Christmas....I hate this season....cant I just wake up and it be January.

 Gamble regarding one of their feminine products. She really gets rolling
 after the first paragraph. This was PC Magazine's 2007 Editors'
 Choice award-winner for the best letter sent via e-mail.
 
 Dear Mr. Thatcher,
 
 I have been a loyal user of your 'Always' maxi pads for over 20 years and I
 appreciate many of their features. Why, without the LeakGuard Core or
 Dri-Weave absorbency, I'd probably never go horseback riding or salsa
 dancing, and I'd certainly steer clear of running up and down the beach in
 tight, white shorts.
 
 But my favorite feature has to be your revolutionary Flexi-Wings. Kudos on
 being the only company smart enough to realize how crucial it is that maxi
 pads be aerodynamic. I can't tell you how safe and secure I feel each month
 knowing there's a little F-16 in my pants.
 
 Have you ever had a menstrual period, Mr. Thatcher? I'm guessing you
 haven't. Well, my time of the month is starting right now.
 As I type, I can already feel hormonal forces violently surging through my
 body. Just a few minutes from now, my body will adjust and I'll be
 transformed into what my husband likes to call 'an inbred hillbilly with
 knife skills.'
 
 Isn't the human body amazing?
 
 As Brand Manager in the Feminine-Hygiene Division, you've no doubt seen
 quite a bit of research on what exactly happens during your customer's
 monthly visits from 'Aunt Flo'. Therefore, you must know about the bloating,
 puffiness, and cramping we endure, and about our intense mood swings, crying
 jags, and out-of-control behavior. You surely realize it's a tough time for
 most women.
 
 The point is, sir, you of all people must realize that America is just
 crawling with homicidal maniacs in Capri pants... Which brings me to the
 reason for my letter. Last month, while in the throes of cramping so painful
 I wanted to reach inside my body and yank out my uterus, I opened an Always
 maxi-pad, and there, printed on the adhesive backing, were these words:
 'Have a Happy Period.'
 
 
 Are you f------ kidding me? What I mean is, does any part of your tiny
 middle-manager brain really think happiness - actual smiling, laughing
 happiness, is possible during a menstrual period? Did anything mentioned
 above sound the least bit pleasurable? Well, did it, James?
 FYI, unless you're some kind of sick S&M freak, there will never be anything
 'happy' about a day in which you have to jack yourself up on Motrin and
 Kahlua and lock yourself in your house just so you don't march down to the
 local Walgreen's armed with a hunting rifle and a sketchy plan to end your
 life in a blaze of glory.
 
 For the love of God, pull your head out, man! If you have to slap a moronic
 message on a maxi pad, wouldn't it make more sense to say something that's
 actually pertinent, like 'Put down the Hammer' or 'Vehicular Manslaughter is
 Wrong'.
 
 Sir, please inform your Accounting Department that, effective immediately,
 there will be an $8 drop in monthly profits, for I have chosen to take my
 maxi-pad business elsewhere. And though I will certainly miss your
 Flex-Wings, I will not for one minute miss your brand of condescending
 bullsh!t. And that's a promise I will keep.
 
 Always. . ..

Do Unto Others –

 

A man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, “Lord, I would like to know what heaven and hell are like.”

 

The Lord led the man to two doors.   He opened one of the doors and the man looked in.   In the middle of the room was a large round table.   In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the man's mouth water.   The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly.   They appeared to be famished.   They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms.   Although each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful, they could not get the spoon in their mouth because the handle was longer than their arm.

 

The man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.   The Lord said, “You have seen hell.”

 

They went to the next room and opened the door.   It was exactly the same as the first room.   There was the large round table with the large pot of stew, which made the man's mouth water.   The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking.

 

The man said, “I don't understand.”

 

“It is simple,” said the Lord.   “It requires but one skill.   You see, they have learned to feed each other.   The people in the other room, on the other hand, think only of themselves.”

 

 

“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”

Luke 6:31

I call myself a blurter.

SO yea,
Left work and almost ran into some good looking young men chatting by the back door...
I gave them my best 'HEY" smile and they smiled back at me...
I am thinking 'Yea, I still got it!'.
Then I saw I was still wearing my hair net.

NOTICE:  SIT UP/WAKE UP
This is IMPORTANT!!!
Okay, here goes.  There is going to be (well, we're working on it) a Xanga friends gathering in the next month in Salina, KS.  The following was posted by Grannyhummingbird:

If we were to try to get together in Salina, KS., in the next couple or three weeks, are there any of you interested, besides, Muzwah, SunnyC, and myself?   Does anyone know if there's a nice motel in which we could stay?   Restaurants near?   Would you want the weekend, or weekdays?      I would like to keep the weekend of the 4th clear, because I'd like to go to church with Redlegsix.   

Other dates, I'm open to.

Me again:  OKAY:  So far we have someone from CO, MO, IL........who else can come?  At this point in time Wil is the only male that I'm sure will come.  Of course he won't have much trouble adjusting to all females but know he would like to have a male to talk to and possibly go see sights that females might not enjoy. 

Within 20 miles is Abilene, KS with the Eisenhower Library/Museum, Old Town, etc.

As far as day of the week goes.....Tues, Wed, Thurs are always good for us....and because I said that ...........you know how it goes.

TUESDAY WEND AND THURSDAYS ARE GREAT FOR ME!!! ~Muzwah....

How fun!!!
