I like that idea Matthew.  I used to love to talk on the phone but it is difficult to carry on a conversation when you keep saying "what".

My sentiments exactly:

Quote
If you have voicemail – as pretty much everyone does today – there is usually no reason to call back missed calls from numbers that you do not recognize, regardless of the area code from which they originated. If a caller has something important to say, he or she can leave a message identifying himself or herself (or send you a text message). Don’t let curiosity get the best of you.

I just got anEviction nticein my email from some law firm Littler.com but I really suspect it's some sort of phishing game. The email says:
You are hereby given notice that you are in breach of your tenancy of the premises you currently occupy.

To remedy the breach you have to quit the premises within the following four weeks.

If you fail to comply you will be physically removed and fined for up to 100 minimum monthly wages.

Detailed information is attached herewith.

ATKINSON Buchanan

So, the Big Question is, what the fat hell are they phishing for?

If you click on the attachment for details you may unleash something nasty in your computer

Be VERY careful

The automobile is back home, and I am only $114 poorer...so that makes me happy.

Boy did you luck out! :)

I need a dose of your luck.

I got to work a few minutes late to discover that only 3 others had actually even attempted the trip -  three others didn't even bother to try and they all live much closer than two of the three that wer not only in but in early

The boss rewarded  those of us that were in by offering to buy  and pick up lunch -  we called in our order and he set off

When he returned he announced we would all eat  lunch together  and then he was cleaning off all our cars and sending us home  as the parking lot had not been plowed and now was under 6 inches of  very heavy wet snow

He has a heavy SUV and had trouble managing to get out

Nearing the end of "Doctor Sleep." Really getting creeped out by some of this -- in the best way possible.

fortunately it seems  most people stayed home (all the schools and colleges were closed) and I slipped and slid all the way home without sliding into any one or anything

A story on DANCING WITH THE STARS dropping the large band led by Harold Wheeler, and replacing them with recorded music and a smaller band trying for a younger demographic

I decided to keep on  and went directly to the tire dept of the local BJ's where I found two very bored young men    I told them about my bald tires and they came out in the elements and agreed - they had the tires I needed in stock  and  while I enjoyed a Keurig Seattle rainforest coffee with hazelnut  creamer and read  a two month out of date entertainment weekly  they set me up with new front tires.

One of the young men told me about a special for $50 off 4 tires.  I asked him what he would recommend to his Mom -- he went out and looked at the rear tires and came back and said "Mom, those will last you a while longer and if you do decide to buy in the next couple of months come to me and I'll give you  the $50 off then"

Nice kid

They also cleaned all the ice and snow off the car completely and cleaned my windows and checked and corrected the tire pressure in the rear tires

I have noticed young men have been much nice to me since I let my hair go grey silver

I tipped them each $10 and they both tried to refuse but I insisted  and they seemed quite happy

I noticed the difference in the way the car was handling immediately I started driving again.

Well worth it!

IMHO, not a good move by the producers.
