 Panicking when her toddler swallowing a tiny magnet; my sister, Betty, rushed him to the emergency room.
 
 "He'll be fine," the doctor promised her. "The magnet should pass through his system in a day or two."
 
 "How will I be sure?" she pressed.
 
 "Well," the doctor suggested, "you could stick him on the refrigerator. When he falls off, you'll know."

 Good Sunday Morning to you Tony
 
 Just got back from dropping the girls off at Sunday school.  Figgin' cold out there.  WTF happened to March going out like a lamb?
 
 Things are a bit out of balance this year.
 
 I blame Dean.

				Good morning Native and Dave.
 
 Been wondering if you would get to surface this morning.  Inventory day?

				I'm not gonna lie, when I was looking over today's birthdays and before I read what it actuality said, the following two entries threw me for a loop:
 
 2334 - Beverly Crusher, Copernicus Luna, fictional doctor-Star Trek Next Gen
 2336 - Deanna Troi, Betazed, fictional counsellor-Star Trek Next Generation
 
 They did that one day last week and had me sctatching my head also. Good morning Tony.

				I got to work on getting this Fuk'n swimming pool cleaned up and going after the rain and barrage of oak leaves while we were gone.  Yard man has disappeared so got to deal with the yard and find another one, plenty around but hard to find one worth a crap and not overly expensive.

				Time to slowly tackle a few chores.  Have a great Sunday

 Thats why I prefer my pond over a swimming pool, all I have to do is spray the banks with weed killer.

 It might be a good idea to make yourself real scarce for the next couple of days, my blood pressure always went up when a woman told me she was going to be honest with her husband or her x. Good luck!

 There are a number of Torano's I've liked over the years, but the Noventa is not one of them.  I remember it being introduced with much fanfare and premium price, but tastes very ordinary to me.  Not a fan.

				interesting night. didn't worry about bikerlady's husband, you can imagine my surprise when her drunken brother, sister in law, and nephew showed up here to kick my ass. just left the biker (husband) to be honest and up front with him. I treated a friendship poorly and he didn't deserve that. bikerlady and I are still going to continue seeing each other.
