I was cleaning up my mailbox and found this... Can she see the road? I think she's having trouble...

^Try people fighting for parking spaces close to the front of the gym! You're there for exercise, let's start by doing a little walking! @ astroworldfan1: I figured out the missing part. "ion kno" = "I want to know" Looks like she forgot to hit the space bar and was going to spell "want".. well... "one". She is a mess. As a result I had to update my website with comment about emailing the webmaster: http://www.houseofdebbie.com/page7/page7.html Anyway, my rant for today involves the sewer pipes in our neighborhood. They're backed up and they flooded the houses in our neighborhood. So we have to keep the downstairs bathroom door closedand put towels around the toilet in case it backs up again. I wrote about it on my personal blog if you want to read it there, since it involves language that's more bathroom humor and may be offensive to some. But it's been three days and it doesn't look like the problem is solved and sewer water is leaking into the parking lot. Good thing my sinuses are clogged!

You want the She-Ra costume, huh? I think I used to have a he-man action figure when I was younger. Ah the days when Christmas was cheap... well cheaper than finding an PS3 or Xbox under your tree... She-ra doll on ebay... she fell on hard times!

Can anyone translate this email I received about my web site? I think they're asking for something. My head hurts... Sounds like a cry for help to me.

^Sounds like bar friends issues rather than gay friends. It depends where you meet them; if you meet them at the bar chances are that's what they're gonna be all about. I don't try to make acquaintances met in a bar my friends, unless they're making an effort to do things outside of a bar. People in their 20s aren't going to care too much beyond partying... it's not until their 30's they start slowing down... or life gets slowed down for them. So if I head out for an evening I just put people in groups and deal with them that way. If someone wants to come out of the "bar" category, that's great. But I don't expect them to be my new best friend. I have straight and gay bar friends and straight and gay good friends. I don't mix 'em up. Funny enough, you know where I met my best friend? On Halloween and he was in drag looking a mess and he knew it. We spent most of the night cracking jokes and talking about various things. We started hanging out, having dinner, going to movies and taking road trips after that. When we met he was working a part time dead end job; he said that the other people he knew weren't going anywhere in life and I had inspired him to go back to school and get a good job. He now has his masters and is a project manager at a large company. So you never know about people; if you don't have the "look down on people" attitude, you may end up with a good friend that you can inspire do better just by seeing how you're living your life. I've been friends with this guy for over 10 years. Of course, if you don't have that much don't expect much. My other good friends were met while doing volunteer work. Your chances for finding good friends go up when doing something in common. So if you aren't meeting good people one place, try something different.

No prob. As a person that knows, how should I say, "the many colors of that rainbow": Bi, transgendered, lesbians, female impersonators, "butch", "fem", porn stars, "escorts", etc, I don't think it's fair or right to judge anyone on outward appearances. It's what's on the inside that counts and how they treat you. People speak badly of some of the more feminine people of the community, but don't recall any straight-acting gay men fighting the police in the Stonewall bar, which started the Pride movement--so I give them credit. If it wasn't for people like them, most people would still be hiding in the closet. I do find it funny, however, that most of my "straight-acting" friends are scared to jump on coasters and the more "feminine" ones don't mind at all. I was lucky enough to have one boyfriend that I used to ride coasters with; but I already said my next boyfriend is going to be cute but geeky... like me. But as you get older, you'll find that if someone truly wants to be your friend and you have the same interests and get along, you better keep them. You're gonna let yourself down and waste time with people that have a certain look or mannerisms, but treat you like crap. But guess who most people run after and are unhappy for it? Besides, some of the people that have said the same words as you wind up being the biggest "girls" I've ever met. I just look at them and say "Look, it's Cleopatra. Queen of Denial." Not saying that to read, but just to say don't worry about what others think of you. You have to be comfortable with yourself and however you want to express yourself. It's your life. Live it. Terry "Been called momma, sister and Popi" Weaver P.S. I think issues hanging out with feminine persons have more to do with you than the other person. It's a part of not being comfortable with your identity yet. I went through it too. But you'll find that they're a blast to be around. They're usually outgoing so they know a lot of people which makes for a fun night in a bar with them. Ohh the stories I had that started with hanging out with drag queens and they introduced me to other guys...

You must be new. Otherwise, you wouldn't care if people could tell. After all, they don't pay your bills. Anyway, that type of attitude gets on my nerves really fast. Sorry if I offend anyone. Terry

Definitely do SFGAm. It has more of a selection of rides and a bigger park. Get the Gold Q-bot though so you can get on more rides. The only reason I could see you doing SFSTL if you were also heading down into Branson to go to Silver Dollar City or Worlds of Fun. I would imagine that much driving would be painful, unless you like to drive (I did this once, but then I like to drive and I had time to do it). Terry

To a straw? I would have went with pipe or pole. Anyway, I'm glad the defragmenting worked. I was gonna say that; sounds like you're probably downloading a lot of stuff (and deleting it) and that fragments the drive fairly quickly.

^Do you think last weekend an example? I took a look Sunday evening and there were a few eye openers. That 'Froggie' lyric madness was out of control... then I spit out my beer when I saw Wes' response... Good one Wes!

^Yes, but haven't touched it in a while. All my friends know to catch me on AIM or MSN. I have enough trouble keeping my myspace maintained! update: ew!!!... how did my other ex get linked in to my profile!?!

The splash guard under my car came off while slowly crossing a slightly flooded street (typical in FL after a lot of rain). Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose? Seems like it didn't guard anything! The repair shop put it back on for free though.

Yeah my ex from Argentina has me on his Hi5. I saw some of those profiles... some of those pics of his friends were naughty!

So if I pick up someone this weekend, I can use that as an excuse to put him out? "You gotta go, I got to get my hour back." Terry

^Well if you can tell, I won't spoil it for you. But the flames are burning quite brightly on especially one... and he may be going home thursday. Terry

Whoops! File this under "How not to earn your money if you want to break into show business": http://www.sun-sentinel.com/entertainment/sfl-flapeople0304sbmar04,0,6658552.story Not the first time, won't be the last. He may earn himself a little more buzz this competition though... Is it me or is there a disproportionate amount of gay contestants this year? Terry

I ordered a copy of Guitar Hero III for the PC earlier this week for $59 with expedited shipping. Anyway I get an email offline telling me that the shipping wasn't enough and they wanted an additional $31 to ship the product via paypal. Doesn't sound like my problem to me when they accepted my payment. I wrote them back saying "I could have gotten it for $79 directly from amazon with 2 day shipping. If you can't send it out at the agreed on price, let me know and I'll cancel the order." I think I will cancel the order and send the email that they sent to Amazon and they can deal with them.

The power is back on at my house, but my roommate said it's horrible traffic in the area...I work in Lauderdale but live in Miami so I guess I'm heading to Boomers for a bit or eating dinner with a friend. That will give traffic a bit to die down.

I was eating in the lunchroom and saw the breaking story on CNN of the Miami power outage as the cameras scrolled past my house. Ooops! Guess I'll be going to Boomers tonight if they can't get the power back on... Terry

Please don't tell me tempers were flaring over fast passes... Anyway, I like the Q-Bot systems. Usually I end up going to a park by myself so I usually get one so I'm not wasting time in line. It's a good thing to finish up a park in a half day and head back to the hotel to get some rest before heading out clubbing. The fast pass systems at disney are ok, but most times you have to get there early so you don't have to wait all day for the ride you really want. I know on the Midwest trip the Gold Q-bot was a must to get everyone through the park as quickly as possible. That line at Superman was outrageous! Terry

I installed my new Nvidia 8800GT on my "hackintosh" and it works! I also started importing my windows development hard drive images to run under the Mac OS as well. All my wireless N cards showed up yesterday so I can upgrade the macs that Apple chooses to ignore. Now I have set up the "Windows" side of my machine and test my new set up with a game! Terry

^Not sure if it was the whole ham, but she stole a pretty large size and it wasn't steaks. She was a "big" girl.

A lady was trying to shoplift meat out of the grocery store. As she got to the front door, one of the packages drops out from under her skirt. Everyone looks at her. She quickly yells "Who threw that ham at me!?!" (true story btw) Terry

" Cosmopolitan Virtual Makeover" My body builder friend is mad because I got him "dolled" up in braids.
