(I don't think the harmonicas come pre-flattened, though.)


That's fine - it just means you'll have to ride out on a quest to find Jack, so they can be flattened in the appropriate Brokeback manner!

I bought a bumper sticker today, not Brokeback-related:
"The rapture is not an exit strategy."

I'm a one-sticker-at-a-time woman, so that'll be it for a little while.

I was driving through a parking lot, so I could have been hallucinating. But there, on the car in front of me, I saw one of those bumper stickers that looks like an old Colorado license plate (green mountain sky line). Most of them say "Native" on them, but I could have sworn this one said "Brokeaholic."

I wonder if the person lives here in town (another one? in my town?). If I see the bumpersticker in town, I'm half inclined to stick a note (maybe a postcard) under the windshield wipers. ("Friend, saw your sticker and wondered if you lived in town. Drop me a line if you want, let me know if your here. - e-mail address" Except I wouldn't want to disappoint someone by 1) not resembling Jake Gyllenhaal in the least and 2) being the wrong gender. Maybe I should suggest coffee and cherry cake instead.)

Yes, I think that when in doubt... cherry cake and coffee are always the answers.  Plus, your note could include the BetterMost web address! :D

Amanda, does this mean that u are a Coloradoan? I always thought u were an Easterner!!! It would be a total dream if both u and Mel were Coloradoans (and confirm my feeling that Colorado is the highest [in every way] state in the nation!!!!)

Maybe we need to do a BetterMost BBM Bumper Sticker, although maybe not with a can of beans on it.  :)

Actually,  A "BetterMost Beans"  bumper sticker would get noticed by BBM fans.

I saw a mid-eighties Chrysler "Woody" convertible forsale on Ebay last year and it had a "VanDalay Industries" bumper sticker on it.   It was the same type of car driven by fictional SeinFeld character George Costanza in a few episodes.  He often told people he worked for the fictional "VanDalay Industries".   LOL

How about:

BetterMost Beans

Great when theres no Soup!

I kind of want one that says "If you can't stand it, you've gotta fix it."
That you can have already, from my shop http://www.cafepress.com/ahua/1182629 and the original ("If you can't fix it you gotta stand it") along with a variety of other BBMiana http://www.cafepress.com/ahua/1167379, though they're on almost everything you can think of BUT bumperstickers.

Hi there Front Ranger,

Thanks for the nice message, Friend. Sorry no, I'm not from Colorado.  I'm from Pennsylvania (and before that from Connecticut, and before that from Chicago).  I've actually only been to Denver once, and then only as a lay-over at the airport on the way to San Francisco.  For the record, I've never been to Wyoming or Texas either.  I certainly need to do some exploring in that region of the country.

I was merely commenting on the general idea of a BBM bumpersticker.

I came to Pennsylvania once for a rural economic development conference. I was very impressed by a dairy I visited with an ice cream store whose freezers ran off the methane energy from the cows. If you or any of my sister and fellow Brokies alight in Denver, I'll be glad to show you around!!

Oooo. I should get some of the custom stamps for writing letters to my congress-critters. :D

 :laugh: :laugh: I should get one that says: "In case of Rapture, can I have the water you've been using?"

Amanda: about the note. Yeah, that's what I was thinking. There are too many lonely people in the world to get someone's hopes up in vain.
Watch out. That poster has a low startle point.
