I know, I know, lots of affairs begin there. But you can't beat it for finding people.
Today my son got a message from his half-sister, the OC. It was touching. We haven't seen her for 22 years, because her mom moved to Georgia with her when she was 8. Here is the message -

Interesting! I have a similar good story about myspace. My 25 yr old son has alwsys had odd car problems ever since he has been driving. I have always suspected there is some mischief involved but never get a quite straight story. But I always get a sob story because he knows if I feel sorry enough, I will give him the money. He is now on about vehicle #5 since age 18. Since he ruined the first vehicle I bought him, I have made him work and buy his subsequent vehicles despite being in college. He ruins vehicles with weird problems like sand in the brakes, bent axles, ruined tire rods and other some such boy nonsense. He recently called me up and told me this sob story about how his axle had gone out on his Jeep and he didn't have the $300 to fix it. Guess what I found on his myspace? A picture of him and his friends FOUR-WHEELING in his JEEP at a "DOG PARTY." I no longer feel so bad that he had to work all weekend to earn the $300 to pay for that busted axle. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Mel,
The prius is a hybrid Toyota that Hollywood types think would save the Earth from global warming if everybody drove one. Al Gore likes them.

HEY!
We have environments here...otherwise the ENVIRONMENTALISTS I work with would wander off.
Believer...
How do you feel about this? I know you mentioned OC to me way back when...and she obviously remembers you...

Haven't you heard?? Silly boys, Jeeps are for girls!!
Mel..I have a Jeep. My Wrangler was padded and ready to go. Then my youngest DD's car seat got too big to fit in the back so I had to get a Liberty.
I still manage to hit every bump and hill and everything I can to make it feel like a Wrangler. sigh....
