Spring Cleaning


Since I have not heard anything from the new Oldies radio station yet ... I have decided to clean our basement. I have been very afraid to go down there as we've lived in this home for years and the junk continued to pile up a little bit at a time. Two furnace repairmen have gone down there not to return. I hear strange howling sounds late at night. Sometimes, when it is deadly silent, I can hear a voice whispering "redrum ... redrum." But, brushing all fears behind me, I tied a rope around my waist, anchored it to the basement door and headed downstairs, GPS unit in hand. The cleaning has started. So far I have found one of the two repairmen, 3500 spiders, and a very large caribou who is living in what appears to be a small forest area in the southeast corner of the basement. I will let you know how things turn out.

Hey Spiff, did you get your shots before you started? It looks like it's a JUNGLE down there!!

You're right ... should have gone to the docs for my shots before embarking on such an adventure. I thought I saw Pat Boone crawling into a hole in my basement floor and remembered "Journey to the Center of the Earth". Now I am frightened.

If we don't hear from you in 30 days.......we'll wait another 30 days.

(I ain't goin' down there.)
