It is Written in Stone, or metal, or something

If you go to Epcot, check out our etching. Our pals Linda and John found it during their recent visit. Don't you think Andy looks a bit like a criminal here? That is nothing, you should see his passport photo.






This is the photo we took of the new bridge in Glasgow a week or so ago. It is often called the squinty bridge because from certain angles it is hard to see unless you squint your eyes a bit. The bridge is at an angle, the arch is at an angle, and the river is at yet another angle, so it has a strange visual effect.





The sun was setting as we crossed it, but I think the pic came out nice all the same. The bridge itself was actually a lot shorter than I thought it would be, but then again I am used to crossing the Erskine Bridge and the river is much wider over there.






The weather at night has gotten a lot colder of late. Kitty decided to put on his official Flagler College sweater and hang out for a while. Actually, his mean mother put this on him. I have to admit that this is first time I have ever put clothes on a cat that did not try to get out of them right away. He just chilled out and did not seem to mind. Do you think we should get him a halloween costume?

They DO make Trogdor baby clothes now. What costume do you think kitty should wear? Leave any suggestions in the comments section!

I have decided to include link suggestions in my blog instead of sending endless Emails to my pals everytime I see something funny or interesting. I lie. I may still do that as well. However, here are my suggestions for this issue:

In relation to the above Trogdor comment, please see: http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail58.html and/or http://www.homestarrunner.com/trogday.html play the game it is retrotastic.

Video of the week, my old pal Al is back with his Nerd tribute 'White and Nerdy'. Pay attention to the words as they may describe soneone you know (or YOU). I don't know which is funnier, the words or the fact that Donny Osmond is getting his freak on in the background. You can also see Seth Green for about 2 seconds.

Is it me or does the sweater on Manny resemble the sweater on RJ bear? They are not the same, are they?

You know, normally I destest those pet clothing items...but that is a cute picture.

Ugh..in unrelated news, I was just on hold with a customer and they were playing the old horrible song by I think Chicago (with our without Peter Cetera I dunno) I think the title is "If you leave me now (you take away the biggest part of me....)." Really cheesy and sappy...only thing missing is either the Karate Kid, or Sting and Rod Stewart (Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves anyone?).

Oh and a special freight related joke that only Kimberly will understand. I was just looking up a Schedule B Number...and while scrolling down the list, came across Schedule B# 8479.89.9895...which is "industrial vibrators". Wow...how many batteries does that thing run on, LMAO!!! Maybe it runs on a series of car batteries, like those low rider cars and their air shock systems that make them bounce...wait, that sounds like the effects from an industrial vibrator!! Oh, and on the radio the other day, someone played the Rocky Horror soundbite of "I see you shiver...with antici....pation..."

Slowly losing my mind, I think, LOL...

Karl, the funny part is that it is not really pet clothing, just the sweater on the bear that I have had since high school. I take it off of him once in a while and put it on whatever cat I happen to have at the time. Stuffins hated it and would walk backwards thru the house trying to back out of it. Manny seems not to care and hung out in it for quite a while.

Yeh, schedule Bs are fun ....that and customer names....still laughing at Debbie Does Cargo .....

Oh and I almost forgot...when they recently closed down the HDY location...some folks sent emcon messages saying goodbye.
One guy signed off with:

"So Long and Thanks for All the Fish!"
