I do not think it is a coincidence

that Continental upgrades me to Elite status and in that same year I develop an inexplicable urge to visit the West Coast more often.

Nosir.

Songs About Rain

I have a lot of songs about rain. Some rain would be nice.

I mean, nicer than everything being on fire...

From my cold, dead paws!

Messing with TX

Me: hey--are you there?

Brother: Yes, I'm here. What's up?

M: I have to share this with someone and it can't be anyone at work
I just had the first treatment to get my TX tattoo removed
and it HURTSSSSSSSSSS

J: Ouch
Did I even know you HAD a TX tattoo?

M: did you?
it was/is on my back
just an outline of the state of TX

J: I see
But you can't tell people at work, because they will find excuses to slap you on the back?

M: I dunno, it's embarrassing

J: To be removing a tattoo?

M: yes, and, to admit that I have one in the first place

J: Just tell them that you didn't want your back associated with Rick Perry.

M: ohhhhh YESSSSSSSSSS
I knew there was a reason I came to you

J: Tell them that your tattoo has decided to secede from your body

M: Bwwwaahhhhhhhhh
