I've never gone cow tipping, but I have dropped a hamburger on the floor.

Does that count?

Only if it was at a hamburger from a restaurant other then McDonalds's, Howdy. Mickey D's doesn't count as real food. Pretty sure their food is made by applying the square root of negative one idea to real food.

iFood?

Fôd?

Something like that, I meant that it's imaginary and not really food. Pretty sure they use those cloned cows that Howdy grew in his basement.

Hey, the only things in my basement are homemade marmalade and tied up hobos.

Don't act like you got rid of the Pennywise with the nipple tassels

Howdy, you forget you made me pay that "admission fee" to see your basement. By the way, can I have my fetid scab collection back? Pretty sure I dropped the container down there. O.o Sorry.

@Su ~ Nah, i've moved him to the service porch, so he can shake it for the neighbors.

That reminds me that I started reading 'It' last year and didn't finish.

@Queen ~ Admission fee?! You gave me a half eaten box of Cracker Jacks and a slap on the ass.

I should sue you for harassment. ... Well in this case 'his-ass-ment'.

... And I gave your scabs to Cherry so she'd whitewash my fence.

That half eaten box of cracker jacks was a collectable! You didn't honestly believe Elvis died of a heart attack did you? As for the ass slap, what can I say, heat of the moment... seeing your basement got me all excited. His-ass-ment a lot to me.

Well damn! I'll count the scabs as collateral damage and start a new collection... wait! What fence? I don't recall you having a fence!

Now all I can imagine is Pennywise shaking it for people. Quite amusing.

I've never read the book. Just recently watched the movie for the first time.

Go ahead and skip reading the book insomnia by Stephen king. It'll make you an insomniac! I read it and could not tell you what it was about. Apparently that would be mission accomplished. Holy hell my phone sucks at predicting text. It spelled out muffin accomplished. Which I kind of like better.

I started reading It once and failed to finish as well. I just couldn't keep all the characters straight, which made it hard to jump into if I hadn't picked it up in a while.

... Says the person wanting to give the ASoIaF books a go...

ASoIaf?! I totally want to read Apples Soar Off Into a Fog!

... *doesn't know what *ASoIaF* is*

...

I was good at keeping track of the characters in IT. Truthfully, it was the domestic violence that made me put the book down. I don't like violence toward women. --- Cherry may remember that there was one particular shithead character in the book who gets left behind, but reappears later in the book. And I got to that part and I was like, "I don't want to read this now. I'll do it later." ... And I never did. But I hope to at some point.

Apples Soar Off Into a Fog sounds like it could be a good children's book....

Pretty sure Cherry means A Song of Ice and Fire AKA Game of Thrones.

UGH, THAT GUY COMES BACK? I hadn't gotten that far. Fuck that guy!

And yes, Game of Thrones.

I keep wanting new books in the Women of the Otherworld series that I love so much.

We set a record today for moisture. It rained, therefore it was record setting.

I feel like Apples Soar Off Into a Fog would be a subtle, yet poignant, tale about love, loss and redemption.

There's this guy. He owns an apple orchard. His wife passed the year before and now he's all alone. Will he ever love again? He doesn't think so. Then there's this lady. She uh... used to rope bulls in the rodeo. But after years of hard livin' and hard drinkin', it's time to retire to the easy life. But the demons from her past fill her soul with conflict. She never believed in love and he thinks it's impossible and then some stuff happens and uh... there's a talking apple and shit. I dunno.

...

@Queen ~ I like rain. :3

Howdy, I feel like your store idea needs a little more redemption for the two characters. Like they are conflicted about their emotions and the situation they are in, but they forge ahead with a cider press and the talking ale becomes a victim of horrific work place accident since they have him as the foreman of the cider press faculty.

Oh man, the thunder and lightning were off the chain last night.

Maybe it's the death of the apple that brings the two together. Maybe years ago, the woman lost an apple during a rodeo and it's haunted her ever since.

...

I wish we had some rain or something here. It was hot as balls today.

Pretty sure Arizona has turned into a clan baking pot. We had the remains of whatever hurricane was down in Mexico so we were over cast and humid. This ain't the south! My hair does not appreciate the moisture. Ugh.

That's so tragic that she lost an apple in a rodeo. Was it squished and made into apple sauce or did some thing eat it? I feel like some thing ate it and the screams it emitted are what haunt her today.

You're preachin' to the choir. This is California. We get heat, but it's dry heat. At least it always is in my little bit California. I bitch and moan about it, but i've handled the heat for the past 8 million summers.

But yesterday and today, it's been downright muggy. And I don't deal with humidity well. I feels like I can't breathe and I get all surly. And here I was sayin' that i'd like some rain. It's been raining all day and it's still humid. Feh! :P

...

The apple was eaten by a bull. And also, the woman and the apple were engaged to be married.

I'm more Northern than Howdy in Cali, but we've been overcast and windy, too. The rain hasn't been very strong, just some here and there, but the wind is heavy.

But it's regularly humid in my part, due to all the lakes, rivers, canals, and orchards. It makes it all muggy, even in the middle of summer. It can be awful.

THE DESERT IS NOT SUPPOSE TO BE THIS HUMID...I feel better now. Today was just terrible as hell. Had to braid the hair to keep the hair from completely frizzing out. Got home and had no will to go to the gym. Sweated my ass off...surprised I have any water left in me. Sucking bottle after bottle now trying to make up for it. We'll be hitting the gym tomorrow and Friday.

Howdy that is just tragic...was she going to be a virgin bride? And was it a Summer wedding?

Suona, where in Nor Cal? I was born up there, at Travis AFB near Vacaville. Grew up in Winters, just 13 miles from Davis. Loved it up there, but you are right. The summers can get down right humid because of the moisture getting stuck in the bowl.

I'm further north than that. More around Sacramento, but even still more Northeast than that. But yes, very hot and very humid.
