Cracking Open The Buckeye to See What's Inside

I've been dealing with Aggies and Sooners since 1981. I gotta side with my Horns! For those of you who don't know, my Alma Mater, the Longhorns of the University of Texas @ Austin are going up to the Northern Province of Columbus, OH on Sept. 10 to crush Buckeye seeds under hoof. I hope someone... Sign in to see full entry.

Okay, I went and did it.

I signed up with EligibleGreeks.com. I know I'm not Greek by birth. But I am Antiochian Orthodox by faith and the Orthodox churches are very closely related. I want to find Orthodox single women, whether that is in my particular parish or halfway across the country. It is important to me to find... Sign in to see full entry.

'At-a-girl from the Ghost of Mengele

Shock and Incredulity are what I felt when hearing about Twisty Cats. There is a woman here in my own home state who deliberately breeds kittens with deformities. Here is a good page about the ethics of breeding deformities. Dogs and Cats are predators. They're domesticated, yes. We feed them and... Sign in to see full entry.

She's Leaving and There's Nothing I Can Do About It

In two days I am going to lose one of the best employees I have ever had. I understand why she's going and I know it's not personal, but GOD I'M GONNA MISS HER She's fun to be around, to laugh and joke with and she does a fantastic job. I'd hire her all over again if I could. She's been absolutely... Sign in to see full entry.

JUNK

Looks like it is time to replace the CD burner. I am going to have to stick a paperclip in the little hole. Not a good sign. Sign in to see full entry.

I finally made it to church yesterday

I was late. But I made it. At least I got there ahead of the Communion Surgical Strike Taskforce. That is the bunch that times their arrival about 7.3 minutes before the Chalice is brought out. Sign in to see full entry.

I Just Told A Filipina Chick She's Beautiful In Tagalog on Match.com

This woman popped up in my emailed matches. So I decided to put my vast (NOT!) knowledge of Tagalog to use. I learned a few phrases when I worked with some Filipinos in California back in 1990. I am interested to see what she says. I hope it isn't just "Magandang suerte," which literally means good... Sign in to see full entry.
