Pep,

On my way to Vegas baby! That plane you see flying over your house tomorrow morning will have me and W on it!

I'll put a buck down for you on lucky 7, but I know you won't mind if I keep the winnings! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

I still need to think about the panties thing...but I have a few hours still... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

All the best, neighbor!

HOPE is not a method

because

hoping the house will look clean doesn't work

hoping the predatory OM will stop bothering you has not worked in the past and will not work in the future

HOPE is not a method

because

hoping I lose weight while eating Ben & Jerry's ice cream has not proven to be effective

The safety of the rescuer has priority over the safety of the victim. ALWAYS.

.... a line that caught my eye ... from a book I am currently reading

My Sisters Keeper , by Jodi Picoult

My Sister's Keeper..one of my favorite novels...

Powerful..powerful story...

A lesson from the novel: Often its unclear whose actually the RESCUER and whose actually the VICTIM...


I made it happen..a joyful life..filled with peace, contentment, happiness and fabulocity.

Yeah, you're reading the book. You have to post what you think when you are done.

This is a public forum, I can antagonize all I want, I just can't be disrespectful, the rules say nothing about spoiling books. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Susan, what about when Kate falls into the well.
