Tagalong strikes again

More evidence that Tagalong is dumber than a brick, if we didn't know already.

Tagalong (and Mother Samoa, to an extent) have a lovely habit of calling us every time some random person that Mr. Samoa doesn't remember from Samoa Homestate dies, or someone from Samoa Church that he also doesn't remember. They then want us to go to the viewing or funeral, which is inevitably in two hours, and get huffy when we don't go because 1)we don't have a transporter beam and 2) Mr. Samoa has no idea who this person is, and I sure as hell don't either.

So, bearing this in mind. Daisy's dad, Tagalong's ex, was rushed to the hospital last week with a potentially life-threatening health problem. He is OK, but it had to be scary for Daisy, and it was, well, lifethreatening. Now, we aren't fond of Tagalong's ex, but the ill will we have is more like wishing for birds to poop on his head and malware to hose his hard drive, NOT death, for God's sake. Sooo.....

Do you think Tagalong calls and tells us that the FATHER OF HER CHILD nearly died? Oh hell no. We got the news from Mr. Florida, Mr. Samoa's friend who was watching the dogs this weekend. Mr. F nearly fell over when he learned we didn't know. So, can't bother to tell us that the FOHC is in intensive care at death's door, but has to call us every time Mrs. Finglehammer who sat three rows across from them in church and showed up once a month has a hangnail.

Yeah, Tagalong is not so bright.
