humor: The WEATHER Made Them Do It! - 12/16/10 09:57 AM
With the wind chill factor being 2 below, and an actual temperature of 14 degrees, if one is not acclimated to the weather in the Midwest, they'd head for the nearest island in the South Pacific from just the THOUGHT of the frigid cold nearing it's way! 
Here, in Illinois, we adjust, for we have accepted the seasonal changes.  We don't get too alarmed listening to the news reports... it's expected!  Now, listen, if the *hawk went to Alabama, tempered with just a 'lil bit of snow.....  Hunnie, you'd get a vivid new meaning of some foods:  Namely "BREAD ROLLS" & MILK SHAKES!"  *("hawk" means the cold, blowing, stinging wind - in Chicago lingo)

OK, so the deal did NOT go through because at the last minute_________________________(YOU fill in the blank!)  You were tasting that money weren't you?  Your plans were to pay that bill, stock up on supplies, get someone a gift, etc....

humor: Squatter Moves In Rental House Without Security Deposit!! - 03/09/09 06:19 PM
We had not been notified in advance, and had not received a security deposit, rental payment, tenant application, or a current credit report!
