Remember when Mac had a mouse problem?

Now he has a rat problem, the two legged kind.

I do know something about opening up my house to others, my son and his wife, dog and now new baby moved in just over a year ago. They are moving to another trailer in the part next week, I get my house back. I am soooooooo excited. It will just be me, Rupert and Nelly.

That's only in question because you haven't seen Uncle Mackie's place. The first time I visited him, his second comment (after saying "hello") was "Don't worry, there hasn't been a drive-by shooting on this block, yet."

I didn't worry about then, nor on any subsequent visit. If you're ever in the neighborhood, give him a visit....

There was a time during the Great Depression when hobos were more common and were somewhat respected for their free living lifestyle. If I recall, the hobos of that era had their own language of a sorts and symbols were used to mark streets and houses that were either friendly to them or dangerous.

I need to do a lil research on them.

My grandmother's house was marked. She fed a lot of hobos and as a nurse she would dress wounds. I remember her saying many would do small jobs as thanks.

Yes a "true" hobo is not a bum or a crook he expects to work in exchange for either a meal or a place to stay the night and then he moves on. Dave

When I awoke at 8:00am this morning I thought, "hooray, all my money is in and I can pay bills." It appears only my $300 Social Security check came in. I went to buy basic groceries before paying all my utilities and the ATM bounced.

I called Wells Fargo who informed me my check was devoured by $400 in overdraft fees????. I pleaded for mercy based upon my senility and the fees were cancelled. In addition, the wonderful lady banker said she would redeposit $140 in my account tomorrow.

It seems my SSI comes in on Wednesday. I had told my creditors I'd pay them on Sept 2. Now it looks most will have to wait till September 3.

All's well that ends well.

They give free money for senility now? No wonder the EA is never strapped for cash.

Oh, we are, we are. The EA always needs donations. Please give if you can, to the EA.

Kristoff knows the addy to donate to. We always need funds.

Symbols used by hobos to mark houses in the 1920's - 1930's

Today I painfully forked out $455 to cover Electricity, Cable, Water Company and Telephone company. I didn't pay gas so I could have $60.00 towards groceries. The gas might be shut off but, since it's summer, I won't freeze

I just now finished transferring my phone service from Verizon to Time Warner Roadrunner. The new service was free for a month with free installation. The monthly charge is $19.00 plus free unlimited long distance calling.

This is a helluva lot better than Verizon.

[Riverwind (imported)]

WOW and I thought my utilities were bad.

Is it true that the number of posts MacWolf made is equal to his age?

2074 the last time I looked.

Liz gave me a choice today: a cake or homemade tacos. I chose the tacos.

Sometimes life sucks:

Monday I received a robotic call from Social Security saying, "someone at this address has an appointment Wednesday morning at 10:30am."

So, this morning i quickly walked the one mile to their office. It was then I found out I didn't have an appointment. My neighbor, who has no phone, gave SS my number so the appointment was meant for her.

By the time I got back home, I was tired and thirsty. I grabbed an ice cold DietCoke and then I was happy again.

You should have asked for a case of DietCoke for being her answering service.
