Absent For A Bit ....

I am away for a little while working on a few or more episodes for The Adventures of My Space Alien Alter Ego story ... will return (to Earth) soon!

Notice: Blogger has screwed up and lost a bunch of photos out of my blog! They are replaced with a gray silhouette of a human head. I will eventually get them replaced with the correct photo, it may take a while to find and fix everything. So some of my stories don't make much sense without their photos, sorry for the inconvenience.

Evil Elves, Escobar Hippos and Ebola Dreams

A good place to cry
Is in the shower, 'cause your
Tears have company

-----

July 5th: Today was nothing but the kitchen sink.

-----

You know how some homes have cuckoo clocks that announce the hour change throughout the day? In my house the distant teleBision is tuned into an NCIS marathon, so it is the opening theme song.

-----

I go online to study electric motors at Fasco.com, and I try to download their brochure called "Fasco Facts". But I get a 404 error for all 3 language choices, which indicates they most likely have a misconfigured web page.

So I try to be helpful and send them a message through their website, and I get an automatic reply:

"This submission has been marked as spam. Please try again."

I am thinking, ...um..., "No !!!"

I hate it when elves are stupid.

The Keebler Elves changed the packaging on my Cashew Sandies. This means they paid somebody, most likely another elf, to redesign a perfectly good package and increase the cost of my cookies. They didn't change the cookie, and they let me know that on both the top and side. Notice the font is twice as large for the first line as compared to the second in the notification. AND ... I most likely would not even noticed the change IF they hadn't told me because my old empty package is long gone bye-bye. SO ... the only real new thing I notice is the
NoN - Notification of Newness



-----

Advice: Do not study about the Ebola virus right before going to sleep. May affect dream(s) and / or waking up process.

I dreamt I was a cobbler the other night, I decided it might be OK being a cobbler although I may not know enough about shoes.

Being helpful is not always appreciated particularly by automated machinery

I have never ever heard of Cashew Sandies. . . .

I forgot about those Sandies, they are yum.

Rob: I enjoy dreams when I am doing something completely different with no eXperience. I met someone yesterday with contour cut hand made cowboy boots from Texas. She also likes the same Vibram toe shoes like always wear.

fmcgmccllc: No one else at my house likes the cashew Sandies eXcept Cooper and me. And he accepts them about 90 percent of the time. He usuaLLy gets at least 10 percent of my cookie.

I never have understood the idea of updating packaging. Unless it now comes with a zip seal, they can leave it alone!
