How come regular flavored Tootsie Rolls taste like shit and the fruit-flavored ones taste awesome?

Terry’s bachelor party is going to be spastically awesome. It makes me want to get married all over again to have another one of my own.

It’s roughly 25 degrees in my office. I’ve been nipping out all day. This is not a good luck for me. Or anyone, for that matter.

Macaroni and cheese brings me back to my younger days. I remember having mac and cheese as a side dish and wondering why it wasn’t the main course. Cheese and pasta, what more could you ask for? Over the years, my tolerance (?) for it has changed. For personal reasons, we don’t by Kraft M&C, which honestly tastes much better than the generic brands. I’ve tried crock-pot recipes with little success. I’d rather make up pasta and add alfredo sauce instead. But Marie and I feasted on our share of macaroni and cheese in our first apartment. Seemingly every other meal came from that blue box.

There was this guy named Richard who used to live down the street form us, back when we lived in Appleton. Having been in a number of fights in his earlier days, his nose was severely out of place due to numerous breaks and fractures. As funny as it sounds, it looked like a beak. He had this creepy old house that always seemed to be used as a threat from my parents. “Clean your room or we’re sending you to live with Richard!” I never made my bed faster than when my parent’s brought up his name.

He had this ratty-looking parrot that always sat on his shoulder. Dried bird shit covered his clothing. I don’t think he understood the concept of washing. The parrot was really old and partially blind. It squawked at everyone that walked by the house, no matter how quiet they were.

One day, Richard died chewing bulb glass as a temp in the freak show.

I would try:
Reinstalling AohelL.
Defragment your computer (open My Computer, right click on the C: drive, click properties and then the Options (?) tab). Before doing this, shut off your screen saver, any running applications, anything in the tray (AIM, etc).
Look to see if there is anything on the hard drive that can be cleaned off. Old programs, temporary files, etc.
Consider a local PC repair shop. Sometimes they can troubleshoot over the phone and not charge you, or if you find a local place they can be pretty reasonable.

Rhode is the abbreviation for rhodeo, a place for people to ride bulls, spit at each other and go nuts over cowboy butts. Rhode Island was originally an island so as to be able to throw the bull plop into the ocean with little hassle. Soon, the stench got to be too much, so Rhode Island was relocated to where it is now.
