And only accept type written originals, no carbon, no computer. Let'm try to find a typewriter. Now you know what happened to your admin application.

Was talking to the wife about Japan this morning. One thing I've noticed, with all the video I've seen, the coverage is much different from the last tsunami we watched on the tube. In the last one, bodies everywhere. In this one, nary a one. I guessing it's respect for the culture, at least I hope that's why.

1916 - U.S. President Woodrow Wilson sent 12,000 troops, under General Pershing, over the border of Mexico to pursue bandit Chirpoinyo Villa. The mission failed, Arizona was invaded.

Bad news Scott, thanks to the new Government regulations on power consumption, light bulbs, etc. you have to buy a new oven.

The instructions right at the start of ALL the forms state, "Type written originals are the only acceptable form of submission. Please use a blue ink pen when filling out all applications." That usually disqualifies 99% of them!

I never had one of those. I am NOT, by any stretch of the imagination, a cook. I was the only firefighter in the history of the fire service to be banned from a kitchen except to get something out of the refrigerator. It's probably due to my impatience and the theory I subscribe to that if something requires to be baked/cooked for 30 minutes at 250 degrees, it should be faster and more efficient to put it in for 15 minutes at 500 degrees.

Just consumed one of those overly large doughnuts left over from yesterday. I think it is talking to me. May not have been such a good idea especially with the little green coating that misplaced the sugar coating overnight.

Lots of new typewriters for sale down here, even at Costco or Sam's.

It is fascinating to me to walk downtown and see somebody sitting at a table with a typewriter in a public area. Lots of the older buildings have a covered patio and they are normally tucked away in one of the corners with just a small table and two chairs. Their job is the old fashioned scribe. They write letters or fill in official forms for the illiterate.

Why is it everyone messes with the ph00? Leave it alone and make the seal go play in the kiddy pool outside with Scotty.

Yep, that is your stack - - just waiting for you to grab one in a frantic attack. Oh it will be fun - - the auto camera is set to catch the action. ...

OK, caught up on all the antics - - gotta go do something useful, like get a tan in the lanai and water the orchids and make a carefully guarded cup of ph00 and relax in the warm sun and listen to birds sing and watch the seal in the pool - - -- ..........WHAT IS A STUPID SEAL DOING IN MY POOL? SOMEONE IS GOING TO PAY FOR THIS ONE. ..................................

Quit trying to pass the load with those swelled up overfilled UnDependables you keep leaving in the breakroom. You were the one telling me how cool it is to see your Depends swell up from soiling to over four times its original size. Twisted man...just twisted.

Now you are acting like you know nothing about your attempt at being a mini Sea World with our Seal in your pool. Stay out of the Lanai a bit Bobby, the heat is really getting to you.

Out of empathy and concern for Bobby and might as well include Stan, I blended up a special prune Phoo00 with some coffee grounds and in honor of the upcoming St Patty's Day I am also testing and evaluating the shades of green Seal [censored] mixed in with [censored]



pssst Bobby, those hand written XXXL's on your Depends were the giveaway.

How can you tell? That stuff is just so wrong it could be ANY flavor and the people that like it, (YOU!), would say, "Mmmm boy! That's good stuff!" You could have 'Dependaph00 Phlavor' and you'd think it was good. Coffee should only taste like COFFEE!

Your membership dues give you the privilege to obtain those forms and that's it!

I was surprised one of you people hadn't posted the video of the Israeli Boob getting bit by the snake. She deserved to get bitten on the nose. Too bad the snake died.
