hey Bob

Sports reporter updating the latest heh heh heh <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

"KANGAROOS HUMILIATE BRITAIN <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
Farrell and Great Britain just can't believe it.
Australia turned on the style to stun an expectant capacity crowd at Elland Road and shatter Great Britain's hopes in the Gillette Tri-Nations final.

The Kangaroos recorded their biggest Test win in England and, like the Wallabies four hours earlier, showed how dangerous it can be to write them off in a 44 to 4 stunning win at Elland Road today..."

and in Rugby Union I have to report ....

AUSTRALIA HOLD OFF ENGLAND FIGHTBACK
England fall to the first defeat under new coach Andy Robinson after Australia ran out narrow 21-19 winners at Twickenham........

sorry Bob rubbing it in a bit but you get to gloat when Johnny gets back because if he had been there I think you would have won.

MEANWHILE....

the US Rugby team the EAGLES fall tour of Rome & Ireland meet with moderate success and the results of their games in the World Rugby Classic in Hamilton, Bermuda is eagerly awaited..

this reporter wants to know where her invitation to the Mardi Gras Rugby Classic in New Orleans, LA on 27-28 Jan 2005 has gotten to????? hey Mr Mayor ????? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Nothing like free medical care! I guess we'd have to adopt if we wanted another little one...

I'm sure Aussie will be excited! So are you going to tell him right away, or wait until he gets home?

Wellll
thats the $64,000 question isn't it.

Alright I'm waiting on the blood test but lets face it, I dont think I could have stuffed 3 tests do you?

But as for telling him, I'm not sure. I mean it may not be an issue BECAUSE HE HASN"T CONTACTED ME.... sorry just popped out heh heh <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

but it might depend on whats going on when or if I get a call. If hes in a lot of tough stuff going on I'll just reassure him all is ok I'm doing well I think, I really don't know. Wow I'm confused.
Maybe I'll ring and ask the Family support Psych tomorrow. I want to do what best for him. I cetainly don't want him worrying or abstracted in that damn place!!

Good morning Idiotville -

Hello AW, L.I.T and RIF - Everyone forgets I'm the cheerleader (and I just haven't been up to cheering lately - yeah , I'll get around to it eventually - no one said you had to be good at your job here in Idiotville. Just take a look at Fraggs - some bartender ay?)

Well, anyway I'll be "lurking" - truth be known - I've been reading and catching up and I don't really talk "sport" - though Football (American - not Soccer) and Hockey are my favs. I can follow enough of the game to watch and enjoy it - I just don't have time to "watch".

As far as playing an instrument .... that really skipped a generation. My dad (RIP) could play saxaphone, piano, bass guitar, lead guitar, drums, clarinet, oh God knows what else .... now my kids play in bands and have self taught themselves how to play be ear mostly. They actually came in 2nd place (out of 11 bands) at the Battle of the Bands on Friday night at the Library (our public library ROCKS!!!). My D is trying to get a band together too (all girl of course - she's 11 YO) - so maybe next year of my kids will particiapte (except my 3 YO - but you never know - she's got pipes too). I do have to say I used to have some pipes - church choir ya know - a few solos (I was always to scared to perform in front of people).

AW - And sincerely "you're not too old" (I'm 37). and congrats. It's not easy - but what the he11 is???? My kids range from 19S, 18S, D11, & D3. OY OY OY (or is that OI OI OI!)

Well, speak at ya later peeps and if ya hit it on the boards - I'll hollar back at ya - Ight?(translation - I'll talk to you people later and if you post to me, I'll respond to you. Okay?) I was talking "american teen", I'm well versed in it (they don't call me "Mamma Dukes" for nothing <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> ).

Brown

My aunt had her last child when she was 43! It was her 8th! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> Can you tell we are a Catholic family <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Anyway, you are blessed AW. I think you are keeping a "healthy" view on it......it is what it is.....and you might as well embrace it with love and joy.

You are worried about Aussie. But I wouldn't. Even if he is having a tough time in Iraq, I would find it hard pressed for a man who loves his W (as we all know he does) to see this as a negative. I hope he is able to perceive it for what it really is.....a child of love, and a new beginning for your M.

Anyway, I wouldn't keep it from him....even if you don't think it's the right time. Now is a time for radical honesty (see Justuss, we do really throw in a couple of MB principles here <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> ). You could tell him you would be worried about how he might react, but that you wanted to be truthful with him, and that meant more than worrying about his reaction.

JMVHO......and I'm not sure if I would put much stock in that, considering my sitch <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Anyway.........how 'bout that Rugby <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> . Just kidding, I have no idea about those things! Only thing I know is College Football, and the Aggies lost to tu the other day <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" />

Whine alert, Whine alert! Everyone take cover! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

By the way.......

Who made this rule about only being able to have 8 emoticons in a message......

It is just SSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO wrong! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> Oh ma gah. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="images/icons/cool.gif" />


( <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="images/icons/blush.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> )....Just being a smart ( )( ) now!

Hey Brown!

Hollah!

(That and being " on blast " is about all I know in "cool teen" now.)

My brother (when he moved to CA about 10 years ago) learned a new language. He had a conversation with a friend on the phone one night.....

" 'Lo? Yo. Kay........late. "

I thought it was the funniest thing I ever heard! (Translation: Hello? Oh, hi so-and-so! Okay, yes! Good bye!) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> Took me a while to figure that one out <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Hey L.I.T - never tried to post more than 8 smiley faces... o <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="images/icons/cool.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />
MSU lost to Ole Miss in the Egg Bowl so I'm right there with you Aggies... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

WOW... I tried to post more than 8 smiley faces and got some dumb message that I had exceeded the limit! ha ha ha...

RIF - I'm so sorry about your loss <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" /> (sounds kind of morbind, huh? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> ). My cousin goes to Ole Miss, but his parents (Uncle Buddy and Aunt Maggie <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> ) go to tu.....

sooooooooooooooo....I figure I might as well just root against ALL their family football teams! What rationale, no?

The emoticon thing.....kind of like people telling you you can't lick your own elbow <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Congrats !

Great game the Union one BTW. Yeah its frustrating to lose when we scored three tries to two but such is life.

Not sure Johnny's every going to return. He's fragile since his surgery. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />
