Emily nice PS work, so what time is your delivery scheduled? Keep us informed, take your camera.

Tigs, I see your denying Mike his toys again, shame on you!

Nice to see the MOCD is still in full affect or is that effect!

Robin, you have a talented family, I enjoy some of those good old movies late at night when the rest of the family is sleeping.

As an aside, my Golden Retriever got skunked last night, we had to give her a full bath last night at 1AM, she was keeping the wife and herself awake and the grumbles were not good. I have the house open today even with the 90 degree heat.

The MCS got baptised today since I had to take the GR to the Dog Shop and get a full anti-skunk bath, groom and hair oil treatment. Ewww, dog hair in Scooter... I have been putting this off for a month. But the little girl fits real well, now I have to buff out a paw scratch on the rear step in the back.

Picture of GR (Cassie) in Scooter will be added later, after bath and de-skunking.

s-s-s-s-s-kkkkkk--unk!

We actually have a family of them that live in our neighborhood. They strike fear in us on a nighly basis. Mike and I will be outside on the patio smoking, and they will saunter by, looking all innocent, and suddenly turn around and look at us.

Twice, the Momma skunk has walked toward us....and we've quickly darted into the house. I'm sure she tells her babies, "see kids...that's how to control those 2-legged critters".

I'm sorry about your dog. That must be horrendous to deal with.

I have that Dilbert book sitting on MY bookcase at work too! I've been known to pull it out, copy a cartoon, and make it the header of my staff meeting Memos/Agendas.

The skunks probably want to know what stinks. I almost ordered that plush toy. But my wife already retaliated for my prior purchases by buying a new washer, dryer and dishwasher. I'm still worrying about what that tape-measuring the deck is all about, so I will refrain from spending $45 on the toy.... for now.

Since you like IP Phones... here is part of our test phone bank (one of my company's products is software to manage Cisco IP Telephony products)

All I had to do was surround our bed with a plethora of telephones to turn you on?

Note to self:
No more waxing
No more manicures/pedicures
No more stylish hi-lites
No need to focus on wardrobe or sexy lengerie
No need to brush teeth
No need for expensive o de toilette
No need for a l-o-o-o-o-aaadedededed R56 Lightening Blue MCS

I'll contact Cisco to draft a contract immediately.

As far as I know its "just" scheduled delivery to the dealer today... I'm hoping to at least swing by and get a glimpse of him. If I can, and he's there, I'll definitely take a picture... impatient

Waiting sucks!
