aaaahhhhh (that's a scream)
I just got jolted from my hammock by a loudspeaker blaring a grand-opening announcement from a little yellow airplane. The car and truck ad blasters
are quite enough noise, thank you very much. My peace is thoroughly disturbed. How modern will Loreto Get?

An orange juice can full of steel wool placed over the barrel of a .22 makes an effective silencer.
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

How DO you come up with this arcane information? I have to say that I am very curious to know about the childhoods of some of the fellows on
here...somehow the boys seem to get more of this kind of knowledge than the gals do...

I think that he grew up in the south where we southern belles were using orange juice cans as hair rollers to straighten our long hair.

They're having a car stereo contest at the marina... Saturday, I think.
We have a neighbor that I'd bet on. A very modern car stereo.

The cardboard tube from a roll of toilet paper will do in a pinch. Duct tape makes it a bit more durable.
You do have toilet paper there now, right?

Bruce,
Take the little sheet ,poke your finger through the middle, wipe, and then use the tissue to get rid of that brown stuff stuck to your finger, and
discard.

I once tried to make a joke about which person it would be better to shoot, the town crier or the tamale salesman. Unfortunately most of the guys at
the mechanics garage hangout thought I was serious. They said I should bring it up at a junta (official Ejido meeting). The unofficial vote at the
garage was to shoot the town crier. The tamale man is around more often and makes more racket but he's got good tamales.

Wern't you ever in Boy Scouts.
How to use toilet paper
1. fold the sheet in half
2. fold the sheet in half again
3. tear a corner off the folded up sheet of TP. Save this corner it is very important
4. when you unfold you have a hole in the middle for you finger.
5. use the paper to clean your finger.
6. Use the corner piece to clean under your fingernail.
