A big thank you to Paul, who I used to work with, who put that quote on his website along with several other quotes (mostly by famous folks). I think those famous people quote sites must spider out or people search for quotes on other sites and I somehow got pulled into the mix!
Jege, it started when Heidi and I were driving down to ABQ to see you and we meowed showtunes on the entire Kansas city (turnpike? what is that weird toll road there called?).
Emily is now listed on Floyd's People Who Are Assholes list. Floyd wants Em to know that it's not her fault this dumb-ass quote got picked up by BrainyQuote while Floyd's brilliance remains unheralded. It is the sheer ludicrous content of the quote that requires the listing. Hugs.
:) Ahh, please tell me how mom and dad thought it would be a good idea to drive a Citation to the west coast with 3 kids in it! That was the car we took on that trip, wasn't it?
Yes indeedy it was. A two-tone Chevy Citation, 1982 model, I believe. Heckuva vehicle, despite its ugliness (it served me well in college....it started at 50 below, and I swear that the fucker got 60 mpg).
Floyd knows how to laugh as his sense of humor is highly advanced. For example:
Why did the monkey fall out of the tree? Because he was dead.
That just slays Floyd. Jege has petitioned Floyd to move Em to the People Who Don't Suck list based upon a pillow she made that has "Go Fuck Yourself" embroidered on it. Floyd is seriously considering this.
Also along w/ that collection of charming housewares is an embroidered handtowel that says 'Fuck You' next to a kitty sleeping and another handtowel covered with little plastic flying kitties w/ crazed eyes :)
Floyd sympathizes, but cannot play the part of JoJo the Idiot Boy every time you get upset. Sheesh!
Floyd also notes Jege's referral to herself in the third person and wonders if this could be a new wave in American expression. Floyd would follow this with a "God bless the U.S." or something similar but fears lawsuits from the likes of Michael Newdow.

I'm now on a couple of other quote sites too :)

Floyd is considering a less flattering photo for Em's listing.

Floyd needs to be able to laugh a little. was only kidding.

You kids knock it off, or I'm pulling this car over.

I'm honored by the dual listing, Floyd :)

Dammit Floyd, I wanted to be by the naked dude!!! Emily ALWAYS gets to be by the naked dude (if I had a nickel....)....

note: the above comment will make little sense unless you have visited floyd's lists at http://floydslists.blogspot.com/

Floyd appreciates the plug. Floyd assumed people would link through the profile, but agrees that name reinforcement is a powerful marketing tool.
Before Floyd moves Jege to the spot next to Keith, Floyd wishes to know if Em objects to this. Floyd is an equal opportunity offender.

Hey, Jege is right. I do spend a lot of time next to naked men (or at least 1 in particular), I'm fine with Jege getting a swing at it.
Thursday, September 29, 2005 at 6:12:00 AM PDT
Floyd hopes you ladies are happy now.
Thursday, September 29, 2005 at 6:59:00 AM PDT
Jege is appeased.
Thursday, September 29, 2005 at 8:04:00 AM PDT
Floyd sighs in relief.
Thursday, September 29, 2005 at 12:56:00 PM PDT
Jege is now pissed again, after hearing a coworker repeatedly use the word "supposebly".
Thursday, September 29, 2005 at 3:08:00 PM PDT
Let me guess, they were drinking expresso too...
Thursday, September 29, 2005 at 3:42:00 PM PDT
I don't remember. My white-hot annoyance blinded me from noticing anything else.

Jege is drunk and therefore not annoyed anymore.
P.S.- word verification: BRUCHA !

mmmmmmm....beeeeeer

I have a quote for BrainyQuote:
"Floyd is a grumpy old fuck"
-Timothy (The Bad) Crane
Also, one of my all-time favorites does not seem to be there:
"I drank what?"
