Larousse,

Sorry, it was a joke. George was a character on a very popular television show, "Seinfeld". In one episode, George pretended to be a marine biologist.

ahahaha

I don't have TV Todd.

BTW Larousse, I have a friend here in Atlanta who is from Monterrey. He has a PhD in chemistry from Stanford. He is one of the smartest people I know. In addition to being a sceintist, he is also an inventor and has made his company a lot of money. His DD is DS2's girlfriend. DS2 just gave her a "promise" ring so things are getting serious. Of course, they have been GF/BF since their sophomore year in high school.

He found the ring in a box of CrackerJack so perhaps your BF will want to change his ring tactics, lol.

Sorry, I'm butting in here. I've finally got DD's photos sorted out and I've left the one of the snails in.

Jen's DD

Hi Kiwi

love pics!

What a beautiful DD!

Hey, no using French words in TKO. Call them snails; it's what they are anyway...
You can clearly see that BF is tall in the pic with the Awful Tower in the background.

Where did DD learn to drive a boat?

Todd,

My older sister has a Master in Ocean Chemistry. Her hands are full of marks of lab test gone wrong, lol.

Thanks guys.

BF is 6'3", DD is 5'2".

She probably learned to drive a boat right then. LOL.

She's beautiful Kiwi and what a wonderful trip.

Has everyone noticed the downward spiral in the cost of gasoline? Gasoline in Atlanta is $1.91 per gallon, or $0.50 per liter.

It's gone down here too.

Do you think no news is good news with Pio?

Not necessarily. I think no news is no news. It is 1:30 am in SA so my guess is they are in bed. Doing what is anyone's guess...

Oh.

larousse, you are a terribly naughty girl! Sweet though.

Kiwi, nice pics. Your daughter "looks American", I'll bet people look at her funny when she speaks. I hope they don't but I'll bet they do. Then they ask her if she's British.

Todd, ex's idea of spontaneity was the same as your WW. One of my birthday's he suggested an overnight trip to the northwest corner of CT. It's beautiful this time of year with all the leaves changing colors & many people are "leaf peeping". I thought, fabulous! No planning & a trip, doesn't get any better than that. Our first child, not yet two, was with us.

Turns out he hadn't made plans we drove for hours, found nothing available. We had to turn around & head back home. At 11pm we could go no further & stopped at a motel. After chasing son around the room for a while he was just settled down to sleep. The fire alarm goes off. We have to climb over a fence to get away from the motel just in case it really was on fire.

No fire just idiot partiers who were now louder than ever. At One in the morning we packed up & went home.

We have an urban legend. Two actually. Todd's story of the boy with the bat thinking he caused the huge NY power outage. Mine concerns the same power outage but a boy had thrown his shoes over a power line. They were tied together & ended up drapped over the power line with the power going out at that very moment.

Todd, I think your rash was a latent reaction to the lack of SF....Or maybe just talking about it.

My student just called to ask if we can postpone class due to the holiday. See, I told you earlier Columbus day is a major holiday here. I get to stay & play for a bit. My boys are still with their father & will be home around 9.

Isn't Pio usually up at 3:30 am? We may get some news a little later.

Gas here in CT is $2.33 at BJ's, y'all know BJ's? It's like Sam's Club or Costco. We're one of the highest in the nation due to the tax we impose.

Nam,

in your part of the world men buy gas and BJ? OMG!



Did you see the Mexican song for you?

Pio and G are visiting the Golden Gate.

Back for some catching up then I am off again...


Todd.....Larousse is right...you should give her a B letter...WS have been known to be forgetful....and please....STOP TALKING TO HER!!!

Every time you have these kind of talks... your Lovebank is going further and further in the red....



....and this is exactly why you need to stop talking to her!



I am going to probably again be accused of being Larousse...but I agree with her, Todd.... Steve is a very nice chap to talk to...I think you would like him, too.....


Larousse....it's just a very silly question....but why did you pick a French word for your name? ..and yes....I know...but we saw the picture....it wasn't the only book on the shelf!

Nams, I forgot to ask... did you treat yourself to something special on your birthday?

...if not...it's never too late!

Or chewing my knuckles off. Yeah, that's it! I am allergic to knuckles. Or toes. Or elbows. I need a life.


I believe it is more of a major holiday in the NE because of the large Italian-American population. I've always wondered which group should celebrate. Columbus was indeed from Italy but it was Spain who financed his trip to sail off the end of the world. Do Spanish-Americans celebrate?

Inquiring minds want to know.
