Remind me, if I'm ever on Mass and the OTS reporter shows up I'm going to say I'm a Satanic rocket scientist.
That guy must have been something.

Just had this one sent to me this morning Marion.
“Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting…
'..holy sh#t… what a ride!'”

marion, just like i posted under ronda's similar thread, you need to check out the book “the secret language of birthdays”. it is very fascinating and very much worth the time to track it down at the library, or even to go to borders and buy it.
i have the authors' names listed in my profile because i have the books under my favorites.

Sven,
It means I have reported YOUR postings to the RSPCA, the DAR, the John Birch Society and the AAA.
Heh, heh. Did I say that?
