding and then camped out with a load of mates (and en ex I hadn't seen for 15 years and didn't recognise for 3 hours until prompted by someone else! I don't think she was too thrilled). Fire, chatting, booze, ...other things..., and then a thunder storm. cooooool.

You're supposed to recognise someone after 15 years?!

Is it a safe assumption that they knew exactly who you were from the moment they saw you?

This really sucks: my Bad Mutha is falling apart, maybe it's time to let it go?

Yup - she recognised me immediately. I have been fortunate to retain my boyish good looks so have not changed one iota from 15 years ago. She hadn't actually changed much but years of abuse has fried my memory. I only remember to post on here because I leave a post it note on my monitor.

Bad Muthas don't have wallets that are falling apart.

Fool! How can the text rub off when it's embossed on the leather?!

I've got my eye on you Flump.

Fool! http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/embossed They are debossed.

And when have I ever let facts get in the way of some comedy gold?

Oh and whoever (I believe it was Pat who first mentioned it) suggested wrapping up the gifts - a thank you to you!

My gift-wrapped presents went down very well
