The common and continual mischiefs of the spirit of party are sufficient to make it the interest and duty of a wise people to discourage and restrain it.

Thirteen "New Home Firsts"

  1. First meal eaten- Carne Asada burrito from Losbetos. Maybe the best burrito in a city filled with burritos, and it's right around the corner now.
  2. First meal prepared once the kitchen was ready- Pizza Fish.
  3. First neighbor met- Ruben next door. He's a homebrewer also.
  4. First thing not working right- The toilet handle. You have to jiggle it or it will flush forever.
  5. First movie watched-- Raiders of the Lost Ark. No particular reason, it just came up on the Netflix queue.
  6. First CD listened to- Miles Davis, Kind Of Blue
  7. First bootleg listened to/watched - Audio- Anders Osbourne w/ Big Chief Monk Boudreax 10-23-02 State Theater, Falls Church Va    - Video- Led Zeppelin, Knebworth, 1979      
  8. First beer- Boulder Beer's Planet Porter                 
  9. First friend to see the new place- Amy C., when she helped me move.   
  10. First mystery- what (or who) is buried in the back yard that Angus wants to dig up? 
  11. First TV show I thought of when I saw the oven- The Dick Van Dyke Show
  12. First freaky dream- I'm in my new place (it's not the place I actually live in, but in the dream I understand that it is my new place. You know how dreams are.) I'm just going about my business at about bedtime, and I'm alone in the living room, when I hear a voice from in the room say "Get out of my house!". Then another voice says "Go to bed." The second voice is even scarier because it is trying to sound reassuring.
  13. First thing Angus got in trouble for-- crapping on the floor. I was RIGHT THERE and he didn't even ask to go out. Luckily, it was one of the loafy ones.

She and her boyfriend woke me up at 2 AM arguing out in the street. He was wasted, and she was trying to keep him from driving. She succeeded.

I have NO idea why the fool was putting up a fight.

Pizza fish is an invention of my mom's, and it is YUMMY. If you're nice, I'll tell you how to make it.

That was a cool 13! Funny that you had a first thing not working right...ALREADY!!

Yeah, about that - Replace the flapper. It's not seating right. Probably old and worn out.

You're welcome. Oh, and don't use toilet tablets. The bleach in them destroys the rubber flapper and you'll be right back where you started from in no time.

Actually, it's the chain. It's not there anymore, and someone tried to use a wire to replace it. They probably got tired of waiting forour saddass property manager to do it.

Yeah, could be. If I were you, I'd get a flapper and chain, replace both, and happiness will ensue. They are cheap. Tip: Turn the water off at the valve, and take the old flapper with you. There are a number of disserent styles.

Thanks for getting my back with Billo.

If I were you, I'd get a flapper and chain.......


That sounds like a good time, but what about the toilet?
Mark

Fix the toilet later.....

Hey man, Billo's head exploded again over at Paula's. LMAO.

And now he's calling me a bigot at his site. That's funny. The year before last I was called the enemy of homosexuals for blogging about a conservative issue. This year I'm a bigot for siding with homosexuals on an issue of diversity. Can't we all just get along, fer chrissake?

Without even knowing what it is? How about an open mind, eh?

I'll bet that you're imagining something very unlike the reality.
