walking out of the movie theater I found a .38 special hollow-point round (very similar to the .357 magnum except slightly larger caliber)...this did take me by surprise

A .38 cartridge will fit in a .357 magnum, believe it or not. Tight fit but you can fire it.
That sounds like an accident waiting to happen.
I was quite astonished at 5 am this morning to wake up on the couch, still in yesterday's clothes. Whaa ..? What happened to yesterday? The last I remember was a bit of Andrew Denton talking to Elton John on the ABC .... then nothing more till the tail end of an absolutely
astonishing movie when I woke up again: all these folk with boot polish on their shiny faces pretending to be Arabs. A very proper British fellow had somehow blundered into their tent camp & fallen in love with this young woman who had a haircut just like Cleopatra & they'd had a son and ..... It was rivetting! I just
had to see how it ended!
Soon I'm going to take a shower, change into some fresh clothes & face this freezing cold day. Am I disoriented, or what?
Bear and Squinney. I'm waiting for the punch line because this has got to be a joke.
Yesterday a colleague insisted that saturated fat is the good fat which was why he was eating lots of it. When we pointed out the error of his ways, he wondered if this was why he's overweight. Oy.

Oy and a half. Reminds me of my friend's husband. She found him shaking out the thermometer after he took his temperature! Then he read it. No fever! Some people just get stuff ass backwards.
Yes?
Are you going to say more about it Steve?
I may have just shot myself in the foot in a serious way, re my family.
Oy.
So, the background is that I get many fax calls a day. Well, once in a while none, sometimes a few, sometimes a lot, and some of them are late at night. I've had this phone for a while now, and they are somewhat diminishing in number, but, always always aggravating.
Plus, there are other calls of stupendous annoying potential, should I answer right off the bat.
The other information you need to know is that I do swear from time to time, and some of those times are when I do pick up the phone and it is a fax bleepysplat.
So, tonight I have kept my ear out for a phone call I would want to answer, and thus answered. BLAAAAAAAAAT. Squirrelly sounds. I say, clearly, Get the F*ck off my Telephone! and hang up.
Time passes.
I wonder,
Was that my cousin's voice amid the squirrelly sounds?
The cousin I'm slightly but not entirely estranged from, who I really do care about?
The cousin who particularly eschews swearing?
The cousin whom I've sworn in front of before, just... somehow, because she's so proper?
I fear it was.
I've already sent a semi-hemi funny (or not) email...
Sigh.
I see you were all silenced by the wonder of my predicament!
Well, I got an email back, and it wasn't my cousin's voice on the phone. Indeed, the email from her and her husband was hilarious and friendly, all family-lovey reassuring.
This will teach me to mind my manners though.
Or, will it?

"rectum? damn near killed him."
punchline for you ....smooch smooch...
Sorry Sugar. About every damn bit of it.
Ooooh!
I just noticed that I'm now a guru in training!
Well, fancy that!
...however I've just noticed that dlowan has 17548 posts more than me & she's
still only a G.I.T.!
Not to turn this into a politics thread, but to follow up on Letty's comment, I found this article informative on Warner -
Washington Post on Warner and his decision
I'd been planning one of the biggest changes to my life and expecting to break the news and start it all in a few weeks.
My hand was pushed today, and I'm about to jump off the cliff into thin air and see if I can pull it off. The thrill is on....
