Can we rent advertising space on your forehead like these various chuckleheads who got goldenpalace.com tattooed on their noggins?

PS Hey Annette: Ricardo says he doesn't have the appropriate plumbing to fully benefit from the medicinal advantages marshmallow peep sitting. So Ricardo thinks it would really just be a waste of a perfectly good peep, which could be far better used either for eating or for medical research.

Is that another 3rd person reference? (The Peeps research site is one of my favorites. Make sure you look at 'Risk Analysis' (under 'Peep Health')

[NoNo]

Hehehe, that's one of my favorite sites. As I am against tattoos, I'm going to have to say nay to the chucklehead route. Perhaps we can think of something else.

In the latest edition of "It Could Only Happen to Annette" I had a near-miss on my way to grandma's last night. I was nearly there when I noticed a truck backing out of a driveway. There was a car in front of me, but nobody behind me. The driveway was sloped, going down into the street. The truck looked like it was going a bit fast and I wondered if he saw us. The car in front of me made it by, but I realized that the truck was not stopping. So I hit the brakes and sure enough, the truck comes flying into the street. There was some plywood in the back, so the liftgate was down, and there was a man running behind the truck. I thought maybe he was trying to keep the wood from sliding out while the truck went down the hill. Then I looked at the end of the driveway, and there was a woman sitting on the ground. I see the guy run around the truck, hop behind the wheel, and park it. Now I'm thouroughly concerned, so I pull over and walk over to them. The woman was sobbing hysterically and appeared to be missing a shoe. Her finger was snapped back at the top knuckle; quite nasty-looking. The man said that the truck just started to roll and it knocked her over! He was calling an ambulance and said they should be ok, so I got back in the car and headed to grandma's. Naturally, the one day I'm driving the Lexus, I have cars flying at me from out of the blue. Fortunately, dinner was far more uneventful. Well, until we saw that Skinemax show in the "saved" file on my grandfather's On Demand listings. That made me want to vomit.

Ooh, damn, look at those messed up parentheses...

Yikes, Annette! (Both the truck and grandpa's 'Skinemax', and I'm kinda afraid to ask!)

It's entirely within the rhelm of possibility that he was just pushing buttons and landed on that. He gets confused and Comcast had just put in the new box with the new remote, chock full of extra buttons. That's probably the more likely scenario, but still, it sent shudders down the spine.

How about if we just use a sharpie instead? It sticks pretty good on skin, but it's not actually permanent, so you could periodically re-sell the same space. Kinda like a highway billboard. Just something to consider.

PS Got those snow tires on yet?

PPS So has anything leapt in front of your car today? Keep this up any your nickname will be crash.

PPPS Hey, grandpa has "needs" too...

Heh heh heh. Ever see the series "I'm Alan Partridge"? There's one great episode where he claims he was confused by the remote buttons and the hotel's PPV system, so he "accidentally" selected "Bangkok Chick-Boys" when he really meant to get "Driving Miss Daisy". Cracks me up every time...

Bwa-hahahaha! LMAO!

I think it's a realm with a rheostat.

[Grammar Police]

I can find no rhyme nor rheson to that.

Hehe.. the PPV things remind me of the time Jane took her parents to Vegas and paid their room bill as well as her own... There were several 'untitled' PPV movies listed. Jane asked her mother what that was about and was told "It was your father"!
Still, we shouldn't knock it - isn't that how Lord Winslow makes a living..? The back end equipment (oo-er) that is not the movies themselves... maybe I should shut up now...
