It WAS the 80s.

I thought some of the page had been missed off. If you right click and go to view image you get the whole thing.

What is scrapping? Or scrapbooking? Or whatever it is called.

Is it a metaphor?

Pio, you are letting DD's watch Grease?

Why even let them know who John Revolting is?

Pio,

Are you there?

Say a prayer
For the pretender
Who started out so young and strong
Only to surrender.

I don't know why Jackson Browne's song popped in my head after I asked are you there but it did.

Anyway, do NOT go to the "other" site. It is depressing as he!!. There is a thread in which BW are wishing they were more like OW so their WH would love them more. More OP discoveries. And one soldier in Iraq ready to punch his ticket because he received the infamous Dear John letter.

Did you ever get your VIN or gas tank or whatever you needed. If not, I have connections in auto parts in Houston. Let me know. Anything but mufflers. Don't know why that is the case but... anything but mufflers.

Unfortunately, I cannot get to my clamp collection. I asked DS1 if he had any clamps. He handed me a box and my face lit up. Over fifty clamps. Not there yet, but he is young. Heck, it took me 57 years. Anyway, I now have three more. It's a good thing he has so many. The way my WW is going, I will need all of his and mine.

Scrapbooking is a metaphor for life. Did you see I only got two pages into TOMATS.

What "other site"? Is it a simile?

The "other" infidelity site forum. survivinginfidelity.com or something like that. It is where I began and bigger convinced me to leave. He was right. ToddAC stayed too long over there. The only thing worse would be TOW.

Personally, I think MB is time-consuming enough - I can't imagine keeping up with more than one site.

Pio, my youngest twin had the same eye problem but was hopeless at wearing glasses after the novelty wore off. Her eyes have corrected themselves anyway.

Jen - love the piccies. The shorts DO look pink!

The problem I have with SI is that there is no consistency and it is also full of bitter people who would prefer to wallow in misery than get up off their butt and do something about their sitch. For every one promarriage post, I would get three or four PM's telling me to divorce the (w)itch immediately. I was confused enough at the time that I didn't need others' help. So bigger told me to move over here. Unfortunately I went back to that site enough to learn about bigger's crooked nose and three humped bum - partly to do with the fact that apparently a grown man didn't know that ice was slippery.

It's a short book; you were halfway through it. Go ahead and finish.

Didn't Hemingway blow his brains out?

It had to be because of that book.

I see the site differently. I think SI is more real. MB sometimes just seems like lala land to me. It reminds me of Jonestown in that everyone here will drink the kool-aid. Plus, at SI, you can post any word you desire except the "c" word of course. Never understood about the c word.

To its credit, MB has a formal program to follow. SI is a quilt of folksy lessons others have passed on. I like both but honestly, all I do here at MB is play in your thread. Okay, I do post in other threads from time to time but not often. Usually, when I get interested in a new thread, the starter will disappear. Hiker45 is a prime example. He just vanished off the face of the Earth one day.

I wish Dr. Frank Pittman had a community website. I like his no nonsense, take no prisoners approach. He is who I am going to when I finally start IC. He loves to do reality testing up front; should be fun. Maybe he can write a book about me.

This bigger you speak of, who is he?

It's a world of laughter
- A world of tears
It's a world of hopes
- And a world of fears
There's so much that we share
- That it's time we're aware

(Everybody)

It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small, small world


There is just one moon
- And one golden sun
And a smile means
- Friendship to every one
Though the mountains divide
- And the oceans are wide

(Everybody)

It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small, small world

Sorry ToddAC. I have been busy hitting every scrapbook shop in Houston today. That darn Hertz NeverLost found ever single one of them.

Another Saturday Night and I ain't got nobody,
I have some money ‘cause I just got paid.
How I wish I had someone to talk to,
I'm in an awful way.

WW needs a diversion. Do you want me to paste the link to Madame Alexander?

This would be the perfect doll to get her started. Mexico. She could add some international dolls and then settle in to conquer every GWTW doll in existence. If she gets interested in GWTW, hunker down man, hunker down. And just hand the wallet, credit cards, debit cards, checks and all accounts so she can feed her habit.

Of course, WW is now telling DS3 that she is going to sell her GWTW doll collection. Bear in mind the announced reason for buying the things in the first place was because they are "good investments". But, what will WW do? She will sell them for pennies on the dollar. Just like she did her wedding rings.

Dolls just don't do it for me. I loved them when I was a girl but I don't ever want to COLLECT them.

Thank you for "It's a small world". Not something I want to get an earworm with.
