When Valerie, my sister and I were 7 and 9 years old, we spent the day calling people and telling them they could win a case of Cambells soup if they sang the song, so many did and we of course had it all on cassett tape! The Baskin Robin's one reminded me of that. Long Letha but so fun! Thank you , it's been a long day here!

Somehow I really want to try the cell phone thing, that might just work for me! lol

... Spend all your time making lists of annoying things to do to people.

Wouldn't it be pleasant to make lists of all the ways people can be nice to each other? Maybe not. I guess deep down people spend more time fantasizing about being mean than being nice.
