Sanford and Son stopped by this morning and hauled off the fridge. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!

Really????

Within the last hour, my next door neighbor's Landlord dropped this old, nasty refrigerator in front of MY house. He has about 6 ft. of property in front of my house. This is only symptomatic of the larger problem with this property.

I've called the City to come pick it up. Today is our pick up day (they come around 8:00 am). They are wrapping up their day, so it is quite likely that they won't get here until next Monday. If they don't come until next week, I have a plan.

Stay tuned...

Family

Some friends introduced our family to a smashing game. It's called Family. Here's how it's played...

Everyone writes a name on a piece of paper. Make sure it's a name that isn't one people would expect from you (Grandma may want to write down MC Hammer for her name). A Reader reads all the names from the hat/jar. Then go around the room guessing who picked what name. Each person gets a turn (excluding the Reader). If a person guesses the correct name, that player becomes part of the guesser's "family". The one that guessed correctly is the head of the family. He will tell the team members his name. They will then collaborate about remaining players. If you guess the name of the head of a family correctly, you get the whole family, and become it's head. A turn of guessing continues until a wrong guess. Play continues around room. The next person to guess correctly becomes head of another "family". Last man/family standing wins!

This is by far one of the best crowd mixers I've ever played. Give it a go, and let me know what you think.

Name It

I need your help. I am going to try my hand at a little cottage industry with my eldest child installing these raised organic gardens in the greater Charlotte, NC area. I need a catchy name. Put your minds on it, send your ideas to me @ Hcksbanjer@aol.com. I will send the winner a prize. Thanks!!!!
