      Welcome to the slowest 4 hours of the day.

      Is that your house in the pick or just something you found?
      I've heard this "patience is a virtue" junk all my life. I'm happy to say I have no virtue, no scruples, and no desire to wait too long for anything. In my humble opinion instant gratification takes too long!

        Found out today that I have to get my wisdom teeth removed...really hope my medical insurance covers it because I don't have dental.

          Im lucky to make decent contact with the ball.
          I've gone to the batting cages to see whats wrong and I am always hitting the ball with the inside of my bat, getting that "jammed feeling."

          Been trying to fix it by choking up, standing further outside, etc. but nothing.

          I played baseball for 10 years, why can't I figure this out!
          I'm a bit late, but I think it sounds like you might be swinging too soon and extending your arms too soon. Maybe try and slow down. If you have to, add something to your stride to make your swing just a tad slower, but don't do something that will hurt your swing.

          And I love chapped lips.

              There is this show on MTV, it's hilarious, it's called Friendzone. I know, I know, MTV, but still, trust me, hilarious.

                I went to the Christmas parade last night and came home with more free office supplies than candy. Thank you Office Max...?

                    You know you live in a small town with very low crime, when you see car after car after car with their car doors unlocked in a store parking lot.

                    I think me and my wife are the only ones who locked their car doors out here.

                      Why are you checking to see if car doors are locked or not?

                        Well......if you are average grown man height, as you are walking and look down, you can see the latch sticking way up in the air through the window. Which you only see sticking that far up when the car door is unlocked. When the door is locked, that latch is down.

                        But being you are so short, you can't see over the car door as you are walking. In order for you to look through a car door window, you have to jump up. And for those 2 brief seconds up in the air, you feel like an average man, but then as you land back down, you let a sigh and say aweeee, I can't see anymore.

                        I bet you sit on a stack of phone books when you drive don't ya ? Get pulled over all the time because they think you are a 10 yr old boy joy riding. LOL

                        And BluenGold........since you liked his post.....

                          Still, though. Why are you looking in people's cars in the first place?

                            My friend and I once accidentally unlocked someone else's maroon Honda with his key . We sat down, I looked down and I said , "You don't drive an automatic."

                            ...we JUMPED out of the car. Re-locked it and then found his , lol

                              Just a habit I always had when I see a car that looks nice, it makes me take a more detailed look. Kind of like when you walk past a good looking woman, you turn around and look at her some more.

                              Grant it the most seen car in Vermont in my area are Suburau. However every once in a while you do see some Bentleys, Porches and Mercedes out here as well.

                                But I'm having some trouble this year. Here are the ones I've bookmarked so far:

                                Caffeinated Soap
                                Canned Unicorn Meat - actually a plush dismembered unicorn
                                Unicorn Chopsticks
                                Lunch Lady Action Figure

                                Our gift limit is 15 dollars, so that's kind of tough. Which should I pick? Any ideas?
                                Caffeinated soap . . . . .

                                And like everyone else, I like the canned unicorn meat. Do the pieces have velcro or snaps on them so it can be reassembled once taken out of the can?
