These are the housewarming gifts I have received so far: A cow skull (from the dinner guests who said they would eat anything but okra, oysters and collard greens), and a set of coasters featuring the beer that is not sold here from the Yankee Tavern in the Bronx, mailed out by you know who.

Your new house is so, well, unhouselike (sorry. untraditional is a better word) that it never occurred to me to send a housewarming gift.
I mean, does one send a housewarming gift to someone whom they think has just bought what they believe to have been a gas station?
Anyway, "Shoot Out The Lights" will be on its' way soon. You can play "Wall of Death" when you hang the skull.
Did I pass Housewarming 101 ?
No one is commenting?
Well, here's a great quote from a dear friend. I think it would make a great country-western song, but I believe there is already one called "I Forgot to Remember to Forget."
Anyway, My friend Lew Scheffey, who is in his eighties, feels frustrated that his short term memory is less than. And he's got a lot going on he has to keep track of. Like his upcoming art show.
He said to me yesterday "I've got a number of things on my mind to forget!"
I'd comment, but I'd only say something about Ruca the wonder dog who has learned to sit at doors in TWO days! So I won't. But she has a sister, Willow, who needs a good home.
Why not have two?
We always had at least three dogs, five cats, and a few birds.
On the other hand, your mom needs a dog.
Oh, yeah.
More puppy pictures, please! Or better yet, a video.
See my blog for new video.
A housewarming gift! I am so remiss! How about a subscription to Gas Station Living?
