FRIENDS, YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS....
Yusuf sent me a letter, handwritten and everything. I almost fell out of my chair when I opened it. He said that he is seriously contemplating performing his CAT material in concert again. Now, you don't have any idea how excited I am about this. He actually wrote to me and told me personally. I started screaming with joy as my husband looked baffled.
I will quote the letter:
"A'isha, I want you to be the first to know that I am making preparations to start performing my Cat material. It has been a long time for me, alot of thought, meditation and prayer have gone into this decision to return. I know, I still could back out but as it looks at this time I will be returning. Barry Krost is assisting me in setting up a North American tour sometime next year. I have contacted Vivian as well since she and you are my biggest fans. I would appreciate it if you would spread the news to all the sites that '''THE CAT IS BACK AND YOU THOUGHT HE WAS A GONER"."
So you see, he is coming back. Hey he is even going to perform the Yusuf material.
ISN'T THAT SOOOO COOL...
Peace/love/happiness
A'isha
PS....April Fools

Pretty clever there A'isha. If you're like me, so busy you don't know what day it is, you're liable to believe just about anything, hehehehe. Honest, April sneaked right up on me. ...kim

I love the wishful thinking and fantasies. And Kim, I love pranks. If I put on my prankster mode I could probably convince someone to buy the Brooklyn Bridge. I am that evil... 8) Now, having the ability to make up tall tales runs in my family, but my kids are on to me. They question everything I say, especially the small one. But she is a clone of me so she does the same types of things. One day my oldest went into the kitchen and started screaming. I ran into the room to find her covered in 'blood'. I freaked out and then noticed that the 'blood' was ketchup. She is a mean prankster. I have to think of something elaborate for next April. Hmmmm it will take some work, but someone has to be evil.  Love, A'isha |

Hehhe A'isha. I'm such a sucker for pranks. My husband is always tying to pul the wool over my eyes somehow. When I first moved out here we went to Seattle to the Space Needle. We were walking around the observatory and he very seriously starts telling me about how right after they got the Space Needle up they had to take it down. Me, playing right into this hands, asked 'why'. The answer - are you ready for this -
I could have choked him. Now that's become a reoccuring joke with us. Everytime we hear something on the news about the Space Needle one of always mentions how they forgot to thread it. ....kim

Now that is funny Kim. You really should think about submitting that joke to a joke publisher. To me, life with a good sense-of-humor and the ability to play a prank or laugh at one is essential. <br> I don't know if any of you have ever tasted them but Arabic food stores sell roasted chick peas. They are crunchy and very tasty. One time I had a bag of them and each time I bit into one it was extremely hard and almost impossible to eat. Unless they are salted you can't tell the roasted peas from the dried ones. Mary had gone and put some of the dried ones in the bag with the roasted ones. She still, after seven years, taunts me with that one. Yeah, she almost broke a couple of my teeth. This same adorable child pretended to run away from home and I almost called 911 before she appeared. The girl hasn't changed much since growing up and marrying. Last week she put Ben Gay in Thamer's hair jell and is thinking of putting it in his underwear. She is also discussing the old, 'laxative' routine. Yes, in my family this is a good motto: "Life is a circus and we are the clowns."  Love, A'isha |

Hahaha! That's funny Kim and A'isha Jeff is constantly playing jokes on me too. I can usually tell now when he's got something up his sleeve..hehe One thing I do to him (and he NEVER learns!) is hide right inside our bedroom door (or behind it) at night when he goes to the bathroom. Of course, he comes out of the bathroom and I scare the bejeebers out of him - EVERY TIME! It's so funny because he never learns and always falls for it...hahaha One night he was napping on the couch and I put a blob of shaving cream in his hand. He wiped his face as he was waking up and wound up with shaving cream all over it. As you can see, I have no new tricks...just old well worn ones...hehehe <-------no imagination here..hehe peace and love, Susan |

But Susan, those old pranks are classics and they work well. That is why they withstood the sands of time. I do the ole 'jump out of a closet thing on my husband and kids'.
Okay, this one is mean. If you have someone who always annoys you. You know the type, you have a neighbor who kicks your dogs and cats and you want a great mean prank to get that ultimate revenge. Get a bag of Purina Puppy Chow and get a box of Cracklin Oat bran. You see the cereal looks almost identical to the dog food. Carefully open the box of cereal in a way that can be closed back without anyone noticing. The bag inside is more tricky but that can easily be remedied by removing the entire bag, and emptying it. Save that yummy cereal for your kids. Take the dogfood and pour it back into the bag and put the open end in the bottom of the box so that it won't be noticeable. Seal the box back up with glue and then go to the computer and type up a sign that says, "A FREE SAMPLE FOR YOU, TRY OUR PRODUCT", or some similar thing. During a time when you won't be detected slip the cereal box into the enemy's mailbox, mail slot or put it on the porch....hehehehe evil I am eh? You should hear my idea about putting chocolate bark coating on trophies from the kitty litter box. Granted I would not do these things to those who are nice but it is fun to think about when someone you totally dislike bugs you.
Okay, now Mary is talking about putting depillatory into her husband's hair gel. I am working on convincing her NOT to do this one.
Love,
A'isha
