  15. Why yes, British commercial on pirated NHL game~I am excited to see Frankie Finnegan Jr. race a weird car on a dirt track. How did you know?
  16. Our zombie Honda came back to life today. Tried a test, turned the key...& in my mind, the door burst up through the dirt of a fresh grave.
  17. The Kidder driveway is turning into the place where little fuel pumps go to tell ghost stories. Another one added to the graveyard today. :(
  18. At lacrosse, visiting team is from England--> hearing to the fabulous accents--> a good chance I'll talk like that for the evening. Cheerio.
