We can't all be perfect. Good thing there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

I remembered something I meant to elaborate on but forgot to in my original post. I said my heritage is mutt. Well, my heritage is really dysfunctional mutt. Here are the 3 deadly combinations in my past, (along with a couple of minor influences from way back that I'm not aware of): Cherokee Indian (my Papa Chickie was 1/2 Cherokee), Italian and German.
Now you all know why I'm so messed up.............
Papa Chickie was my Mom's Dad. He looked like Colonel Sanders. One day when I was about 15 months old, we walked into the local KFC, which was called Kentucky Fried Chicken back then, and they had a Colonel Sanders' statue standing just to the left of the door in the corner. I ran to it, looked up and said, "Papa Chickie". Of course everyone laughed and the name stuck. He died 2 months later.......

I had an alias that I used in real life when I was in collections. It was "David Payne". I'm sure the deadbeats I had to collect from thought I was a real "PAIN"!
We used aliases so that our debtors wouldn't come to our house and kick our butts. One of the other collectors had the alias William Burns, or BILL Burns!

That's funny. I actually rode the bus in 10th grade with a guy named Bill Burns and I never thought of that........

I modified my original post. I originally said Leno but changed to Letterman, but not because of anything any of you said. See my original post and my answer to Letterman or Leno: question for an explanation. I'm too lazy to repeat myself. I repeat myself all day long as it is.

Well, I was being real, but this past week, Letterman has taken a turn for the better. We still usually watch Letterman because that channel comes in clear and the channel Leno comes on is usually a little fuzzy. I had actually gotten to where I would rather watch Leno than Letterman, because of the stupid stuff on his show. Now he's been having at least 2 guests (ie less stupid stuff).

I find Leno's jokes lame and lackadaisical, same old SUV gas jokes, same old Dick Chaney(SP?), same old, same old, even his cover ups for the bombs are lame. Letterman at least is zany. Conan is himself, and that makes it funny, I still pick him.

yeah, I still tend to watch Letterman at the beginning and switch back and forth. I've just been getting lackadaisical of the fluff they've been putting on Letterman

there's a church I drive by most days with a sign out front that says something like that church is the place where YOU are important.
I find that sorta disgusting, the idea that a church should "market" themselves to you with statements like that. Oops bet this might get moved.
