Oooooh. These are the Christians who come to my house to tell me Jesus loves me. For the record, they never have a response to "I know, he was one of my tribe, remember?" either.

I have, on ocaission, pointed to the mezuzah hanging on my doorpost and said "See this? It's my ticket to hell."

I know this may be outable, but I need you to say it isnt so.

PLF was IMing me about something and I told him I visuallize you wearing a plaid suit He said you dont, just a lot of down and polypropolyene and white manpanties.

Is it true you dont wear plaid suits? this is blowing my mind.

A friend of mine recently told me about this site:

www.fantasyteevee.com

The premise is that you act as executive of a network, set your TV lineups, and compete against other networks. I was wondering if anybody on the FB was interested in a little friendly (or vicious, if you prefer) TV competition....

Don't worry BnB. We've still got until around Armageddon to actually repent before it becomes a permanent gig, right?

Sometimes the Kirby people can be useful. I've had them vacuum my floors several times.

So true. I've been tempted to have them do a demo like they offer each time, but the guys they send out look pretty creepy sometimes and there is no way I'm letting them in my house unless I have backup. -TL

I have yet to find a use for the witnesses, however. I wish that they wanted to show me how clean windows please god.

They mowed my lawn once. But they were Mormons and not JWs.

How about telling your eight-year-old daughter that she is dying of leukemia, shaving her head, giving her sleeping pills to make it appear she was receiving chemotherapy, making her wear a protective mask, and putting her in counseling to prepare for death, all to add a touch of realism to your scam to induce local businesses and individuals to donate $31,000 for your daughter's "treatment."

Hannah, who is now eight, has been placed in a foster home and is expected to require psychological treatment (the real kind) well into her adulthood.

That is so seriously fucked up, I don't think Satan could have dreamed it up. They should put them in the same cell as the guy who stomped Geoghan to death.

I'm a little more concerned about how PLF might know about the manpanty thing.

Incidentally, I have been on the TX no call lists since they began and my calls have been reduced to almost none - other than political calls and the occasional survey. I highly recommend it for the TX folks. If I could only get on a no-witness and no-door-to-door-Kirby-Vaccuum-Sales list, I would be on cloud nine. Someone somewhere senses that I not only need Jesus in my life, but that I need really clean floors in order to welcome him.

True confession time. Once upon a time, a long time ago, I was desperate for a summer job, and I answered one of those "Summer Jobs" flyers that get hung up all over college areas. The employer in question was the Public Interest Research Group, and they were launching a campaign about saving the wetlands in the Katy Prarie from the development of a Westside airport. It was an interesting coaltion. The NRA and Ducks Unlimited and the Sierra Club were all on board.

Anyhow, for one very hot, muggy summer, I went door to door at around dinner time asking people if they wanted to help save the wetlands, and while they were at it, did they want to join the Sierra Club. I had a little spiel I was supposed to give, and I was supposed to sell a certain number of memberships a day or week or something if I wanted to get paid. What I was doing was apparently constitutionally protected speech, because it was political advocacy, but I felt like a door to door salesman, and most people, especially those with the No Solicitations signs on their doors, didn't understand how I was any different than TexLex's vacuum people. I didn't make much money that summer. On the other hand, the Katy Prarie is still there and an airport isn't, so that's good.

Do they do laundry, too?

I'm getting worried about you, dear. Does your every conversation deal with me? I know I should be flattered, but, lord, woman, I am taken. Please move on. You make me fear for my rabbit.

(Rest easy. He was spoofing you. I wear nothing BUT plaid. Even the manpanties.)

That's the gig I had in college that I quit after a day and a half! Different good cause (it was in Rhode Island, can't remember the cause anymore). I couldn't bring myself to knock on the doors. Just lack that salesperson gene.

Some people, it seems, just shouldn't breed.
