But wait! Everyone was standing up! Snapping out of his daydream Mookie realized that everyone was opening the song book. Suddenly a noise like a funeral dirge kicked up. Oh, was that ----"singing"??? He knew one thing for sure, the Witnesses needed to recruit a songwriter-and quick! Someone on the order of Charles Wesley, someone who could write a peppy little ditty unlike this torturous, woeful, "poor me" dreck that poured fort from the speakers! Maybe someone like...

LET US TRY AN EXQUISITE CORPSE
by Terry inamong surrealist techniques exploiting the mystique of accident was a kind of collective collage of words or images called the cadavre exquis (exquisite corpse).
based on an old parlor game, it was played by several people, each of whom would write a phrase on a sheet of paper, fold the paper to conceal part of it, and pass it on to the next player for his contribution.
i will begin the story.

Although I'm in a better mood today, I am still annoyed by southern people who, after you ask them a question, look at you blankly and say, "Do what now?" GRRRRR!
Drive thru people who ask "Do you want fries with that?" after I've ordered. If I wanted fries I'd have asked for them!
People who won't let you over when you're signalling.
People who saw the sign 6 miles ago that said the lane was ending, but still zoom to the very last inch of the ending lane, then try to merge-I won't let them in, even if they signal.

by Netty ini cant bring myself to get into voting.
i am registered, but when its time to vote, i just really never fell the urge to get there and get it done.

Yep - even the locals. The majority of the people in my county want a slowdown put on develpment-our schools are over crowded, the roads are over crowded, services like fire and police are maxxed out, but the county commissioners keep ramrodding developments through no matter how many people protest. It's very discouraging. They get voted out, but a new crowd comes in anti-development and turns pro-development over night. Recently they approved a development of 2000 houses on a 2 lane road that is already ridiculously overcrowded.I wash my hands of it.

Okay, add to that trying to get a publication ready by deadline and being asked to "cover the phones", which means answering it every 20 seconds and answering dumb questions.
Gee, I wonder if I'm pmsing...I'm usually so SWEET!

I drink tea-Lipton with milk and sugar- and listen to Jazz-the soothing stuff like Chris Botti and Keiko Matsui.

I have 3 kids. They are 21, 18 and 14. When they were children they threw plenty of fits. I would walk them out of the store or restaurant, not turn my head like I have no idea where the noise is coming from. Every store I go into seems to come equipped with a screaming kid. Take them outside, people, no one wants to hear it. Take them home if it's nap time!

I used to be a diehard voter until I realized that politicians are only out for their own gain and don't care what their constituants want unless the constituants are in the position to line the pockets of the politicians. Until they put the choice "none of the above" on a ballot I will never vote again.
