    What Are You Reading

    My daughter just read it and did a book report that was in the format of trying to sell a screen play. We had a good time dripping red food color on the cover. I am only about a chapter into it but it is very intriguing. I already want to yell at the solicitor "go back, go back!" I just...

    If you said you looked like one celebrity from the Golden Era...

    The Courtship of Eddie's Father

    watergun assassin

    I had a very similar experience in high school, but it revolved around a speech and debate tournement. I ended up winning as well. If you wait around for everyone to be killed off and watch your back you only have to "kill" one person. Call em Mata Hari :p

    Hot August Nights I ran into a man that I had gone to school with from 7-11th grade. I think over that time frame we had crushes on each other but neither of us every did anything about it. I ran into him at a B-52's concert in August 2000 and we hit it off. We were having such a good time...
