8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 9

[magiroux]

If you don't mind me askin' ...

. ...... but what are you doin' with THIRTEEN CASES of Thin Mints in your trunk?

Oohhh... I think in googling an image I got my own answer. They're GIRL SCOUT Cookies! OK... never mind... <chuckles>​

Love your pitcure......

I am our troop's Cookie Mom and we are doing a Cookie Booth Sale tomorrow night. In the past this location has been known to sell out in a few hours, so I picked up a double order (40cases) and they have been in may car since Tuesday. The girls are trying to raise alot of money to take a trip to Great Wolf Lodge, but we only have 5 girls in our troop so we need to sell LOTS of cookies.

My nephew is in first grade. He's been having trouble in Math. DB and DSIL are also having trouble with the 2007 way to do simple math. So they ask Aunt Kathy if she could help. Aunt Kathy, having backround in chemistry, math and finance, figures how bad can "new math" be. OMG! What are they teaching? My nephew is telling me they have to estimated the answer. HUH!!!! Excuse me, I make drugs for a living. If I did a WAG on the amount of drug I needed in a product I would be shut down and in jail. What ever happened to memorizing the times tables?? Now I understand why cashiers cannot count back change anymore. Is this another sign that I'm getting old?

I told DS that we weren't allowed to use a calculator until college because it was considered cheating. He couldn't believe it because they are being taught to use them in 3rd grade for the EOG testing...he is 2nd grade but doing advanced math worksheets. I remember my first job cashiering...we weren't told how much change to give back & didn't scan anything. I had to enter the price and count it out myself.

Ok, I have a little time to ketchup on the fluff since I last checked in, so good evening, everyone.

Love It

Daryl Hannah and Julia Roberts are easy on the eyes, so that helps.

Perhaps the part he liked also

Congratulations! That is an accomplishment! I paid mine off a couple of years ago and the feeling is great.

That extra $300 a month really made a difference.

Just checking in. Hope everyone had a decent day.

What's even sadder is that I can remember most of the videos for them way back when MTV showed music videos. I love the bar-b-queing iguana scene from Mexican Radio.

Um...it's been a while since I have watched MTV but did they really stop showing music videos?
