Yup, since he got into that religous thing he became a changed person.
Somebody said he was in a religion ng argueing with those folks but that had
to have been a year or more ago.

Denny and I tried to locate him with a couple of phone numbers and address's
but came up m/t. That was well over a year ago at least.
Thinking about it time wise, I'd venture he hasn't been heard from in 2
years at least.

Nate, did you and he do the birthday thing last year? I don't recall if he
responded.

Thing have been very quiet *here* lately too.  I was thinking, the other
person I haven't seen here since spring is Mike Simmons (he of the
heated seats, I believe).

And no conversations about White Castles, bunny suits, the
aforementioned heated seats, or The Machine.  What's with all this
on-topic posting, anyway?  :)

Hmmm... I don't know what went on with Mike.

As for the rabbit, he and "The Machine" are undoubtedly "joined" and are out
plowing snow.

I heard from him a week or so ago. He seems to be doing okay. Has his hands
full with grand kids and also his mom has had some issues that have kept him
occupied, although things seem to have stabilized.. He's just a busy guy.
I'll see if I can drag his wide ride out of the Castle long enough to drop
in.

Well Jodie, you asked for him and he finally graced us with his presence.

I'm sure it was painful and difficult to get out of the pink suit and away
from "the machine" long enough to post.

No, not peekin'. But I do know his wife won't let him in the house wearing
it. Seems something that big in pink, with those big floppy years scares the
heck out of the grand kids'

Notice now that your here he hasn't mentioned the cookies? Every email I get
from him has some portion devoted to him wanting those cookies that you
promised him. But now that he has a chance to plead his case, he wimps out.
I figure that is because he is surrounded by women at home, so he's
intimindated by ya.<BFG>

Probably more than you do since this old pudgy guy in a pink rabbit
suit can outshoot your lard-a.s any day of the week..  <VBG>

Hey Jodi, You're off the cookie hook for a couple of weeks... A couple
of neighbors pay with cookies/peach pie/ect to have their driveways
plowed and it snowed for a few hours yesterday. I'm good for a little
while...  <G>

It was a decent show but what  I got in my safe is outperforming my
401k by a longshot by the prices I saw today... I walked out of there
with a pair of sore feet and that was it...

Yada,yada. Wide ride,before you figure you can outshoot me I'd suggest
first, that you improve enogh to outshoot your wonderful daughter. She's
still beating your a.s isn't she?

I'm surprised. With the economy in the tank I thought price's would be real
low.

Nope, we got Dems in power.  And we got a bad economy which causes
higher crime rates as people get more desperate and the less morally
stable turn to crime.

Everyone who believes in the 2nd amendment and/or feel they need to
better protect what they have is buying guns in record quantity (and
getting concealed carry).  The gun show that we have here every couple
of months is absolutely packed. Supply and demand is driving gun prices
up instead of down.

In fact, my husband suspects the prices at the local gun *store* might
be better than what he saw at last weekend's show.

It *was* getting a bit boring in here.

For the moment, I'm way too near WDC.  No cookies, but finished off the
second half of a Cheesecake Factory Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake.

If yer getting too much of the white stuff, please, please drop some on
us here.  Every single east coast storm has gone north or south of us.
Sometimes by less than 50 miles.  I really miss the white stuff, and was
looking forward to an interesting winter.  Bah.

As much as I like snow I'm ready for spring. We had a couple of days
in the 50s and that started the spring fever big time. I looked at my
plow records for Jan. the other day and noticed that I spent 32 hrs
plowing. That's enough till next year... You can have the rest of it.

Yea, I just noticed.  I meant the second half of A PIECE of Cheesecake.
    Can't even eat a whole slice at one sitting, though it is mighty good.

I'm counting calories right now trying to avoid getting to the point
where I'll get stuck in chairs (no, I'm nowhere near that yet), if
you're trying to lose weight do NOT go to the Cheesecake Factory.  I
only ate HALF of what I got there, and it was still more calories than I
should eat in an entire *day*.

But, oh, they were very very tasty calories :)

Oh, I think being denied my warm, gooey, best-you've-ever-tasted
chocolate chip cookies will be enough.  You know I make them with dark
chocolate chips from a company I can't even pronounce?  I even use
vanilla paste now, rather than just plain 'ol vanilla extract.  Has
