...You are obviously much more intelligent than me.<br /><br />I once had to pee really badly, but we had a substitute teacher, and she told us in no uncertain terms that no one was to put up their hand and ask to go to the bathroom. Me, being a very scared and shy little child, obeyed. I had to pee, and yet, I knew I could do nothing about it. So, I sat down at a desk, and then, before I knew it, I had peed in my pants, which of course ended up all over the floor. Then I got up and went to the back of the class to make paste, as the teacher asked me to. She then noticed the pee pool, and proceeded to scream at some kids, blaming them for bringing water into the classroom. Then, she told one of the little boys to clean it up. <br /><br />So, I guess I was stealthy, but in a totally accidental way.Mary@Holy Mackerelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04026873878364041551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4643741973264866223.post-81253273040388454512010-02-21T15:35:43.459-07:002010-02-21T15:35:43.459-07:00This was just odd, but funny.

If she was still living among us I'd have to have a little talk with her.......maybe I'll do it anyway.<br /><br />Remember the other story she told around halloween time about the dead bodies that were cemented into the bridge or some such thing like that? I thought that was scary enough (again, WHAT WAS SHE THINKING??!) but SKELETON MAN? No closet will be safe ever again....<br /><br />Incidentally, I made you another appt. at the dentist on March 3 at 10 am. Didn't know if you got my phone message. Now dear, I'm sure the dentist is just a regular person who cares very deeply about your dental hygiene and her braid doesn't contain robotic wiring, and she's surely not related to skeleton man, so just think of her as your friend, close your eyes and go to your happy place......<br /><br />Love,<br />Momthemotherunithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141685408536939812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4643741973264866223.post-35786359523450813782010-02-17T19:07:33.826-07:002010-02-17T19:07:33.826-07:00I think your parents secretly raised you in Bigcra...I think your parents secretly raised you in Bigcrapistan and were just too ashamed to admit it after the careers as professional assassins finally took off.Jay Ferrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08361912685495566176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4643741973264866223.post-41628507827427263792010-02-17T15:24:42.014-07:002010-02-17T15:24:42.014-07:00Also, have you ever wasted any time on brokenpictu...Also, have you ever wasted any time on brokenpicturetelephone.com?

So long as Skeleton Man has Orc rapist skulls to crush he's going to leave you alone.<br />Just to be on the safe side you should probably put up a "no skeleton man" sign. You know a skeleton in a circle with a line through it. Keep it graphic (Skeleton Man probably does not read english) and it will be effective.
