That's because the p.c., liberal, kumbyah, powers made it not mandatory at the local levels..same as the combining of three presidents day into one so they could have a MLK day.

My roommate is the Devil.

trolls' bane · 10-11-2005, 09:19 PM

I know exactly what you mean. We had a man stay at our house (My mom and Ed's house, Sherman Oaks), just out of our mercy for the guy, who was living out of his van and was lucky to have lived to be 40 because he was so stupid. Well, he well overstayed his welcome, and finally ended up with the title of the Housepest rather than -guest.

Spock · 10-11-2005, 09:19 PM

and that makes you ??????

ahh, yes, the obvious.

ElemmÃrÃ« · 10-11-2005, 09:50 PM

It is making me sick to live in the same room as her. If I disappear, you can assume that I've died.

Spock · 10-11-2005, 09:53 PM

What a gorgeous day. What effulgent sunshine. It was a day of this sort the McGillicuddy brothers murdered their mother with an axe.

ElemmÃrÃ« · 10-11-2005, 10:00 PM

I love the support.

No... I'm more worried about me getting really, really sick because of this.

trolls' bane · 10-11-2005, 10:04 PM

Yep...Much is there that is not likeable about most people whom I don't know have stayed over there where this here was at the Albers St. House. Worse than Richie Jacobs AND James St. James.

***RÃan*** · 10-14-2005, 10:51 PM

Sorry about the roommate, ElemmÃ*rÃ«

I can guess it's a safe bet she doesn't appreciate Finrod!

Not a vent but an interesting observation - why do some people not bring something to do when they know they have to wait somewhere? I was at the orthodontist with my son, and I brought my crochet and a good book, and relaxed and enjoyed them both. A lady and her son walked in shortly after we did with nothing, and just sat and stared for at least 30 minutes until he got called in, at which point the lady sat and stared some more by herself. I always have a book or something with me - I wonder why some other people don't?

trolls' bane · 10-14-2005, 11:18 PM

Good point...I always try to have a book.

***Tessar*** · 10-14-2005, 11:33 PM

Some people don't mind it Ryan

.

I don't always bring something to 'do' because some times it's just fun to sit and think about... well... whatever you want to think about

Nooooooo!

They're changing the spelling again!

Whywhywhywhywhywhywhy?

Whose braindamaged idea was that!? Like they didn't mess up enough ten years ago?! WHY? WHY?

AndÃºril · 10-15-2005, 07:38 AM

What are we venting about again?
