There have been several places where I've read that "nobody reads blogs on the weekend", so they publish a throwaway post. Seems strange to me, why bother, when you could just skip a day? I sometimes have MORE readers on the weekend. Does that make me a weirdo? (I can hear the answer now... you ARE a weirdo, MC, but you can't blame it on your readers!) Maybe people who have no life attract other people who have no life. Que sera sera.Its been a month and two days since I lost the ability to load blogspot.com sites. Several of you have been so kind as the send me links to individual posts, which I cannot open. If you want me to read your posts, you'll have to copy and paste the text. Sorry. I'm happy to say that Blogger Help has finally ascertained that I am not a helpless idiot who doesn't know how to click a link, and they are giving me some real geek advice. I may be a tyro, but I can follow directions. I also rewired the phone system in my house, so pat this blonde on the back!
Thanks to Cheryl at Mad Baggage for the title of this post! Also, you may have noticed the quote at the top of the page. Or not, so look now. If you leave an overblown flattering comment, I may put yours up there. And wouldn't THAT be cause for celebration (pfft)! BTW, this post contains a topless picture of Mariah Carey. Since you've read this far, you deserve to know what's ahead.

One day a man came home from work earlier than usual and caught his wife in bed with his best friend. Enraged, the husband grabbed a gun and shot his friend to death.His wife said, "Ya' know, if you go on like this, you're going to lose ALL your friends."

ETHICS OR LOGIC?
You are driving down the road in your car on a wild, stormy night, when
you pass by a bus stop and you see three people waiting for a bus:
1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
2. An old friend who once saved your life.
3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.
Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing that there could only be one passenger in your car?
Think before you continue reading. This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application.
You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first. Or, you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect chance to pay him back. However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.
The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer. He simply answered: "I would give the car keys to my old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams.
Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations. Never forget to *"Think Outside of the Box."*
HOWEVER....The actual correct answer is to run the old lady over and put her out of her misery, have sex with the perfect partner on the hood of the car, then drive off with the old friend for a few beers...

Holy moley. I will say a prayer. Good for you. I will ask for the prayer back at some point in time...
An idea about the blogs: Sign up for Bloglines. It's an RSS feed aggregator, and for those folks who provide RSS feeds (like yours truly) you can actually read the posts there. You have to subscribe, but you can do it by hand (Add/type in URL/hit subscribe). It could keep you up on what's going on when you can't directly to the blogs...
Funny, I always pictured you with nicer boobs, but you dance pretty good.... :-)
Good luck on the smoking thing. I did that 25 years ago after being a three pack a day kid (I was a rough child) and never looked back.
Who says no one reads you on weekends? Great blog! Your humor seems a little more sardonic. Maybe it's your problems with the google blogs. I received an email from someone today who said he was having trouble loading my blog and others, and I was wondering if your problem was more widespread? Blogger is supposed to do a 2 hour maintenance today I think. Think that will help? WRT the smoking thing: you can do it. I, like Carl, was a three packer. I stopped in 1984. If he and I can quit, so can you. Good luck.
It is strange that you are unable to load blogspot.com. Just a thought.. but do you have a virus checker that has a network security option. I know I was having trouble opening my Google mail for awhile... but just had to set my software to accept the link.
Wishing you all the best with the "No Smoking". I did it four years ago and am living proof that it can be done. It is not easy.. but the freedom of not smoking is absolutely wonderful.
You are not a weirdo. You actually are a cute little Muglet.
DO quit smoking. I didn't quit in time. You don't want to be like me. No.
Oh, Missy: I finally got you linked at my site. Sry for the delay.
Ms.C ~ I quite smoking when you could buy a CARTON on Marlboro Reds for $1.99 I used my own form of aversion therapy. I put wheat germ tablets in an empty flip top box and carried then in my shrit pocket just like they were my smokes. And whenever I got the urge, I would eat one of those (NON-chewable tablets). They were NASTY, but it worked. I have not had another smoke in over 38 years now. It only took me a few days to get over wanting to reach for a smoke and have another NASTY wheat germ tablet. GOOD LUCK! If I can do it, anyone can! ~ jb///
Thank, guys! I need all the encouragement I can get. I had no idea I was surrounded by ex-smokers!
