Bottom feeder :D

Just realized I've been coming here for four years now. That's so weird! Means it's been four years since I sat in that office chair at my old job feeling bored and wanting to meet some fellow HoMM lovers. Haha....good times :)

You can have this title and bar if you want, Mila. If you'd rather have the Mod one I'll start looking into the possibility of combining that with main page powers.

Actually, I have a rather large stock pile of unwanted "Adult Sodas". I'm hoping to have a back yard 'Weenie Roast' to burn up a lot of dead limbs that have fallen off my trees in the last year or two. I'm now thinking that I should combine it into a Wake for Crazy Beer Lady as an excuse to get rid of the stash.

For a little over a year, we've had a problem with the local drunk lady crossing the creek / ditch over the narrow bridge behind my shop. She would cut through our yard, cross the main street of our township to the tobacco store and buy cheep, cold "Natural Ice" beer. She would bring it back and sit on the planter wall or back step of the Lion's Club (Rich old guys' Civic Group) building next door. We could see her sitting there drinking from our bathroom window. Not always a fun thing! This woman was 50ish but her bad habits wore on her. She would drink, talk to herself and occasionally vomit. Not a pretty sight! While we complained to the police, they never really did anything. Apparently, if the LIONS complained, she got arrested because we saw the police take her away twice. But she always came back.

Now, the problem wasn't just that she was 'unsightly' - she had a bad habit of leaving FULL beer cans all over the place. She would find a place to 'stash' them under a bush, behind our A/C unit, or behind the Lion's Club. We have a lot of kids who use that same bridge in the back to cross over to the main street to go to the school across the street, the store or just hang with their friends. I was always afraid the kids would get into the beer, so when I saw it, I would clean it up.

The first time we found one of her big stashes, we turned in over 30 full cans of beer to the police. Nothing happened. So we just started keeping it. I gave as much of it away to as many people as I could get to haul it away! I was handing out 2-3 dozen full cans at a time. Then I got really busy at work and didn't have time to keep an eye on her. She got arrested. The reports say that the police found FIFTY TWO cans piled behind the Lion's Club after just under 3 weeks of me not picking it up.

Two weeks after that arrest, Crazy Beer Lady got drunk and fell from the bridge into the concreted section of the creek. That part is about 6 feet deep with concreted walls and floor. She was presumed dead on impact. The authorities believe that she fell last Thursday evening and lay there until a neighbor man saw her early Saturday morning. That means that we worked in the building only a few yards away from where that woman lay dead in a ditch all day last Friday.

The moral of the story, Ladies and Gentlemen, is enjoy your Adult Beverages, but only in moderation.

I don't mind the blue bar, K. And I posted the news, I wanted.

that sounds like a plan........everything but the weenie roast part. :scared:

I'll drink in moderation, or in a bottle, or a glass, or a mug, or a can..... :-D

Yes, and follow the advice of Mr. Schumacher and his sponsor, Bacardi: don't combine drinking and driving.

Bought a new computer, or so I thought. What actually arrived at my home was an iron carcass of a long gone PC, dusty and it has even some spider webs.

I'm gonna send it back and check...really calmly...WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED!!
