Sometimes he might forget to sweep the one that's already on his head aside, and that's probably why sometimes it looks like he has frontal curls ---may be the effect of two rugs, one on top of the other.Linda Davickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03660351950973083893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-70114084223981382532008-04-09T18:01:00.000-06:002008-04-09T18:01:00.000-06:00I just can't stop thinking about the hot turkey sa...I just can't stop thinking about the hot turkey sandwich--brings back such memories!

So we come home and I suggest we watch Keith Olbermann at 5. Jon says "Just turn it on, it's set for that." I turn it on, the big static storm. He comes in, "What did you do?" "Nothing, I just pressed on." Grabs a few remotes, hits a few buttons, there's Keith!<BR/><BR/>It would be even worse if airline pilots wore baseball caps turned around backwards, Jon pointed out.<BR/><BR/>We have a Verizon phone because we need to use it in Colorado. It has v-cast available (for a month) but we haven't used it yet. I won't be able to see Whinsey on it, Linda. So far it's just been an annoyance. Did you take it? Did you lose it? Where's it?<BR/><BR/>Namowal, couldn't understand the Spectre pic.
