I just soaked all of the plants so they won't die while I'm gone (though I'm sure some will). Naturally, it has just started to rain. Hard.

My Dad told me he took Elmer back to the store, but I found out years later they actually flushed him down the toilet. Don't ya just love euphemisms? Kid: Hey, where's Gramma?Dad: We took her back to the store. ...which reminds me of this joke:QuoteLenny went on vacation and asked Bobby to watch over his house. About a week later, Lenny calls home and asked "How's my cat?"Bobby hesitated and sadly told Lenny his cat died."What?! You shouldn't have broken the news to me like that! You should have done it slowly. The first time I called, you should have told me he was on the roof. The second time I called, you should have said there was no way to get him down. The third time I called, you should have told me that you tried to get him off the roof, but he fell down and died," explained Lenny.Bobby apologized and went about his day.About a week later, Lenny called again and asked "How's my Granny?"There was a long silence and then Bobby replied. "Well, she's on the roof."

The plumber and super have been in and out several times, running water in the kitchen sink, the bathroonm sink, and thetub to determine which pipe is the one leaking into the basement. KIt looks like I will be getting a new bathroom in the near future.

I think I had one of his LP's that makes the LP cover DR JMK posted yesterday look tame.....there wouldn't be enough red stickers to cover the naughty bits on display inside the gatefold.....

Well, you could have invited yourself along. The house, I hear, is plenty big. (Big enough, I hope, for me to have some privacy.)

I hope at some time along the way you have seen the movie it was a sequel to.....The Amazing Colossal Man.....featuring Miss June Kenney from Earth VS The Spider, and other classics.
We are happily ensconced in the Coon Rapids Best Western Plus. We had a stress-free flight and an easy time at the rental counter. We had a very small directional glitch with the GPS due to road construction but otherwise it was easy peasy. I just got up from a nap. The Ant is still sleeping. We may use the pool next. We also plan a trip to Wal-Mart to get some small toiletries that we couldn't get through Airline Security. I will use the Exercise Facility after dinner. We haven't decided yet if we're going to Applebee's or Baker's Square. It may be Baker's Square just because I used to love that place when I lived in Minnesota. It began as Poppin' Fresh (IIRC) and was actually a Pillsbury operated restaurant. Then it changed to Baker's Square. They made the best French Silk pie and the best Sour Cream Raisin pie.That's all for now. Later, gaters.
