Well. we rolled on down the freeway to Wifey’s mother’s house today and just got back. So nothing productive on the home front for me today. Got loaned a bag full of Janet Evanovitch books though. That’s good. **Bobbio** , I think you meant “one of **Swampy** ’s **Crockpot** eyetalian chickens, maybe?” Although crackpot _might_ work too. I see why you’re not liking your job so much anymore, **Riggs**. I used to not like mine some much either, when I had one. Now, meh. Personally, I think that if the space-time continuim were working correctly, I (and all my pals) would be getting younger instead of older. I blame it on the Repubbycans. Or someone. I’ll try to get up early to read your OP **Swampy** , but I ain’t promissing nothing, "cause I’m **old** dammit! ---

Possums! I got a possum story. One night several years ago my doggie was out back, barking her fool head off. Incessant-like. So I went out there and look–and see a little animal on the ground. Oh no! Has she killed something? I take a closer look. Yes, it’s mightly still. Must be dead. It looks like a ferret! Someone’s poor ferret got loose and my dog killed it. I poke it with a stick. Its teeth bare slightly. Hm. Then: it dawns on me. It’s got a weasley little face. It looks dead, but apparently not. It’s a possum–_playing possum_. :smack: :rolleyes: In cleaning news here–I just put the final and eleventy-hundredth load for the week into the dryer. Everyone should have shirts/underwear/panties/socks for tomorrow. I can’t guarantee wrinkle-free but I CAN guarantee clean. Too bad buttermilk biscuits aren’t on the zone diet. I could reeeely go for one. ---

> [@FairyChatMom](#): > > Richard Harris, Robert Duvall, Shirley McLaine, and Sandra Bullock - and for the sensitive viewers among you, be prepared to see Richard Harris’ bare ass. :eek: I’ve seen something much worse–I was in a bookstore yesterday, and they had a picture of Buddy Hackett, wearing just a hat (it was over his crotch, but still, mostly nude Buddy Hackett :eek: ). I had to show my friends. They hate me now. It might be a while before they start speaking to me again. **swampy,** I waiting very (im)patiently for the MMP! I’m going out of town tomorrow, but I’ll have to wait until after the MMP to leave. Good thing it’s going to be early. **Cherry,** I’m with you on the buttermilk biscuits. I love biscuits, but I’m very good about not eating them too often. I could eat biscuits every day. I’ve never learned how to make biscuits, because I know if I could make them I’d eat them for every meal, and then I’d be as big as a house. MMmmmmmmmmm, biscuits! ---

I _will_ do eighty more crunches before bed, and also some weights. I _will_. Even though I am sleepy and want to go to bed. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mmp-bright-early-front-center/340207.md?page=20)
