You know, I was going to leave some clever, irrelevant comment here, but then I thought, "This guy knows what I go through every day, and he's describing just fine. What can I tell him except I'm here for him." I am, and I'm glad you are there for them. Great set of blogs big boy. Yeah, I just couldn't resist a smart-ass comment. Keep up the good work.
Sitting here dumbfounded...... My first thought was you have got to be kidding! Then thought how in the world do you even deal with someone who does not even know what the word alert means????? My hat off to you!
Its sad, but..............ROFL!!!!
We spent last night at work on urbandictionary.com looking up words we hear everyday: trippin', clownin', fell out, etc.
Quite a hoot.
