Two guys were sitting at a table, and one of them had drawn something on a napkin. Then one of them said, "Okay, so it's gorilla, you, bozo, bozo, bozo."Julia Buckleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10270211923343731659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-67926086414783490022010-11-15T15:34:02.389-05:002010-11-15T15:34:02.389-05:00We think so much alike, Cricket.

I'd never have guessed your signature would look like Ms. Palin's! Love the buttons book idea, too.<br /><br />Overheard in grocery store:<br /><br />Teen girl #1: Are these the olives Mom wanted?<br />Teen girl #2: Nah. Those aren't done yet.
