Damn!! Sorry, I was cleaning the control panel on the VRWC (Vast Right Wing Conspiracy) *Earthquake Machine* and I accidentally pushed the *activate* button. I guess the *fail safe* still isn’t working correctly, we gotta get that looked at…
I’ll try to be more careful in the future, I thought we had it set for *Cali*, turns out it was *Arli*, damn, I HATE typos…
The pic and blogroll has been added to my sidebar.
cheers.
Huh - I didn’t know you had the controller this week.
Guess that’ll teach you to clean more carefully!
I ALWAYS have the MASTER Controller…
Is everyone running around in circles screaming and crying?
We sleep through them out here.
Most of that area is conservatives - they picked up, straightened up, and went about their business before FEMA even knew they’d had a quake…
Can I play with the buttons? PLEASE?
Well Kate, that depends…
Do WE get to play with *your* buttons??
ROFLMAO
Ya think maybe I should use a few gray cells before I type next time??? Heh.
When did this drop into the innuendo zone?
Yowsa!
Of course I *know* y’all are made of hearty stuff out there is Texas. I just couldn’t help trying to “poke the bear” (NO INNUENDO!)
(the bear being Fred of course….he is kinda mean and growly)
Yes I am, but I STILL like to play with *buttons*…
Stop doing that. You know it is supose to be pushed only if Obama wins. And then in the states that went blue.
It was an accident… Really… It was…
Saving the *BIG ONE* for San Fransissyco…
Damn Fred, you took the idea right from my head. If I ask nicely, can I get you to place the next epicenter directly under the University of California in Berkeley? I’d kind of like to leave the Golden Gate Bridge alone. . .
