Myrl Jeffcoat and Talk Like a Pirate Day in Sacramento

I told Myrl Jeffcoat at lunch yesterday that she's going to surpass me for the number one Active Rain position in Sacramento. We were celebrating International Talk Like a Pirate Day but it was more like Talk With Your Mouth Full because we were very hungry. When you're really hungry, the place to go in Land Park is The China Buffet. Row after row of delightful offerings from minature apple pies to fried chicken or steamed dumplings. I'm particularly fond of the shrimp seafood and the sauteed mushrooms, but the sushi is OK, too. Just don't eat the chocolate cake because it tastes like stryofoam.

Myrl was astonished to hear that she will be moving into the number one position. She says she doesn't even post every day like I do but she posts more comments than I do. She is consistent. So, we will soon trade places. And I don't mind being in the number 2 position. I don't even care if I'm number 10 as long as I am visible.

Although, yesterday, after lunch with Myrl, it would have been a good idea to be invisible. You see, Myrl stuck her head into a bar where a biker was drinking at noon and started yelling at him.

So much fun to hang out with people who aren't afraid to challenge anyone. But you never told us the outcome with Myrl... did the biker come and move his/her bike?

You know, Elizabeth, after you said that about points, I came home and checked the numbers. I found you are clearly more than 50,000 ahead of me. Also, I don't want the #1 position in Sacramento, because folks would expect me to do something really spectacular, and I'm not ready for that much attention. . .LOL Seriously, 50,000 is a lot of points. I suspectI will simply go on vacation if I get that close to you! My only problem is I'm addicted to ActiveRain. I've been working on my addiction a little at a time. I no longer post every day like I did in the beginning years. My other alternative is to pinch you, so you comment more:-) No matter what however, I will treasure those darn lunches we have together. Each one seems to take on a life of its own and become an adventure.

I can still see the look on that big guy's face sitting at the bar, next door to the restaurant. He seemed so confused that I would suggest he should move his motorcycle, so you could move YOUR car. It took awhile for this ole blonde to figure out the car wasn't your's, and belonged to the bartender instead. And to think we didn't have a single drop to drink, and all that went on anyway:-)

You and Myrl sound like Cindy Jones and myself. We Rainers need to stick together. And for me, like Myrl, I'm trailing behind Cindy. Never gonna catch that girl. And for #1, well, I'd have to take down Lenn Harley. HA!

Hi Linda: Since I was standing across the street, I did not hear what the biker said to Myrl.

Hi Tammy: Myrl talks like a pirate even when she's not talking like a pirate.

Hi Myrl: Oh, watch my words, I know you'll inch up there, LOL. Thanks again for lunch and sorry I was late. I am almost never ever late for anything but I did not anticipate that last appointment running as long as it did, I always enjoy lunches with you!! I thought we would have at least 2 hours for lunch, initially. But we'll do it again.

Hi Chris Ann: I never knew Myrl until I met her through Active Rain. We have an odd connection in that we can finish each other's sentences and even if nobody else knows what we're talking about, we do.

Well, at least you didn't disclose how I want my ashes dispensed from a Pirate Ship on warm waters, and only to be done on International Talk Like a Pirate day:-) My wake is going to be a pirate party. It's in my will!

Morning Elizabeth I can understand where you are coming from on one hand but one the other people have a tendency to choose the first one on the list.

Hey Myrl: I do not disclose personal things that we talk about, nothing about underwear or twisted burning bodies in a boat, nope, my lips are sealed.

That's true, James, consumers often make the mistake of thinking that all real estate agents are the same.
