Filthy computers here. A Malwarebytes run found and uprooted 1755 evil buggers on one PC.

I wish I could get her to switch to Macs.

Is that near the gall bladder? Maybe **Bobbio** can get a twofer while knife lady is in there.  
Confidential to **Cap’n** :  
Is it too late for design changes to shark-apult? Is it designed specifically for sharks or is it multi-animal? Or would it be easier to [armor](http://www.dudeiwantthat.com/gear/pets/cat-battle-armor.asp) the shark?

It doesn’t require surgery, but some hardcore muscle relaxers would be appreciated.

I had priogies for lunch. potato with broccoli and cheese.

Then I drove my mothers bf crazy by sitting at the table with them and giving him grief like he always gives me.

It’s a lovely 53 degrees outside, so why am I sitting inside on the puter?

**Spidey** , there is a reason we call it a Catapult. Firstly we train and equip them…

[http://airlinepilotguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/cat.jpg](http://airlinepilotguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/cat.jpg)

Then we send them off…

[http://www.digitaltrends.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/flying-cat.jpg](http://www.digitaltrends.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/flying-cat.jpg)

There is also this “new” method we have been working on but it requires a special diet…

This is still in the R&D phase but I thought it would interest you…

Ya know this got me to thinking…  
**Swampy** Do Not Read This Part

As much as I like the idea of launching SHARKS at Da Bears domicile, given his disposition, it might be more fun to assault him with PUSSIES :eek:😃

Mebbe I need to modify this…

[http://ww2today.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/katyusha.jpg](http://ww2today.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/katyusha.jpg)

**Swampy** , you can read again.

Happy Moanday all

Get better sickies and sories and I mean now damnit 😛

Nice to hear from you **Apes**

Cheers all

**Jim**

FYI East Coast tour begins Mar 12th, finally, I will post a linky soon in case any of you want to meet me and my insanity in person.

Welcome back **Apes**! Glad that you’re still with us and good to hear about your husband’s Pharm degree, yea! One of my cousins makes quilts; they are very beautiful but lots of hard work imho, so a great craft to take up, good luck with it. 🙂

**Rosie’s**.sig for anyone and everyone who needs it, including , apparently **Rosie** herself.

On the day that we celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King, I hope everyone can take a few moments to meditate on his message and inspiration.

It’s quiet and dry in ABQ - temps in the 50s but no precipitation. We do need some, desparately. Ah well!

Take care all, and I must admit, I’m sure glad I’m not in line for any snow!!! 😛

I knew it was too quiet.

Technical Thingies is laying-off again. I’m lucky enough to still have a job, but on Friday the guy who does purchasing for our Marine Services department is getting kicked to the curb with **Bobbio’s** gall bladder {by the way, good deal that. Should make things easier on you}. And since I’m the guy who fills in for him when he’s out (like last year during his wife’s illness), guess my workload just doubled. And he wasn’t even one of my minions.
