(Oh wait, you already did!)<br /><br />But seriously, I do wish I lived in California. And I've already got the requisite PF and Bob/Ziggy Marley albums, yes, albums if you must know. Doesn't help much that I'm not a smoker of anything- cigarettes or weed. Never was. But I could be! When I think of all of the hangovers I *could* have avoided...all the brownies I *could* have eaten... <br /><br />Can I get a prescription? <br /><br />Can I get an amen?Bob Barbanes:https://www.blogger.com/profile/12344068760904928223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33980200.post-71213785227956925292009-10-06T17:36:27.126-05:002009-10-06T17:36:27.126-05:00As an English major I'm afraid I'm a const...As an English major I'm afraid I'm a constant corrector. <br /><br />My grandson's get irritated but parrot back the corrections.
