The first versio...Ann Marie - Yes indeed, I agree. The first version of this rambling post ended with me saying that I"d like to chunk my dirty laundry into the creek. <br /><br />Mark-1973? That tuxedo jacket is so old it probably disintegrated into thin air. (Sorry, I couldn't resist.) And would you care to share with us why you were on top of a telephone pole in a tuxedo? Were you trying to place an outgoing call? Or perhaps since those were the days of party lines, you decided to dress for the party?<br /><br />Baroness-Ha! Yes, anything to avoid another episode of Close Encounters of the Insect Kind. *shudder*<br /><br />BHE-Have you been to one? Heard of one? Or just talking about heaving stuff into the back yard,which we all do around here. (Why stuff something in a trash bag that the racoons will only drag to town and back?) I'd never heard of a punkin chunkin before this week, though, so I must be living under a rock that's beneath a rock that sits 12 feet below a paved parking lot.<br /><br />Daryl - The nonsset is so deep we need hipboots to walk through it!<br /><br />NNG-You must chunk the punkins before they start reeking, that's what the word verification was trying to say.<br /><br />Meg-Could make a great Christmas gift! (To me, from me.)<br /><br />Foolery- Yes, it's Mark from Blog Fest talking about 1973-era tuxedos on top of telephone poles but who needs to share the story, the whole story and nothing but the story. <br /><br />MPM-You'll actually be here during said event, so that's not outside the realm of possibility...<br /><br />Monday's work day is over. Hallelujah. Thanks to you all for humoring me and commenting. I truly appreciate it.Chesapeake Bay Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07187804072769932131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-81063506517517352932009-11-02T14:19:57.273-05:002009-11-02T14:19:57.273-05:00I say we sneak down there under cover of darkness ...I say we sneak down there under cover of darkness and steal--erm--borrow their catapult.
