Sure is quiet around here.

Dang, Annie, that sounds like a blind date I had in high school.

[Trinity]

'taint nice pickin' on the handicapped Forty!!  I'm ashamed of you. 

ANNIE COME HERE WITH THAT SKILLET!!  FORTY IS MAKING FUN OF THE BLIND!!!!!

[Forty Rod]

SHE wasn't blind, but I was wishin' I was.

I won't say that girl was ugly, but DANG!!!

[Delmonico]

I went on a blind date once cuz a freind wanted to go out with my cuz.  Ended up marrying her and after 14 years I became a cripple and she left.    Decided not to go on no more blind dates.  Got my next one out of the want ads.

Guess I better go check on the laundry and get the dishes done afore she gets her skillet out, er my skillet.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Once upon a time, I would "date" men from singles chat rooms. I am doing my best to blank out that part of my memory.

I never was much of a "chatter", so that was out and I haven't tried those personal ads yet either.  I was once set up on a  date by a friend.... er acquaintance of mine.  He was daiting a bar tender at a local restaurant and since I was single at the time he thought he would be nice and set me up with the first single girl he came across.  She was a server at the same restaurant and I was not attracted to her at all.   I told him that and told him to back off, that I pick my own dates.

The next time we went to the bar she came in from the restaurant and screamed across the bar at me: "Why are you so mean!??" and ran off.  I looked at my friend and asked him what he had done... What did he do... he told her that I was not attracted to her!  Not wanting her to think that I was so mean, I went to her and told her that it was all a mistake and that he was an idiot and that I'd love to go out with her.  (I just can't stand to upset people!  And besides, it had been a while since a girl had cried over me like that anyway...). 

Well, I still was not attracted to her and she really wasn't very bright, so I tried to think of ways that I could turn it around on her so that she wouldn't like me.  I was in school at the time and invited her not out to eat, but to my house where I cooked chicken parmesan and spaghetti hoping that she would think that I was a cheapo... she liked it.  I had asked that my roomates stay with their girls and the neighbor, but that didn't annoy her.  Finally we watched Saturday Night Fever on TV (Before it had become popular again).  All during the movie, my roomates were acting (not so much acting, but that's a different story) like idiots, making noises and disrupting the film.  By the end I had fallen asleep.  When she finally left, she tried to kiss me, but I turned my attention to something on her car and she ended up kissing my cheek.  She never called back and I wasn't the mean one any more! 

Why are there those that think that all single people must be matched... and that the only virtue on which to base a match is singledom??  Never mind if there is a personality match or not.   

[Delmonico]

Weird thing happened, I went up to finish the dishes, the phone rang, Rita answered it, the neighbor lady was upset, her son called and said someone was on their front porch screaming.  They had called the police and were on the way home, so I puts my pistol in the back of my waistband and eased the front door open.  So lady wanted me to call the police cause her boyfriend had beat he up and left with their baby.  Well we called the police and then she talked to them, told them his name and said he had warrents out for him.  Well their are cops all around the neighborhood now and I wonderin' about this stooopid lady hangin' round with a guy she knows is violent and has warrents.  But I guess, hope the kid comes out ok.  There is a trashy appartment around the corner, old big house type.  Wish it would go away along with the trash that lives there.  Am I harsh, maybe, but nothing but lowlifes ever seem to live there.  Maybe my brother could borrow a dozer from work.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Sounds like you had quite a side show, Del.Definately not a good way to end your day. we have a soap opera down the way, too. Just not quite that bad. Makes things just not quite peaceful at times....Buck

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Dang, Del's real life sure trumps my old horror stories about dates.

I hope the baby is ok.

AnnieLee

[Delmonico]

Well I went out and checked what's goin' on, after searchin' the neighbor hood for an hour the cops were outside the appartmentgettin' a written statement from the lady, when the hear a baby cry.  Duh, did anyone check the apartment to see if he came back after the lady left and before the cops showed up?   Well the baby is a fine as it can be with such stooopid parents and he is off to jail in handcuffs and me pistol is back in my dresser drawer. 

Don't take this to mean that I think all cops are stooopid, no I know to many good ones, just the ones they sent out tonight, they get the duh award.   Guess that is where I would have had one of them check right away.

[Silver Creek Slim]

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

I was washing dishes and thinking about insults I probably shouldn't post!

AnnieLee

[Scattered Thumbs]

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

He did a fly-by yesterday. He's probably sleeping and taking care of the mess Delmonico made in his lawn.
