I can only wish that "Norm" stands for normal? However coming from "Larry the Okie", it's highly unlikely...

And I'm Curly damnit!!

He kept going and then she heard a scraping noise coming from the back of the house. She went downstairs and confronted a guy trying to pry the window open with a plastic tent stake. He kept trying even after she was yelling at him and did not run until she came back to the window with a phone in her hand calling 911.

What kind of eff'd up idiot tries to break into a house in daylight, with a barking dog and someone home.... with a plastic tent stake? It's troubling and despite him not getting anything or doing any physical harm, I've lost some piece of mind.

I reviewed operation of the kitten with my wife this afternoon. Jeebus.

did they get him? I'm glad Mrs. Herbie was OK. Scary stuff.

No, they brought her out to see a guy matching the description that was not him. There have been some break ins in the neighborhood lately. Sounds like teenagers, but can't be sure. She guessed the guys age at between 15 and 25.

I'm guessing he had to be on something regardless of age.

Tweekers

The dog got bonus Milk Bones today. He did a good job.

Definitely a tweeker. Recycled all his metal tent stakes already.

When the people listening to it cry, it does work. I keep telling you idiots, it's The Songs That Make Us Cry. That's why I wrote that song, it's true. And if you don't get it, you're like Ruokie. Glad I'm not like that. Being a Mets fan is miserable enough.

The place you are doing the recording in has too much of an echo.

She is mostly angry. I don't know if something else will come next, but the guy really pissed her off.

If You're going to replace SA we need pictures of your object of desire and more details of her nuttiness. We're experts at this so don't hold back!

There is no way - in hell - I'm going to put pictures of girls online without their knowing.

You'll get some relationship drama out of me, but I'm not the basket case he was.

It's a digital recorder on a stool Einstein, not Polygram Studios. P.S. the echo is this sophisticated high tech audio effect widely known as 'reverb'.

Good technology works.

Great technology disappears.

Bethoven's 9th (Ode to Joy) sure sounds good on a good sound system.

You know WOOOOSHHHH.... What effin ever. Folks like you are a dime a dozen, and I'm sure the same can be said about folks like me. Deal with it. I do.

LAJ, he is just trying to get a rise out of you. Just like he does with pcad and spelling, and with me with "Larry". He is not as dumb as he acts.

I bet he wasn't even in the military. Probably section 8'd
