Ochlocracy in Action
I handle my own unruly pipes, thank you. It saves me a lot of money and makes my wife happy. She even helps once-in-awhile although usually only by holding the flashlight. Still, it frees up a hand.
Oh, wow, just too much to comment on, and it would all be about how this relates to my Columbus Day. I keep forgetting that this is *your* blog, and not my outlet for creative expressionism.
Thank goodness, though, that plumbers have finally come up with some underwear to deal with their crack problem.
Stoic: Wait a second, are you playing on a double meaning of the word "pipe" there? I hope so. Very boring comment abouthome improvement otherwise.
Kay-Z: As usual you have carte blanche to express yourself. As long as it doesn't rhyme or end with ((hugs)), you're OK.
If the Trail of Tears led to Cloris Leachman, then it was all worth it. Yeah, I said it, and I'll say it again. Nurse Diesel was worth one hundred flea infested buffalo robes.
hunh. you Californians really ARE crazy and liberal granola-eating treehuggers! in pennsylvania, we had Columbus Day off. (I say "we" but I always have Mondays off).
I'm actually mildly surprised your kids had school. This is interesting. But let's replace Columbus Day with another holiday, preferably one recognizing a non-genocidal event. you can never have too many days off from school.
((hugs))
Moi -
In Nevada, only the Feds and the banks had Columbus Day off. It could be argued that enough Californians (including me) have moved here to affect our legislation, but really, Nevada is the contrasting granola-hugging tree-munching state. We are, after all, the home to Bo Gritz and the Sagebrush Revolution. Viva la segunda enmienda!
Still, the kids get Halloween off from school. They *say* it's because it's Nevada Day, but *I* know it's because they don't want any Paganistic rituals interfering with their fundamentalist Christian creationistic teachings. Some people homeschool because there's not enough religion in the classroom, we homeschool because there's too much.
I digress. Clearly, I have issues.
I think we should have Leaf Erikson day off. Which, come to think of it, would probably fall on the same Monday in October as Columbus Day. Celebrate small pox or blood eagles! Your choice! Hinga dinga dargon!
KZ, your kids get Halloween off because it's on Saturday. (bada bing!) And you are the entire school administration, so I'd say you have a say in it.
Wha?! Essay, just how many alteregos do you have? I'll never be able to keep track of you, woman. You're the wind! So, like, 2.5 blogs, an RSS-feed that's not really an RSS-feed, and two different Facebook personalities? High maintenance. But so worth it.
And, humbled, actually no, I am not the school administration. It's a public school at home, on-line, and Bigfoot gets the honor of teaching. Which means, we get all the administrative BS, but none of the "you're going to hell because you don't go to my church" schoolyard BS.
I also get to correct the (school-supplied as opposed to marriage-supplied) teacher right away when she says fish are amphibians. Marriage-supplied teacher knows better than to mess with his zoologist wife when Linnean taxonomy is on the line.
So, since I've totally hijacked Lick's thread here, I'll just end with (((hugs))), but in muted capitulation to him, no rhyming.
you called him 'Lick'. heh heh
Kirby: Flea Infested Buffalo Robes... I think I saw them play at Coachella one year.
Toi: Well, we have several days off per year celebrating the momentous and historical event of Teacher Inservice. In fact, Teacher Inservice Day is the most widely and frequently celebrated event in the CA school calendar. Usually we have turkey.
Kay-Z: Wow, you weren't kidding. You lost me there at the end, but I appreciate garbled gibberish, so it worked. Hooba gleeba nork!
Essay: OK, WTF? Horale, I didn't know you were Mexican.
Kay-Z (x2): Thread hijacking is fine, just so long as we remember to throw me a mention in there, even if it's defamatory.
Essay (x2): At least she didn't follow it with "-hole-a" this time.
So sad. So sad. Who would have thought I would know something about pop culture that Pop's doesn't?

In his defense, however, I *did* misspell "durgen."
