Like Father, Like Daughter

Or is it the other way around? I invited Lauren to take a closer look at Funeratic so she could see why I spend so much time here. I started with a few pictures, Scott - ("I know him!") and a few others. She thought the concept for Celebrity Goo Game was "cute" but I told her she'd have to get her own account to play. Tragic Comedy intrigued her and the Blogs amused her. "Scott is very clever to come up with these topics." Got creeped out by Knocks posts, notably mine it seems. She actually participated in a few Rock Block concerts, although no tournament concerts. She proceeded to lose seemingly several to Chris and Erik including a Rock Block to Chris. She adored it despite losing. But she made me wonder, "Thirty points higher than me on your SAT's? Really?"

Brenda was a little unsure of the size of the bedrooms but agreed to go back and specifically measure them with a tape measure and if they met her minimum standards, she would agree to make an offer for the house.

"Special Olympics athletes are spokespersons for freedom itself - they ask for the freedom to live, the freedom to belong, the freedom to contribute, the freedom to have a chance. And, of all the values that unite and inspire us to seek a better world, no value holds a higher place than the value of freedom." - Eunice Kennedy Shriver Olivia's participation in today's Special Olympics was incredibly uplifting for me and Brenda.

So we got this gift from a mother-in law who shall remain nameless; a "super-mega-nuclear look at me long enough and your face will melt like that guy in Raiders toaster. There was nothing wrong with our existing toaster but when she saw it on QVC, my nameless mother-in-law had one of those have to have it moments. I've nicknamed the toaster Darth Vader because regardless of the setting, it turns the bread to the dark side every time. Go »

I hope she does get her own account. We'd be happy to have her. :-) Thanks for showing her the site.
