I received a mutant "do you want to rebuild your mailbox" message from Eudora. The choices were "yes," "no" and "cancel." I didn't want to think about it, so I hit "cancel." Apparently the message should have read, "If you don't rebuild your mailbox now all the messages in your inbox will be... Sign in to see full entry.

Stupid Annoying Thing #7
I locked my phone! I have no idea how I did it! I guess I'm the stupid one today who annoyed tech support. But really! I guess I do know NOW how I did it: I pressed the "pound" key for too long.

I split my breeches! And I didn't even know it; one of the women at the stable warned me. I know why they split: I only have one pair, so I'm washing them all the time.

Songs that talk about rock and roll that are NOT, in any conceivable way on the planet earth, rock songs. A brick to Dobie Gray for writing "Drift Away" A cinderblock to Uncle Kracker for bringing it back A ton of wet cement to Bo Bice just for living A landslide for Jefferson Starship for "We Built...

Stupid Annoying Thing #1
Whose stupid idea was it to attach to the feet of an active toddler a pair of sandals that squeak like a dog toy with every step, and then let her run around a restaurant? What moron invented those shoes, and who is oblivious enough to buy them? Sign in to see full entry.
