I usually feel terrible the day after St. Patrick's Day. Not this year. I cut a 1"x1" square off a Shamwow and ate it before I went out. Felt great today. Thanks Vince.

(Actually kids, I'm just kidding. Don't try this at home.)

Plans have finally been approved for the George W. Bush Presidential Library. Mr. Bush was especially impressed with the location and decor of the new structure stating that he thought it was "homey" and it brought back memories of his early days in the White House. Here the former president enjoys a challenging game of "Find Your Military Records" on a computer. The score is 1,352-0 in favor of the computer.
i know they're in here somewhere, my daddy said so

Stoney, you're challenging OG for the title of the most humorous poster. That's a real roar. I was at another wake this past monday for a friend I grew up with. Most of the people in attendance were former auto and steel workers. Someone made a crack about Bush. It started a whole cascade of angry comments. The hostility was palpable. I've never seen such outright disrespect and hostility toward a politician in my life. I hope for his sake he never attends any events around Detroit without major Secret Service protection.

BTW, President Obama's portrait went up on the wall in the main entrance of the VA Medical Center in A2 today. Yes! Everyone was commenting. It was pointed out to me as soon as I walked in the door. Yes!

OG, your creativity, when it comes to methods to continue and improve your abusing, is truly amazing. Would you send an autographed, 'OG's Collected Edition of Drinking, Dropping, Smoking and Dumpster Diving Tips', to all of us GarWoodians, in preparation for our re-union? I'll need lots of help if I'm going to hang with you.

Hey OG did you pass that Shamwow yet. Did you lose any weight. It's supposed to absorb ten time its weight. Hey that might be a new diet you have discovered. Your going to be rich.

Sad news,
Someone sent a guy that works in our office a CD and for safety, they wrapped it in a ShamWow and placed it in a box. I've got a feeling they were trying to figure out some way to get rid of their ShamWow because they had enough of it wrapped around the CD to cover a couch. Anyway, I was surprised, no shocked, that the ShamWow looks and feels like a piece of felt. That's about it. We took it out for a test run and it didn't pick up much of anything. It just sort of pushes it around. So, my advice. Save your money and buy a Snuggie. With the weather getting warmer, they'll probably be going on sale. Maybe 4 for $19.95.
I am going to make a bib out of another piece of ShamWow. I'll let you know how that works.

A Mickey Finn (or simply Mickey) is a slang term for a drink laced with a drug (especially chloral hydrate) given to someone without their knowledge in order to incapacitate them. Serving someone a Mickey Finn is most commonly referred to as slipping a mickey
Mr.Hoover..You wouldn't be implying that our beloved Bushmak would dream of doing such a thing!
and I noticed that you did some editing there ...no doubt that kept you out of trouble !!!
