  1. Where are the bushwood stories? I heard there was a werewolf, a crazy guy, a skinny punk who gives orders, an Azerbaijani with an anteater, and a real, non animated version of Ace and Gary from SNL.

  2. LOL@ “Ace and Gary”. Dave, my favorite is #12. Me thinks it should go up to #1.

  3. i prefer #14.

  4. dave, i love reading your entries, but please, take this suggestion:

    Minimize the usage of “ridiculous,” “my boy,” and “good buddy.”

    It would make your writing that more professional and interesting!

  5. I just wanted to update everyone to let you know that I am crushing my to do list!

    I have added an extra:

    #32- Use more compelling words to describe my wonderfully interesting compadres in my to do lists.

    If you’ll excuse me, I need to go and do some things.

    DF

  6. Dave can call me his boy anytime. Whats wrong with ‘ridiculous’?

  7. #33 - Work on my net game

  8. #33b. Play on my network.
