I'll drink to that, but then again I'll drink to almost anything.

Thirsty Thursday, you say, Swamp? Great! I hadn't realized there was something to celebrate today. Thanks for mentioning it.

It's not how much you spend, Joe. It's how much you enjoy your purchase that counts. If you get half as much out of your spider as Mistress gets out of her TV, you'll be fine!

I'm waiting to hear about that new car, Jim . . . . Oh, I know. You leased one of those new diesels, didn't you?
