[Artemisia] Uprising--do I need to pack the WeedWhacker?

Thu Jun 12 15:01:45 CDT 2008

Any chance I can ship my two kids off to the farm this summer for a few
weeks? They need "character building" that doesn't involve the Xbox 360.

You know you're entering a bachelor pad when the tenant prefaces the
appearance, not with "It's the maid's day off," but with "Don't pet the fur
in the corner. It's not an animal."

Hi Brynki,

Oh yeah!  Those memories come back as well.  Especially when Roland and I 
hauled the 100 hay bales for Marcello's castle.  I hauled hay for summer 
money in high school.....

Dad always said such things "build character"....  I tried passing that line

on to Roland...he didn't buy it any better than I did back then.

See ya at Uprising!

Alan
