Porter's Hot

Porter and I just got done with our walk...he's hot and laying on the wood floor to cool down. And don't forget drooling. Teehee!

The local paper has a fun little public soundoff area called Vox Populi. You have to know what's going on in the area to figure out some of the things tho. The Club Ice thing...a couple soldiers left the club and got shot by some dumba**. The firefighter thing? People are b*tching about the firefighters driving the engine to get lunch. Um, hey, what if you're cooking some fried chicken and the grease starts on fire...do you want the firemen to drop their sangwich and be able to jump in the engine or drop their sandwich, get in the car, drive back to the station, get their gear on, start the engine and then come to your grease fire? Everybody's got to eat!

What if this was your mom...Connie Chung sang a sign-off this weekend...how embarrassing. Click on today videos, Connie's singing sign-off. Oh good lord.

Last night we had supper with the neighbors! They're so nice. We decided it was time to bust open a bottle of champagne we received as a wedding gift from my sister. So here we are out on the back porch, enjoying the bubbly. It was quite delicious!


And here's Porter enjoying his share. Just kidding...it's water, we just got back from a walk and he was thirsty!


Let's see, what else is going on...oh YEAH! Greg got a job! :) He's going to be a Team Leader in the Parts Dept. at JCB. He starts monday 10:30-7:30...kind-of weird hours if you ask me...which means I'm going to have to walk home from work. But at least I have that option of walking home! We can put off getting a 2nd vehicle for a few months yet which will be nice. Save the environment right...and gas money! I said I should get a little scooter (59mph? hot dog!), but Greg thinks people drive too nutty around here. Hrumph. Anyways...got off the subject eh? We're happy and Greg's excited, but sad his "vacation" is coming to an end. Teehee! He should be able to still come home in July unless they're real sticklers...they've needed this position filled for awhile, so we'll see what happens.

I think I covered it all now! There'll be more to chat about when Greg starts working I'm sure.

Have a good rest of the week ya'll!

NOOOO NO Vespas! You'll kill yourself on a Vespa.

Consider, however, a Honda Elite 125. A MUCH better, easy to ride, more reliable scooter.

You should be able to pick one up used, cheap.

(btw, Craigslist has apparently NOT taken off in Georgia)

Sell it to Greg like this.

1984 Honda Elite. The bike Sarah Connor rode in Terminator 1

cute, lightweight, stylish, and it will help you when running from time travelling cyborgs hell-bent on your destruction.
