Posted: 06/09/06 - 13:59 Post subject: A funny thing happened on the way to the forum...
On my way to riff raff today several very funny things happened:
*I went to my step son's graduation ceremony. The valedictorian mispronounced two "big words" in her speech and another student who spoke called them the class of 2005!!! So much for the Maryland school systems!!!
* My mom is supposed to arrive tonight at 8 pm. She drove yesterday from KY to OH to pick up my grandma and her husband. This morning she was leaving OH to come to VA for a visit. Just about 20 minutes ago I got a call from her saying they had driven all the way to Columbus (3 hours away from my grandma's house) when they realized my grandma forgot her diabetes medicine so they turned around and drove BACK three hours to pick it up. Don't ask me why they didn't just call her doctor and have it phoned in to a pharmacy nearby!!
* I just now opened my mail and saw this advertisement that said "You need Peed for your water analysis. Are you sure you know what they are drinking?" There is a picture of a little girl taking a bath and drinking the water from the faucet. Man, if someone PEED in that water she is Sh!t out of luck! Would you want someone called PEED to check what you are drinking???
