Learn something new everyday..Today in the DAM News was a great story about a festival that was held in Lewisville, Texas 8/30-9-1 just weeks after Woodstock..Babs and I call it Lewisstock. But then we're just plum goofy today..She's wacky from lack of tabacky and I'm..well, I'm just wacky cause it's my nature.

So, the deal is...it's fucking Sunday and I don't want to spend all day typing up this shit for your intertainment and learning...So I googled most of what I could find and if your intrested in a Texas version of Woodstock (and yes, Janis Joplin played) here is all the places you can go to. Can you tell I'm still pissy after the Cowboys loss..plus that fucking Skip is kicking my ass over on best of blog contest..and I tried to go see his blog and my internet explorer won't let me go there..but I got to see his post on the race and he said he was in a contest with Yellowdog Granny from Texas and he really wanted to kick her ass...how dare him? Doesn't he know it's his ass that's going to be kicked? Are you going to let a grown man named "Skip" kick your granny's ass?...But to vote more than once you have to delete everything ..cookies, files, websites and passwords...but I'm worth it aren't I...plus a vote for me is a vote for world peace and you'd get the pleasure of kicking the ass of Skip..really what kind of name is Skip for a growd-up..Skip's a dogs name..it's what you do to my lou..(skip to my lou...no?... young punks) it's what you do to the perfect stone across a lake or like here in West...a tank.. If you Skip a period, you could be in trouble. If you skip school and skip your period everyone in home room will be talking about you behind your back. ...........Ahhh, skip it..so..peace and love and all that shit..now lets go kick Skip's ass.

Whether you win or not....here's the deal. I did visit Skippy's blog. Nothing original there. He used canned/net photos, not much personal stuff, of the posts available on the page, there is only one comment. He even has a canned photo for his header. He must have cast all of those votes himself. I was unimpressed. So, if he wins....well, it's a shame because for me the flavor, tenor and words on your blog kick shriveled up Skippy's blogger ass big time.

Plus....he has ads....can't even support his own blog with friends...so there Skippy.

dearest rosemary: who needs to win a contest when I have friends like you...

I agree his blog totally sucks. He must have some way of stuffing the ballot box.
