I'm waiting for my Pizza Express to arrive. That chicken cutlet sub is going to be delicious - perhaps I should've eaten breakfast. I went and got my speeding ticket reduced today. I was offered a reduction to $75 or a court date some time in August. I was going to fight it, just to be difficut, but decided against it. Too much hassle, and I actually was speeding so I'll just have to cut my losses. In researching for the hearing, I came across some interesting web sites: The NMA has some tips on beating tickets, as well as links to speed trap sites.

Other sites I've come across: The National Enquirer site has the Mike Walker game from the Howard Stern show. For those not familiar, you get 4 gossip stories and have to pick the false one. It's a hoot. Also on Howard Stern, see AJ Benza hit stuttering John on a recent show. It ws excellent radio, but makes for damn fine TV too.

Bubble wrap is cool.

Blatant errors in movies or on TV are not!

Blixx and I just went a couple of rounds trying to plan out vacation time for the rest of the year. We have an opportunity to raft the first weekend of August, but we're going the third weekend so it seems redundant to me. I've told Blixx that he & Toad can go up if they want. We're also trying to get to see my friend SherBear in Florida at some point, perhaps in October, and plan something for the weekend of my birthday in September. We also wanted to plan to go to Acadia National Park in Maine again, but I'm not sure when we'll get around to it. Ug! Trying to make these plans makes my head hurt.

Nothing else to report really, except that I've heard that the most promising UniShippers sales rep left the company, essentially because the owners make promises that they can't deliver. No shyt! Speaking of shyt, JoJo sent this to me recently:

For some time many of us have wondered just who is Jack Schitt?

We find ourselves at a loss when someone says, "You don't know Jack Schitt!"
Well, thanks to my genealogy efforts, you can now respond in an intellectual way.

Jack Schitt is the only son of Awe Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O.Schitt, the owner of Needeep N. Schitt, Inc. They had one
son, Jack.

In turn, Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt. The deeply religious couple produced six children: Holy Schitt, Giva Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins Deap Schitt and Dip Schitt. Against her parents' objections, Deap Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school dropout.

After being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married Ted Sherlock, and, because her kids were living with them, she
wanted to keep her previous name. She was then known as Noe Schitt Sherlock.

Meanwhile, Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt, and they produced a son with a rather nervous disposition named Chicken Schitt. Two of the other six
children, Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, were inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony.
The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens nuptials.

The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Hoarse. Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from Italy
with his new Italian bride, Pisa Schitt. Now when someone says, "You don't know Jack Schitt," you can correct them.

Sincerely,
Crock O. Schitt

Into the future...
