SOME LITTLE KNOWN FACTS ABOUT FRANCE

THE MAILMAN

HAS A UNIFORM OF SORTS, JACKET, RAINGEAR ECT.

BUT HE IS NOT OBLIGED TO WEAR THEM.

IN THE RECENT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION,

A MAILMAN IN HIS 30'S CAME IN 4th

OUT OF 12 CANDIDATES

WITH 4.5% OF THE VOTE.

HE WEARS T-SHIRTS AT ALL EVENTS!

A FIRST !!!

I AM GOING TO BE 65.
IN ALL OF MY LIFE THERE IS A
THING I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED,
IT HAPPENED TODAY.

IT CAME SO UNEXPECTLY,
IT WAS AN HOUR BEFORE IT SET IN.

MY WIFE, A WOMAN, SAID,...............

I'M SORRY.

OH......MY.....GOD.....
THAT MUST HAVE BEEN THE FIRST TIME IN ALL HUMANITY THAT
A WOMAN SAID I'M SORRY TO A MAN.

LEAVING ECOLE JACQUES PREVERT TO GO TO CARNAVAL

CLICK TO SEE WHY I LOVE HER

MY WIFE LOVES GAURANTEES. I DON'T.
BUT MY MINOLTA DX WENT ON THE BLINK AND SHE SAW THERE WAS
A COULPE OF WEEKS LEFT ON THE GAURANTEE.
SO SHE BROUGHT IT BACK TO FNAC .
A MONTH PASSED AND NO WORD.
SO WE WENT TO CHECK.
IT WASN'T FIXED YET ,
SO THEY LENT US A CANON.
I LOVED IT AND WE WENT ON VACATION WITH IT.

WELL WE WERE BACK A WEEK AND WE GOT A CALL TO COME FOR THE CAMERA.
DAMN THEY FIXED IT.
BUT WAIT. THEY DIDN'T FIX IT ,
SO THE GAVE US A NEW ONE.
A BETTER ONE TOO!

THE OTHER DAY I SAW GREEN TOILET PAPER IN ANNIE'S FAVORITE BRAND AND THOUGHT IT WOULD GO GOOD IN THE NEMOURS GREEN BATHROOM.



WRONG!
SHE HATES THAT COLOR GREEN.
WOMEN!

I STINK !

FOR THE LAST SEVERAL WEEKS
I'VE NOT BEEN BATHING IN THE MORNING.
THIS ENABLES ME TO SLEEP AN EXTRA HALF HOUR.
I TAKE A BATH IN THE AFTERNOON OR EVENING.
SOMETIMES I GO A DAY OR TWO WITHOUT BATHING.
I CHANGE MY CLOTHS EVERY DAY.

BUT THIS IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF
GETTING FN OLD!

THERE WAS A TIME WHEN I'D BATH 2 OR 3 TIMES A DAY.

THE CLOCK IS
COUNTING DOWN!!!!!!!!!

DAMNED ECONOMY

IN THE LAST WEEK
I HAVE LOST 15.6% OF MY I.R.A. RETIREMENT.
SINCE I DIDN'T HAVE THAT MUCH IN IT TO BEGIN WITH,
THAT IS A BIG CHUCK.

OH WELL, YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU!

JOB WELL DONE

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER EURO

IN ORDER TO GET A DRIVERS LICENSE IN FRANCE
YOU HAVE TO GO TO DRIVING SCHOOL.
IT COSTS ABOUT 1000 $US TO GET ONE
DEPENDING ON HOW STUPID YOU ARE.

THAT'S THE REASON THERE ARE OVER A MILLION
PEOPLE DRIVING WHITOUT A LICENCE IN FRANCE

THE TEST IS QUITE DIFFICULT.
ONEC YOU GET THE LICENSE YOU HAVE TO HAVE
A BIG "A" IN RED ON THE BACK OF THE CAR FOR
3YRS TO SHOW YOU ARE AN APPRENTICE DRIVER.
AFTER THAT IT'S GOOD FOR LIFE.

ONCE THE FRENCH PASS THE PERMIT IT IS SYSTEM D. WHICH IS
IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE RULE YOU IGNORE IT.
THAT IS WHY 90% OF THE ASSHOLES WHO DRIVE,SPEED,GO THRU STOP SIGNS, DON'T SIGNAL, AND STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF A CROSSWALK
WHEN THERE IS SOMEONE CROSSING.

IT'S A GOOD THING THERE ARE ONLY 167 DAYS LEFT BEFORE I
END MY CAREER AS SCHOOL CROSSING GUARD.

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED THIS MORNING

A WOMEN STOPPED HER CAR AT THE CROSSING AND SAID STILL THERE!
SHE THEN SAID I HIRED YOU.
THEN IT CLICKED.
IT WAS THE WOMAN AT THE TOWN HALL
WHO HIRED ME IN 1999 TO DO THE CENSUS.
SHE REMEMBERED ME!
WELL THAT MADE MY DAY.

THE LAST DAY

OF AN UNEVENTFULL VACATION.
WE BOTH GO BACK TO WORK TOMMORROW.
IT IS 40 DAYS UNTILL THE NEXT VACATION.

THE TERMITE TREATMENT WILL BE DONE
THEN AND WE WILL GO AWAY FOR 2 DAYS
AFTER IT IS DONE.

THE LAST TIME

I HAVEN't SPOKEN OF THE SUCKER OF THE DAY FOR SOME TIME.
THEY HAVEN'T STOPPED SINCE APRIL.
THIS NUT GETS THEM TO CARRY HER LITTLE
SACS TO HER HOUSE.
HERE SHE SITS WITH HER SAC AFTER HER SUCKER DIDN'T GO TO HER DOOR.
SHE WAITS FOR ANOTHER WHICH SHE FINALLY GETS.
TODAY SHE GOT 3 PEOPLE WHILE I WAS ON DUTY.
THIS IS THE LAST TIME I WILL MENTION HER.

JUST TO LET YOU KNOW THE SUCKERS ARE STILL A DIME A DOZEN.

MY WIFE GOES INTO THE HOSPITAL TODAY TO FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER.
HER SPIN AND THE PAINS IN THE ARTICULATION.
TESTS AND NO INDICATION HOW LONG IT WILL BE.
THE HOSPITAL IS IN PARIS, SO I NEED TO GO
BY TRAIN (EASIEST) TO VISIT HER.
IF IT'S NOT ME IT'S HER.
DOCTORS, HOSPITALS, WHEN WILL IT END.
NO DON'T TELL ME, I KNOW.
WHEN WE ARE 6ft UNDER!

THIS PAST WEEKEND IN NEMOURS

ANNIE EXPLAINS IT SO MUCH BETTER THAN I CAN. EVEN IF IT'S IN FRENCH.
WE HAD COMPANY FOR LUNCH ON SATURDAY.

"Pour commencer, Joe ne se sentait pas bien et avait un malaise attribué à une chute de tension mais cela faisait bien 3 semaines qu'il n'en faisait plus. Il était tout blanc quand nos invités sont arrivés et on l'a cantonné dans un fauteuil.
Puis, pendant l'apéritif, Gilbert a eu un malaise avec perte de connaissance et tremblements. Il est tombé sur Geneviève qui croyait qu'il voulait ramasser quelque chose par terre. Quand on a réalisé ce qui se passait, on l'a redressé et Gilbert qui n'a rien vu venir est revenu à lui mais il n'avait aucun souvenir du malaise, on a voulu l'aider à s'asseoir dans le canapé quand cela a recommencé. Cela a duré environ 30 secondes et 15 secondes la 2ème fois mais c'était assez inquiétant pour que j'appelle le 15 qui m'a envoyé les pompiers. Ceux-ci ont trouvé une tension très basse et sont restés jusqu'à ce que Gilbert signe une décharge quand la tension est redevenu normale. Gilbert se sentait très fatigué mais tout semblait être redevenu normal.Apparemment cela fait la 2ème fois que cela lui arrive. Crise d'épilepsie, mini accident cérébral ... ? Il a très peu mangé, bu de l'eau et André l'a raccompagné jusqu'à Velizy. On a tous vérifié au téléphone que tout allait bien. On lui a dit d'aller voir son médecin pour un check up au minimum. Il n'a pas trop envie. Il envisage quand même d'y aller mercredi s'il a le temps... Je vais lui téléphoner jeudi matin pour savoir.
Je voulais que les pompiers prennent la tension de Joe puisqu'ils étaient là mais Joe n'a pas voulu. Il a retrouvé de la couleur dans le milieu de l'après-midi. Il n'a pourtant mangé que la bouchée à la reine. Il faut dire qu'avec les
événements, on a mangé froid et trop cuit. C'était complètement raté!
Puis la journée s'est déroulé sans problèmes d'où les photos qui nous montrent en bonne santé!!!
Le soir, Joe n'avait pas faim comme d'habitude mais il s'est forcé à manger une pomme et un peu de viande et vers 20h30 il a eu un malaise mais c'était différent des habituels. Il était trempé de sueur, blanc et son coeur battait à plus de 160, je n'arrivais pas à compter assez vite. Il m'a fait peur et on a rappelé le 15! Cette fois, les pompiers (2 de la même équipe du midi!! ) et le samu sont venus. Ils ont fait un électrocardiogramme et une intraveineuse de sucre car c'était un malaise hypoglycémique. A 9h30, tout le monde est reparti et on est allé se coucher avant qu'autre chose n'arrive !!!
Je crois néanmoins qu'on se rappelera de cette journée !!!"

AND THAT'S THE REST OF THE STORY!

VACATION

AS THE SUN SETS..........
HOORAY!
I'M ON VACATION TILL NOVEMBER 6th.

CAN'T WAIT TO SLEEP LATE AND BE LAZY.
TWO OF MY FAVORITE PASSTIMES.

BACK TO WORK

GLAD TO BE BACK TO WORK TODAY.
BUT I AM ALSO GLAD THAT THIS IS
MY LAST YEAR WORKING.

I ALMOST FORGOT WHAT ASSHOLES THE DRIVERS WERE
AND THE STUPID PEDESTRIANS WHO ARE JUST ASKING
TO BE RUN OVER.

THE STRESS OF WORRYING IF SOMEONE WILL BE
KILLED DURING MY TIME AT MY POST IS JUST
TOO MUCH.

I DON'T GIVE A DAMN IF THEY GET KILLED,
(THEY DESERVE IT)
BUT NOT ON MY TIME!

BUYING FURNITURE

45 YEARS HAVE PAST, I'VE CHANGED COUNTRIES, AND BUYING FURNITURE IS STILL A CRAP SHOOT.

WE GOT OUR BEDROOM SET DELIVERED IN NEMOURS IN JUNE.
THE DELIVERY GUY DAMAGED SEVERAL SHELVES AND
ALSO THE CEILING WHEN HE PUT IT TOGETHER.

ANNIE WROTE AND CALLED THE STORE AND THE DELIVERY SERVICE SEVERAL TIMES AND FINALLY THEY ORDERED REPLACEMENTS.

TODAY, 4 MONTHS LATER SHE MADE A SPECIAL TRIP TO NEMOURS TO HAVE THE PIECES CHANGED.
THE DELIVERY GUY DAMAGED A LEG OF THE SMALL BUREAU BUT MANAGED TO CHANGE THE TOP. BUT THE SHELVES FOR THE ARMOUR WERE NOT THE RIGHT ONES.

NOTHING HAS CHANGED IN 45 YEARS!
YOU CAN NEVER COUNT ON GETTING YOUR PURCHASE IN GOOD CONDITION.

HOW LONG BEFORE IT'S FINISHED?
YOUR GUESS IS AS GOOD AS MINE.

BEFORE MY SHOWER

THIS MORNING I WEIGHED MYSELF.
I WAS 258.38 lbs OR 117.2 klg.

THE LOWEST I'VE BEEN IN YEARS.
I AM NOT TRYING!
I HOPE I FIND MY EQUILIBRIUM SOON.
WHEN MY FOOD INTAKE IS ENOUGH TO KEEP MY WEIGHT STABLE.

I DON't WANT TO BE A SKINNY OLD MAN WITH FLABBY SKIN!

TRY TRY AGAIN

ALL MORNING I'VE BEEN TRYING TO POST VIDEOS OR THE ROOMS AND ATTIC IN NEMOURS TO MY FATGUY IN NEMOURS BLOG TO NO AVAIL.
IT SEEMS LIKE THEY ARE HAVEING PROBLEMS WITH UPLOADS.
TOO DAMN TIRED TO KEEP TRYING SO I'LL FORGET IT FOR NOW.

I'M GETTIG STONGER, BUT I STILL AM NOT WELL. I DID GO DOWN FOR THE MAIL TODAY. THAT'S A START. TOMMORROW I'LL GO TO THE GARAGE.
WEDNESDAY I HAVE AN APPT WITH MY DIABETES DOCTOR AND THAT WILL BE A BIG OUTING FOR ME.

P.S. TRY NOT TO EVER GET A GALL BLADDER OPERATION!
IT IS NO PICNIC!

MY LATEST PROBLEMS STARTED SEPT 11 2006

ON SEPT 11th I WAS TAKEN TO THE ER BY THE FIREMEN AND AFTER SEVERAL HOURS IN THE ER I WAS ADMITTED. I WAS OPERATED ON SEPT 13 FOR AN INFECTED GALL BLADER. I WAS IN INTENSIVE CARE TILL SEPT 20 AND WAS RELEAST YESTERDAY ON SEPT 22nd.
I'M STILL TOO EXAUSTED TO WRITE THE COMPLETE STORY...BUT AS I RECOVER I WILL RECOUNT MORE.
I HAVE SICK LEAVE FOR 3 WEEKS AND HOPE TO GET BACK TO WORK AFTER THAT.

THE RETURN OF "THE SUCKER OF THE DAY"

I DON'T KNOW WHO IS CRAZIER,

THE WOMAN WHO ASKS SOMEONE

TO CARRY HER PLASTIC BAG,

OR THE ONE WHO WINDS UP

CARRYING THE BAG.

BACK TO WORK

WELL I’VE BEEN BACK TO WORK SINCE MONDAY. SAME POSTE, BUT NEW KIDDIES AND MOMS. IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE MORE KIDS THIS YEAR.
REGRETFULLY IT’S MY LAST SCHOOL YEAR, BECAUSE AT 65 THEY PUT YOPU OUT TO PASTURE WHEN YO WORK FOR A MUNICIPALITY.
IT’S A PITY BECAUSE I LIKE THE NEW UNIFORMS WE HAVE. IT MAKES US LOOK MORE OFFICIAL.

THIS IS THE COLD WEATHER ONE WITH A ZIP IN LINING AND A HOOD.

THIS IS THE WARM WEATHER ONE

MEDICAL MISERY

FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS I'VE HAD A WORM SHAPED FIGURE FLOATING IN MY LEFT EYE.
I WENT TO THE OPTOMOLOGIST YESTERDAY MORNING AND SHE SENT ME TO THE HOPITAL DU DIEUX IN PARIS. THEY ARE THE EYE SPECIALISTS.
IT SEEMS I HAD A TORN RETINA AND THE WORM WAS THE EYE FLUID LEAKING OUT.

I WENT HOME AND HAD LUNCH AND ANNIE AND I TOOK THE TRAIN TO PARIS.
IT WAS EASIER THAN TAKING THE CAR AND MORE DIRECT.
AFTER WAITING 3 HOURS I GOT TO SEE THE INTERN WHO TOOK ME TO THE LASER ROOM AND SHOT MY EYEBALL ABOUT A HUNDRED TIMES WITH THE LASER BEAM.
IT SHOULD TAKE ABOUT 2 WEEKS BEFORE WE KNOW IF IT TOOK.
IN THE MEANTIME I CAN DO EVERYTHING BUT HAVE TO WATCH OUT FOR FLASHES OF LIGHT AND COLORS WHICH IS A SIGN OF A TORN RETINA.

WHAT A COUNTRY!!!!!!

I WENT TO MY BANK THIS MORNING TO DEPOSIT SOME CASH.
THERE WERE NO SECURITY DOORS WORKING AND THERE WAS A SECURITY GUARD(HA) WITH A GUARD DOG IN THE ENTRANCE.
THERE WAS ALSO A SIGN SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT TRANSACTIONS.
WHEN IT WAS MY TURN I ASKED CAN I DEPOSIT SOME CASH?
THE TELLER RESPONDED BY SAYING NO.
I THEN ASKED WHEN CAN I?
AND SHE SAID BY THE END OF THE MONTH.
SHE GAVE ME THE LOCATION OF ANOTHER BRANCH.

WHEN I GOT TO THE OTHER BRANCH THERE WAS GUARD DOG WITH A MUZZLE ON, LYING DOWN OUTSIDE AND A SECURITY GUARD (HA HA ) ON THE INSIDE PLAYING WITH HIS MOBILE PHONE.

I WENT TO THE TELLER AND DEPOSITED THE CASH TO MY ACCOUNT IN THE OTHER BRANCH AND ASKED WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM AT MY BRANCH.
SHE TOLD ME THERE WERE 2 HOLDUPS ON CONSECUTIVE FRIDAYS THERE.

NOW YOU KNOW THE REST OF THE STORY!
WHAT A BUNCH OF AHOLES RUNNING THIS COUNTRY'S BANKS.

THE MORAL OF THIS STORY IS,
"IF YOU NEED MONEY, ROB A BANK IN FRANCE"

RANT

THERE ARE 3 MORE WEEKS BEFORE SUMMER VACATION STARTS.
I AM BECOMING MORE AND MORE OF A MENTAL SERIAL KILLER.
LET ME EXPLAIN.
THERE ARE PEOPLE I HAVE BEEN KILLING OFF MENTALLY FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER AND IT HAS BECOME OVERWHELMING THE LAST FEW DAYS.
MAYBE IT'S THE INTENSE HEAT THAT IS MAKING ME LESS TOLERANT THAN EVER.

HERE IS MY LIST:

1. WOMEN WHO DRIVE THEIR KIDS TO SCHOOL WITHOUT ATTACHING SEAT BELTS ON THE KIDS.
2. THE PARENTS WHO PUT LITTLE KIDS UNDER 3 IN THE FRONT SEAT WITHOUT A SEAT BELT.
3. WOMEN WHO TAKE THEIR KIDS TO SCHOOL AND NEVER USE THE PASSAGE PIETON (CROSSWALK)
4. THE WOMEN WHO USE THE CROSSWALK ,BUT DON'T STOP TO LOOK IF TRAFFIC IS CLEAR AND SAFE.
5. THE WOMEN WHO DON'T STOP AT THE STOP SIGN AND JUST TURN AND GO THROUGH.
6. THE WOMEN WHO DON'T STOP BEFORE THE CROSSWALK WHEN I AM STOPPING TRAFFIC TO CROSS KIDS.
7. THE ASSHOLES WHO DON'T STOP AT THE STOP SIGN AND ALSO HAVE A PHONE IN THIER HAND HAVING A HEATED CONVERSATION.
8. THE TEACHERS WHO MOUNT THE HILL AND NEVER USE THE CROSSWALK (GOOD ROLE MODELS)
9. THE ASSHOLES WHO USE THE STREET THAT IS INTERDIT(FORBIDDEN) TO CARS INSTEAD OF THE NORMAL ROAD.
10. MOTOR BIKES WHO HAVE NO MUFFLERS AND MAKE ENOUGH NOISE TO WAKE THE DEAD

NOTICE I USE WOMEN ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY IN MY LIST. IT'S BECAUSE 95% OF THE ASSHOLES I KILL OFF MENTALLY, ARE WOMEN.

THE LIST GOES ON AND ON.

I HOPE I MAKE IT THRU THE NEXT 3 WEEKS WITHOUT GOING POSTAL!

TODAY

IT IS AS HOT AS HELL.
IT'S DAYS LIKE TODAY THAT MAKE ME WISH I HAD EASY ACCESS TO AIR CONDITIONING.
IT IS COMING HERE IN FRANCE FOR RESIDENCES,
BUT IT IS NOT CHEAP AND NOT AS EASY TO INSTALL AS IN THE STATES.

I HAVEN'T POSTED ANYTHING FOR AWHILE BECAUSE NOTHING SEEMED INTERESTING ENOUGHT TO SHARE. I HOPE THAT CHANGES SOON.
VACATION TIME IS COMING AND I SHOULD HAVE MORE TO SHARE AS THE SUMMER PROGRESSES.
I KEEP ADDING RECENT PHOTOS TO PASTS POSTS LIKE "SUCKER OF THE DAY" AND "NEMOURS GARDEN" ETC., SO I SUGGEST YOU
LQQK BACK ON SOME OF THOSE SITES TO SEE RECENT PHOTOS.

I SHOULD GO PICK UP MY NEW GLASSES FOR THE PC TODAY,
BUT IT REALLY IS TOO DAMN HOT TO DO ANYTHING WORTHWHILE.

SUCKER OF THE DAY

JUNE 1, 2006

SHE ALWAYS FINDS A SUCKER

TO CARRY HER BAG.

SEE PREVIOUS

ENTRIES

IN MAY 2006

YESTERDAY I MADE A

A CHEESECAKE

10 MINUTES BEFORE IT'S DONE
DONE
THE NEXT DAY(THIS MORNING) JUST OUT OF

THE FRIG.

TREE DOWN

I CAME HOME FRIDAY BECAUSE I HAD TO WORK TODAY.

WHEN I WENT DOWNSTAIRS I FOUND THE WILLOW TREE WITH A BIG

BRANCH DOWN. THE WINDS MUST HAVE BEEN PRETTY STRONG HERE

SINCE TUESDAY NIGHT.

HERE IS A PHOTO.

CLICK ON PHOTO TO ENLARGE

P.S.

THE GUARDIAN SAID IT WASN'T THE WIND,

THE TREE WAS ROTTEN AND JUST FELL.

SHORT WEEK

WE WORK TODAY AND TOMMORROW.

WEDNESDAY WE BOTH HAVE OFF

AND THURSDAY IS A HOLIDAY.

ANNIE HAS FRIDAY OFF, BUT I DON'T.

SO TUESDAY NIGHT WE GO TO NEMOURS,

I COME BACK FRIDAY

AND THEN GO BACK TO NEMOURS FOR THE WEEKEND.

THAT MAKES TWO 2 DAY WEEKENDS

FOR ME

AND A

FIVE DAY WEEKEND

FOR ANNIE.

A GREAT WEEK AHEAD!

SUCKER OF THE DAY OR SUCKER DU JOUR

SEE YESTERDAY'S ENTRY ON P.T.BARNUM

ACTION JACKSON

MY GRANDDAUGHTER IN ACTION

AT THE LAST GAME OF THE SEASON LAST

SATURDAY.

HER TEAM WON 4-0

P.T.BARNUM ONCE SAID "THERE'S A SUCKER BORN EVERY MINUTE"

THIS SLEAZEBAG PROVES HIS STATEMENT!

FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS I'VE

SEEN HER HAVE DIFFERENT PEOPLE EVERYDAY

CARRY HER BAG WITH A BAGETTE AND SOME

OTHER SMALL ITEM

RIGHT TO HER DOOR FROM THE SQUARE BELOW.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT SHE TELL'S THEM,

BUT SHE GETS THEM TO CARRY THIS SMALL PLASTIC SACK FOR HER.

SHE'S THE SAME NUT WHO WAS DUMPING HER GARBAGE INTO

THE SEWERS ON THE CORNER AFTER LUNCH.

NOT SUMMER BUT HOT HOT HOT

ME AT MY POST ABOUT 12:35

HOT, FATIGUED

ONLY 55 DAYS TO GO BEFORE

SUMMER VACATION

I CAN'T WAIT!

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT FOR 8 DEADLY SINS

IT’S MY OPINION THAT THE GUILLOTINE SHOULD BE REINTRODUCED ALONG WITH CAPITAL PUNISHMENT IN FRANCE.

THE OFFENSES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THIS END WOULD BE:

1)MURDER

2)RAPE

3)SPEEDING

4)CHILD ABUSE

5)JAYWALKING

6)GOING THRU STOP SIGNS ON PURPOSE

7)NOT PUTTING SEAT BELTS ON CHILDREN IN AUTOMOBILES

8)RIDING MOTOR BIKES WITHOUT MUFFLERS

I WOULD THEN BE ABLE TO DIE KNOWING THAT THE WORLD IS GETTING BETTER AND THE ASSHOLES WOULD NO LONGER BE IN CONTROL

THE WALL NEAR MY POST BEING REPAIRED

CLICK ON THE LINK ABOVE TO SEE THE PHOTOS
APRIL 24, 2006...THE WALL IS FINISHED....

IF YOU CHECK OFTEN YOU WILL SEE THE CHANGES.
I WILL POST PHOTOS OF THE PROGRESS UNTILL THE WALL IS FINISHED
ORIGINAL POST WAS MARCH 29, 2006 6:57 PM

ONLY TO ME

WE CAME BACK TO ATHIS TUESDAY NIGHT FOR 2 DAYS BECAUSE I HAD 2 DR APPOINTMENTS AND ANNIE HAD TO HAVE LUNCH WITH HER COUSIN IN PARIS.
I ALSO HAD TO PICK UP MY NEW EYEGLASSES.

WELL ON THE WAY BACK YESTERDAY FROM MY FIRST APPOINTMENT, I STOPPED AT CARREFOUR TO FILL UP THE CAR AND BUY SOME GROCERYS. WHEN I WENT TO PARK AFTERWARDS I SAW SOME COPS I KNEW GIVING TICKETS TO PEOPLE IN THE HANDICAP PARKING AREA.
I GOT OUT OF THE CAR TO SAY HELLO, AND LOCKED THE CAR WITH THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION AND THE MOTOR RUNNING.
LUCKILY THEY COPS WERE CO WORKERS. THEY OFFERED TO TAKE ME HOME TO GET THE EXTRA SET OF KEYS I HAD THERE.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. WHAT A JERK I WAS.
THAT WAS THE SECOND TIME I DID THAT IN MY LIFE, AND HOPEFULLY THE LAST.
