The girl at the drive up window saw my orange wrist band and asked if that "PeeWee" was still going on.

Sorry, I guess that was sorta rude of me, laughing at her that way. ...

I think it's only proper that you checked out the "PeeWee", O Great Shaman.  Thanks for the account.   8)

Hey there, Bud,

I am caught up on the last nine pages here...sorry I haven't been around much lately.  I liked the Loretta videos - I bought Van Lear Rose for Mom when it first came out a few years ago and it's damn good work for someone in their 70s.  I like Johnny Cash's last CD a whole lot too.

Much of my aversion to being here lately is election-related also.  I come in almost daily, read a few things, get annoyed, and log back out.  I know that theoretically I should be able to Ignore better, but I haven't figured it out yet.  November 5, 2008 can't get here fast enough to suit me, but I worry that the damage is done.  You might be onto something with respect to the divisiveness conspiracy theory.

I love the account of the powwow peewee.  Sounds like just the thing.

I just remembered that your colleague's non-knowledge of Alaska reminded me of something...

I was mailing a card to an inlaw in New Mexico from Estill Springs, TN and the post office guy kept insisting I needed foreign postage...I eventually just took it away from the counter and put it in the box outside.  ::)

Very sad. ???

Ain't it amazing how many Americans think New Mexico is a foreign country? I have a nephew who lives there and he is always encountering it. My own uncle even thinks it is a foreign country. I mean, it has its own quarter. They have zip codes there, didn't the guy at the post office have to take some kind of test to get his job?

New Mexico might not be a foreign country, but we know Texas is a world unto itself.  ;D
