Grandma Susie's House of FUNNERS 'N FLOOZIES (Volume IV)

What did you wind up with?

I knew you must be out when you didn't have any sage advice for Jude on FB.

I'm still shopping. After looking at 200 cell phones my brain turns to mush.

I haven't been on FB this afternoon (until a few minutes ago). I will have to go give Jude some good advice (like I always do).

I hate shopping for bras. I just sit there looking stupid and then she calls me in. "Does this one make me look fat?" she asks. What the heck do you say?

No. Seriously?

Nah, it was a joke. No way I'd have any say in that decision. I just pay the Nordie's charge and move on.

I invited Jude to come visit Tennessee.

Women never take a guy's advice about anything concerning clothes. They just ask us to be polite; they don't really care what we think.

Aw. We just want to make you feel included.

We really don't....well some of us don't. Boys will be boys anyway.

And never ask a woman her size.

1) She will lie about it.

2) The size she actually buys is already one size too small.

3) You will get slapped.

I generally hate shopping for anything. I go, see something, decide that is it. Then live with my decision. Sometimes this is bad.

I enjoyed the jokes you were telling earlier.

I don't have one but I saw something I want to share with you all.
One of the local projects here, designed to alleviate poverty, is a six page newspaper called "Homeless Talk". It comes out once a month and comprises of short articles and poetry written by homeless people. It's printed and then given to these people to sell on street corners and traffic lights. (Bane of my existance - but that's another story)

I know I shouldn't laugh since the authors of the articles are not highly educated and probably don't have English as a first language. But sometimes the errors are really comical. Like this:

"During the riot the liquor shop was looted and police opened fire after they was stoned."

A couple of months back there was this one:

"We note with regret that Mrs Lerato Mtoung is recovering after a serious accident."

I have accomplished almost nothing today between shopping and other distractions.

I'm doing laundry (whites) now. "Pulling away" will consist of throwing towels and underwear somewhere.

ETA: Take it easy, AC. Too much excitement can be detrimental.

I do need to slow down.

Oooo Duchess, your avvie is steamy!

I have to go to work soon. Poo poo.

Save the steamy poo poo for another room. . . . .

all the jokes are funneh! I could use the chucklees. Hope you find a phone, ac. PS Bra shoppin' sux. Hope you all get what you want.

I finally bought one, Susie.

And now I'm making dry-rub ribs!

you say "no" and nod, or answer the phone...

why do women do this? I'm a woman, and I would never do this.

I enjoyed these jokes, Gail. I shouldn't be laughing at the second one but the fact it got printed really makes it funny. I Hope Ms Mtoung recovers soon.

Of all the stupid, reckless, dumb-ass things I did after I was stoned, opening fire was not one of them.

Most bras these days aren't even shaped like breasts. I've made kind of an informal study of the subject(s).
