OK... I'm done laughing and reading salient portions of your missive to Hubster. He always knows I'm reading your blog when I have to get up while I'm laughing and do the crab walk to the bathroom so I don't pee on my feet. (It doesn't always work.)

I want to say two things. First, when that guy pees in the snow, does it freeze? (You may decide which "what" I'm referring to.)

Second, I would have walked into the Kislings' yard, knocked on their door, and asked, "In lieu of donating money to your mission, would you please see that this gets to the Pagans for the Preservation and Restoration of Yule Society?"

I'm strange that way.

I'll bet that's the same company that spends hours mowing lawns, yet the grass never gets shorter.

Licking the pig, licking the pig, today we're gonna lick the pig ...

Sorry, this weird little song just popped into my head early on in this blog post.

Ok-first of all-you get snow removal on your block? I'm so jealous. My 60yo neighbor kindly walked up and down the street (not sidewalk) with his snowblower for several hours on christmas.
2nd, um, not to out you or anything-but isn't this your second experience with expired plates? Or am I mixing up the story of when you picked up your new car?
3rd-can I ask a really huge favor involving posting to my blog when I'm in China? I was going to ask you in person on tues, but then I remembered that pc is closed.
That's all. Except I've been cracking up over that billboard too, thanks for posting it! ~lmc

I like the song, Anna-Liza, only now it's stuck in my head like "my baby takes the morning train."

I pay an HOA what feels like an exorbitant amount of money for the ground-grooming services, Lisa. I'm guessing if you paid someone $135 a month, they might even do a better job.

Actually, that's a different car... the Saturn that I should've sold a year ago expired. You'd think it would've prompted me to check my other car. Didn't even think of it.

Email me at theAntiM AT comast DOT net and I could probably be induced to do a favour while you're in China.

A sports bar is closed on New Year's Day? Really?

Wow look at those lights! I'm still laughing at that sign. I'm not sure I would be encouraging people to roam around my yard.
