Proctoheliosis/helioproctosis - a condition where people believe the sun shines from their backsides
[:D]
Properly, I think it should be Proctoheliosis
Helioproctosis is something you can get from frequenting gay bars.

The neighbors two driveways up (not the one with the $10,000 mailbox on my property but the one who chased a bobcat down his driveway with an ax yelling "mountain lion, mountain lion, LOOKOUT!"..that guy) are getting on my nerves.
EVERY day they have a painter or landscape crew out there doing something and they have a narrow frontage on the street so the crews park in front of my place. This lady takes better care of her plants than I do of my kids and the painter does faux antiqueing. He is fantatstic at what he does but I can't imagine what there is left to paint. He has been working for at LEAST 5 years. Maybe they are burying bodies back there or something. Without a doubt, somebody has a too much money. Must be a cash business with double books or some such thing. My insurance agent told me when their fire sprinklers went of (without a fire) State Farm had to pay $500K to repair the woodwork and such. [X(]
So here is the question. When I turn on the sprinklers on purpose when the crews are getting out of the truck am I going to Hell? I can do it remotely. I have done it about 8 times and every time they laugh like schoolgirls but park in the same place the next day. Perhaps I need a more energetic strategy?

Proctoheliosis or Proctoheliasis? Wouldn't Helioproctitis be something from frequenting those places?
Get it? Pathologists' humor...[8|]

Can you fill your water lines with paint thinner? When they see what happens with their truck's paint job, they'll not be twittering so gaily.

I didn't even think of that. Today there are THREE gardeners. Apparently the painter got the day off.[:)]

I am able to say with a high level of confidence that all there bases are belong to us not.
We are trying to fix this problem. Perhaps even Port Headland base will fall next turn. Still no turn back. If there had a catastrophe which had befallen Allied forces this turn I am pretty sure we would have a gushing email back by now. [:)]

Quite a good day for the good guys.
96 Netty sorties over PH and not a hit. Most are coming from Koepang I think as they are unescorted.
