I've had to make shit up for a gap in employment... Stupid isn't it, told the one guy I quit the previous job and took time off to relax and I had even moved(perfect time) so they didn't hire me... Guess a decade at previous gig meant i was flaky and prone to just quiting.

Woo hoo the wife found TP at a Lowes across town.... Some knockoff brand though. Stores here still have zero TP or paper products. Friend in Wyoming said their stores have plenty.

Went to Walgreens today to pick up a prescription refill. They were far better stocked on TP than either of our local supermarkets.

What? You guys have been consulting for me for months about all kinds of shit.

Just shoot me a pm explaining what you have been doing for me these last several months, and an e-mail where I can extoll the virtues of your incredibly valuable efforts.

All I ask for in return is a few beers if and when the opportunity presents itself. I'm not kidding. If they can go down a total bullshit road, so can we.

Good morning everyone! ........

Supposed to go and try to get my mule today and I wake up with gout, dammit! So it'll have to wait once again. What are you going to do......
