SPRINGFIELD, IL - Springfield may have had its first visit from a Beatle on Saturday afternoon, when someone who sure looked like Sir Paul McCartney strolled into the Circle K gas station/convenience store, 3261 Clear Lake Ave. The five friends who had their picture taken with the visitor say theres no question it was McCartney. McCartneys publicist in the United Kingdom has not been reachable this afternoon to confirm the singers whereabouts.
Three Italian nuns die and go to heaven. At the Pearly Gates, they are met by St. Peter. He says, Sisters, you all led such exemplary lives that the Lord is granting you six months to go back to earth and be anyone you wish to be.
The first nun says, I want to be Sophia Loren; And *poof* shes gone.
The second says, I want to be Madonna and *poof* shes gone.
The third says, I want to be Sara Pipalini..
St. Peter looks perplexed. Who? he asked.
Sara Pipalini; replies the nun.
St. Peter shakes his head and says, Im sorry, but that name just doesnt ring a bell.
The nun then takes a newspaper out of her habit and hands it to St. Peter.
St. Peter reads the paper and starts laughing. He hands it back to her and says.
No sister, the paper says it was the Sahara Pipeline that was laid by 1,400 men in 6 months.
We had thought Ben might come home from Watson yesterday but he called and said he would be staying another day because the weather was not so good for driving down there. Sounded like a good plan to me too!
Tracey and I spent a little time installing the headset in her helmet and pairing it up with my headset. We didnt put mine in the helmet yet because we plan to use it on our trip back from Freeport when we bring her scooter home. She will be on the scooter and I will be in the car so we rigged the headset up to a ball cap so I can talk with her on the trip. Looks weird but it works.
I also spent some time talking to the loan guy at the bank. We did some refinancing to take advantage of the lower rates but they didnt lock the lower rate in for two weeks and charged me interest at the higher rate for those two weeks. I gave him a rather large dose of sarcasm because I dont think I should have to pay for them taking their sweet time administering the paperwork. Their laziness shouldnt cost me nearly $60 but Im not interested in spending considerably more than that taking them to court and they know it. They are all a bunch greedy shysters as far as I am concerned!
