Aprons or fishing poles etc.

In the past century, when I was growing up, the males were in their category and we females were in ours.  For whatever reason, I fell into the fishing pole one.  I am SO grateful!  Before I was a teenager, I walked through corn fields with the 'men' hunters carrying a loaded rifle.  Alright.  The safety was on.  I wandered through and visited with the mechanics at my dad's dealership on a regular basis.  So as a result, I more or less prefer talking to men.  Sitting around talking to (yawn) sorry, women,  doesn't always  (memories hang on) cut it for me.  So to all you women out there who might think I'm cuddling up to your husband, think again, I'm not, for real.  And yes to you doubting Thomases,  I can cook.  My children's most favorite supper (dinner)  came on one of the hottest evenings of the year.  They still remember.  I served Tin Roof Sundaes.  Seemed reasonable to me.  And if you're not sure about Tin Roof, look it up.................marge

Bugs Bunny

Growing up we watched for years what I now believe to be totally narcissistic behavior.  Oh what we weren't trained to see.  There were probably many more popular cartoon characters of his ilk.  Does anyone ever remember Bug Bunny doing anything that wasn't self serving?..............marge

Should I, could I would I.

I'd like to write a book.  If Sarah Palin can, perhaps I can too.  Things I've found out on the way to my blog.  Putting the word 'sex' in the label section will get more readers.  Now to see if it will work two times.  But I digress.   MY Christmas story (perhaps not a 'book'). will be about my 'Charlie Brown Christmas Tree'.  It won't have pretty lights on it but there will be a small spotlight for after dark.  It brings out the Christmas spirit in me.  It proclaims that size or number of ornaments are of little consequence.  I don't even have to keep looking at it.  I can close my eyes, see AND feel its beauty.  It is everything I want it to be.  No limitations and the wondrous feelings are endless.  The best part of a 'Charlie Brown Tree' is that anyone can get one and I heartily recommend you do.........marge

Why?

I've been watching the Spanx  ads on my computer.  I'm not sure how these wonderful body shaping underwears are a help to the 'average' person.  So far, every model appears to be a 'perfect 10'.  It would seem, they are definitely not in need of this product.  So why not use some of us 'averagers' to promote Spanx?  Would that make a fantastic selling point?  "Hey you 'averagers', want to look like a 'perfect 10'  Here's your chance..............marge

Boredom. Be grateful. Life could be worse.

I don't like being bored.  Its my fault if I am.  I get into trouble.  I see everyone's faults.  I not having any goes without saying.  How about our local radio and TV announcers.  Port Huron sounds like Porch Huron.  'i'psilanti  comes across as "yip'silanti.  The last I've probably spoken of before.  Traffic people saying take an 'alternate'.  I'm not great at english but I don't think a sentence should end sounding incomplete.  I think they're afraid to say 'route', not to be confused with 'rout', as not in 'Route 66'.  I'm sure I'll think of more later.  The day isn't over yet............marge
