The carrier, whose name was unavailable,
Now that's a stupid name, even for a postal employee. His parents must have hated him.

Snakes in a Hurricane....
Posted by: Chaz | August 29, 2006 at 09:57 AM
maybe the dog was at the vet and had to send in replacements.
Posted by: crossgirl | August 29, 2006 at 09:57 AM
Bitten FOUR times????? I hope I would figure out something was wrong after the first bite. At least the 2nd bite would clue me in.
This would explain why I carry a shotgun to my mail box.

"The bit woman"? Perhaps with luck, she'll get a major role and will get to give up the bit parts.

again, if blurk were here, he'd say ...SHOTGUN people!
Posted by: Siouxie | August 29, 2006 at 10:01 AM
Snakes. Why'd it have to be snakes.
Posted by: Indiana Jones | August 29, 2006 at 10:05 AM
blurk IS here and he says...SHOTGUN people!
Posted by: blurk | August 29, 2006 at 10:05 AM

Well, they have been run out of their planes and trains and "flats" and countless other places lately. Where are they to go? Where is affirmative action when you need it?
Posted by: Jazzzz | August 29, 2006 at 10:09 AM
blurk, somehow I knew you'd be right there.
didn't even need to warm up the beacons.

"At least the 2nd bite would clue me in."
No, no. I'm old, I'm heavy, I drink and I am easily distracted, but one bite and my ass would be traveling at light speed.

Mornin' Jazzzzzzzzz, you're still awol on the booger's page. but we're patient, aren't we guys?
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 29, 2006 at 10:21 AM
NEVER, under any circumstances, NEVER pass up a chance to examine the patterning characteristics of your shotgun on a snake.
That's just sound marksmanship advice.
Posted by: blurk | August 29, 2006 at 10:25 AM
Yes we are NOT :)
OtheU??? uh...you're ALL wearing glasses on that picture....unless you're the cool one wearing the psychadelic ones...
Mud, we're not OLD...just drawn that way :)
Posted by: Siouxie | August 29, 2006 at 10:25 AM
Siouxie -
Very provacative photo! I like the shoulder action. ;)
Posted by: Eleanor | August 29, 2006 at 10:25 AM
oh and thanks, blurk....
Posted by: Siouxie | August 29, 2006 at 10:26 AM
There's room for you there too, El, not fair to comment on Sioux without your own offering. even though your comments were right on as usual.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 29, 2006 at 10:27 AM
WYO....I know, I know...but progress IS being made.. First pic was deleted by burning computer by Ms Jazzzz. Apparently didn't meet bloglit standards. Once pic of me is sent, you'll say "we waited for THIS?"
Posted by: Jazzzz | August 29, 2006 at 10:29 AM
Wyo, do you accept "it looks similar to me but isn't exactly me" pics? You know, for us cyber-shy folks?
Posted by: kitten | August 29, 2006 at 10:31 AM
"The hospital does not release patient information without a name."
Why not? As long as you're not giving the name, no confidentiality is breached. Of course, it may get confusing, not knowing where one patient's ailments end and another starts.
"Multiple stab wounds, a cold, gunshot to the left pinky toe, four snake bites to the right hand, lung cancer, chronic irritable bowel, severed pen*s, a splinter, the hiccups, blindness, hubris, avarice, the mumps, testicles stuck in a chair, obesity, shortness of breath, longness of breath, and pronouced dead at 11:42am. We'll have updates every 6 minutes."

Thanks, El...all gussied up for a wedding that night. Wyo is right though...we need more boogers :)
Posted by: Siouxie | August 29, 2006 at 10:34 AM
Kitten, that's exactly what I did. Everybody knows I really look like Jack Bauer.
Posted by: blurk | August 29, 2006 at 10:34 AM
kit, yes, of course. I've heard you look much like Sandra Bullock.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 29, 2006 at 10:34 AM
*snork* Chris's longness of breath.
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | August 29, 2006 at 10:38 AM

Kitten, that's not really me...I look like Angelina Jolie ...
*puckers lips* SEE???

Aw, maan, I thought it would be an ebay item . . .

Posted by: Mahatma Kane Jeeves | August 29, 2006 at 10:40 AM
nice shoes, ch.
blurk, you are NOTHING like i pictured. i think i got you confused with someone else.
Posted by: crossgirl | August 29, 2006 at 10:44 AM
Wyo - let me research my celeb twin and get back to you
Posted by: kitten | August 29, 2006 at 10:48 AM
blurk, you are NOTHING like i pictured. i think i got you confused with someone else.
see, Wyo, this is one reason I don't want to post a pic - is this bad or good?
Posted by: kitten | August 29, 2006 at 10:49 AM
kitten, I'm not sure. I was told I look like they thought I did...which could be bad or good as well!
bottom line is... you are who you be :)
Posted by: Siouxie | August 29, 2006 at 10:52 AM
Snakes underneath a drunk moose.
Posted by: Matt Morrison | August 29, 2006 at 10:52 AM
no, no, no, kitten, it's a good thing. all this time i've pictured someone else at the keyboard. avoid such confusion and post a pic!
Posted by: crossgirl | August 29, 2006 at 10:54 AM
Good, bad or indifferent that's me.
Except I'm taller.
And better looking.
Posted by: blurk | August 29, 2006 at 10:58 AM
exactly!
i was picturing someone 60ish, heavy, glasses. apparantly i just made it all up.
Posted by: crossgirl | August 29, 2006 at 11:02 AM
if anyone needs me, i'll be frantically going thru old strumpet photos looking for my guy.
Posted by: crossgirl | August 29, 2006 at 11:03 AM
Siouxie - yup. That's the joke. (I blame Wyo, he wrote it. Of course, I fed him the lines ... or mebbe it wuz global warming?)
Hint: Celeb twin? Think oatmeal.
TMI: That's a pic of four cousins at a recent reunion ... first time in many years we'd all been in the same place at the same time ... except for kinfolk funerals, when we din't take pix ...

Posted by: O. the U(manity) | August 29, 2006 at 11:05 AM
ohhhh...my bad :)
Ya look good though! (hope you have better aim than our VP)
Posted by: Siouxie | August 29, 2006 at 11:11 AM
No prob ... and, I have it on the authority of an eight-year-old young lady that these glasses are "really cool" ... merely ... um ... whutever ...
Posted by: O. the U(manity) | August 29, 2006 at 11:18 AM
Wyo - thanks for the boogers page. Nice to put a face with the personalities :-)

O t U, I figured you for the Wilford Brimley lookalike. Was I close?
Posted by: DimWitte | August 29, 2006 at 05:19 PM
Dim, he's the good lookin' one.
*slaps high five to my buddy, OtheU*
Posted by: blurk | August 29, 2006 at 06:41 PM
that's what I meant, blurk.
Posted by: DimWitte | August 29, 2006 at 07:16 PM
yeah, yeah, yeah ... (and, no, this is not a Beatles karaoke session) ...
Yup, me 'n' "Cousin" Wilfred ... my kids have commented on this phenomena for a lot longer than I wish they would ...
Oddly enuf, our clan seems to have a tendency to bear more than a passing resemblance to celebrities ...
When I first met MB(RH?) I thot she reminded me of Juliette Prowse ... (she still does) ... now, a couple of our nieces carry on that tradition ...
Also, long ago we tooken the critters for a winter weekend away from home ... check into a motel with an indoor pool, play games, see some movies ... that sorta Nodak excitement ...
First thing that happened wuz when the kids turned on the TV (with WAAAAAAAAYYYY more channels than we had at home) there was a rerun of Mayberry's Andy & Opie ...
The girls got all excited and really shouted, "Hey, Look! Matthew's on TV!" (He bore an uncanny resemblance to Opie at the time ... later on, we costumed him as Howdy Doody for a kiddie parade ... of course, he wuz 17 at the time, so he din't appreciate it muchly ...)
/braggin' on good-lookin' kids and lamentation that moi ownself couldn't have looked more like ... um ... somebuddy else ...
Posted by: O. the U(manity) | August 29, 2006 at 07:27 PM
... no ... really, he wuz only about 7 or 8 when we forced him to be Howdy ...
and now, he's not as bald as Ron Howard, but he's gettin' there ...
