Way too much shopping today for tomorrow's bash. I'm ready to lay back and put my feet up.
We get away with naming our baby just about anything we want (i.e. "Dweezil" or "LaShimba"), but in some countries the gubmint is telling you what you can and can't name your baby: (see Baby Dumpling ). It seems like a small freedom for new parents to make their baby PAY FOR THEIR WHOLE LIFE by giving them an unreasonable moniker.
We went to see "Knight and Day" tonight. I would give it a B-. Lots of action, but a few loose ends that make you wonder how they could leave that information out...
Stump and Mahtha
So it's time for the annual Skowhegan Fair again, and Stumpy and Martha are having their same old fight as they drive down from Bangor. We get away with naming our baby just about anything we want (i.e. "Dweezil" or "LaShimba"), but in some countries the gubmint is telling you what you can and can't name your baby: (see Baby Dumpling ). It seems like a small freedom for new parents to make their baby PAY FOR THEIR WHOLE LIFE by giving them an unreasonable moniker.
We went to see "Knight and Day" tonight. I would give it a B-. Lots of action, but a few loose ends that make you wonder how they could leave that information out...
Stump and Mahtha
"Mahtha, we ain't gettin an younga', and by gawd I'm gonna ride that airplane ride this yeah." Says Stumpy.
Martha replies, "Stumpy, that airplane ride costs ten dollahs. And ten dollahs is ten dollahs."
Stumpy says "By gawd I don't care!"
"Ten dollahs is ten dollahs..."
Stumpy, undeterred, drives right down to the airfield, where the pilot hears their arguing, "TEN DOLLAHS IS TEN DOLLAHS!"
He walks over and says "Folks, I tell you what. I'll give you the ride for FREE; but no talking... NOT a SOUND!! It's yours for free."
Stumpy and Martha agree, strap in, and the pilot proceeds to loop-d-loop, bank turn, climb, and dive at full throttle.
As he comes in to land he looks at Stumpy in the rearview, "THAT was incredible, all that and not a word from either of you!"
Stumps unbuckling his seatbelt, says, "Well, I ahlmost said somethin' when Mahtha fell out, but ten dollahs is ten dollahs..."
