I have to remember each time to tell him "DON'T throw it right NOW, but let me show you a trick..."<BR/><BR/>That's going to be an upcoming post, methinks.<BR/><BR/><B>Carrie:</B> Though you may be new and presumably innocent, I'm still gonna start you out two notches down for rubbing in your unpoked eyes. Next time it'll be five, miss.<BR/><BR/>For thinking of me when someone pointedly takes something at face value to call attention to its inexactness or ridiculousness, I put you all the way up to +1 notch, because obviously you get me.<BR/><BR/>I haven't even gotten into that aspect of myself much at all yet, even 132 page-long posts into this blog, but I'm sure it's coming. Or maybe the name and my precise nature evidenced here and there is enough?<BR/><BR/><B>SherE1:</B> Hey, you may laugh, but who'll be laughing when my eyes are safe and sound from all the things I'll inevitably run into?<BR/><BR/><B>Manager Mom:</B> Oh, ever since I made that connection, I haven't-- I've been making sure Costco's 3-pound boxes overlap each other enough to keep my orifices unscathed by "the innocent".<BR/><BR/><B>Ms Picket To You:</B> Everyone likes pirates-- I don't think anyone's questioning their likable nature. See <A HREF="http://literaldan.blogspot.com/2008/05/not-exactly-glass-slipper-but-itll-do.html" REL="nofollow">this post</A> if you doubt my sincerety.<BR/><BR/>I think a foam frisbee might be a good investment as a learning device-- it's been an uphill battle waiting to be able to actually get to catch a frisbee, or throw it with any kind of satisfying power or distance.<BR/><BR/><B>Kori:</B> Perfect-- I was worried it might not come out right without my saying it the way I do.<BR/><BR/>Man, comments like the ones I've gotten for this post are why I'm so happy I started doing this-- maybe I can actually get it together soon and write something of substance so someone can buy it. But then, when would I blog? It's a conundrum.<BR/><BR/><B>Half-Past Kissin' Time:</B> You're not getting my Bud Light, lady. But you're welcome!<BR/><BR/><B>Black Hockey Jesus:</B> Oh, you'd better believe your blog is in my blog roll, buddy-- I'm still just blown away and feeling horribly inferior.<BR/><BR/>Everyone, if you're reading this, drop everything and go right now to <A HREF="http://windinyourvagina.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">The Wind In Your Vagina</A> (meaning click my link to the blog by that name, I'm not insulting you in a confusing way). Don't be fooled by the blog name or this guy's user name, his stuff is just gold, and if HE gets HIS act together, which is much more likely than me getting mine together, he will become wildly popular and famous, and you can say you knew him when. The best part is, he's only got about 15 posts so far, so you can get in on the ground floor and not have to go back through hundreds of posts to be caught up.<BR/><BR/>Just trust me, for whatever that's worth, and go read at least two posts. I feel like a fanboy, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.<BR/><BR/><B>Laski:</B> Thanks-- man, the ego boosts just keep rolling in! And thanks to Kori for sending you here.

Those were good times."<BR/><BR/>And that is my favorite part of this post; it was all good, but I swear I could HEAR that voice in my head.

I told my kids to get all the towels because I wanted to laundry. They, literally, brought me all the towels ... from the linen closet, from the pool, from the bathroom that is just for company and all I could do was laugh at say In My Head, "I've got to tell Literal Dan."Candid Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421804696146084068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076041415469800377.post-66254325784016899812008-06-05T14:34:00.000-05:002008-06-05T14:34:00.000-05:00Does mentioning pirates in your labels count?
