Ooh, a surprise? Wonder what it could be? Well, today's the day I can finally post my story. Billswoman's also betaing (is that a word ) it and I'll probably post it when I get home tonight. It'll on the fanfiction.net site Thursday. I'm really excited, first thing to look forward to this week (other than Friday, the beginning of vacation.)

Bill, you might as well get some sleep, as it'll be a little while until I can find all the pictures I want to use. Besides, I have to wait a little while before I can post my first individual story on the fanfiction.net site, and when I do, I'll be jumping for joy as well. So, guess I'm saying it's worth the wait.

Okay...have that attitude if you want...no wonder people are Scrooges around the holiday...geez...you think I had asked you to share your brownies at the office or something. They were cupcakes, and we all shared them equally. Well the sports guy took two, but he had a long night at the basketball game. Fun to get a call later that night though and have to explain what cagers means to production. They thought we wanted to say cougars, but it was CQ as cagers. Never figured that out myself. Besides, that was the third food gift I had received from customers in the past two weeks. Most of the time you're lucky if you even get a thank you because a lot of customers just call to complain that you misspelled their name. You know, my last name gets misspelled all the time in papers, even my bylines occasionally at work, so I never have a problem with that. But then again, one track meet we knew it was me only because I was the only Mac-anything on JV. They butchered the name that bad. But track was fun, if only to throw the shot put, though I never won a ribbon with that, only in the running races. Still have fun with the two mile race though and. ... Wait a second, I'm writing the first crazy stream of consciousness post I've made in a long time. Who'd thought I could do that?

[ ] Bill: Oh, we had no doubts that you could ramble on forever still. Longest stream-of-consciousness rambling I did verbally was a half an hour. It was to test microphones for an event. Could ramble on about juggling routines, one act play costumes and what not. Even included a K-Mart announcement in there (and most of them are gone in Texas now). So, who knows. At least I can't do that with the story moves this time.

Hey, the longest post I've done is just past a basic essay. I've never posted one that's three pages, except when there are multiple posts that way. Besides I'm not the only one who's done that you know.

I know...but Greenguy is missing so you are the only remaining person. What does that mean? Am I the next to go through the time vortex or travel with the Doctor to who knows where? Seems every one disappears for no reason then suddenly reappears months later, so. (cue "Doctor Who" end theme") ...

Couldn't tell you as I have never seen it. However, I have a surprise for Greenguy too, courtesy of an idea I got from MyTatuo.

It has the Dr. WHo theme, and you'd get the joke about the end theme. There's a "scream" sound with it. Wonder what's in store for greenguy as well?

I think I will pass on Dr. Who. And you will just have to wait for Greenguy too.

I think I will pass on Dr. Who. And you will just have to wait for Greenguy too. OK, meanwhile, I'll put the photos with the commercial and modify it to a TV commercial. Have most of the pics now, courtesy of our mini-story on the screencaps thread.

For my 2,000th post, I was going to post a song that I had changed the words too. I was going to do one relevant to the whole board and the series, not just a person like Greenguy. However, I am still tweaking a couple of lines of that to flow better. In the meantime, I thought I would grant you all reading this the chance to learn more about the wonder that is MelMac.
This song is dedicated to her and is called TEXAS JUGGLE GIRL. *In case you are curious, I changed the words of SECRET AGENT MAN for this song*
TEXAS JUGGLE GIRL
There's a girl who juggles everyday now Everyone that watches wants to know how. With every throw she does Another big news buzz. She can keep us entertained for hours.
Texas Juggle Girl Texas Juggle Girl It's not just a performance We know it's your whole life.
Beware of silly costumes that you wear They could come unraveled and even tear. Be careful what you throw They might cancel the next show She can keep us entertained for hours.
Texas Juggle Girl Texas Juggle Girl It's not just a performance We know it's your whole life.
Performing at a talent show one day Going to the Variety the next. Oh be careful up on stage Don't you know that you're the rage? She can keep us entertained for hours.
Texas Juggle Girl Texas Juggle Girl It's not just a performance We know it's your whole life.
*This song is dedicated to MelMac and any story of hers that might someone relate to juggling...no matter if it really does or not*
