Does this work only if the pool is in Vegas?

Also... this:

was hilarious. It reminded me of the Colin Quinn bit on Weekend Update commenting the Scientologists claim that they were being persecuted for their religious beliefs by the German government. He said that the official German response was "We're Germans. When we want to persecute you for your religious beliefs, you'll know."

It is the one-two punch. Penske as well. We're broad based with our sucking up.

Are you jealous? aww that's cute.

The back part of the hard wood floor vacuum head has a rubber strip that lowers. It doesn't form an airtight seal, but when the inner brush (which is softer for the hard wood floor attachment) spins, no dirt can escape from the back because the rubber piece forms a seal with the floor.

Oh, but you do. And if you're using the most powerful setting on a rug or something and you screw up and have it on the wrong height or whatever and it picks up the rug, you don't have to bend over to pull the rug off. You just slip a piece on the handle near your thumb down and the air comes in there, and the rug just drops off. It's like an auto tracheotomy feature.

Apropos of which, there were rumors a few days ago that the rehab program that former Rep. Foley checked into was run by the Scientologists. Anyone know more about this?

(IMHO, this post would belong on the PB but the Scientology angle keeps it here.)

I detest vacuuming and any kind of housework for that matter. It actually makes me angry to do it. As soon as I could afford to pay someone to do it for me, I did it. God, just thinking about vacuuming makes me feel like I want to hit something. I don't know why this is, and don't really want to go into therapy to find out. But there you go.

I guess this is a way of saying these posts are making my head hurt and I think I am just going to do the scroll by on them. Because you all wanted to know.

I know this will come as a shock to everyone, but I, too, pay someone to clean up after me.

However, sometimes it's a weekend and someone spills something, and I have to break out the vacuum and clean up after one of the kids or something, and I have to say, it's somewhat satisfying to pass the vacuum over the crumbs (or whatever) and have them magically disappear.

(I feel a little like GHWB expressing amazement at the automatic checkout thing at the grocery store.)

Our eyes met across the crowded hat store. I, a customer, and she, a coquettish haberdasher. Oh, I pursued and she withdrew, then she pursued and I withdrew, and so we danced. I burned for her, much like the burning during urination that I would experience soon afterwards.
