From The Hangover (2009)
Alan Garner: Do you know if the hotel is pager friendly?
Lisa: What do you mean?
Alan Garner: I'm not getting a sig' on my beeper.
Lisa: I'm not sure.
Alan Garner: Is there a payphone bank? Buncha payphones? Business.
Lisa: Umm, there's a phone in your room...
Alan Garner: That'll work.

Remember these?? Back in the day when they still had phones in them? I think the last time I saw a working payphone was at the airport.

SUBJECT: Fork

Cam and I were back at the food bank today, continuing to do our part to give hope and respect to those in the community very much like ourselves. I'm including a link to vote for our food bank to receive a $50,000 grant to help offset the costs of a new sorting/distribution facility that they are breaking ground on next month. Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Ant (161/365)

~*~*~


“Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.”

TIME: 5:30 PM
PLACE: Forest Preserve
SUBJECT: Ant

Looks like the spring/summer Project 365 theme will be bugs and buds! I'm fascinated with both and since the wildflowers at the Forest Preserve are beginning to bloom, I have many opportunities to capture both!

TIME: 7:30 PM
PLACE: Church
SUBJECT: Bubblegum

Although the weekly middle school youth group gig is up for the 2009-2010 school year, we don't get a "real" summer break. Events are scheduled throughout the summer - one or two per month. Last night was the open house for incoming 6th graders and their parents, complete with buckets of balls - bubblegum balls!

Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested.

I think these books were meant to be door stops. I received a phone call from Cam's school yesterday. Seems he was missing a few books that had been assigned to him. This was the set of books we had at home. I was thrilled to send these back from whence they came!
