If you have a white cordless phone attached to your hip...
and it rings...
as you accidentially set your yard on fire...
and you just decide to throw the phone...
throw it AWAY from the snow bank, not towards it.
Never underestimate how wonderful sawdust-colored carpet can be. Especially if you're thinking about putting down burgundy carpeting in a room that you have to walk through sawdust to get to.

Having a tough day are we???

Oh my! That's some sage advice there... next I decide to chuck my phone in a snow bank, I'll remember this. Hahahahahahaha!

Well, I don't know nuthin about snow, burgundy carpet or yards that spontaneously combust, but if yer gonna throw a phone when ya live in the desert, make sure the phone isn't dust colored.
Posted by Bruce Bowers (Member # 892) on :
Oh, Mike, we know you just adore your pink Princess phone and would never be guilty of heaving it anywhere...
Posted by Barry Branscum (Member # 445) on :
you stole my joke Bowers!
Posted by Bruce Bowers (Member # 892) on :
C'mon, let's take this outside, Bransum! I want to smoke, anyways... Then we'll go for coffee.

and that's MISTER Bowers to you...
Posted by Mike Pipes (Member # 1573) on :
no no, my phone is clear with purple neon lights inside.
Posted by Bruce Bowers (Member # 892) on :
Mike, you do realize that an attraction to purple signifies a streak of latent homosexuality in men, don't you?
Posted by KARYN BUSH (Member # 1948) on :
like a barbie phone mike?
Posted by John Deaton III (Member # 925) on :
Uh Bruce,...Is that really true? Geeze, now I gotta throw away my purple underwear, my purple socks, my purple t shirts, my purple sunglasses, my purple...
Posted by Ryan Ursta (Member # 1738) on :
Hey man, Purple is one of my logo colors! PINK is the color you're after here! I'm not as queer as a football bat!
Had a guy tell me that "Real men can wear pink".
(yea real gay men)
Posted by Karen Sartain (Member # 241) on :
hhhmmm...and what's wrong with gay men? All the ones I know are intelligent, honest, generous, and most importantly...they all have basic good manners and don't make lame or nasty comments about different groups of people (and they wear ALL colors & come in ALL colors). Play, but not at the expense of someone else.
(edited to add: I like your post Kissy...just doing a little motherly reminding of manners to the 'real' men of the board

Kissy . . . .can we hear 'the rest of the story' now . . .??
Posted by Todd Gill (Member # 2569) on :
I'm burning my pink shirt....and my bra too, yeah you know the one...it has little rhinestone whirly gigs on the "ends!"
Kissy - hope your day gets better....It's better than losing a yellow phone in the yellow snow.
Edit: Just kidding about the bra...that would be the wife's....I'm not "that way."
Edit: Just kidding about the bra being the "wife's" too....
Actually, disregard everything I said...I can't be trusted....and even that's not true....DOH!

The sage continues, this is all from yesterday or today. This morning was so bad and everything I touched turned to crap, so I decided I'd be better off and ahead if I just left, so I went for a haircut.
I need to cut 12 yards each of 2 different color vinyls. My driver for the roland decided to go nuts again, so I reinstalled it a week or so ago but hadn't used it since and thought I had the settings right. Instead of sending 1 to the cutter, I sent a bunch cause the phone was ringing off the hook.... Now, I got a ton of wasted HP vinyl.
Ok, I have some time to coat out the second side of my sign. Yup, paint wrinkled.
Ok, I'll put those last few ceiling tile up in the shop. Measured it TWICE cause I know what kind of day I've been having. That panel is now in the garbage can.
I'm telling ya, I shoulda either stayed in bed or wrapped myself in oven mitts & bubble wrap.

Tomorrow is another day, Kissy. It'll be better, you watch.
I found that when I didn't wait 12 hrs. between coats of One Shot that it wrinkled up like that. The only thing is, I did it about 4 or 5 times before I found out why it was doing that!
Posted by Kissymatina (Member # 2028) on :
Bobbie, this sign has been sitting in the corner for weeks, untouched. It just wrinkled because I touched it.
Posted by Mike Pipes (Member # 1573) on :
Bruce, just call me "stickerwimp".
Hey wait a minute, BRUCE. What kinda name is that?!?! To quote Homer Simpson: "They ruined all our best names like Bruce, and Lance, and Julian. Those were the toughest names we had! Now they're just, uh... Queer."
Posted by Bobbie Rochow (Member # 3341) on :
I feel for you, Kissy, I have had days like that, too. Sometimes I just fold up for the day, & go do something un-sign-related. Then, when I go back the next day, I dig in & fix what I screwed up the day before, & start some new things.
Tomorrow it will be better, you watch!
Posted by Bruce Bowers (Member # 892) on :
Hahahahahaha, Pimp!

I can't believe I haven't checked back to this thread before now!!
I never said this before, but since HE brought it up...you KNOW somethings a little "iffy" about Brucie.
I mean just LISTEN to that high pitched voice of his. COME ON!! No REAL man talks in a FALSETTO all the time.
Go ahead, admit it Bruce(excuse me, MR. BOWERS), Dana can handle it. She still has Letterville, and the Donut shoppe.
Break it to her over a Boston Creme...

Obviously, you've never heard Broooce's voice. Stevo does a great imitation. He calls me at night when I'm in bed and says "HEY!" in Brooce's voice. Love....Jill

actually Jilly, I have hence my post to the contrary...badabing bada bang!
