Step 1: Get can of Lysol
Step 2: Walking into loo holding can of Lysol before you.
Step 3: Spray as you enter.
Step 4: Chant (loudly) "BEGONE THOU EVIL CORRUPTION!"
Step 5: Enter stall.
Step 6: Squat a'vouz.
Step 7: Make loud noises of relief as you void the bladder.
Step 8: Walk out with an ear to ear grin. Perhaps your boss will think you need a personal day off.

I can't help wondering how Eugene (Hank) is feeling this week about all this
'traditional' Irish hoopla. I suspect it's kind of how we Canadians feel when we meet someone from
another land that starts asking us about Mounties, beavers and maple syrup.

It's enough to make you want to toss your back bacon and Timmy's over the dorey with a flip of your
Sherwood.

Back to my igloo now.

We don't punch here. We kick.

If any font deserves to be lost and never found again (let alone used), it's this one. Woah!

I love Walmart for drawing people. So many people there seem to be in some kind of trance most of the time, moving slow. The nice thing about a DS is when you whip one out NOBODY suspects that you're doing anything other than playing a game. Certainly not the staff.

Though it can be a challenge to be drawing on a little screen while walking around.


damn you virgo! Every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes

Alas, the new forum censor doesn't substitute, just bleeps so we must pancake the old
fashioned way - manually. This pancaking tradition goes back to the very beginnings of the GDF so we
must pancake often and we must pancake well. You can pancake by yourself or with a partner. Sometimes a
group pancake will be in order, but pancake we must, it is a GDF signature.



So I'm laying on the bed watching a little TV. A hint of movement catches my eye so I look
to the right. There on my pillow about 6 inches from my head stands a big, hairy, menacing looking
spider about the size of a small kangaroo. Now I'm not exactly sure of the precise sequence of what
happened next but I think it went something like this. PSS (post spider sighting) -.01 seconds: I levitated a foot or so off of the bed. PSS - .03 seconds: Using a primitive form of telekinesis accessible only during a state of high adrenaline. I teleported myself to the other side of the room.

My two cats were sleeping peacefully at the foot of the bed at this time. They had no idea what was
going on but they figured anything that would cause me to teleport across the room had to be something
they would rather not face. They both did a feline version of levitation and exited the room in a full
blown panic. I quickly looked back at the bed and through a blue fog of obscenities I saw the bastard
scurry down behind the pillows. I grabbed a canoe paddle I keep handy for just such an occurrence and
leaped back to the bed. After 5 minutes or so of furious whacking, jabbing and stabbing I was sure
nothing could have survived. I couldn't find the corpse though. All I found was one severed spider leg. I know he is lurking down
there, somewhere behind the headboard and he's really pissed. He's just waiting for me too fall asleep.
I'll tell ya something, it's hard to sleep with one eye open and a canoe paddle cradled in your arms.


So inspired by this thread, the other thread on holiday advertising and Mr. O Riley, I
conducted my own survey. Here are the results, it has a margin of error of + or - 0%:

100% of people who are offended by someone wishing them a Merry Christmas, are idiots.
100% of people who are offended by casual exposure to a differing religious view, are idiots.
100% of people who choose whether to shop at a given store based on the phrasing of their holiday
advertising, are idiots.
100% of people who are offended by the Utah State Highway Patrols practice of placing white crosses at
the side of the road in places where patrolmen lost their lives in the line of duty, are idiots. (Yes
protest lawsuits against this are actually happening), and finally,
100% of people who don't think Bill O Riley is an idiot, are idiots.

Yay, Kittie! Good job filling in! And Kool, hope you're enjoying your well-deserved time off!

Happy Friday everyone! I'm working tonight and all day tomorrow, so Sunday will likely be a day of staying asleep for as long as I can, watching TV in bed for as long as possible, and after my bladder informs me that I finally must leave my comfy respite, I will retire to the couch and watch TV there for the remainder of the evening. Ahh, good times, good times. :D

Woot! Good job Kittie, you done Kool Proud!

Other than visiting the 'rents (and checking again on Mom's recovery after surgery last week), everything depends on the weather.

Yay, I'm glad Kool got some quote spotlight time! The spider and canoe paddle one still has me giggling.

Not sure what this weekend brings for me, it'll depend on weather. I'd like to get some work done in the yard, if the rain holds off. And Saturday night is geek ball, so that'll be interesting. Sunday will probably be rest.

Have a great weekend and happy St. Pat's to everyone! Slaintê!

P.S. - Bacon and boobies.

Staying outside all weekend. I don't care, rain, snow, sun. Tired of being in the house.
If the garden is thawed, planting onions. If the new garden area is thawed, digging that out to get a load of loam in there. I know the lake is thawed (never froze this year) so I may even wet a line. :)
If by some miracle they have the launch ramp open, the little boat is going IN.

:D .. thanks gang.

It brings new appreciation for what Kool does for us every week :)

.. and thank you for those who sent me some of those gems ;)

Nothing much going on here this weekend. I will be making my skirt to go with my new corset for the upcoming Masquerade Ball I am going to. I am soooo friggin' excited :D

I just got my Mask in the mail yesterday and it's awwwwwwesome!:p

Great post Red, thanks for covering for me. Those classics were classic :D

Mrs Kool took all our money with her so I don't have any big plans this weekend. I need to get the gas grill out and ready to start grilling again.

LOVED the spider-meets-man story. (Does EVERYONE keep a loaded oar beside their bed for such emergencies?)

Great job RKK! Kool, enjoy the break -- I can just picture you with a fresh plate of grilled brats, a six-pack or two (the kind you drink), plucking away on that sexy new Fender. Sounds... Kool!

My big weekend thrill? Going to see 'War Horse' the theatrical show in Toronto on Sunday with my family. Woohoo! As you may recall, my daughter's in her second year of a college theatrical production program and she can't wait either! The horse puppets are supposed to be absolutely spectacular.

And inspiring to my daughter. Who... by the way... is getting pretty durned skilled herself. Here's a snap of a recent props project, 'Zazu' (with interior wing/tail feather controls, head, tongue movement-- pretty neat!)

Well done RKK! :)
Thanks for still getting us our Friday goodness.

There is a bunch of things going on this weekend. Currently I can't really remember what the all were... i think a breakfast and some dinner. Hopefully I can get some sleep and relaxing in this weekend as I think my brain is just fried. it's odd.

Longest. Week. Ever.

It's beautiful outside, and the Flower and Garden Festival is in full bloom. We are checking out the Starship show tonight. But, alas, other than that, I will be spending the weekend inside. Have to finish sewing bags for my nieces so I can start packing.

Nicely done Red Kittie Kool!! Glad to see Kool get the recognition he deserves in the classics. The spider story was fantastic!!

I've been so busy today this is the first chance I've had to get on here. It's been a hell of a week. Next week will be much the same I think.

Have a great weekend gang! Can't wait to have some time to chill out a bit.
