Busy, Busy, Busy!!!!

I think the last time that I have even heard Ringo's name in the news was when that movie "Caveman" came out. Then yesterday, he releases this COS (crock of sh*t)!



Busy doing exactly what, Ringo?

Which brings to mind the latest reunion news....(that's family reunion news, not Beatle reunion news which would never happen anyway since half of them are dead.)

My cousin Fred is going to be smoking a ham! I'm still reeling from shock, because it seems like anytime anything needs to get done, Fred can't do it because, like Ringo, he just has so much to do.

I told my dad that he might want to check back with his brother on this and make sure that we aren't putting Fred out. I mean, I sure wouldn't want to impede on his busy schedule of sitting on his a$$ while his dad is out mowing his lawn, cleaning gutters, or doing anything else his dad has absolutely no business doing due to health issues. I mean, I know Fred has his own health issues and I truly do hope that one day, someone will find a cure to being allergic to work. I know Fred won't be the one to find that cure, because he's too busy....sitting on his aforementioned a$$.

We're still having the usual griping and complaining, but it's isolated to just one of my dad's cousins. No one is twisting his arm to come, so why he doesn't stay home is beyond me. He's griped about the place, griped about the cost, griped about the menu. So, in his honor, I decided to gripe about him.

Everyone else is excited about coming, wanting to know what they can do to help, etc.

The location has been determined; it's going to be at the church.

I have a great story about this church that my cousin told me at the last reunion. I love this because it's about my grandmother and I can just hear her saying this, too.

This church is way out in the country and as such, none of the houses are on county water. They all use wells. So when they built the fellowship hall for this church, they ran water to the fellowship hall from a well located on the church property.

This church also has a cemetery.

I did not know until last year that in all the years that this fellowship hall existed, my grandmother absolutely refused to drink or wash her hands in water from the church fellowship hall. She referred to it as "dead water". (well water + cemetery = "dead water"). It sounds gross, I know, but for some reason, I think it's funny.

The only other thing I've got going on is that the Paulding Republican Party is having a debate party tomorrow night at Jalepeno Joe's. I'm debating (ha-ha!) about whether or not to go. In the past, I've done some stuff with Cobb County's Republican Party, but they never had debate parties. Do they boo whenever Obama speaks? I mean, I do live in Paulding so anything is possible, I guess.

Maybe I'll find out.....unless I'm busy, of course!
