    What an obscure "detour," if you will, down Memory Lane this has been for me, because, believe it or not, I attended Catholic grade school with a boy named Philip Dhirt. Get it? Fill Dirt! Yeah, well, Philly didn't think it was funny either.

    Thanks for the ride on the Wayback Machine, Jim! Have a nice week!

    All I can say to that husband is "Good luck with that." Hilarious, Jim. I had a hard time with this photo--couldn't come up with anything funny. You did well!

    What a good hubby to make such promises! I like your different view of this. I had a rough go of it this week.

    "Some" fill dirt? He may have opened the door to a never-ending project. Clever and fun idea!

    LOL That's going to take a filling to get the garden back.
