No no, canvas sea bags work much better!

I thought Phase 3 was 'Rinse'....
or is that Cycle 3,..... I forget.
Damn. I should have taken Ukrainian in high school instead of Spanish.
Now, not calling anyone special needs for posting excerpts from their blog without posting the full post below"
Hey, are YOU referring to posts #2 and #3?
Good catch. That one got right by me. Next time, let me know...I'll ping the troops.
They are not fake screen names, they are real “screen names”. New to the net spud?
The socks, though. I mean, it explains so much.
Wow! I had never had of sock gnomes before. Turns out they’ve been researched by others:
Sock gnomes
You guys know gnomes. The little bastards are only dependable for one thing, and that’s mischief. Gnomes are like a tiny version of the Mafia: they insinuate themselves into everything, usually without the general populace knowing. Here’s the general routine for a sock gnome:
1. At Gnome Central, locate your washer and dryer on the GSC (gnomish supercomputer).
2. Using advanced technology and the RFID tags previously placed into your socks at the factory by RFID gnomes, who are also everywhere, the gnomes pick out socks that look appealing and will sell for much money.
3. Select some tools. Popular choices are grappling hooks, crowbars, and squeaky shoes.
4. Hop in the Gnomemobile and drive to your house.
5. Sneak in through a window, making sure to knock out dogs and/or small children with tranquilizer darts. These are removed once the gnomes are inside they wouldn’t want people to find the darts and analyze the tranquilizers, as gnomes are also years ahead with their chemistry.
6. Using the backdoors built into your washer and dryer by backdoor gnomes at the factory, enter the machine.
7. Make away with socks, making sure not to take too many of the same kind wouldn’t want to make prices fall by flooding the market with Abe Lincoln socks. Gnomes are also economics geniuses.
8. Sell the socks, either on eBay or through the sock black market.
9. Buy crack cocaine and Huey Lewis and the News albums. Have a fun evening.
Defensive tactics:
Set out gnome traps around your home. Clever as gnomes are, they cannot resist getting a new hat or perhaps a little blow. Bait the traps accordingly, but make sure to conceal them well. Another option is find the backdoor in your dryer and reëngineer it such that it isn’t openable from the inside. Make sure to leave a snack in the dryer; gnomes bite viciously if they haven’t had a snack in a while should you free them without the aid of very strong gloves.
Or...no. I don't know if you picked on the slow kids in school.
Or, maybe. Maybe you picked on the slow kids in school and then got nicer when you grew up and don't chase the bloggers here posting “Blog Pimp.”
Or...maybe not. Maybe you didn't pick on anyone when you were a kid but now chase them on FR tagging them as “Blog Pimp.”
But maybe that is a maybe, and not a maybe not. Maybe.
Beats the heck out of my Irish wife trying to pay the grocer with potatoes. I keep trying to tell her, "Honey, the grocer already has potatoes!."
Darn it! There goes my side job! :)
I have seen and heard plenty of stuff in the "paid" media that came from FR comments.

Those who think those groups are posting on FR and demanding that blog pimps post their full articles instead of excerpts are in an advanced state of paranoia.
Now that’s funny!
Ah, ha, now the light comes on. I was trying to follow this thread and not understanding it. I have been a member of Free Republic for nearly 12 years, but was not acquainted with the Blog concept. Your mentioning trying to increase the number of hits on someone’s Blog as the purpose for posting just an excerpt makes sense now. Thanks.
Kissinger has that impact on grazing animals.
That’s it! I’m going to send a link to this thread to my “now ex-husband”. For 21 years I was blamed for the socks. He brought it up in court and it got ugly. I suspected my dryer was to blame, but now I have proof. The “outside vent” that you hook your dryer to, isn’t really an outside vent. It’s the wormhole/black hole for socks. And the gnomes, don’t get me started on the gnomes.
I’ve paid him a billion so far.
Why, is he out blowing it again?
The Blog Police, they are inside of my head
