Apropos of nothing, I now have a line from a Carly Simon song ("All I Want Is You," I think) running thru my head -- "what do the neighbors say/when they hear us scream at night?"

This amused me today, from Overheard in New York:

Kind of a Monthly Issue with Some Women
Guy: My roommate is such a pain in the ass. It's always something with her. She never stops complaining about something.
Girl: I know, same thing at my house.
Guy: She gets me so fed up it's like all i hear now is, "Wah wah, my pussy hurts."

Nope. I usually start suffering when the sap starts running. Spring skiing in Maine used to be a killer.

The snow had all melted by the time I left last night.

Tell her she can rent my kid for $250 a day. After 6 days of him pogoing at 5:00 AM like the kid in the "Drink More Water" McDonald's commericals, she'll have a new neighbor.

Chris Shelton - anger guy.

The Donald says - "He's got a problem," said Trump. "He's got an anger management problem. We talked about it on the show. He truly is an angry guy."
Trump said Shelton's fired-up temperament will again be on display during Thursday's episode. "By circumstance, it happens to involve Chris to a large extent," said Trump. "He has a very interesting time on the show."

This is probably his week.

And my favorite quote of the day
"At my insistence, I wanted it to be a one-hour finale," said Trump. "We ended up with a reunion and all of this nonsense. Nobody wants that. What they want is a finale where somebody gets fired."

Hi [ABBAKiss],

I need to let you know that I could hear everything last night. Unfortunately our walls are thin and I am a light sleeper. So I heard much more than I really ever want to hear. I can also hear your piano playing at 2:30am and when you come home with friends at 2am and party at your place. I wish I could sleep through anything, but I can't and I obviously need more sleep than you do. I'm not sure how you do it. We both have different lives and schedules, but we need to be able to live in the same building. So, I hope that this can be worked out and that you will just be aware that our walls are very thin.

[Upstairs Neighbor]

She just wants to be invited to the parties.

You need to convince commando boy to take one for the team and lay some pipe on her. Let her get him first. I am sure she will sleep better, then you can have him for hours.

Second, how the hell do you get flares (they said there were 30 flares on the field) into a soccer match? Do they not check you?
If I go to a Raiders game (the Niners don't care - they're just happy that someone came to the game), I have to leave my umbrella outside for someone to steal, I get a cursory pat-down, have to open my coat, and open my purse in order to get inside. Do they not do this at soccer games?

Ever seen a South American match? Flares are issued along with the tickets. There are alway flares and small fires in the stands at those matches.

In the US they are very strict at MSL and International matches. Everything but your ticket and the cash you need to buy overpriced food and drink is considered a dangerous item. Although they do let the booster club members to bring in their drums.

Back in the day an ex girlfriend started to make arrangements to lend me to a few of her friends who hadn't had it in a while. While the deal was never consumated, I can say that every man is up to that task.

I get a cursory pat down at Texans games, but I'm pretty sure that if I really wanted to get a flare in, I probably could. It never occured to me to try.

Listen, she was being very very nice about it. My former neighbors were a lot more verbal about ANY noise problems. She said twice that the walls were thin. Apparently something was said last night that set her off. Tell her that you're sorry about the noise and that you'll be more considerate in the future. And go to commando boy's house for a change. She'll appreciate the effort.
Count me in with the group who would have kicked your ass if you'd have played your piano at 2:30am on a work night.

As earlier expressed, the girl is not hot. She is blonde and petite but an utter tool and she has a glass eye. I think she is a virgin.

It would probably get you kicked out. But that's the real question - why?

Oh, and thanks for Sharper. I hope he's worth it.

Understood, but I maintain that Moonlight Sonata at 2:30 a.m. on perhaps four occasions since January is much better than a loudly barking dog 'round the clock. Did I mention I don't like animals?
