Thanks for the info. I plan to call the paper on Monday. They are closed today. Its possible someone else put that in the box separately.

Either way, I don't appreciate it being put in with my paper. Its a little too propagandish and intrusive to do so IMO.

Artist is a guy by the name of Dierks Bentley, part of the song goes...

"What Was I Thinkin'?"
 
Becky was a beauty from south Alabama
Her daddy had a heart like a nine-pound hammer
Think he even did a little time in the slammer
What was i thinkin'

She snuck out one night and met me by the front gate
Her daddy came out wavin' that twelve gauge
We tore out the drive he peppered my tailgate
What was i thinkin'
Oh, i knew there'd be hell to pay
But that crossed my mind a little too late...'cause i was

Thinkin''bout a little white tank top sittin' right
There in the middle by me
I was thinkin''bout a long kiss man just gotta get
Goin' where the night might lead
I know what i was feelin'
But what was i thinkin'...what was i thinkin'


So at the very least keep her away from preferences for tank tops and pick-up trucks...
I'll do my best. :lol:

Believe me, even though she's only 6, I'm already concerned about that type of thing. I think she's going to be drop-dead gorgeous when she gets to be a teenager and she's also on the small side - both height and weight. Not a good combination in terms of the predators out there - or even just teenage boys! I wish I could get her interested in martial arts instead of dance. :lol:

I got the strangest thing with my paper today. It was a DVD of a film called "Obsession". It is about "Radical Islam's War Against the West". A pre-release special one hour edition.

It says on the packet that it was seen by 20 million viewers on CNN and FOX.

What the heck? Why is this coming with the paper? I'm afraid to watch it. :ermm:

I think I'll call the news paper people and ask why they included it.
That does sound like a strange thing to get with your paper. I agree that it's a good idea to call and make sure it was the paper who distributed it.

I've been around, but there hasn't been anything new to reply too. I don't think anyone here on this site was affected by the storm. Just busy with weekend stuff probably. :D

I don't usually have the patience to sit and watch a 3 hour long movie, but Lifetime had a pretty good movie on about Coco Chanel Saturday night. I watched it and enjoyed it quite a bit. It helped that there were commercial breaks.

Side question:

When y'all think of Halloween, what images immediately come to mind that you like?

24,

I was at a Sheetz gas station this morning and saw pumpkin shaped Reeces. The wrapper was purple.

I'm thinking a little purple looks good with orange.

What do you thinK?

Purple and orange go together well. Especially when mixing Halloween colors/images. :yes:

Sheetz! :wow:


Sorry, but it has been 17 years since I lived in Pennsylvania and I haven't heard that name since. But I remember that store now that you mentioned it. I used to go to those a lot when I was in college. :D

Is Sheetz just a Pennsylvania thing?

I love my local Sheetz. It's only been around in my neck of the woods for about two years but I get the cheapest gas around town, warm fast food, and a no fee ATM machine. It's the next best thing to heaven.

You ever notice that when you go through the drive-thru at a fast food place and order more than one beverage, that they rarely put those drinks in a cup holder tray without you having to ask?

When they do ask, I usually say Yes. However, I'm always thinking something like, "NOO, I want my drinks to fly all over my car and make a mess instead." :lol:

When I worked in a drive through we were required to ask if there were 2 drinks. Some people put the drinks in the cup holders and don't want the trays. I would find it weird if they had to ask for more than that, unless the car is full of people.

That makes sense. With hot coffee, they probably don't want the drivers suing them over spills. :D

Just been really busy lately. Sometimes I don't feel like getting on the computer at home after I've been fighting with it all day at work. :throwcomp:

Oh, hey, my step-son announced this week that they're going to have another baby next April. That'll be grandchild # 4. :baby: Gawd, that makes me feel old.
