5 W's Rant

At the risk of sounding elitist, WHO on earth, leaves a used toilet on the front lawn with an attached for sale sign? Better yet, WHO buys it?


WHAT in the heck is Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi thinking? And WHO does she think she's fooling?


WHEN will I be able to clean a room without the fear of equal damage being done to a different room?


WHERE is my sanity?


WHY, when there are at least 4 different ways to drive my kids to school does EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM include construction and WHY do I ALWAYS pick the route with the most delays?

I nearly married a guy whose parents had a toilet on the front lawn, as well as a refrigerator, broken cars, a bathtub, and a D.I. pile that reached from the porch to the shingles. WHen I gently suggested that the yard get cleaned up prior to our planned open house, my fiance suggested that we could let the weeds grow up high enough to cover the junk.

Seriously.

Elitist or not, I think that was a good sign that we weren't a good match.

And, then I met Dave. When I saw his well-manicured front lawn, I knew we made for each other.

WHY do I always pick the broken shopping cart! SERIOUSLY!

Wow Brenda, I can't believe you let that one slip by you. ;)

Good one Jana.

My brother, David, bought a used toilet once - for a party; they had a "pot" party; filled the bowl with lemonaid (in a separate bowl, of course) I know, I have weird siblings ;)

Kat: There is nothing like getting a better offer. That, and I couldn't stand his mother.

Melanie, my oldest daughter, was asked to a dance by the boy putting a toilet on our front steps.(with some cute saying of-course). We had no idea how long it had been there by time we all got home, but I made her IMMEDIATELY reply using the same toilet.

A pot party sounds fun, and I can totally see the virtues of asking a girl out with a potty (HUH???) *laughing* This one was priced at $50 (actually there are two I don't the price is for the set) seems a bit high for the jokester crowd. Well its on the way to school so I have 2 1/2 weeks left to keep you updated on the sale progress.
