	Rep Power: 4791449            |  THIN MINTS!!!! 
			
			The topic: THIN MINTS (or your favorite Girl Scout Cookie) You know, the kind sold by those sneaky little Girl Scouts.... no matter how hard you avoid them, they FIND YOU!!!! If I didn't know any better, I think they earn badges on how to stalk potential cookie buyers (aka: SUCKERS) I NEVER, ever, in a million years, thought I would see a Girl Scout at the Fort Worth Stock Show Parade Staging Grounds where it was 40 degrees and rainy.... and overall nasty weather..... we were all done with our part of the parade, (which, by the way, is the longest non-motorized parade in the world) and my team and I were unsaddling our horses and had gotten them loaded up in the trailers....when out of nowhere like she was stalking me, comes this little girl...." 'scuse me" she says.... "yes young lady, can I help you" was my reply (mistake #1.... I should have run like the wind).... what can I say.... I thought she needed help.... and ..... well, nevermind.... when her face brightened up I should have known to run, but nooooo.... I stood there and my jaw dropped as she asks "wudja like to buy some girl scout cookies?" y'all would be proud of me, I only bought ONE box of Thin Mints....... right along with the box of Carmel Delights and the shortbread cookies.... dammit..... how many and what kind of Girl Scout Cookies are ya gonna buy this year???? |

			I confess...oh, wrong thread!    Ah, the dreaded girl scout cookie!!! My household always orders at least 3 boxes of Thin Mints..wait. That's me..not my household. My wife orders some other kind of not near so good boxes of Girl Scout cookies. I figure we are hunted down by them for all my years selling them - the people who were kind adults then are now sending their grandchildren after me, order forms in hand!! Mmmm...how soon do they get here? *salivating just a tad* |

			I managed to not buy any last year. It helps not having an office with co-workers who have kids that age. This year, I might have to break down and buy a box of thin mints. Sooo yummy!   They freeze really well, too.

			omg I looooove Girl Scout cookies. I'm trying my best not to buy cases of them (as I have done in the past). I usually get Thin Mints because I love them frozen, and Carmel Delites because, well...they're just awesome...lol

			Another Thin Mints kinda gal! I also sold GS cookies when they were .50 a box. I held the parents I babysat for randsom. "Don't buy my cookies and you no longer have a great inexpensive babysitter who does not eat everything in your refrigerator and washes dishes too!"
