rug doctor

When I got home on Friday, there was a rug doctor sitting in my living room. The eager-beaver handyman with Popeye forearms featured in the ads was nowhere to be seen. We moved all the furniture in the living room and set the kids to work vacuuming and cleaning the filthy molding. I gave Mo a soapy cloth to wash the woodwork, and she did a fantastic job up to about 3 1/2 feet.

Then we shampooed the rug, pausing every other row to empty the dirty water. Dumping this water was the most satisfying activity ever. The water was black and it felt like I was exorcising all the bad spirits from my house.

Now I can lay face down on the carpet to do the cobra pose and not have a sneezing fit.

are you christmas-negligent?

Wow,

They are getting all up in Best-Buy’s shit at standforchristmas.com.

Employees always have been polite, friendly, and helpful. Too bad the corporate decision to ignore our Christian heritage & holidays,instead demonstrate their willingness to recognize a Muslim holiday tells me where Best Buys loyalities lie. I will find an independent Christian business to purchase my new home theater system.

I think I’m gonna get on there and complain about the cleavage on the virgin mary statue that I saw at JC Pennys.
