		<description>&lt;strong&gt;...Like a Woman Scorned...&lt;/strong&gt;

So Ruby's jealous of my Dad getting attention on my blog.  Also, I need a Velvet Elvis painting - got one?  And why is Craig Ferguson stalking me?!

I know... it's a lot to ask for (I'm serious about needing a Velvet Elvis, though...)....</description>

&lt;em&gt;Les Says:  Well, thank you very much!  I like the idea of the whole internet staring at my blog and going "hmmmm".  I hope you come back and visit again.&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Hi Les,
It's going to take me sometime to come up to speed about Ruby but I think I am going to enjoy her story tremendously. Great writing! 
Regards

&lt;em&gt;Les Says:  Well, thank you, Dan!  Check out "The Landlady" category for most the stories... but typing "Ruby" in the search box will give you little bits and pieces of her as well.  I hope you become as attached to her as I and the rest of her internet fans are - she gets quite the kick out of that.  :-) &lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Velvet Elvis painting? I'll keep my eyes peeled for you ...

&lt;em&gt;Les Says:  Thanks, David.  And there's been an addendum to that, as well.  It's now been decided that several (up to seven - ulp...*) Velvet Elvises (Elvisi?!) of different poses and sizes may be required.  In other words, if you see three... I WANTS them.  LOL!&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Congrats on the smoke free bit. I'm a few days behind the original post so hopefully you're still holding strong.

&lt;em&gt;Les Says:  So far, so good.  Thanks for the support, Joe!&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Get the mouse a dang cup! And now you know that Craig Ferguson is definitely NOT the man for you, he is ill-equipped for naval transport. Nah. Not a good thing. Congrats on the continuing victory over the urge to you-know-what, strange dreams be damned! Maybe this is a new opportunity for yet another blog: Odd Reveries, or Just Don't Throw Me In The Nicotine Patch!

&lt;em&gt;Les Says:  NO man is for me. I don't have the time (not to mention the inclination) for a man anymore.  But, damn!  The more I think about it, the more I want that mysterious, well-paid J.O.B. with Ferguson - whatever the hell it is - I don't even care.  Californ-i-a.  Let's go, Shet-bags.

And YES.  Yes, DO throw me in the Nicotine Patch!!  DO! DO!  I may have wonky dreams, but hell, I'm finally SLEEPING again!&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Your dreams are funny!  I would argue for Stuart to have his own cup too.  He's too dignified to lap up a drink with cats or dogs.  
That's the thing when you deal with elderly people...they have a lot of good stories so they tend to think of something all the time.
Dang them and their life experience!!!!

&lt;em&gt;Les Says:  Ruby continues to tell me she's running out of stories.  I have to "luck into them" now, so to speak, hoping a word in the crossword puzzle (&lt;a href="http://lesbecker.com/LesBlog/2007/11/14/when-ruby-runs-out-of-stories/" target="_blank" rel=""&gt;SAMOYED&lt;/a&gt;, for instance) will spark something new.

PS - last night I dreamed of dirty catboxes, and a bartender that delivered beer by the bottle directly to my backyard.  I don't have a backyard.  I need a backyard.  And a bartender.</description>

		<description>Hi,les! Keep it up - stop smoking!
I'm just wondering, does ruby knows how popular she is on the whole blogosphere? Hehe, she shouldn't just keep the rent low, but rather give you a free board!

&lt;em&gt;Les Says:  It's a good thing you said "blogosphere" rather than "Internet".  Ruby considers the Internet to be a horrible invasion of privacy (because a pizza delivery place came up with her address when she gave them her phone number several years ago), rife with child pornographers and government spies.  

But she really likes to hear what my regular commenters think of the last story (Mushy is her favourite), and it's as if she considers the blogosphere to be separate from the Internet altogether.  And that the blogosphere consists of maybe ten or twenty blogs.  

So, no, I guess she doesn't realize the scope of it all.  I think she picks up a few new fans a week if the stats are any indication.  I wish you would ALL comment!

I'm going to mention the free board idea.  I doubt it will fly, but it's a good idea in my books.&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Stop the smoking!  It stinks!

I love Craig...stay up late to watch him... genius if ever there was one!

&lt;em&gt;Les Says:  Two weeks tomorrow as a non-smoker, Mushy...!  Hey, maybe Craig will give me a plaque for that?!&lt;em&gt;</description>

		<description>I'd let you have my velvet Elvis but my paint by number Jesus would be lonely without him.
