Or maybe you shoulda married someone who can buy you a horse, like Tark.

Except, he's too cheap to buy you a horse.

In fact, he's too cheap to buy you a horse steak...

The key question and issue is, see man: Is Niki-B. a rubia, huh man?

Speaking of steaks. I saw a big ole ribeye slab at BJ's. It was beautiful....

It was talking to me....it said "eat me"....

I couldn't resist and bought it.

Now gonna dry age the thing for memorial day.

It spoke to Tiff and said "cook me," and she threw it out because she didn't know what it or its command was, sigh man.

It's snowing. AGAIN.... /sigh

Many degrees and massive humidity, Texas Many (degrees) Everywhere Else fewer man.

Mowed lawn and it nearly killed us, haven't fully recovered yet man.

Speaking of Poland, we haven't seen Asia in like weeks...

Absent Asia! Absent, ABSENT Asia!

I was here yesterday, you blind man :lol:

And you got it wrong - it's still April in Poland :P

Do not tease, mock, or intend to bamboozle the fearsome Asia, oj nie!

1. Here's a story of how Tiff scammed me

2. Or, according to stupid Tark

1. Stick a pin in the Malaysian Embassy for your infernal refund, overdue man.

2. According to stupid Tark who was smart enough not to marry Tiff, the same man...

There are those who, like Tark, that no one would look at here. And have to resort to other countries.

There are those who, like Tark, are over the hill, and want a young wife, and must resort to overseas.

Remember that she bought us cheap, :bonk: man.

And we are routinely ogled by rubias, whee man.

I wish I could do yard work! Stupid snow!

When we got back from errands, the Mrs.T-B.-mobile was gone, where she man.

This enabled access to the edger, underused man.

Rant, see man: Infernal edger should NOT require fresh gas in order to work, grrr man.

Infernal edger should NOT require endless priming in order to work, grrr man.

Infernal edger should NOT take Many pulls to start, ridiculous man.

Edged all pavement, noticeable difference man.

Then prophylactically mow-lawned, keep on weekly schedule man.

Humidity with no wind nearly killed us, no lie man.

Soaked Many (2+2) thick sweatbands, wring out man.

Has taken us hours to not completely recover, sigh and ouch man.

Nevertheless, no snow here, no and whee man.

And mosquitoes not prepared for full action yet, no bite us man.

GS report, see man:

Got on road a few minutes earlier than usual, promising man.

Dropped stuff at cleaners, well in time for same-day pickup man.

Then, it began to monsoon like an illegitimate male child, build an Ark man.

Made it to one hastily tarped/packed-up GS, disappointed hosts man.

Monsoon quit after half an hour, bright sunshine man.

However, next Many GSs phantom, including one advertised as "indoors," wimps man.

First actual GS yielded the following, see man:

-- 2 L/S shirts for Mini-B.; 2 summer shirts for MIni-B.'s to-be-visiting Ecu cousin = $Many

($2+1), deal man

Trip to Salvation Army yielded the following, everything in store half-price whee man:

-- huge Anchor Hocking "Vations" serving-dish with handles; 2 shirts; nearly full bottle of

Neutrogena toner = $Many ($2+2+1 + tax), steal man

Only itineraried ES yielded the following, see man:

-- 2 partial cans black pepper; pack of flexible straws; designer pillowcase; tube of Avon

hand-cream for Mrs. T-B. = $Many ($2+2+1+tax), deal man

We then ingested buffet, napped like an illegitimate male child, ran errands like an illegitimate male child, yardworked, dished/de-dished and dished/de-dished, warshed/baked/folded 2 loads, brushed cat, and at longest last sent complaint letter to former Visa Chief of illegitimate-male-child Guayaquil consulate (now a big shot elsewhere), Many (2x2x2) years in the brewing man.

On another topic, you order sake , you get a giant plate of raw onion with dried tuna flakes, ponzu ( vinegar),and mayonnaise as a side dish, at crappy bars...

Think I'm gonna puke

soon, but have to fit in sometimes

Hey Helen Keller....there's no fish in that meal. Except the preserved dishes. Nothing was eaten raw. It was cooked on the table grill.

And, that wasn't sake. It was Jinro.

Now, I highly recommend you take a trek over to Korea (south), and culture yourself a bit...
