I wonder

I've been listening to George Carlin's book Brain Droppings.
At the end, he invites the listener to "come over to [his] house and listen to [him] type".
Even adding "you're perfectly welcome to do so".
Could this be a legitimate offer?
I'd really like to find out by showing up at his doorstep and seeing if I would be invited in. I'd even bring the book as reference to the invitation.

More Neighborhood Drama

This evening the entertainment was someone going down the street smashing back windows out of cars. Lovely. I heard a pop and went to the window to investigate. Call me nosy, I don't care, the noise wasn't normal. I see that the car parked where I normally would park has the entire back window smashed out. Fuck! was the first thing I thought and went to check my car. No damage on my car, but I moved it into the driveway anyway. I was stopped by a couple walking around the neighborhood who tell me that they saw the car that did it but didn't think to get the license. Then the guy says that a bunch of cars all the way up the street have back windows smashed. They left, I went inside and called the police. Not that they can do anything about it now, but I called.


Edit: The assumption is that it was a group of misguided teens hurling bricks (half of a brick to economize) through the back windows of just about every car on the street, both sides. I waited to see if the cop would come to the door, he didn't, but I went outside when I realized that it was my neighbours car. Nothing taken, just the senseless act of destruction.

Tennis anyone?

Get it? 10 S?

This is how it works: Comment on this entry and get a letter, if you want a letter.
Write ten words beginning with that letter, including an explanation of what the word means to you and why.

wickedcricket, gave me "S" and I'm going to try and avoid the first "S" word that comes to mind. If all else fails, I'll use that word last.


1. Sugar - None of that fake stuff for me, I like my sugar real. Tea with sugar, coffee with sugar, sugared yogurt, I even enjoy chewing on sugar cane when I can find it at the Bowl.

2. Sushi - In my top 10 favorite foods. Who would have thought a southern girl like me would vote for a sushi dinner before fried chicken.

3. Southern - me 100%; Seriously, there is some How Southern are You quiz floating around the internet that I score 100% everytime I take it. I am that southern.

4. Serious - I'd like to be less serious all the time.

5. Shake - name of a band that I used to follow religiously.

6. Shag - The dance version of shagging, not the "get your mind out of the gutter curefreak" kind. I love shagging. My friend Warren and I used to push people out of the way to shag during happy hour. I've got very fond memories of happy hour even thought Warren can't dance worth a lick.

7. Syphillis - That one is a two-parter. 1) My good friend Fleda and I were in the same physics class during high school. Because the teacher was a floater, our class was held in Ms. Efird's anatomy room which meant she had nasty things in jars and books with disgusting pictures. Somewhere I have a picture of Fleda with a HORRIFIED look on her face looking at pictures of syphillis symptoms. 2) Syphillis was one of my favorite diseases to talk about when I worked the hotline.

8. Shep - my favorite ex

9. Sailing - one of the things that I want to learn how to do

10. And because I can't think of anything else to avoid using this one - Sex - I don't think that one needs explanation. Oh, all right, I really liked working in an environment where you got to talk about sex all day. People should talk about sex more often.
