You think they'll get the mailing list correct??? Ha ha ha


I got a call from the T Boone Pickens call center last night. I'm a little punchy these days...sleep deprived would be a good word...so I was not in the mood for a political action committee phone caller to be calling me at 9 pm. So the call goes something like this...she says she is calling on behalf of T Boone Pickens and I ask her if he is giving away money. Dead silence. Ah, no, she stammers. She says she is calling to ask for pledges...Oh I say he wants MY money. Ah...well...I said, well, I could use some money, not give away money and I think he has enough money so if he is asking me for money I don't have any, but I could sure use some. Dead silence. Well, ah..she is desperately trying to read her canned statement to me and I just won't let her. I told her if he wants a donation from me forget it. If he is handing out money, then fine. Good night and hung up.

So, Earl...keep those cards and letters coming!
