I wouldn't doubt it, but I think they originated in Russia.

Very short, very round and always angry about something. I was saying slut in lieu of what I really call her under my breath. :blackeye:
Too bad, as the Judge said, "The world needs dumb s***s too."

Have a safe drive, see you next weekend.

YES, That is exactly what I have muttered, along with a couple of hyphenated words too. It's well deserved. Just not out loud. :blackeye:

Please, imagine if your children are reading up about the impending Maupin weekend and having to grind through this. This is not the forum for unloading curse-outs against fellow workers . . . take it to Free Speech if you want to have an actual discussion about workplace issues that requires cussing like a sailor .

Itinerant Water-Cooled Greetings from Clovis, NM :flower:

Just got to Clovis, NM after an exceedingly frustrating morning. All I had to do before we hit the road was upload my latest saved financial information to this laptop. Should have taken, oh, 5 or so minutes tops. That was before I realized my jump drive with said information gave up the ghost and acted like it infected my desktop with a virus. Two hours later after I input everything by hand into said laptop, we hit the road.

Only one relative rainstorm today which turned out pretty funny. Turned out being the operative! We stopped at a convenience store so I could conveniently use the restroom and when I opened my bright red umbrella as I was stepping out of the car, the wind and rain blew it out completely the opposite way it needed to be! Jeffrey laughed out loud as did the clerk in the store who saw it happen. She was still laughing when I went to the counter afterwards.

The sky presented us with an amazing splash of indigo, violet, radiant gold and a setting sun of bright red coloring the horizon as we neared our destination.

Hasta la vista Tejas. Buenas noches Nuevo Mexico.
