Hi Guys,
I know this is off track but I need some help. I am trying to buy
something using onlinesafetrade.net as an escrow company. Have any of
you heard of or done business with this company before? I emailed them
and they said they were licensed to do business here in CaCaLand. They
only accept wire transfers and I think that is odd. Or is it only I
that think that to be odd. With all the scams out there I want to be
careful. The person that has the equipment is in Florida so I can't
just go there. They offered me a 20 day inspection. I just don't know
about the escrow company they have chosen. They said they have had 3
successful transactions with onlinesafetrade.net Any suggestions for me
to protect myself?
Now for the fun stuff! For Thanksgiving I decided to give my furries a
sweet treat, which they never get. I cruised the aisles of the grocery
store and settled on banana baby food. Upon opening of the jar I tasted
it. YUCK! I hope they like it better than me. Too tart. I tried to
give it to them individually. NO takers. Then I tried in pairs. Well
competition at least got a tongue lick or two but no one was in love
with it. Next it was a total group effort. 6 fuzzies. Captured in the
bathroom. I sat in the middle of the floor. They gathered in great
anticipation like I would have a goody. Then when I offered the "treat"
I was royally rejected once again. I got 2 sneezes, 2 cold shoulders, 1
pawed at it and then when she got some on her foot she shook it onto me
and one went and got a drink out of the toilet instead! Well, so much
for the "thanks" part of this thanksgiving. There certainly wasn't any
giving either as I couldn't find any takers. So, very begrudgingly I
dragged out the old yogies and gave everybody "just 1" which they haven't
had in well over 3 months. I think I heard one of em say "thanksforgivin
mom" as she ran off with a grin on her face! That was the best thing I
had heard all day!!
I hope you all had a wonderful day. Any idea what to do with an open jar
of banana baby food???? Maybe a facial?? Or hair food?? OR OR?? Hug a
fuzzy today, Mary Jo
