Huge Portrait that we kept from when moved. Paid $40.00 and selling for $10.
[Richard Attenborough voice] The lion. Majestic, imposing, and totally not a tiger. Nope, not a tiger at all. No tigers here. That’s a lion. Yup. [end Richard Attenborough voice]
It’s been a while since we had a nice lion around here. It’s also been a while since I wrote a post. I figured I’d go with a classic to ease myself back into it. Thanks, Jen, for the low-hanging fruit!
I made invitatationes four your event
if you want more information can you
send meil !!
tenks..
They’ve made invitations for my event! I haven’t even told them what my event IS yet, but they’ve already made them! I hope their company name is the Psychic Printing Service. That’d be awesome — you walk in and say, “I need …” and they say, “We know,” and hand you your already-completed order.
The only problem is that your invitations would end up looking something like this:
Mr. and Mrs. Becky and Tim requesest you’re prersents
Pleze can you send meil two let us no if your comming !!
tenks..
Thanks to Corie for the submission! (This was posted under “Clothing & Accessories” for some reason, so I’m categorizing it there as well as where it should belong.)
5×7″ pink and brown cardstock ready to be made into wedding (or other) invitations. Paper has pretty butterfly and flower design. I have enough materials for approx. 150 invitations, including ribbon to assemble, as well as blank white response cards.
I think the email exchange between Leslie and me is the best possible commentary:
Leslie: BLANK wedding invitations, you say? Blank, that is, except for the NAMES boldly emblazoned across the bottom – “Becky and Tim”.
I’m getting married soon, and this seemed like such a good deal. Being cautious of those kooky Craigslisters out there (thanks to your blog), I thought it best to first inquire as to this young ladies definition of “blank”. You guessed it – blank means “blank except for our names on the front”. She was quite the “Helpy Helperton”, though. She offered several suggestions as to how I might overcome this very minor issue. After asking if it was possible that my name was Becky and my fiancee’s name was Tim, she informed me I could either cross it out and write our names underneath or simply put a sticker over it and write our names on that.
Yeah, this seems like just the right way to start out your new lives together. Maybe we should just change our names to Becky and Tim.
YSaC: Please tell me that the “blank” response cards also say “Becky and Tim” on them … because that would be awesome.
Leslie: Well, I suppose if you’re already crossing out the names on the front….what’s a few hundred more on the “blank” response cards?
My aggravation got the better of me, so I opted to send Becky the link to the Webster’s definition of “blank”.
She responded with “so you aren’t interested in the invitations? This is a real money saver.” I pray my sanity holds fast so I don’t have to use my daily allotment of curse words on one person. I don’t even think I need to ask why it is that things didn’t work out between with she and Tim’s nuptials. I’m sure your IQ must fall a few points each day when you live with someone like that.
Team Tim!
YSaC: Hang onto her email address. You’ll need it when you send her a link to the entry on the blog!
Leslie: Oh, I fully intend to link her to the posting. I’m from the South, so anytime we do/say something about someone else that’s not so kind, we just begin or end the sentence with “Bless Her Heart”.
Yes, bless her heart. Bless her sweet, sweet, unsure of the meaning of “blank” heart.
Thanks for the post & emails, Leslie! This is the fourth or fifth submission of Leslie’s that’s made it on the site, so I think it’s time to start an “LC” tag — keep bringing us the crazy!
Kira sends this in, saying, “Yikes, because nothing says heartwarming like the KKK riding off into the sunset….”
Is it just me, or does it look like they’re riding alpacas? Or maybe tauntauns?
I’ve blurred the phone number and link to the artist’s home page, because after looking at the other works displayed there, I honestly don’t think that “Early Racist Art” was quite the genre s/he was going for — although I can’t figure out what it would be otherwise! Any ideas?
Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, so I thought I’d provide a little public service and point you towards a lovely Valentine’s Day gift opportunity. No need to say thanks … I’m a giver like that.

Need a quick Valentine’s gift? I am making goodies for Valentine’s Day. Take a peek and let me know if you’re interested in ordering anything. Great gifts for kids, teachers or that special someone.

Yes, the tags actually say, “My Cup Run It Over”. With the quotation marks. It’s just too painful.
I’m hoping my comments will runneth over with snark. Take it away, folks!
