Summer greetings my friends! Lots of things have been going on here! I have given out two more awards! The Bubbles choice went to The VanDoodle Zine, and the Nermal's Pick went to Life As Viewed by Bobbi Jo ! See my awards page for details, and be sure and visit theses two award winning sites! Don't forget, if you have an award worthy page or know of one, to e-mail me and let me know!
To begin with, we have somehow picked up the CWS about:blank malicious Trojan adware disaster. The-Short-One has been trying to get rid of it since the fourth of July. I think The-Slobby-Brother-Like-Person is the one who got it infected, but I am not completely sure. Anyway, hopefully it will be gone soon as it caused tons of nasty pop-ups, saps RAM, and sets our homepage to about:blank - a stupid search page thingy. She has been going to a free forum that helps people fix all kinds of computer problems.
Speaking of the fourth of July, we had quite a nice time, though Andy did manage to charcoal the hamburgers into unrecognizable lumps, but the chicken turned out good. Booy did manage the fireworks show this year, along with Hug-Me and Charles The Frog. There were no great accidents, and no one was set on fire, so all in all a good show. After that we set up our tents and stayed up pretty much the whole night. I am really enjoying camping this year, especially since Bubbles is here! I was so worried he would have moved away this summer, but everything worked out for the best!
We have gotten a new friend - Andrew the Alligator. The-Short-One found him in Branson at the 5 & 10 store. He was quite panic stricken as he apparently is a computer addict who spent most of his life attached to the company computers at the factory, and one day they found him and packed him up with a shipment so he was in terror that he would never see a computer again. Of course The-Short-One felt bad for the poor creature and has brought him home now. He has hit it off with Charles the Frog and Hug-Me, and they have been spending a lot of time together lately. Andrew is also working on a website, but I wouldn't hold my breath that it will ever be done.
Our trip is still planed for the 27th, so I am getting quite excited as it is getting closer and closer. I have started practicing what I am going to say to the politician teddies! I am so nervous!
Well, baseball season is finally back to normal. We lost our last game against the Chargers, >(sigh)<. We will be playing the Stars next week, and I have no hope that we can beat them. I guess it was just a bit of luck for the first month. Oh well.
The wrestling match was very exng, and there is a new diversion now as well - the bicycle race! it is to be held the first week of August, but the catch is that you have to build your own bicycle! Bubbles and I have been working on our bicycles for the last week, as the computer has been tied up anyway. They are not going as well as I had planned. Pongo has been very busy helping people weld their frames together and such - who knew he had talent? I am not sure he is even going to have time to make one for himself! Anyway. my bicycle is going to be painted a lovely shade of red, and Bubbles is, of course, going for purple. I hope we win!
Not much else going on as everyone has been too busy to do too much! Hope everyone else's summer is as fun!
Ta-ta,
O
This is Andrew.
