   …Gosh. I’ll bet they discover that all those things were related!

   Around here, it was WAY weirder than ANYTHING you mentioned. We had the Democratic debate.

   That would be PAY FOR that homeless dudes britches

   And I don’t know what happened in my town today cause the Valley Of The Sun is a big ass place and all kinds of shit happens every day. So I just mind my own bizz. and try to stay out of trouble. Oh wait , one thing some dumb ass in a pick up doing who knows what ran me off the Hwy. onto the shoulder. Did I mention I drive an 18 wheeler.

   As for the strangeness in town I can’t say much like that happened. I stopped wetting myself in public months ago.

   The link of the day was a little disappointing. I was hoping to see Mandy lying between two 15 pound slices of bread, hold the onions. 🙁 That’s my kind of sandwich.

   I checked my bank account on Sunday to find $30 had been spent from my account without my knowledge at a website called Equine.com

   So I called, and found out that wasn’t the only suspicious activity on my account, someone had tried to make a purchase from Air France exceeding $5400 (an amount of money I can only dream of having one day).

   Later that day, I got two phone calls from ladies inquiring about a saddle I was supposedly selling online. So I went to the websites they mentioned, and sure enough, there were ads for a saddle there, with my name and cell phone number on them.

   Another ad went up yesterday on both sites. I’ve received about 8 calls since Sunday about these damn saddles that I know nothing about.

   :wtf:

   Something tells me a certain Jessica Fletcher is on her way from Cabot Cove, Maine right now, and will solve all this in about 42 minutes (if you skip the commercials).

   The news anchor woman IS the most likely suspect, but Jessica will ask the questions that the bumbling local police didn’t think of, and lead the real guilty party into a carefully-laid trap.

   As long as she doesn’t try and join the Zillagirls, I think you’ll find everything will be JUST FINE.

    I woke up to about 8 inches of wet, heavy snow in the driveway and about double that at the end dropped off as a gift from the Snowplow Gods. The forecast for today is calling for another inch or two of wet snow along with a mix of rain and freezing rain as temps hover around the freezing mark.

    In Toronto we would call that “a slow day in Kensington Market.” Except for the murder. We’re much too polite for that sort of thing.

    So maybe it not just Starbuck’s, (hope you got through last night’s early close OK). I’m beginning to think it may be the entire community of Royal Oak. Any strange urges Dave? :wtf:

    Hate to say it but none of that seems out of the ordinary these days. All you have to do is watch the local/national news and all of the above is matched or trumped. Now ….. IF people were nice to each other, helpful, lind, etc., them those indeed could be deemed strange days. Otherwise, the’re just odd or funny. Oh yeah, Steve C., your weather forecast is as gloomy as ours here.

    Nothing much happened in my small town except for a dog that got hit and killed by a truck. Thing is, no one much cared because he was a mean old dog that would go around biting people for no good reason. Such is life, I suppose …

    We had our choice between snow, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, or Republicans. I think we chose wisely.

    Yeah, you pretty much have to read a newspaper, turn on the radio or the news to find out if anything is happening outside your humble abode.

    Doofus! 😛 :kiss:

    Dave … we need an icon for mooning! I need to moon Zen!

    I’ve got my spurs and chaps, lets go for a ride.

    Seriously, i’ve had a burglary at my barn and lost 10 saddles. Is there any way you could send me a link or address so I can see what saddles they are selling? It’s a long shot but ya never know!!

33. Kristi

    29 February, 2008, 5:47 pm

    I would, Jack, but my phone number is on them and the last thing I need are more people calling me…one of them is a Roo-Hide cutting saddle, and the other is a Harris show saddle.
