life is minty with you around.
I think I just got someone put in the slammer. Got a call from a bail bonds lady(sounded fierce). Las Vegas Bail Bonds. Looking for someone who's not me asking about paying a bond for someone I don't know. "...need to call me back immediately or I have no choice but to put him back in jail".

I thought about calling the number back to explain the mix up...but it was a 973 number, why would a Las Vegas bail bonds-lady have a 973 area code? I'm not walking into that trap. Sorry Hector, tonight I raise my glass to you.

But anyway. I came back from the dead to give you this, RPM '08 So sign up and spread word, only two days left!

I'll leave you with some quotes:
"Few will have the greatness to bend history; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total of all those acts will be written the history of this generation ... It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is thus shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance." ~Bobby Kennedy

"Anyone who says he can see through women is missing a lot." ~Groucho Marx

"Wisdom comes with winters" ~Oscar Wilde
