You're all like a bunch of caffeine hyped up hares to my melatonin tortoise, this is my rare stream jump that I do from time to time, and you're a witness to it, even though you've all had to look in your rear view mirror to see it. who gives a turkey you ask yourselves, well, no one. It's the only thing I can think of for a reason to text.

Hey TDK60/Chresti, guess what, I learned a new cuss word on Terre t's show. Well not so much a cuss word as an insult word, and that word is numpty. It has like four different meanings to it, just ask RevRab, He was there, and supplied one of the meanings for the word numpty. I'm quite certain you two know the word, but hey, it's new to me. Well I just thought I'd text you guys something as lame as it might be just to give you something for your caffeinated hyped up minds to bite into. Or at least chresti's caffeinated brain.
