That episode escapes me. I like the one where Newman & Creamer get the bright idea to return cans & bottles to Maine because you can get an extra 5 cents for them there. They take a mail truck to do it. I know, kinda boring due to no SF stuff in it but still funny.

Isn't that the one where Kramer adopted a part of the highway and decided to add extra lanes to the highway and got the lines painted wrong? I just remember the truck exploding.

Rob and I have just been watching a hilarious thing unfold on our street.
It's Sunday afternoon and we live at the end of a cul de sac. We've been watching three young teenage girls wandering up and down the street, giggling and squealing and sitting on the side of the road. One of them got up and called out "hellooo" to one of our neighbour's houses. Then they all got the giggles and ran to the top of the street again.
I said to Rob "mark my words, there's a teenage boy somewhere in this vicinity." He said "duh".
Sure enough a van soon starts backing out of our neighbour's driveway. I had just gone inside and I heard the unmistakeable noise of a puncture. Tee hee, he'd backed into something sharp. Out gets a teenage boy, looking horribly embarrassed. The girls all giggle some more and take off up the street, leaving him looking at his lopsided van.
The mating dance of the very young. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Todd,
You are quiet today. Mariachis last night?
I have decided that larousse with all her dictionaries works for a Mexican manufacturing company that exports to the US and Canada. I am looking at my desk. I have new (120V) speakers for the PC's upstairs, DVD jewel cases, recordable CD's etc. and everything is labeled in English and french. Even though there are only about 100,000 people somewhere in Canada that speak french, we cannot offend them. Forget that 2/3rds of the population of the USA speak native Spanish. Not one single word in THAT language. We should just embargo Quebec. It would make life much simpler. (Don't tell luna I said that)

One can never have too many glazes. Beside the skill with which one makes their work, the uniqueness, though pottery's been around for a gazillion years so unique is a misnomer, glazing techniques & colors set one's work apart. Plus, the same colors over & over, even when you know they are dependable, gets boring.
If I buy 5 new glazes & one of those is a keeper I feel fortunate. You don't just slap it on & have it come out as the company has shown. It's all a crap shoot. As a matter of fact many people quit pottery or stick with only what they know works because of the failure rate.

Kiwi, my oldest son, all really are good looking boys. And I don't think it's just my opinion but...Any way when he & I go places I see girls look at him & smile hoping he'll look back. Sometimes they huddle close, poke each other & point & giggle & I wonder why they don't just pull themselves apart & say "Hi". He gets embarassed & doesn't look at them which they probably take as aloofness. If they only knew he's scared too...Boy am I thankfull to not be a teenager.

I think it is very sweet of you Pio to try to entice Todd back by talking of tools & doing some french bashing.
I would not have brought up WW stuff had Todd not addressed it earlier. If I've disturbed you Todd, I'm sorry. Shall we talk of SF & food & how no SF really is sucky?

LOL nams.
They can't pull themselves apart and say "hi". They're teenage girls. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Even though I was one of 4 girls I was never a girly girl & I never understood the hurd or huddle mentality. I don't think I have ever grabed onto a girlfriend's arm & giggled & pointed at & a boy in my life. Now, men, yes...what's not to giggle at?

One can never have too many glazes. Now I can respect that! Same way I feel about tools.

I'm afraid I have injured myself horribly. I really love my new combination accunozzle showerhead. The main part is wonderful and is 12" in diameter. I always keep it set on the "soothing Orinoco rain/Amazon mist" setting. The head has to be that large to have all this printing on it. Anyway, I use it for washing head/torso but I have a handheld showerhead for washing below that. All I have to do is rotate the valve handle on the T connector and the water switches from one to the other. Anyway, I always keep the handheld part adjusted to the "Colorado Mountain Stream" setting. I don't use the massager part so I have no need to change it. So I finish washing my upper body, grab the handheld and position it where I will need it and then turn the valve over so the water comes out there. For some reason, apparently the maid either inadvertently or intentionally rotated the setting ring to "Bonzai Tsunami Crusher" when she was cleaning the bathroom yesterday. No idea why she did that but now I'm speaking in a very high pitched voice and can't walk. I also see nothing but red fonts.

Y'know something. I'm starting to feel we're all getting as intimate with your nether regions as you are.

Well the good news is I've discovered yet another method of exfoliation and it is VERY efficient. I may need a skin graft.

Did you know that the word you just used on TT's thread is an extremely dirty word in NZ and Aust meaning the same as SF?
Every time I hear an American using it I nearly die from embarrassment.

Okay I think I figured out which was the bad word and I changed it. Man you people have one-track minds down there. Must be all the blood in your heads from standing upside down. Speaking of, where is BigK anyway?
I look outside this morning and saw a full moon. That means my misery is half over.

You didn't need to change it. It's a perfectly acceptable word in the rest of the world.
D'ya know something else? I didn't know that full moons were world wide. I don't know why I thought that. The full moon here at the moment is exceptionally bright.

There is a joke told here which completely escapes me but it has to do with cigars. I only remember the last two lines which are:
Cheroot?
I don't know, I didn't ask her.

I didn't know that full moons were world wide. the phase of the moone depend on whether we or it are closer to the sun. Just shadows. The only other possibility is a lunar eclipse when the earth gets in its way.
