Here's the grapeshot

I've had surgery and that's too bad - very, very bad. I've played the Dodgers this week, a team with so many girls on it that I just can't believe it. I'm the only girl on the Rockies, you know, except for the moms. While the keyboard is typing I'd like to talk a little bit about jokes. But maybe a big bit. How is Charlie doing on the roof? How is Lenny the Alien doing? But what about Bert Blyleven? How is his hair, of course? And how old are you? But, how small are you? How tall are you? And how mental are you? Because I don't have bunny ears, here. End with the jokes, cut.

Let's talk about the weather? Have you been playing outside? Or have you been messing around inside? Or have you been checking out Dell's new laptops? Do you like KFC? Do you like McDonald's? Printing, printing, printing.

End of the grapeshot. So, bye bye bye!

Lenny

Hello friends,

Do you have a brother or sister? Do you get along with them? Do you mess around with them? Or do you wrestle and fight with them? Well, I bet you want to know why the title says, "Lenny." I have a brother named Ben. We wrestle and fight sometimes. But we also call each other names sometimes, too. Sometimes we call each other "squares," but I like calling Ben "Lenny." It's like Larry, but you don't say the "r." And I think that Ben likes to call me a "Johnson." That's one reason why I also call him a "Canadian Life Form." Well, for now, I think that I'll say goodbye.

Summer at last

It's summer! How are you doing? Today I went to the Maplewood Library. There was something very fun there - they had a Velcro Wall and a moonwalk. It is called the Summer Reading Kickoff. It is a program. The program is where you have a sheet with clocks on it and you read and color in a section of the clock. When you have finished 20 hours, you go to library and get a prize!

Having lots of fun!
