2nd O.T.H.(TM)

I'd like that song - just that song, repeated over and over, on a cd. Then I'll play it. 24/7. Toolin' around in my little red Corvette.

You know, I used to have a red Camaro. Before you get too impressed, it was a V6 so it was all show, no go. I like the Dead Milkmen's song "B!tch!n' Camaro" alot, but I don't think I ever played that song while driving my Camaro. Go figure.

Which reminds me, why don't they write songs about cars like, say, a Subaru Legacy wagon? Hmmm, maybe I'll get my musical career going with stuff like that. I play an awesome cowbell!

In the words of THE Bruce Dickinson, " I need more cowbell, I gotta have more cowbell!!!"

I dated this guy in high school who had a blue, not so *****in, Camaro. That thing was no show, no go - just like its' owner.

Here's my first attempt at a song about a Subaru Legacy wagon.

Sung to the tune (sorta) of "Red Hooded Sweatshirt" by Adam Sandler
(and my sincerest apologies if he happens to read this)

We bought you when I was just 34,
the SNAZZIEST seafoam-green Subaru in the dealership and we drove you out the door.
We got a cargo net so stuff wouldn’t fall out,
"This car sucks" our kids would shout.
But we stuck together, we didn't quit,
and now the children say, "What a perfect fit."

I love you Suuuuuubaru Wagon
Legacy Waaaaagon
Suuuuuubaru
dip dip dip
Suuuuuubaru
shama lama ding dong
Suuuuuubaru

I like to rest my right footsie on your little ‘dead pedal’,
it makes it feel comfy on very long trips-idal.
And I don't care if the weather's raining diapers,
I say "See you later rain" as I start the intermittent wipers.
Remember that long trip when KAMommy needed a nap?
She rested her head on GoofyDad's lap. (heh heh)

I love you Suuuuuubaru Wagon
Legacy Waaaaagon
Suuuuuubaru
dip dip dip Suuuuuubaru
shama lama ding dong
Suuuuuubaru


Oh what is it about you that makes me so funky?,
Is it your extra DC socket or your optional Trunk Monkey? (dealer option)

I don't knoooooooww
ohh ohh hoo hoo hoo.

Oh Subaru Legacy Wagon we been through a lot together
like that time we went to Krystal after a lil' napper,
I ate three juicy doubles and fries and a Diet Coke
and went home to visit the crapper.
I was midway through the ‘quality time’ and then I saw you looking at me.
…(Here’s where I need some help)…


I love you Suuuuuubaru Wagon
Legacy Waaaaagon
Suuuuuubaru
dip dip dip Suuuuuubaru
shama lama ding dong
Suuuuuubaru

I love you Suuuuuubaru Wagon
Legacy Waaaaagon
Suuuuuubaru
dip dip dip Suuuuuubaru
shama lama ding dong
Suuuuuubaru

I love you sooooooooooo.

I was thinking of singing it like Louis Armstrong. I'm about as white a guy as they come, but for some reason I can sing like Louis Armstrong.

Also, when I have a cold, I can do a passable likeness of Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam.

Go figure.

I've let our UPS, FedEx, and mailman know to expect lots of incoming packages for me (dues). I'll give y'all until midnight (EST).

Remember, Victory Red or Velocity Yellow for my Z06. Black would be fine, too. I like black cars.

I didn't know a person could actually be proud of driving a station wagon. DH keeps threatening me with a mini-van - it's just more practical he says.

You haven't received my dues yet? What's up with that?

I'm having a toga party. Anybody want to come?

 

[DISUNC]

Do you think Judge Judy is a DIS member???
YEAHHHHHHHHHH I got the BarBQue gas tank filled!
My 12 year old dis neph made me play the Powerball for him today!!!

I'll go to the toga party with you

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

Wow, thats early. Where are you from?

Louisiana. They start back August 14.

 

[sugarpie]

I'll go to the toga party with you

Wow!!! You're like way too cute for my DH's drunken slobs of friends, but you're more than welcome, anyway.

We're having a party, and we're trying to come up with a theme. We usually have a Halloween costume party, but we've been going to DW during Halloween the last couple of years. DH wants to have a bad beer party - everyone brings a six-pack of the worst/cheapest/most repulsive beer you can find, and everyone randomly picks a beer out of a tub of ice. No picking the least disgusting beer, you get what you get. It does not sound like my cup of tea. I do not want to clean up bad beer vomit!

Sounds... intriguing.

Our worst Halloween party we ever threw was the time we showed "Rocky Horror Picture Show", and we had a Baptist preacher in attendance. Ahhh, good times.



Dues... People, this is not JUST about me. This is for the good of The Cause. Plus, I gots a WDW trip coming up soon, and a lil' extra scratch goes a long way, yaknowuhI'msayin'?

Togas... Heh. I like togas. I really like togas.



This exact time next week, we should be cruising well past Atlanta on our way to the World. We have ressies at Rainforest in Downtown Disney for late that afternoon. How come you can't get a good manatee steak?

Time to go clean out my ears!

By the way, me & KAMommy drive in to work together almost every day. We both work in downtown Knoxville, about 3 blocks away from each other. Anyways... We usually swing through McDonalds every morning for biscuits and cokes for the 30-45 minute drive. I think the McDrive-Thru Lady(TM) has a crush on me. She comments about my hair (or lack thereof), that sort of thing - KAMommy's in the passenger seat every time. This morning, McDrive-Thru Lady(TM) gave me an extra cup of ice. Didn't ask for it, have NEVER asked for an extra cup of ice... KAMommy thinks it's muy funny. I have a sneaking suspicion that I'll be hearing about it for a long time. She works with "StitchIsARedSoxFan" (who is also going with us to WDW next week, along with "StitchIsOurHero", who is his wifey-poo). I think they're Stitch fans or sumthin'. I hear there's medication you can take for that now. Anyways, SIARSF has already emailed me this morning about my pimpin' ways.

Wow, you can be had for a cup of ice??? Don't sell yourself short, Master Going to the World....I'm so jealous Ohh, look...monkeys

I'm holding out for a McRib. That's what I'm talkin' about!

The cool thing is that I have something on StitchIsARedSoxFan. His wife, StitchIsOurHero, is a guidance counselor at an area high school. The retired principal of that high school hits on him whenever there's a school event that he attends - and he attends a LOT of them. I think she's (the retired principal, not StitchIsOurHero who hasn't even seen 3-0 yet) been with the school system since Daniel Boone & Sam Houston were students there. Ever seen the landlady from "Kingpin"? That's what it reminds me of...

And those AREN'T monkeys. Remember: bright blue butt = baboon

 

[L107ANGEL]

You are too funny Pinto

 

[sugarpie]

You're still expecting our dues, PintoMaster, when you're getting all the free ice you can handle at MickeyD's? That is greed, sir. Pure greed. Is your girlfriend hot, by the way? She sort of sounds like she has "special needs"

My dimwitted husband let the city property assessor into our house this morning at 7:00 a.m., and I am still quite displeased with him. They're re-assessing the whole suburb we live in, but we had discussed it and decided we weren't going to let them inside the house, which is perfectly within our rights. When we bought the house 4 years ago it was unfinished, and we've now finished off another 2,000 sq. ft. (without a building permit ), doubling the square footage.

So I'm standing in the bathroom, in a towel, and hello here's a stranger in my house. He had talked his way into the house! And he wanted to discuss how we really needed to cooperate and let him look around, because he was going to have to come up with a # and if we didn't let him look inside the house we would be giving up our rights to a re-re-assessment. (If we didn't agree with the # he came up with)

This guy thinks my taxes will actually go down when they've re-assessed the whole city and brought everything up to fair market value. I don't know.

Sorry for the rant, but I hate to have conversations about money with strangers while I'm standing half naked in my bedroom. I need a drink. What is the official adult beverage of choice, again?

Have a great day!!!

So,standing half naked in your bedroom with a stranger discussing money is easier with a drink?

It is NOT greed. It IS for the betterment of The Cause. Greed would be "Give me $1,000,000.00 (pinky by the mouth) or God will strike me down next Tuesday". Have I done that? Heck no. I'd arrange for God to strike me down sometime after June 9th, when we get back from the World. But wait, that wouldn't work - cuz we have an October trip preplanned. So I'd say something like "blah blah blah...strike me down on November 7th, 2006." It wouldn't change The Cause in any case.

Actually, no, she's not hot. She's got about 10 years and 20 pounds on me - and I'm neither young (36 y.o. and change) nor skinny (180lb. and change). She's not 'special needs' as far as I know.

She is just friendly, overly or not?
Maybe that we've frequented that one particular McD for 5+ years now?
Or maybe I am just a HOTTIE, starting to come into it in my own time, like Harrison Ford or Paul Newman - no matter how old, balding, paunchy, or sunburned I may be.

I have this nasty tanning-bed sunburn, and my skin is peeling right now. The theory is I'd rather be burned, peeling and miserable while working, rather than on vacation. Think of it as a preemptive sunburn. Anyway, it's not to the point I need to wear a ballcap to keep from grossing people out, but the peeling is apparant on my forehead and on my arms, and I'm still a little red.

Back to your point... As an architect, I know what the repercussions of not permitting would be WHILE the work is underway - but a year or years after the fact?! Most municipalities don't sweat the small residential remodeling permits and couldn't really care less. Bigger fish to fry, and all that... Was it interior work? If there was some exterior work, and your neighborhood / development has design regulations you may have some trouble for non-compliant stuff. Most of the time, as long as it's not butt-ugly or blatantly against the regs there's no problems.

The towel incident - did you catch that on video? I'd probably accept that as dues. I mean, you're hot, right?

The official drink is an Irish Car Bomb (to go with our stated revolutionary tendencies). I don't REALLY like the taste/texture of 'em, but we must make sacrifices for The Cause... I mean, what self-respecting revolutionary movement has an umbrella drink as their official drink?!? Basically, it's a mix shot (half & half) of Bailey's Irish Creme & Jameson's Irish Whiskey in a shot glass. Depth-charge that shot glass into a pint of Guinness, and chug away. The whiskey/Irish cream mixes with the Guinness and if you don't drink it fast enough it makes a Guinness milkshake.

Of course it is

 

[magicmirror]

Gosh, alot has happened while I was away. Hmmm, and to think, that I thought the world actually revolved around me. Seems I was wrong.
HI PINTOS!!!

Pinto Dad, I was thinking you could actually wave the fee for a select few of us who joined the group early. You know? With that system the next person, and so on, would have to pay. We would be grandfathered in, so to speak.
And, I was also thinking, as others join and pay we should split the proceeds. So, what do ya think?? Deal or No Deal?? Of course you would naturally get the biggest chunk, since you are the biggest bean, I mean Pinto. (Everytime I see "Pinto" I think "bean", I gotta work on that)

 

[sugarpie]

Most everything done in my bedroom must be done with a drink, actually!

I've had my adult beverage, but I'm afraid I had neither the ingredients nor the desire to drink the official drink. I settled for a beer. I may have another one later, it was quiet good.

I got our MNSSHP tickets in the mail today! Now I need to come up with some costumes.

Oh, my dues ..... you haven't received them yet? Bummer.

 

[Cantw8]

I have a machete stuck in my head..it was a bizzare coconut slashing gone awry What should I do, Dis friends I can't call 911 because I can't see to dial the number as the blood flow seems to be trickling into my eyes at an alarming rate Do you think if I patch the giant gash with my mother-in-law's mashed potatoes I'll be alright? Please advice, I feel faint

 

[magicmirror]

Relax Cantw8, try the mashed potatoes, at least they should slow the flow enough for you to dial the phone.
I've had my drink too, screwdriver, its all I had, and they are quite tasty.
How are we gonna get out of paying those dues, shhhh, whisper. PintoDad (octopus-sixto-niner- I can't keep all that straight) is always listening....
