    I used to work for a company in the customer service department. We answered the phone saying "Customer Service, this is Miss whatever". One night at the dinner table my father told me to say grace, well I blurted out "Customer Service, this is ...." What a laugh we had. Thanks for reminding me.

    My son was working on an intricate symmetrical art project once. I told him to just fold it up and do a stack and whack. The look on his face was priceless.

    Hi, your title made me curious, so I looked up quilts with convicts. Very impressive. The work must bring satisfaction and a good outlet for creativity and frustration for the prisoners. Good for you. Nancy

    My son in law has been diagnosed with sleep apnea and will be put on a c-pap at night.
    He was walking around the house moaning:
    "Oh great! next week I have to go get that pap smear machine!"
