very busy at work...

happy wednesday to everyone...
i´m currently working and yes being very productive. i have cut many articles out of local newspapers, organized them and am about to search for a cool folder in which to store them. hmmm. what else? oh jay, conquistador is actually how you spell conquistador in spanish. crazy how it looks just like english. just thought i´d help you out since you are permanently changing your name. (and if i misspell anything i have immunity to corrections because i´m in spain.. i love powers of immunity, especially when i make up all the rules.) as soon as i get home we are having an intervention for mandy and jay as well, because this relationship is definitely struggling and i just can´t handle the emotional distress.
a couple of days ago i went to the place where they had the world expo in seville in 1992. let´s just say amazing. the site is so huge and most of the pavillions are still in tact, now office bldgs or something of the sort. lola was explaining every detail to me and since i have a poor memory, i´m going to buy a book about it. well, that´s all i´ve got. hope you´re all super.

kate, i love, cherish and thank you very much for correction. i do not want the spanish ladies to think that i have been hit on the silver helmet one too many times. i want them to know that i am smart...not just really really really really good looking. it's important.

erin, first my name is not 'el conquistador', it is 'soy el conquistador'. big difference. 'soy el conquistador' is more emphatic and commanding. secondly, 'soy el conquistador' is not a loser. I am a man. the kind of man that invented the wheel, and built the eiffel tower with metal and brawn. that's what kind of man i am...with a brain 3 times the size of yours...it's science.

stomping about like the manliest of men,
soy el conquistador

i read you guys' comments outloud to my friend allison and she laughed. we especially laughed when erin used the word buffoon. do you know that physical sloth is a real term? it's true. Kate, como se dice "physical sloth"?

In reference to this statement: "I love powers of immunity, especially when i make up all the rules." I believe, kate, that this statement especially is characteristic of how you feel. If I may, I'd like to reference a certain "Dam-boozled" game in which Kate stated these exact words followed by: "Bwah Hah Hah, Bwah Hah hah hah" However, it has also been my experience that it is quite fun to be around kate when she is exercising her power of immunity and her right to creating rules. So rock on my immunity-loving, rules-creating, hard-core Sister!

firstly, we have taken a poll and the general consensus is that school is the root of all evil.

secondly, we have taken another poll and the general consensus is that the weather today was beyond awesome. rocked our collective faces off.

thirdly, we have taken a final poll and the general consensus is that boys (excepting a one soy el conquistador and graham) are bad. and we are tired of the angst they cause. seriously, we shouldn't be supporting the TUMS company at such a young age.

mcthirdly, is that irish?

the beautiful and non-angstful,
erin and emily

aye lassy,
mcthirdly is quite irish. firstly mcthirdly is one of our families most well known members. firstly, like many mcthridly's before and after him, was a minstrel. he travelled along with a spanish fellow, a conquistador i believe, that went by the name 'soy el conquistador'. firstly's job was to make merriment as the troop moved from town to town. he would provide a soothing song for 'soy' to relieve the stress of conquest. firstly's songs are credited for helping 'soy' win the battle of the bulge and the iran contra affair.

later on in his life firstly parted ways with 'soy el conquistador' and joined teddy roosevelt's rough riders. firstly also hit big on the top 40 when he released his version of that great old song "dear lord what's that on your face." disappointingly his follow up record, "a couple more beers and i'll take ya home" did not score as well with female audiences.

firstly mcthirdly's is currently on sabatical in madagascar. as for the future...who knows what firstly will do next...

the mcthirdly family would like to thank the fourtly and fellows corporation for their interest in our family history.

sincerely yours,
lastly mcthirdly

"Who is this?" OH yes you say it is the garrett. Ok so I just found out you even had a blog page and well here I am commenting. If you had only let me know about this page earlier I could have filled you with powerful wisdom from the smoothest dish cleaner south of the Canadian border. "Always scrub from left to right and never put a plate covered with peanut butter in the dish washer machiney thing" bie bye
