Murph/Mitzi/Buttefly/Resilient & Gang !<P>Looks like I'll be # 905 - Wow! This is as exciting as sitting around and watching 'cheese mold' (ha!)<P>Did you hear about the 2 blondes that wanted to build a house? One of them goes into Home Depot and tells the clerk "I need a bunch of 4 x 2's" - The clerk says "don't you mean <BR>2 x 4's?"<P>The blonde says "wait a minute" and she goes out to check with her friend in the truck.<P>She comes back in and says "Right, 2 x 4's" -<BR>So the clerk says "well, how long will you need them?" The blonde says "wait a minute" and she goes back out to the truck to check with her blonde friend.<P>She comes back in and tells the clerk "well, we are building a house so I guess we will need them a VERY LONG TIME!"<P>.....and the beat goes on!<P>[censored] from Texas

<BR> I might be able to find you a '99 Volvo C70 convertible.There must be one around here somewhere.
<BR> But if you want that ice cream,I guess I can leave it at the Post Office here for you to pick up.How's that sound? <P> Jodie,<BR>I knew you were being a sweetheart,and left the post for Busty.You're OK in my book!

Oh, My!!!<P>What in the world happens when you're away from this board for......I don't know, 2 or 3 months???????? Okay Mitzi, I don't have time to read it all - email me. I know, I know, I'm just as responsible for not keeping in email. But, unfortunately, I'm back.
Murph,<P>What? You're complaining about our weather? Boy, some people around this neck of the woods complain when the weather is nice, then they complain about the rain..............I'm just glad to have some of the mold and mildew dry up and flake off. I'm with Butterfly....but I don't go golfing until tomorrow
I wanted to go today, but had to play big cheese since my boss left early. BUT!!!!!!!I get to leave early tomorrow!!!! <P>So, if Mitzi comes to our town <B>I want to meet</B><BR>
RC,<BR>Well, I wish I could be there to go golf with you.... We got rained out. But, we really really needed the rain. <P>Ok, Murph... I'll take the Kewpie Doll. I'll take anything I can get
... But Microsoft stock would do. That C70 sounds pretty good too.... Hummmmmmm decissions decissions. I don't think the ice cream will ever make it out of the post office.... especially with the heat you have there
. But if it keeps the postal workers happy... who am I to complain.<P>Mitz, <BR>My partner in stalking! Thanks for leaving the 900th post for me. Who else would have been goofy enough to post 900 smilies!! LOL LOL<P>[censored], I'd want 2x4's instead of 4x2's.... they're cheaper, arn't they??? <P>So, where is everyone tonight? I'm going to go change my hair color. I'm thinking pink with purple stripes and maybe a few neon green highlights. I'll send pictures. <P>Smooches,<BR>BB
Ok, I can't read page 61. The 900 smilies messed up my web tv.
<P>But hey! I'm here now on page 62. That's what matters!<P>RC,<BR>If and when I get to WA, we will definately meet! There are soooo many that I'd have to look up. Even Curious George would be on my list! LOL<P>Anyhoo...I'm here!
<P>Jodie/Mitz
Jodie,<BR> Your Web TV blew a gasket with all those smiles,huh?<BR> I drove down to the beach yesterday afternoon,but it was so jammed,I couldn't find a place to park.
Funny,I don't have a problem when it's raining.<BR> If you do come to WA,you might try flying.The important thing is:<BR>

Here comes #925..........<P>Gina/w.g.up.h<P>I live in Southwest Fort Worth and work in the mid-cities area right next to Arlington.<BR>Been here almost 14 years.<P>Thanks to those who like the blonde jokes (even though Murph says he doesn't get them).<P>Weather in Texas is H-O-T & humid.

High today around 93 degrees & humid.<P>For those of you old enough to remember the old "woody" station wagons, the ones with real wood on the outside, this joke is for you.<P>Did you hear about the 2 blondes who pooled their life savings to buy a brand new woody station wagon?<P>They drove it off the lot and got home around 6:00 pm. They pulled it in the garage and each began prying off all the wood with crow-bars.<P>They labored until around Midnight until they finished.<P>Utterly exhausted, one of the blondes looked at the other and said "Know what? I think I liked it better in the crate".<P>Ok.....you talked me into it....here's one more.<P>Did you hear about the blonde who tried to hold up a bank? She went through the outside lane of the drive through and dropped a gun into the tube with a note attached to it.<P>The note said "Give me all your money or I'll <BR>shoot you with this gun".<P>I better leave on that......<P>[censored] from Texas

<P><B>Mitz</B>, <BR>I'm sorry
I will go back and edit them out so you can read that page. <BR>I didn't realize that puting that many smilies in one post would create these problems.<P>I got excited when I saw the thread Dana posted.... I was expecting picture. If they arn't posted before I leave (in less than 24 hours now!), I'll try to get over to my cousin's house and check in while I'm gone.<P><B>George</B>,<BR>You'd love the weather we had here yesterday! It was upper 80's by 10:00 am, probably got to 90-93 by midday. Then, mid afternoon, the clouds started rolling in.... temp dropped to about 70 at 5:20 pm (tee time). Well, the wind & rain kicked up, and by 6:30 the temp had dropped to <B>52</B>!! Bbbbbbuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!! I froze my Bu%% off! I was so cold, I considered hooking my heater back up!

Ok...I can't resist.<P>Did you hear about the blonde and the brunette that broke down in the desert, miles from nowhere?<P>They decided the only way they might survive would be to try to leave their car and find help.<P>The brunette suggested they each take something valuable from the car that might help them survive the trip.<P>So, the brunette decided to drain the radiator and take the water with them in case they got thirsty. The blonde took one of the doors off and put it over her shoulder.<P>As they began walking, the brunette asked the blonde why she took the door. The blonde replied "Well, I figured if it gets too hot, we can roll the window down".<P>Ouch!<P>Onwards towards the Big 1K<P>[censored] from Texas
You gotta laugh to keep from crying sometimes! I've had the day from H#**, and this struck me as funny...<P><I>Three weeks after her wedding day, Joanna called her minister.

Every marriage has to have its first <BR>fight!" <BR> <BR>"I know, I know!" said Joanna.

Uh Oh.... This one's for Mitzi.... I couldn't resist.<P><BR>An incompetent (probably blonde) counterfeiter spent all day making his funny <BR>money. At the end of the day he realizes he spent all his time making $15 bills. <BR> <BR>He figures that the only way he's going to get anything from this batch of money, is to find a place where the people aren't too bright and change his phony money for real cash. <BR> <BR>He travels to a small town in West Virginia and walks into a small Mom and Pop grocery store. He goes to the old man behind the counter and asks him, "Do you have change for a $15 bill?" <BR> <BR>The old man replies, "I sure do...How would you like that? An 8 and a 7 or two 6s and a three?" <P>

The name calling was an everyday occurrence. The other stuff was about once a week. Wasn't fun at all!<P>Gina,<BR>Did you make it to the airport in time?
<P>Red/Jodie/Mitz
Good Morning from Texas<P>The tension mounts as we near the Big 1K - Wonder to whom the honor will go for being the one to post the 1k<P>I appreciate the response to the blonde jokes except from Murph. I really don't know what his deal is....maybe somebody could enlighten me...oh well.<P>Here's a cute one I heard:<P>This old couple who had been married for 75 years was sitting on the front porch rocking when the husband spoke up and asked his wife, "what ever happened to our sex relations?" The wife responded..."don't you remember, we got a Christmas card from them last year?"<P>Ok....one more blonde joke (sorry Murph:<P>The blonde calls a locksmith from a payphone and tells him she's locked her keys in the car. <P>He says I'll be there as soon as possible. She says "please hurry because it's starting to rain and the top is down"<P>[censored] from Texas
[censored],<P>Howdy from WV! LOL<P>We tease Murph about being a dumb blonde, so he's just joking about not getting your jokes!
<P>It's addicting isn't it?? Seeing who's going to get the 1000th post!!
<P>Mitzi
Mitzi<P>Thanks for enlightening me concerning Murph, I really didn't think he was attacking me and that I shouldn't take it personally.<P>Yet...it's getting closer!<P>[censored] from Texas
Just stopped by to see how ya'lls quest for the 1000th post is going. Gotta admire your dedication!!!<P>Have a great holiday weekend, all!<P>Kathi
Where did everyone go?<P>[censored] from Texas
[censored],<P>I'm popping in and out. Trying to get some housework done and get ready for work at the same time. I think me,you and Kam have been the only ones here this morning. It'll pick up after I leave for work. That's why I miss most of the party!
<P>Mitzi
Well, looks like I'm gonna miss #1000

SD,<BR> The GOOD STUFF is on all the pages.You'll just have to start from the beginning!
<P> --Murph<p>[This message has been edited by Murphy (edited June 29, 2000).]
Just poking my head in. <P>I wouldn't want this thread to get to 1000 posts and miss out on my opportunity to have made a contribution to the cause. I just hate when I miss out on things...
I was here in the beginning, and I will be here at the end... count me in!
YOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!<P>Mitzi
Hey,Red,<BR> Just got back from the beach,and some grocery shopping.What's new?<P> --Murph
Murph/H&S,<P>Not a whole lot. Still rainy and cold here!
I'm ready for some of that 90 degree weather! LOL<P>I was beginning to think everyone left!<P>Red
Jodie/Red(TSHO),<BR> I think a lot of people go to bed earlier than we do.Right now it's 10:30 here,and Daisy,and Lora are probably ZZZZZZ.I just got back from a long walk on the beach,so I'm still awake.Still pretty nice here,but supposed to cloud up a little tomorrow.<P> --Murph/BeachBum
Murph,<P>Oh hell, I know a lot of people go to bed earlier than I do! LOL It's 1:30am here and I'll probably be up for another 2 hours or so. In the meantime, I doing laundry and some housework. Kids aren't up to tear stuff out as soon as I put it away! LOL
<P>Red
Red,<BR> You really are a night owl.I was like that when I worked on swingshift.I just couldn't go to sleep after getting off work.Usually stopped and bought a sandwich,and watched a late movie.<BR> There was a beautiful sunset tonight,but I just heard on the news that it could rain all weekend.Gonna be some unhappy campers out there.
<P> --Murph/BB
Murph/BB,<P>I've always been a night owl. Even when I have to get up early, I stay up half of the night. I'm a person who only requires about 4 hours of sleep. Sometimes I get 6 but usually not.<P>We actually had a 20 minute thunderstorm this evening. YUKKY! I hate thunder and lightning! I'm a big chicken!<P>Red
Red,<BR> That must be nice to need so little sleep.But then,I guess when you just sit around,eating Bon-Bons,and looking at Web TV.......
<BR> We get a few good lightning storms around here in the winter.I usually turn all the lights out,and watch it out my big picture window.But sometimes,it gets a little too close...KA-BOOM!!
Then it gets a little scary!<P> --Murph<BR>
Murph, <P>And don't forget, I take care of 3 boys until time to go to work, then work for 8 hours taking care of 2 boys. THEN I get to sit around and eat bon-bons and look at web tv! LOL LOL <P>This weekend one of the boys that I work with may be staying with me. The other one is going to his parents for the weekend and Mark doesn't want to be there by himself. It should be an interesting weekend! LOL<P>I must be a BIG chicken. I hate heights, thunderstorms, deep water, spiders, and flying. Maybe I need therapy!
<P>RED
Red,<BR> Settle down,I was only teasing!I get to bum around as much as I want,so I guess I can't talk.
<BR> I think most people are afraid of some things,even if they don't say.I,too,have fear of heights.But I have some inner-ear damage,so that probably is the cause of it.Just get real dizzy only when I look down from high up.I still have to scale the ladder to clean the gutters,though.<BR> Sometimes,large crowds,confining spaces,and too much noise bothers me,too,so you're not alone.<BR> By the way,did you happen to notice that big,brown,hairy spider crawling up your leg?<P> --Murph
<BR>
Murph,<P>EEEEKKKKK!!!! LOL<P>I'm not fond of large crowds either. I'd rather be in a confined space, that way not many other people can be there! LOL<P>My fear of heights is really bad. I have a helluva time standing on a chair! Now that's bad! And I've noticed that it's gotten worse as I get older. My kids laugh at me for it too. They aren't afraid of anything but snakes! LOL<P>Red
Red,<BR> Did you fall for that?
<BR> As we age,our equilibrium is'nt as good as when we are younger,so heights bother us more.That's what my doc told me,anyway.I remember when I was a kid(just barely),ferriswheels,and such never bothered me.You'll never get me on one now!I'll go up on the Space Needle,but at least it ain't movin'!<P> --Murph
Murph,<P>No space needle for this chick!! WAAAAY to high! LOL <P>I guess our equilibrium is kinda like everything else. It goes to hell as we get older. That sucks! <P>Red
Red,<BR> Oh No,you have to go up the Needle if you come to Seattle,it's a requirement.It's OK as long as you don't look down.At 605'high,the people down there look like ants! The outside elevator is a little scary,though...
<P> Well,I'll have to leave the big post to someone else,I'm falling asleep at the desk here.Gotta be back up in 5 hours;bad as you,huh? One more day,then four off!<BR> <BR> You have a good night(what's left of it),and I'll talk to you later.<BR> 'Night,Mitz/Jodie/Red
<P> --Murph/Sleepy
OMG!!!! Only 12 more to go!!!!!!
<P>Murph,<BR>Y'all can keep your space needle! I believe I would either hyperventilate or have a heart attack! No kidding, either! <BR>Have a great day!<BR>Red/Jodie/Mitz

So who will be the lucky winner... the 1000th post?<BR>

This is too cool! I think we should shoot for 2000! LOL LOL<P>Or we could start a new thread. What do you all think??<P>Red
By golly!!!<P>If I didn't have to actually look like I do any work here all day, I coul have won that prize. I had to skip the last ten days of posts 'cause the boss kept walking by.<P>RrunRR<BR>
Jodie/Red,<BR> I really thought you would get that post.Well,as usual,the man wins again.<P> So,the Space Needle's out,I guess.But you could go to the new Boeing Imax theatre.They have neat 3-D movies on a giant screen.Movies where you fly over the Grand Canyon,jump out of planes,things like that.......
<P> RrunRR,<BR> Just do what I do.When the boss walks by,say:"What are you lookin'at??You got a problem???" <BR> <P> ~~Murph/Freefor4
<BR> <BR> <BR>
Murph,<BR>If I hadn't had to work from 10am to 11pm, I would have gotten that post. [censored] wouldn't have stood a chance!
<P>The 3-D stuff would be just as bad as the real thing. I think I'll stick to camping! LOL LOL It's closer to the ground! LOL<P>BTW, my boss is my neighbor and has been since I was little. I think I could get away with asking him what his problem is! LOL<P>Red
Hey Red,<BR> How's that dye job holding up?
<BR> Where do you camp at in W VA? Do you have a lot of state parks?<BR> I'm thinking of going down along the WA/ORE border along the Columbia River.They have some nice places to camp,and pretty nice scenary.I have a conversion van I can sleep in,so I guess you can't call that real camping.<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<BR>The hairs still red. Still looking pretty good. <P>The South Branch of the potomac River runs thru here so there are a lot of camp grounds along the river. Also you can rent lots for the summer. And we do have a lot of state parks and lakes that have camping areas.<P>It's not real camping unless you pitch a tent, build a fire to cook over, and are stiff and sore after a few days of sleeping with a rock under your back! LOL
<P>Red
Red,<BR> You can rent lots for the summer? That's cool.Here you have to reserve ahead for a few days,or pray one will be open when you show up. I'm movin' over there!
<BR> I still have a nice tent that we used up until a few years ago.Stbx didn't want to sleep in a tent anymore.I suppose I could dust it off.<BR> At my age,my back is sore after sleeping in my own bed!
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>In case you didn't notice, this chick fell asleep early last night! LOL LOL<P>I guess the lack of sleep caught up with me a little. I actually slept for 6 whole hours last night! <P>I must be getting old too cause sleeping on the ground for a few nights kills me! I'm sore for at least a week afterwards. BUT, it's one of the sacrafices I make since I'm not fortunate enough to have a camper or a van! LOL<P>Have a good day everyone!<P>Mitz/Jodie/Red
Jodie/RHG,<BR> I did notice that you probably fell asleep.That's OK,I was right behind you.<BR> Did you have an action-packed day?It was cloudy this morning,but the sun came out around noon.I went to one of our zoos,and took in a food festival nearby.I sampled some different foods,then had strawberry shortcake.Gotta love that strawberry shortcake!!!
<P> ~~Murph/SSL
<BR>
Murph,<P>Action-packed?? You bet! One of the boys that I work with is spending the night. I took them to breakfast, went to the mall, and went swimming for a while at my mom's. They are now trying to see how aggravated I can get! LOL He's 21 and acts about 8.<P>So much for a peacful weekend! LOL<P>Red/Jodie/Mitz
Good Afernoon to All<P>First of all, I didn't mean to 'hog' the show friday afternoon as we neared the big 1k.<P>It just seems as though everyone else had deserted or fallen asleep.<P>When we got down to the final 4 and then #999 I honestly thought everyone would be rushing to post the 1,000th<P>But, if you will look at the time gaps between posts on friday...you will see I tried to give someone else a chance to be the 1,000th poster.<P>Oh well....anyway....<P>MURPH<P>Don't know if I can make it to Seattle anytime soon, so how about just "faxing" me the ice cream bars..ha!<P>By the way, by all your late night and early a.m. postings to Mitzi it looks like you were truly "Sleepless in Seattle" (ha! ha!)<BR>Mitzi and all!<P>I propose we keep this thread alive and shoot for 2,000 // What does everyone else think?<P>The big question is....can a guy from Seattle who doesn't understand blonde jokes find happiness with a soft spoken country girl from West Virginia?<P>On the lighter side....giving you all a break from blonde jokes...since I live in Texas, there is a tremendous rivalry between Texas and Oklahoma.<P>Both states are always fighting for 'bragging rights'<P>A millionare banker from Oklahoma challenged a millionare oil tycoon from Texas and said:<BR>"I own enough gold to build a solid wall 6' high around the entire state of Texas".<P>The Texan thought for a moment and then replied..."If I like it, I'll buy it"<P>I want to wish everyone here a wonderful and "SAFE" 4th of July.<P>Let's get everyone's vote/input about trying for 2,000<P>[censored] from Texas<p>[This message has been edited by [censored] (edited July 02, 2000).]
MURPH<P>From all your late night and early a.m. postings to Mitzi, it looks like you were truly...'Sleepless in Seattle'.<P>Ha! Ha!<P>[censored] from Texas
Hey D from T,<P>No problem at all with you winning the prize!
Just send me a few ice cream bars! LOL LOL<P>I want to shoot for 2000, if for no other reason just to see if MB can handle it! LOL LOL<P>I'm not too sure about the soft-spoken bit! LOL Yep, I'm a country girl and I'm from WV but I'm not too soft-spoken anymore. I was but now I speak my mind a lot more. (I now have the freedom to do so). <P>2000 here we come! LOL LOL<P>Mitz
[censored],<P>Murph's the only one who'll stay up late enough! LOL LOL All the others go to bed early. I don't get off work until 11pm EST and I hardly ever go to bed early. He keeps me company! LOL LOL<P>Mitzi
Hey Mitzi!<P>Tell you what....to save myself some postage, I'll have Murph 'fax' you one of the ice cream bars..<P>Mitzi...what is your story? Don't know if I am familiar with it (relating to marriage & divorce).<P>I'm with you.....if MB doesn't shut us down or blow up first; let's shoot for 2,000<P>Have a wonderful holiday!<P>D from T
[censored],<P>Mine is a long story! I've been married since 1989. Have 3 boys. My H started having an affair sometime last fall and left Dec. 23rd. Our divorce isn't final yet, but should be soon. <P>I'm glad I'm getting divorced. Don't get me wrong, I believe in marriage and the vows I took but my H didn't. He started being physically abusive 2 months after we got married (when I was 8 months pregnant) The only things he never did were break a bone or put me in the hospital. I have a couple of permanent injuries to my shoulder, back and leg because of it though. A textbook example of a battered wife!<P>For the first 2 1/2 months, I wanted him home. I just didn't know how to live without him and didn't think of my marriage as abnormal. After quite a bit of soul-searching and reading here at MB, I found out my marriage was anything but normal. I wasn't loved, honored or cherished. I was controlled. I look back now and wonder why I stayed but I guess there must have been a reason for it. I did get three beautiful sons from him. <P>I filed for divorce in March and we've had a hearing to determine child custody and support. Now we've reached a tentative financial agreement that I will sign just to get it over with. I someday want a real life and marriage. <P>I am doing so much better since he left. I'm doing financially better (I don't have to have beer money for him. He's an alcoholic) and I can pay all my bills. I even have money left over. I'm even stronger than before. Sure I went thru the depression, but I have mostly good days now. I have a job that I love ( my first job ever). And I don't regret anything that's happened so far. I'm one of the few that is better off without my spouse.<P>Mitzi
[censored],<BR> Ice cream bars have been faxed.Let me know when you get them.<BR> I DO understand blond jokes.It's just that you keep forgetting to put in the punchline!
<BR> Mitz may be a soft-spoken country girl,but you better duck when she starts throwing those glasses at you!!!
<P> Hey Jodie/Red,<BR> [censored] and I were just talking about you.How are you doing? Keeping those kids in line?<BR> It's been pretty nice out today,but now it looks like it's going to dump.That's OK,I'm ready for a nap anyway.Supposed to rain on the Fourth,how about your area?<P> ~~Murph/Sleepless<BR>
Murph,<P>Ok now! No need for the comment about the glasses! LOL I'm really not violent! I just had to do it! LOL<P>I kept the kids in line pretty good. Mark went home at noon. Then me and the boys went to a friends for a birthday party. Anything to get out of housework! LOL LOL<P>I have no idea what the weather is gonna be like for the fourth. Hopefully it's not so bad that they can't do the fireworks. <P>Mitz/Jodie/Red
RHG,<BR> Sorry,I couldn't resist.I just thought things like that only happened on Jerry Springer.
<BR> It's raining here now.Supposed to rain through Tues.,then be nice and hot on Wed.Go figure.<BR> I went to an old-time heritage festival today,complete with mountain men,and totem pole carving.Lots of food.<BR>I've slacked off on my house-cleaning,too.I was hoping I could pay Lora to come over and do it.(Lora,are you there?)<BR> Just taking it easy tonight,how about you?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Gee, now I could be on Jerry Srpinger! What next?
<P>I'm not doing anything tonight. I'm being completely lazy. I think Lora is completely ignoring us so she can't get volunteered to do anything else!
<P>My youngest is asleep on the couch and the other 2 are on their way to bed really soon! LOL I need some quiet time! LOL<P>Mitz/Red/Jodie
Jodie,<BR> I guess you fiqured out what RHG stands for?
<BR> <BR> You know,if Lora doesn't start responding to me,I'm going to be really,really mad at her.We're practically neighbors!<BR> <BR> So,when's your next big camping trip?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Actually, no, I hadn't figured out RHG yet. I've been trying to think about it. Does it mean Red Haired Girl?? LOL<P>Who knows when I'll get to go camping again. My sister and her husband want us to go to a lake that is only about 2 hour away one weekend. We just haven't figured out when. Wanna loan out your van??
<P>Jodie/Mitz/Red
Red Haired Goddess,<BR> A camping trip on a lake sounds nice about now.Can you bring your WebTV?<BR> <BR>Sure,come over and pick my van up.I'll exchange it for a couple good backrubs!It's been a while...By the way,some clown almost broadsided it on the freeway today.How could he not see me?I was like a house next to him!<BR> I bet you don't have much traffic in W VA,huh?<P> ~~Murph
RHG,<BR> Four whole stoplights,and I'll bet they all turn red at the same time.We have a few small towns like that in WA.Were you born there?<BR> <BR> While you have my van,would you mind changing the oil?And the transmission fluid and filter,brake pads,air filter,antifreeze?Don't forget to lube the front end,and it'll take two coats of wax......<P> By the way,what's your horse's name?<P> ~~Murph
Jodie,<BR> Yep,you sound like a hometown girl.<BR> But where would you move to?You know what they say,no matter where you go,there you are.Avoid the big cities,too stressful!

Yep, I knew that double post would get your attention. LOL
It couldn't have possibly been because *I* clicked the mouse twice! <P>Believe me I am trying hard not to let him screw with my head. I guess it is hard not getting screwed by a screwball, huh?

I thought I could just close my eyes for a few minutes and no one would notice. It ended up being for a few hours!
I've just been whipped lately. Can't seem to make it past 1:30 or 2 am. I guess I need the beauty rest!
<P>The cows have names...Hamburger, roast, Steak, Ribs....LOL LOL LOL LOL Yep, we butcher some of them! I have about 600 lbs of beef in a freezer in my basement right now! Soooo...if we ever have that MB convention, I can supply the beef!
<P>I have no idea where I would move to. I have family all over the US. So someone would always be close by. It would be hard moving somewhere that I didn't know anyone. Especially since it would just be me and the boys. Who knows?!<P>Red/Jodie/Mitz
I have a technical question. This thread has gotten so long that all the page numbers don't show up on the thread itself. So, how do you get from page 38 to 39 or so on?
Good Morning!<P>Well, here goes #1,038 only 962 more to go to hit 2,000<P>Hey..what did everyone decide to do? Do we try for 2,000 or close this down and start anew?<P>Mitzi<P>Thanks for sharing your story in a quick overview...you sound like you are on the road to recovery! <P>By the way, did you read my thread on this same board about dating in which I share my story?<P>Murph<P>Can you endure another 962 posts? Yawn....yawn...zzzzzzzzzzz<P>Ok.....I can't resist:<P>A redhead is out walking one day in the country and comes upon a herd of sheep. She gets real excited and tells the sheep herder she has always wanted to own a pet sheep.<P>She asked him if she could guess how many sheep were in the herd, could she have one.<P>He remarked "That's impossible, but if you can guess the exact number, I will give you one".<P>She does a quick count and tells him there are 283 sheep. "That's amazing,you are right" exclaimed the sheep herder. He then tells her to pick one out.<P>After she picks one out and begins walking down the road, the sheep herder calls after her and says "Say Miss, if I can tell you what color your hair was before you dyed it, can I have my dog back?"<P>[censored] from Texas

[censored],<P>Once you start, you just can't stop! LOL<P>So, now we're onto redhead jokes! That's ok, mine came from a bottle! My natural hair color is light brown. <P>I guess we're keeping this thread going. At least until others give an opinion!
<P>Murph,<BR>I'll trade you some steaks for some ice cream! LOL<P>Can you pack the popcorn so it won't be stale when it gets here? What movie are you gonna go see?<P>I think we're gonna get thunderstorms today. It's starting to get dark outside. YUK!!<P>Jodie the Redheaded Goddess
JRHG,<BR> I'm not sure.Maybe MI2 with Tom Cruise.Or there's Mel's or George's new movies.Since I'm a combination of all three,it's hard to decide.
<BR> Do you have a movie theatre in Keyser?Are they showing the new movies,or still playing Die Hard 2?
<BR> Still yucky out here-
<P> [censored],<BR> Let me guess,she was a brunette,right?<P> ~~Murph/TomMelGeorge
Mitzi<P>Actually that wasn't a redhead joke, it was a "blonde" joke<P>I will be off on the 4th so I won't be posting til Wednesday the 5th......<P>You'll have a safe and wonderful 4th<P>D from T
TMG,<P>Nope, no movie theater here!
But we do have one about 30 minutes away in Cumberland, MD. That's the one we go to. A friend of mine took the boys to see Rocky and Bullwinkle yesterday. My cousin saw The Patriot and loved it. She said to make sure you have tissues! LOL <P>BTW, the theater in Cumberland shows new movies. It's an AMC theater, so there!
<P>JRHG/Mitz
Murph<P>Don't know if you are a Seattle Seahawks fan or not but do you remember the slam they got a few years ago around the time of the O.J. Simpson trial?<P>I guess they were really struggling at the time because this was the joke I heard:<P>"They want to hold the O.J. Simpson trial in a major city that doesn't have a Professional football team so they are thinking about holding it in Seattle"<P>Anyway....that was low blow to Seattle; just curious if you remember hearing that?<P>You have yourself a wonderful 4th!<P>[censored] from Texas<P>
D from T,<P>I know, you weren't making fun of me! (Just making fun of blonde Murph! LOL LOL)<P>Have a safe holiday and maybe when you get back, we'll have made at least 1500 posts! (Yeah right! LOL)<P>Happy Fourth!<P>Mitzi
[censored],<BR> I do remember that joke about O.J.<BR> We were in LA in '96.Drove past his house,and all the ones around it were for sale.I heard somebody was going to bulldoze it down and build a new house.<BR> You better work on those jokes.<BR> Have a great Fourth.
<P> J-RHG,<BR> We have so many theatres here,it's ridiculous.I don't know how they all stay in business.Now they're talking about building a couple more multiplexes.The one I go to by work has 17 theatres.A few times there were only 10 people or so in there.Nice if you don't like crowds.
I'm off to do some shopping.-$$$<P> ~~Murph/TMG
Murph/TMG,<P>You're going to spend money and I'm going to make money! LOL The theater in Cumberland has 6 showing at one time. Pretty big deal for this area! LOL <P>Well, I'm off to work. <P>Have a good day! <P>JHG
Take me out to the ball game...etc. The boss gave me four tickets to the local A-ball team, I e-mailed those I thought would like to go, and NO response.<P>Anyone care to join me? These are the seats where they come to YOU and take your consession order.<P>Just meet me at gate 6, take the MAX since parking is crappy (ie. non-existant).<P>me.<BR>
Hey me!<P>Shoot I missed the game! If it gets me out of the house for a little while, I'm up for anything! LOL <P>Hey Murph,<BR>What movie did you end up seeing?? <P>Jodie the redheaded Goddess/Mitz
RHG,<BR> I got sidetracked while shopping.Missed the film time I wanted to go to.I'm going to try for first show tomorrow.<BR> How was your day?The sun came out for a little while,then it started raining.Are you going to see any fireworks on the Fourth,or do you shoot your own off?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Here I thought you were gonna be able to give me the scoop on The Patriot! LOL<P>It was nice this morning but rained this evening. I'm beginning to think I'm in WA!!
<P>The local fire dept. sets off fireworks in town every year. Since I'll be in town for work, I'll just watch them there. My SIL is bringing the boys in so they can watch with me.<P>How bout you?<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> There's quite a few different places to watch them.The biggest shows are downtown Seattle,but it gets pretty crowded,and jammed up with traffic.There's a lake a few miles from here I'll probably go to.<BR> Maybe we'll both get some nice weather soon.<BR>I'm ready for summer.
<P> ~~Murph/Beachbum
Jodie,<BR> 75'-80' is just about right.I like that slight breeze,too.<BR> I just read that post.Like I said before,you are a person of great compassion to be able to work with those people.I think it's a real gift,a lot of people couldn't do it!My stbx could learn a lot from you.She was generally critical of us normal folks.I'm pretty laid-back,and I think she took advantage of that(big city women!).Guess I should of married someone more like you!
<P> ~~Murph/BB<BR>
Murph,<P>Yep, maybe you shoulda married a farm girl! LOL<P>I'm a very patient person. I don't get aggravated easily. I've always been that way and having kids makes you either patient or insane! LOL<P>Mitz/Jodie
Jodie,<BR> I don't know how my sis does it.She was divorced when her two kids were very young.Then her D developed scleraderma,which is deadly for kids.So between that,trying to maintain attendance at Boeing,fighting with her XH,and keeping her house up,it's been a real battle.Her kids are turning out pretty good,though.Hitting highschool now,I worry about them getting into bad influence.<P> You know any cute,young farm girls?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Cute, young farm girls??? Hmmmm, how young? <P>It's hard as hell trying to be everything to your kids. I'm mom and dad to them. I work 40+ hours a week, plus TRY to keep up with all the housework and laundry. And this fall, my oldest starts a different school. It's going to be very hectic! I'll manage somehow.<P>Mitz/Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Oh,somewhere around 18-20.I thought I'd start from scratch!
<P> Maybe you can get someone to help with housework(where are you,Lora?).<BR> I almost feel guilty here.All I have to do is take care of myself.I'd send the Yard God over to help out if you weren't sooooo far away!
<BR> Ever eat those chocolate-covered coffee beans? They'll get you moving!<P> ~~Murph/YG
Murph/YG,<P>At least you chose an age that was legal! LOL LOL<P>Nope, never had chcolate-covered coffee beans. Don't drink coffee either. Diet Pepsi is a staple in my house! LOL LOL<P>I guess I'm gonna have to find me a Yard God and a House God! LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> You mean in those farm states there is a legal age?
<P> You don't drink coffee? No wonder you're not angry and aggressive like all these Seattle drivers! Too much coffee!<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>HA HA HA!! I think in WV the legal age of consent is 16 but you have to be 18 to get married without parents permission. You can have sex but don't even think about getting married! Go figure! <P>Can't stand the taste of coffee although I love French Vanilla Cappuccino. <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Sex without marriage? Well,there seems to be a lot of that going on anyway.Don't we know!<BR> <BR> Yeah,I prefer the Cappuchino's and Mocha's over plain coffee,too.Unless I'm falling asleep at work,then I grab some of the area man's jetfuel.You have to drink it fast,before it eats through the cup!<P> ~~Murph
Well,looks like Jodie fell asleep on me again.I guess it is getting late.<BR> <BR> I'm going to go play with my Showermassager,then hit the hay.....<P> 'Night,Jodie<P> ~~Murph
Hey you guys,<P>I have watched this thread get bigger and bigger and bigger - it's just huge.......<P>Is this the record, surely it would have to be.<P>I wanted to see a movie this weekend just gone, somehow ended up buying stockings instead!!!! Don't quite know how that one worked. Maybe it's leftover from my post about where I had done my feet, had socks on, big comfy knickers and no make-up. Of course, that was the night my very glamorous girlfriend called in!!!!!! sigh sigh sigh.<BR>I finally take time out for me, the babies have been sedated and are asleep, so I have a bath (which always leaves me with a red face, like those people that drink too much!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and that's how others see me. Oh well, what is a girl to do. <BR>Next time, I'll put a note on my door saying "Beautification in Progress - Enter at own Risk"<P>God that post made us laugh. I could not believe I posted all that, to people that even though I feel I know them, I don't really, still makes me giggle now.<BR>I think that was where the bath bombs started too.....<P>Mitzi, I need to talk to you.<BR>I'm just about to go back to work full-time. I'll be doing shift work and even tho I have most of the logistics worked out, ie, childcare, it is still scaring the 'whatevers' out of me. I know I'll muddle my way through, and I have the most fantastic supportive family, but doing it on my own is a bit daunting when I take a minute to think about it.<BR>Anyway, can we talk later. It's about 10 pm here now, and I haven't slept much for the past 3 nights. I desparately need a good night's sleep.<P>love and hugs to you guys<P>Jo
OK I guess my insomnia is cured! LOL
Now I'm gonna go thru one of those sleep all the time phases I guess.<P>Sorry for falling asleep on ya Murph. You're not boring! HONEST!! <P>Jo, <BR>Sure we can talk! You can email me if you want. Hell, anyone can!! I think instead of being addicted to the internet, I'm just addicted to email! LOL LOL LOL<P>Hugs to you all!<BR>Mitzi/Jodie
<P>mitzihartman@webtv.net
Hi Everyone!! <P>HAPPY 4th OF JULY!!!!!!!!!<P>Have a great day!!<P>Mitzi
Jodie,<BR> Yep,women falling asleep on me,no matter what we're doing! Story of my life...
<BR> At least I cured you of your insomnia!
<P> I'm gonna get the van ready for you,when do you want to drive over and pick it up???<P> Have a great Fourth!
<P> ~~Murph/Sandman
Murph/Sandman,<P>No, honestly it wasn't you that put me to sleep! I've noticed that when I've went to work the past few days that I've gotten really tired. We found out today that there is a gas leak in the house. I think that may have had something to do with it. I'm wide awake now! LOL LOL LOL<P>But now everyone is probably out watching fireworks. I just got home from work. Our fireworks weren't half bad this year.
<P>HAppy 4th,<BR>Mitzi/Jodie
Jodie,<BR> A gas leak? I hope you don't smoke in the house.You could of had your own Fourth right there at home!!
<P> I feel better now about not boring you to sleep.
<P> ~~Murph
Hey Murph,<P>How were the fireworks?? <P>Yep, a gas leak! Scary, huh? <P>I crashed early last night. Now I'm up early!
I need to get back on my other sleep schedule. LOL <P>Have a good day!<BR>Jodie
Gosh, I'm absent for a couple days and you guys go ahead and post 1K without me, whaaaaaa!<P>1071 ...!!!!!!!<P>OMG this is phenominal! You guys are real diehards.<P>M & M ... How you both been?<P>Jo
Jo,<P>I was wondering where you went to! <P>Nope we're not letting this thread die! We're shooting for 2K but me and Murph are doing all the work. We did have some help from [censored], too.<P>I'm getting ready for work now, but I'll be back tonight! <P>Mitzi
Just wanted to drop in and say hi to all!<P>I trust everyone had a 'safe' and 'sober' 4th.<P>Looks like this thread has narrowed down to basically Murph/Mitzi so it might be awhile before we hit 2,000<P>I'm afraid I will run out of jokes long before then (which will probably make Murph happy)....ha!<P>[censored] from Texas
Hey D from T,<P>Yes, I had a very safe and sober holiday! I worked! LOL<P>Stick around and be part of the 2K. It seems like once we hit 1000 everyone left!
<P>No jokes needed, just conversation!
<P>Mitzi
Mitzi<P>You're right....seems like when we hit the big 1k...everyone left!<P>Gonna take alot of conversations/posts for you, Murph and I to hit 2k<P>Mitzi, you talk about going to work late in the day and getting off at 11:00 pm - what kind of work do you do (if it isn't a personal question?)<P>Have you considered a trip to Seattle to meet Murph or has he considered a trip to W.V. to meet you?<P>Anyway.....just thought I'd punch in another one towards 2,000<P>D from T
Jodie,<BR> How was your 4th? Got that gas leak all fixed?I went down to the beach last night,and watched several shows going off across the Sound.After I came home it was like a warzone here until about 1AM.Back to work today.
But only 3 days this week.
<P> Daisy, <BR> Where you been?I see you,Gina,Butterfly and Lora all ducked out on us!The nerve!At least [censored] is still around with his strange jokes.
<P> [censored],<BR> Shhhhhh!Be careful.I got Mitz believing I look like Mel/Tom/George.She's got me believing she looks like a red-haired Jodie Foster/THO.
<BR> <BR> Just where is Dana with those pix???<P> ~~Murph
<P>
[censored],<P>No, the question about my job isn't too personal. I work in an assisted living home for mentally retarded adults. We help them rent places to live and try to help them with normal day-to-day things. Some of them may be able to eventually live on their own. I'm a house manager in a home that 2 men live in. They are 37 and 21 years old. And I really love it too!
<P>So, what are you doing? Trying to play matchmaker??
<P>Murph,<BR>You mean you don't look like any of those guys??
<BR>Yep, got the gas leak taken care of. My 4th was good. The fireworks here were pretty good this year. <P>Dana, <BR>Hurry up with the pictures before Murph has a hissy fit! LOL <P>Jodie/Mitz
<P>
Jodie,<BR> A hissy fit??<BR> Is that anything like a hussy fit?<BR> <BR> I think we should designate [censored] as the official MB Matchmaker.What do you think? <BR> <BR> Well,it's pretty quiet here tonight,no cruise missles hitting the ground.I guess the 4th is over for another year.
<P> ~~Murph/Sleepy<P>
I'm BAAAAAAAAACCCKKKKKKK!!!!!!<P><B>[censored]</B>! Congratulations on # 1000!!!!!!<P>Everyone else.... sorry, it's almost 1 am, I just got home (suitcase is still on the porch), and I'm going to bed. I'll read all I missed tomorrow. I just had to find out who got 1000.<P>See ya'll tomorrow!<P>Smooches,<BR>A very tired Busty Butterfly!
<P>
Murph,<P>A hissy fit is a small temper tantrum!<P>When I was at work last night, there were still alot of people with fireworks and firecrackers. I guess they forgot to look at the calendar! LOL <P>[censored]'s trying to get the job as matchmaker, isn't he? LOL<P>Butterfly,<BR>Hey! Now we have someone else to help us get to 2K!! At the rate we were going, it's gonna take a while! LOL<P>Have a good day everyone!!<BR>Jodie
Hey Busty!,<BR> Welcome back.How was your holiday?<P> Jodie,<BR> I noticed it's been about a month since you started this thread.Must be a new record.<BR> Hey,do you think [censored] would spring for the airfare so all these people from different states can meet? <BR> Looks like another nice day.
<P> ~~Murph/LazyBBum
Murph,<P>Hey Bum! LOL LOL LOL<P>A whole month??? It honestly didn't seem like that long to me. It definately has to be a record! Should we call Guiness?? LOL
<P>We'll have to ask [censored] about the airfare. I don't know if he'll go along with it or not.
<P>It's supposed to be nice here today, too. Not too hot, not too cool, but just right!!
<P>Have a good day!<BR>Jodie
Hey Murph,<P>I've never met or spoken to [censored] from Texas, but do you think he'd spring for an airfare from here????????<BR>Qantas fly daily, even twice a day from the big smoke....<BR>We fondly refer to Brisbane as Brisvegas...<BR>it's a happenin' place.......<P>Every night I say I'm going to bed early, and end up here at MB, chatting away like I can sleep all the next day.... I must be mad. But it's so much fun, and I get so much out of it.<P>how are you doing?<BR>hugs to you and Mitzi.<P>Jo<BR>
Jo,<P>Hey chickie! How ya doin"? <P>If you notice the time of most of the posts here, we're a couple of night owls too! LOL But since I'm on the east coast and most of the others are on the west coast, I'm the one losing the most sleep!! LOL LOL LOL I have been going to bed fairly early the past few nights though. <P>Ya gotta watch out for Murph. If you stick around here, he'll start volunteering you to do jobs for everyone else!
Now he's gonna start on [censored] about the airfare. Lora's supposed to split firewood for him, plus clean house and do yardwork! LOL LOL<P>Hugs to you too!<BR>Mitz/AKA Jodie Foster
Hey Mitzi, <P>I didn't get the Jodie bit. I thought that was your real name or something. Now I know. <P>Folks are dumb where I cum frum......!!!!!!!!<P>I'd be happy to volunteer for something that I'm good at, now let me see......ummmmmm.....<P>I'll have to think about that one.<P>The day I've had today, I feel as though I'm good at a big fat nothing. I was in such a strange mood all day, not PMT, not angry, not sad, just off. Very strange.<P>I am good at cooking, I enjoy it. I love doing dinner parties, although I don't know that I would serve bath bombs, as Medic does. I think I need to move back in with him, and take over the cooking. He seems to have gone downhill since I left!!!!<BR>Where is he anyway.? Haven't seen a post from him for ages.<P>I really really really have to go now. I've been saying that for the last hour. I flick betw. here and GQ.<BR>My eyes are falling out of my head, good for an interview. I have my second tomorrow. I'm going for a purser with an airline, which is what I used to do in a previous life.!!!!!<BR>Anyway, night night, and you have a good day<P>love and hugs<P>Jo<P>
Jo,<P>Since you mentioned Medic, he'll probably pop in soon! I know he's lurking but usually won't say anything unless we talk about him! LOL LOL<P>YOU can come over and cook for all of us!! Whenever we have that MB convention, you're in charge of the food! LOL <P>Good luck at the interview! And get some sleep! LOL<P>Hugs,<BR>Mitzi/Jodie
Good Morning to All!<P>Butterfly....<P>WELCOME BACK! Good to hear from you again. Like Mitzi said...it's good to have you back as we seek to hit # 2,000 (which could be a long, drawn out process)<P>How was your trip?<P>Mitzi<P>Thanks for sharing what you do....no; I am not trying to play 'matchmaker'...just curious how serious you/Murph were about meeting.<P>Figured if you 2 did meet and........ it make make a good story line to a Sequel to Sleepless in Seattle.<P>Murph<P>Now you've got everyone wondering if I am going to 'spring' for airline tickets..thanks alot my friend! (ha!)<P>Because of that, plus referring to me as the one with 'strange' jokes....here's one just for Murph:<P>This blonde was seated in the First Class Section of a flight to Hawaii. When the stewardess checked her ticket, she saw the blonde only held an economy fare.<P>Politely she asked the blonde to please return to the economy section, but the blonde refused and said "I'm blonde and I am going to Hawaii".<P>Well, the stewardess got frustrated so she went and got the Co-Pilot. The co-pilot, upon looking at her ticket also asked her to move back to the economy section.<P>The blonde refused to move again and firmly replied "I'm blonde and I'm going to Hawaii".<P>Finally, the Captain came back to see if he could straighten out the confusion. He bent over and whispered into the blonde's ear after which she quickly picked up her stuff and returned to the economy section.<P>Totally puzzled by this, the stewardess asked the Captain what he said to get her to move.<P>The Captain replied "Oh, I just told her this part of the plane isn't going to Hawaii".<P>Just for you Murph!<P>[censored] from Texas
Unbloody Believable! D from T got the 1K Post!!!<P>BIG Congrats D from T! You're the man.<P>How were the faxed ice cream bars, a little flat??? Baaa ha ha ha ha ha!<P>Sure miss you guys, been workin my tush off.<P>Still PATIENTLY waiting on those pix from both Murph and Mitz.<P>Hey, does Lora install fireplace inserts too? I'm buying my neighbor's (potato gun guy) and need it installed before the winter. YO ... Lora?<P>Then you can deliver the wood from those trees you cut down a couple week-ends ago, Murph. Please chop em' kinda small so I can carry alot into the house in one trip.<P>Thanks in advance best buddies!<P>Jo
Resilient/Jo<P>Howdy!<P>Thanks for jumping in and helping us towards the quest to reach 2k<P>Unfortunately the ice cream bars that Murph 'faxed' me from Seattle melted before I could take one bite.<P>D from T
Here's my feeble step toward 2k:<P>Adam was all alone in the Garden of Eden, and spoke to God about supplying him with a companion. God said he would supply him with a woman, who would be at his beck and call, would do what ever he said, and would not whine or complain.<P>Adam asked what all this would cost.<BR>God answered, only an arm and a leg.<P>Adam asked what you could get for a rib?<P>

Murph<P>Hey! Now you can poke fun @ RWD (Bob) for his jokes.]<P>I promise I didn't tell him that Adam/Eve joke (tho' I have heard it before).<P>RWD (Bob)<P>Welcome to this thread....you are welcome to help us march towards the big 2K<P>[censored] from Texas<P>P.S.<P>RWD...thanks for your post to me about Jesus loving those that divorce.
Hola and Welcome RWD,<P>Post your heart out on this MEGA thread. Mitz and Murph are our hosts, and there's plenty of fun and good food (mostly junk food).<P>Chin Chin,<P>Jo
bonnet/Jo(not to be confused with Daisy),<BR> I hope your interview went well.<BR> Guess what? [censored] e-mailed me,and said he'd spring for the airfare for me to come see you in Australia. What a guy,huh? <P> Daisy,<BR> I'm pretty sure Lora does inserts,too.As soon as she's done with my firewood,I'll send her over.Soon as I get this new scanner working,I'll send you a pix.<P> Bob,<BR> So that's what happened.Is that why my stbx had hissy fits?<P> [censored],<BR> Ok,so just where is that part of the plane going???<BR> <BR> Jodie,<BR> Did I tell you Lora's coming over to mow the lawn,too? She's a real trooper.<BR> Do you think we can get [censored] to send us to DisneyWorld?<P> <BR> ~~Murph
<P>
Hey YOU GUYS!!!!!<P>[censored],<P>Just admit it...you're addicted to this thing aren't ya??!!
(So am I!!! LOL)<P>Bob,<P>So, you have the same name as my stbx! At least I don't call you the same thing I call him! LOL LOL <BR>Where ya been??<P>Jo/Daisy,<P>I'm sure if you sweet talked Murph, he'd come and install your fireplace insert! He's the MB handyman when he's not trying to push it all off on Lora.<P>Murph,<P>I forgot about the lawn too! Duh!!!<P>Tell [censored] to spring for anything sunny and tropical! <P>Jodie/Mitz
Res/Jo, <P>Hey! Aren't you the one with horses??? I thought I emailed you, but heard no response....hope I wasn't drinking too much wine that might!!! Anyway, if you are, my email is arabrider@msn.com......<BR>Ok, I can't stay up as late as soe of you night owls.....so here is my contribution to the 2000 posts!!!<P>------------------<BR>Susan
<BR> I wonder if Jodie is still awake or ZZZZZZ??<BR> <BR> Someplace sunny,and tropical? How about W. Virginia? I hear they have nice weather.<P> We better have Lora put in that insert.I'm pretty"vulnerable".I might be chasing Daisy around with a ShowerMassager!
<P> ~~Murph
<BR>
No, Jodie is not asleep!!!! LOL LOL<P>And what is all this talk about shower massagers again?? And I thought just us women were talking about them! LOL<P>Look at a map! WV is NOT sunny and topical! The weather has been good the past few days though...minus the palm trees. All I need is a drink with a little umbrella!! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
<BR>
Jodie,<BR> Sorry,Willy's just feeling frisky again!<BR> All you need here is a few drinks and a large umbrella.<BR> Actually,the weather is starting to shape up.Upper 70's today,supposed to be half-way nice this weekend.<BR> So,are the kids all through blowing off fingers for the year?Big plans for the weekend?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Yeah, I have big plans for the weekend...clean my house! LOL At least one day this weekend I have to do something here. The other day I'm going to be completely lazy!!! LOL<P>The weather has finally been perfect here. Nice and warm during the day and cool at night!! <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> That doesn't sound like much fun.
<BR> Maybe you can get your kids(or Lora)to do it tomorrow,then be lazy both days!<BR> Of course,I have some yardwork to do before I can go play.<P> ~~Murph/YG
Murph the Yard God,<P>My oldest is going to do the yard work Saturday. My other 2 are going to help with the "woman's work"! LOL LOL Laundry, vaccuuming, dusting, picking up their stuff that's laying around the house! LOL LOL<P>I might just lay on the couch and give orders...and while I'm at it, get me a couple of men to fan me with palm branches! LOL LOL
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Sounds like you got it handled.That's what kids are for.<BR> I'll send [censored] and Bob over with the fans.I suppose you'll expect me to drop by,and wash your feet?<BR> Do you have a big house to clean?A big yard?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Now that's not a bad idea! Run it by [censored] and Bob and see what they think! LOL<P>My house is just a small 3 bedroom rancher. But my yard is just about an acre. The grass needs mowed and the weed-eater run. Plus a little landscaping that will probably never get done. LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Sounds like you could use a riding lawnmower,if you don't already have one.Make sure it has a cupholder for your beer.<BR> <BR>I have about 3/4 of an acre,but mostly landscaping and trees.It takes me about 45 min.to cut it with my self-propelled mower(if I have a cup of Mocha first!).<P> My house is about 2000 sq ft,which seems a little big for one person.But Hey,I like to stretch out!<P> ~~Murph
<BR>
Now I'm nodding off.I think the RHG is ZZZZZ!<BR> Have a good Friday!
<P> ~~Murph/Sleepy
Murph,<P>I don't have a riding mower but my dad does and we borrow it! No cupholder!
<P>Your house is bigger than mine. Mine's about 1100 sq. feet. And I have 4 people here. But it's less to clean! LOL LOL<P>No, I wasn't asleep but I will be soon! It's been a long day. <P>Have a good tomorrow!<P>Jodie
Good Morning All!<P>Only 892 more to go to reach 2,000 // Glad to have Bob (RWD), Sue, Resilient(Jo) joining us...hope they will hang in there with us.<P>On a more serious note, I know that all who have posted here, despite the humorous remarks, kidding around (namely Murph/Mitzi);<BR>that each of you face your own world of pain and loss.<P>Just wanted to encourage each of you today, that each of you are uniquely special to the Lord, He loves each of you UNCONDITIONALLY and His Word tells us that "His mercies and compassion are fresh every morning".<P>God delights in taking what was broken and making it whole....delights in taking failures and turning them into successes!<P>Have a blessed day to each of my new found friends!<P>[censored] from Texas<P>P.S.<P>If anyone is looking for a place to get away for a few days, sounds like Murph has just the place....2,000 Sq Ft just to himself in a lush country setting!
Hi D from T,<P>Now you're gettin' the hang of it!!! Let Murph know it's payback time for offering your money for airfare. Now if we could just get a bunch of people to show up to spend a week with him!!!!
It's would drive him crazy!! LOL LOL<P>Thanks for the inspiring words! I did think that I was a failure but now I consider myself a success. Maybe not at my marriage, but in life. I have 3 wonderful sons, a family and friends that support me, a job that I love, and MB. AND I kept my sanity and my life thru the past 6 months.(There were days when I didn't think I could.) I'm in recovery!<P>Have a great day!<BR>Mitzi
Ok,<BR>I'm beginning to think that going on vacation is not a good idea.... I'm so far behind it will take me a year after I'm dead to catch up!
<P>I'll try to stop in tonight & this weekend here (if I'm not locked away at work all weekend).<P>The trip was good.... my grandparents 60th wedding anniversary was yesterday, so we had a party for them on Sunday after church. There were only 2 people missing (my dad & my BIL). We took family pictures (hired a photographer, so everyone would have their heads in the pics
), and left room to superimpose them later.<P>There were a few things that were not so injoyable.... heat, humidity, chiggers, ticks, mesquitos.... and a little bad news. It's so sad to see my Grandma getting so frail. We got her one of those chairs that lift up so she can get out of it. She loved it.... when she could keep the great-grand kids out of it that is
.<P>Anyone have a home remedy for chigger bites? I haven't had one in probably 20 years.... and now I'm covered with them... must be my pennance for raiding the cemetary (that's another story for another time).<P>Gotta run.... I'll check in tonight!<P>Smooches,<BR>B
Butterfly,<P>From the home remedy queen...clear fingernail polish! Just paint it on. A chigger is actually a little mite that gets under your skin. The fingernail polish gets rid of them. (I learned these things from my grandma! LOL)<P>Glad the trip went well!! And I understand about grandparents looking frail. My grandma is 89, will be 90 in October. She has aged so much in the past year.<P>TTFN,<BR>Mitz/Jodie (Yep, we still have our nicknames!! LOL)<BR>
Hello all...<P>A little friday afternoon humor, just to add +1 towards the 2,000 mark<P>Did you hear about the smart-mouthed teenager who was parked and making out with his girl friend?<P>A policeman walks up, taps on the window and points to a sign that says: "Fine for Parking".<P>The smart-mouthed teenager replied "It sure is".<P>The cop then arrests him and takes him to jail. The next morning he appears before the judge.<P>Upon hearing the charges, the judge slams down the gavel and says "That will be 30 days or 30 dollars".<P>The smart-mouthed kid replies "I'll take the 30 dollars your honor"<P>Have a great week-end everyone!<P>[censored] from Texas
Mitzi and Murphy,<P>When I suggested to get your own thread I DIDN"T MEAN WITH 1000 entries!!!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOL<P>I lost track of this post after the first 10 entries because my PC had a virus, but I'm back now, so BEHAVE!<P>Dana<BR>
[censored],<BR> A lush country setting? Like in a Currier&Ives painting? Hardly...
<BR> Unless you consider kid's cars roaring down the street with their rap music cranked up,a"lush country setting"!<P> Busty,<BR> I wouldn't know what a chigger was if I fell over one.Mostly fleas,and skeeters here.<BR>Oh,and in the winter these rather large,hairy spiders come in the house,and make it their home,too(the kind that Jodie loves).<P> Dana,<BR> We're still waiting with anticipation on those pix of you and Jodie.We want to see some of her as a redhead,too.<P> Oh,Hi,Mitz,<BR> We were just talking about you.How was your day?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>YUK! YUK! YUK! Spiders!! YUK!!! <BR>My day was ok, the same as usual. How bout you?<P>Dana,<BR>It's your fault this started!!
<P>[censored],<BR>GLad you're sticking around!!<P>Butterfly,<BR>Need anymore home remedies??<P>Jodie
<BR>
Hey Bob& Jodie,<BR> Just got back from the beach.Beautiful sunset.Some pretty nice looking women down there,too.(check it out,Bob)<BR> Jodie,<BR> Did you see that big spider on the ceiling above your head?Oh,oh,I think he just ran into your bedroom.Well,at least you won't be sleeping alone tonight!
<P> ~~Murph/Beachbum
Hey Bob!<P>I'm here and Murph will probably be here for a while too.<P>Murph,<BR>I'd rather sleep alone than with a spider!!! LOL<P>Jodie
Hey Jodie,<BR> Spiders need companionship,too.<BR> I was in my den downstairs one night,watching the TV with the lights out.A big spider crawl out to the end of the couch arm,and watched TV with me.<BR>"That what friends are for".......
<P> What kind of critters do you have in W VA?<P> ~~Murph
Hey Murph,<P>We have all kinds of critters in WV. Spiders, June bugs (YUK!!), salamanders, mosquitoes, Just your run-of-the-mill pests! I'd rather have a snake crawl across my couch than a spider! :shiver:<P>One time a friend and her husband were at my house and a June bug got in. I ran in the bathroom and locked the door until he killed it and threw it away. If he would have put it on me, I would have had a heart attack! LOL LOL (Yep, call me chicken!)<P>Mitz/Jodie
Jodie,<BR> I actually slept in this morning.<BR> I saw MI2 with my clone-Tom yesterday.It was an action-packed movie,but I started nodding off half-way through.I must of been tired!<P> You'd rather have a snake crawl across your stomach than a spider?Some of those snakes are poisonous,you know.<BR> So I guess when I get done chasing Daisy around with a ShowerMassager,I get to chase you around with a June Bug?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph/Tom,<P>Chase me with a june bug and you die!!!!<P>We only have 2 poisonous snakes in this area, copperheads and rattlesnakes. We have a lot of non-poisonous snakes though. They don't bother me as much as spiders. I try to steer clear of the poisonous ones. I don't like praying mantis either! I wouldn't make a good exterminator! LOL<P>Went to Deep Creek Lake today. It was great to get out of the house. I played in the water with the boys, laid in the sun and ate like a pig! LOL LOL<P>Mitz/Jodie
<P>
Jodie,<BR> I'm glad you didn't spend all day housecleaning.Sounds like you had some other fun,too.I did some housework and yardwork,then goofed off.
<BR> <BR>Hey,Dt.Murph found Deep Creek Lake on the map!It's in MD.Looks like a good size lake.Do you have a boat? <BR> Bob isn't too far from you,either.He lives in Akron.<BR> <BR>What's going on tomorrow? <P> ~~Murph/Tom
![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/cool.gif)
<BR>
Det. Murph,<P>Yeah, I have a huge boat! NOT!! Nope, just went to swim and lay in the sun!! Gotta work on that movie star tan!
<P>Bob had told me before that he lived in Ohio and sometimes came to Parkersburg, WV for work. Parkersburg is about 3 hours away from me.<P>Tomorrow is the cleaning day!
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> I took a closer look at that lake at Excite.com(I must be bored!).That is a big lake! With a lot of houses around it?<P> So what you're saying is,you put off today what you can do tomorrow?
<P> We want to see pix of that movie star tan!!!<P> ~~Murph/BB
Det. Murph,<P>Yep, it's a big lake with a lot of houses. Expensive houses, too! But it's really nice. <P>If I don't clean my house tomorrow, the mess is going to completely take over! LOL LOL <P>I'm still working on the movie star tan! I'm fair skinned so it takes a while! LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Well,there you go.Start hanging around those expensive houses with that movie star tan,and maybe some rich bachelor will snap you up!
<BR> Of course,then I'd lose my Jodie.
<BR> But she'd be happy in one of those nice houses on the lake.
<BR> Maybe she'd even find a Mel Lookalike!
<P> ~~Murph<P>
Murph,<P>I'd have to spend a lot of time there to catch a rich bachelor. It's basically a family oriented place and I work a lot....so not a lot of time to spend there anyway! Who needs a rich man anyway?? <P>No Mel Gibson look-alikes for me...I'd only take the real thing! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Well,I guess you're out of luck.Mel's happily married,well,this year anyway(you know those Hollywood types).<P>What? A woman who doesn't want a rich man?<BR> I,...I don't believe it!Don't you want to lounge around the lake all day,eating Bon-Bons? <P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Nope, don't want or need a rich man.
<BR>Just someone to be comfortable with. I've never had a lot of money and got by just fine. See? I'm not like any other woman on earth! I'm special!
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> That's what I've been telling you all along!<BR> <BR>I spent a ton of $$$$ on my stbx,and she just took it for granted.It's true,money doesn't buy you happiness(but I'll give being a miserable millionaire a shot!).<P> ~~Murph/Bill Gates<BR>
Murph,<P>I always appreciated everything I had. My family is definately not wealthy but always had everything we needed. When I got married, my H was working and making $6 an hour. And there was a time when he was laid off and getting $134 a week from unemployment. Somehow we always got by. I guess I must be a genius when it comes to managing money!
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> How's your Sunday? Cleaning house,or lazing around?
<BR> The big secret with managing money,is being smart with what you have,no matter how much or how little.The rich folks have known this for years.<BR>I would have to say that I'm probably sitting better on my own,than when I was with the W.She was a big spender,and doesn't have a lot of financial sense.She grew up in a family that's the same way.I tried for years to get my SIL(who is single,older,and poor)to give me a lousy $50 a month to invest in mutual funds for her.But spending her money was more important,and she'll be broke for life.My W may find this out,too.<BR> I don't feel the need to be rich,either.I just want a comfortable life,very little debt,and a decent retirement(on a lake
)<P> How's that tan coming? We want pix!!!<P> ~~Murph
<BR>
Murph,<P>I'm not getting as much done as I need to! I'm getting too much email and just can't bear to turn this thing off! LOL<BR>I'm almost done with laundry though!
<P>I have a 401K plan thru work so that's good for me. I'm just a softie. My kids ask for something and if they ask often enough, I try to get it. But I don't let the bills go. They come first. I'm doing alot better since my stbx left. I don't have to worry about having enough drinking money for him. (and he usually wanted at least $50 a week, most of the time, the last 6 months he was here it was $100).<P>Can't work on a tan slaving away in a house!!! LOL <P>Jodie
<BR>
Jodie,<BR> $100 a week?That's a lot of beers.Now if he'd gone to Costco,and bought it in bulk....<P> That's great that you have a 401K.It's the best deal in town,especially if you get to choose the funds.<P> Yeah,I got my housework done,too.Even waxed the van,that's a job in itself.Sometimes I wish my house was a little smaller,so there wasn't so much dusting,and vacuuming.<P> I hope the weather is nice this week so you can work on that tan!
<P> ~~Murph/Backtowork
Murph,<P>When you sit in a bar for 14 hours a day, you spend a lot of money! LOL<P>I got a lot done today but not all of it. I'll have time to finish up before work tomorrow. I also have to take one of my dogs to get spayed tomorrow. She's 7 months old and I don't want a bunch of puppies running around my house. <P>I just wish I had someone to do the house work for me!
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Don't think I could sit still for 14 hours,let alone in a bar with a bunch of lushes around me!<P> So,you're taking your pooch in to see Dr.Snippit,huh? I'm calling the Inhumane Society on you.What happened to live and let breed? I thought you liked puppies?<P> You need help with the housework? <BR> "LORA,YOU'RE NEEDED OVER HERE!!!"<P> ~~Murph
Hey Guys,<BR>I just found this in my email.... (I'm about half way through what came in while I was gone...only about 150 more to go
). Anyway, I thought it was fitting for this thread...<P><BR>The man passed out in a dead faint as he came out of his front door onto the porch. Someone called 911. <P>When the paramedics arrived, they helped him regain consciousness and asked if he knew what caused him to faint.<P>"It was enough to make anybody faint," he said. "My son asked me for the keys to the garage, and instead of driving the car out, he came out with the lawn mower."
<P>Who brought up housework??? I don't even want to think about housework..... my house looks like a tornado hit it. I'm still trying to clean up the mess from packing to leave, and do all the laundry I came home with. Hey, anyone want to come over and help me?? or at least keep me company
.<P>See ya'll tomorrow.<BR>Smooches,<BR>B
Murph,<P>The dog is at the vet's!!! I actually don't like doing this to her, but she'd end up pregnant soon. And she's just a little beagle and all the male dogs around here are BIG! I'm afraid the puppies would be too big for her. <P>Live and let breed! LOL Isn't that a James Bond movie??!! LOL LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Weather's pretty nice here,how about there?<BR> You know,if you put a chastity belt on your dog,you wouldn't have a problem!<P> Funny you should mention James Bond.I do look a little like Pierce Brosnan,Roger Moore,and Sean Connery all rolled into one.<BR> You do believe me,don't you?<P> ~~Murph/Shakennotstirred
[censored],<P>not funny.........tee hee<P>I'm blonde and a flight attendant........<BR>and gee, I've never heard that one before...................................................................................<P>Thanks so much for springing for an airfare for Murph, what a guy you are. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.<P>Murph - let me know the dates, and I'll check my roster. You may have to check out downtown Brisvegas on your own for a little bit, but it shouldn't take too long.......<P>I am so disparaging about Brisbane, but I really am beginning to like it. I guess after Sydney and Melbourne, it's a LITTE BIT QUIET up here. Try getting a cofffeee after 10pm and see how you like it when they tell they don't get paid overtime, so sorry, they can't serve you.... HHEEEEELLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOO,<BR>is this the outback here, the back of the black stump........<BR>I thought Brisbane was the capital city of a happening booming tourist state.??<P>well, that's my beef for today. Also bear in mind that I do live here, I'm not moving anywhere else again, and I do like it. It's just a bit of fun to poke fun at the folks up here who do things a little differently, and a little more slowly.......<BR>OOOPPPs. there I go again. Can't help myself.<P>love and hugs to all you guys, what a read.<BR>Is there a prize for the 2000th?????<P>Jo/bonnet, not daisy!!!!!!!!!!!
Bonnet Jo,<BR> Guess I had better read up on Australia if [censored] is going to fly me there.What is the time difference there compared to the States?<BR>Are those kangaroos really violent?<BR>When you're upside down under,does it feel different when you put your pants on?
<P> We're working on the prize for #2000!<P> Have a G'day

OOPPSSSSSS.......double post<P>But I have to say, it's tough because this thread is sooooooooooooooooooooooo long and it's hard to tell if anything posted at all!!<P>
<p>[This message has been edited by new_beginning (edited July 11, 2000).]
Hi Kids,<P>Keep up the good work!!
<P>Just driving through...<P>
Good Morning to All!<P>Only 850+ more to go to hit 2k - might be awhile!<P>Bonnet<P>So you're a blonde flight attendant? Hope I didn't offend you with the joke....thanks for joining in.<P>Sorry, but I don't have any jokes for the moment (sorry Murph!)<P>Have a great day and keep those posts coming!<P>[censored] from Texas<P>
Murphy- Back in the days when all the women thought Tom Selleck (Magnum, P.I.) was the best looking man in Hollywood, I knew they were wrong. Pierce Brosnan - without a doubt.<P>As for Oz - been there. It was wonderful except for the nearly getting killed and having to cut the trip short to come home for orthopaedic surgery. But my daughter has a fine name as the result of the experience. Not that anyone can pronounce it correctly. (Instead of wanting people to call her Gillian - pronounced the Aussie way like Gilbert gathers green gardenias - she wants people to call her Jo after the character in "Little Women")
She was so blonde that she studied for a blood test and failed!<P>......so blonde that it takes her 2 hours to watch 60 minutes!<P>[censored] from Texas
She was so blonde that:<P>She studied for a blood test and failed!<P>It takes her 2 hours to watch '60 Minutes'<P><BR>[censored] from Texas
Sorry for the 'double-post'<P>D from T
[censored],<BR>I didn't know you had to study for a blood test....
I'm in trouble!
<P><B>Mitz,<BR>Hate to interupt this mega thread, but there is a new poster, and I think you could really help her. Her nick is notagain, and the thread was posted today on this section. "Need advice RE: Second Divorce Imminant" I think was the thread.</B><P>Sorry I haven't been contributing much to the race for 2K, but I've been busier than a one legged man in a butt kicking contest!
I'm going to relax tonight for a while and play some golf (if it doesn't rain), and then I'll check in for the late night chat.<P>See ya'll later!<BR>Busty<P>------------------<BR>There are deep sorrows and killing cares in life, but the encouragement and love of friends were given us to make all difficulties bearable. <BR>-- John Oliver Holmes<P>The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.<BR>-- Elie Wiesel<P><BR>

[censored],<BR> <BR>How can it possibly take someone 2 hours to watch'60 Minutes'?<P> It only takes me 1 1/2 hours!<P> ~~Murph
<P>
Hi guys,<P>you are all so wacky!!!<P>I have a question for you all, what's a june bug? Why are they so scary? What's a chigger?<P>Murph - I think the time difference is about 12 hours, when it's midday here, it's midnight there. Roughly that, anyway. Yep, kangaroos sure can be violent. There was a kangaroo attack on a golf course last year (if you can believe that). A little boy went to get his father's lost ball, and the kangaroo attacked him. They do actually kick with their big powerful hind legs, and almost 'punch' with their front little legs (arms?). Must have been a grumpy old thing. Maybe my FIL in disguise!!!!!! Doesn't happen often, so don't start an urban myth that all kangaroos beat everyone up.!!!!!!!!!<BR>As for putting my pants on, it is SOOOOOOOOOO<BR>hard doing it upside down................ Have you ever tried it? Before you laugh at all us backward aussie folk down here, try and live like we have to..........Makes swinging from the chandeliers fun tho!!!!!!!!<P>[censored] - yes, I really am a blonde flight attendant, and a natural blonde too. I wish you hadn't told me about having to study for a blood test. I have to do my St. John's Ambulance first aid course next week, and blood is part of the course. Now I'm stressing............... another exam.......<BR>LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL<BR>most of your jokes are funny, they give me quite a giggle. BUT, I do not think there would be many blonde/flight attendant jokes that I have not heard. The pilots take great delight in sharing all that they have heard.<BR>Maybe we could make it a goal to find one that I haven't heard. That would be novel!!!!<P>thanks again for springing for the airfares. What a guy.....<P>hugs to everyone<P>Bonnet/Jo
OMG!!! I made it back!!! My server was down last night and most of the day today. Talk about major withdrawals!!!! <P>Murph, How ya been???? <P>Jo, Glad to see you're hanging out here!!!<P>cinderella, What's up??<P>Butterfly, I posted to notagain. Thanks for helping me find her!<P>[censored], 60 Minutes?? What's that?? LOL LOL<P>Sheryl, You just can't stay away, can ya??<P><BR>Jodie
JODIE!<BR> I thought we were going to have to send out Search and Rescue! How have you been?<BR> Yeah,if my PC goes down,I'm going to be in bad shape.What did we do before computers?<P> ~~Murph
Murph!!!!<P>I felt so lost without my internet. I just sat here trying over and over to get connected!!!
(I was actually getting a little mad by noon today! LOL)<P>I've been good. Work is busy this week. We're hiring new people and I had to help with training today. I also have to help with it Thursday and Friday. It means some overtime! <P>People wrote letters with pens and spent lots of money on phone bills in the old days! LOL<P>Jodie
(I'm not lost anymore!!LOL)
Jodie,<BR> Hiring new people?Does this mean a promotion for you?<BR> Well,we wouldn't have great support boards like this without the internet.We'd just be venting,and whining to our families instead!Never dreamed I be conversing(and whining)to a Jodie Foster lookalike in W VA!
<BR> Overtime is good.I might get some myself,we're starting to get a little behind at the Lazy B.<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Nope, no promotion. Just more work. I have enough responsibilities with just my job title. The thing that cracks me up, is the people that work in the house I manage honestly think I'm not their boss and I can't tell them what to do! LOL LOL Little do they know! <P>I whined a lot when I first came here. Now I just basically read and chit-chat. And I found out that there's a Mel/Tom/George/Pierce/Sean in WA! LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie/Boss Lady,<BR> I guess you'll just have to throw your weight around a little more.Maybe slap'em around a little?
<BR> The trouble at Boeing is too many bosses.Then people who think they're your boss,but aren't.You know,too many chiefs,and not enough Indians.<BR> Any hot news stories in Keyser?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Yeah, right!! I'll just have to throw all 110 lbs around! LOL LOL LOL <P>Hot news?? In Keyser??? Hey! The fire whistle went off while I was at work. Must have been a wreck or a fire or a medical emergency somewhere in the area! LOL LOL Honestly though, I never get a chance to read the paper. And when I do, it's pretty boring stuff. Small town news.<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Better start eating those ice cream bars!<BR> Small town news?Someone got nicked during a haircut?
<BR> No mass murders,suicides,traffic pileups,drive-by shootings,or child molesters moving next door? Sounds like a pretty boring town.How do you handle all that peace and quiet?<BR> Send some this way,will ya?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I need to quit eating late at night or I'll have alot of weight to throw around! LOL I sit here and eat! <P>Wait a minute! In April we had a murder/suicide. A man killed his wife then shot himself. And several years ago, a guy shot a lady at the 7-11. He ran from the cops for a few days then they had a shootout in a smaller town about 45 minutes from here (Petersburg). It was BIG news! LOL LOL <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Well,at least our spouses didn't decide to shoot us! Now that's looking on the bright side.We have murder/suicides here all the time,pretty pathetic.Probably all that big city stress.
<BR> I have a decent metabolism,and I stay active,so that keeps me slender(as long as I don't start eating too many donuts).<BR> BTW,just what is the population of Keyser?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>My stbx threatened to shoot me a long time ago. I told him to take his best shot! <P>I used to be able to eat like a pig and not gain a pound. Of course, that all changes when you have kids! LOL The metabolism ain't what it used to be.<P>I have no idea what the population is here...Maybe 10,000 in and around Keyser. Didn't you find that on the internet yet?? LOL LOL
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> I keep a handgun in the bedroom for protection(in the big city),but she never threatened to use it.But like I said before,we really never fought.<BR> You're right,I probably could find info about Keyser on the web.Now if you gave me your home address,I could patch into one of our satellites,and watch you sunbathing in the backyard!Then I'd have pix to show everyone!!
<BR> Well,I'm off to beddy-bye.Can't be sleeping on the job(then again,why not?).Catch you later,Boss Lady.
<P> ~~Dt.Murph
Murph,<P>Who has time to sunbathe??! You'd see me chasing a 3 year old around or chasing a puppy! LOL LOL Or just getting in my car to go to work. Now if my web tv was outside, I'd spend more time there! LOL LOL <P>I don't even own a gun, unless you count my 2 older sons' BB Guns. But the one gun does shoot pellets. And I have pretty good aim. Stbx always wanted to get a gun. I told him if he did, one of us would end up getting shot! (It probably would have been him! LOL)<P>I gotta get some sleep too. Gotta run errands in the morning before work! <P>Nite-Nite,<BR>Jodie
Gee....almost 12 hours since the last post??<BR>Will we ever reach 2,000?<P>Murph<BR>The reason it only takes you 1-1/2 hours to watch 60 minutes is you must not be 'pure blonde'.<P>Hey Mitzi: Did you hear that Murph is going to move? Yeh, he heard that 90% of all crimes occur around the home so he decided to move!<P>She was soooooooo blonde that, on a job application where it said "Sign Here", she put Taurus.<P>Bonnet/Jo<P>From what I gather, you live in Australia or New Zealand? Or am I mistaken?<P>Why don't you share some flight attendant jokes with us?<P>If you are from the Land Down Under, you will appreciate this: Several years ago, I saw this map of the world hanging on the wall. It was upside down with Australia on top.<P>The caption said: "No longer down under".<P>If anyone is interested, I will be happy to e-mail a picture of myself. Just had a digital picture taken of myself in my office.<BR>My e-mail address is: dickt@ecsintl.com<P>Wonder how many more late night/early morning chats between Murph/Mitzi it will take for us to reach 2k?<P>Cheers!<P>[censored] from Texas
[censored],<BR> I was a true blond when I was young.Now I'm kind of a aging,dirty blond.Pretty dirty minded,too.Just ask Mitz,she'll tell you.<BR> <BR>You know,I also heard that most auto accidents occur within 5 miles of your home,so I park my car 5 miles from my house,and walk the rest of the way.Pretty smart thinking,huh?<BR> <BR>Why are you e-mailing your pix?You're not trying to get dates with Jodie,are you? You just stay in Texas,fella!
<P> ~~Murph/BeachBum
Hey [censored],<P>Australia. I'd love to see that map, I've never seen or heard of anything like that. Australia finally where it should be, at the top of the world!!!!!!!!! LOL I know heaps of people who would love it. I've never been to New Zealand, although everyone I know who has says it is beautiful. Must get there one day. I think it's only about 2 1/2 hours flying time.<P>As for the f/a jokes, have to think about that one. I don't like to share them around - for obvious reasons. The less who know, the better for me!!!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOL I have heard some very funny ones tho in my time. I just have to remember them. I'm lousy for jokes, both remembering them, and telling them. I always manage to get the punchline in the wrong place......... go on, say it, weeeeeelllllllll, you are blonde.........<P><BR>MURPH - do you work for Boeing? We're just about to get the Boeing 717. It's the first time anyone has used it in this country. I'm quite excited about it, although it looks like the MD80 that we used to fly. Someone told me that Boeing and McDonnell Douglas collaborated on the 717, isn't it amazing how the 'goss' gets around. I just love everything about the aviation industry. I think I have avgas in my veins!!!!!! I used to work for Cathay Pacific after I stopped flying for a while - groundstaff - and had the best time. The fun we used to have, with passengers, with loaders, moving the aerobridge etc etc. If only they knew..... It was interesting finding out what the groundstaff had to do, and sooooooo interesting chatting to the immigration/customs people. The stories they had to tell.......amazing.....<P>have to go<P>hugs to you all<P>Jo
Jo(not Daisy),<BR> The Boeing 717-200 is a take off of the MD-9 twin-jet airliner.It has 106 seats,can fly 8-12 hours with better fuel economy,and less noise.It's been used here in the States for the last year or so(rollout in June'98)for efficient,short range,domestic flights.It's built in Long Beach,CA.I work in the wing division in WA.<P> I would love to see Australia some day.Didn't they have a World Expo in Sydney a few years back?I wonder what that was like?<BR> <BR>Just wondered,when you open that can of peas down there,do they all fly up to the ceiling?
<P> G'Day...<P> ~~Murph<p>[This message has been edited by Murphy (edited July 12, 2000).]
Hey D from T,<P>I never get to chat with you because of work. I love the blonde jokes!!
I'm a redhead! (At least this month I am!) <P>Murph,<P>Are we a little jealous?? Maybe I'll just have to get that picture of [censored]! LOL <BR>Who has a dirty mind?? Where???<P>Bonnet Jo,<P>HEY!!! You keep coming here to the cool thread!!!! I wish I was around when you are. Don't forget to email me!<P>Jodie
<BR>
Jodie,<BR> Hey,anybody can find a picture of some male model and attach it to their e-mail.Don't let [censored] fool you.<BR> <BR>A dirty mind?Me? Do I have to come over there,and chase you around with my ShowerMassager!
<P> ~~Murph/DirtyOldMan
Murph,<P>You just want me to be suspicious of [censored]!!! LOL<P>There you go with the shower massager again. You can tell where your mind is most of the time! LOL
<P>Jodie
<BR>
Jodie,<BR> Didn't your Momma tell you,don't ever trust anyone from Texas?(people from Washington...they OK!)<P> If I recall,wasn't it YOU that brought up the ShowerMassager in the first place???<BR> Get your mind out of the gutter,so mine can float on by.........
<P> ~~Murph/DOM<P>
Murph,<P>My mom always warned me about dirty old men! LOL LOL LOL<P>I believe it was Gina who brought up the shower massager! I just agreed with her and asked to borrow it! LOL
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> No,I'm not really a dirty,old man.<BR> I take a shower everyday,with my ShowerMassager.
<P> Where is Marilyn,anyway?I must of scared her off.<BR> How's the weather there?<P> ~~Murph/COM
Murph,<P>Shower massages don't clean your mind! LOL<P>I have no idea where Marilyn is. She must not like us anymore.<P>The weather here is nice. Warm during the day and cool at night. We had some rain Monday but it's gone now. <BR>How about there?<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> It's not too bad.Real nice today,went for a walk this evening.It's been staying in the 70's,just right for us slug people.<BR> <BR>What was wrong with your ISP? I have three different ones,all free,so if one goes down,I just log onto another one.Pretty handy.<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>We had a thunderstorm the other day and it caused some problems with my ISP. With Web TV, I can't use more than one ISP. It would save me some money if I could use one of the free ones! LOL<P>I get to go for a walk every evening at work. The one guy I work with is really overweight and needs the exercise. But I have to make sure it's an easy walk because he has other health problems too. At least it keeps him awake! LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Well,I hate to do it to you,but I need to get some sleepZZZZZ.Tiring day today.I had to work,so no naps!<BR> So,DOM is going to crawl into bed with his dog,and ShowerMassager.A threesome?
<BR> <BR> Catch you later,RHG/THO
<P> ~~Murph<BR>
G'Night Murph,<P>I'm headed to Dreamland myself. I gotta go into work at 9am.YUK!!!<P>Jodie The Redheaded Goddess! LOL
Folks, it's 9:30 a.m.!! Time to rise and shine. Are you a bunch of lazy bums?<P>
Good Morning All!<P>MURPH<P>Hey! You made a funny! Most accidents happen 5 miles from home so you park your car 5 miles from home and walk the rest of the way...that's a good one.<P>MITZI<P>It's always good to hear from you....have a good day!<P>BONNET/JO<P>Guess you are from the 'land down under'. I was watching Good Morning America several years back and they were broadcasting live from Australia.<P>From what I understand..your winters (or cold weather) is in May ??<P>Are you permitted to share what airlines you fly with?<P>I have been to Europe twice (different countries) and China/Hong Kong twice.<P>You will appreciate this; I heard about an airline that flew within China which had both smoking/non-smoking sections. The smoking section was up front...duh! The smoke blew back to the non-smoking section.<P>MURPH<P>When Mitzi/Jodie was a blond, I heard that she thought Taco Bell was the Mexican phone company.<P>She was sooooo blonde that when she went to the airport and saw a sign that said<BR>"Airport Left"....she turned around and went home.<P>[censored] from Texas
Hi all you Giga Thread Friends!<P>I see D from T is still telling blonde jokes.<P>Those were pretty funny, D from T! I didn't know Mitz was blonde.<P>Just dropping in to say "Hola" folks.<P>Miss you guys. Maybe I'll join ya tonight.<P>Me and a quart of Haagen Daz ...
<P>Jo
Cinderella,<BR>I've been up and at 'em since 7:30am! LOL Just got a break from work and have to go back from 3-11pm. <P>D from T,<BR>Hi there! I finally get to read something that you've posted. And it's not midnight here! LOL<P>Jo,<BR>I was born with black hair, then it turned blonde. Now it's auburn. But it's been several different colors! LOL<P>I'll be here tonight!<P>Jodie
It's been almost 6 hours since the last post, are we still serious about reaching 2,000?<P>Was working late and thought I'd jump in an liven things up a bit.<P>[censored] from Texas
Resilient/Jo<P>I read on the WHAT'S YOUR PROFESSION thread that you are an 'Engineer'.<P>Ok....what time does the next train leave?<BR>ha! ha!<P>[censored] from Texas
This was really cute. lol It actually made me smile. Haven't had a real smile on in a few days. What am I talking about. I wasn't REALLY happy when he was here. lol BIG DEAL. Thanks for bringing up the spirits!

Hey Murph,<P>have you got a camera in my house? How the heck did you know I was cleaning peas off the ceiling? It took so long too, that's why I haven't been here for a while!!!!!!!!!!!!<P>Where's WA? I thought for a moment you were in Perth, Western Australia........ then I remembered our only aircraft manufacturing 'plant'?? is in Victoria. Or at least I think it is.<BR>The 717 we're getting is configured for 117 pax. They must have made the seats smaller for all us midgets here..........<BR>The airline I'll be with is Impulse Airlines. They've been around for about 20 years, mainly flying the regional inland routes. They've decided to expand, to comptete with Qantas and Ansett, our two 'biggies'. Well, biggies in their own cups of tea!!!!!!!!!!!! Hence the bigger aircraft.<BR>I can't wait to start flying again, it really gives me all I need from a job. Now, everytime I look out on the wing, I can think of you. God, there I go again. I'm thinking of strange men who drive ambulances (Medic and Timtam) and now I'm thinking of men who make aircraft wings..................<BR>sigh sigh sigh, so many men LOLOLOLOL<P>BIG BIG JOKE THERE !!!!!!!!!!<P>I don't remember a world expo in Sydney. I lived there for 2 years 97 - 99, and it wasn't on then. At least I don't think so, although I was pregnant, so could have missed it........<BR>There was a world expo in Brisbane in 82 or 83. It was fabulous. The area were they held it has been redeveloped into public parklands, a manmade beach (Brisbane is the only capital city in Australia not on the ocean!!), restaurants, cafes, rainforest, the art gallery, museum and entertainment centre are there, and it goes on. It's a great place, for everyone. I love it. I probably take my girls there once a week. The best part is that it is all free.<P>Mitzi - this time difference is a killer. I have been busy lately tidying up a few loose ends, and catching up with friends before I go back to work. I went out for dinner last night with friends from Sydney and had the best time. We went to a place called Tomato Brothers!!!! What a cool name. It is an Italian place, restaurant would be too good, but it's more than a cafe. We had divine gourmet pizza's, I'd go back there now for lunch. Shall I order for us?<BR>Have to go now, The Young and the Restless is on..........Iknow, Iknow, but it's my one vice. We're probably a decade behind, Jack is married to Lan, Cricket and Paul have just broken off their engagement because she slept with Danny, Olivia is going through the aids scare because of Nathan's affair, and Nick just married Sharon!!!!!!!!!!!!!<P>Will get back on in an hour.<P>hugs to everyone<P>Jo
[censored],<P>It's a good thing I don't have the internet at work! I'd never get anything done! LOL<P>lonely,<P>Jump in and join the fun!!!!!!<P>Bonnet Jo,<P>Going back to work is hard but this is the first job I've ever had, and I love it. It's really helped my self-esteem. I earn a paycheck, my stbx doesn't hand it to me! <P>Anyhoo! I'm sitting here doing paperwork in between typing. Maybe tomorrow won't be as long as today!!!<P>Jodie/Mitz
Jo,<BR> I live in Seattle,Washington.Actually,in the outskirts.Land of Lattes,and Banana slugs.<BR> You're right,the Expo I'm thinking of was in Brisbane.We went to the one in Vancouver,BC in'86.Biggest crowd I've ever been in.<BR> The next time you're flying in a Boeing jet,and you see the wing bouncing up and down,don't worry.Probably just a couple of rivets popping loose.That's why we put in extra ones!
<P> Hey Jodie(RHG),<BR> Did you have a long day,too?For some reason,this week has been pretty busy.Kinda tired,but going to work the weekend.Those big$$$$,you know.What are you doing this weekend?(besides cleaning the house....again)<P> ~~Murph/Greedy
Murph,<P>Yep, I had a really long day. I went to work to do training at 9. Got done at 1:30. Came home for about an hour and went back and worked from 3-11pm. Tomorrow I have to be at work at 10am for a meeting and to turn in timesheets. It should only be an hour though. BUT I still have to work my regular shift too. <BR>I think I'm gonna sleep all weekend!!!!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Drat,my outside halogen light is burned out.You have one of those?I bet it gets pretty dark where you live,huh?Lots of stars and stuff?(UFO's?)<P> Sleeping all weekend sounds like a plan.<BR> Maybe over by your lake?
<P> ~~Murph<BR>
Here is my contribution towards 2,000<P>[censored] from Texas
Hi [censored],<P>Think we'll ever make it to 2000?? LOL I'll be up late tonight since I don't have to work tomorrow. I'll have to make up for lost time on this thread!
<P>Murph,<BR>Nope, we use regular lightbulbs here! LOL LOL<P>The first time my ex-BIL came to my house to stay he was scared. He said it was too dark here and too quiet. He's from Baltimore. There's no smog here and you can see the stars unless it's cloudy. At night, you hear frogs, crickets and dogs! LOL Sometimes we hear the occassional bear and screech owls. Pretty peaceful!<P>Time to get ready for work!<BR>Jodie/Mitz
OMG! I'm trying to hurry up and post this to get 1200. I WANNA PRIZE!!! Cough it up, Murph!!!!!!!!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> 1200 POSTS!!!<BR> AND THE LITTLE LADY WINS.......<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V <BR> V <BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V <BR> V <BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR> V<BR>V<BR>.....A FREE TRIP UP THE SPACE NEEDLE!!!!!!<P><BR> ~~Murph/YourTourGuide
<P>
Murph,<P>Does that include airfare (or trainfare!LOL) and accommodations???<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> You expect airfare for ONLY 1200 replies?<BR> I assumed with your redhair and voluptuous fiqure,you could hitchhike your way over here!<BR> <BR>As for accomodations,I have an old hide-a-bed down in the basement(plenty of spiders to keep you company).
<P>You expected,maybe,the Seattle Hilton?
<P> ~~Murph<P>
Murph,<P>You'd expect me to hitchhike????? But wouldn't that be dangerous????
<P>You can keep your nasty spiders. If you like 'em so much, you sleep with them!!!! LOL LOL <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Dangerous? Oh,don't believe everything you read.Those truckers,bikers,perverts,and drunken drivers are actually really nice folks.<BR> Only teasing about the spiders.I caulked the daylights out of this place,and don't get too many anymore.Besides,the rats chased them all away........<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Just the type of men I'm looking for! NOT!!!<P>What kind of crappy tour guide are you??? Shoving me in a basement, on a hide-a-bed,, with rats and/or spiders!! <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> You're right,I'm not scoring any points tonight,right?
<P> I'm just surprised you'd even think about going up the Space Needle.Long way down.But don't worry,a woman jump off of it years ago,so they installed better guards.It is a beautiful view of the mountains,the city,and the Sound.<P> Did you say that you've never flown before?The first time I flew was just down to LA to see relatives.It was really strange the first time,but I don't remember being too scared.Taking off down the runway,and lifting off is like being in a top fuel dragster,kinda cool.<P> Not that many spiders,rats,and NO June bugs around here,really!
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I wouldn't go up!!! I'd stand on the ground and look up at it! Then send my camera up with someone so I could see the view that way!! LOL LOL<P>Never flown before either. Planes just go too high off the ground. Now if they just hovered a few feet off the ground, I could definately do it!
Pass the sedatives! LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> I won't laugh at you,sometimes I get really dizzy just on the roof of my house.Actually,I have more trouble sitting for a long flight.When I flew to FLA,I popped a pain killer,and slept most of the way.<BR> I guess sometimes I push myself to do things that bother me,hoping to overcome it.<BR>You know,like getting up,going to work......<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Well you can make fun of me all you want! I'm a chicken!! And I'm not ashamed of it!
<P>If I pushed myself, I'd probably cry and throw up! That would be real attractive! LOL I've thought about therapy and hypnotism. Just need to find someone who deals with phobias. I have too many of them.<P>Jodie
Jodie/Chicken Little,<BR> A good thing you live where you do.The stress in a big city would do you in!
<BR> <BR>I think some things are just ingrained.I was real shy as a child,so even now I don't like large crowds or public speaking;never make it as a politicion!Still nervous around women,as you can tell!
<P> When I retire,I'd like to move where it does get dark.You can't even see the Milky Way here.You have to go out aways for that.<BR>What are you doing this weekend,bumming around? I'm working(but not too hard).<P> ~~Murph<P> <BR>
Murph,<P>Day to day stress I can handle. I am raising 3 boys on my own and I've never been on my own. I went from mom and dad to stbx. Plus I work with developmentally disabled adults. That in itself makes me think I'm insane sometimes! LOL Talk about stress! LOL<P>My mom is also afraid of heights. Maybe that's where I get it from.<P>I'm cleaning and bumming. I might just stay in my house all weekend!! LOL Sleeping in, too! <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Yeah,I offered to work,and now I hear it may be 80'on Sun. Oh well,big bucks,right?<BR> Maybe you can work on that movie star tan.
<BR> <BR> Well,I'm off to beddy-bye.Gotta get up for work in a few.
<P> Have a great Saturday.Practice that hitchhiking stance in the mirror!<BR> 'nite,RHG
<P> ~~Murph/Sleepy
Murph,<P>Working on the weekend?? Geez, what kind of fun is that???
<P>I'll have to work on the tan while doing yardwork or whenever the sun shines thru a window! LOL <P>G'Night,<BR>Jodie
Hey Jodie,<BR> Our thread is falling behind! Can't let that happen!
<BR> I'm getting ready to go to work,and it's beautiful outside.
<BR> I read at MSNBC webpage that there's a lunar eclipse today,but we can't see it in the US.There's webcams to look at it,though.<BR> <BR> You have a great Sunday.Get out and enjoy the sunshine(if you have any).<BR>Work on that tan.We want PIX!
<P> ~~Murph/LazyBBum
Murph,<BR>No one posted yesterday and I didn't want to keep posting to myself! It's not like my day was that exciting! <P>I did get my Primestar changed over to DirecTV. And then the guy who changed it asked me to go out to a bar with him!
Nope, not my type. He's still married, too. He got shot down by Jodie! LOL
<P>I'll have to check out the eclipse. My kids love to see things like that. Anytime we can see something like that here, we check it out. I've even gotten them up in the middle of the night to see stuff. <P>It's gonna be a nice day here, too! Too bad you're stuck at work. I think I'm gonna go to my friends house and hang out.<P>Have a good day!!!<BR>Jodie
AAAACCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKk!!!!!! What the he## happened to my brain this weekend????<P>If you missed it <A HREF="http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/Forum34/HTML/000579.html" TARGET=_blank>Sex and the X.... What just happened???</A>.<P>I wish I had been at work this weekend.... I'd still have my mind intact.<BR>*********************************************<P>Time to get back on track here.....<P>Hey Murph.... what does the 1300 poster get??? The Space Needle, spiders, rats & what????
Your basement... AKA the Murphy Hilton!
<P>I'm trying to get my vacation extended to a week and a half, so I'll have time to do all I want to while I'm out that way. (So Mitz & I will have enought time to get some really good pictures while I'm there!
) I guess I'll have to enlist Mom's help on this one. <P>[censored], where's the joke for the weekend???? Oh, and thanks for the picture... I'm still looking for one to send (I'm not very photogenic).
<P>Mitz, are you sleeping the weekend away???? <P>Ok, enought for now... <BR>Smooches,<BR>B
Butterfly/Busty,<P>I saw your post!!!!! (The word SEX kinda jumped out at me!
) What the hell is going on with him??? Hmmmmm, this needs a lot of thought! <P>Nope, not sleeping the weekend away. Just trying to get all of my housework done before I have to go back to work tomorrow. I also feel kinda dumb being the only one posting on this thread! LOL<P>Jodie
Mitz,<P>I don't know what happended... my mind went on vacation I guess... damn those hormones!
<P>I've been staying online all afternoon, incase he calls.... so I won't know unless he leaves a message.<P>I need to get to the house cleaning too... ugggghhh....
I hate housework.<P>I'll check back later....<BR>Busty
Butterfly,<P>I'm sooo glad nothing like that has happened to me! I'm still pretty "vulerable" right now!
I don't know that I would have had the will-power to stop!<P>I am such a procrastinator when it comes to cleaning house.<P>I do know what you mean about staying online. I did it all the time. And still do!
I just don't want to answer the phone if stbx calls. This way he can leave a message and the boys can call him back! (Plus I'm an internet junkie!)<P>I wonder if I can get a prize for 1220??<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> The only one posting on this thread?What am I,chopped liver?
<BR> Pretty hot at work today,but you know us NW wimps.I'll have to check out the pix of that eclipse.I wish it was darker here,so I could see more stars.Beautiful moon last night,though.<P> You had a a strange married man offer to buy you a drink,and you turned him down?Kinda picky,ain't ya?
<BR> I know what you mean about being vulnerable,though.I suppose if TheStudent showed up,and wanted to jump my bones,I'd probably............never mind!<P> Busty,<BR> What's going on with you???<BR> Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?(not me)<BR> The Murphy Hilton,that's good.We even serve an uncomplimentary breakfast.<BR> <BR>Did you hear Mitz won the trip up the Space Needle? She's not sure if she wants to go.I think you and I can"persuade"her to get on the elevator(you get the arms,I'll get the legs).She'll get that free trip whether she wants it or not!
<P> Prize for the 1300 Post? Bungee Jumping? Sky Diving? Suspension Bridge in BC???<P> ~~Murph
<P> <P>
Murph,<P>I meant I didn't want to be the only one posting earlier today!! <P>The guy was really trying hard! Poor thing! He even unbuttoned his shirt to show me his tattoo!!
(It's probably a good thing my 3 year old was home at the time! LOL LOL)<P>Just try getting me to go up the Space Needle! I can run like hell when I'm petrified!!!! (I'll just have to come armed with a bag full of glasses! Look out!!
)<P>I guess I'll just have to let someone else get the prize for 1300!! <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> You really like those guys with the tattoos?<BR> <BR> WAIT A MINUTE! WHAT WAS THAT GUY DOING PEELING OFF HIS SHIRT IN YOUR HOUSE???<P> Don't worry,I won't force you to go on the elevator.It also has a set of stairs.
<P> ~~Murph<BR> <p>[This message has been edited by Murphy (edited July 16, 2000).]
Murph,<P>Not his tattoos! He had his 3 kids' names tattooed on his arm, chest and leg. They didn't even have any color in them. Just done in black ink. Weren't done by a very good artist either. <P>What can I say?? Men see me and they want to take their shirts off. Must be the movie star looks and tan!
<P>Stairs are even worse than an elevator. I can think about how high up I'm going for a longer period of time! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Men see you,and they want to take their shirts off?<BR> Gee,if I ran into a tan Jodie Foster,I'd want to take something else off!
<P> I don't think either of us would make it up 600' of stairs! Maybe next year.<BR> <BR> How hot did it get there today? It was about 80'here.The house is still warm.<P> ~~Murph
<BR> <P><BR> <P>
Murph,<P>I think the guy thought he was going to impress me with his tattoos!
No thanks! He is way too cool for me! LOL <P>There is no way I'm climbing 600' of stairs!!! I don't care what year it is! LOL I'll just stand on the ground and wave to y'all! <P>I'm not sure what the temp was here. About 85 I think. But it was humid too! It thundered all day but we never got any rain. Sunshine and thunder! Go figure!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Is tomorrow really Monday?
<BR> <BR>So,it can thunder without clouds?I was in Florida on a sunny day,and I thought I heard thunder.When it thunders here,we're usually in for a good storm.Weren't you the one who hides under the covers during a storm?
<P> I gave up trying to impress anyone years ago.What's the point? If you got it,flaunt it;if you don't got it,you ain't got nothing to flaunt!<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I guess now it can thunder and the sun can shine! I have to admit, it was a little strange. <P>Yes, it was me! I have the big fear of thunderstorms! LOL But that is getting better. I don't want my kids to be as afraid as I am, so I force myself to sit calmly thru them. It's hard though when I really want to close all the windows and curtains and hide! LOL <P>There is no one around here worth impressing! Just a bunch of losers! LOL <P>Yep, tomorrow is Monday!
<P>Jodie
Murph,<BR>Like I said... my mind went on vacation! Hey, if I come out that way in August or September, will ya take me to the Space Pin? How far is it to Pasco/Richland from there? I have friends there I want to see on my way to LA. I'm still trying to decide on dates.... but I'm thinking about the middle of August or late Sept.<P>Mitz, <BR>I didn't get much housework done today... how bout you? I've been planning all the things I want to do on my vacation, and it's almost late enough to get off-line and check my messages
.<P>Watch out for those men with tatoos... scary! I got hit on last night after I left X's house.... in my car, this really good looking guy pulled up next to me. He invited me to a party in the mountains.... Yeah, my brain was scrambled, but not that much! LOL LOL. Actually, there were several guys in trucks headed that way w/ camping gear. Oh well, if he's clever, he could get my name from my license plate, and they drove past my house on their way (saw me pull in). LOL <P>I'm still trying to find the ingredients for the bath bombs.... I can't find the citric acid powder. Any ideas where I might find it?<P>*sigh* I think I'll check my messages... see if anyone called.<P>Smooches,<BR>BB<BR>
butterfly,<P>I WISH I had gotten a lot more done today! LOL It usually turns out that way though. I have good intentions!
<P>This is only the 2nd guy to ask me out since stbx left. It feels really weird to have a man ask me to go somewhere with him. Almost like I'm in high school again! LOL<P>I haven't even had time to look for the bath bomb ingredients yet...
<P>Mitz
Jodie,<BR> I hope we're not a bunch of losers.<BR> Just some dedicated people who tried to save their marriage,even though their spouse's were out screwing around.There's got to be some integrity in that.
<BR> <BR>I remember reading in"Tough Love"that the author,James Dobsen said that if he caught his W cheating,he'd never want to see or hear from her again,period.I only wish I could be that tough.But then he wrote the book,right?<P> I guess I've never been afraid of storms.We always turned out the lights,opened the blinds,and watched it out our large picture window.I'm more afraid of what people can do to me,than what Mother Nature can!<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>No, we're definately not losers. We all did our best but sometimes that isn't enough to hold a marriage together. On of these days, our spouses will see what they've lost and regret it. <P>I'd rather not hear from my stbx again. If it wasn't for the kids, I wouldn't. (Not that I hear from him that often even with kids). He's just a part of my life that I'd like to forget ever existed.<P>There is no way I can watch a storm. I can sit there while it's happening but I'm not getting close to any windows! LOL<P>Jodie
Busty,<BR> Here I thought you were going to help me shove,er,I mean guide Mitz onto the elevator!<P> I could take you up as long as you don't get scared when you see how high it is!<BR>Pasco is probably about 250 miles from Seattle.A little bit of a drive.Bringing your Ferrari?<P> Jodie,<BR> See! Everyone wants to go up the Needle.<BR> <BR>I hope you're right about the regret thing,just to make me feel better.Unfortunately,I don't seem to be able to forget that part of my life,because it was pretty good.<BR> <BR>It's OK,my windows are grounded!
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I told ya, I'll stand on the ground and wave to y'all!!! LOL<P>I do think I am right, especially if the marriage was good. Mine sucked, so it's easier for me to forget about. But my stbx had it made. He couldn't have asked for a better wife. <P>Mitz
Jodie,<BR> I've done a lot of looking back at my marriage,in retrospect.<BR> Our first few years together,she was a real good W,but that seemed to change over the years.<BR> It just seems like the last several years,I was the one bringing her coffee,building her fires,washing her car,rubbing her feet and back,buying her little gifts,etc,all without being asked.If I wanted anything,I usually had to ask.But I loved to put her on the floor while we watched TV,and give her a long massage.<BR> Did your H do things like this for you? Is it possible to give too much?<P> ~~Murph
<BR>
I've been watching this thread. I haven't been posting in a long time, but I decided to come out of hiding and say "HI"!<P><A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Hills/9703/friendship.html" TARGET=_blank>Friends!</A><P>Hugs & Kisses,<BR>TCF
Murph,<P>On the rare occassion, he did nice things for me. We were together a total of 14 years and I think he bought me 4 birthday gifts. And I think he bought me something for Christmas about 5 or 6 times. He only did something for me if he wanted something in return. He never did things just to do them. And if I asked him to do anything, he *****ed about it the whole time. <P>He wasn't a good husband.<P>Mitzi
Hi TCF!! <P>Thank you for coming out of hiding to post this for us!! <P>Mitzi
Jodie,<BR> 4 Birthday gifts?<BR> Sorry,I can't comprehend that.
<BR> <BR>I usually sent flowers to my W's office,bought her a nice gift,and took her out to dinner on her B-day,Valentines Day,and our anniversary day,for 21 years.<BR> Isn't that what a H is supposed to do?<P> I'm off to hit the hay........ZZZZZZZZ<BR> You have a good Monday.
<P> ~~Murph/Sleepy
Murph,<P>See why it's easy to forget? There's not alot of good stuff to remember. <P>A husband should do those things and so should a wife. I busted my behind doing everything I could for him. Life was so easy for him because he didn't have to be responsible for anything. I took care of all the important things. Kids, finances, the house. It still makes me angry sometimes to think that I wasted all that time with him. I just got stuck and didn't know how to get out. And I thought I loved him.<P>Nite-nite,<BR>Mitzi
Good Morning All!<P>I see Murph/Mitzi have kept the home fires burning over the week-end.....only 759 more to go to hit the big 2k<P>It was nice to have the Card Fairie drop in.. we can use all the help we can get.<P>BUTTERFLY<P>Still looking for that picture! Sorry, I didn't post a week-end joke..but here's one for today.<P>Even though Murph lives in the Seattle area, he still has never seen the Space Needle.<BR>That's because every time he gets there, he sees a sign that says "Space Needle Left", so he turns around and goes home.<P>[censored] from Texas
Hi [censored],<P>Thanks for explaining why Murph keeps wanting people to take <I>him</I> to the Space Needle!
<P>I will look for pictures again tonight when I get home.... I'm trying to find one that is not to bad.... don't want to scare anyone or break any computer screens LOL
<P>Hey TCF! Long time no see! Thanks for the cute poems.... maybe you can entice others to help us make it to 2K.<P>Gotta get back to work.... before the boss catches me goofin off again!<P>Smooches<BR>Busty
butterfly, Try good health food store for citric acid salts.<P>Sent my children off for a week - to x - so it may be a good week and it may not. We'll see.<P>You know, it just goes that way. The only guys who have hit on me in the last year were losers. Where are the decent guys?
Hey guys, just dropping by, as I do on occasion. Had something neat happen. My in-laws, who I haven't seen in five years, came to visit, and my FIL took me aside to tell me that I'll always be their daughter, divorce or not, they love me!
<P>Nice, huh!!!!!<P>Keep up the quest for 2K!!
hey ho guys,<P>just checking in... it took a while, I had 4/5 pages to read.......<P>I'm having a major panic attack at the moment, trying to get everything ready before I start work/training this coming Monday.<BR>When I'm stressed, my top lip swells. You should see the size of it........... it's huge. Sort of Melanie Griffith with collagen AND steroids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<P>My STBX (I always thought that stood for stud box!!!!!!!!) has been great. I burst into tears when he phoned this morning, and he said "don't cry, I don't like to hear you upset. You'll start me crying...."<P>This is from the man who when I left him almost 12 months ago said he felt ABSOLUTELY NOTHING when he saw me in tears. We had a picnic in the park on Saturday, and he chased the girls and I and put his arms around me, and gave me a bit of a tickle on the ribs. I had to walk away. I thought "what the heck is going on here". Then, I was going out Sat. night with girlfriends and he suggested I go back to his place afterwards and have coffee and port.......<BR>uummmmmmm, I don't think so. He then told me on Sunday that he waited up for me.<P>Oh boy, I can feel that slow spin starting again. D-day is 6 weeks yesterday for me, and I still feel as though I have to go through with it.<P>Anyway, Mitzi - we have something called the something needle !!!! here, but we can't climb it. I'm terrified of heights, but strangely enough, not of flying. I am terrified of rollercoasters, but I went to Movieworld on the Gold Coast and went on the Lethal Weapon ride. I decided this day that I had to confront a fear, any fear, and the rollercoaster was it. What a mad mad woman I am....... I was petrified, and came so close to peeing my pants!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't open my eyes the whole way. Apparently you go upside down about 24 times, go through the g-force (or whatever that thing is) and basically scare the bejesus out of yourself. What a hoot. I felt so good after I had done it, but I doubt I'll do it again. I want to try tandem jumping out of an aircraft next time.....<P>Butterfly - we can buy citric acid from the supermarket here. It's not actually an acid I don't think, it's more a preservative. I hope you can find it eventually - they're great. My girls love them, they have one or two a week.<P>Murph - I was already living in Melbourne when expo was here, so I missed most of it. I did get back once to visit my family, and there was so much going on, fabulous. I think I'm going to have to tell Mr Conrad Hilton that you're letting the side down. What sort of an establishment do you have there? It has the Hilton name but comes complete with spiders. I was going to ask [censored] to spring for a ticket for me to visit you, but I really don't feel I can now!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm with Mitzi where spiders are concerned.<BR>Living in Sydney was a nightmare for me with the funnelwebs. A friend of mine took her garbage bin out one night in bare feet. When she went to bring the bin in the next day, she had run one over with the wheels on the bin.... How close was that.... waaaaaaayyyyy to close for this little black duck.!!!!<BR>I lived in constant fear of the blighters...<P>Have to go, have so much to do. Just wanted to contribute, and try for the prize.<P>The weather here is unbelievable. It's winter, my baby is asleep in her pram outside with just a tshirt on, and the sky is blue and cloudless. Magnificent.<P>I did see the eclipse on Sunday night. It was great, and then last night I think we had a full moon. It was so beautiful.<P>have a great Tuesday, when you all wake up<P>love and hugs<P>Jo<P>
Crocodile Jo,<BR> What's a blighter? Is that an Aussie spider? <BR> We usually only get spiders in the house in the winter.Hey,spiders get cold,too! I really don't get that many.But,......one day,I was just sitting down with a cup of hot tea,and was just getting ready to take a drink,when I noticed a large hairy spider floating in my cup!
Death by hot tea!I have no idea how he/she got there.I could never drink out of that cup again.<P> I'm glad you got to see the eclipse;couldn't see it here,maybe next year.<BR> <BR>Hey,I went on that Lethal Weapon ride,too,in my living room!I have a video tape of rollercoaster rides from the perspective of riding them.I'm going to send a copy to Mitz,so when I take her to DisneyWorld,she'll be ready to hit all the big ones!!!
<P> Talk to you later,Melanie.<P> ~~Washington Murph<BR>
[censored],<BR> I just wanted to tell you that I do know where the Space Needle is.It's right where it was the last time I couldn't find it.<P> BTW;Texas,is that one of those states where men are men,and sheep are nervous?
<P> ~~Murph

Geesh!!! I'm gone for 9 hours and everyone drops by!!! <P>Hey Jo,<BR>I've actually heard of funnelwebs. I watch the Crocodile Hunter!!!! When I watch that show, I'm glad I'm here! LOL LOL<P>No roller coasters for this chick. Up too high, making loops upside-down, going too fast...yuk!!! I'll stand on the ground and wave to y'all!! LOL (My answer for everything!
)<P>Murph,<BR>I'll watch the video, but then I'll watch you ride the coasters!! LOL<P>Jodie
<BR>
Hey everyone!<P>Jo, Is the citric acid powder like a fruit preservative? The stuff to keep your peaches from turning brown?<P>Mitz,<BR>I hate spiders too, but I've gotten where I can kill the little (or big) buggers by myself now
. I think my landlord stired up a nest of black widows a month or so ago when he rebuilt one end of the porch. They've been coming in the house a lot lately.... EEEEEWWWWWWWW!!! <P>Murph/Mr. Hilton,<BR>I think I have an idea, who had the doggie downers from the 4th??? We could crush some over Mitz's cereal and then haul her up to the top! What ya think, Mitz??<P>What's the weather like there in late August or mid/late September? I'm still trying to decide on the dates for my vacation, and I know I want to rent a convertable and go crusing down the coast. <P>Ok, well, it's almost hot tub time, and then beddie by time. I'll check back in sometime in between.<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty Flutterby<BR>
Hey, has anyone hear of or used phonefree? It's a free program that lets you make calls from your PC... <P>I just talked to a friend of mine... the connection is a little shaky at times, kinda like using a cell phone, but it's free!<P>We could all sign up using our screen names & actually talk to each other.... whatdathink? <P>Time to go nighty-night....<BR>ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz<BR>Smooches,<BR>Busty!
Butterfly,<P>Remind not to eat or drink anything around you guys that I haven't prepared myself!!!!
<P>There is also a thing called dialpad. But I can't use any of them! (Darn Web TV
) I wanna talk too!!!!<P>Jodie
<BR>
Jodie,<BR>With PhoneFree, we can call your home phone and talk for free too
.... you just can't call us
.<BR>I think it even allows confrence calling. We could have a group call! I think that would be a blast.... just one thing though.... no mashers allowed
.<P>
Busty Flutterby
Butterfly,<P>Ok, this might sound dumb, but what's a masher??
(Could this be a blonde moment??)<P>That would be so cool!!!!!!! I've actually talked to 3 people from MB and met 1 of them in person (DanaB). Conference calling would be a blast. Almost like an MB convention!!<P>Who all would be interested??<P>Jodie
Busty,<BR> August and September are usually our nicest,and hottest months.I like to travel in Sept/Oct. because the kids are in school,and the rates are cheaper.<BR> <BR>You know,there's a rollercoaster in Calif.,I believe it's called the Colossus,that has one of the highest,and fastest drops.If we could get those doggy downers into Mitz,we could have them stop us at the top until she wakes up.As we gently nudge her awake,we could say"Look down there,Mitz!Oh,are we starting to move?"
<P> Oh,Hi Mitz,<BR> We were just talking about you!<BR> How's your week going? The weather's still nice here,so I've been getting out a little more.May go hit the beach.<BR> <BR>Phone-sex,er,conferencing might be fun.<BR> And since I have a voice like Fabio.....<BR> Honestly,I have a terrible phone voice!This lousy WA hayfever,and clogged sinuses,ya know.Don't you know,men have a harder time yakking on the phone than women?It's a proven fact.Why do you think they called it the Princess Phone?
<P> I would be interested in how to make cheap phone calls over the PC,though.<P> ~~Murph/BeachBum<BR>
Sorry Murph, Cedar Point Amusement Park in Ohio now has the highest and fastest coaster, called the Millenium Force. It drops about 300' and about 85 degrees(90 degrees would be straight down). I haven<BR>t ridden it yet, but my d has twice. We are supposed to go there for her birthday at end of the month.
Ohio? Hey,thanks Bob!<BR> That's even closer to Mitz's place.<BR> Would you mind helping Butterfly and I out?<BR> Mitz says she can hardly wait!
<P> ~~Murph<BR>
Murph, Butterfly and Bob,<P>This isn't fair!! You're all ganging up on me!!! LOL<P>I was in Ohio two years ago. Sea World!!!! Tried to get to Cedar Point but didn't have time. <P>My week has been a little crappy at work. The one guy I work with is giving me a hard time and saying vulgar things about me! I'm gonna have kick some butt soon! LOL LOL<P>Stop talking about me as if I'm not here!!!!
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Some guy is saying vulgar things about you?<BR> Do you want me to come over there,and drop him like a bad habit?<BR> "BOOM,BOOM,OUT GO THE LIGHTS!!!"<P> Why is he saying nasty things about you? Or did he peel his shirt off,and you laughed at him?<BR> <BR> We only tease ya cuz we like ya!!!
<BR> But I would love to see your face when we start that 300' drop!
<P> ~~Murph<BR> <BR> <p>[This message has been edited by Murphy (edited July 18, 2000).]
Jodie,<BR> Sorry,I didn't realize it was one of your"kids".I was thinking a regular worker.<P> I can't imagine dropping 300',either.I've been on the Jurassic Park Ride at Universal Studios.You're going through a building on a big raft,and just when you think T.Rex is going to take a bite out of you,you drop down a 85'slide,and hit the water like an explosion! A real heart-stopper,and that was only 85'!<P> I think most of the guys on this board have a small crush on you!
<BR> Dana,where are those pix?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>That's ok. I really wasn't too clear about who it was. But after I'm around him for a while, I feel like choking him. If I told him the sky was blue, he would argue with me and give me reason why it wasn't. LOL LOL<P>Oh, yeah! I'm the MB pin-up girl! Right! LOL LOL LOL My laugh for the day! LOL<P>Jodie
Hi guys,<P>Murph - blighters are the same as 'thing-a-me-bobs' or 'hooj-a-me-flips', in other words, they're 'things'. Does any of this make any sense at all?????<P>Butterfly - I think it must be. I actually used citric acid when I made lemon cordial once. I think it is a preservative. Do you want me to ask at our post office if I can send it by mail? I'll send some over if you want, if I can. It's not an acid like battery acid, well, you'd hope not... not if I've used it in cooking, and bath bombs etc etc etc.....<P>Mtizi - you don't really watch Crocodile Hunter do you?? Is that the blonde guy with the American wife, who have the crocodile farm? OHMYGOD, he is sooooooooooo embarrassing. He's as bad as crocodile bloody dundee. Paul Hogan sure has a lot to answer for...........<BR>I actually went past that crocodile farm about 2 weeks ago, with my Mum and my sister. We were heading up to the Sunshine Coast, which is where Noosa is, and his farm/park is there. We all commented about how embarrassing he is. No-one really does what he does, or speaks like he does. But everyone, and I mean everyone, else in the whole wide world thinks we all speak like him and chase crocodiles in our spare time. We don't. We speak proper English, not 'strine' which is what he speaks.<BR>Strine is what they call Australian language, when the person speaks with a drawl and/or doesn't pronounce words properly. It's awful.<BR>I shouldn't be so critical, but I was born in England with my mother almost speaking the Queen's English (not quite, but almost).<P>The weather is still divine here. They're doing controlled burn-offs, burning huge tracts of land in an attempt to stop bush fires in the summer. Yesterday was full of smoke and haze, but today is gorgeous. <P>I cooked muffins, smoked salmon, scrambled eggs and hollandaise sauce for breakfast this morning, for someone special......<BR>Had some beautiful pink tulips on the table, fresh orange juice, lovely coffee etc......<BR>what a great start to the day.<P>have to go now, have to catch up on general questions. I wish I had more time. I've got 3 baskets of laundry to be folded and put away sitting on the end of my bed, I haven't done the breakfast dishes yet, I've got to cook for my girls and I need a nap!!!!!!!<P>take care everyone, and big hugs<P>Jo
Bonnet Jo,<P>Whoa!!!!! You don't get away thay easy!!!! Someone special?????? Fess up, woman!!!!<P>My kids watch the Crocodile Hunter all the time. They love the show!!! Hey! He may be embarassing to you but he's entertainment for 3 very active boys! LOL LOL <P>Jodie
Hey BeachBum,<P>I think you'd have to use the doggie downers on me to get me on a roller coaster... I hate those things with a purple passion... I'd be joining Jodie...
uke (except Space Mountain at Disneyland... I liked that one).<P>I don't mind confined (as in inside) hights, but outdoor ones get me... I loved the Arch in St. Louis, but staning on the edge of the Grand Canyon got me. But flying over it in a helecopter was a BLAST!! Go figure! <P>Bob,<P>When is your D's Bday? Mine is the 31st. We could have a joint B-day party.... last year The Card Fairie threw a big bash for all of us who have b-days the last 2 weeks of July & the first week of Aug... there are a bunch of us. <P><BR>WOW, this phonefree is great... I'm talking to a friend right now.... this is cool!<P>gotta go for now, the typing is making the conversation break up.<P>Smooches,<BR>BB
Jo, <P>I'm with Mitz... FESS UP.... who is this <B><I>someone special???</B></I> <P>I will try to find the citric acid at the grocery store in the city near by... they might have it... I think I know what you are talking about now. If not, I'll let you know.
thanks.<P>Oh, I used to watch the crocidile hunter too... but I don't get animal planet anymore. It was funny... don't worry, I know everyone down there isn't as nutty as he is!
But a blond hunk with an Aussie accent..... melts my knees!
<P>Well folks, I'm gonna hit the sack... I've got a long day again tomorrow. :yawn:<P>'Nite everyone,<BR>B<P>PS... a masher is like a tame stalker (man who stares/hits on innocent women) ... LOL LOL
Jodie,<BR> Well,yes....MB poster girl! Send me a pix so I can print it,and attach it to my calendar!Does that make me a masher?<BR> Have a G'day!
<P> Busty,<BR> I'm with you.I liked Space MT,too.The outside ones bother me.Back to the Future ride was great,too.The Needle doesn't bother me,but a ferriswheel would.Isn't getting old fun? Tell us more about Phonefree,OK? Going to be HOT,HOT,HOT this week....upper 70's.
<P> ~~Murph/BB<P>
Murph,<P>I think that does make you a masher according to Butterfly's definition! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL<P>I have NEVER been on a ferris wheel. I did go on the glass, indoor elevator at the Cleveland Zoo's Rain Forest, and almost had a heart attack! LOL LOL LOL <P>It's raining here!
<P>Butterfly,<P>Phone free sounds like a good thing. One of these days I'm gonna have to get a computer so I can do all the neat stuff like that.<P>Jodie
<P>
I would think that you might find powdered citric acid at a good health food store.<P>Ny birthday is 7-26. Can I come to the party too? Last year I got no - repeat, no - birthday presents. Not from my mom, my sister, or my children. I wouldn't even have gotten a cake if we had not been visiting my mother and my son, God bless that little boy, realized at dinner time that there was no cake (we had leftover cake from the cat's party, though) and suddenly looked at my mom and said we had to have a cake. She took him to the store and they bought me one. That was the extent of my celebrating last year. <P>The guy I'm dating fasts on Wednesdays which is when my bithday is this year. Who knows?<P>May I be a co-honoree? Please??
Howdy folks!<P>Looks like I'm the 1st to post for July 19th, do you think we'll ever reach 2,000 ?<P>Been so busy the last couple of days, didn't even have a chance to open un MB yesterday, so am catching up on all the replies.<P>Ok,ok you talked me into it....here's the latest blonde joke:<P>A woman walks into the Doctor's office and tells him she hurts all over. The Doctor says "that's impossible". She says "look, when I touch my arm it hurts, ouch! When I touch my leg it hurts, ouch! When I touch my head it hurts, ouch! See, I told you I hurt all over".<P>The Doctor then replies "I'll bet you are a 'natural blonde'". "How did you know, the girl replies?"<P>The Doctor smiled and replied "Because you have a broken finger".<P>Here's one I am dedicating to Bonnet/Jo from the Land Down Under<P>I got a list of things that were actually printed on products as label instructions showing that we are doomed to stupidity.<P>On an American Airlines packet of nuts:<BR>"Instructions: open packet, eat nuts".<P>Hey...I heard Murph bought some Nytol Sleeping Pills and the label said "Warning: may cause drowsiness".<P>Hey Mitzi hope you're doing ok and also to the rest of my friends.<P>Later...<P>[censored] from Texas
[censored],<BR> I hear it's soooo HOT in Texas,that the lawyers feel right at home!<P> Here's a joke even I fiqured out:<P> A blonde decides to try horseback riding,even though she's never done it before.<P>She mounts the horse,unassisted,and the horse immediately springs into motion.It gallops at an even and steady pace,but the blonde begins to slip from the saddle.<BR> <BR>In terror,she grabs for the horse's mane,but can't seem to get a firm grip.She tries to throw her arms around the horse's neck,but she slides down the side of the horse anyway.<P> The horse gallops along,seemingly impervious to it's slipping rider.Finally,giving up her frail grip,the blonde attemps to leap away from the horse.Unfortunately,her foot has become entangled in the stirrup.She is now at the mercy of the horse's pounding hooves as her head is struck against the ground,over and over.<P> As her head is battered against the ground,she is mere moments away from certain death,when to her great fortune............<BR> Frank,the Walmart greeter,sees her and unplugs the horse.<P> Jodie,<BR> It's beach-weather here.Come on over!
<P> ~~Murph/BlondeBeachBum
Hey Mitzi and Butterfly - did I say someone special?<BR>I meant, I umm meant, now, what was I saying..................<P>Maybe 'special' was too strong a word, but he is someone that COULD become a bit special. I've known him for a little while, but it's nothing hot or heavy. He is in the same boat as I am, and as we all are (does nobody stay married any longer??) so between us we have SOOOOO much baggage. The thing I like about him most of all is that we can talk for hours. And hours. And hours. Neither of us are under any illusions about what is happening in both our lives, and that makes me feel quite comfortable with him. The fact that if I want to talk about my stbx (I always thought that stood for studbox!!!!!!! LOL) I can, and the same for him. We do spend some lovely evenings tho. I don't let him come over until my children are in bed, as I don't want them to think that there is 'someone' in my life. We never see each other on the weekend unless it is the evening, so as you can see, we are taking it very slowly......<P>That's my 'fession, and my story, and I'm stickin' to it..........................<P>[censored] - thanks for that. I had an email from a friend in Kuwait who listed different labels from all parts of the world. The funniest one was for a hemmoroid cream from Japan. Had about 6 lines of instruction, and then said "Be Quiet" at the end. I had tears with that one. I'll try and find it and post it here.<P>I like the joke about the blonde who hurts all over, tee hee.<BR>The one that made me laugh tho' was the horse one. I can just see ME......... LOL<P>Well, as usual I have 2 mins to be here. I've got my car in for a service today, and they've just phd and said I need new brake pads. It's a major service, so read $$$$$, and now it's an extra $200 for brakes. But I figured I can't really do without brakes......<BR>Then I'm out to the airport with a friend who has her second interview to be a f/a, and THEN I have to go down the coast to see my parents. I'm spending the night, so I'll get a homecooked roast meal.......yay....<P>love and hugs to all<P>Jo

Ok Murphy.....<P>I'm blonde....work at Walmart.....hey they swore they would never tell anyone what happened to me. Really, my foot was not caught in the stirrup....just someones chewing gum that caught me up.<P>Nancy
Jo,<P>It's nice that you have someone to spend time with! Don't try to defend yourself here. I'm ok with it!
<P>[censored],<P>I check in everyday to read the blonde jokes so I can laugh at Murph. Thanks for not disappointing me!
<P>Nancy,<P>OMG! You're still around! I hope things are going good for you.<P>Murph,<BR>It rained all day here!

Way to go Murph my man!<P>By the way....I heard the horses are tamer at K-Mart.<P>Bonnet/Jo<P>Thanks for posting that list of label instructions....that was the same list my daughter had sent me..except yours had more on it.<P>Can you believe companies would actually do that?<P>Bonnet/Jo - I'm sure you heard about the stewardess who approached this good looking man and said "Cofee, Tea or Me?"<P>Hey Butterfly! How you been? Glad you're still with us....looks like it's gonna be a long grind to hit 2,000.<P>Mitzi<BR>Can you believe it? I guess I have totally corrupted Murph, he told a blonde joke!<P>Here is one for you. Did you hear about the hillbilly from West Virginia who went to see a lawyer about divorcing his wife?<P>The lawyer asked him "Do you have grounds?" The hillbilly replied "Yeh...about 50 acres".<P>"No, I mean does she beat you up?" replied the Lawyer. "Naw....I get up every morning before she does" replied the hillbilly.<P>"Do you have a grudge?" asked the Lawyer. "Nope, we've got a car port" replied the hillbilly.<P>Have a blessed day to each of you, my friends.<P>[censored] from Texas
Mitzi<P>Hey! Thanks for the fast reply.....guess you're not working today??<P>I lived in Extreme Western North Carolina for 12 years (on the Tennessee/Georgia border) and people had the mentality that the NC state line ended at Asheville, some 2-1/2 hours east of us.<P>They thought everyone who lived West of Asheville (in the mountains where I lived) were ignorant, bare-footed hicks. I do not like that sort of mentality.<P>That is why I love that scripture verse in <BR>I Samuel (Old Testament) that says: "God sees not as man sees; for man looks on the OUTWARD appearance, but God looks on the HEART".<P>You have a great day!<P>[censored] from Texas
[censored],<P>Sadly, I do have to work today!
I work Mon-Fri from 3pm-11pm. But, I do have weekends off!
<P>I've gotten so used to the hick jokes that they don't even bother me! I actually laugh at them myself. Some of them are just soooo hilarious. <P>Have a great day!!<BR>Mitzi
[censored],<BR> I actually told a joke that you haven't heard? <BR> Busty,<BR> No,I don't golf.Fiqured I'd save that for retirement.<BR> Nancy,<BR> The horse at my Walmart seems pretty tame...<BR> Jodie,<BR> So is it true?Do you really drive a old pickup with a gun rack,a CB,and a [censored] dog in the back? Send me some of that homemade moonshine,will ya?
<P> ~~Murph/Jed C.
Murph,<P>Actually...I tease my brother about being Jeff Fox's inspiration! LOL LOL If his porch collapsed,it would kill 7 dogs!! He actually has 7 hunting dogs! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL And the truck, CB and gun rack! LOL LOL LOL LOL <P>And I do wear shoes! Have all my teeth, don't have an outhouse, ain't pregnant all the time, And my sons don't have the names Billy Bob, or Bobby Joe! LOL LOL<P>Jodie/Ellie May
<BR>
Jo,<BR>I've got a joke for you.... or maybe some advice! LOL<P>A Lousy Flight<P>A stewardess was getting very annoyed by three little children on the plane. They had been bugging her since take-off, complaining that they were hungry, or bored, or tired, or thirsty, or needed to go to the bathroom, and whatever else you could imagine a small child commenting and complaining about.<P>Finally, the stewardess had had enough. <P>The very next time the children said that they were bored, the stewardess told them to "go play outside".<BR>
<P>I'll see you all this weekend... Have a good Friday!<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty<P>
Ellie May,<BR> OMIGOSH!
<BR> And all this time,I pictured you as a backwoods Jodie(didja see"Nell"?)sitting in her rockin'chair on the porch,drinking'shine,and smoking a corncob pipe! Saying things like"Aw,shucks","Vittles are a'cookin'",and "Im'a gonna git them varmits!",while loading up your shotgun!<P> You better hurry up and send those pix so I can change my perception!
<P> ~~Murph/Jethro Bodine
Jethro,<P>Howdy!! Yes I did see Nell! I loved that movie! I am more of a JF than an Ellie May. <P>But as you know, I am a farm girl...making hay, feeding the cows, planting a garden. But...sorry...no shot gun. That would make me a "granny"! LOL LOL LOL (Want some possum stew?? LOL LOL LOL)<P>Mitz/Jodie/Nell/Ellie May
Jodie,<BR> I guess I don't really know any farm girls.<BR> The girls around here drive 75 down the freeway in their SUV,with a cigarette in one hand,and a cellphone in the other,checking their lipstick every two minutes,and saying,"My hair,just look at my hair!"<P> So what do farm girls do for fun in a small town,besides feed the chickens and milk the cows?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Hell if I know! I spend my time taking care of my kids, working and on the internet!
I guess that's my fun! LOL There isn't really anything to do here. Unless you want to go to bars...we have a lot of those! LOL <P>Seriously, we have a couple of lakes and a river. We do a lot of camping, fishing...stuff like that. When my oldest son was 8, he caught a 26" catfish! (I'm a proud mom!) If you want to do anything more, you have to drive a couple of hours. <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> That's a big catfish.<BR> I had catfish in a restaurant once.It was pretty good the way they cooked it.<BR> It's nice to just relax once in a while,too.Sometimes I'll come home from work,and lay out on my back deck,do a little reading,or watch the birds.<BR>I built a nice deck out back with a lot of plantings around it that is very private.Also has a rustic fountain so you can listen to the splashing water.When I get my scanner working,I'll send you a pix(I'll try to stay out of the way!).<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>My kids eat a lot of catfish. I don't care for it though. Too "fishy" tasting if that makes sense! LOL <P>I guess I'm gonna have to do the landscaping here. Just never seem to have the time. Hey! I do have rose bushes and a mimosa (sp?) tree! I had a cherry tree but it died. And if I plant flowers, the rabbits or deer eat them. Just can't win! LOL LOL<P>My friend has had a scanner for about a year and still hasn't gotten it completely figured out. <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Rabbits,deer,maybe bears?<BR> Mostly slugs,and spiders here.I guess I'll have to send the YardGod over to help you!<P> We eat trout,salmon,and cod for the most part.You'll find they have a great salmon dinner up on the Needle.Worth the trip!<P> My scanner copies and prints,but attachments to e-mail don't always go through.Maybe a server problem? I might guinea-pig one to you.<P> Well,it's off to bed.Tomorrow's Friday,but I'm working the weekend again.Big $$$$!<BR> Maybe I'll take a trip to Ohio to ride that 300'rollercoaster......wanna come?<P> Nite-nite!<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I don't care what they're serving...I'll still stand and wave to ya! LOL<P>We do have the occassional black bear that passes thru on the mountain behind my house. I've only heard one and saw 2 after my brother and dad shot them. My oldest goes bear hunting with my brother but hasn't had the chance to shoot any yet. He's got a sniper's aim though! Not too bad for a 10 yr old. <P>As for the roller coaster...everyone chime in here...I'll wave at ya! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL<P>Sure just use me as a guinea-pig! <P>Jodie
<P>Nite-nite!
Hey Ho guys,<P>I'mmmmm baa-aack.............<P>had a lovely roast dinner with my parents, they got the children up early and went to the beach to see the sunrise, and I slept in til 9 am. How beautiful.<P>God, and I thought I was the first one to ever say "coffee, tea or me Sir?"........<P>oh well, we're a bit slow down here !!!!!!!!<P>I'll be away all weekend doing my first aid course. It goes from 8 am to 5 pm both days of the weekend. My last weekend too.... what a pill........<BR>have to go and get the kids out of the bath,<BR>I think they've just washed the walls!!!<P>Hey Mitzi - I didn't for a minute think that I have to explain or apologise for seeing someone. But I guess I do still feel a little guilty (isn't that bizarre considering) and maybe that comes through in my posts<P>love and hugs to all<P>Jo
Bonnet Jo,<P>Boy, do your kids sound like mine!! I went in the bathroom one time when my middle son was about 3 or 4, and he was sitting on the toilet with a spray bottle of bathroom cleaner. It seems he was trying to help me clean and had sprayed the cleaner all over the walls (while he was using the bathroom), and the floor. Talk about a mess! LOL LOL<P>Please don't think that I wanted you to apologize! You are in the same boat as me...getting divorced and actually wanting it (if I read your posts right). There's nothing wrong with a little friendship. <P>Mitzi
Good Morning....just checking in!<P>I love that stewardess joke telling the kids to "go play outside"<P>Mitzi<P>Boy, Murph is really diggin' at you for being a farm girl....but I know it's all in fun.<P>Murph<P>On the serious side, you do have an excellent sense of humor and you express yourself very well....I love the Seattle girls driving 75 mph, cigarettes/cell phones/lipstick and complaining about their hair.<P>Everyone have a great week-end!<P>[censored] from Texas<P>P.S.<P>Here's a funny "non-blonde" joke:<P>Did you hear about the "dislexic, agnostic" who had "insominia"?<P>He stayed awake all night, wondering if there really was a 'dog'.<P>
Guess who?????<P>Man, some of the "General" board posts are dissn this Giga thread.<P>How are you guys, Mitz, Murph, D from T, Butter, Lora and the rest?<P>Miss you guys.<P>Tell me the haps.
DAISY!!!!<P>Welcome back!!! I saw the posts by one person in GQ. Not a major problem, just don't want to start a riot..<P>Pretty much the same old, same old here. Work, kids and more work. The fun never stops!! LOL<P>Come back more often! We miss you!!!<P>Jodie/Mitz
Gaul'Dang You,Daisy,stay in one spot!<BR> I have a hard time chasin' you all over the board with this ShowerMassager!
<P> [censored],<BR> Yeah,actually had a Seattle girl give me the one-finger salute when I smiled at her.I'm going back to Mexico where walking wallets...I mean men,are appreciated.<P><BR> Crocodile Jo,<BR> Can you get discount tickets for all your friends here?I'll be needing one to Mexico,one for Kaui,one for Ohio(300'coaster,Jodie!),and two for Florida,so Jodie and I can hit all the big rides!<BR> G'Day!<P> Jodie,<BR> Didn't realise I was picking on you that much(ya'll ain't mad at me,are ya?).<BR> You're not the only one with phobias.Seems like everyone I know has at least one.I'm probably have more phobias relating to people and social situations than animals,bugs,snakes,spiders,heights,dark places,ghosts,being alone,or being raped by a bunch of beatiful naked women.Oh,wait a minute,scratch that last one(had a Blond moment).....<P> So,how was your week,overall?
<P> ~~Murph <P> P.S. If KenB has a "Real Big Problem" with this here thread,tell him to stick it in his ear!
<p>[This message has been edited by Murphy (edited July 21, 2000).]
Murph,<P>So...you figured out who the "one person" who didn't like us was! LOL LOL<P>No, you know I'm not mad at you. I'm a big girl, I can take a little teasing!<P>You know, you're really getting pushy about the coasters!
NO WAY!!! (Unless you want puked on by a red-headed Jodie! LOL)<P>I have too many phobias too name...but heights are the only ones I have a major problem with.<P>I'M DONE WORKING FOR THE WEEK!!!!!!<P>Jodie

Murph,<P>I keep leaving notes here for Dana to hurry up with the pix and she's just taking her sweet time! LOL LOL Well....we have to make you wait for it so it will be more worth your while!!!! LOL LOL<P>So, if I read correctly...Bill gets pix of me and Dana and when a woman wins, she gets a picture of you??? Not hardly fair...you guys get 2 for the price of one! LOL<P>Jodie
LMAO!!!!!<P>Too much fun here!!!<P>A Picture??? I won???<P>I never win????<P>I'll chunk in a pic Murph, so the ladies won't feel slighted.<P>B
Jodie,<BR> And on top of that,Bill gets a pix of two beautiful,enchanting Goddess's with sex appeal oozing out of every pore,while some poor woman gets a pix of an not-so-hot,broken-down,miserable,old Murph!
<P> Guess I'm gonna have to lean on Dana.<BR> Do you have her phone#?<BR> I could keep reminding her at 3AM everyday!<P> "Good Morning,Dana....Again!"<P> <BR> ~~Murph
YIPPEE ladies!!!!<P>The prizes have now become fair!!! Bill has offered a picture of him to go along wtih the "Murph in the buff doing yardwork" prize!!! YEEHAW!!!! (Sorry, just a little of the redneck showing in me! LOL)<P>Jodie
Murph,<P>You are WAY to kind! LOL LOL We're just a couple of average looking young women!<P>I actually do have Dana's # somewhere!!!! <P>Jodie
WHOA!!!! I never said anything about yard work completely starkers....What will my neighbors think....Murph don't be so hard on yourself....surely your not miseable and all that broke down.<P><BR>B
WHOA!!!! I never said anything about yard work completely starkers....What will my neighbors think....Murph don't be so hard on yourself....surely your not miseable and all that broke down.<P><BR>B
Bill,<P>Murph was the one who made the deal! If you have a problem with holding up your end of the bargain, take it up with him.<P>No, Murph's not broken down and miserable. He's the Mel Gibson look-alike Yard God!
<P>Mitz/Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Right now,I'd settle for a couple of average-looking,young women.
<BR> <BR> Bill,<BR> The only reason Jodie keeps writing to me is she thinks I look like Mel Gibson.Who started that anyway?..."LORA!"<BR> Who ever heard of a Danish-Welsh Mel?<BR> I believe he came from Crocodile Jo's neck of the woods!<BR> I am a YardGod,though
<P> ~~Murph/YG
Murph,<P>Just remember...over 18! LOL LOL LOL<P>No, I keep posting here to try and see how long everyone will keep this thread going. And it gives me something to laugh about during my boring days! LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Gosh,now I'm insulted.<BR> And here I thought you truly cared for me,and that we had made a"connection".
<BR>(in other words,you had the hots for me!!!)
<P> Just for that,you can forget that ride on the 300' rollercoaster.I'll take Daisy instead!
<P> Of course,over 18.Why do you think I cruise the jr college's instead of the highschools?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Wait! Don't be insulted!!! It's your sense of humor that makes me laugh!!!
<P>I will let Daisy go on the roller coasters with you though. Then she can be the one to puke on you and I'll look even better! LOL LOL<P>You're still the Yard God!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> It's Ok,I'll get over it(sniff,sniff).<BR> <BR> I did meet this beautiful blond while walking my dog.She had her dog,so we let them off to play together(I mean the dogs played!).We walked and talked for about half an hour,so I finally asked if she would like to have coffee sometime.But she said she was involved with someone.
Fiqures!<BR> So I said,"Is this deadbeat gonna marry you or what?" Why won't she talk to me anymore?<P> Actually,I didn't say that,and I still run into her from time to time,and talk.<BR> Maybe her BF will dump her?
<P> Well,it's off to bed.Some of us gotta work tomorrow/today.Big Boeing$$$$$,you know!<BR> <BR> Let's go to Ohio,Daisy!
<P> Catch you later,Jodie/SAOFEP<P> ~~Murph/Sleepy
Murph,<P>Oh sure! Leave that big abbreviation at the end and don't tell me what it means! Now I'll have to wait until tomorrow to find out! Completely unfair!!!
<P>Go get your beauty rest and don't work too hard!
<P>Does this mean I can't go to Ohio?
<P>Jodie...who has no idea what SAOFEP (??) means!!!
<BR>
Hello fellow Giga-threaders!<P>So you guys hooked William J into helping, huh?<P>So Murph, are you enjoying the lightning and thunder today.

Wallpaper city!<P>How is everyone over here anyhoo?<P>Daisy Jo
Hey Daisy,<BR> I see they got this thing running again.<BR> Thought maybe this gigathread screwed something up,but it's still here.<BR> <BR>Yeah,I saw the lightning yesterday evening.I worked today,so didn't see much,but heard some thunder.I heard they couldn't get the lid shut on our new state-of-the-art stadium!<P> Did I really"promise"you a pix?HMmmmm...don't recollect.So,when do I get a pix of Daisy Jo for my desktop,huh???<BR> Fair is fair,but you'll probably line the birdcage with mine!<P> How are things going for you?<BR> Working on that Mr T.stare for court?("Hey,Fool")<P> ~~Murph<P>

<P><BR>Mitz, I'll go to Ohio with you... as long as you let me go to Dresden. Have you ever heard of Longaberger Baskets?? Well, anyway, I sell them, and that's where our home office is, and lots of great shops & stuff! The worlds largest basket is there (it's the building), and they just finished a world class golf corse.
We could do some serious shopping, and maybe even scope out some Omish guys
.<P>JoJo, Where were we being disded??? I just want to read about it... I promise to be nice.<P>Well, I'm gonna go turn in now.... It's now 4:15 AM MST, and I'm suposed to go swimming in about 4 hours... I'll catch ya'll later!<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty TTF & CC'sDP<BR>(more initials for Jodie

Ok,Jodie(sex appeal oozing from every pore!),<BR> I forgive you.
<BR> And here I thought we were........"Soulmates"
<BR> No,I'm not ignoring you,but had to work the weekend.Just got home.Pretty warm day,how about there?<P> So,how do your legs feel after pushing around that mower? Gives them a little workout,huh?<P> You and Busty going to Ohio to hit that 300' coaster?
<P> Busty/CCDP/TTF(The Tooth Fairy?),<BR> How are you? I didn't know Chubby was still alive.How old is he now?<BR> While we're namedropping,guess who I ran into years ago?<BR>Wolfman Jack! <P>That's right,I was at a car show,and he was one of the celebrities.It was pretty crowded,and he came through the crowd,and ran into me,literally!He was a big guy,almost knocked me over(guess I should of sued$$$$$).<P> I wonder if Bill got his pix,yet?<P> ~~Murph/FFRIWJ
<BR>
Murph,<P>Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!
<BR>(and now I know what the initials stand for!!)<P>Actually, my legs are fine...but my arms hurt.
But it did feel good though. And I could see what I accomplished. <P>I told Busty I would go to Ohio with her, but not to ride the coaster. We're going to spy on you and Daisy Jo! LOL LOL<P>Jodie "Soulmate"
<BR>
Jodie/SM,<BR> I saw that movie a while back.Old Mel really knows how to deal with the bad guys.<BR>I just watched"American Beauty".Talk about a strange movie.A guy going through a MLC,lusting after a teenager.I like'em young,but not that young!<P> Haven't heard from Daisy Jo.Must be out partying.Those wild blondes......<P> See,a little yardwork is good for you.You'll be in shape in no time.<BR>Probably could use a World Famous,Danish Deep-Tissue Massage,though,huh?
<P> ~~Murph/Mel?<P>
Jeese-o-pete....you guys are still here.....LOL<P>I did the yard work thing this weekend...too bad no one took pictures...LOL<P>Great fun w/Chubby Checker...too cool.<P>I'm still waitng for Rebecca Romijn to call

Murph,<P>What do you mean, I'll be in shape in no time?? I'm already in shape!
(I'm just too lazy to do it on a regular basis! LOL)<P>The massage table is all set up and waiting. I'm first in line. Who's next??<P><BR>Bill,<BR>It's actually been so long since my brother has seen me use a law mower, that he went in his house and got his camera. (I gave him the one-finger salute!)<P>Jodie/Mitz
<BR>
Jodie,<BR> Well,Lora and Daisy are closer than you,so they'll probably be first in line!<BR> And here I was complaining about the women around here giving me the one-finger salute!<BR> Must be a national thing.
<BR> I couldn't believe it,I overslept this morning.I was actually a little late.So,I'm going to hit the hay early tonight.<P> Have your brother send me that lawnmowing pix....Jodie-the Redhaired Lawn Goddess,all hot and sweaty!
THO!<P> Catch ya'll later!<P> ~~Murph/YGZZZZZZ<BR>
Murph/Sleepyhead,<P>I don't think so!!! Lora and Daisy will have to wait in line!!
<P>I only flipped him off cause he's my brother. I was smiling in the picture!! <P>Go get your beauty rest!!
<P>Nite-nite,<BR>Jodie
<P>
Jodie,<BR> Just got out of a hot bath with my ShowerMassager.
<BR> <BR>Ok,I'll take a pix of you smiling while flipping off your brother.
<P> At my age it's not called beauty sleep anymore.
<P> Have a great week!
<P> ~~Murph/ZZZZZZZ<P>
Finally my name comes up in reference to a massage instead of some work! I am ready! Did you see the thread about the person who was almost having an EA with her massage therapist? I go to a woman once in awhile and it feels so good to be touched by another human that I sometimes wonder if I am having an affair with her! <P>Have a good week everyone.<BR>Lora
Lora,<P>OMG!! You actually showed up!! How've you been?? Since Murph will have you doing so much work for him, I might let you go first for the massage...maybe!
<P>Yeah Murph, you're ancient! I think you're about the oldest person I know! NOT!! <P>Have a good day everyone!!!<P>Mitz
Howdy all!<P>We might eventually hit the big 2k after all.<BR>We're on the way to 1,400<P>Nobody commented on the last several jokes I've shared.....were they that bad????<P>[censored] from Texas
Hi [censored]!!<P>How was the weekend? <P>Even if I don't comment on all of your jokes, I love reading them!! Got any more WV jokes???
<P>Did you read what Chris posted on General Questions about How do you know who to marry? It's hilarious!!!! And WhenIFindTheTime posted here about Man vs. Woman. It's hilarious too!!!<P>Mitzi
<p>[This message has been edited by Mitzi (edited July 24, 2000).]
Mitzi<P>You have always been so good to respond. Thanks for the uplift.<P>Had a fun week-end...thanks for asking.<P>God bless you......<P>D from T
Jodie,<BR> Are you still out pushing that mower around?<BR> Maybe you should put some headlights on that thing so you can see what you're doing!
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>NO WAY!! I think I'm done mowing for the summer! LOL LOL Headlights on a pushmower...that sounds like something my brother would do! LOL LOL<P>How've you been?<P>Jodie
AH HA!!!!You are there!!<BR> You must live in front of your WebTV!!!
<P> I'm OK.Another warm day-80'.Hot for us,anyways.The house is still warm.How's the weather there?<P> ~~Murph<P>
Murph,<P>OH so this was just a little trick to bring me out of hiding! I see how you work now! LOL LOL<P>I'm here except when I work. And if I'm doing something else around the house, it's at least turned on so I can hear the little beep when I get mail! LOL LOL<P>It's pretty chilly here now. I actually had to wear a jacket this evening. But it's been about 75 during the day. CHILLY!!!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> I guess 75 would be chilly when you're used to 90'.Our best months are coming up,(Aug-Sept)so I guess I had better make the best of them.You have any plans?<P> Thinking about going to Palm Springs around Christmas time to visit my folks new home.<BR> Plus it's not too far from Wally World!<BR> Think my 79 yr-old father would go on Space Mountain with me?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I have plans to work so far.
There's a small amusement park about 2 hours away from here in PA. I'm gonna take the boys there one Saturday. It's an all day event for us. We go at least once a year. <P>I want to take them to Blackwater Falls too. It's a state park about an hour from here. Since I work all week, I try to think of things to do with them on the weekends. Plus I'm going to look for a car too!
<P>You'd stand a better chance of getting your dad to ride than you would getting me to! LOL LOL LOL <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> OK,I have a great idea!<BR> I'll stick the dog in a daycare,you put the kids in the kennel,and we'll meet down there,and hit all the big rides!<BR> Won't that be fun!
Let me know!<P> So,what kind of car you looking for?<BR> Not a 4X4 pickup with a gunrack,and a Pitbull in it,I hope!<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>LOL LOL Honestly, some days my kids act like they belong in a kennel! LOL LOL LOL <P>Not the BIG rides, the FUN rides!<P>I have no idea what I'm looking for. Just something newer that doesn't have a lot of miles on it. And no nothing with a gunrack, either.
But something I can tie three rotten kids in the back seat of. <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> You might pick up a Consumer Reports guide to used cars.It would let you know what's a good,reliable car.Or van.Or SUV.Or 4X4
<P> Have you ever looked at Discovery.com?<BR> Has some pretty interesting stuff to look at.I'm always looking at new websites that might be fun to check out....<P> No,not THOSE websites!
Besides,you have to pay to get into most of those!<P> ~~Murph/DOM
Murph,<P>My brother works for one of the car dealerships here. He works in the body shop at a Chevrolet garage and the owner also has a Ford dealership. He's been checking things out for me. Plus he's good at getting them to come down on their price!
<P>I have looked at discovery.com a few times. But sometimes I have to let the kids look at stuff too! LOL I also do a lot of genealogy stuff on the internet. I've found out a lot of neat stuff about my family. <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> That's good you have some help buying a car.Sometimes they take advantage of a single woman,"This little number has your name written all over it,SweetHeart!"
<P> Genealogy sounds interesting to look into.Maybe you can steer me towards some sights?<BR> <BR>But,now the YardGod has to get his beauty,er....his old fart sleep!<P> Have a good day tomorrow/today.Nite-Nite!<P> ~~Murph/DOMASO
Murph,<P>I, too, am going to bed. Stbx is coming early in the morning to get the boys for a couple of hours!
I guess it's about time he saw them!<P>There are a lot of genealogy sites on the internet. Anytime you want to know about them, let me know.<P>At my age, is it still considered beauty rest??<P>Nite-nite,<BR>Jodie
The Man vs. Woman post was one of the funniest things I've read in a long time.<P>By the way, where's the birthday party? I've seen lots of posts from people who are having birthdays soon. Mine is tomorrow. Last year I didn't get a single present. Not from my mom, sister, children. No one.<BR>I need to be on the honoree list. <P>But we can't have the party tomorrow. I won't be near a computer. What about another day? What sounds good to the other B.D. people? Give me a date and I'll check my calendar.
Yes we do need a party. Today is mine. I'm 39. My MIL was the first to call and wish me a happy day.
Happy Birthday to YOU!<BR>Happy Birthday to YOU!<BR>Happy Birthday dear YOOOOOOUUUUUU!<BR>Happy Birthday to YOU!!!<P><A HREF="http://www3.bluemountain.com/cards/box4253i/jjh2akjjiimdvdk.htm" TARGET=_blank>Weirded Out ~~ 39 & Holdin'!</A><P><A HREF="http://www3.bluemountain.com/cards/box4253u/ssw2fkyyrsjiybx.htm" TARGET=_blank>Mitzi ~~ Better late than never!

I'm hosting a party again this year (since it's my Birthday too), so drop on by and have some cake and ice cream (keep an eye on Murpy ~ I've heard about him and his ice cream
).<P>Hugs & Kisses Everyone,<BR>TCF<P><P>------------------<BR>If you have a special occasion, or see someone here who could use a card... please e-mail me at card_fairie@hotmail.com. <BR>Hugs & Kisses,<BR>TCF
Friday sounds ok to me. An all-day internet party? Could be a novel experience. We need a birthday/e-mail address list so we can send each other free cards. After all, last year I didn't get a single present - so I deserve lots of cards this year. <P>If there's such a list, where do I sign up? I can never remember where I saw what list. <P>Card faerie - thanks for the wishes for my cake. But I'm much more worried about Prince Charming. Too hard to keep our hands off each other. Don't want him to turn into a rat.<p>[This message has been edited by cinderella (edited July 25, 2000).]
Friday Night Party!!!<BR> Oh Boy,I'll bring the ice cream!
<P> Maybe Mitz and Dana can share their pictures with us then.<BR> Wouldn't that be nice?
<P> Jodie,<BR> OMIGOSH!<BR> You're 31?<BR> I didn't know you were that OLD!
<BR> And here I thought I was chatting with a hot,little 20-something!!!<BR> <BR> You just never know who you're talking to on these darn things,right???<P> ~~Murph/Fabio
Thanks Mitz, thanks TCF -<P>I've a big non-event birthday today, except that an OLD friend called and I unfortunately had to fill her in on my stuff. The hard part is that I'm telling the story of my disloyal husband to a friend whose H has been screwing around for a long time, and I know it and have never said anything to her. He gave her g-herpes, but somehow convinced her she got it when the kids had a bad case of chicken pox. So that was hard. <P>I'm happy and feeling pretty strong. I'm dancing and skipping around the neighborhood. Have laringitis (sp?) tho so can't sing for beans. See ya'll Friday.
Hi all,<P>Back from Europe, wow I recommend going to the running of the bulls quite a spectacle. Glad to be home was gone almost a month. Sounds like you are all doing well even having party's. Weather here is beautiful. That always happens to me leave town and it stops raining. It was good to get away. I haven't thought much about my impending divorce. Bonded with my bf and had a killer time seeing plays in London and fireworks in Paris. Caught the last showing of the Graduate with Kathleen Turner. She appeared nude and she is definitely showing her age. Well thought I would check in. Happy b day to all those celebrating. <P>Ger
Gerri,<P>Good Lord!! Welcome back!! I thought maybe you decided to stay in Europe! <P>As you can see, we haven't stopped having fun!
<P>Mitz/Jodie
Heya,Jodie,<BR> <BR>Just teasing you again,ya know!
<BR> Actually,you're about BoyToy's age.Maybe I should set you two up?<P> No,you're definitely not as old as this old fart! <P> What do you mean,you don't have a life?<BR> You're breathing,ain't ya?
<P> ~~Murph<BR> <BR>
Murph,<P>I know you're teasing! If you weren't teasing me, I'd think there was something wrong with you!
<P>Ok, so I do have a life. A rather boring one though! LOL Wake up, take care of the kids, go to work, pick up the kids, hang around here for a while and go to bed. Wake up and start all over...DULL!!!<P>And just so you know, I don't mind you teasing and joking around with me. You have a great sense of humor!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> That's good to know SOMEBODY appreciates me(ya hear that,Daisy!).<P> Yeah,life does get pretty boring.Same thing here.Just beautiful women lounging around my hot tub all evening.You get so tired of that!<P> I guess I need to take up an action-packed hobby.Like bowling....<P> OK,what else do you like to do?(when you're not on-line?) <P> ~~Murph/Hef<BR>
Murph,<P>Yeah, I'm sure you're just soooo sick of the women! LOL LOL<P>Hmmmmm...what do I like to do?? I've forgotten what I like to do. We always did what stbx liked to do. I used to like to read, draw,(yes, I'm creative! LOL). I do like taking the kids camping and fishing. I just haven't taken the time to do things I like for about 11 years. H and the kids came first. Gee, I sound kinda pathetic!! <P>Maybe I need to get out more! LOL LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Hey Gerri,<P> Welcome back.
<BR> Please tell us all about your trip.I promise I won't get bored.I'll probably never make it over there.<P> Not sure about that running with the bulls-bull-[censored],I've seen"City Slickers"!!<P> You have nude pix of Kathleen Turner?<BR> Go ahead and post'em,OK?
<P> <BR>~~Murph/DOM(Dirty old man)<P> <P>
Jodie,<BR> OK,let me rephrase that.<BR> What did you like to do BEFORE you were married?<BR> <BR> ~~Murph
Jodie,<BR> Chased the bad boys,huh?<BR> Didn't listen to your mother,did you?
<P> A SLUMBER PARTY!!!!<BR> You can invite Lora,Daisy,Gerri,Busty,Sheryl(as chaperone),Dana,Nancy,Student,Gina;let's see,who else?<P> I'll bring the ice cream,and the Danish Massages(world famous!).<P> What do you think?<P> ~~Murph
<P>
Jodie,<BR> <BR>Ok,I'll say it.<BR> <BR>At your age,you STILL need your beauty sleep!(SAOFEP!)<BR> <BR>There,feel better?
<P> Have a good day.<BR> 'Nite-nite.ZZZZZZZ<P> ~~Murph
I'm back..... did ya miss me?? LOL<P>TCF,<BR>Thanks for the card.... my B-day isn't until Monday, and I feel special now! Isn't your's on Monday too??<P>Mitzi, <BR>Geesh, if DOM thinks you're old... I've got 10 months on you! LOL... I'll host the slumber party! We can call all the cute guys and breath heavy & giggle, and then prank call all our X's or STBX's, OM's or OW's!!
I'll even make up a big batch of my world famous Margaritas!<P>Murph/DOM,<BR>Hey, We (Mitz & I) are still young hotties! At least I am once or twice a day.... damn power surges!
<BR>Hey, what are some nice (but inexpensive) hotels there in Seattle? I'm getting all my ducks in one basket so I can book my trip
. Also, how long does it take to drive to Vancover? I want to cross the northern border!!<P>Cinderella,<BR>I like the idea of posting email addys... or maybe we could just post them here like The Card Fairie does (unless they are too risque
to post here).<BR>Maybe we should start a thread for everyone to post there b-day & email addy.<P>Well, it's back to work for this little chickidee... catch ya'll later.<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty<P>My email is
dawnettad@aol.com
Hey Busty,<BR> <BR> If you're going to have a bunch of young,cute guys at the slumber party,I'll just stay home with my ice cream!I'm not young,or cute(well,maybe in the proper light).<P> Here's the scoop.It's about 145 miles from downtown Seattle to Vancouver,BC.The holdup is getting through the border.You can either hit it very early in the morning at the Blaine crossing,or head over to Sumas anytime for a faster crossing(but more miles).Take a look at the map.It's been a few years since I've crossed up there,so it could have gotten worse,I'll find out.Should take you maybe 3 hours to get up there,depending on crossing.<P> I haven't stayed in hardly any Seattle hotels,except a couple of expensive ones for an aniversary.Maybe you can tell me about where you want to stay(downtown?),and a price,and I'll look in my AAA book and see what I can find.<P>Of course,there's always Murphy's Bed&Breakfast,which includes a cozy basement room complete with friendly spiders,rats,and the ghost of the Woman in White(I don't go down there after dark).
<P> BTW,if we should cross paths when you're up here,you have to promise me you won't tell Mitz that I really don't look like Mel.I know it would break her heart if she found out the truth!
<P> Jodie,<BR> Oh,Hi-we were just talking about you.<BR> I was just telling Busty that I really look more like that good-looking actor...oh,what's his name?He was in that movie.....oh,you know the one I'm talking about.....<P> ~~Murph
Oh my dear Murph/whoever you're going by today (is it Mel still?),<P>Re: the slumber party...<P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Sheryl(as chaperone)<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>You have no idea what a bad chaperone I'd be!!!!
I'm in my no responsibility, just having fun phase... right or wrong, damn the torpedos.<P>This made me smile!! And, I'll have you know, it also made me post the first message in about a week and a half!!
And even then, very, very few.<P>You kill me!
<P>Have fun you guys...<P>Sheryl
Murph,<P>It seems like you're always talking about me when I'm gone!
<P>You just don't want us to think you really look like Mel so that we won't be fighting over you! LOL LOL<P>Sheryl,<P>Why do you think you were chosen as chaperone??
<P>Butterfly,<P>Bring on the MARGARITAS!!!!!!<P>Jodie
<P>my email is mitzihartman@webtv.net
Card Faerie really brightened my day Tuesday. I had a great day Wednesday. Actually I got most of my presents Tuesday.<P>My children spent the evening with their dad and came in that night with a basket holding a little European garden. Great - something else to get in the way and have to be tended but they did give me a gift. New guy in my life brought by a gift certificate to a shop that sells clothing and accesories from central & so. America. My whole office went to lunch to celebrate 2 birthdays.<P>Yesterday children and I took a day off together. Big event was a trip to public library. It's one of their favorite outings. Last night my mom showed up with a cake and a gold bracelet with 4 nice rubies and some tiny diamonds.<P>It all makes up for getting no presents last year.<P>I can party during the day tomorrow but not the evening. I have plenty of cake. Mom's and the one I baked. I can bring that!!<P>
Murph,<BR>I'd like to meet you while I'm there... That's one of the reasons for the stop in Seattle (aside from going to Vancover
). Maybe we could do lunch, dinner or ice cream
.... something. (was going to put each other, but don't want to have Ms. Mitzi or the censors all over me for that one
)<P>I promise I won't tell Mitiz what you really look like ... as long as you buy me a margarita!
Besides, I'm sure you are better looking than Mel, and I might just want to keep you all for myself!!<P>Oh, and about the slumber party... YOU were the <B><I>Young, good looking STUD MUFFIN</B></I> being referred to!<P>Mitzi,<BR>I have 3 5-gal buckets left over from my resturant days that I use to mix up PartyRita's in... Think that will be enough? We can always try to remix in them, but I've found after a bucket of them has been consumed, the mixing kinda goes out the window
!<P>Hey [censored], Where's the Joke, Man?!?!?!<P>Gotta go, I'm at work, and the boss is here!<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty<P>PS ~ Murph.... My Momma warned me about guys who would try to show me there <I>etchings</I>... wonder if that applies to ghosts too??? <BR>

Question: What does SAOFEP mean?<P>Mitzi - I do plan on being at the party. I have 2 cakes I can bring. White w/ white icing and choc.w/ choc. icing.<P>What time and when is the party? That will make it easier for me to get there. And I need to know the dress code. I can dress for:<P>hot tub party<BR>pool party<BR>dancing<BR>formal ball (have to get coach ready)<BR>lasar tag (rates high-tough in strapless dress & heels)<BR>picnic<P>I'm game. Just need details.<P>Can't make it tomorrow night. Got children and no computer at home. Will have computer tomorrow but will have to skip in and out of party so I can finish getting visual presentations ready for Sunday's worship services. We church secretaries sometimes have to lead double lives.
<BR>OMIGOSH!!
<P>Now I'm in trouble!The pressure is incredible!A good-looking Goddess who thinks I'm better than Mel wants to see me???<BR> <BR>A Young,Good-Looking Stud Muffin? <BR> Hardly....
<P> Busty,you better have a few drinks before you show up! But like your old blind dates,I have a great personality!<BR> <BR> Well,OK,Mitz says it's alright if you give me a,....er,......backrub!
<P><BR> Cinderella,<BR> You'll have to ask Mitz what SAOFEP means.It refers to her,ask any guy around!
<P><BR> Jodie,<BR> Sorry if we talk behind your back,but you're never around during the day.<P>Wait a minute...supposedly works during the day,comes home after dark.You're not a vampire,are you? Don't worry,I won't tell anyone(where's Buffy when you need her?).<BR> <BR> Catch you after dark,Elvira!<P> <BR> ~~Murph/NervousWreck<BR> <P> <P> <P>
Jodie/Elvira,<BR> No,I've never seen you(pix on the way,right?)but I can sense your sex appeal from your breathless posts!"Pant,pant,pant!"<BR> THO!!!
<P> Hey,tomorrow's Friday,and I'm not working this weekend.<BR> Supposed to be in the 80's here this weekend.The YardGod is going to town!<BR> <BR>What are you doing this weekend? Taking the kids into the big city to watch haircuts?
<BR>There I go,teasing you again,I'll have to watch that...
<P> So,I hear you have a new BF.This Drew who"claims"to be tall,dark,and handsome.Better watch out for those kind.<BR> <BR>So,I guess I'll be getting"DUMPED",with a capital D,huh?
<BR> You fickle females!!!
<P> ~~Murph/DumpedforDrew<BR> <BR> <P> <P>
Murph,<P>Now wait a minute!! You and Butterfly have your date almost completely arranged! I thought I got dumped first! LOL LOL <P>Actually, I'm gonna take the young uns to the county fair Saturday night! LOL LOL They wanna see the mud races! <P>Oh and Yard God! I need someone to finish my yard work! Know someone who can help?? (no, not poor Lora! LOL)<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Where is that Lora anyway?<BR> First she offers to stop by and help,now she disappears.<BR> Speaking of Lora,where the heck is Daisy Jo?<P> Did I scare her away.too?Not doing so good,am I?
<P>Now hold on there with Busty.She justs wants me to take her up the Needle,which,IF you remember,I was going to take you!<BR> I rest my case!
<BR>(Oh,and she was going to give me a little backrub,too)<P> BTW,it looks like you and that Drew fella are getting along quite nicely....
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>See?? The whole backrub thing! And you told her I wouldn't mind! (You didn't even ask!)<P>And you never offered to take me anywhere that wasn't so far off the ground! All I got was the offer of the Space Needle and your basement full of rats and spiders...hmmmm...sounds a little weird! LOL LOL LOL <P>Drew will never quite measure up to you! He'll never be Murph!
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> What's wrong with a little backrub?<BR> No harm in that!
<P> Ok,so I'd take you to Planet Hollywood,or something close to the ground.<BR> And you can take half of my bed,with my big dog between us as a chaperone(Sheryl?).<P> Does that sound better?<BR> <BR> See,I'll always do.....<BR> ...better than Drew!<P> ~~Murph/TheGreatDane
Murph,<P>I had to almost dump you before you could come up with something close to the ground to do! LOL LOL Planet Hollywood sounds great! <P>If Sheryl the Chaperone says the bed sharing is ok, that's better than the basement! But remember, each of us has to keep one foot on the floor. That way there's plenty of room for the dog!
<P>Now, I have to get more beauty rest. I have a meeting at 8:30am. Gotta turn in paperwork and maybe help fire a medicine thief!
<P>G'Night Murph,<BR>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Someone stealing the hard stuff,huh?<P> I need some beauty,er....sleep,too.<BR> Glad we worked that out.You know what they say,never go to bed angry!<P> I'll talk to Sheryl......<P> Have a good Friday!
<BR> 'nite,Jodie/Elvira<P> ~~Murph/TGD<p>[This message has been edited by Murphy (edited July 28, 2000).]
Murph,<P>Yep, someone's stealing Ritalin. This is the 2nd time she's done it and this time she left proof that she did it. My supervisor and some of the other higher-ups are investigating it today. She's going down!!! LOL<P>Now I have to go back in for 8 more hours and then I'm off for 2 whole days!!! Plus next week, I'll have another staff person working with me for 7 of the 8 hours. That will be a big help. Usually I'm there alone.<P>Jodie
<P>
Sheryl the Chap says:<P>Bed sharing okay if video camera poised and on
<P>Send the video to me in unmarked brown paper package... I will take good care of it/sell it to the internet for a million dollars
My computer has been on the fritz almost all day. It is finally brought back to life. I arrive for the party and I'm the only one here. I have to leave in 1-1/2 hrs. Where are the rest of the party animals. There are usually more of you here during the day. <P><BR>IT'S PARTY TIME!!!!!!!
Hi all,<P>Party sounds good. I am the queen of the killer margaritas they will put you down.<P>My divorce was final yesterday. Kind of anticlimatic. I am going out with my girlfriends tonight to celebrate. <P>Hey Butterfly,<P>I am near Seattle also, i might be able to give you some advice on accomadations depending on what area of the city you are thinking about. It would be fun to meet for coffee or margs. I saw you left your email. I can send you more info on hotels if you decide if you want to stay downtown, near the airport or whatever. I love Vancouver and go often. It is a 2-3 hour drive. It is well worth it. The best months here are Aug or Sep. It still might rain, but there are better odds for sun. Seattle is great when the sun shines. <P>Where are you coming from?<P>Sorry Im missing tonights bash, but I think I need to get out and stop obsessing about my divorce. <P>Later,<P>Gerri
Uh Oh..... did I cause a spat?
:evil grin:<P>Mitz, <BR>If Murph takes me to the Space Pin, and you to Planet Hollywood, and brings ice cream to the hot tub/slumber/'Rita Party, shouldn't we do something nice for him??
Well, I guess letting him have the pleasure of our company is more than enough!
<P>Murph,<BR>Since it's ok w/ Mitz, I'll give you a backrub... as long as you will give me one too. Have the oil warmed up and ready.... 10w30 works well
<BR>As far as places to stay... I'd like to keep the cost under $75 a night (closer to 50, but still safe). I was thinking maybe something like a La Quinta or a HoJo's. I'm trying to save a little vacation money so I an get my eyeballs fixed before I head out that way. (So they don't pop out of my head when I meet the Yard God!) LOL.<P>Cinderella,<BR>So, what'd ya decide to wear to our 'lil shindig? Seaquend swimwear, a spandex ball gown???? The suspense is killing me!<P>I won't be around much this weekend.... I have company, and will be running around like the mad woman I am!<P>Smooches to Everyone!<BR>Busty
Gerri,<P>Any advice on the accomodations/things to do would be great... read my post above to Murph for what I'm looking for... I guess I'm not to particular what area of town, as long as it's safe, and easy to find. I'll get a car at the airport.<BR>I'd love to meet you too... Margaritas (since it's vacation time) would be great. Maybe (if I actually have the time) we could go to Vancover together... you could keep me from getting into trouble.<P>Don't fret about missing this party.... go out and have a party of your own. The day my D was final, my parents and a friend of mine took me out to dinner to celebrate. Have a great time!!
<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty Flutterby
<BR>Oh, I'm coming from New Mexico. I'll be flying into Spokane first then on to Seattle, then down to LA. I'm gonna be a flyin' fool for 2 weeks! <p>[This message has been edited by Butterfly (edited July 28, 2000).]
I'll be the vision of loveliness wearing sparkling evening swimwear of spandex and chiffon. Gold heels of course and a swimcap with masses of vinyl multi-hued flowers. I'll have the floating glass so that my drink won't spill if I take it into the pool, hottub, bathtub, margaritatub, whatever.<P>I trust there will be plenty of smoked oysters.<P>
Sheryl,<BR> Murph and Mitz video?<BR> Make a million dollars?<BR> I don't think so.....
<P> Gerri,<BR> Sorry about the Big D.
<BR> I hope you'll be OK?<BR>I have a lot of yardwork to do if you need to get things off your mind........
<P> Busty,<BR> You might also check out:SeattleInsider.com<BR> Do you belong to the AAA club?They have books with room rates.Be happy to send you one.<P> You're getting your eyeballs fixed?You mean laser surgery? Maybe you better wait until after you meet Murph.A hazy blur might be better!<BR> No spat,Mitz was just asking about that backrub.<BR> 10-30W? Is that Castrol or Penzoil?<P> Jodie,<BR> Stealing Ritalin?I thought they'd want the stronger stuff.Can you cop me some Viagra?<BR>Never know when it'll come in handy,at my age!<BR> <BR>The week end is here!
<P> ~~Murph/TGIF<BR>
i'm gonna get 1400 tonight.....lol
Hey Bill,<BR> <BR> I think whoever gets the 1400th post should get a pix of a grope,er,group shot of Mitz,Lora,Busty,Gerri,Daisy Jo,Crocodile Jo,Cinderella,Gina,Sheryl,and any other women on this thread(bikinis are required,of course).<P> What do you think? Sounds good to me....<P> ~~Murph<P>
Here is another post. What have you all been talking about? There is no way I'm going back in time on this one.
OK,Bill.....<P> This one's yours!<P> ~~Murph
Ok, <P>Here it is ,Friday night, I just got home from a gruling day at work, and no talk of hot tubs or margaritas?? Man, you guys are pathetic.... I was really looking for some escape tonight......<BR>Murph, it is going to be 103 here tomorrow....how about over there?<P>------------------<BR>Susan
OMIGOSH!!!
<BR> Looks like you blew it,Bill!<P> Sue just claimed title to the 1400th post!!<P> WAY TO GO,SUE!!!(Did you see what you get as a prize? See above!)<P> Gonna be in the 80's here,Sue.Nice weekend.<BR> What are you going to do?<P> 103'? WHEW!!!Too hot for me!<P> ~~Murph
caught me looking....we should concider getting lives....naa.<P>B
Groping???? Not fair! I missed it!! LOL<P>Murph,<BR>Shoot! We can't fire her!! The investigators said that the proof won't stick. :-( And she works in the house that I manage. <P>And now we're making videos??? LOL LOL<P>Gerri,<P>Sorry about the divorce. I wish mine was final though. Welcome to the party!!<P>Bill,<BR>See? You missed out on a great prize!!! That's what you get for not paying attention! LOL LOL<P>Butterfly,<BR>As long as it stops at a backrub, it's fine with me! LOL<P>711,<BR>We've talked about anything and everything!! Now we're partying for everyone's birthdays!!<P>Cinderella,<BR>I WANT ONE OF THOSE SWIMCAPS!!!!!!<P>Jodie/Mitz
Heya Jodie,<P> Been waitin' for ya!<BR> Kinda tired tonight,so staying home and taking it easy.Lots of yardwork tomorrow.Also putting my old classic back together so I can cruise.
<P> You might go over to the General board.It's Lora's B-Day,and she's feeling down.
<BR> <BR> Gee,you jealous of Busty?I'll see she doesn't get out of hand!
<P> Maybe you can entrap that gal at work?<BR> You know,set her up to get caught stealing,just a thought.<P> So,when you ladies getting together for that grope shot?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph, <P>The grope shot was your idea so you get to do the planning!
<P>I'm going to look at a car tomorrow. It's a used one and my brother works at the dealership. They said I can test drive it for the weekend!
<P>I haven't had time to read much at all. I've been so busy and now in 2 weeks we're up for review at work. Some state agencies will come in and inspect everything!! I'm a little nervous since I'm new to all of this!! YUK!!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> Yeah,we get those FAA audits,and other inspections,too.<BR> I usually just say"You'll have to talk to my superviser on that one!"<BR> <BR>Don't be nervous,just put your nose in the air,and say,"That's NOT my department".<P> What kind of car you looking at?4X4,SUV,sportscar?<BR>Something that'll shred the tires when you lay on the gas?
<BR> <BR> ~~Murph/RoadWarrior
Murph<P>Yeah, I'm getting a sports car and putting a childs carseat in the back! I'm gonna be the cool mom! LOL LOL No, I'm going to look at a 5-speed Ford Contour. It's a mid-sized car. Gotta have something for the family! LOL LOL It's a 97 and they want about $8500 for it. And the mileage is low. <P>Since I'm managing a house that just opened on June 1st, I know that they are going to find a few things wrong with it. We're still trying to work out the kinks. So, next week will be pretty busy for me! YUK!! YUK!! YUK!!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> I rented a Contour when I was in FLA last year.It seemed like a nice car.Don't know about the reliability or problems,though.<P> Then again,I bought that 95 Chev conversion van,which isn't rated very high,but I haven't had any trouble with it(knock on wood).<P> What is wrong with your house?<BR> Do I need to send the HouseGod over?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>The house I live in (LOL) needs a lot of stuff done to it. Stbx liked to tear things up and then not fix it. (holes in doors and walls) I guess I need to learn how to repair drywall! LOL LOL LOL I've got 2 holes in the hallway and 1 in the livingroom that need patched!<P>The house that I manage is having problems with meds! LOL LOL That's where we'll get written up! Too many pills missing and too many mess ups on the sign off sheets...some people just can't follow directions. (Or stop stealing meds! LOL)<P>I've driven a Contour several times. They use them for the houses in the company I work for. Each house has their own car so we don't have to use our ow to take the clients places. It's not a bad car.<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> STBX likes to tear things up?<BR> Like his W? Ouch!!<P> Get yourself a home repair book.It's not too hard to patch drywall.You can do it.<P> Well,I'm falling asleep here.Big day tomorrow.Have fun on your testdrive.<P> Easy on those corners!
<P> Nite-nite,Jodie/Mario
<P> ~~Murph/ZZZZZZ
Murph,<P>OUCH!!! No fair! I only broke one thing! And he pushed and pushed until I finally lost my cool. Haven't done anything like that since.
I'm small and have to defend myself somehow! LOL LOL But seriously, I think back on it sometimes and wonder how I got in that situation. It's almost like it happened to someone else. I will NEVER put myself there again!<P>Well, get your beauty sleep! LOL LOL I'm still wide awake.
<P>Jodie
Ok, I want my prize!! But I want my Grope shot to be of the guys here in bikinis!!(Sorry girls, but you just don't do the same for me!!!)<BR>I am going to the Allied Arts Festival today, it is part of the Hydro Race Weekend here on the Columbia River....Lots of crazies in town for the event, so will prob stay home tonight and watch the boob tube or rent a movie...<BR>Keep cool, all!!!<P>------------------<BR>Susan
Jodie,<BR> <BR> Sorry,I don't look good in a bikini.<BR> <BR> So,did you buy that Porsche 930 Turbo?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>The cool mom!! Right!<P>I haven't bought the Contour yet, but it's here. I got it yesterday and get to keep it until tomorrow. I'm gonna go to the bank and see if I can get the money for it. (It shouldn't be a problem.) It's a nice car too!! <P>BTW, who said anything about a bikini?? LOL LOL And it seems you're on your own with that one. Bill has gotten lost somewhere. I think the picture idea scared him off! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> See Sue's reply above,about a men's grope shot!<P> You'll like having a newer car,huh?<BR> Did you check out Murph's Loans?(25% interest rate,but no questions asked!)<P> Going to be another hot day here.Did a lot of yardwork yesterday,probably will mostly relax today.Is it hot there?<P> Well,I'm off...........to the beach!<BR> <BR> Wanna come?
<P> ~~Murph/BeachBum
Murph,<P>I'm gonna really like having a newer car. My car is just a piece of junk. In 6 years, we put 100,000 miles on it and last year put about $1500 into fixing it. <P>25% interest?? But Hey!! Then I wouldn't have to worry about the credit check! LOL LOL (I have no credit of my own!)<P>So far, it's really nice here. But it might rain later. <P>I love to go to the beach, but I already have plans.
I'm going to a picnic. The place my mom works at is having their annual picnic. Me and the boys were invited.<P>Have fun strolling in the sand!!<P>Jodie
Hi guys,<P>Beautiful day here. I am sad about the divorce, but I think I am sadder cause it is not working out too well with the guy I have been dating for a year. It is time to end it and I have never broken up with anybody before. <P>He has been seeing me for a year and I have never seen or been to his place, met his family (which he is very close to) or any of his friends (he tells me I wouldn't like them). I went to Europe for a month with him and last night he came over to have drinks with my friends. He shows up late, doesn't even act attentive towards me and then fall asleep on the couch watching a movie. I slept alone. It is getting a little wierd. I don't want to hook up with someone where the attraction is gone before any commitment is made. He isn't even trying anymore. I think he is jealous of my new car. Criticizes it left and right. So I am an emotional wreak. <P>Any advise? How do you end it?<P>I have figured out that I am not having any of the emotional needs that Harley is talking about met. I don't think he would even understand the concept, let alone try to apply it.<P>Butterfly,<P>Vancouver could be fun. I would let you stay with me, but the only extra bed I have is a futon in my walk in closet. It is a double and my closet is as big as a room, but you might feel strange, not knowing me and all. I will email you, when are you coming again? <P>Hey murph, <P>That yard work sound good today, I used to love to do that with my husband. It is funny the things you miss from the marriage. Working in the yard was something I love to do. Often I gave orders. Thats probably why my ex-husband hated it!!LOL<P>Oh well having a day! Maybe it will get going later here. Take care all.<P>Ger
Gerri,<BR> I guess you just need to make a clean break.My sis got divorced around 12 years ago,and has dated a lot.She still hasn't found that special someone(good thing I have Jodie!).<P> He doesn't sound too serious if he won't even take you to meet his family.That does sound a little suspicious.Why is he jealous of your new car?What does he drive,a Geo Metro? <P> BTW,you can come over and work on my yard anyday.I'll even let you order me around!<BR>Yeah,I miss working on the yard with my W,too(when she was up to it).<P> If it would make you feel better,I'll come over and watch movies with you,and fall asleep on your couch!
<P> Enjoy the rest of the day.<P> ~~Murph/SuperSlug<P> <BR>
Gerri,<P>It does sound weird that you haven't met any of his family after a year.
Take Murph's advice, make a clean break, if that's possible.<P>Murph,<P>Super Slug??? LOL LOL LOL<P>Jodie
<P>
Murph and Mitzi,<P>New you would both have advise. Thanks, clean break sounds good, but is hard to apply. <P>I think that he is probably ashamed of his crappy furniture and apartment. I live in a very large home and am pretty established. No he doesn't drive a metro, it is a Ford Explorer, just dreams of owning a convertible one day. About meeting his family. I have gotten notes from his mother. She bought us Phantom tickets. She hugged me when I picked him up to go to Europe, but that was a spur of the moment meeting, I don't think he was comfortable about it. His ex was a psycho and he seems protective of his parents. I have "never" been a psycho and I don't plan on being one, so Im not sure what he is scared of. I have not been available to make any future plans or whatever becaue my divorce has taken so long. I just feel like there is no spark and I want that. Is that too much to want? Are my expectations too high? After spending almost a month with him, does he just want his space? <P>Murph,<P>So do you snore too?LoL<P>Later alligators!<P>G
Gerri,<BR> <BR> OK,from a guy's perspective,maybe(and this is a maybe)he's a little intimidated by you?You have a big house,a nice car,a good job,etc.Perhaps he's put off by your success,and it hurts his self-esteem.<BR> Do you down-play your assets,or does he feel you're lording it over him?Just a thought.If his ex was a psycho,he's probably going to be on the defense,wouldn't you?? <BR> You sure you're not a psycho?
<P> Are your expectations high?That depends on how high or low you're willing to"settle"for.<BR>And you know(by now)how long that initial"spark"or passion really lasts,right?<P>Look for loyalty,integrity,stability,and a good sense of values in a person,not just if he rings your dinnerbell(IF you know what I mean!)<BR> A good sense of humor doesn't hurt,either.Keeps real life from getting you down.
<P> BTW,my stbx snored,for years!<BR> I don't think I do......<BR> Jodie,did I snore last night?<P> ~~Murph/SS
Murph,<P>You snore all the time and VERY loud too!!!
<P>Jodie
Murphy,<P>Thanks for the grounding. My man has all of those things you speak of. He is loyal, stable and has a great sense of humor and that is what is so fun about him. He has been single for his whole life and is a bit more selfish than most. Only child and used to getting his way. But I am not willing to compromise some of my needs for affection and a good old fashioned romp in the hay. I try real hard not to make my house and car an issue in the relationship. I had to suffer alot of loss (both parents and my husband) to have what I have and that is nothing to be proud of. I could care less what he has and he knows it. So thanks for the advise and I will think on it.<P>Ger
Gerri,<BR> <BR> Your welcome....<BR> No charge this time for my advice,for what it's worth!<BR> Blank stares are still free!<P> Have a good week,enjoy this weather!
<P> <BR>Jodie,<BR> <BR>Eight states away,and you can still hear me snore? No wonder my stbx moved out!(had to clear that little matter up,so people don't get the wrong idea!)<BR> <BR>So what are you going to do when you actually SPEND THE NIGHT here!!!
<P> <BR>"Hide! Here comes Sheryl!"<P> Now we're in trouble!<P><BR> ~~Murph
<P>
Um,Sheryl,<P> What I meant was,when Jodie comes to visit,hopefully my basement,where she'll be sleeping,and I'll be upstairs,well,er,my basement is pretty well insulated,so hopefully she won't hear my snoring from upstairs,where I'll be,plus what with all the spiders and rats scampering about,she won't be paying much attention to my snoring,from upstairs,where I'll be.........<P><BR> "Whew! That was close.Do you think she bought it?"<P><BR> ~~Murph
Jodie?,<P> Are you still hiding behind the couch?<BR>I think she's gone,you can come out now....<P> I'm so embarrassed,I think I'll go hide under the covers!<BR> Let me know if you need that car loan!<P> Catch ya'll later......<P> ~~Murph/
Murph,<P>Didn't think my snoring question would get you into so much trouble. Just asked cause my daughter snores and I can hear her for miles. Im not sure of that basement of yours. Does it have running water? And I don't mean the kind on the floor. In reality it might even be better than the futon in my closet. Next time I need a blank stare Ill call ya. <P>Night Night all!<P>Gerri
Murph,<P>I wasn't hiding! I fell asleep!! LOL LOL Thought you were in trouble didn't ya?!<P>Don't worry, I'm sure you would be the perfect gentleman! (Come on, play along!)<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> You fell asleep?<BR>The night owl of the MB board?<BR> You expect me to believe that?<BR> I know you were really on the phone with that darn Drew,weren't you?Come on now,'fess up!
<P><BR> Gerri,<BR> Actually,my basement is pretty nice(nice and old).Stays cool down there.It has a bathroom with running water(toilet runs all the time).It also has a pool table,a TV,VCR,and a laundry room with extra food,and a microwave,and a big freezer for ice cream.<BR> <BR>I was only teasing about the rats and spiders.The ghost of the Woman in White scared them all away.
<BR> The ghost of the Wailing Woman used to reside down there,but she finally shut up!<P>Well,time for my medication.I can't be hurting anyone today!You have a great day.Going to be another hot one.<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Honestly I did fall asleep!! LOL Drew won't give me his home #!!!
And besides that, he was gone for the weekend! LOL LOL<P>Stay cool today!
<BR>Jodie
Dear Mitz and Murph,<P>Look, it's like 116 degrees here and I'm a bit irritable...
<P>You two kids need to just get together, run down to Murph's basement, and see if you can live with the sleeping/snoring arrangements. I give you my blessings... but of course, only because you're letting me videotape the whole thing... since you insist that I won't make any money on the internet with it, then I guess I'll submit it to COPS and see what happens... Murph, you can't wear clothes so they have to put those blinking squares over your private boy parts, and Mitz, be sure to knock a tooth out and wear the ugliest daisy dukes and a halter top you can find, okay??? <P>I'll make money on you two yet!
<P>Chap
<BR>
A group grope shot
I'll take one of the guys!
<P>I missed the party this weekend... my (%#*^*&@ phone has been out since Saturday morning early...
.<P>Gerri & Murph,<BR>It looks like I will probably be there about the 17-20 of Sept. I'm starting to get really excited about this trip... I'll be booking my tickets later this week (gotta get the Visa paid off first
), and then the hotels & cars this weekend. Gee.... where to stay.... a basement w/ spiders, rats & a ghost, or a closet????
The choices are endless! LOL LOL<P>Mruph,<BR>No, I don't belong to AAA or anything fun like that. I do have a SWA frequent flyer card.... after this trip I'll have at least 1 free ticket! (if I stop in Vegas on my way home I will have 2 freebies).<P>Mitz,<BR>Get a video camera and go play "Candid Camera" with the dimwit who is stealing the drugs. What a dope (no pun intended).<P>So, what color is your new car? (I know, but it's new to you isn't it?
).<BR>I'm gonna make Murph take me to the beach when I get there. But getting me into a bathing suit is another matter...
<P>Gotta get back to work... the Bosses (Mom & Dad) are taking me to lunch today, so I gotta get a few things done before then. I don't know what time I'll get home.... I'm gonna go celebrate 32 years of stunning glory! LOL LOL and almost a year of freedom... If I get home at a decent hour.... and my phone is working, I'll see ya'll tonight.<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty the Birthday Girl!<BR>
Wow!! The party was great - I think. I can't remember a thing. And I got home without my swim cap. Whoever found it, please send it to me. I'll reimburse you for the postage.<P>I want a copy of the grope picture of the boys - or is that men!
Hey All!<P>I'm Back!.......LOL.......I know,I know,you all missed me!......(NOT)<P>You guys sure do know how to keep a thread going!.......LOL<P>Mitz......just a little FYI......Drew wont give you his # bc he already gave it to me!<BR>(and just where do you think he spent his weekend???)JUST KIDDING!
<BR>(your w/Mel anyway right????)

Mitz's is buying a Porsche 930 Turbo!She's gonna be the baddest Mom in town.<P> When do I get a ride,Jodie?<BR> Right after Drew?

Picture her with big ol' sunglasses, mermaid outfit on... on a lawn chair... there I be!
<P>Chap
Murphy,<P>Which town near Seattle do you live?<P>My folks lived up there from 93 til 98.<P>My Dad did the retro fit on The gearge Washington bridge, then went on to do do the retro fits on a bunch of other bridges until moving to the Bay area in Ca to do more brige work.<P>Bill

OMG, they're fighting over me!!!
<BR>Calm down guys, there's more than enough to go around! LOL<P>Butterfly,<BR>Actually the car is a Ford Contour. And it's dark green. Murph is loaning me the money for it. (Psst..I think I found me a sugar daddy! LOL). <BR>We can't play Candid Camera in the houses because of confidentiality, but we got her tonight!!!! She took 2 more pills last night and was very sloppy about it. They are going to offer her a chance to take a drug test tomorrow. If she refuses, she is fired. If she does it, and anything shows up, she's fired. If she doesn't show up at the meeting, she's fired. So, basically, she's gone tomorrow!!! YIPPEE!!!!<P>Jodie
<BR>
<BR> I'm telling ya,Drew,you mess with my woman one more time,and I'll,...I'll.....<P><BR> Oh,Hi Jodie,<BR> We were just talking about you.<BR> <BR> A SUGAR DADDY???<BR> Now she thinks of me as a rich,older man!<BR> I give up........<P> So how do you like that new Porsche?<P> Oh,a Ford Contour?<BR> Well,Hey,those are nice cars,too.
<P> So,you're going to fire that poor,deprived woman,with four starving children?<BR> I see.......<P><BR> ~~Murph/LOTGT
Murph,<P>Well, you are older than I am! LOL But at least I didn't call ya OLD! LOL<P>I really like the car. Just waiting to hear if I can get the money from ya! LOL<BR>And I have to check on the insurance to see if I can afford it.<P>Yes, I'm going to fire the drug addicted Ritalin thief. And she only has 2 kids. LOL She should have thought of that before she started using! <P>So, what do the initials stand for this time?? <P>Jodie
Jodie(laying on the guilt trip),<P> BTW,inform me,is Ritalin addictive?I really don't know much about it.What does it do,just calm you down? Heck,I can watch an old B&W movie on AMC,and it'll put me to sleep!<P> The check's in the mail(you ever hear that before?)<BR> <P> ~~Murph
Jodie/Nubile,Feminine Goddess,<P> $20 a pill?<BR> Gee,what do you need a car loan for?<BR> Just sell 'em on the web!<BR> Don't worry,you won't get fired.You're too smart for that.......<P> Say,do you know why they give Viagra to the old men in the nursing homes right before bed?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Actually, it stood for Not Feelin' Guilty! LOL <P>Ok, why do they give Viagra to old men just before bed? <P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> What? You didn't like my accurate description better?(I'm just racking up the points!)<P> Well,time to hit the sack,so now you can sneak back over to Drew's thread!<P> Can't fool an old-timer!

Hey BB......
<P>Things are going ok!.........<P>Getting ready for the new school year to start!.....Ugh!....(I can't believe that the summer is almost over.)
<P>We have training work shops this whole week,so not gonna make it to the pool!<BR>(I know life is rough!).....LMAO<P>This weekend I leave to go to my folks in Ohio....Toledo that is!......I will be gone a week...but they do have a PC so I might be able to sneak on here and there!..
<P>I would love to sit a drink a few w/you watch the sun go down........(just between you and me.....I don't like those young things......I am ready for a great mature older man!)
..........although I don't think that he would be able to handle this young sexy thang!.......LMAO.....<BR>(man,I just crack my self up!
)<P>I am just hanging out and thought that I might be able to get back into the party that won't die!............<P>I will be lurking so better not talk about me!<P>Oh,.........what is it w/ Drew and his wanting me to be RITA........doesn't he have enough women already???.....ROTFLMAO<P>Just hanging around.<P>Gina

Hi y'all!!<P>Well, basically she's fired but she didn't show for the meeting so she doesn't know it yet. We have to do it face to face. <P>In the house, we have Ritalin, behavior drugs, blood pressure meds, seizure meds, and anti-anxiety drugs. What a combination!! <P>Drew,<BR>See? We got you started on the party and now you just can't quit!! We are the great addiction!!! LOL LOL<P>Murph,<BR>I think you're right. I must have SAOFEP!!!
<P>Gina,<BR>It's so great to have you back for now. Things are going really good here. Check in while you're in OH. And I agree, stay away from the young ones. Older and more mature!!!!<P>Jodie
Or am I Rita now???<BR>
Hey Mitz!<P>I have missed you guys!.........
<P>I don't know if you are Rita or if I am?<P>Drew did say that I would be Rita and for everyone to be nice......and for me to behave!<P>Gee......
.........when have I not ever been able to behave???...LOL<P>Yeah......I do agree w/you!.....I would like to be w/a man that is older!<BR>(It would be nice if he could teach me a few things!
)<P>You sure do have a lot of meds at your place......
.....(work that is!)I would think that it would be hard to keep track of all of it!.........(but than I am a blonde!)
<P>Take it easy!<P>Gina

Gina!!!!!!<P>I think sometimes, older men could teach you something. But then on the other hand, we could train the younger ones. I don't know which would be better!
<P>We have sooo many papers that we have to sign when we give meds at work. Just for the ritalin, we have 6 papers that we have to either sign or initial. It is confusing when you first start it, but after a while you catch on to the routine. <P>Boy, Drew just jumped right in to the party!!!! (He made Murph a little jealous!
)<P>Jodie
Gina,<BR> <BR> You know I'm an older man,and I'd love to teach you some new things.Like......<BR> <BR> Maximizing your retirment portfolio<BR> Picking out some good mutual funds<BR> Getting the best deal on life insurance<BR> Re-financing your house<BR> Cutting costs on your car insurance<P> Things like that.Is that what you're talking about? <P><BR> Jodie,<BR> <BR>Of course you have SAOFEP(THO)!<BR> <BR>Now if Dana would send us the d@mn pictures,we could find out just how much!
<P> So I guess that Ritalin junkie is dead meat,huh?<BR>Quite an assortment of psycho drugs you have there.You could make a killing on the MB website!(pass me a Xanex,would ya?)<P> I worried about the Student.Have you read her last post?I've always wondered if someone posted to us that they were going to kill themselves,should we contact the moderater? Could they even do anything,even with their real name? Good question,huh?<P> Did you get your car loan?<P> ~~Murph/H&S
Mitz,<P>Yeah.......I do supose you do get use to it after awhile.....so it is no big deal then.<P>LOL......I know.....Drew just came right in and didn't miss a beat!.......(I know his situation from meting him on the EN Board.)<P>I know that he made Murph a little jealous,but you know........just between us I think that he is probably just a big ole teddy BEAR!............LMAO<P>I need to get to bed......I have to get up early now......for work....(well,training that is!....LOL)<P>Take it easy and I will be try to be here tomorrow.......some time!<P>Tell Murph that I said Hi........(and BTW didn't he say something about me being in his basement???)
<P>Gina
<P>
Murph,<P>I know that I said that I was going to bed but saw this and had to respond!<P>I do know that you are a older man!<BR>The things that you mentioned might be great and all but.......well,...um...er,um.....not really what I was thinking and had in mind!<BR>
<P>What was this about me not stalking you asking for my address and being in your basement??........is that your way of asking for a date?.........BLUSH............<P>Gina
<P>
Murph,<P>I did read TheStudent's last post. I know when Sobeit was talking about suicide, I emailed Tempest and told her what was going on. Another MB'er and I even talked about calling the State Police in her area. Isn't TS from Atlanta? Does anyone know her real name? It could be worth looking into.<P>I have an appointment with the loan officer tomorrow morning at 10am. And I checked on the insurance and I think I can afford it. So, as long as I can get the loan, I should have the car by the end of the week! YIPPEE!!!! <P>Gina,<P>Murph's been trying to lure everyone to his basement!
He's probably turned it into a dungeon down there! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> No,I never heard her mention her name.She is from Atlanta.I always get worried when I hear this kind of talk(more than once).I've always hoped I've helped some new people work through their pain without doing something drastic.But I guess if someone really wants to do themselves in,there is nothing we can do about it.
<P> Gina,<BR> And here I thought you were asking me for a date!Didn't like my advice,huh?There's no pleasing some people.....<BR> Don't remember about you being in my basement,just ghosts! Care to spend the night?
<P> ~~Murph
MURPH!!!<P>I GOT THE LOAN!!!! I get the car tomorrow. I gotta give them time to get it cleaned up and ready. <P>Jodie
<P>
WOOO HOOO...Mitzi got her car! Hey I got the sunglasses on, the cooler ready...can you say ROAD TRIP??????<P>I have driven Murphy to DRINK Mitzi, I drove Gina into being "RITA", now how can I drive you...or I guess in this case ride with you. I know after I bought my "truck" NOBODY drove it...but a ROAD TRIP is a must to break any car it!<P>Lets see..I am thinking that a Beach Party oh say in Mazatlan, Mexico sounds wonderful...can get CHEAP Corona's, party all day have fun in the sun and well party some more!<P>Oh hey on a serious side here. Was glad to see that TS is okay. I read her thread today...WOW that was scarey!<P>Good JOB Mitz with the aid in which you gave!!!<P>Drew

<B>Murph,</B><P>Man I am needing a drink right about now!<BR>It has been a rough day!....Geeessshhh,have I gotten spoiled!.......LMAO<P>Yeah.......I was kinda asking you but thought that I would be smooth and ask you if you were asking me!......(Did you get that?).....ahhhhh,my brain is now fried!<P>I love basements.......and like ghost's too so you can count me in!.......so when can I move in?.....you like rug-rats?.....(refering to my kids that is.)<P>Hope your day is going well!<P><B>Mitz,</B><P>Hey girl!.......3 cheers for Mitzi!!!!<BR>That is great that you got the loan!
<P>So when are you planing that road trip?<BR>Mind if I tag along?.......(I don't take up tooo much room!)........LOL......Will my 5 suitcases fit?<P>Take it easy!<P><B>MST,</B>......(that would be Mr.Smooth Talker Drew.)<P>Hey buddy!.......going on the road trip w/Mitzi huh?.....did you clear that up w/her first?......LOL<P>I kinda like Baby Doll........haven't really had a sweet name like that before!,.....LOL<P>Hope you had a good time at VB........

This girl knows how to have a good time<P>Hey Mitzi...next road trip lets drive and pick up Gina okay! She is a very very fun girl to have in a party!<P>If smiles could be infectious she can make ya smile...WOW

Murph,<P>Oh........finally......you are here to save me!.......LOL<P>Fay-is really pretty here.......lots of mountains and trees......but than I know that you are all to familar w/that!....LOL<P>Yeah......I have a nice house........built in the 70's......so have done a lot of remodeling on the inside......(you have heard about all of that.....LOL)<P>I have got to get to the outside tho....I have really neglected it!<P>I do know that you are the YG.........maybe you can give me some pointers?

<P>Gina
Uh,Drew? <P> Have you had your Xanex today?<BR> TOO MUCH flattery will get you nowhere.<BR> Don't you know that? Geez......<P><BR> Gina,<BR> How much yard/land do you have?<BR> Yeah,I've done a lot of landscaping,here,and at family member's houses.It does take time and money.<P> I have an old house,too.But I think some of these older homes are built better than these new ones they slap up.What do you think?<P><BR> ~~Murph/YG<P> <BR>
Oh Baby Doll...you have it all wrong...I don't share well...Oh by the way..Gina you don't need to mow again...your YS did it for you last weekend...remember?<P>Having a moment there are ya?<P>
Murph,<P>Flattery really doesn't do it huh?.......(I guess than I might be too easy!)....LOL<P>I can't really tell you how much land/yard exactly but.......it is a pretty good size front and back........lots of trees!<P>It does take a lot of money and time.....and I have spent it all the last couple of years on the inside.........dang,I still have yet to finish my kitchen!<P>I do agree w/you there........I do think that the older ones are made better and not only that but you do have more yard!<BR>Now a days.......you get new and they cram you into these little lots!......<P>Although,I would say that I think that w/the work that they did do on this house my stbx and I do agree that we think that we had the "Drunk" builders........didn't do a very good job!......LOL....<P>Gina/BD
<P>
Hey MST,<P>Opps.......
......I guess I was having a blonde moment there!.......<P>I would hope that you don't like to share!<BR>I have no respect for guys that are into that!.......(sharing that is!)
<P>Gina
<P><BR>
Gina,<P> Yep,those real smooth talkers are a dime a dozen.They'll love you,and leave you,all in the same day! Seen it happen,more than once.<P> They build new houses on those little lots there,too? Yeah,they really jam them together here,unless you pay big $$$$ for more land.<P> I was going to build a new kitchen,too,until the [censored] hit the fan.Had some nice cabinets all picked out,too.What are you doing to your kitchen?<P> I'm still trying to get Lora to help me with all my yardwork!<P> ~~Murph/YG<BR> <BR>
YG,<P>How can you tell that they are a dime a dozen and just ST ya.....or if they really are sincere?........(that does kinda scare me in the fact that ST will get ya everywhere!).....you know,it has been so long.....LOL<P>Oh,I know ,........even the small land here is just crazy priced....Fay is a college town so it is much more expensive!<P>Man doesn't that just stink!.......I just went through and painted and added molding to the doors.....and new hardware!....it is just amazing what a little paint can do!<P>Man,.......Lora hasn't come over yet....<BR>Geezzzz.....one would think that she worked for a living......LOL<P>Gina
<P><BR>
Gina,<P> Well,I would hope that's what a woman's intuition is for.Spot'em a mile away?Perhaps not.I guess all you can do is not trust anyone,until they give you enough reason to trust them.<P> Yes,there are a lot of little things you can do to make your house look nice.A little paint and trim can do wonders.Same with getting rid of those junk cars in the front yard!<P> Gee,I really didn't mean to p!ss Drew off,if that's what I did.It's just that I've been feeling a little strange lately.<BR>Kinda down about some things.
<P> I'm going to take my pooch out for a walk at the beach.Maybe that'll clear out some cobwebs?Not running out on you,really.I will talk to you later.<BR>Catch ya later,Gina/BD<P> ~~Murph
YG,<P>Hey.......I don't think that you pi@# him off.I just think that he probably had other things to do......LOL<P>What is up?.......Maybe I can help?<BR>I don't know........but I do know that I am a great lisenter!........make that reading on here!<P>I am here staying up late again.......doing some other work so if ya wanna I will be here!<P>Gina
<P>
Ok.....Murph,<P>Where are ya?.......I am sitting here.....<BR>Drew left,and you left!.....boo,hoo,hoo,what is a girl to do.....(geeesssshhh,do I smell or something?)....LMAO<P>I am starting to fall asleep.......so if you are out there just a lurking you better talk to me!........(saying that in the nicest of ways!)
<P>I will be around for a couple more mins.....if not.......I will catch up w/you sometime tomorrow afternoon!<P>Take it easy!<P>Gina
Jodie,<P> I hope you like that new car.
<BR> <BR>Just going through a stage,I guess.Must be that time of the month.Sometimes,I wish I had been in an abusive marriage,then this divorce thing would be easier to handle.Things are still hard to comprehend,that's all.Never thought this"office affair"would go the distance.
<P><BR> No,you're not getting DUMPED!<BR> Nobodys moving in,sorry Gina!<BR> <BR>BTW,Gina,didn't mean to stand you up last night,just needed to get out for a while.<P> You ladies have a great day.Going to be another nice one!<P><BR> ~~Murph
<BR>
Murph,<P>Sometimes we all need to get out just to clear our heads. Tell ya what, next time you get to feeling like that, let me know and I'll take ya for a ride in my new car!
<P><BR>Hey Gina! You got dumped by Murph!
He canged his mind about you moving in!!!<P>It's raining so hard here! I think it's gonna flood! LOL<P>Jodie
Hey Murphy,<P>Not Peeved off at you at all...hey we are just havin' some fun. UGH I had the visit that I so didn't want or need last night! IN-LAWS...don't get me wrong...I LOVE MY in-laws, wouldn't EVER complain, but since we filed 2 weeks ago, they have been wanting me to "put more pressure" on my STBX, cause they want to keep me as their SIL.<P>The nice thing is though my FIL told me straight up, I will always be HIS son that he never had. Makes a guy feel good, MIL ditto'd that too! But, they seem to think I NEED to work harder at this before the FINAL court date! UGH<P>So just had a lot of sudden stuff come up!<P>Mitzi, don't you EVER consider yourself "dumped" wouldn't ever happen!
<P>Gina...talk to me Baby Doll...how is your day? Did you have a GOOD "gina day?"<P>did you get my "flirting flowers" yet? hehehehehe....sorry but if I knew where you lived...I would send you flowers...hehehehe<P>All Baby Dolls deserve flowers!<P>Hey I hope to catch you all around tonight!<P>Very glad to hear from you Mitz. I thought YOU drove off in the "Wild BLUE Yonder" and were on your way to get me again for another Road Trip!<P>Cheers to you all
<P>Oh BTW...Murphy, you doing better today? SOrry I didn't see that you were having a bummer day, or I would have been a nicer guy! But not to worry, You didn't Peeve me off!<BR>Hang in there bud!<P>Drew
OH DUH...hey Baby Doll needs a special celebration here...she rolled this NEVER ENDING POST over to 100. It is her special day for sure...I guess we all have to fly in for a party stop...got room to pick us all for for a cool night to celebrate your special day?<P>Do you feel special Gina? WOW the first poster girl of the century mark! I have my all of my camera equipment handy, you ready to pose for your own special photo session
<P>Drew
Jodie,<P> The weather is real nice here-upper 70's.Just right.Hop in your new car and come over,I'll buy you an ice cream.<P> Wait a minute......Ford Contour,isn't that the one with the safety recall because the airbag would activate when you hit a bump too hard? I think it was that car.........<P><BR> Drew,<BR> I'm glad your feathers aren't ruffled.Just a lot going through my mind right now,so I'm a little on edge.<BR> Man,I wish I had your In-laws.My W cheated on me,ran to them,and dumped out 21 years of garbage,lied to them,and they believed every word she said. Talk about gratitude.I did everything for her family,and they told me I was the best SIL in the world.Amazing how fast that can change when your wife cheats on you,huh?!<BR> Take it easy,but not TOO easy!<P> ~~Murph<P>
Murph,<P>I do know what you mean.......some days it is hard to understand the why's of all of this?.......but it will get better!<P>Just remember that it is her.........and not you.......your a great guy w/a fantastic personality.......and wonderful witt!
<P>It will always be her loss!!!........someday she will realize it!<P>Hope that you are having a better day!<P>Mitzi,<P>Hey girl........no,of course you don't have to bow out!......(pppssttt...I do think that Mel does have the hots for you!)<P>(ssshhh,don't tell anyone but I think that I kinda like MST!)LOL<P>Drew,<P>Yep........you are right it is my special day........The Big 35!.....

Mitzi,<P>Hey there!...........just wanted to say I hope that you have a great weekend!<P>Try and keep all these great guys in line!<BR>(Mainly just MST....aka,Drew)LOL<P>He tends to get a little more flirty the more beer he drinks!......ROTFLMAO<P>Take it easy............<P>Gina

Dear Murph,<P>And you say women are fickle??!!!
<P>Jodie
<P>
Jodie,<P> Well,uh,I just fiqured you'd just skip over those replies that didn't mention you.<BR>Or something like that......
<P> I was only teasing about that recall,you know.Didn't want you running to the dealer.<BR> You can check with them to see if there were any,though.<P> How do your kids like it? Do they fight over who gets the front?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Don't count on me reading over anything!! I read every word posted here!! LOL LOL LOL<P>The boys were fighting over who gets the front when I took it for the weekend test drive! LOL LOL Now that it's mine, they fight even more about it! LOL LOL And then they fight over everything else...hopefully it's just a phase! (yeah, right!)<P>I had my brother check the car out completely. He even ran the VIN on carfaxx to see if there had been any body work or engine work done to it.It came up clean. He's my mechanic/bodyguy! It pays to have someone like that in the family. <P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Your Bodyguy?<BR> I won't touch that one!<P> I know what you mean,though.I was the family handyman,too.<P> Didn't know about the VIN number check.That's a good idea.You wouldn't want to be buying a stolen car,either.<P> How old are your kids again? <BR>Yeah,they seem to go through that fighting stage.My sis and I fought about everything when we were kids,now we get along great.<P> Of course,if she wants my handyman help,she has to!
<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Let me rephrase that! My brother does any body or mechanical work that needs done to my car. Better?? LOL LOL<P>Kyle is almost 11, Dylan is 8 and Noah is 3 1/2. My Dylan is a pest. He picks constantly on the other 2. <P>Me and my brother and sisters fought a lot too. Now I get along with all but my older sister. We don't go out of our way to be around each other but we don't avoid either. If I see her, I see her. If I don't, I don't. It may sound awful but she's done a lot of things to me that I've had a hard time forgetting about. <P>I hope with mine it's just a phase. <P>Well, my beauty sleep is calling. I have a meeting in the morning at 11 and I don't want to look too bad!
<P>G'Night,<BR>Jodie
Jodie,<P> I'm sure you would look great even without your beauty sleep!<BR> Have a good Friday.I'll bet that meeting is about a big promotion.
<P> Nite,Jodie/SAOFEP<P> ~~Murph/Handyman

I'm back. <P>Drive a Reagan era Olds. Solved the front seat problem by making both combatants sit in the back seat. Sometimes I wish I could put one of them in the trunk.

OK, EVERYBODY!!<P>Get over to the EN board and read the smart blond joke. Then come back over here and make Mitzi and the rest of the blonds happy by telling them that it sounds just like something they would do.
Am I the only person who has encountered the problem of the system accepting my replies but they don't show up for a long time so I repost and then look stupid for double, or triple, posting?<P>I have noticed that it is not just on this thread.<P>[This message has been edited by cinderella (edited August 04, 2000).]<p>[This message has been edited by cinderella (edited August 04, 2000).]

Fair Prince Drew - Thy fairer princess must now seek her coach and depart to the greener climes of Nashville. There she will embrace her fair son and daughter and take the handsome son to the psychiatrist. Then shall the princess take the young royals home to the familial castle whereupon the dark un-prince shall arrive and carry them away for a day. Thereupon shalt the beauteous princess make ready for the arrival of the handsome, suave, and debonair suitor and she shall be carried away for an evening of fun and relaxation and spooning, and mooning, and whatever it is. <P>I bid you a fond adieu until the dawn of Monday's light and workday.<BR>doct
Ok, this is really starting to bug me!! I'm home early enough to get in on the party for once! And where has everyone gone???? <P>Jodie/Mitz
Mitzi...I was just thinking the same thing...I just got back to see if anything new was happening! And here you are...LOL<P>Damn can't beleive I am home on a Friday night...LOL<P>
Drew,<P>Don't feel bad! I'm home every Friday night after work! LOL LOL What's a social life?? I haven't had one in so long I wouldn't know how to act! LOL LOL I'd probably make a fool of myself!
<P>Mitz
Hi Jodie,<P> The weekend is here.How are you?<BR> I'll be helping my folks move a few things tomorrow,so I won't be relaxing all day.<BR>I am inheriting an old antique grandfather clock that they don't have room for.Sounds nice,too.<BR> <BR> Social life?Yeah,I talk to women all the time;you,Gina,Busty,Lora,Daisy,etc.Guess I need to get out more,like the old days.We're talking the'70's,Folks.Things just aren't the same,though......<P>"Ya know what I mean,Vern?"<P> Hey,that Drew's not such a bad guy after all,even with what Gina e-mailed me about him.Those Nebraskan's sure know how to have a good,old time down on the farm!
<P> ~~Murph/CS
See,Drew,<P> I am faster than you!(well,in posting,that is!)<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I'm doing good. Don't have to go back to work until Monday unless you count houseWORK!!!!! LOL<P>I inherit things like old family bibles, pictures, baptism records, obituaries...that sort of stuff. I got a box full of stuff when my grandma went into a nursing home. And some other things too. I love old stuff, especially if it's from my famiy! I can actually trace back about 16 generations on some branches of my family. I'm related by marriage to Pocahontas!! <P>Drew,<BR>Murph's still around. He keeps me company almost every night! LOL LOL<BR>I need to pull out the ole wine coolers...I know cheap but they have alcohol! LOL LOL LOL LOL<P>Jodie/Mitzi
<P>
Murph if you look at the times, I beat you by 3 minutes...nanananana!<P>p<P>
So I just heard from Gina. She is half way to her destination! Yes she knows how to get ahold of me! LOL<P>Said to say hello to you guys!!!<P>So got them wine coolers out and tossin' them back are ya Mitz, you a sipper, or a guzzler? Or does it just depend on the night?<P>
Jodie,<P> Pocahontas? Are you sure you don't live in a Tee-Pee?
<P> That's great,though,to know that.I'd like to find out a little more about my family.Most of them are from Denmark,but some are from Scotland(William Wallace!),and a little from England(that's bloody well right!). <P> Yeah,I'll have to come over some time,and you can show me your street,er,your town.Does it only have one horse,too?Pretty peaceful and quiet,I bet,huh?<P><BR> ~~Murph/CitySlicker
Drew,<P>Tonight I'm a guzzler!! LOL LOL LOL Just wish I had more than just a few!<P>Tell Gina HELLLOOOOO from me!! <P>Mitz
Murph,<P>I am NOT a farm boy, yes I grew up in Small Town Nebraska, but did the town kid thing for 18 years, now I am in what Nebraska calls a city! LOL<P>But hey wouldn't trade my small town boyishness for nothin' that is for sure!<P>I am glad that Gina talked well of me! She's a good gal herself!<P>Someday somebody needs to REALLY plan a REAL party. Omaha would be about right smack in the middle of you both, and I have flown to Seattle a few times Murph, Not sure what would be closest to you though Mitzi?<P>I will pour drinks and make you all feel at home! Only two beds here though
Guess gotta share! LOL
I will do that,but I would venture a guess that she'll check in on us all to see if we are all "inline" and not getting out of hand!<P>Well I am sippin' but have been sippin since 5, so I guess 5 1/2 hours of sippin' has loosened the mind, but will hold myself in check! LOL<P>What flavor is the choice of Wine Coolers tonight!<P>Ya like Lemonade?<P>if you do try this, it has a kick<P>HOMEMADE Lynchburg Lemonade!!!!<BR>1 part Jack Daniels<BR>1 part Triple Sec<BR>1 part Sweet and Sour Mix<BR>4 parts Sprite or 7-up<BR>Add Ice and stir, garnish with a lemon or cherry. it is oh so good!<P>But watch out it can nip the butt a bit. Heres is a hint too. Go with 2 PARTS of JD! LOL
Murph,<P>Nope, no tee-pee. My family is Dutch, German, Swiss, American Indian, English and Irish. I'm related to George C. Marshall too. He was Secretary of State (or something like that) when Eisenhower was president. He was a cousin to my grandma's mother.
<P>Come on out, I'll show ya around! It won't take long either! LOL LOL LOL And then you could take a walk on my dad's 300 acres of land. That would take longer than walking thru Keyser! LOL LOL <BR>Jodie
Drew,you dog,you!<P> Ok,so Gina e-mailed me,but she must have your number,and you have hers?<BR>Watch those long-distance phone bills!<P> Actually I grew up in what WAS a small town here.Not anymore.That's progress,I guess.<P> Two beds,that's it?<BR> OK,a big guy like you probably needs one,where a smaller guy like me will fit comfortably with a few hot babes!
<BR> (oh,Jodie,Gina,Daisy,Busty?)<P> ~~Murph/AH&S
Ok now! How come everyone else gets email and phone calls but me?? Again, I'm left out. I'll just go sit in the corner and pout!
<P>Jodie
Okay Murph you have me ROTF here! I guess SIZE has its disadvantages doesn't it! LOL<P>I have a BIG bed though you have to keep in mind, so it fits three comfortably, I mean one gal, and the mutt, he must be on the bed too!<P>and I bet that you could still fit three in "your" bed!<P>Oh I forgot, I have two couches to, there ya go Murhp you can have the overstuffed one, fits one comfortably, even me with these long legs! it is a Big mans couch! so I am sure you little guys will fit perfectly well on it!<P>
Oh Mitz, do you need a call tonight, Drew will be happy to talk to you!
<P>Sorry Murph I couldn't resist, always love a chance to talk to a real lady that is drinking wine coolers! HUMMMMMM what comes to mind in a conversation with a "buzzed" woman
Jodie,<P> That sweet Gina e-mailed me,when she heard I was feeling down.I was suprised because I usually moan and groan right here!<BR> But tell me your e-mail address(again-DUH!),and I'll see if I can scan you a pix of,of,.....my house!
<P> What was the deal someone said about making long-distance phone calls through your computer? OOPS! Dang it,you don't have a PC!Does that work with Web TV?<P><BR> ~~Murph
Drew,<P>AT least someone is thinking of me! LOL<P>And I'm not buzzing yet. It takes more than one wine cooler for that. I can hold my own with the best! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Drew,<P> Don't get your hopes up.<BR> <BR> I've been writing to Jodie for some time.I've seen her spelling when she gets sloppy drunk.I can just imagine her on the phone....

<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Butterfly was the one who mentioned the thing about calling over the computer. She said that someone could call someone else's home phone on the computer. Or call from computer to computer. I can't do it with WebTV. But she said she though you could have a few people calling in at the same time too! I don't know, you'll have to ask her! LOL LOL <P>Do you know how many times I've put my email address on here?? A bunch!!! The only thing I haven't done is post my home address and phone #. It doesn't matter to me. I'd post it. Then some freak would come after me! LOL LOL<P>mitzihartman@webtv.net<P>And now you all know my last name too!!<P>Jodie
No I meant wonderer...LOL...I wonder what life is like on the otherside you know!<P>then if I find out it wonders the same thing as I wonder then I wander!<P>Hey Mitz, will be over tomorrow, to act upon your Yard Stud needs, I just read your last post on the OTHER party, when I get up I will be right over, mower in hand, just make up a batch of tea will ya?

GEEEZZZ,<P>The offers I'm getting. What's a girl to do??

Hey you two, I am going to leave ya in the dark together okay! Stay out of trouble, Thanks for the ice cream Murph, and have great weekends, may catch ya tomorrow night<P>Drew
Murph,<P>The house I used to live in seemed to be haunted. It was built before the civil war and a battle took place nearby. Plus a lady was killed by her H in the kitchen.<P>So, you think you could wrestle me?! I think I'd win! I've taken passive restraint classes and self-defense classes! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
See you around,Drew.<P> If you change your mind about spending the night in my basement,let me know.<BR>I have some papers for you to sign first.<P> G'nite. Leave a light on.....

Jodie,<P> A lady was killed in the kitchen?<BR> What,her H didn't like her cooking?<BR> That must of been a cheery place to live!<P> I said I wanted to wrestle,not get kicked in the groin,and my eyes gouged!!!<BR> <BR>Maybe I better pass on this one.

I cooked in a kitchen where a woman died. <P>BTW, I wasn't talking to Drew last night on the phone. He did, however, email me! Unlike someone else I know! LOL LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Sorry Murph,<P>No phone call here with Mitz, she wouldn't call me.

I will give you that time to share your....Um.....thoughts. that is the word I was lookin' for!<P>BTW...good morning again!<P>Drew
Hey Drew,<P>You got woke up by animals and I got woke up by a pager! LOL LOL<P>Murph must still be asleep. I guess I wore him out last night with all the talk of wrestling! LOL LOL<P>I'm cleaning my house today. (maybe! LOL LOL)<P>Mitzi
Jodie,<P> I just got up.It's only 7:30AM here,ya know!<BR> <BR>I know,you drank too many wine coolers,and fell asleep on me again,right?(she was on the phone with Drew,I just know it)<P> This old house could use a good cleaning,too.You up to it?I need to go help my folks this morning.It's cloudy here now,but is suppose to be in the 80's.<BR>OK,I guess I'll have to e-mail you later.
<P><BR> Drew,<BR> You sending Nasty-grams to Jodie?<BR> Watch your step there,son.<BR> <BR>You have a manly mower?I didn't want to spend that much,so I bought one of those un-manly ones.It still does the job,though.Maybe you can mow my lawn while Jodie is cleaning my house.Later I can show her my,er....my etchings!
<BR> <BR> Catch Ya'll later! Have a Great Day!<P><BR> ~~Murph/TGIS
Murph,<P>Yeah, 2 wine coolers just knock me out! NOT!! My webtv was on while I was snoozing so if Drew tried to call, he got my voice mail! LOL LOL<P>I'll make ya a deal, I'll help you clean if you help me! Gets done quicker with more than one person working on it. How's that?<P>It's nice here. Probably about 75. Better than 95 or storming.<P>Have fun helping the parents move things!!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> You know I'd come help you clean,but I'm afraid if I got in the same room with Jodie the RHG,all H&S with SAOFEP,and me with my THO,we wouldn't get much done!
<P><BR> ~~Murph/YG
Murph,<P>Gee, I guess I'm gonna have to make myself look cruddy to get anyone to help me out!
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> You couldn't look cruddy if you tried!!!
<BR> (see how I rack up the points?)<P> OK,I'm going to try to send you a pix through e-mail.I hope this is really your address,and not some cop's down the street!<P> No,no,not that kind of pix!
<BR> <BR>Let me know how it turns out,it has a long way to travel!<P><BR> ~~Murph/MailMan<P>
Murph,<P>Gee, we might have to change your name to MST! LOL LOL LOL LOL<P>Believe me, I can look pretty cruddy! <P>It's really my address. There aren't any cops that live down the road. And it's really my name too. <P>Jodie
Murph,<P>I got the picture. Check your mail!
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> What? You don't believe me?<BR> This is just the average house.You should see'em up in Redmond(Microsoft country).<P> When you coming over to mow that yard,and wash those windows?<P> Well,I'm off,catch ya later.......<P> Have a Great Day!
<P><BR> ~~Murph/LordoftheManor
Woo hoo 1600........<P>Bill
Where did my 1600 post go???<P>
<P>B
Bonnet,<P>HELLO
I am a party crasher here for about a week now, so nice to see and really meet ya!
<P>Hey Murph, Did ya wake up on the right side of the bed? I had a staffer ask me that the other day, cause was a bit grumpy, just told her "Emma, there isn't a right or wrong side to my bed anymore, either side I get up on is MY side" she looked at me and said HUH?<P>Went right over her head! LOL and dang she is a red head to!!!<P>So as I see it, there are to Right sides of the bed now...LOL<P>Good morning to you to Mitz, see you two carried on for a while without me last night...that Lemonade just put me to sleep though, WOO HOO.<P>Drew
Gee,I wonder if Jodie is still awake?<P> From reading that other thread,she's probably cuddled up in MST's arms.
<P> I'm gone all day,and look what happens.<BR> Just my luck.......<P><BR> ~~Murph/AllAlone
Lord Murph,<P>I'm still awake! And I'm not cuddled up anywhere. <P>I had to go to work. I got called in to sit for a 1/2 hour until someone else got there. See? A legitimate excuse. <P>Drew was just keeping me company until you got done doing whatever it was that you were doing! LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie!,<P> You are awake.<BR> Yeah,it was a long day,but they bought dinner.Plus I got an antique grandfather clock(100 yrs old),and rolltop desk.<BR>B!tchin',huh?<P> What did you do today? <BR> Clean house?<BR> Mow the lawn?<BR> Goof off?(just a wild guess)<P> What? Did you tell Drew that you don't look like Jodie Foster?<BR> Well,I'm no Mel,either.I don't know why Lora started that anyway.Still a Danish God,though.......<BR> <BR> I'm real excited my pix made it through.Sometimes they come out a little scrambled,like something out of"The Fly"!<BR> Ready for some more?<P> ~~Murph
<BR>
Murph!!<P>No I didn't tell Drew any different! LOL I do look like Jodie! LOL LOL<P>I cleaned and mowed just a little. I'm saving most of the mowing for my 10 year old lawn boy (my son LOL)!!<P>sure, send more pix. I'm up for a long time now. I had to be wide awake driving to and from work. Gotta watch for deer! LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> So,what do you think of my"house"?
<P> You have a lot of deer around there?We hit a lot of possums here.That,and cats,squirrels,pedestrians......<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Did you send more? If you did, I haven't gotten them yet.<P>That's not your house, is it? Come on, fess up!!<P>We have deer all over the place here. I see so many whenever I'm on my way home from work. They just stand along the road and wait for you to come along and jump in front of you! I ran over a raccoon one night coming home. I felt so bad too. <P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> No,I haven't hit anything,yet.Ran over a few dead things,though(does that count?)<P> I can't believe my mail server sent you the wrong picture.Boy,they're always screwing up.<BR> <BR>You're right,I was teasing you.Actually,that house was in the Seattle Street of Dreams(see all the people?),probably worth about 2 mill$$$$$.<P> Had ya guessing,though,huh?<P> Haven't sent anything yet.I'll see what I can find.Very complicated process.....<P><BR> ~~Murph<BR>
Jodie,<P> Well,......<P> It looks like Mail.Com decided to work on their mail server tonight,of all nights!Down for maintainence!<P> And I was already to send you a real,juicy pix! Guess I'll try again later,sorry.<P> ~~Murph
<P> Uh Oh,<P> I think Jodie fell asleep on me,......again!<BR> (or on the phone with that Drew fella;those darn Nebraskans)<P> OK,so I'm off to bed.<BR> Sure could use a bedwarmer....<BR> Jodie?<P> I better get out of here before Sheryl shows up!<BR> <BR>I'll try to send you some pix tomorrow.<P><BR> ~~Murph
<BR>
Murph,<P>My pager for work kept going off last night and then I fell asleep. Wondful, huh? LOL LOL<P>I knew that couldn't be your house. If you had a house like that, you wouldn't need to do your own yardwork! You could hire someone to do it for you! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Gotta watch these late nights!<BR> Slept in-ZZZZZZZZZZZZ<P> Sent ya another pix,I'll try some more later.Have to do some housework(WORK?!!)<BR> <BR>Coming over to help?<P> Big plans for today?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Got the picture! Thanks! It actually looks alot like WV, minus the water! LOL LOL But the part with the trees is similar. <P>Big Plans? Yeah, finish MY cleaning (I'm a procrastinator!) and wait for the pager to go off! LOL LOL I had to drag my poor kids out to my moms at about 12:30 this morning to go to work for an hour! That sucks!!! It already went off 3 times this morning by 9am. I had to rearrange schedules so that I didn't have to go in!<P>Wanna come over and clean my sons' rooms?? I think it's gonna be a 2 day job! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Taking care of three kids,cleaning house,and working.....<BR> How do you do it all? I'd be a nervous wreck!<BR> <BR> Well,back to work!<BR> Let's see,where'd I leave that vacuum cleaner? In bathroom #5 or #6?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>It's really not that difficult. You just chain the kids in their rooms until they're done. If you don't feed them for a while, they work harder for a meal too! LOL LOL LOL<P>And speaking of nervous wrecks...we had one heck of a thunderstorm here this morning. It's been raining since about 8am. And I'm talking heavy downpours!! There are some areas around me that are flooded! YUK!!!<P>Since you're done with your bathrooms, come over and do mine. I only have one and it's small. Shouldn't take you very long!
<P>Jodie
The fair princess returns.<P>Hey, Drew - did you know you spell Cinderella as if you are making it plural? How many princesses are you stringing along?<P>I have a house and a yard which could both use some work. Right now my mower's on the fritz and needs to go to the shop. Anyone want to cruise over here and help a fair princess in distress. By the time I juggle work, two children, and meals, there is precious little time left for those more unsavory jobs.<P>Murphy- was it you who said "Know what I mean, Vern?" That was Ernest P. Worrell's line. He was played by a local Nashville actor named Jim Varney. Jim died this past spring from some form of cancer. He was a nice guy and well thought of from what I hear. He played one of the voices in the last Toy Story movie. Went to the Oscars last year and Tom Hanks went out of his way to go over and speak to him. Thought he was a nice guy. Just a bit of trivia for you. <P>Jim wanted everyone to know that smoking is a really dumb idea- I think he meant the part where the human is the one who is the sucker and the tobacco product is the thing actually emitting the smoke. Bad ideas - both smoking and sucking on smoking products.<p>[This message has been edited by cinderella (edited August 07, 2000).]
Cindirelli,<P>That is plural huh? We all be danged, I best start calling you Cinderella cause all the kings men can only have one Cinderella in their court. You poor woman, That will be a task!<P>How was your weekend? I didn't do much in my royal kingdom of Omaha to warrant much princessly rewards! In short...I WAS LAZY!<P>I of course would load my truck and trailer with my manly mower and head to TN to mow your yard!<P>(Hey Mitz and Murph, did you see I spelled YARD correctly?...LOL)<P>Kind of an icky day in the Drew Kingdom, Hot, Humid, and worst of all...ITS MONDAY!!!<P>One more hour and it is off to my castle to board up the doors, and turn on my royal PC and see who comes out to chit chat!<P>Glad to hear from you Cinderella, Oh I replied to you questions...did you see. I am always long winded, I can't say just NO, I have to explain why I said no, sort of like I am now...It all means I blab alot! HOT AIR!<P>Drew
Drew,<P>Hey! I'm here!! I think we lost Murph though! LOL LOL He seems to have disappeared. LOL <P>What a day! Just long but not bad...and it was hot here! YUK!!!!!<P>Mitzi
Hey Jodie,<P> I'm over here,trying to get connected!<BR> ISP seems to be working so far.I'm going to call them again tomorrow to get the scoop.<BR> How was your day?<P><BR> Cinderella,<BR> Yup,know all about Jim Varney.My role model.Is he from W VA? He sure made a killing with that act of his.<BR> Know what I mean?<P> Drew,<BR> How's it going in the Drew Kingdom? The Murph Kingdom isn't too bad,even the weather's nice.<P> ~~Murph/HisRoyalMurphness
Murph,<P>My day was BOR-ING!!!! My boss had another staff person scheduled to work with me and we only had one client there. There was no reason for the other guy to be working. He just sat around and watched TV! LOL LOL He did take out the trash though!
<P>Tomorrow will be hectic. We're getting reviewed by the state and we have to get everything ready. There are so many minute details that we have to follow and make sure everything is perfect. At least I only work until 5 pm. I'll be home during daylight hours! LOL LOL <P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> It can get boring at the Lazy B,too.I stay pretty busy,but a lot of redundancy.We have a saying,"Think of the money!".<P> I hope that review goes OK.Some of those state inspectors can be real A**holes.<BR> <BR> Hey,I did read where you told Drew that I only talk to you because you look like JF.<BR>That's not true.I like to talk to you because you seem like a real nice person with a great sense of humor.<P>That,and you're the only one who'll answer my posts! <P>(also,SAOFEP!)
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I could "think of the money" if I was getting paid more for the work I do! LOL LOL LOL<P>I was just teasing when I told Drew that!
<P>I'm off to bed. Gotta get up early and I'm not used to that! LOL<P>Nite-nite,<BR>Jodie
Well, a girl takes off for a few days, and look what happens...<P>Murph, Honey,<BR>I want my picture and some ice cream!<P>Mitz,<BR>How do you keep these guys in line? I have a fryin' pan.... what do you have??? a whip and a chair? LOL!<P>Where is [censored] with the jokes???? <P>I'm not sure if I will be on the next couple of days or not... If I'm not, I won't be back until Monday or Tuesday... I'm having my surgery on Thursday this week, and I they said not to over strain my eyes for a few days after.<P>Well, I'll see ya'll later...<BR>Smooches,<BR>Busty
Hey Busty,<P> Long time,no hear!<BR> Getting the ol' peepers worked on,huh?<BR> Let us know how they turn out.
<P> Ice cream's in the mail,what was the pix of?<BR> My memory serves me incorrectly!<P> ~~Murph
<p>[This message has been edited by Murphy (edited August 08, 2000).]
Murphy - I'm not sure where Jim Varney was actually from although he had lived in Nashville, Tennessee, my home town, for the last 20 or 25 years. Was very well thought of. <P>By the way my sister and I are 2 of the last 12 native Nashvillians in the city. Everyone else is an import. We're so native that even our father was born here.<P>Folks - I got caught on here yesterday afternoon. May have to lay low for a while. Although it didn't hurt when I told boss (remember I do work in a church office presently) that this was Dr. Harley's sight- "You know, the man who wrote "His Needs/Her Needs'". He asked if it was a chat room to which I replied that it wasn't (well, that's true) but that they also had a forum for divorced or divorcing people. May need to humor the man for a few days.<P>I won't go away, though. Just may have to be a bit more scarce. Might find some more work related sites to visit. Broaden my horizons.
Hey guys, sorry haven't been around much, but sort of been a busy guy, and lazy at night! I do hope to catch up with you maybe Wednesday night. I have my normal Volleyball night tonight so won't be on after 7:30 central time.<P>Hi hope everyone is well! Murph, the Drew Kingdom is doing quite well. I think! I am going to Arizona next weekend, Friday through Sunday for interviews down there! Punishment I know, but I need a venue change big time. Start over if you will<P>Hey did you all see the talk on NSR's post about wanting profiles about having a big weekend for those that want to come to like an MB "reunion" or something like that!<P>Go check it out <A HREF="http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/Forum34/HTML/000696.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/Forum34/HTML/000696.html</A> <P>Toss in some input to your thoughts!<P>Drew

Murph...<P>what is a thong? I am not sure I have seen or heard of that...Oh that is what you wear on your feet right?<P>Sorry I can't stay you two, but this prince of the Drew Kingdom must haul his hiney off to bed!<P>GINA...you haven't checked in with us! What's going on???<P>You doing okay, having fun<P>Sorry guys off ot bed...but Murph, please do explain. Those must not have made it to the Midwest yet!<P>but Hawaii would be great if I could afford it!<P>Not sure I WILL move to AZ, just have a couple of interviews there! Have to see. But not sure I can stand that heat down there either...one is Phoenix and the other Flagstaff!<P>Will touch base with you both tomorrow<P>Later<P>GINA...CHECK IN!!!!!!!!!!!

<P> ~~Murph
Yep,<BR> Getting up early sure makes you sleepy in the evening.<BR> I'll bet Jodie is sound asleep on her couch!<P> 'Night,JodieZZZZZ<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Actually I was asleep on the livingroom floor! LOL LOL I hate working 9-5!!! <P>I've only watched "Survivor" one time. Maybe we could start our own show! The MB Survivor! LOL LOL Or we could just pretend! I wanna be the person who tells everyone who gets kicked off. I'm afraid I'd be the first one to go, so I'd be safe that way! LOL LOL<P>Have good day!!<BR>Jodie
Hey guys, I may live in Nebraska, but I was just totally yanking your chains, I know that they are not foot things. Believe me I KNOW! hahahahahaha<P>I was just seeing what kind of reaction I would get. and YES MITZ, I need to get out of Nebraska for sure!

Talk about double standards....<BR> <BR> You ladies are always going on about the young studs in the Speedo's by the local pool.<P> But we talk about women wearing thongs,and your feathers get all ruffled!!<P> Typical!
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Now how long has it been since I mentioned pool studs or Speedos? I was talking about dancers at luaus!
<P>How was today? We had some nasty thunderstorms here. Was expecting 65 mph winds and hail. Only got the rain, thunder and lightning...YIPPEE!! (I hate thunder and lightning! LOL)<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> <BR>The weather is still nice here.Come on up!<BR> <BR> Did Jodie get scared and hide under the covers during the storm? My stbx used to get scared,while I slept through it.Typical male,right?<BR> <BR> It sounds like Hawaii's a go.You better start shopping for that bikini!(SAOFEP!)<P> I can't wait!!
<P> Well,off to bed.Let me know what you pick out!<BR> Night,Jodie/BeachBabe<P> ~~Murph/BeachBum
Hey Murph!<P>It's nice and sunny here now! But it's supposed to get in the 90's! YUK!!!!<P>I didn't hide from the storm. I was at work so I had to act brave.
When I was younger and still living with my parents, I used to wake my brother and sisters up and make them go downstairs if it stormed during the night. I was afraid lightning would strike the house and we wouldn't be able to get out. Sounds dumb but it's true. I was scared to death that the house would burn too fast for us to get out! LOL LOL LOL (My siblings hated me! LOL But they always listened to me about it! LOL) So now you know how much of a chicken I really am!!<P>Jodie
Hey Drew!<P>Got ya a bit flustered there, huh?! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL <P>Focus....deep breath in....exhale slowly....and repeat....feel a little more calm now?
<P>Mitzi
hahahahahahaha...Just had a visional moment there, a good one too! LOL. I have regained consiousness now, and found my way back to what it is I do.<P>I knew that being a pilot was hard to keep a focus on life, but that vision made me lose it for a bit yes.<P>Oh wait, I am not a pilot, I am an Environmental Consultant...OOPS, guess I am still lost here! Dang you guys, behave, your stirring me up here!<P>Drew
Goodness!! Ya'll were a bunch of partypoopers last night. Now that I'be gotten into this thread,(the birthday party did it for me)ya'll are pooping out on me. Nothing posted here for 11 hours. And I won't be here over the weekend.
Cinderella, so sorry, but I was in the party pooper mood last night! Spent half of the freakin' night on the phone with the STBX and she's driving me nuts this week. Oh I am doing okay, I AM, but I was on the phone with her til dang near 12:30 and to be honest, doubt that we accomplished a darn thing! LOL<P>We do get along pretty well, that is what is so freaky about my situation! We get along better now then we did before the documents were signed. WIERD HUH...it is to me at least!<P>So I got off the phone and just unplugged the cord! Was all talked out! So my night, after starting out nice and relaxing with a walk with the dog, and a conversation with a friend ended up with an almost 3 hour conversation with HER on the phone! Oh well, I got over it!<P>I will be out on the town tonight for a while, so I may not catch anyone this evening! This weekend after helping the littlest of the little sis's move, I shall check in<P>Murph...Hows your dad?<P>Gina be safe on your trip home tomorrow okay! <P>Mitzi, MAKE ME SANE...hahahahaha...No I really am sane, just tired and hungry!<P>You guys all take care and will check in later tonight okay! Maybe yet this just grand Friday afternoon (am joking! Not such a grand ole day) LOL<P>Drew
Drew,<P>Before I can make anyone else sane, I need to work on myself! LOL
<P>My stbx just pi**es me off! Called the other night because he said he wanted to see the boys yesterday....Did he show up?? NO! <P>For all you men out there...Don't say you're gonna see your kids, and then not show up. If the kids know about it, it breaks their hearts. If their mom's know, it makes mom EXTREMELY angry!!!<P>OK Done venting! LOL<P>Have a good day! <BR>Mitzi
Mitzi - isn't it so true that "If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy"?<P><BR>Everyone have a safe, fun weekend. Do good work (on yourself and whatever you attempt).<P>Office closed at 2:30. After 5 when I finished. Guess who has a headache? I also have 1/2 a bottle of wine in the fridge. I think I'm going home to relax. I'll have to hide from my children for a while. That's usually a good idea when I have a headache.

What?? Did you all think I was gonna let this thread move to PAGE 2??? NOT HARDLY!!!!<P>I'm going school shopping for my boys today. Not my favorite activity but it needs done! LOL LOL LOL<P>Talk to ya later,<BR>Mitz/Jodie
Jodie,<P> Well,<BR> Did ya shop'til ya dropped???<P> I made it to the beach today!
<P><BR> ~~Murph/BB<P>
Murph,<P>I didn't drop, but I got done! LOL LOL I did have to threaten to leave my youngest in the store though! LOL LOL He bawled for about an hour over a pair of pj's. Ended up buying them so he'd quit crying! LOL What an experience!!!!!! I should have just gotten the coveralls from you. I spent WAY too much money! <P>How was the beach??<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Don't you think clothes are way too expensive,considering most of them are made overseas?<P> I never spent a lot on clothes,but then I don't do business lunches,either.My stbx was a professional clothes horse,though.Once they started that shopping on-line for clothes....Yikes!<P> Yep,you should of gone with the coveralls!<P> The beach was nice,and crowded.<BR> Lots of young,sweet things!<BR> Looking at young,nice guys.
<P> Maybe in my next life.......
<P> How about a weather report?<P> ~~Murph<BR>
Uh,Oh,<P>I think Jodie fell asleep on the floor again.<BR> All that shopping probably wore her out....<P><BR> Or,she could be on the phone with that Darn Drew!!
<P> Well,if she'd rather talk to him,I'm going to bed!(stomping out of room...)<P> <BR>~~Murph
<P>
Murph,<P>No need to be angry! I was on the phone but not with Drew! LOL LOL And I'm not asleep either! LOL
<P>The weather here is about 65. It was about 80 earlier and we had a 15 minute thunderstorm this afternoon. It rained really hard too! <P>I think I'll break out the old sewing machine and start making the kids' clothes! But I did get some good deals today. Everything that I bought was on sale.<P>BTW, how's your dad doing??<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Just giving you a bad time!<P> It's actually cloudy here this morning,but it's supposed to clear up.<BR> <BR>My dad's still a little sore.I helped move some things yesterday,and will probably go over today.He wants to have an electric jack installed on his trailer before they leave,so I'll put one on.<BR> Jack-of-all-trades,master of none,that's me.<P> So,you can sew,too?<BR> Geez,the Perfect Wife!<BR> On top of all that SAOFEP!<P> I still don't trust that Darn Drew.<BR> I think he's trying to cut into my action!<P> ~~Murph

Well kids, I'm back... this will probably get a little long... it's been an eventful few days...<P>I didn't get to have my eyeballs
fixed on Thursday
... the problem the suspected was not nearly as bad as they thought... very mild in fact, but they want to wait 5-6 months and check me again... if all goes well I'll get them done for Christmas!!
I spent a few hours being depressed, but now I'm hopefull... I really wanted to be able to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom w/o having to find my glasses first.<P>I'm going to LA this coming weekend
!! I'm so excited! I was talking to a friend of mine there, and he has a banquet to go to for work (he's getting an award), and he said he didn't want to go alone... Jokingly, I told him I'd go w/ him if he sent me an airline ticket. Well, I got to work the next day and found a confirmation for flights & hotel!! I was shocked. (and happy). <P>Oh yeah, I met someone... someone I might be interested in dating.... ok, I AM interested in dating. He's really nice, and very good looking! (we need a drool icon
) I noticed him (what red blooded woman wouldn't), but didn't really think much of it, until I saw him looking at me every time I looked up in his direction... WOW, what a smile... so I sat down and we started talking (he was working ~ he's a blackjack dealer). He told me his schedule, and the only thing that worked was for me to meet him before his shift and grab something to eat before he started.... then he ended up getting called in early... he still bought my dinner, but only had a 15 minute break to sit and talk... so I went and sat at his table again. <BR>So, we've seen each other 4 times this week... but only when he's working...
yuck... oh well, there's always next week (after I get back), and he should be working days then.... that should save me some money... it's hard to play BlackJack when you arn't paying attention to your cards! LOL LOL.<P>**Sigh** What else??
Oh, yeah... today (8/13) is my one year anniversary... It's been a whole year since I moved out. A whole year of FREEDOM! (well, kinda) [img]
http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] In 10 days it will be 6 months since the D was final... that's real freedom.<P>Well, that's my update... <BR>Smooches,<BR>Busty <BR>
Hey Butterfly,<P>Sounds like you have been a pretty busy women!
<P>I am sooo jealous,your going to go to LA huh?<BR>You lucky duck!!(paid for even better!)
<P>I would love to get rid of my glasses......I can see w/out them......but not that great.<BR>LOL...<P>You found a Man huh?...........the smile gets ya?......yeah,I do know that feeling all to well!!......it is hard to resist when they flash that grin!...LOL<P>You have a safe trip and let us know how it goes!<P>Gina

Hey Busty!<P> Glad to see you back.<BR> Didn't get those peepers fixed,huh?<P> What's this about a new boyfriend?<BR> Good-looking,too?<BR> <BR> Well......Looks like old Murph lost out,again.
<BR> <BR>That's OK....I'll be fine....Don't worry about me....<BR> Plenty of fish in the sea,ya know!<P> <P>Ok,OK,I'm happy for you.
<BR> <BR> (Let me tell you all about those Blackjack dealers,though.He might not be showing you all his cards.Might deal you a bad hand down the road!)<P> You have a great trip this next weekend!<BR> Stay out of trouble.
<P> ~~Murph<P><BR>
Just wanted to add another number to the post. I'm going to be checking on you
UH-OH!! Looks like we have another chaperone!! LOL LOL <P>Hey RC, glad you stopped by! <P>Butterfly,<BR>A man?? You found a man??? Where does one find one of those??? LOL LOL<P>Murph,<BR>How's your dad doing?<P>Gina,<BR>I'm glad you can get along with your H. We can have any kind of party you want, whenever you want. I wish my divorce was final so I could have a party!
<P>Jodie/Mitz
Hey,Jodie,<P> Just getting ready for bed.<BR> My dad's doing fine,a little sore.<P> How are you doing?What about that final review?<P> BTW,I for one,happen to find a farm girl with her arms buried up a cow's behind,pulling out a calf,VERY attractive!(you do have your makeup on when you do that,right?)<P> <BR>Well,that's it.<BR> Busty's new BF is going to take her up the Needle.So,I guess you'll be going instead,you lucky girl,you!<P> So.....where is a farm<BR>girl like you going to find dates around that neck of the woods?<P> ~~Murph
Well Hello!<P>I'm glad your dad's feeling better!
<P>Didn't I tell you that all of us farm girls look and dress like Ellie Mae and Daisy Duke??? LOL (Yeah, right!) <P>I guess to find a date, I'd have to find one at the supermarket, WalMart, the mall...places like that. They're the only places I go! LOL LOL Unless I want to find one in a bar, which I don't. Already had one of those that likes to hang out in bars, don't need another one! LOL LOL<P>I'm off to bed, too. Gotta take some paperwork in early in the morning!
<P>G'Night!<BR>Jodie
Mitzi-did you ever get the drug thief fired?<P>Still wondering where, in my normal life, to meet decent men. They haven't surfaced at work, school, church, grocery store, Target, or anywhere else. I don't know. The decent ones must live under stones.
Hey Cinderella, I guess you could say that I live under a stone...hahahahaha...my home is stone! LOL.<P>Just teasing! Hey hope you all have a great night tonight (Tuesday) It is the final week for volleyball tonight...goin' for the city title here in Omaha...okay in our league we are going for the title, but it is the competative league.<P>anyway, have a great night all, and hope all is well<P>Gina is the AC working yet at home?<P>Sorry I haven't been around much, but been putting out fires, starting them both on here and at "home" too! Been a long week already and it is ONLY Tuesday!<P>UGH!!!!!!!!!
<P>At least I only have to work through Thursday, then off to Blazin' Hot Phoenix AZ for a couple of interviews, spend some time with friends and to chill out, sit in a hot tub and toss back some Corona's! WOOOO HOOOO!!!!<P>Looking VERY forward to hanging out with a buddy of mine that I havent seen in a few years. He's the only person in my life that I feel small around...he is 6-10. Not that feeling "big" matters to a hill of ants, but anyway, guess I am just babbling now<P>I will toss back some Corona's for you all while basking (or baking) in the HOT Phoenix sun this weekend! LOL<P>Hopefully will talk to you all before I take off west for interviews. But if I miss you, everyone be safe, smile, have fun and think about poor ole Drew having to much FUN! hahahahaha<P>TTFN my friends!
<P>Drew
<P>oh now where is my straw hat, my coozie, and swim trunks? Dang time to go searching for the necessities of the weekend!<P>
Big guy - make mine a Bass Ale. BTW, what is a coozie? I hope I didn't just become a sitting duck.
hahahahahaha...Nah your not a sitting duck Cindyrelli! You know the things you put a can of brew in or a bottle in?<P>Dang you know Bass Ale sounds good too...or even better a GUINESS!!!!!<P>Sure i didn't spell it right...Coozie that is...but now you know what I am talkin' about!
<P>Just a thingy to keep the brews cooler longer
For you (and me) that would probably be the Royal Beverage Chill Maintainer. After all, being royalty, we would probably have to speak periodically in governmenteze. And I can't think of anything for this purpose that would sound medieval. Well, this beauteous (self-affirmations are important sometimes) Princess must leave you now. She shall return Thursday. Until then she bids you adieu and prays that the morrow shall be fair and just unto you all.
Have fun in AZ - too hot for the likes of me tho. I'd rather go down to watch some games during baseball spring training......hmmmm, maybe I'll have to talk about that with my Mom and Dad. They're snowbirds that live down there during the winter. Good golf courses too.<P>I know, I know, you'll get tired of hearing about my hacking and whacking at that sometimes stupid little white ball. Why does it always seem to have a mind of it's own? All that slicing couldn't be operator error---noooooo.<P>Speaking of golf (notice how I got that in to the conversation yet again?), that's what I plan to do later this evening...Ladies league tonight. Then, tournament this Saturday. Maybe my anger will help my score - I'll just envision stbx or OW's face on the little white globe and swing with precision and tempo. It's not always how hard you hit the ball but how you swing (just a little life lesson that I just now decided to heed). <P>Have a good day everyone!!
Drew,<P>Have fun in AZ!!! Couldn't you have picked a cooler time to visit the desert though?!
<P>Cinderella,<P>I guess we've all been a little lazy lately! I know I have!
Come on guys!! Gotta get to 2000 before Christmas! LOL LOL<P>Claire,<P>Hey! Why not draw a face on the ball? Or better yet, glue one of stbx on it! LOL LOL Might make your aim better! LOL LOL<P>Murph,<P>How're your parents? Are they getting everything ready for the move?<P>Mitz/Jodie
Mitz,<P>The way I figure it...the hotter the better..LOL!!!!!!<P>don't ya worry about ole Drew, he will be nice and cool out there! there are ways to keep cool...Corona's, pools, hot tubs, and AC!!!!!<P>I am looking forward to this trip very much...I THINK!<P>Had a trip a couple of weeks ago that was Fabulous though too. So sort of taking mini vacations here and there!<P>Take care Mitz...may talk to ya tonight!<P>Drew
Drew,<P>I WANNA GO ON A TRIP!!! (yes, I'm whining! LOL) I never get to go anywhere. The farthest I've been west of WV is Detroit. And that was a 17 hour trip. Drove 7 hours, stayed 3 hours and drove 7 back home. (Long story! LOL) I'd like to show my kids so much of the US.(And I'd get to see it too! LOL)<P>Don't forget about those of us who are stuck at home, day in and day out!
(guilt trip there!)<P>Mitz
Hey Mitz,Drew,and Claire!!<P>Mitz,!!!!<P>Ya know I have been staying up later more than normal and wouldn't you know your not around!!.....(Oh,I know ya talking on that phone w/Mel/YG/BB!!)....LOL
<P>I do know what you mean about getting out and seeing the world! It is so hard when you do have kids!<P>That is the one blessings(and I do hate to say that all of this is a blessing!)that has come out of all of this mess is the fact that bc of my stbx taking the kids every other weekend it has given me the time to go and do what I want!!....HURRAY!.....it is Mommy time!
<P>Drew,<P>Hey MST,It will be a hot one there but hey you can handle it!!......LOL<P>I do know what you mean about having the Corona's keeping you cool!!.....Had some last night w/my stbx,and w/no AIR yet it was hotter in here than out side.....YIKES!!<BR>(the C didn't keep me cooler but it did make me happier!.....Ha....LOL)<P>Claire,<P>Welcome to the party!!.......<BR>Yeah......maybe you can give me some pointers on the golfing thingy!!.....LOL<BR>(I am soooooo bad!!.....people RUN when they see me coming!!)......LOL<P>Murph,<P>Where are you buddy???<BR>Working hard????.......LOL....or hardly working??<P>How is your Dad doing?.....Mom too?<P>You all take it easy!!<P>Gina

I thought I might as well type here as much as anywhere else......<P>stbx had to come over to take pictures of the truck for his insurance and to get some work stuff. UGH. I wish I hadn't been here. I'm too mad to be nice.<P>Gina,<P>I don't think I'd be the one to take lessons from, but I'd be glad to walk the links with you anytime. Handicap used to be about a 20 but has gone up drastically since this s**t with stbx started four years ago. But I'm still hacking and whacking and trying to concentrate on keeping relaxed even if I do harbor hatred in my pea pickin' little heart right now. Whew.....that feels better.<P>Okay, on with the party. Golf tonight (let's see - about 2 hours and counting down) and then out with the gals that I golf with. We go out for a brew afterwards - it's gal get together time with no kids. It is nice
Knock, Knock, can I join this party for a second?<P>We need votes on which weekend and where to meet on the MB mid winter weekend.<P>See my posts, and post your votes.<P>This weekend is for the winners of MB's who want to meet and exchange pictures,and generally get to know the faces behind the names.<P>gotta go, thanks for the beer!<P>thl

<P><BR> ~~Murph<P> <BR> <P>
MURPH!!<P>Hey! How ya doin"? <BR>I know how it is with the move. Last year my grandma went into a nursing home and I had to help pack up her stuff. It was hard because I basically grew up there. <P>If Dollywood isn't in Nashville, it's close by. Fly out in January. Me and Dana are gonna go!!!!! You can take your own pictures then! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Hey Mitz,<P>Hows it going?<P>You gonna ride w/Dana and Thl,sounds like a plan!......(better pack light.....LOL)<P>So have you found someone that can watch the kids?.....<P>Hey,........we can put Murph in charge of the Ice-Cream!!.......LOL<P>Murph,<P>Hey there YG,ya out there tonight??<P>How is the moving/packing going?<P>Can you all believe that I am still up!<BR>LOL<P>Gina

Sorry I didn't make the party last night. I was too ticked about my golf game - that darn operator error stuff again. Actually, I played pretty average - I'm saving my real game for Saturday when there's $$ involved.<P>Murph - <P>Dollywood is in (I believe) Pidgeon Forge (sp?), TN - it's in the Smokies, supposed to be really pretty through those mountains, but I don't know about going there in January.<P>And since we're speaking of Nashville - there's another song that I <B>really</B> like right now. It is by Aaron Tippin (sp?). I'm not sure if it's the name of the song but the basic line is - "Kiss This, and I don't mean on my rosy red lips." Okay, now that song is running through my head - <P>Have a good one everybody.
I'm back but will be scarce for a few days. I saw the thread about Nashville. Dollywood is 3 or 4 hrs. away. What do ya'll (that's a southern expression found in everyone's vocabulary here - at least all 12 of us who are native Nashvillians) want to do. See the thread about coming. I really need someone else who can be in charge of seeing what all I need to do and telling me to go do it. I'm a good "gopher" just not a good organizer.
<P>Don't know how much trouble having it SuperBowl weekend would cause in terms of finding a bunch of rooms. If Titans go, may cause more trouble, may cause less.
Are we going to 1700 today?
YOU CHEATED CINDERELLA!!!!!
<P>Dang Gina turns the pages to 100 and now Cinderella turns the 1700'th post on this thread....Now is that anyway to treat an MST Prince...I think NOT...hahahahahaha<P>So what you two going to do to even this up a little???? HUMMMM I want to know!!! come on tell me!!!!<P>Bass Ale anyone???? hehehehehehe...boy will that be flowing this weekend...that or anything else!<P>Take care everyone! Off to sit in my barber's throne and let her carefully trim me up and remove some of this dad gum gray hair!<P>TTFN<BR>Drew
<P>hahahahahahaha...I got post 1701 so there!
If I were in first or second grade, I'd say:<P>"Missed me, missed me. Now ya gotta kiss me"<P>but I'm not so I'll say "Nyanyanyanyanyanya."<BR>You snooze, you lose. Well, no one was around so it was mine for the taking. If no one else comes around, this thing could die before it makes 2000. Are we gonna let that happen. Ya'll have turned into a bunch of lazybones. But then, Drew does have his own party thing happening.
Hey did ya'll miss me????<BR>Well, don't get to used to seeing me around for a while.... I've been one busy bug!<P>Mruph,<BR>Honey, don't sweat the new guy... YOU will still be able to take me to the Needle. (I'm not gonna bring along anyone to spoil my fun!)<BR>It's been raining for days here....
I like rain, but not for days and days w/o stop... guess I'd never be able to live in WA or OR. So, I'm heading to LA and a sunny warm beach! Yipeeee!!!<P><BR>Mitz,<BR>How goes it? I'm gonna go look at the thread for Nashville.... I'll probably be there... I'll have a free airline ticket by then

I need to chill out so I can relax and enjoy the weekend!<P>I'll try to check in later today (before I take off), if not, I'll see ya'll either Sunday night or Monday!<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty (the soon to be tan and relaxed beach babe!)

Mailman,<P>Do ya think?.......well,good for her!<BR>(sorry Murph)I bet she is tired of the SM as well!!
<P>Yeah.....I bet you did miss your chance,gotta be a little quicker there Murph ole buddy!.........the girl won't wait for ever ya know!!.....LOL<P>So what ya think about the meting in Nashville?......I have a count now of about 14.Only of wich 5 of them are Male!....LOL<P>Already saving as we speak.........can't wait.I do wish it could be a little sooner but yeah......beggers can't be choosers!<P>Gina
<P>
Morning all!!<P>The coffee is perkin' & bloody mary's waitin for me. Golf tournament day in not so sunny Seattle.....wish me luck.....I'm gonna need it....that is if my hands don't freeze off first. Is Fall early this year, or what?<P>Oh, well, the weather doesn't matter. I'm doing something for myself.<P>Have a great day everyone
Better enjoy this - a rare Saturday post from your local Royal Princess!!
Actually, I volunteered to come in and clean up the mistake a minister (male, of course) made
<P>Murphy, thanks for the prize. I'm sure I'll enjoy it. I know my neighbors will. 100 hrs. should be about enough.
I just hope Drew doesn't mind. If so, he may be truly blue. <P>I need to bellyache - anyone care if I wallow for a minute? Was going to go do some post-birthday shopping with current date's mom and then to a play with both of them. D was invited to friend's for night. S invited to my mom's. Called to make arrangements for D. Invitation was withdrawn because of later arrangements hosts made.
<P>All this on top of PMS. My body feels like an alien's body this week. Don't know what it is. Regular PMS or perimenopause. Both deserve
faces. <P>Now my plans are shot out of the water.
I am so annoyed that I could just spit.<P>But, on the other hand, I have the chance to spend an evening with two of my favorite people. What's so bad about that. I just don't have as much stimulating adult contact as I would like. And we were going to go see a wild west version of "As You Like It" at an ampitheatre in a park.<P>Between my legs hurting, (I think my chair at work is adjusted wrong), my breasts feeling like they ought to explode, the rest of my body feeling like I've gained five pounds (at least), my plans getting cancelled, the graphics component of my powerpoint program not working on my computer at work, knowing my children are going to be disappointed at the cancellation of their plans, no wonder I'm so grouchy.<P>Oh well, thanks for listening - sort of.<BR>
Murph,<P>No, I don't have a BF! I've just been soooo busy lately. One of the guys I work with was in the hospital Thursday and Friday so, guess where I spent alot of time! LOL I've even been going to bed fairly early.<P>Then me and the boys went to an amusement park in PA with some friends today. Actually we just got home!
<P>But I'm around now!!!<P>Jodie
<P>
Jodie,<P> I was going to call out the W VA State Police!<BR> I thought maybe you did yourself in with that ShowerMassager!
<P> Yeah,I've been busy,too.Even going to bed earlier.This moving stuff wears you out.Where's the Drewster when you need him?<P> So,what park did you go to? What do they have there? Any 300'rollercoaster's for ya?<BR>I know,you went on the Merry-go-Round,and then pleaded with the guy to stop it!<P> Had a bunch of rain yesterday,but now it's nice again.How about there?<P> You know,I really fiqured you were seeing that guy who was showing you his tattoo's.<P> Well,I'm off to the beach with the dog,then get some dinner.Probably stop by later.<P> Are you sure that guy with the tattoo's hasn't been coming around....<P><BR> ~~Murph
<P>
Murph,<P>HEY!! Can't do myself in with the shower massager if I don't have one! (Poor me!
)<P>We went to Lakemont Park in Altoona, PA. It does have 2 rollercoasters but I didn't ride 'em! They're the old wooden coasters too! NO WAY!!!! I rode the merry-go-round, tilt-a-whirl, and scrambler. My older 2 rode everything. My youngest has been riding the tilt-a-whirl and scrambler since he was 16 months old. I always did put him on with me and he loves them. I told him if he cried they'd make us get off so he yells "YEE HAW!" when he's on them! LOL LOL (I told him to say it so he wouldn't get scared! LOL LOL)<P>The guy with the tattoos was the cable guy! LOL I haven't heard from him since. Godd thing too. I'd hate to have to break his heart. He really wasn't my type! LOL LOL LOL<P>The weather has been pretty good here. It was about 80 today but it's been getting down in the low 60's at night. A couple of nights it even got in the 50's. I thought I was gonna freeze!!!<P>Have fun at the beach!<P>Jodie
Murph & Mitzi <P>Just woke up from a very brief nap after golf. Now going to some friend's home for dinner. Golf was - okay - shot beneath my handicap so I actually {b]won[/b] $$. Enough to cover my entry fee - plus some skins $$. (skins is when you beat the field on a single hole with your handicap - in my case it means I birdied a couple of holes and got strokes so I won money!!) Not that you really care about my golf game - but I had fun. Dang handicap is still too high, but if it was lower (with the way I played today) I would have won didly squat.<P>Wanted to add to your post - not much going on today - huh?<P>Type at you later.
Hey Gang,<P>Ok, enough with the exploding breasts and pain beween the legs! Did I read that right? Cinderella, what exactly are you doing with that pumpkin?<P>Hey, did anyone see True Lies with Arnold "Giff me your address" Schwarzenegger? I was waiting for WilliamJ to get here and threw it in the VCR.<P>There is a line in the flick where one guy is telling Arnold about his XW. "She even took the ice cube trays out of the freezer, What kind of a sick B!tch takes the ice cube trays?"<P>Ok, it may not be funny, but, it just goes to show that I have made progress. I wouldn't have been able to watch this a few weeks ago. Movies with affairs just hit a raw nerve. I have healed.<P>Where the hell was I going with this? Oh, yeah. Medic is back to his normal self. Stay tuned for pics of Bill and Tim's Big Adventure.<P>Wishing us all the Best.<P>The Zipman.
Hey Zippy,<P> How ya doing,ya old fart?<BR> Glad to see you back,well,sort of,kinda,maybe...<BR> <BR> Ok,so I wish my stbx will watch the first 5 minutes of"Hope Floats".I actually watched it all the way through,because it really hit home what this does to people.<P> Just wanted you to know I don't have to tie a porkchop around my neck to get my dog to play with me anymore(a chicken bone works just fine).
<P><BR> Jodie,<BR> Ok,so I'll bite.WHAT is your type?(this has absolutely,positively,nothing to do with me)<P> Let me guess.<BR> A big guy,red-checkered flannel shirt,suspenders,3-day whisker growth,deer-hunting coat and cap,chews on cigars,belches while watching TV,and says things like"Will ya bring me'nother beer,Babe?"<P> Am I close???
<P><BR> Hey,Rcoaster,<BR> Where abouts do you live?<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>ROTFLMAO!!! OMG!! You're just too funny!!!!! No, that is NOT my type!!! Almost describes my dad though...almost but not quite! LOL LOL LOL LOL<P>My type....hmmmmmmm...1st, has to get along really good with kids, and not mind that I have 3 of them. No big drinkers...already had one of those. Likes to do things with family (mine and his), can hold a steady job, good communicator, good sense of humor, a little romantic. Looks aren't really important...a heart is. <P>I can't even really think of what my type is. The only type I ever had was my stbx's type and I don't want anyone like him. So, I guess I have to be pretty picky. Especially when it comes to my kids. He HAS to like kids and the idea of being around them a lot. <P>Ok, it's early and now my brain is hurting!
<P>TIM!!!!<P>Hey! Glad to see you around! Sounds like the Zip Man might be back to his ole hilarious self! <P><BR>Have a great day, everyone!!<BR>Mitz/Jodie
OH Murph,<P>Who are you calling an old fart? Why I otta kick your f..<P> oops hang on time for my nap..................<P>OK, Where was I? Oh, yeah.<P>The chicken bone may work with a dog, but I found that if you have candy you can attract the young girls.
Just kidding, licorice works best.<P>Kiss the bunny! God, I am back! What a sick pup.<P>It feels good to be me again. I missed me.<P>Wishing us all the Best.<P>Zippy
Murph,<P>OMG......I loved "Hope Floats"......<BR>(I cried my eyes out mind you but still is one of my fav-)
<P>I wouldn't listen to Medic about the licorice tho...........(you remember the little different colored candy on a necklace,those would work just fine!)
<BR>LOL<P>Mitzi,<P>Hey there girl......you must be working hard.<BR>I will be soon.......(like tomorrow)
<P>It is funny bc I think that we may be looking for the same type!..........if you find him ask if he might have a brother for me!.....
<P>Medic,<P>It so great to hear from you again!!
<P>Mitzi is right it is great to see that you are back to your self!<P>Psssttt....don't tell Murph this but I do think that he is needing some help here,(you know there are sooo many of us women here!)<BR>LOL
<P>Hang out w/us............just goofing around!<P><BR>Oh.......Murph,<P>Just kidding Man.........(you have been doing a fine job keeping all of us in line!)<P>It is the DRESTER that you have to worry about!.....LOL<P>Take it easy you all!!<P>Gina

Hey Gina!<P>I have to go back to work tomorrow too.
But it's basically like I work all weekend too. The one boy that I work with calls me anytime there is a problem at the house. Any minor complaint and he calls me right away to let me know! <P>Oh, guess what??? They couldn't fire the ritalin thief!!!!! She waited 2 weeks to come in so legally there was nothing they could do about it. I did pre-pack meds and locked up the extras so she couldn't get to them. BUT then she called off last night! What a joke!!!<P>And if I do find the right type of guy, I'll ask about a brother. That type is just soooo hard to find here. Small town with a lot of losers...go figure!<P>Mitz
Hi everyone!!<P>STBX is here, packing things up for his move (for the how many times is it now?) I don't even remember. Can't help but get into 'some' ugliness......oh well. The sooner he's gone the sooner I don't have to live with the ugliness anymore.<P>Murph - I'd tell you about my whereabouts, but you would think I'm a snob because of where I live. The thing is, I was here before the snobs moved in (grew up here and then managed to move back). B.I. - have a great view of Seattle from my deck - you guess where it is from the initials above.
Hey Gang,<P>Just hanging out in the Big Apple...Daph Ri..New York City.....My friends went to bed so here I am pecking away on thier PC...Wait til y'all see the pics from Medic and WilliamJ's big adventure...We really tore up the town...I don't think they'll let be back...<P>Actually it was really cool meeting someone that I know very well for the first time...Hey Zippy I can't find that waitresses phone#...ooops...sorry I was spposed keep that quiet....<P>Well gang I'll check in from Canada when I get to Dylan and Deut's...<P>Bill
Gosh,Bill,<P> I hope you didn't sleep in the same room as Zippy.You know,there's something a little strange about a guy who keeps hitting himself in the head with a hammer(and likes it).Like to see those pix,though.<P><BR> Jodie,<P> I could swear you were describing me!<BR> <BR>Kids are OK,as long as they're well-behaved,don't make any noise,and address me as"Sir".<P>I'm not a big drinker(just an average-size drinker).<P>I'm a good communicator(I can yell real loud)<P>I can hold a steady job(my boss can yell real loud).<P>I have a good sense of humor(good and warped)<P>I can be a little romantic(very little).<P>Looks aren't important?(that's good)<P><BR> Looks like I'm your man!<BR> <BR>Unfortunately,I don't have a brother for Gina.Sorry,Gina.I'll send Zippy over.....<P><BR> Hey RCoaster,<BR> You're not one of those Bainbridge Island snobs,are you??
<P><BR> ~~Murph
<P>
Murph - <BR>I'm caught
It's just where I live, not who I am..........like I said, I was here first and sometimes I really get ticked off at the newbies........okay, probably too much information.<P>Medic - sorry about you and Val. For some reason I thought you and I were going to make our marriages work - we tried. We can have a pity party sometime. Well, maybe not, I'm more into enjoying a new life without misery for company, but you can join in that celebration if you wish. Missed your sense of humor
<P>Mitzi - Are you really going to Nashville? I'd love to go........just don't know about the finance part. I sure don't want to drive! I'd get there just as the party was ending and then have to turn around and go home. I guess I could rig something up.......
I love country music!<P>
Hey Gang,<P>Mitxi,where are you girl??????<BR>You asleep already!......(it must be my turn now to stay up and keep Murph inline!!)
<P>Murph,<P>LMAO.......man I don't know where you come up w/this stuff,but you just kill me!<P>And it is ok........if the MST Drewster was around you could just send him my way!<BR>(no offence medic!!)
<P>I have got to get to bed........YAWN.........<BR>getting up early tomorrow!...UGH.<P>Take it easy and have a good one!<P>Gina

<P><BR> Gina,<P> I can sense it.Jodie's got a"thing"going with that cable guy.Probably wants to show her his tattoo's.<P> I guess I'm getting turned down flat...again!
<P> Oh,well.....Goodnight,"GINA"!!!<P><BR> ~~Murph/Hasbeen
Hey everyone!!<P>No, not with the cable guy! Just late getting here! (BTW...the cable guy was from Alabama...was only in town for a few days) <P>Murph,<P>You seriously crack me up!!!! I guess you are the man of my dreams!
<P>Gina,<P>It's getting harder and harder to keep them in line isn't it? Especially now since Bill and Tim have stepped in! LOL LOL<P>Claire,<P>I'm gonna try to go to Nashville. Tennessee isn't that far away from WV and I think it would do me good to get away for a weekend. I'm not the biggest fan of country music but I can tolerate it. <P>Where are all of you sleepyheads??<BR>Jodie/Mitz
RISE AND SHINE!!!!!!!<P>I've started rounding up info for our shindig.
)
<P>WE NEED MORE MEN!!!!!!
<P>I need a big bunch of you to come and shout Yipee!! if I actually get this pulled off. Think of it as doing something for a friend who needs to prove that she actually can get something organized. Or think of it as a grown-up version of spring break. Only we should be old enough, maturity wise, to exercise better judgement than college students. <P>We don't have to do country music - but we could. I just don't have anything definite lined up. Now, if I only knew how to build a web site with graphics, I could really do this right. I don't though, hmmmm. How do do this? <P> <P>
BTW, I actually caught most of the Arena Bowl game on tv yesterday. The Nashville Cats lost by a field goal at, literally, the last second. Ball was still in the air as the buzzer sounded. Was a pretty good game. I still think they should play the game with "little people." I realize that is a politically incorrect statement but, everytime I think about it, I think it would just be so perfect.<P>I've only been to one AFL game and this is a true spectacle. It's more like a party with a little football at the intermissions. Not to belittle the players. And, afterall, Nashville now has the runners up in major league football and arena football. It really makes no difference to me whether either team folds or wins. Won't put money in my pocket. But their facilities take my tax money. So, there you are, there's more here than whiney music. And, a few years ago, there were more stocks and bonds traded daily in Nashville than in any city in the US besides New York. But now all our local trading houses and banks have been bought out. Interstate banking took care of that. <P>Another reason to come to Nashville is to see the Batman building - as everyone calls it. We have a building downtown with a roofline that looks like Batman's headwear.<BR>
Cinderella,<P>We SHOULD be able to act better than college students...but will we??!!
<P>MEN...Where are you?????<P>Mitzi
Hey Gang, me again!<P>Hi RC,<P>Yeah, it looked like things were going well. Hey, no autopsy, no foul. AND NO pitty party for me, hope not for you either. It's their loss not ours. I'm doing really well now that I made the decision to end this mess.<P>I'm getting the nerve up to call an old, well she's not that old about 26, friend of mine and see if she'll go out to dinner with me. She is a dispatcher for the 911 center here. Lucky I have a radio and can hear when she's working.
My son's only request is that his next step mother is older than he is. Is 26 too young for a 40 year old? I have the mentality of a 12 year old, so she is actually older than me.<P>Oh and Gina, I see how it is. Sure now that you have someone sniffing, you throw me and Murph out into the cold. Real nice! How do you sleep at night?<P>Hey Mitzi, First thing I thought of was Jim Carrey. CABLE GUY! Getting free premium channels, huh.<P>Cinderella, you never answered my question about what you're doing with that pumpkin and the pain between your legs!<P>GADS, I am back to normal, well at least for me.<P>Are you guys really heading down to Tenn? I'm seriously considering it.<P>Wishing us all the Best.<P>Zippy the Pinhead.
Oops, dopey me. It did go thru. Sorry, my mistake. Forgive me? Cuse me, pardon me, cuse me.<p>[This message has been edited by MEDIC238 (edited August 21, 2000).]
Tim,<P>I thought of the same thing! CABLE GUY!!! I'm glad he wasn't actually like that. I don't know though...he was at my house for about 20 minutes and started taking his shirt off! LOL LOL (To show me his tattoos!) Why do I get all the weirdos????
Must be that bum magnet in my as* that attracts them! LOL LOL LOL<P>Have a good day everyone!!!<P>Mitz
Medic--You bad boy! Trying to malign my royal reputation.<P>By the way. I am doing nothing too weird with the pumpkin.
You just wish you could be here to see what all I can do with it, though.
<P>Come on to Nashville this winter. I am planning, or so it appears, a weekend for these total strangers who have met on an internet bulletin board established for divorced/divorcing people. A church secretary planning a weekend like this where she is a participant not an outsider.
<BR>Oh well, how many church secretaries would list dancing as their favorite form of exercise - just ahead of ice skating and swimming.<P>Besides, I didn't mention a pain between the legs - you did. Do you know what caused yours? It must be yours because it's not mine. By Wednesday my body should be back to normal.<P>I guess I could get man I've been seeing this summer to work on the breasts
but we're trying not to do that. Too much too soon makes it all too confusing. I better get back to work and get my mind off that.
Greetings & Salutations Everyone!<P>Can someone <I><B>please</I></B> send me some asprin... lots of asprin, and maybe some Advil?!?! My whole body aches.... even my toes are sore... But, I do have a HUGE
on my face! EEEGAD.... even my teeth hurt!
Oh well, I guess I'm getting what I deserve for acting like a 20 year old!
<P>*Sigh*... I think I crammed a whole week's worth of partying into 36 hours! Well, when I go back next month, I'll have more time... and this time I won't forget to take my camera! <P><BR>Murph, <BR>Are you ready to take me to the Needle? Less than a month before I head out that way! Maybe all the MBer's in the area would like to get together for lunch, dinner and/or drinks? (a preview of the trip to Nashville
). <BR>If you will email me, I'll send you the dates I'll be there so we can try to work something out.<P>Mitz,<BR>If your drug thief didn't show up for 2 weeks, why couldn't she be fired? You could have gotten her for excessive absence or abandonment of job unless she had a valid excuse.<P>Zippy,<BR>Welcome Back!! I'm glad you are back to your normal (if Twisted) self!
So, when do we get to see the pics of your big adventure with Bill??<P>Gina,<BR>I misplaced the info you sent me about that hotel... (can't remember the name). I'm going to check out digital city Seattle and look around there too, but it's nice to know from the locals where the nice areas are... besides Murphy's Spider, Rat & Ghost infested basement
!<P>Clair,<BR>I didn't realize you were in the Seattle area... I'm going to have my clubs when I'm out there next month, maybe we could get together and play 9 (if you don't mind playing with a z rated player! lol
) I'm so bad, I usually don't even attempt to keep score.... takes too many fingers & toes to count that high!<P>Well folks, I need to get back to work... I'll check back in later tonight! (or this afternoon, if the boss leaves
).<P>Smooches,<BR>

Ok - I'm lost. Where is the thread with the Profiles and the e-mail addresses? I find it periodically but usually I hunt like a crazy woman for it.
<P>Please, help me out here.<P>Thanks!!!!!
Okay.....I don't get on to my computer very often. It is being hogged by a teenager and a preteen!!!! Heaven Help Me
<P>Murph - I haven't answered you because I have a very limited time on my computer - <B>and</B> I'm just a busy person.......now, now, don't take that the wrong way......I just meant that I don't get a chance to log on to chat with ya'll as much as I might like to.<P>Busty - oh, fellow golfer. You Betcha you can golf with me when you're in town!!!! I think that would be most fabulous!! Email me at CE2639@aol.com and we can set something up. <P>Tim - I'm glad you're not going to a pity party either. Good for us!! Doesn't it just seem like a big relief to have finally made the decision? (Okay, so I went back on my decision about 3 times, but this time it sticks)<P>Okay, I'm going to submit this reply now and then go do something for about a half hour and maybe it will be done by then....
here's one<P><A HREF="http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/Forum29/HTML/000166.html" TARGET=_blank>Roll Call Index</A><P>then there is another one
Clair, <P>OK... I posted my email on your other thread.... maybe we could set up an MB Tournament at Pebble Beach some time LOL LOL!<P>Mitz,<P>Yes, the pain is starting to subside... at least the alcohol induced pain
. I'm still sore all over..... I haven't danced that much in the last 7 years combined!<P>I've got a job like that! But then Mom said she'd kill dad if he tried to fire me!!
LOL.<P>I will take pictures!!! Lots & Lots of Pictures.... I just got a new Telephoto lens for my digital camera for the spy work
. Maybe Clair will let me use her computer to send them ASAP! LOL LOL<P><BR>Murph,<BR>Don't read what I wrote to Mitz... It wouldn't interest you at all.
(do they make telephoto lenses for digital cameras???)<P>Golly Gee Wiz... I'm in a good mood today, even if it takes me 1/2 hour to get out of my chair! I really needed to go out and just cut loose... it felt so great! Those guys in LA sure know how to throw a party!! I'm just worried.... I was only there for 36 hours this trip... next time I'm gonna be there for 6 days...
!<P>Sorry I didn't join in the party last night... I went home and collapsed on my bed... woke up at 7 this morning with the lights on in the kitchen, and still dressed! <P>Gotta get back to work... just cuz he can't fire me doesn't mean he doesn't yell!<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty
Jodie,<P> Well,if you can't get fired from your company,I guess that's a good thing,huh?(for you!)<BR> No,once Jodie finds out I don't look like Mel,she won't talk to me anymore.
<P><BR> Busty,<P> Don't worry,I have a camera too.Payback's a b*tch!<BR> When we get up the Needle,I'll take a pix of the full moon over Seattle!!!
<P><BR> ~~Murph
~~~HEY~~~~<P>Murph & Butterfly - Is this trip to the Needle only for the two of you? Think you might need a chaperone? I haven't been up there since a friend's wedding about 8 years ago.......I bet the view has changed......especially that one of the moon......
<P>I didn't think my replies were posting on the (sound of rolling thunder in the background) <B>MEGA THREAD</B>, but at least one got through......okay, going away for about a half hour again after submitting reply.....hope this reply gets there to ya'll. (See, I'm practicing for Nashville)
Jodie,<P> Sure,you could stand on the ground,and wave to us,................and then we'd grab you and pull you into the elevator with us!!!<P> You could wave to the people on the ground,as we're going up,Up,UP!!!
<P><BR> RCoaster,<P> Well,we could use a driver.
<P><BR> ~~Murph/George?
Murph,<P>You honestly don't want to be responsible for the death of a JF look-alike do ya?! I would scream, kick, cry, puke and eventually pass out! LOL LOL LOL<P>Jodie

<P>
GINA!!!!<P>I'M HERE!!!! <P>Everything is going good here. The boys start school Monday...FINALLY!!
They are a bit disgusted because I won't get to see them much though. I'm going to take Monday off so I can be here when they get home. <P>Did you see what Murph is trying to do to me?? He's going to force me to go up the Space Needle!!! (I'll bet he's gonna push me when we get to the top! LOL LOL)<P>Jodie
Hey........Hi there!<P>That is great that you can be there for them.<BR>I bet that they are excited.....well,maybe more you than them........LOL<P>I know that I am!
<P>Yes......I did read that he is going to drag you up........but I don't really think that pushing you off is what he has in mind!<BR>
...........LOL<P>I think that would be blast......it has been years since I went up!.....(all of my Dads side of his family all live out that way!)<P>You have got to get out there!.........<BR>So,when ya going........let good ole Yard God/GC......give ya the tour!<P>Gina
<P>
Gina,<P>I'm really excited for Kyle (my oldest). He's going to a different school this year. He's sooooo nervous! <P>What else would a man want to do to a woman on top of an extremely tall building???
LOL LOL<P>I'd really like to go out...just don't know when I'll be able to.<P>Mitz
Jodie,<P> No,I wouldn't push you off.<BR> <BR>That was the Student that was going to push me off for putting my hands......never mind!<P> Maybe the hot tub is a bad idea.It might be going over the side with me,along with the candles....<P> ~~Murph/FlatasaPancake
Murph,<P>You might as well push me if you're gonna drag me on the elevator. Almost the same effect! LOL LOL<P>How in the hell do you plan on getting a hot tub on the Needle anyway?? <P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Well,it's either fly it in with a helicopter,or drag it up the outside stairs.<BR> I hope they have enough water to fill it.<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I think flying it in would be your best option! And yeah, it would be nice to have water in it!
<P>How's your dad?<P>Jodie
Jodie,<BR> <BR> He had to go back in the hospital for some more tests.We're sitting on pins and needles.They have to be out by the end of the month,but they have movers coming in.They'll stay in their trailer at the local KOA for a short while before heading south.It'll be real strange not to go back to their house anymore.(well,I could,but I'd probably get arrested)<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I hope all the tests come back okay. <P>It would be weird not going back anymore. I have a hard time getting used to not going to my grandma's anymore. (She's in a nursing home now). <P>Hopefully he gets a clean bill of health before they have to move.<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> I hope she's in a better nursing home than that poor guy on the news.<BR> Yeah,I hope my dad is going to be OK.<BR> <BR>Do you still stay up late,or have you been getting to sleep earlier? I'm going to bed soon.Been a tiring week,and I'm not even sure why.Two more days to go.How about you?<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Grandma is in a good nursing home here in Keyser. Someone stops to check on her everyday.<P>I'm still up late alot of the time. I did go to bed early a couple of nights but it's nothing regular! LOL Just don't need a lot of sleep I guess.<P>TWO MORE DAYS! AND I CAN'T WAIT!!!! <P>Hey! Guess What?? I heard that Stone Cold Steve Austin is going to be in Keyser Saturday!!!!!!! How cool is that?! Just might have to go check that out for myself! Might get a few pictures!!!!!<P>Jodie
Gosh darn it!<P> I'll bet Jodie's on the phone with that tattooed cable guy,again.<BR> I don't know what women see in those kind of guys anyway.Probably gettin'all the premium channels for free......<P><BR> ~~Murph
Jodie,<P> Oh,off the phone with the cable guy now?<BR> You really go for those wrestler guys,huh?<BR> <BR> ~~Murph
Jodie,<P> Well,I'm off to bed.<BR> Have a good day today/tomorrow.<BR> Send me a pix of Jodie and Steve,will ya?<P><BR> ~~Murph/ZZZZZZZ
Mel the Tour Guide...<BR>This sounds soooo cool! I want to go to the Needle, and I want to go see the flying fish! (I've seen that on TV.) If you and Claire (and anyone else there who wants to join in) could take the day off, we could all go. As long as you don't gang up on me and try to push me over the edge!
<P>I'm not afraid for you to take my picture... although it might break your camera
. <P>Mitz...<BR>Bock Bock Bock... LOL LOL (those were chicken noises there
)<BR>Just kidding
.<BR>I'll take lots of pictures... then when I'm in CA, I'll try to find Mel and get a pic of him too.... we can always superimpose his face on Murph's body... or the other way around.
Or, we could just scrap the pics of Murphy and keep Mel!
<P>Well, the auditor will be here soon, so I'd better get back to work. I'll check back in this afternoon.<P>Smooches,<BR>The Tourist
A Driver??????? Oh, you want me to bring my driver so we can practice tee shots????? I'll bet you want to try to hit a golf ball across the Sound to my house, dontcha? What will the Taxi Driver think when I get in the cab with my golf bag?<P>So, no chaperone, huh? I'd still like to tag along if that's okay - if I can get that day off - what day? Is she going to be here over a weekend? Butterfly and I are going to go golfing one afternoon - you want to drive then?
RC,<P> So,do they have any nice golf courses on(sniff)Bainbridge Island? Do you have to be a millionaire to play there?
<P> She'll be here on Sun.,Sept 17 for a few days.I thought maybe things wouldn't be so crowded on a weekday(Mon?).You could catch the ferry over to downtown,and we could meet you that way.Just a thought.You two will have to fiqure out the golf thing.No,I don't caddy for those B.I.people!<BR> <BR> Bring your BMW,we need a nice car!<P> ~~Murph<P>
Hey Jodie,<P> Where'd ya go??<P> Oh,No,I got her mad at me.......again!
<P> <BR> ~~Murph<BR>
Hey all,<P>Seems like people are up late tonight. Hey are u guys talking about the Flying Fish restuarant? I went there last week for dinner. The Salmon was wonderful. The Maine lobster looked really good too. Nothing like living in Seattle and eating Maine lobster. We took my friend for dessert there on Monday also. We all shared a hot brownie treat that definetely ruined my diet for good. It probably turns out your talking about some real flying fish or something ha ha. That area where the flying fish is is called Belletown and it has become a real hopping fun area with lots of bars and fun places to eat and hang. U get the see the baseball players after the game some nights too in that area. Frankly I have eaten at the Space Needle a few times and the view is better than the food. But it is fun to go up and see the city. <P>I am heading up to Vancouver tommorow for a night away, but let me know where you decided to stay. cya later.<P>Gerri
Murph ~<P>BMW? - No, I grew up here, remember?......it's mostly the newbies that drive the Suburbans, etc........although, I wouldn't mind owning a Roadster (bright red of course) but I'd only be able to drive it once or twice a year when the sun comes out.<BR>Of course I'll have to get marital support then from stbx so I'd be able to afford the gas.<P>Gerri ~<P>I think they're talking about the fish market at Pike Place - you know, where they really do throw the fish? A trip to Belltown sounds fun though. I haven't been out on the town for ages, everything has changed and I wouldn't know where to go!
Gee whiz!!! I haven't been able to get online for 2 days!!!! Talk about withdrawal!!!
<P>Murph,<P>No, I'm not mad at you!!! And I wasn't on the phone with another guy, unless you count the tech-support crew at my ISP. They inactivated my account for no reason 2x in the past year. Needless to say, I cancelled my account and got another provider!! <P>Butterfly,<P>I am SOOOOO jealous!! I wanna go too!!
(low funds though!) Take lots of pix and pass them on!<P>Claire,<P>I'm glad you're still hanging around! I don't know a thing about golf but I would have a ball on the trip!
<P>Mitz
<BR>
Gotta go - be back Monday. Busy day at work today!!
Jodie,<P> You've already used that excuse!<P> So,what ISP did you get? Isn't WebTV the only one like that? I've been having trouble with Freei.net,and they have the nerve to offer it for free!<BR> <BR> How's work going? Keeping the drugs out of the wrong hands?<BR> My dad is back out of the hospital,so I'm going to go see him,and help pack some more.<BR> I'm a gettin'tired!<P> <BR>You sure you don't want to come?I'll even pay your way up,uP,UP!<BR> You'll be fine as long as you look out,and not down........<P> "NO,I SAID DON'T LOOK DOWN!!!"
<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph - are you sure you don't want to come and play caddy for me and Butterfly next month? You might even become enamored of the game......you never know. Then, in January instead of you and I being the two pasty whites by the pool you could come with me and Butterfly and watch the golf matches being played in Australia --- or wherever they are playing in January. Well, the invitation is open........<P>Mitzi - I'm going to go post about upcoming divorce now, - not for the faint of heart.......
What should I entitled it.........? Oh, my Gosh - I'm going to be single by Thursday......<B>WOW</B>
OK, I posted at 3am and it's not here!!
<P>And it was a good one too!!!!<P>Mitzi
Now it's here! Hmmmmmm...spooky!<BR>
Jodie,<P> Ahem........<P> Uh,are you sure you're not dipping into those drugs???
<P><BR> ~~Murph
We're sooo close to 2000 and it's getting harder and harder to post!
Hope we can make it!<P>
Murph,<P>Hell, I'm beginning to think somethings wrong with me!!!! I have to post in order to see the posts before mine! Make sense??
<P>How's your dad today?<P>Jodie
<BR>
Jodie,<P> You're right.<BR> My last reply only took about an hour to show up.Someone asleep at the wheel?<P> It's raining here.Just been doing house cleaning(HouseGod),paying bills,etc.You know,"fun stuff".Maybe I'll go to a movie.<BR>My dad's still sore.They went back and opened up another artery.Guess he needs to cut out the ice cream.<P> It's getting harder to post?<BR> Uh,oh,...Jodie's getting bored with me.The infatuation,and passion is wearing off!<BR> Happens everytime.Guess you better give that cable guy a call.
<P> <BR> ~~Murph/HG<P>
Murph,<P>I didn't mean that I didn't want to post! I meant that the posts weren't showing up. I thought maybe they were shutting us down! LOL LOL LOL<P>At least your dad has good doctors to take care of him. Hope he's feeling better soon!<P>Don't even mention paying bills!!! I'm doing the housework thing but I hate writing the checks for the bills. Hate to see how much money I WON'T have! LOL<P>It's really nice here. Not a rain cloud in sight!!!!
<P>Jodie
Oh Murph,<P>Come now, it was not raining! "misting" maybe. Well, at least at my house. It may be pouring buckets farther south - Hope you don't have any leaks in your roof.<P>Household chores seem to be the order of the day. I'm trying to get mine done now so that I can actually enjoy my vacation.....
<BR>Except that I have to go to court on Thurs to have the divorce finalized
It still makes me very, very sad. To <B>know</B> that it's going to be over so soon. I mean, soon since this last time I booted him out of the house....it's over
Thursday is going to be tough, I'm not kidding myself, I've loved stbx since I was 15 years old, and old habits are hard to break.<BR>
Jodie,<BR> <BR> Yeah,the board seems to be slowing down.Must be all this nice weather?I know,I hate writing bills,too.Like for car insurance,probably never use it.Kinda makes you think you should be getting in a wreck, just so you're getting your money's worth!<P> RC,<P> Really sorry about your divorce.Been there,doing that,too.....I knew my stbx since she was 18(now 44).Sucks,huh?
<P> Yeah,it did actually rain this morning.I know,cause I was out in it for a while(watering my garden).Sun came out off and on this afternoon.Maybe it'll be nice tomorrow.<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Car insurance talk is taboo!!! My car insurance went up a lot when I got my new car. YUK! I've only been in one wreck and that was 8 years ago. No speeding tickets or anything! (Lucky I haven't been caught! LOL)<P>Claire,<P>Things will get easier. I promise that! It took me a while but I've gotten so much happier in the past 5 months. The first 3 were hell though!<BR>Hang in there!<P>Mitz/Jodie
Rcoaster,<P>I know how it feels when it all is really over. It is kinda depressing. Try to plan something w/a friend after. I arranged to meet two of my good friends after my court time and that helped alot. If you can't do that then plan something just for you that you enjoy. Like Mitzi says, it does get easier. I got married to my h when I was 18. I have been married most of my life too. Belltown is fun, it is pretty young too. <P>Vancouver was nice. I am going to get my vision fixed there and went up to check it out. I have to now where glasses for an entire month before I can do it to get my eyes back to original state. I wear hard gas perm lenses. It sounds like a dream come true to wake up and see without glasses. I also went to a "Cheap Trick" concert while I was there, had a blast. I guess im not as old as I think. Life is about doing new things and having fun. I am definitely doing that. So this post is getting a little biiiggggg huh?
Hi guys & gals,<P>I kinda planned on crying the rest of the day on Thursday and then having people over to my house on Friday when they get finished with work (since I'm on vacation - what a way to spend it, huh - getting divorced
).<P>Crying jags have been hitting me at the oddest moments, but then I have to pull myself together so the kids won't see - it won't do them any good to see me soooo upset. They have enough to deal with on their own and they need my help, not the other way around. (see, there go the tears again)<P>Yes, I know it will get easier. I only wish it had been easier <B>earlier</B> to harden myself against what I knew, even then, was going to be the outcome of this mess. If only.........<P>Well, off to buy a new washing machine since stbx took it with him - at least he had to take the majority of the community debt.
<BR>Then again, he took the majority of the assets too....but that's okay because I manage finances <B>much</B> better than he does - talk about a spender and saver!<P>I'll be checking in later!
<B>Hello!!!!!</B><P>Am I the only one at the party? What? Everybody else has somewhere to go on a Saturday night??????? What's up with that?<P>I'm down here typing away while my boys and their friends are upstairs watching wrestling........not yuck, really, but why? I know, it's entertaining.....sometimes I even laugh with them about it.<P>Okay, anyway, just doing my part to get to 2000.....
Okay, <P>one more time, because my boys want to use the computer.......gotta go.........
Hey RC,<P> I hate to break the bad news to ya,but it's Sunday night.....<P> How are you doing?<BR> Hanging in there?
<P><BR> ~~Murph<BR>P.S.--Oops,looks like I just missed you by 1 minute!<p>[This message has been edited by Murphy (edited August 27, 2000).]
Ok I'm here now! LOL<P>Claire,<P>Hon, check your calendar! LOL LOL
<P>Murph,<P>You crack me up! LOL LOL LOL LOL<P>All the kids are in bed and the older two are ready for the first day of school tomorrow!! And I don't have to work tomorrow!!!!! YIPPEE!!!!<P>Jodie/Mitz
Jodie,<P> You don't have to work tomorrow,and I do?<BR> Of all the #@*&?!*?,rotten luck!<P> Hope you enjoy the day off!

Hey Mitzi,<P>You got the boys ready huh?<P>What time does school start???<P>What ya gonna do w/your day off????<P>Gina

Hey ~ It's (duh-da-duh) <B>MONDAY!!!!</B><BR>at least on this board......
<P>Mitzi & Murph - I'm sure you'll be glad to know that I checked the calendar, and gosh- darn if I didn't forget to tear off that page!! Hee, Hee, Hee
<P>Murph, I'm sorry that you had to work today - while Mitzi & I had the whole day to lollygag around.........yeah, right.<P>Mitzi, I <B>wish</B> my kids were back in school! They don't start until the 6th! That's why I take vacation now - so I can have part of the vacation with them and then part for myself. Although - they're old enough to not really want <B>Mom</B> interfering with their lives anymore......fat chance.<P>I noticed that I can no longer spell, either, along with not knowing what day it is
<p>[This message has been edited by RCoaster (edited August 28, 2000).]
OK guys! I'm going to bed! I gotta get the boys up early for school! I'd hate for them to be late on the first day.
<P>Nite-Nite!!!<P>Jodie/Mitz
Hah! Technically I have stayed up later than Mitzi! <P>Mitzi - I'll be home tomorrow so email me!<BR>I'm not planning on any golfing marathon until Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.......maybe that's why I couldn't remember what day it was - I didn't have a tee time!
Well, it's Sunday... um.... actually it's Monday, and I finally got online for the weekend. What a busy weekend! I haven't been online at home in 5 days. <P>Claire,<BR>I've been where you are right now... it was even harder than moving out.
I wish my vacation was this week... I'd go golfing with you, and get you rip roaring drunk on Thursday.
<BR>The day my D was final, my dad showed up at their house for lunch to find me there balling my eyes out on the couch. Even though I knew it was for the best, and I had accepted it, it was still hard.<P>Mitz,<BR>Enjoy your day off!
<P>Murph.....<BR>Will you come and clean my house and pay my bills... You can even use my checks, I just hate to sit down and do it.
Not that I like sending my money away, but I just hate to sit and write them out... I think it's an occupational hazard, since that seems to be all I do at work lately.<P>Well, I'm off to the airline site to book my trip!!!! YIPEEEE!!!<P>Smooches,<BR>B
I haven't been here to speak of for nearly a week. Busy last week at work and no computer at home. Missed you. Now, I got number 1700. What if I get 1800 too? What's my prize? I want it and it better be good. Cash, checks, gift certificates to stores of my choice are preferred.
It's mine, I think, and I want my gift!!!!
<B>1800!!!!</B> Way to go Cinderella!!!<BR>Only 200 to go!!! <BR>
(no, I'm not going to do 1800
's today
)<P>Have a great Monday everyone!<P>XOXOXOXOXOXOXO<BR>B<p>[This message has been edited by Butterfly (edited August 28, 2000).]
Butterfly - You little stinker, you. You were sitting out there trying to take my 1800th post from me. :P<P>Sorry, but you seem to have posted right after me. I might share if there is enough prize for that to be reasonable.
Man, if I'd only stayed on just a little bit longer last night....
See, I don't even think about what # I'm on. I've got to learn to be more selfish.
Is it almost time for the kids to come home?? YES! Gee...it went by too fast.<P>I noticed that someone posted at 10am central time and it didn't show up. Maybe this will speed things along.<P>Cinderella,<P>YOU GO GIRL!!! We're almost to 2000!!!!!<P>Mitzi
Ok, I admitt it.... I thought I had 1800.
Is my face red! LOL<P>Mitz, I just realized somehthing.... you started this thread the day you went to the end of the school year picnic, and now we've got the 1800th post on the first day of school.... weird, huh.<P>Well, I booked all my flights.... I'm headed west!!! I'm still debating about a rental car while I'm in Seattle. I hate being indecisive.... I think.
<P>Well, I'm off to get my new tires... darn Firestones have to be replaced. Oh well, at least it's free.
<P>XOXOXOXOXO<BR>Busty<P>
GEEEZ!!<BR>I DECIDE TO to sit somewhere else for a while and y'all are STILL at it!!!<P>rrunrr<BR>
Butterfly,<P>Ya know, I never even thought of that!! How cool!!! Maybe since we're so close to 2000, more will drop in to help!!<P>Mitz
Hi Gang!!!<P>I made it through another day. Just thought I'd add to the post - I think 1809 (?)<P>And now, time to go feed my wonderful children - and then make them clean up after themselves.....teenagers, I swear they no longer know the meaning of 'clean it up.' They were better at it when they were five!<BR>At least they take showers now without my telling them to!<P>See ya
Hey - who took my kids when I wasn't looking?<P>They <B>asked</B> to help with dinner.....told me how good it was.......emptied the dishwasher (I only had to ask them once)......then rinsed their dishes and put them <B>in</B> the dishwasher without my asking........they must be pod people replacements!!!!!!! <P>I think I'll keep them....
<P>
Rcoaster,<P>You are one up on me. I still have to tell my teenager to take a shower. It is getting kinda ridiculous. Im excited to get them back in school too!<P>Butterfly,<P>I don't like paying bills either!!! Maybe we can get Murph to start a business. I put it off until I can't any longer. I don't pay late, just right on time. Sounds like you are on your way. When are you going to be here again? Im a flake, cant remember.<P>Talk to ya all later<P>G
I'm back at work. Is anyone out there? <P>No one has told me what my prize is for getting both 1700 and 1800! <BR>
Hey gang!<BR>Not much time today.... what a day from he##! <P>Gerri,<BR>I will be there on the 17th... at about 3pm (I think, it might be earlier). I'm looking forward to this!! I wanna see the flying fish (at the market)
. <P>I'll try to get back this afternoon.... If I can get DOE off my back. (It's a long story).<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty
Cinderella,<P> I thought you won 100 hours of yardwork outta Drew for the 1700th.<BR> What? He never showed up? Why that...???<P> Maybe we should up that to 200 hours of yardwork outta Medic for the 1800th,since he's back to his old self.I'll get Zippy right on it!<P><BR> Gerri,<P> I do have a bill-writing service.I only take 10% off the top.Call for an appointment.<P><BR> Busty,<P> Go ahead,and rent a limo,and I'll break out my chauffeur cap.The flying fishes await.<BR> Hey,maybe we could drop one off the Needle,and really watch it fly!<P><BR> Jodie,<P> Have any of those good drugs left? Maybe when I submit this,it'll show up in a couple of days.
<P><BR> RC,<P> How are you doing?<BR> Hanging in there?<P><BR> ~~Murph
Hey, Where is everyone????? I finally get online at home again, and noone is here.
<P>Well, I'll hang for a while and see what happens... I'm in the process of refilling my hot tub. When I filled it this weekend, there was something wrong with the well water... it looked like I had filled it with coffee.... eeeeeewwwwwwwww
.<P>Is anybody home???<P>XOXOXOXOXOX<BR>B
Hey,let's try a reply to the gigathread,and see how long it takes to post!On your mark...<P> Hey Butterfly,<P> So,what's wrong with coffee in your hot tub?<BR> You can relax,and wake up at the same time.<P> I just got home,but I'll bet you're sound asleepZZZZZZZZZ<P><BR> ~~Murph/Tourguide <P>
Hey Murph
Yeah, hangin' in there (by my fingernails and that Scandanavian stubornness) Tomorrow is D day....trying to keep my spirits up, but it's hard.<P>I know it will get easier. Like Butterlfly told me - It's just a bend in the road...
Claire,<P>Keep hanging in there, hon! We are all here for you!!!!! Take lots of deep breaths!!<P>((((((((((HUGS))))))))))<BR>Mitzi
TourGuide...<BR>Yup, by the time you posted that I was sound asleep...ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzzzzZZZZZZ<BR>Only 15 days to go!!!! Wooo Hoooo!!!

I knew mine was close (w/in 2 weeks) but not the exact day until it was a done deal. I'm here for you, we all are.<BR>So, speaking of fingernails.... how'd yours come out?<P>Mitz,<BR>How do the boys like school? Gosh, I can't believe it's already Labor Day Weekend... this summer has flown by so fast.<P>Well, it's back to work.... <BR>Smooches,<BR>Busty the Tourist
Murphy - No the royal jester never showed up to take care of the royal grounds at my castle. I spent four hours in the yard Sunday, pulling junk, trimming, all that stuff that goes into keeping your landscaping looking decent. Gave myself a respiratory infection. Got big time antibiotics yesterday. May feel human by tomorrow or Friday. The cruds make me feel bad, the antibiotics don't help, and I can't talk to my children in a loud enough voice or for long enough. No bed time stories or lullabies since my lungs don't like the breathing task normally assigned to them. No other organs volunteer to take over. <P>Why don't you come over and just cut my grass. At this point that's the next big outside job and I really don't think I can do it.<P>When I have my dreamhouse, I will have a yard covered in groundcover that only gets a few inches tall and doesn't have to be mowed.
Cinderella,<P> Ok,you pay my way to Nashville,and put me up in that fancy hotel,and I'll cut your big lawn.<P> Do we have a deal?
<BR> <BR>None of those cheap $150/night rooms,either.<BR> I want the penthouse suite with the hot tub!<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murphy - I hate to disappoint you. I plan on seeing you in Nashville in January. You better be here. But I'll be doing well to put myself up in a big fancy room.<P>It would be cheaper to hire out the yard.
Mitzi<P>So nice of you to drop in on my thread ("Earn the Right to leave.....)just to say hi!<P>Well, I felt one good turn deserves another, so I thought I'd drop in on you.<P>I still lurk and keep up with this thread, just been awhile since I posted. Are you doing ok? Any new developments in your situation?<P>I see Murph is still alive and kicking! Hey Murph....this one is just for you!<P>2 blondes walking down the street, one looks down and sees a compact lying on the sidewalk. <P>She bends down to pick it up, opens it and sees a mirror. "Oh gosh", she exclaims as she looks in the mirror, "she sure looks familiar".<P>The other blonde grabbed the compact away from her, looks in it and says "You stupid blonde, that's me!"<P>I see that 2000 might become a reality..to be honest after the 1,000th post (Yea! I claimed the 1,000th post); I never thought we'd reach 2k.<P>Just wanted to say hi to all my friends here besides Mitzi and Murph...hi Butterfly and all the rest!<P>By the way, we have had 62 straight days without rain here in Texas and almost as many straight days of 100 degrees+ // I do like hot weather...but I am ready for fall.<P>[censored] from Texas (Fort Worth)
Hi everyone......I'm still alive and kickin'. Just gotta do it anyway, even if I don't feel like it right now.<P>Hey, after I submit this reply I should be able to go mix myself a drink while I'm waiting for it to post.....I think I will, gosh darn it!!! Why not? I'm on vacation and I'm now single. (UGH)
Mitzi - I know you're going to ask - whatcha drinkin'? I bought some Stoli Vanilla Vodka to mix with OJ - tastes like a creamsicle.....a little too sweet for me, but it was worth a try.....what did I do with that bottle of Chivas??? Can anyone say puke your guts out by tomorrow morning?<BR>(I'm only kidding......sort of.....maybe...)
Yes.....I did get an email.......he is there in Arizona....for the weekend......looking at places to live!<P>He will be back and then packing and moving.<P>Looking down there for jobs as well.<P>I miss him as well!<P>Cinderella,I will call you in the morning?<P>Gina

Butterfly,<P>School went good this week. It was tirng for the boys though. They just have a rough time getting up at 6:30am! LOL Definately not morning people! LOL<P>[censored],<P>I posted about an appointment with my lawyer. I'm really doing good. And so are my boys. The only problem they have is that their father only seems to remember that they exist about once a month. But if things go as scheduled, I'll be divorced on the 21st of this month. <BR>Thanks for asking! <BR>BTW...loved the joke! LOL LOL LOL<P>Mitzi

OK Murph,<P>I'm just posting this to see if your post shows up!<P>Jodie

Mitzi (Jodie) ~<P>Clean livin', I guess. I just had enough time to clean the litter box, sweep & mop the kitchen floor and grab a cub of cofee!!<P>Maybe I should start posting as Bridget - people have told me I look like Bridget(is it Bridget?) Fonda - compliment (?). We could be the movie stars of the board.....
Bridget,<P>There's a whole section in this thread where we all discussed what we look like and who we've been told we look like. I've been told that I look like Jodie Foster, Gina (w.g.up.h) looks like Marilyn Monroe, Jo (Resilient) looks like Daisy Fuentes and Murph looks like Mel Gibson! (Now you know why all the ladies keep talking to him!! LOL LOL)<P>I'm not getting anything done! Think I should get started?? LOL<P>Mitz/Jodie
Hey Claire/Bridget,<P> You must have the magic touch on this thread.<P> You coming over to clean my kitchen floor?<BR> A tuna salad sounds good,too.<P> Looks like it's a gonna rain....

Bridget,<P>See how he is?? Always trying to get someone to do the work for him. Poor Lora! He's been trying all summer to get her to do his yardwork! <P>Maybe this thing is finally gonna work right!<P>Jodie
Mel ~<P>It must be something about Kent - the sun is shining at my house!!! Maybe it's just because BI is better than Kent
<P>I told you guys - clean livin'. And, no, I won't be over to mop your floor, I hate cleaning the house - just something I <B>have to do - UGH!</B> Maybe Bridget would come over to do it for you though...
<P>Where are those delivery guys with my washing machine? Time's a-wasting. I guess I'll just have to stay on-line until then.
Bridget,<P>Delivery guys are never on time! HEY!! They just might be gorgeous looking delivery GODS!!!!! <P>I hate to clean too! Notice I'm not doing it! LOL<P>Jodie
Geez,I try to find something that you ladies are interested in(cooking,cleaning,etc.),and I just get shot down! Women.....!!!
<P> Yeah,I've heard all about you(sniff)Bainbridge Island people.Probably got your butler out washing your Caddy.The sun is poking out a little for us poor,trailer-trash in Kent! New washing machine,huh? We just wash our clothes down at th'creek!Hang'em up on our TV attennas.....<P> I bet Jodie would mop my floor if she was close by.Right,Jodie?<P> Jodie?.......<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Women are interested in cleaning?? That's one I've never heard! LOL LOL LOL<P>Well, in order for me to mop your floor, you'd have to do my yardwork! Nothing fancy, just mow and use the weed eater. And it's not too big, only an acre. Deal??<P>Jodie
Murph ~<P>Caddy - <sniff> HA!!! They're out vacuuming the Rolls!
Okay, maybe just the bread crumbs......<P>I tried hanging the clothes out to dry on the satellite dish, but the neighbors started complaining.....
<P>
You mean you guys wash your cars?! We just run ours thru the river to get the mud off of them! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL<P>Murph,<P>You guys wash your clothes in the creek too??!! Wow, small world!!! <P>Bridget,<P>Satellite dish? Well, LA DI DA!!!
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Well,I guess when you don't having running water,you have to wash your cars that way!<BR>It'd be pretty hard to haul up enough water outta the well for that,huh?<BR>Just how far out is it to your outhouse,anyway?
<P> <BR> Bridget,<P> So,are you having your chauffeur picking Busty,and I up to go to the Needle? Don't forget the champagne...<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>We don't have a well, just a spring and a creek. Actually the water that you guys buy in bottles? I get it right out of the faucet!!! <P>And the outhouse is just down the path. Gotta keep it a little ways away from the house!!! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
<BR>
Jodie,<P> Your probably right about the bottled water.Only we give it fancy names,and call it"designer water".
<P> Don't think I'd want to make that trip to do a #2 in the middle of winter.That seat would be cold.
<P> Well,I'm off.<BR> Gotta go see the folks down at th'trailer park,and then stop by the creek to wash my only pair of underwear(hope nobody's lookin').<P> Catch ya'll later.....<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>There's actually a man that lives close to me that sells his water. He's building his own water bottling plant.<P>I hope you don't think that I really have an outhouse! LOL LOL LOL<P>Have fun today!<P>Jodie
Murph/Mel ~<P>I think my driver has his days off right then. I guess I could ask my DAD, the engineer, to drive for us though....you guys would have a great time discussing Boeing - as long as he has his hearing-aid turned up, then again he might have to turn it off so he didn't have to listen to us discuss MB and our divorce forum......and our X's or stbx's - might be just a little bit of profanity (?) - I don't think I'll be past the point of profanity yet. So I'll apologize in advance....might be a few shoots and goll-darns mixed in.<P>Hey, where is Butterfly anyway? Maybe she'll show up later...Gotta go, I've put off doing the laundry long enough - and I don't have an excuse anymore.
Hi guys,<P>Just wanted to post to the megathread. It doesn't take long to post, but I am on an ISDN line, maybe that helps.<P>RCoaster,<P>Sounds like you are doing well this weekend. That is good. Keep yourself busy. It helps take your mind off stuff. You should be thankful you have relatives near by. I never have and it is really hard being a single parent and no family around. But you adjust. Good luck w/the laundry not my favorite either.<P>G
Hey Murph ~<P>How were your parents today? Did you mop the floors? Hope that everything is going okay for them.<P>Claire<P>
Claire/Bridget,<P> My folks are doing good.They're going to blow town on Wed.,and head south.<BR>No,no floors to mop!<P> When you coming over to do mine?
<P> No,don't care to discuss Boeing!<P><BR> <BR> Hi Gerri,<P> How are you?<BR> Doing any work on your house?<P><BR> ~~Murph
Hey Murph,<P>Glad to here that your parents are doing good. Is your dad recovering well from his surgery? <P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Well,he's still sore(walkin'a little slow).<BR> They brought dinner over last night.BBQ chicken dinner!Stayed up late BS'ing.<P> How'd your chatroom go last night?<BR> I'm afraid I can't type THAT fast!<BR> How about you? 200-300 words per minute?<P> What's for breakfast?
<P><BR> ~~Murph<BR>
Murph,<P>The chatroom thing consisted of me and Bridget. No one else could get in!
Oh well, there's always next time. But we talked a lot about Nashville and bashed our former/almost former spouses. <BR>I'm not even thinking about breakfast! LOL My two older boys went with my Aunt to a picnic and me and my 3 year old are going to a birthday party for my nephew. I'm afraid all my youngest got for breakfast was cereal!<P>Why? Are you offering to cook?
<P>BTW, when I was in high school (almost 15 years ago!
) I could only type 42 words a minute. I think I'm doing better than that now! <P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Highschool?<BR> What was that?<BR> Afraid I don't recollect.....
<P> I think I tried that TalkCity some time ago.<BR> Seems I had some trouble with it.I might have to try it again.<P> Yeah,I guess it's about lunchtime for you.<P> That's too bad.....<BR> I was going to make blueberry pancakes.<BR> You like those?<P> ~~Murph
GoodMorning!!!<P>Hey Murphy,<P>I do,I do,I do............YUM!!!<P>Do you make bacon too?????<P>Gina
<P><P>------------------<BR>"If we deny love that is given to us,if we refuse to give love because we fear pain or loss,then our lives will be empty,our loss greater!"-----Anonymous----
Murph,<P>Sometimes talkcity is hard to get into. I guess it's because it's so busy. <P>High school is something that most people like to forget. I have some really embarassing pictures! YUCK!!!<P>Thank God for the birthday party and the picnic! Now, I won't have to fix lunch!!
<P>We'll be over for blueberry pancakes tomorrow morning!
<P>Jodie
Mitz<P>Is there something special that you have to do to get in?????<P>I was there and signed my name in but and then typed in Infidelity but than nothing happen.<P>Gina<P>
Gina,<P>Did you type it in with all lower case letters? That may make a difference. <P>I think there's also a download. Did you do that? <P>I'm not too computer literate. It's compatible with Web TV. And I don't have to sign in everytime. Hmmmmmmmm...I'll check it out and let you know!<P>Mitzi
Hey Murphy,<P>How are you doing? Are things going well with your folks? I am working on the house. Isn't it a never ending project? My sound went out on my sound system and my ex was the one who wired the whole thing. It took me weeks but I found a guy who is going to help me fix it today. It is a real ratsnest of wires. I haven't watched TV in ages and funny I really haven't missed it. I do miss the music though. Now don't look down on me cause I need a man for help. I tried to fix this one myself and got it messed up even worse. <P>Well thanks for responding, I don't think anyone knows me. <P>Gerri
Hey everyone,<P>Just trying to see if I can get to page 125.<P>B
Mitz,<P>Yep,I did do the down load thing.<P>I did typ in all lower case letters!<P>I don't know......maybe when I typed it in I miss spelled it.<P>I am blonde!!...
<P>We can try it again!<P>Murphy,<P>Glad to hear that dad is on the mend!<BR>Sounds as tho you had a nice time last night!<P>Geri,<P>I know ya..........or maybe just a little.<P>Dont worry about having to ask for a man to help!..........it is ok.
<P>You doing ok/?????<P>Gina
<BR>
Jodie,<P> Tell ya what.<BR> Send me those great HS pix,and I'll make you breakfast! <BR> Deal?<P> <BR> Hi Gina,<P> Not too much bacon.<BR>Gotta watch my waistline,ya know!<BR> Working on them abs......<P> <P> Gerri,<P> Folks are good.How's that car running?<BR> This house IS a never-ending project.<P> I don't look down on you because you NEED a man's help.It's perfectly natural.......
<P><BR> ~~Murph<BR>
Okay, I'm a little bit late today....showed up here at about 6 am - gosh, nobody around at that time of the morning so I went out on my deck with the <B>Sunday</B> paper (got that Mitz & Murph? - I know it's Sunday today - LOL) and my large mug of coffee. The sunrise was truly beautiful - makes me feel better every time.<P>Made <B>blueberry</B> pancakes for the boys along with sausage, fried potatoes (no eggs though) and lots of attention to conversation. It was pretty good
<P>Going to splurge on going to a movie this afternoon with the kidos...no golfing today, but I should have - it's a pretty nice morning - and I would have been home in time for the movie...Oh, well, there's always tomorrow.<P>Murph ~ glad Mom & Dad are doing well. A couple of snowbirds, huh? Mine too. They won't be heading south tho until the end of the month. Actually they won't be heading south, they're going east first to visit my Dad's sis (she's about 85 and I think Dad wants to get in all the family time possible).<P>Mitz ~<P>Did I really do a lot of trashing X? I guess it just comes naturally at this time of my life.....
<P>My weekend after D is going along - okay. Keeping a stiff upper lip and all that. <P>Have a good day everyone!
RC/Claire/Bridget,<P> Do you have a view of the water?<BR> It's nice out now,just working around the house.<P> Folks been SB'ing for several years.Now they'll live down in Palm Springs most of the year,and travel around.<P> Hey,how about if I come over to your house for Blueberry pancakes?To heck with making my own.Those are with freshly-picked berries off your bushes,right?<P><BR> ~~Murph
<P>
Murph,<P>There is NO WAY I'm handing out any of my old HS pix!!!! WAY too embarassing!!!<P>If you'd rather have Claire cook for you than cook for me...go right ahead!<P>Gina,<P>I should be blonde! I don't know much about computers. The only reason I know how to use webtv is because they made it so easy. LOL LOL<P>Gerri,<P>I know who you are!!! <P><BR>Hey People!! We are almost at 2000!!!! <P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> No,no,you are misconfused!<P> I just said I'd rather have her make breakfast than eat by myself.I still want to make you breakfast.....<P> Right after you send me those HS pix!<P> What have you got to lose besides your dignity?
<P><BR> ~~Murph
Jodie,<P> Is there really such a word as"misconfused"?<P> Why,......Soitenly!
<P><BR> ~~Murph/Nyuk,Nyuk!
Murph,<P>Is it only found in one of your dictionaries?!
<P>Jodie
Murph/Mel ~<P>No, no freshly picked blueberries
But, I do have some blue huckleberry bushes! Those are almost as good as blueberries - especially if you've been backpacking through the mountains! Of course I haven't done any backpacking since I was 14! (a couple of years ago)<P>The only reason I made breakfast was because I haven't yet learned to trust the kidos too much around the stove......It's time though! Got to teach those boys correctly now so some lucky girls can benefit later! I think I'll have to teach them to pick up their rooms first....
<p>[This message has been edited by RCoaster (edited September 04, 2000).]
Okay, so far so good. Boys have picked up their rooms.....next up, Apple Cobler
<BR>Then, (shhhhhh, don't anybody tell) I'm going to show them how to iron....
Rcoaster,<P>Go girl, teach them how to iron. Good life skill.<P>School starts tomorrow. Im excited, but not. My daughter is going to a private school in Bellevue, so I am now a driving mom.<P>Murph,<P>Love the car. It has been a great summer here, as you know and it is perfect weather for the top down. I am going to be hating the color, black when it starts raining, but oh well it is a sweet vehicle.<P>Hope you all had a nice day off. <P>Gerri
Claire,<P>My kids think any kind of housework is "woman's work" (Thanks to their dad!) Little do they know....<P>I want mine to be independent too. I'm trying to teach them a little at a time. So far, so good! LOL<P><BR>Gerri,<P>A convertible?? When do we all get a ride?? LOL LOL<P>Mitzi
Geri ~<P>Are you gonna take us to the needle in your car? A night on the town! WooHoo!<P>They didn't really get the ironing bit, yet. I shall persevere.
Gee.......<P> And here I always thought any kind of housework WAS woman's work!<P> Thanks for straightening me out on that,Jodie!<P><BR> ~~Murph
Hey Murph!!<P>Woman's work??? NOT!! A man needs to learn how to do laundry so that if he lives alone, his whites aren't pink!! LOL LOL LOL<P>Jodie
<P>
Jodie,<P> For your information,<P> I washed my own clothes most of the time,even when"the little woman"lived with me! <BR> <BR> So there!!!<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>You mean some men actually know how to use a washing machine???? Unbelievable!!!!! <P>Jodie
Uh-oh Murph......you're in trouble!!!<P>Since you're so good at doing laundry I propose that <B>you</B> should have to teach my kidos about sorting - and not putting towels in with the delicates - and that it's always better to take things out of the dryer while they're still warm, so that they don't wrinkle as much......etc., etc. and how to iron, and <B>mopping the floors</B> - the lists are endless.
<P>
My ex was always amazed at how I could do all the chores better than her.....and I am also a gourmet chef....when I want to be....<P>Bill
Hey!! Bill!<P>Do you do windows? I've got these great, big picture windows in my living room......
Mitzi,Claire,<P>Yep......there are men out there that know how to do all that........they just choose not to!!!
<P>Sometimes us women make it way to easy on the men!<P>Sorry Murph,it has to be said!<BR>I would bet that your an exception to the rule!
<P>Hey,I even have my 5 year old boy doing the dishes!!! LOL (gotta get them taught early!)<P>Gina
<P>------------------<BR>"If we deny love that is given to us,if we refuse to give love because we fear pain or loss,then our lives will be empty,our loss greater!"-----Anonymous----
Jodie,<P> Who said anything about a washing machine?<P> I just wash'em down at th'creek,on the way home from work! Hope nobody's lookin'.<P> ~~Murph
Don't get me started about windows.......<P>I have 30 plus in my house...I'm thinking about hireing someone to do them......<P>I hate cleaning windows....<P>B
Murph,<P>Do I detect a few of them there hillbilly jokes a-comin'?? LOL LOL LOL<P>Why dontcha just wash 'em in the cement pond?
<P>Jodie
Gina ~<P>My X was an <B>excellent</B> cleaner....a real neatnik - but it was either his way or it wasn't correct...know what I mean? <P>Murph ~<P>So, how about it? When are the cleaning lessons for my kidos gonna start? Of course, I already told you that the crick next door got diverted. But there is that gulley down the road.....
Bill,<P> Talk to Lora.<P> She'll do your windows.....for free.<P><BR> ~~Murph
Bill ~<P>What? No windows?
And here I was thinking of how beautiful the view would be if they were actually cleaned by someone other than myself. How about mopping floors?<BR>Oh, that's right - that's Murph's job.
Bridget,<P> You know how I mop the floor?<P> I pour milk on it,and let the dog lick it clean!<P>~~Murph<P>
Murph,<P>No wonder us women just do the housework ourselves! LOL<P>Jodie
Murph ~<P>At least it gets done
<P>Mitz~<P>Oh <<<<YAWN>>>> kidos are in bed, and since I'll be up at the crack of dawn I better get there too. First day of school tomorrow. I guess that's why they went to bed on their own
Jodie,<P> But the men find the easy way!<P> You want to know how I clean the toilets?..............never mind!<P><BR> ~~Murph
Ok Guys!<P>I'm on my way to work to suspend the "Ritalin Thief!!" It's about time!!!!!<P>They can't fire her until Human Resources does their investigation but at least this will keep her out of the house. I think she'll just get mad and quit. <P>Wish me luck!!!<P>Mitzi
Go get her,Jodie!<P> Um,is that the poor woman with four starving children.........<P> Have a,um,good day......<P><BR> ~~Murph
Gonna make it to 1900 today.....it will probably be the same person, again...
<P>Well, here's one more on the way to the next 100 mark
Murph,<P>Not 4 starving children...just 2! LOL LOL<P>I felt bad for her but...it's my job. You can't steal controlled substances and get away with it. <P>Now I have to be careful...she's got a lunatic for a husband!
<P>I'm gonna get 1900!! I want a prize!! I didn't get my prize for the last time I won. (HINT, HINT! A picture of Murph doing yardwork! LOL)<P>Jodie
If anyone can tell me how you get to the end of this thread, please e-mail me at jane_elisem@altavista.com. I'm unhappy about this.
Mitz ~<P>Oh, <B>sure</B>, I post to 1897 and then you post three in a row? Cheater, cheater, cheater
<P>Actually I though about posting four times in a row....but had to get the kidos off for their first day of school today. <P>Hey, I'm on vacation - if you give me Murph's address I can play "secret agent" and go take pictures for you
I bet I don't find him doing any yard work tho...or mopping the floors...or laundry...or cooking...<P>RC/Claire/Bridget
OK......<P> So just when do we get a pix of Jodie in her tanktop,and shorts?<P> I'm waiting.........<P><BR> ~~Murph
I'll swap a pic of me prepairing a gormet feast in a tank top and shorts for that pic of Mitzi in a tank and shorts.....LOL
Bill,<P> OK,you got a deal.....<P> You know,I sent Mitz a whole bunch of pix of my house,and a couple of weird bugs.<BR> <BR>You'd think the LEAST she could do,is send me that pix of her!<P> Jodie?.........<P><BR> ~~Murph
LOL....here I am bragging about being the consumate gourmon' and what do I fix myself for dinner????<P>EGGOS......LOL<P>I did put real maple syrup on them.....LOLOL<P>B
Ok guys here's the deal...<P>Murph,<P>I'll send you a pix of me if you send me the pix of Bill.<P>Bill,<P>I'll send you the pix of me if you send me the pix of Murph.<P><BR>I told ya...I can't send pix thru web tv Gotta have snail mail addresses!
<P>Jodie/Mitz
Hi guys & gals ~<P>Kidos have finally finished their homework so I can use the computer
but now I'm already startin' to fade.<P>Bill ~<P>Eggos, huh? That's okay, the kidos and I like breakfast for dinner sometimes too. <P>Mitz ~<P>So, if you've got Murph's address.....
remember that I'll play spy for you! Just hope I don't catch him washing his laundry!!!
Jodie,<P> Nice try....<P> But I could send you a pix of anybody.How would you know if it was Bill?(but I'm honest)<BR> But you could send your pix to Bridget's house.<P> <BR> Bridget,<P> Could you give Jodie your home address,so she can send you her pix?Then I'll give you my address,and you can come over and help with yardwork.Then we can have a couple of beers,while you show me Jodie's pix!<P><BR> See,Jodie....nothing to it!<BR> Simple,huh?<P><BR> ~~Murph
Oh, no, dear Murph! That's not the way it works!! <P>See, the problem with that is...Claire could be a stalker. Who would it be safer to give your address to? A stalker who lives relatively close to you? Or an innocent little farm girl that lives, what? 3000 miles away? Hmmmmm....<P>Bill doesn't mind giving me his address, right Bill?? (Just say you don't mind! LOL LOL)<P>Jodie
My dear Jodie,<P> An"innocent,little farm girl"???<P> Who on earth are you talking about?
<P><BR> ~~Murph<P><BR>
Why, Murph!<P>That would be me!
You don't think that's a perfect description of me??
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Well,I don't know.....<P> Better go ahead and send me a pix,so I can get the complete picture.That would really help!<P> Thanks,you're a sweetheart.....<P><BR> ~~Murph
Nice try, Murph!!
<P>Who am I supposed to send them to?<P>Jodie
<P>
Jodie,<P> Send'em to Dana.<BR> Then she can e-mail them to me!(as long as they don't get lost?)<P> You don't have a scanner on that new PC of yours?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Shoot! I don't even have a monitor for that PC of mine! LOL LOL Haven't had a chance to go get one yet! LOL LOL<P>Dana's supposed to be in WV on September 30th and we're gonna try to get together. This time, I'll take the pix! LOL Then I'll send them to Dana and she can send them to anyone that wants them! <BR>Deal?
<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Hey,now we're talking!<P> I even have some frames that don't have pix in them anymore(I wonder why?).<P> I could really use some pix of a cute,innocent little farm girl from WV.....<P> You just made my day!
<P> 'Night,Jodie<P> ~~Murph/ZZZZZZ
Murph,<P>Ok, it's settled then! Finally!!!
<P>Gonna head to bed myself!<P>Nite-Nite,<BR>Jodie
Ok Mitzi, here's the deal...<P>If I send you my Addy will promise that you will come stalk me?<P>I mean after all I could use a little excitement... Just to keep it interesting I'll tell you how to break in my house...I don't have a rabbit for you to boil...but I...oops sorry that's Glen Close not Jodie Foster...<P>B
Bill,<P>Hmmmmmmmmmmm....that means I would get to use all of my secret spy tactics...ok deal!
<P>Claire,<P>Get your cameras out and make sure you have a good telephoto lens!! I have a job for you!!!!
<P>You get the pix of Murph and share copies and I'll get pix of Bill and share copies! How's that sound to ya?
<P>Mitz
<BR>
Murph,<P>BTW...I already have a picture of Bill! And Zippy, too! You're the only one who hasn't sent one yet!!
<P>Jodie
Mitz,<P>Okay, but I'll have to borrow big bro's digital camera - I don't think they make telephoto lenses for those yet! I may even send you a picture of myself (I hate having my picture taken tho). Can you receive pix attachments?
Claire,<P>Usually I can open attachments!! <P>See Murph! I told ya I'd get a picture somehow!
<P>Mitz
Mitz,<P>Okay, this is my new look...
<BR>(of course people would wonder why I'm in sunglasses when it's raining....) The newest MB spy!
Claire,<P>LOL LOL LOL When Butterfly gets there, she'll give you some training! LOL LOL She'll also help ya out with the pix. (she promised!)<P>Mitz
I'm back. Been crazy week. Today is one of my busiest days and the person who e-mails me list of songs for Sunday's service hasn't done it yet. I have to leave for a couple of hours, Ah, they just arrived. How is everyone. Seems like forever since I posted here. I still haven't gotten my prizes for 1700 and 1800. What have I won? I'm beginning to think you have forgotten about me.
<P>RCoaster - sorry if I hurt your feelings by taking 1700 and 1800. It was simply that I checked it in the middle of the day and it was so close to the big numbers that double or triple posting was all it took.
Cinderella,<P>Hey! It's ok about not posting too much. You are helping plan the NVille trip and that takes a lot of time!
(And we are all grateful!!!)<P>Don't worry about feeling left out. I've won several prizes and to this day, I haven't gotten one!!
Murph is shirking his prize patrol duties!!<P>Mitzi
Cindyrelly,<P>That's okay! I'm just going to lurk around and then post, post, post when it even gets close!
<P>Claire
I won't try to hog the 2,000th post since I had the 1,000th. Just wanted to add to the mix today.<P>Only 68 more to go. <P>[censored] from Texas
If you all think you're gonna hang around waiting for me to get to post 1999 by myself and then jump in and steal the prize...think again!!
<P>Mitz
HEHEHEHE....that's it Mitzi keep posting...<P>B
Bill, <P>Oh no ya don't!!!! I'm gonna win the MEGA-PRIZE!!!!! <P>It's gonna be a huge life-size poster of ALL the guys. And remember...me, Claire and Butterfly are spies!!
<P>Mitz
So that,s how it's gonna be...you lovely laday spies will mount a clandestine operation for the photos...I guess I will have to leave the window shades up...er..um...I mean down....
<P>Bill
Well, some of the guys refuse to let us have a picture (ahem...Murph) so we'll stop at nothing to collect a prize!!
<P>Mitz
Mitzi,<P>Gotta love a steadfast detirmined woman...accept when she runs off with a 17 yr old junkie...LOL<P>Bill<P>
Bill,<P>Believe me...I lived with a junkie for 10 1/2 years...not gonna do that again! (He was 33 though)<P>Yeah, you could say we're determined. If you notice, most of the winners have been women! LOL<P>Mitz
Indeed you ladies are tough...Most men suck...they are selfish pigs...SH...Don't tell TheStudent I said that...LOL<P>Bill
I wouldn't say that most men are pigs...but alot of the ones I know are! LOL<P>And you guys are pretty determined too. Just look how hard you all are trying to get pictures of the women! LOL LOL<P>Mitz
<head down, shuffling feet, softly whistling><P>
Oh, don't even try playing innocent! LOL<P>I've been hounded by Murph for a couple of months now. He even gave poor Dana a hard time when the developer lost the ones of when me and her met in June! LOL LOL LOL LOL <P>It's just the Jodie Foster thing! LOL<P>Mitzi
I love it!<P>I get to get up in the morning and read your posts. Laugh until my sides hurt....<P>Bill ~<P>very descriptive! and too funny
<P>Hey, happy Friday!! Darn - it's the end of my vacation though
and the weekend looks like it gonna be soggy. Oh well, it'll just let the rainbarrel fill up a bit more so I can do laundry....right, Murph? How's that for having a positive attitude?
Claire,<P>Rain barrel...creek...either one will work for laundry!
<P>Guess what happened here yesterday?! My 8 year old wrecked his bike and had to get 30 stitches in his head! He cut a big gash in front of his ear. Even cut the cartillage. OMG! It looks nasty!!! Nothing like a little excitement to start the weekend! LOL <P>Mitzi
Mitzi,<P>OMGosh!! How scary is that?
I remember the feeling when my youngest was 2 - he got pushed off a little slide and broke his leg. Nothing much you can do for the pain but to let them know that you will always be there for them when scary things happen.<P><BR>I'm glad my day wasn't as eventful as yours! Just the kidos going to school and coming back home.....making potato salad and some more apple cobler (gotta use up the apples from our tree - and I hate making jellies and sauces) Went shopping with my Mom - ho-hum kind of day. I'll take it tho.<BR>Hope your son is doing okay today!<P>
This is actually the 4th time he's had stitches. He's had a total of 63. 20 between his eyes. 13 on his forehead and now the new 30. He's doing ok today. He's not even complaining about it hurting. <P>How about making applesauce with the apples?? Then you can send me some. OR better yet...apple butter! LOL LOL <P>Mitz
Wow...30 stitches to add to his scar collection...he must look like a prize fighter...<P>Abbey has only had "nurse-maids" elbo twice...and a couple of skinned knees...<P>Almost to post # 2k...lol<P>Bill
Bill,<P>A prize fighter? LOL LOL Actually he's had such a good surgeon to put in the stitches, that you can barely see scars. With 3 boys, I'm always either at the DR or the ER. <P>Hey! At least they've never had any broken bones...yet! LOL<P>Mitz
<P>
I truly admire you (very seriously)<P>3 boys must be a handful...do the nurses at the Dr or ER wince when they see you come barrelling into the parking lot...or are you like me...if it isn't life threatening, take your time and calmly find a space to park and as you stroll into the office with one bloody child gently admonishing the others about appropriate behavior...<P>B
Sorry about the needed needlework. I've had each child to ER once. I go more often for myself than I do for them.<P>Son had his eyelid laid open by hinge on his glasses. We were scuffling one night. He climbed on my back and as he slid off, he didn't put his arms out to catch himself. Daughter had her lip laid open by the point of a metal spaceship son was playing with just as the first of three guests arrived for surprise dinner. He got steri-strips,<BR>she got stitches.<P>I'm the one who gets hurt the most. My hands have battle scars. At least once a year I have to go in.<BR>
I'm used to the trips to the ER now.<BR>I'm cool as a cucumber when I go in!
<P>The only time I lost my cool was the first time my 8 yr old needed the stitches between his eyes. He was only 11 months old and I have to say, I freaked out! LOL LOL I ended up crying more than he did! LOL I've had to take them there for sooo many different things. <P>Thanks for the compliment. <P>Mitz
Cinderella,<P>Sounds like you are like my mom...accident prone!
She's always doing something to hurt herself. She works in a bakery and is always either cutting herself or burning herself. I told her she needs to have heavy gloves on all the time! LOL<P>Mitz
OK people!! Only 45 more to go!! I expect to hit 2000 by Sunday at the latest. If I have to, I'm gonna post 45 times in a row!!!!! <P>Mitz
Finaly...a bright sunny day in the piedmont
<P>Now I can go out and bush-hog my yard...I also have a pile of laundry you wouldn't believe (our dryer checked out on monday)...so after I wash everything it is off to the lmat to dry everything...oh...fun...lolol<P>ok off to the wonderful worl of chores<P>Bill
Bill,<P>Geez, thanks for reminding me that I have laundry to do! Along with all the other stuff! YUCK!!<P>BTW, when you're done with your yard, come on over and do mine. It's looking pretty scary! <P>Mitz
Mitzi,<P>I don't know about your yard , and I really am ashamed to admitt this, but I haven't been able to mow mine since Aug4.<P>My cousin and BIL are going to the pool and I am stuck doing chores...oh...woes...me...LOL<P>Bill
Ok, I didn't get anything done today. <P>It's this damned internet!!
<P>Mitzi
I cut the grass today at my place and my Mom's. I ran over a kitten, shouldn't have been standing there. Not my fault. You should have seen the blood and fur fly. I felt bad for about 5 seconds, then ate the good parts!<P>Just kidding, I froze the good parts for later.<P>Zip
Ok guys...wish me luck...I'm going out tonight...hopefully I will meet some lewd and lascivios woman...I doubt it though...but hey you never know right...<P>Hey medic I love lawnmower groung kitten...marinade it in italian dressing the mahe kabobs
<P>Bill
Bill and Tim,<P>You guys are AWFUL!! Remind me not to bring my cat to Nashville! LOL<P>Bill,<P>Have fun tonight!<P>Mitzi
<P>Okay, shhhhhhhhh. I just escaped downstairs from five twelve year old boys........<BR><B>AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH</B><P>I feel better now
<P>
Claire,<P>OMG!! How brave are you!!!! LOL LOL<P>I won't tell! <P>Mitz
Mitzi,<P>Not very brave.....just really, really nutso!<BR>Actually, they're really good kids...and hilarious! <P>How's the human roadmap? Any more detours reflected on the map today - any more traintracks? Seriously, it sounds like he's okay - I hope so.
Claire,<P>He's ok. He's been out riding his bike and playing ball all day. He's a pretty tough guy! It's still a little swollen and the bruise is starting to turn green. And he was complaining because it's starting to itch. Sounds like it's healing to me.<P>Mitz
Now I remember why I hate going to bars...<P>A) I don't drink...<P>B) I get mad atmyself because I know I don't have the balls to go up to someone and start a conversation or ask them to dance...<P>Bill
Geez, I go to bed early and miss all the fun! (Just a little sarcasm here! LOL)<P>Ok, it's Sunday! We've got 32 more posts to go!! I think if we all are determined, we can do it!!!!! Do we need cheerleaders??
<P>Bill,<P>It's hard to get into the swing of the single life. Just take your time! <P>Mitz
Jodie,<P><BR> Good Morning.<P> I was going to e-mail you last night,but my mail server was down for"maintenance".On a Sat.night?I think they do that just to p!ss people off!<P> It's dark,wet,and yucky out here.
<BR> What's it doing there?<P> ~~Murph<P>
Hey Murph!<P>It's cool out here. I think it's gonna rain. If it does, it looks like it will probably sprinkle all day. And here I wanted to get the grass cut (or at least supervise! LOL) Guess I'll just be stuck inside all day! Oh well, it's not like I don't have anything to do inside! LOL LOL (The laundry is piling up! LOL)<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> Gee,that's too bad.<BR> I guess the lawn will just have to wait.<BR> Good thing I did my yardwork yesterday.<P> The laundry?<BR> Just throw the clothes in,dump in some soap,and slam the lid.....you're done!<P> ~~Murph<P>
Murph,<P>If only doing laundry were that easy! First you have to search the bedrooms for any stray socks, then you lug it all down the basement steps. Then there is the task of sorting it (the boys don't want pink socks or underwear! LOL). I'm actually teaching my sons how to do all of this. One other job that I'll be able to get out of! LOL
<P>Now if I could just get them to do dishes!<P>Jodie
Jodie,<P> OK,here's another tip.<P> Buy all the clothes in the same color.<BR> Or at least stick to dark blue,green,and black.Then you can wash it all together.Don't worry about the underwear,no one will see it anyway(no,I meant on your boys).<P> Smart thinking or what?<BR> Listen to old Murph,he'll save you time and money!<P> Now,the dishes..........<P><BR> ~~Murph
Hey Mitzi,<P>I found that getting them to do the dishes was much easier than getting them to pick up their dirty laundry.....<P>Murph,<P>Pretty soggy today, huh? Or is the sun shining, now, down south?
Murph,<P>Already thought of the same color trick. The underwear is the problem. My 8 year old does wear "colorful undies" (his words, not mine! LOL) But my 10 yr old will only wear white. A bit of a dilemma there. <P>With the dishes, the boys think if they let them soak long enough, they don't have to actually wash them. That's a huge problem! LOL<P>Jodie
Murph,<P>Actually, those colors <B>are</B> the mainstay of my kidos' wardrobes......the problem is they have to have some white Tshirts for gym class, and because white Tshirts are cool
(You would have to be living w/my 14 yr old to really understand his concept of cool.)<P>I guess I could always just throw them out when they got too disgusting (?)!
Hey Murph,<P>What's for breakfast?
Claire,<P>OMG! My 10 year old says the same thing about white t-shirts! LOL And he's gotten sooooo particular about his clothes! I knew I would dread this age!<P>Mitz
Good Morning Claire/Bridget,<P> It's raining here,but it's"suppose"to clear up later today.We'll see.<BR> Um,just instant oatmeal for breakfast.<P> Well,you guys are buying their clothes,so they have no right to complain!I'm sure you can explain that to them.....
<P> ~~Murph
Mitzi,<P>Sorry to have to tell you this, but it only gets worse! And I've only got two boys - handmedowns are great, but both of my guys wear the same sizes, so it's two of everything! And <B>shoes</B>, OMG!! I don't even want to get started......<P>
Good Morning all!!<P>Mitzi,<P>I am glad to see that you son is doing better!
I have yet to have to do any of that yet! <<<< gina's fingers crossed.>>>><P>Zippy,<P>Man, that poor itto bitty kitty!
<BR>LOL. <P>Bill,<P>I am sorry that you didn't have any fun!<BR>Don't look at it as going out and getting some.(I know,I know,then what is the point!)<BR>LOL.Just look at it as going out w/friends,enjoying the music and watching other people make fools of them selves!<BR>LOL
<P>See all better now!<P>Murph,<P>I was down all afternoon,and evening.<BR>My mom and dad sent me the program of Windows 98 to down load on my PC.<BR>Along w/a CAMERA!!!!!<P>So I was trying to down load and stayed up till 2:00 and still didn't get it to work!<P>AAARRRRRGGHHH! talking about withdrawl!<P>Got it up and running this am.<BR>YIPPEE!<P>Thl,<P>You asked if anyone on the other threads if they had a CAMERA for the NV trip.<P>I have one,I have one,I have one!!!<P>Boy are you all in for it now!!!<P>Gina w/a Camera can be pretty dangerous!!!<BR>

Murph,<P>Come on! You can do better than instant oatmeal! French toast, eggs and bacon, even Pop-Tarts! LOL LOL<P>Ever try taking a 5th grader shopping? They would rather do without than get what MOM wants them to! LOL LOL<P>Jodie
Murph,<P>Instant oatmeal!?! No eggs, hashbrowns, bacon, french toast, <B>blueberry</B> pancakes, steak.....? How can a person survive? At least you're eating breakfast
By the time I'll be done making breakfast for the crew that is at my house this morning (5 twelve yr olds) I'll be lucky if there's anything left in the fridge! Of course they didn't finally go to sleep last night until about 2 so maybe I'll only have to fix them lunch!
<P>
Claire,<P>We've already started on the shoe thing. I told them that I have x amount of money to spend on shoes and if they can't pick out something in that price range, I would do it for them. It didn't take them long to find shoes!
<P>Gina,<P>I'm taking a camera to NV too. Mine's just a plain old 35mm though. But I will get copies for anyone who wants them.<P>How's school going? Any news on the PE stud??
<P>Mitz
Uh-Oh.....I hear stirring from upstairs.<BR>Dang, I wish I could bottle their energy! <P>Gina!<P>Sounds like you're going to be the designated shooter! This could also include tequila, whiskey....
<P>How many posts to 2000?<P>
Gina,<P> A guy at work tried putting in Win 98 on his older PC.He had nothing but trouble.Finally took it in to a shop to have it work right.<BR> So I guess you didn't get that pix of me doing the nude sunbathing in the backyard that I sent yesterday?
<P> I wasn't all that hungry this morning.Probably will have a big lunch.<P> Gee,when I was a kid(here we go),all we had was Keds,and PF Flyers.Remember those?<P><BR> ~~Murph
OK,I think that since Mitzi started this thread,SHE should be handing out the prize for the 2000th post.Sound fair?<P> How about an autographed 8x10 Glossy of the famous Redhaired Goddess herself?<P> I guess I'd settle for that......<P><BR> ~~Murph
ONLY 12 more to go!! YIPPEE!!!!!!!!<P>Gina, Get your camera ready!!<P>Mitz
Murph,<P>with the Red Dots!!! Oh boy, a trip down memory lane
And now everything is right back in style from when I was in junior high - "hip huggers", bell bottom jeans that have to drag on the floor, horizontal stripes on sweaters in 'ugly' colors, blue nail polish....
OK, I won't be like the guys and not hand out the prize. Whoever posts the 2000th post will get an 8x10 color glossy of anyone they want. My treat!! LOL LOL LOL<P>Mitz
Okay everybody.....the hordes are wanting their breakfast!! Let's get to that 2000 mark quickly so I don't have to miss another milestone, okay?<P>Then what? We'll have to start another thread and see if we can get to 2000 in fewer # of days....
Mitzi,<P>Does the 8 X 10 have to be of someone on the board - or anyone? LOL How are you gonna get a picture of Paul Newman for me? (no, you can't just tear one out of a magazine!)
Ok, you guys are showing your ages talking about clothes like that! LOL LOL <BR>The 8x10 will be of anyone you want! Claire, I'll just call up my good friend Paul and ask him for a picture! LOL (yeah, right!)<P>Mitz
Jodie,<P> Well,OK,maybe you can get me a pix of the Student?
<P> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>Hmmmmmmm...I hear she's camera shy! LOL (shrugging shoulders) I don't know..but I'll do my best!<P>Jodie
Mitzi,<P>I'm proud of my age! It is kind of funny tho, that everything old is new again! And, why in the world would they choose the things they do? UGH!<P>Is everyone else in hiding until post 1999?
Jodie,<P> A blond Demi Moore,camera-shy?<BR> That's hard to believe.<BR> But she does live over your way.<BR> You might have to play spy.....<P> ~~Murph<P>
Here we go!!!!!!!<P>Who is going to post 2000? Is cindyrelly out there lurking? I know Gina is! <P>Murph,<P>Where did you go? Did you decide to make some bacon & eggs for me? Don't forget the hashbrown, I love hashbrowns
I can play spy! Not a problem!<P>Ok you lurkers! Don't even think about jumping in on this now!<P>Jodie
<BR>
Ok,I'd rather have a pix of the RHG...<P> ~~Murph

And my complete address. Some even have my phone #. Yeah, I'm a real mystery! LOL LOL<P>Gina asked me if I knew your real name. Of course, I had to tell her no, since you won't tell!

Gina,<P>I'm sure Butterfly will be fine with going out of the room to smoke! I don't think she wants to have a room soooo far away from the PAJAMA PARTY! Should we invite the guys to the PAJAMA PARTY??!!<P>Mitz
Maybe the guys should have a Pajama Raid?
<P><BR> ~~Murph
Murph,<P>I knew one of you guys would come up with that! LOL <P>When I was younger, they were called panty raids! LOL LOL<P>Mitz

Oh No!!<P>I forgot Zippy!!!! <P>Zipman,<P>You can indulge me by bringing laughter into my life when you post to this forum.....I appreciate it - and your more serious nature too!
Claire,<P>What about copies of the pix Gina takes in NV????????? You have to ask for that as a prize!!!<P>Mitz
Mitz,<P>I thought that was a given!!! Okay, okay...<BR>Gina? Can I have copies of pics from NV?
But(t) I get to choose which ones, right?
Claire,<P>You can get copies, but(t) you have to share them!! (And Gina I want my own set!!!! LOL)<P>Mitz
I was gone all weekend and missed the orgy. <P>Woe is me. Guess I need to spring for a computer and internet. Could I take up a collection. If you all cough up the computer, I could probably manage the internet. Mitzi - what's the deal w/ web tv. Bet you can't word process though. I just need a few more thousand per month. I could live ok then.<P>I'll bring my 35mm camera to our conference. What do you think we should ask them to put on the marquee. However, I think that, if it cost anything, that's something I could live without.
Cinderella,<P>WebTV is only for email and searching the internet. But they did just recently add MSN messenger. ANd hey! it only costs about $150 (terminal and keyboard together) and you can either use web tv's internet service or find your own ISP. No, no word processing but you can also get a printer for it. <P>Is it January yet??
<P>Mitz
Well, a girl has to work for a few days, and ya'll go and post 2000 without me
.
<P>I've been so busy I haven't even been online except for work.... But, I'm almost ready to leave on my vacation.... only 2 days and 23 hours to go!!!!! WOOO HOOOO!!!!<P>Murph & Clair.... you've got mail (hotel & flight info).<P>Clair... I guess you are the one who wins the prize.... and, YES, I will go golfing with you.... next week.
<P>I'll have to try to make some time to catch up on the rest of the posts later... I want to leave here for 2 weeks and not worry that something didn't get done before I left!<P>Smooches to all!<BR>B
So, two weeks of vacation. You know it's been a long time since I had one of those. The last few summers we went to Florida to see my mom. Other than that and a couple of weekends away, last real vacation I had was almost 8 yrs. ago. Last one before that was 2 years earlier. <P>I'm jealous. I NEED A VACATION!!!!!!!!!
oh no the mega thread can't die...LOL

OH MY GOD,<P>I CANNOT believe this thread is STILL going........<BR>I've been 'away' for about 3 months now, (getting back into this 'work' thing), and I often wondered how this thread ended up.<BR>I should have known, it wouldn't end, it would just keep going, and going, and going, and going........<P>I'm going to go back and try and catch up with all the 'goss', but obviously it won't happen tonight. It will probably take me a month.<P>So much has happened in my little life over the last 3 months.<BR>Work is going great, I love the flying. I work with people who make me laugh every day. I enrolled my firstborn in school yesterday, to start 29 Jan 2001. I can't believe my first baby is starting school. I have filed for divorce. But now I don't know if I've done the right thing. I'm very very confused right now. I will post a big update on my situation, but I won't do it here. It's going to take me months to compose it (I typed 'compost' it then, instead of compose... isn't that the truth!!!!!!!!!)<P>Can't wait to read what you guys have been saying<P>love and hugs to all<P>Jo<BR>
So, we're still hanging in there, huh?
Hi Cinderella,<P>is that me that is still hanging in there, or the thread??????<P>If you mean me, yep, but sometimes only just.<BR>I'm now on the divorce rollercoaster ride. ie, am I doing the right thing, should I hang on for just a little bit longer....<BR>I'm sure he would have me hanging on for the rest of my life.<BR>Oh well, more of that later.<P>Just after I posted last night, my baby (2 1/2) woke up and wanted to sleep in my bed. The computer is in my bedroom so that was the end of that. I have a little while now before I have to start getting ready for work, so I'm going to try and catch up with everyone.<BR>I was looking for a post from Lostva to see how she and Robert are going. I have thought of everyone so often while I have been in my own little world so now I will catch up.<P>take care of you,<P>Jo
Well, a woman's gotta do what a woman's gotta do. And someone has to keep this thread alive. But lately it has been like having a cyberconversation with myself.
Hey you guys!<P>I've ignored this thing long enough! LOL<P>Cinderella,<P>You lady, have kept this thing going!! YIPPEE!!!<P>Bonnet,<P>Hey Jo!! I'm so glad things are going good for you at work!

Bringing this site back to the top because I use the roll call on page 117.
Anyone want to see this again or shall we let it fade off into the sunset?
I took a look at it myself last night, but thought I'd let someone else resume it as I was only a very small part of it.<P>
I use the roll call on page 117 sometimes so I'm bringing this back up.

Oh please! Everyone knows that I'm the innocent party in all of this! Right, everyone?! <P>Notice the thread that was closed was JAYHAWK'S! And Mitzi's mega-thread is still open!
Well, I've been a participant on several "questionable" threads.... I guess I'm in trouble too.... maybe I'll just go hide in a corner for a while.<P>See ya'll around.<BR>Flutterbutt

Gina-Babe!!!<P>Hey!!! Maybe since we brought this back, Murph will show up!! (And he better have the ice cream!)<P>Bill,<P>I was thinking how much fun this thing was!!! Plus SOMEONE talked me into it!!
<P>So...since this thing is slow posting, I have a dilemma. Do we keep going with this one, and put up with it?? OR do I start a new one and go from there??? Any opinions??<P>Mitzi
Even the mega-thread still needs Chap! <P>And it's safe here... peace, ah, blessed peace... right here next to the hot tub!<P>Party on!!

<P>Hey guys! We have a chaperone!!<P>Mitzi
We could get [censored] or The Student.
<P>I'm ready!!
I've been thinking about this thread. Sure have been missing it. Remember this is where the plans for January's hot tub party were hatched. And I still have the name, phone number, and address of that hotel in case we need to have another one. The hot tub is huge.
In an enclosed room away from the guest rooms so we could party there all night long.
Yipee!!!! It's Baaaaaacccccckkkkk!!<P>Let's party on! I'm getting ready for VA Beach now... but Ms. Princess, I'll be coming back to Nashville again sometime too!<P>Eeeekkkkk..... now I've got to get this bod in shape for the beach!!!! HELP!!!
<P>Smooches!
Still looking for a job.
Not many nibbles. No way I can forsee making Virginia Beach unless I find a sugardaddy or a fairy godmother.
<P>However, I'll plan another Nashville Bash at the drop of a hat.
<P>Laser Tag!!!!!!!! Got a great place here. Any takers?<p>[This message has been edited by cinderella (edited March 20, 2001).]
Cinderella,<P>I vote you find a sugardaddy!!!<P>Then you can spontaneously combust for a good reason!
<P>Mitzi
So, you read that thread. Help me out somebody! I intended for it to be a funny one and they've turned it into something depressing. <P>Go post on it and turn it around.<P>If I were going to find a sugardaddy, he'd have to be a fine man and have lots of sugar.
Hey Cinderella.... if you find a Sugar Daddy, see if he's got a brother!
<P>Ok, so I saw a post about spontanious combustion and had to read it! I figured you had a hot date or something, and were going to share all the gory details
.<P>Mitz... same goes on the Sugar Daddy deal. Hope your little one enjoys daycare, and you enjoy a little less worry. <P>I'm still looking for roomies for VA Beach.... maybe I'll find a SD on my own and have him pay for me!
Butterfly, I want to congratulate you!!!!!<P>You were the 2100 post!!!!!!!
<P>Too bad there wasn't a prize - but we never got our prizes for those other "magic numbers"
<P>About that spontaneous combustion thread. Can you imagine sitting in church and they're talking about all that love, and lust, and passion? Sounds like everyone may need to go home and take cold showers.<P>How is your knee doing?? And your eyes?????<P>(((((((((((((((Dawnetta)))))))))))))
Butterfly,<P>My youngest likes daycare but still cries every morning when I drop him off!!
<P>I'll let ya know on the sugar-daddy thing!<P>Cinderella,<P>I tried to help out on your thread! Maybe it'll turn around!<P>BTW, how do you gals feel about men in uniform??? I saw a guy I know today and he's a cop. Yep! He was in uniform!! WHEW!!!!!! KABOOM!!!!<P>
<P>Mitzi
A Cop!!!!<P>Jesus, Mary & Joseph!!!!!<P>Mitzi......didn't you learn ANYTHING?????<P>ACK!!!!<P>Hugs anyway,<P>Sheba
I have always loved a man in uniform.<P>But, I'm really attracted to construction workers for some reason. So tan, working out there in the sun all day . . . . .
Mitzi:<P>Boy, this thread brings back a lot of memories. Dana kicked you out of my dating thread and you started this one.<P>What ever happened to Murphy?
Hey Sheba!!<P>It's not that he's a cop! It's just the uniform!!
<P>Hey Jen!<P>Construction workers??? KABOOM!! KABOOM!!!<P>Yeah, this was a lot of fun wasn't it??<P>Murph is still kickin'. I hear from him a good bit. He doesn't hang out here much but I think he lurks more than he'll admit to!
<P>Hi Murph!!<P>Mitzi
Good Morning Girls,<P><BR>Men in uniforms and contruction workers?<P>Hey Mitz the summer is a coming does men in swim truncks count??? ROTFLMAO.[for some reason, now I don't care about looking at that.....hummmm,wonder why?]<P>See you girls soon!!<P>OH,......HI ya Murph!!

<P>Tan men, in swimming trunks!! It's gonna be a long, hot summer!!
<P>Butterfly,<P>You got a camera?? Take pictures!! <P>As for your prize, I guess you could say that the guys chickened out! BOCK BOCK!!<P>Mitzi
The Diet Coke Man is one of my screensavers!!<P>
Just an additional post to help out. And to say "Hi" to All. Been a long long time and I'm still kickin!<P>Special Hello to Mitzi and Murph!<P>Love,<BR>Jo
Once I worked in an office where the view became a construction site as they built an addition to the office building next door. There was one chunky guy whose job it was to sit on the scaffolding all day. I don't remember what he did but I think he just sat in that one spot the whole time they were working on the building. Anyway, there were three women, including me, working in this room right behind his spot on the scaffolding. We had the "rear view" So, we named our friend "Moondoggy". Never did learn his name or see his face. <P>I know a woman who says that the skilled tradesmen are often skilled in a variety of ways.
I personally couldn't attest to that. <P>Butterfly, those guys really did chicken out. You never did get what was reported to be a "grope shot" of them.
And I never did get a couple of prizes I should have gotten. Some kind of buddies we have, right?
Hey Daisy Jo!!<P>A special HELLO!! to you too!! How are ya??<P>Cinderella,<P>We weren't talking about THAT type of construction worker!!
<P>Mitzi
I can't believe this thread is still going...and going.....and going.........<P>I think I've missed about a hundred pages tho, I bet I missed a party... but, look out VA beach.<P>I love saying that. You guys all shorten your states and your town names, "VA Beach", we would say Virginia Beach, or at least Virginia. It's so cool having friends who speak differently!!!!!!!!!!!<BR>My cousins from England think we sound American.!!! Now they're strange....<P>Butterfly, I'll room with you, but only if you don't leave the toilet seat up!!! I posted on Medic's thread about VA Beach. Someone said something about bad habits, does anyone share my penchant for onion and garlic sandwiches do you think???????????? Whew.............. Do you still want to share!!!!!!<P>Hey Mitzi, can't wait for the marguerita's - how many bottles have you got. I've got no shoes packed because the space has all been taken with 'other' things!!!!!!!!!<P>Jo<P>
Hey Jo!<P>Bottles?? Forget that! I'm packing gallon jugs!! LOL LOL LOL<P>Hey! I really hope you can make it to the states. I'm still trying to figure out a way to go without my kids hating me! They might get to tag along. (And I'd bring a sitter!) They just want to see the ocean!<P>Mitzi
Gallon jugs????????? OMG - that's wonderful. I'll have 10!!!!<P>I also don't know what I'm going to do with my kiddly winks!! I'm thinking of asking the ex if he could have them while I'm gone. I did have a plan to take them to disneyland and then bring them over to VA Beach. How old are yours? Maybe we could share the costs of the sitter if I do end up bringing mine.<BR>When you say sitter, is it someone you know, or will you hire the hotel sitter? Friends of mine did that in the states, and got the sitter that had been at the White House!! Maybe there's a hotel chain over there called the White Houes Motel or something!!!!!!<P>Ok, now I need to reasses my suitcases. If you're bringing gallon jugs I wonder how much extra baggage I can have.!!! This trip is going to cost me a fortune, Not in airfares accommodation etc but booze!!!!!!!!!<P>REally, I do have something that I need to share. I don't drink all that much, but when I've had enough, I know and I just go to sleep. Doesn't matter where I am, or who with. I just fall asleep. I've missed two of my own parties that way.!!!!!!! My friends let themselves out at 1.30 am and turned the lights out on their way!!!!!<P>The day I got divorced, some friends came over to make sure I was ok, stayed a while, drank some more, and then let themselves out. I've never lived it down that I missed my own divorce party!!!!!!!<P>Anyway, can't wait. This is so exciting. I've counted the number of pays til then, yippee......... as long as the aussie dollar doesnt' fall any further I'll be ok, otherwise you'll all have to come here......<P>hugs, and get those jugs ready<P>Jo<P>
Hey Jo-Jo!<P>My kids are 11, 8 1/2 and 4. All 3 boys. I asked a friend of mine if she wanted to tag along to watch them. She said she would since she only works on weekends. I'm not sure what she'd charge me, I might just have to buy her food!! That would be excellent!<P>I don't think we have White House Hotels! LOL LOL And I'm not sure that the Ramada Inn has sitters. <P>I must confess, I don't drink much either. I used to before I became a single, working mom. But now, it only happens on the rare occassion. I tend to get really sappy when I drink. I love everyone! Embarassing!!!!!<P>Bring the kiddos if you need to! <P>Mitzi
Hey Mitz,<P>I'm baaack.<P>This could work couldn't it. My girls are nearly 6 and nearly 3. Perfect playmates for your boys. We'll have to talk more about this. Maybe we can get the family room happening!!!!! Or at least the rooms with inter-connecting doors.....<P>I never really did drink much anyway, well, not since I was early 20's,!!!! but the thought of waking up with a hangover and 2 young children just puts me right off. I did do it once, and I swore I'd never do it again. It was one of those whingy whiney mornings, nothing went right, everything ended up on the floor, baby pooped in her cot (yuck yuck yuck) and I had the hangover of all hangovers!!<P>NEVER NEVER AGAIN........<P>Now if I go out, it's when he has the children, so if I do indulge, I can be sad and sorry by myself in the morning!!!<P>We;ll have to talk more about this.<P>I have to go soon and pick them up from school and day-care. Then I'm heading down to Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast to have dinner with my parents. Friday nights are mine and the girls fun friday nights. Tonight we're having fish and chips on the beach with Nanny and Grampy. Should be great. The weather is divine, nice and warm but not muggy.<P>see you<P>Jo<P>
JO!!! JO!!!!<P>Please....please, send some warm weather here!! It's cold and rainy in WV!!!!<P>You mean, you get to go out?? Gee...I don't know what that's like anymore. (A$$ doesn't take the boys at all) But, it's ok. I really don't mind. I love my kids and I love being a mom. <P>We WILL definately talk more about VA beach! It would be a blast!!<P>Mitzi
711: I can't believe that you have a screen saver of me from back in my modeling days. Man, that was a great campaign.<P>Cinderella: For the record, us skilled 'tradesmen' are definately skilled in other areas as well. Whomever came up with that theory was a pretty wise person
<P>Bonnet: Just wanted to say hi to ya. I'll be taking a flight next month, but I'm realtively sure it won't be on your airline. But just in case, if you see a ruggedly handsome man wearing a Kansas Jayhawks ballcap, be extra nice to him...<P>Butterfly: How are those "peepers" doing?<P>Mitzi: Now that I have responded to your MEGA-THREAD, will you please get off my A$$???<P><p>[This message has been edited by Jayhawk 93 (edited March 23, 2001).]

Jawhawk:<P>I'm sending you a ticket to Atlanta now that I know your true identity. I mean what a combination. Great mind and beautiful body. Geez!
Cinderella is standing here beside her luggage, tapping her toes.<P>She has been waiting for Fair Prince Jayhawk's carriage to arrive. It was supposed to come a few months ago to take the beautiful princes, that means Cinderella, to the Kingdom of Kansas where she was to be wined and dined and.........
Ah Fair Maiden,<P>Allow me to extend thy humblest apologies to thee. There was a recent revelation in the glorious Kingdom of Kansas and your handsome prince was exiled from the promised land of milk and honey. Word came down that the Queen herself was a fancier of fornication in her youth and during a night of passion, your handsome prince was conceived. When the King found out of this disgrace, he was outraged and lost his head (as did the Queen). To make matters worse, the truth was revealed that your handsome prince was actually sired by the village idiot, a vagabond by the name of Zippy. The King was absolutely beside himself, but out of love and respect for the son he had raised as his own, he agreed to spare the life of this handsome, one-time prince. The only condition, your prince was instructed to leave his kingdom at once, only being allowed the clothes on his back, his horse and a small pouch with two bits worth of gold. The warning was also given to all of the kingdom that this [censored] son was not to be permitted anywhere near this cherished kingdom again.<P>Taking heed to the King’s warning, the townspeople rushed your handsome from their noble kingdom instructing him never to return. So Fair Maiden, your handsome prince has fallen from grace and is now a grizzly nomad, searching kingdom after kingdom for his long lost idiot of a father. There are no more carriages, no more riches and no more tales of promised far away lands. Although this man is still handsome, a prince he can longer be…..<P>Do not fret princess, the moon and the stars above shine brightly on thee and a true prince, one who is truly deserving of the attention of such a goddess, will surface when the planets are aligned. A princess such as thee will find her prince at the least likely moment. Listen to the wisdom of this once mighty prince, for you are destined a life greatness.<P>I bid you a fond farewell until I once again happen upon a kingdom which will allow a nomad such as myself access to a PC and the Internet. Adieu!<P>*Disclaimer: All characters and events in this story – even those based on real people – are entirely fictional.

Does this mean I have another kid? Sh*t!!!! Gonna get a letter from Domestic Relations and the child support is going up again.
Yet once again, my fondest dreams are dashed. Perhaps I should renounce my princess status and see if life improves.

Zippy?? Dad????????
<P>I'm the princess around here. I've been told I look a bit like Princess Leia - without the honey buns - so, does that make me your daughter?
Zippy, Darth Vader?<BR>Me, Luke?<BR>Cinderella, Princess Leia?<P>You're my <B>SISTER</B>?<P>Where the heck are we, West Virginia?
Hey! Hey! Hey!<P>You just had to throw something in about WV, didn't you??!! <P>Mitzi
Fair Prince, Jayhawk. Say this isn't so. Please say that they have used some mind-control drug on Zippy, the Pinhead and that he is attempting to delude us and deceive us and destroy the love between us!!!!!!!!<P>Kind sir, please, tell your most humble and adoring princess that this is all a bad dream.

I mean I know I am short, but I am not that fury or green.

Do I hear a Princess/Damsel in distress?<P>as the jedi master,<BR>who has recently returned from far away<BR>islands, who has recently navigated his ship<BR>safely back to port,<P>your rescuer is here!<P>Dear Princess, fire your laser gun so that i may locate you!<p>[This message has been edited by WhenIfindthetime (edited March 30, 2001).]
Obi Wan, use the force. I know you can find me.
knock, knock,<P>Princess, is that you behind this big locked door?<P>the jedi master only confirming what he already knows<BR>to let the princess know that he is here to rescue her!<P>(Ahhhh, i just love rescuing princesses/damsels in distress! the rewards are endless!)<P>
The Princess is hiding behind locked door. She has been studying plans of the prison in order to make her escape. She knows that it is only a matter of time until she is found here and that she must move to safety. The force has apparently led someone to her but is it the real Obi Wan. Has he used his great ability to work with the force? Or is this an imposter?
R2D2, can you decifer this code and open the door, please!<P>we haven't much time left! the dark side will be upon us soon!<P>
Well after a lot of time for introspection, I thought I'd drop by & say hello.<P>Actually I've been out & about quite a bit, but when I saw the Star Wars angle on Mitzi's mega-thread I had to land the 'Falcon & see whom all was here. I always wanted to be Solo. (the character, not the lifestyle
)<P>It's nice to see all of you and kind of fun to be back. I guess I'll have to hang around until I get the hyper-drive fixed....<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again

The Princess, about to discover the way out of her predicament, hears voices in the hall - the voices of two of the men she needs if she and her comrades are to defeat the forces of evil - the ruffian Han Solo and the wise and powerful Obi Wan. She listens quietly knowing that Luke might be nearby.<P>And while she waits, she ponders the powerful and overwhelming stirring she feels in her heart. Why is it that these three men always seem so near?
Now she knows what is wrong!!!<P>Where are her strong and valiant sisters in the cause? The cause of having hot tub parties all weekend long and pursuing personal growth so that they will not be like the doofae by which they often seem surrounded.
Did someone say HOT TUB?? Count me in, I'm there!!<P>You all kinda got off track with all of your Star Wars talk. What's with that?? <P>On to the party talk!!<P>Mitzi
Dorothy from the Land of Oz has ridden up on her great white kangaroo......<P>She also wonders why the three wise men are always where she is..........<P>But she also wonders why Cinderella is always there.......<P>Are there divided loyalties?<BR>Who will open the door?<BR>And who will show himself to be the real Han Solo???<P>Stay tuned, more next week.........
The "real" Han Solo? There must be an imposter lurking around here 'cause only one guy has the keys to the Falcon, and I'm him
<P>So episode four (2) is "Return from Oz"? I'm sure I saw Darth Zippy hanging around here trying to corrupt Luke Jayhawker
<P>Now if Dorothy could just click her heels together & fix the Hyperdrive, we could get out of here before the deathserver explodes....<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Wow, that jump back from light speed sure has scrambled my posting abilities

That is true.<BR>There is an imposter lurking.<BR>He also has keys. It looked like a ford!!!!<P>Dorothy has clicked her heels, but yee gads, the hypermarket hyperdome hyperactive overdrive has exploded and sent her off into the nether regions of........ aaaaaaaghhhhhhhhhh..................<P>WILL SHE RETURN? CAN SHE MAKE HER WAY BACK? OR HAVE THE EVIL FORCES OF WEEWAA ALIMANJUMPA CAPTURED HER FOR THEIR DASTARDLY EXPERIMENT? Stay tuned..........
uh oh, Dorothy captured for a dastardly experiment? This sounds like the part where Han rediscovers his altruistic side and joins the fight against the evil what-ever-the-heck it's-called empire and dashes off in the falcon (at sub light speed) to rescue Dorothy<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Princess Leia now remembers that she has an appointment with Dorothy and she enters the code to disable all the doors in the facility. <P>Rushing out she nearly trips over Obi Wan who, when he hears her fuss about the hot tub party she is about to miss, asks if he can tag along.<P>They arrive just in time to help fix the first pitcher of margaritas. Luke walks over and asks...........
Quick, Princess,<P>i know where to go, follow me,<BR>but first, do they serve Sangria?<P>Here Princess, grab my hand, lets go this way!<P>obi won
Princess, be careful, I am not sure that is his hand that he is extending for you to grab on to to lead you away!!!<P>Dorthy, I think I found your ruby shoes.... if I click the heals three times and say "I wanna go to the hot tub", will they take me there???<P>
Java,<P>the hand is fine now, <BR>the hand is extended to save the princess<BR>from great peril,<BR>BUT give it lots of sangria,<BR>and put it in a hot tub, and <BR>THEN who knows what the hand will do?<P>obi won
The beautiful princess knows that she must hurry - time is wasting. Nearby there is a party at a hot tub.....with sangria as well as margaritas.<P>Haste, everyone!!!!!!!<P>Out of these stupid war fighting clothes and into the swimwear. Into the hot tub. Who has the mixer? The wine? The fruit juice? The ice?<P>Who promises to shower if they've just read the seduction thread on the EN board? If you've been there but you don't shower, you don't get in the hot tub.
what is the code to the damn shower door!<P>I thought hot, manly scent was an aphrodesiac!<P>obi won
My dear Obi Wan,<P>You are correct!!! I like the manly scent! Definately a turn-on!
<P>Mitzi
Oh no!!! Please don't!!!! I don't think I can handle hearing much less activily thinking about how wonderful a man smells!!!! Please... be kind.... it has been way too long for me and I am not sure how much more I can handle while remaining sane.....
<P>And to my dear Obi Wan.... A thousand apologies for possibily even thinking that your intentions were less than honorable. I know that you would never..... But for some reason with all this and my current state of mind, I kept remembering something about guys having this fantasy about Princess Leia in the bikini in Hutt's palace.... As I said, a most humble apologie to you.... BTW.... what that a hot or a COLD shower you were going to be taking???<P>
Sorry to be a buttinski but - if you've read that thread, you might need a cold shower.
bleubelle,<P>You're not a buttinski! Everyone is welcome to join in!<P>Oh, and I read the thread! And I needed the cold shower!<P>Mitzi
hmmm, looks like I'll have to stock up the margarita bar in the 'falcon. I wonder if you can do shooters at lightspeed? And what happens to the water in the hot tub once the hyperdrive is engaged? Good thing she has autopilot

Silly Fools,<P>Once you come over to the dark side, [betrayed and divorced] you will find it is not as bad as you think. Life does go on. Right now the galaxy is at my beconing. I can do anything. <<aaaahhhh... hhhhaaaa>. [I gotta quit smoking]<P>I will see you all in the designated quadrants [VA Beach] at the appropriate spectral space time. You don't want to hear the cries of millions of Earthlings sucumming to their end because you didn't show up, do you?. <P>Hope to see as many of you guys there as possible, come on, it's summer!!! Let's get happy!!!!<P>Happiness comes from within. I couldn't be better!!!!<P>Wishing us all the Best,<P>Zip
OH MY GOD............<P>Dorothy is back from wherever it was she went.....<P>She has no idea what happened whilst there, but is feeling marvellously well, delioursly (sp?) well in fact.<P>Now, a hot tub and a 'margie' will go along way to making her feel even better........ Seeing as she is from a land far far away, she doens't know what sangria is? Are they as good as marguerita's she wonders.........<P>She would like you all to know that VA Beach is looking pretttttyyyyy good........<P>yaaaaaaay.........<P>the only thing is ex-h has informed her that he also wants holidays at the same time, and of course with his needs, wants and desires being of paramount importance, she will now have the children with her...... but never mind, they love hot tubs too, and she can make non-alcoholic margies for them..........<P>Bill, I'll make them for you too if you come........<P>Dorothy<BR>back in the land of OZ
Beautiful Jo - sangria is most often a mixture of fruit juice, wine, and a clear soft drink. Something like ginger ale, orange juice, pineapple juice, lime juice, red wine. Served chilled over ice. Great stuff.<P><p>[This message has been edited by cinderella (edited April 03, 2001).]
Greetings fellow universal travelers!<P>Hans darling..... be a sweetie and swoop on over in the falcon and pick me up for the party. Please.
<P>I go away for a few days, and I come back to find you all having a party without me.... *pout*
And everyone knows I make the best margaritas in the galaxy!<P>Can I borrow someones light saber to blast my X into space crap particles?
OOPS... can't do that... it's poluting! LOL<P>Who is bringing the Galactic Frape Conversion Unit to VA? (AKA ~ The Blender

Seriously doubt I'll make it to the beach
but I want you to know that my son is the proud owner of a STAR WARS COOKBOOK!!:P<P>It has recipes for such things as Sandtrooper Sandies, Greedo's Burritos, Yoda Soda, Princess Leia Danish Dos, Han Burgers, C3PO Pancakes, and I could name more.<p>[This message has been edited by cinderella (edited April 03, 2001).]
So...Star Wars role-playing is continuing! <BR>How 'bout if I use my Star Trek transport thingy to "beam" myself to the HOT TUB PARTY!!!

hmmm I've got this mental image of people materializing in the hot tub unannounced. That could be dangerous. If your transporter isn't correctly sync'd with the hot tub parameters, you could end up superimposed on one of the other hot-tubbers
<P>Or at the very least startle an occupant & possibly cause some margaritas to spill into the hot tub

Nick - I think we are technologically advanced enough that our teletransporters would transmit us into available space rather than occupied space. After all, we are smarter than the average bears.
We do hang out with each other, after all.
So, when is the party? I need to have an income tax party. Came into the office today to work on mine and to be a figment of everyone's imagination. Instead, I worked all day since none of the other women came in. I had to get all the telephone calls and all the people at the door. And humor everyone. Guess what I got done on the stupid taxes?<P>Zip!
<BR>Zero!!
<BR>Nadda!!!
<BR>Nothing!!!!
<P>GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<BR>
Hey guys!!!<P>Only 9 more posts to go before 2200!!!!<P>Who's gonna win the prize and what's it gonna be???<P>I'm still waiting on the pix of the guys doing yardwork without their shirts!
<P>Mitzi
What?? Am I gonna have to post 8 more times and win the prize without any competition??? I will, ya know!!<P>Mitzi
Hey Mitzi, I thought it was jeans? Now it's yardwork without a shirt, what's next?<P>My aren't we greedy
<P>Ok, I will if you will
<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
I think we'll have to do this today. Even if I have to do it all by myself.
<P>Will someone please come out and play!
<P>
Oh... I'll help... if I'm right... only 5 (?) more to go!!

Okay... I am not going for the prize here... but... Thought that I would lend a hand to the cause and post.<P>Hey, any of the guys out there want to do my dishes, yardwork, or anything (shirt optional of course) just let me know!!! I have no problem with that!!
Do the men here actually make housecalls?<P>And what is this about a prize?
I'm gonna be a bad girl and take the prize!
<P>'Cause no one will come out and play with me.
:P<P>Just sitting here, listening to Jonny Lang singing the blues, and wishing I had someone to play with.<P>I win the prize for the 2200 post. Would someone please tell me what is in the gift box? And would you please deliver this time?<P>Make him tall, or not so hall. Handsome, or at least average. Brilliant, or at least smart, intelligent, and articulate. Handy around the house. Lots of fun to be around. Full of laughter. Not afraid to be silly. And maybe some more stuff. I'll be more specific if need be.
OMG!! You guys actually did it!!! YIPPEE!!!!<P>Nick,<P>Sometime in the middle of this thread we started talking about prizes for posting the 1000th post and so on. One of the most favorite ideas among the women was a picure of the MB guys doing yardwork with shorts and no shirts!!
<P>Then...the guys wanted pix of the women. I was even asked to be a stalker! hehehehehe!<P>All in fun!!<P>Mitzi
OMG!!!<P>The MegaThread lives on!!!!!<P>I just decided to check in on everyone - okay, I was lurking - and what do I see? The MegaThread!!!<P>Mitzi - this thing will go down in history. Now I'll have to go back a few pages and see what the heck is happening with everyone. This is the one thread where everyone has a good time. Has Murph been posting too? Now, I've really got to check it out
<P>Claire
Good lord! It's CLAIRE!!<P>Do you honestly think I would let this die??!! NO WAY!!!! <P>Murph isn't posting. He doesn't come here much anymore. But I think he's secretly lurking!
<P>Mitzi
Hey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<P>Mitzi!!!!!!!!!<P>Is anyone else around right now?<P>Mitzi,<P>I think you're correct. Murph is probably lurking around, just as I sometimes do. Although I haven't been to the site for - gosh, I don't know how long! A really long time!<BR>Guess my life is pretty good right now (gloat, gloat
) Although the X doesn't want to let me be happy. Too bad for him. It's amazing what letting go will do for your life and your outlook. As far as I'm concerned he's nothing to worry about anymore (except that he still knows how to make me mad).<P>Well, off to other threads for awhile....type at you all later! And at the rate that this thing posts replies I might be waiting all night!<P>Hey, did anybody ever find Chewy? <P>I wanna be one of the fighter pilots! Cool!<P>Claire
Hey Claire!!<P>Murph tells me that he doesn't lurk, but I don't believe him!
It's too hard to stay away! I did it for a month and it just about killed me! LOL LOL<P>My life is going really good too! Hectic but good! Letting go did a lot for me last year. And ya know what? I don't have ANY regrets!! NONE!! <P>Here's to the good life!<BR>Mitzi
Hey Claire!!! Hey Mitz!!! Hey Princess!!!<P>I try to stay away some too... but it just doesn't work.
<P>Hum.... I was thinking about telaporting to the hot tub. Maybe I could set it to purposely transport me onto someone's lap???
LOL<P>I think this weekend I'll do my spring cleaning.... any of you guys want to drop buy and help?? I'll get out the digital camera and take pictures for all the ladies if you do!
<P>Well, it's back to the grind for a few more hours.... see ya'll this weekend!<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty
Butterfly, what kind of grind are you going back too?
<P>And how's your knee? And how are your eyes?
Well, my son & I did yard work shirtless yesterday, in honor of the ladies. Too bad the batteries in my digital camera went dead. Dang I hate it when that happens
<P>I'm telling you this teleporting unannounced into the hot tub could be dangerous. Spilled margaritas would be the least of our worries
Imagine the splash!
<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
I tried to do the shirtless yard-work thing myself yesterday. It was a beautiful, sunny and warm day with just the slightest breeze.<P>Once I took of my shirt, the sun hid behind some clouds. I guess that was God's why of telling me to put my shirt back on
<P>
Hey! WOW!!!<P>I did my yardwork topless too!!
<P>But I seriously doubt I looked as good as you guys!
<P>Mitzi
Mitzi, you tease!
<P>Well, I just got back from working in the yard for a second day with no shirt on & didn't get a single catcall.
Guess I need to add more weight to the barbells.....<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Hey..........<P>who the heck just spilled my margie.........<P>Now I have to go make another one and I think I've got the wobbly boot on........<P>
Jo!<P>I speak Southern but not as well as do you. Pray tell, what is a "wobbly boot"?<P>I did a spot of yard work myself this past week.....with my shirt on. Could any of you guys pop round and fix my mower?
Gads Mitzi,<P>Of course no one noticed, you are related to everyone down there in WV. [Sorry, I couldn't help myself]
You can beat on me in VA Beach later. I can take the pain, I was M twice, member?<P>LAWN WORK? Damn it, do you know how much trouble it is to turn the key to start the mower and sit on your [censored] cutting grass. Hey, that rhymed!!!<P>It was T top weather here in eastern PA today. YUMMY. Can't wait for June!!!<P>The Pinhead
Any of you handsome fellows want to come help maintain my 1/2 acre?
You can do it with or without your shirt.
Unless you're fat.
<P>I'll feed you and keep you filled with water and/or lemonade. And I'll let you come in to use the bathroom.

What, no studly, helpful, handy guys??<P>I"M BUMMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are there no kind, helpful, studly men around here willing to help this woman? I bet she makes good lemonade.
Hi cinderella<P>OK, as a athlete in fine shape, i can do your yard work.<BR>I can lift mowers and leaves, lots of them.<BR>you live in the south? let me know when and where, and I will be able to play a game at your stadium.<P>but, i require beer, not lemonade!<BR>and lots of it, for the post game interview.<P>sg
Hi Cinderella,<P>the 'wobbly boot' is an expression we use when we've had too much to drink. You know, when you can't walk straight, your knees feel a bit funny and you walk like the scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz.........<P>Whenever I've had too much to drink (not too often these days!!) I always feel it in my knees first. Must have sensitive knees I guess.!!!!!!!<P>Well, roll on sensitive knees in June. The margueritas will be toooooo good to refuse, and I just have to try sangria. Now, pushups for the knees, does anyone have a receipe... I need to firm up the knees!!!!!!!<P>Hope you had a great Easter<P>see you soon<P>Jo
Jo- the wobbly boot explanation makes sense. Hmmm - I have a knee that seems a bit wobbly too these days. Don't know what happened there.<P>And SportsGuy, yup, I'm in the south - Bananaville as far as the airline industry is concerned - Nashville, TN home to the Nashville Sounds - a AAA farm team (no clue as to who owns the sounds), to the Nashville Kats - arena football national runners-up last year, Tennessee Titans - NFL, and Nashville Predators - NHL, and the Nashville Kangaroos - Australian rules football, and the Nashville Metros - soccer. Sometimes see lacrosse players across teh street from my office. And I think we have a polo club. <P>And my grass is very tall. I need emergency lawn care!!!
I just had to post in a thread with 149 pages!<P>Yardwork - shorts and a well-fitting t-shirt (wink, wink) is what I wear. Now, if I could just have enough sun for a little tanning action.
<P>I haven't seen any of you shirtless men mowing lawns in my neighborhood - dang it!
<P>The only guy I've seen is old Mr. Ford down the street. You may have seen him too - balding, 3 day beard growth, the beer gut and a belly button that looks like it could swallow small animals whole.
<P>Sports guy keeps talking...but I've yet to see him drive by my house and offer to mow my lawn. Maybe it's the presence of my 14 year old son with the bleached blonde on top two-tone hair that's keeping him away?
<P>Cheers to you all (and a beer for SG)

<P>Does riding my trainer in just my cycling shorts count? <P> <P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
I'm wearing the sunglasses to hide the tears and my fake smile to fool everyone into thinking that I'm happy.<P>Yeah, sure many things make me happy, but only for a while, why dosn't anything that makes me happy last?<P>I've had two marriages, several relationships, they all start off great, but everything changes, to me any kind of relationship is a waste of time.<P>I'm in a relationship right now and he only thinks of himself. I can't say anything to him, everything is my fault. I don't leave him because everyone tells me that if I don't give it a chance I'll never have anything. I have gotten to the point that nothing means anything to me anymore.<P>I'm Hopeless!!!<BR>
Shirtless housework...I don't think much cleaning would get done...but I'd be willing to give it the "old college try."
again...and again..and again...*giggle*<P>Geez, I need to get a boyfriend soon.
<P>Lisa
Forget the housework and the yard work, I'm just going to watch Nick ride his trainer!!!! <P>Soon2b alone.....I'm with you the VA beach get away is just too far away. We need to get something organized for us here on the west coast. Lots of great places around!
Hey Cinderella,<P>you have an AFL football team in your home town????<BR>Gads, up here in Brisbane all we get is rugby, we get very little coverage of the AFL, and I LIVE here for pete's sake.<P>Maybe I should move to Nashville, at least I'd get to see some football.......<P>There's also the interesting concept of shirtless yardwork/housework. I like that concept!!<P>Now, where's my passport, and who will sponsor me in to the US. I won't need benefits, I'll start my own company - a shirtless cleaning company. Who wants a job???????<P>Oh, and Nick, can I watch you train some time. Those little bike shorts get me every time......<P>have a great day<BR>Jo
Hey Jo,<BR>I'll take one of those jobs! I'm looking now... hopeing to be moving somewhere new in the next few months (within 6 at least!) Besides the obvious
what other benefits will you be offering?
Are you going to employ guys too? Ya know, a shirtless HandyMan for the HoneyDo list for us single ladies.
<P>Well, gang, if anyone knows of a good job that pays lots and lots of $$$, let me know. I'm game to move just about anywhere out of this crummy state (NM).<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty
Hey Butterfly,<P>of course I'll employ men - in these days of EEO how could we not!!!!! Besides, what do you think of the planned uniform for them....<P>Bike shorts...... that's it............that's all..... <BR>All their nice little 'lunchboxes' packed neatly and tidily!!!!!!!!! OMGoodness, where's this 'rudery' coming from this morning......... I'll blame Nick for this train of thought!! The thought of him in his cute little bike shorts, well, gosh, the weather's got hot here again all of a sudden!!<P>Of course, the lady supervisors will be sitting watching, drinking lemonade and generally making sure the job gets done.........<P>I do have to make one thing quite clear. Perving, peeking, checking out, glancing shyly, and fraternisation WILL be tolerated.........!!!!!!!!!!!<P>What a job. I could almost start this company today!!!!<P>Is NM New Mexico? I still have to think about all your state abbreviations. Where do you think you'll move to?<BR>Brisbane is quite nice this time of year!!!!!! Sometimes I think I'm the only person in Australia going through this... It's good to have BrambleRose on here now, although I wouldn't wish this on her.<P>anyway, lets talk more about this company. We must do it right. IE, we must have a proper job description, and what would the job ad read??????<P>I'll ponder.<P>have a great night<P>Jo<P>
Uh oh,<P>Now I've gone & done it...<P>Every time I ride my bike I'm going to be self conscious
All these women peeking at my bum. Cheeky devils
<P>Actually, I've discovered all of my shorts are now too big, so I'm going to have to go out & get some smaller ones. Nothing worse than cycling shorts that aren't tight enough ...
<P>Anyhow I just finished an hour on the trainer & didn't get a single whistle. I guess I'll have to spend more time out of the saddle, hammering the big gears
<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Where to go with this? Hmmmmmmm.<P>Jo, I used to write job descriptions as part of my job duties. I'll help you. For our first step, I guess we need to establish who the subject matter expert will be. Who can tell us exactly what will be involved in this job? We'll need to do a task/function analysis.<P>There was someone here in Nashville who opened a topless cleaning service - or who was trying to. I'm sure this could be a highly successful. You'd have to have bonded people. <P>Handsome Nick, you need new biking shorts? I'll be glad to help you shop for them. Got a couple of bike shops just down the street from my office.
Nick...<P>There's a dressing room here at my house...I can help you check to see if those new shorts fit...umm...well.
<P>Now, for the job description:<P>Wanted. Honey-do man. Capable of sweeping a woman off her feet as well as removing old leaves from the gutter. Must have pleasing pecs, a smile to die for and a willingness to do whatever your boss asks for...ahem...oh my...it's getting a little stuffy in here. Have to finish this later - think I'll go cruise Home Depot for some potential employees...

What are you guys doing?? Trying to turn my mega-thread into something trashy and sleazy??
OK!!
<P>Nick,<P>Gotta love a man in bike shorts! <P>Mitzi
<B>OK, this has gone far enough!!!</B><P>If you ladies can't behave yourselves, I'm just going to have ride my trainer in my sweats. Jeez, can't a guy try and improve his anaerobic threshold without being turned into some kind of sex object?<P>He can't? Oh well then, I'll just have to learn to live with it I guess
Besides, those sweats are just too darned hot!<P>But please try and restrain yourselves. Remember the last time we had too much fun. We don't want Mitzi's mega thread to get locked before it chokes the server

I love this thread because it makes me laugh. You guys are so great!! I was feeling very angry today at my STBX and what he is doing to our family so I came here and was able to laugh.... Thanks!!!!<P>I need new bike shorts as well. I've noticed a couple of small holes in mine and I would hate to expose myself to the entire spin class
. <P>Nick....Be careful reaching for that water bottle that you don't get a cramp in your hamstring
OK, now you guys are really causing me to lose concentration. There's no way I can maintain a 90rpm spin with you all looking at/patting my bum. I haven't fallen off the rollers in a while, but I'm starting to lose my balance...
<P>How about instead of standing around watching me, we all go out for a ride? I could use some practice with my paceline technique. Nick & his all girl peleton?<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
WOW!!<P>I love it that the MEGA-THREAD has made a come-back!! I get so excited when I see that more people have posted!!<P>Riding a bike?? Sorry, sounds like exercise to me! I'll go along if you guys promise to go slow!
<P>Mitzi
Geez Nick, now you're going to start a catfight over who gets to ride...how shall I say this delicately...directly behind you for the best view....<P>Meow...meow...meow!
<P>Lisa<P>PS - I just aired up my tires and put the sunscreen on...
Count me in. A good long ride sounds great. Mitzi maybe you could drive the support van, ya know to carry the beer and stuff for when we are done?
I haven't really read much of this thread, althought what I have read is pretty funny....at least what I can make of it. It's pretty cryptic in spots.<P>I just wanted to jump on the bandwagon and make MB Forum history by being part of what MUST be the longest thread...<P>Aloha,<BR>Mrs.O<BR>
Cool,<P>Mitzi can drive the sag wagon. There's lots of nice flat country just south of me. I'm thinking I nice little 20 miler with a picnic about halfway.<P>We can practice drafting & sprinting & after the ride practice post ride massages
<P>I'll bet I end up with the cutest group ride in Chesapeake
<P><P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
As long as it isn't windy....I hate riding in the wind. Here in AZ we are spoiled by the gentle breezes.<P>Got my yellow SIDIs all polished up lets go!!!!
Wow, yellow Sidi's? me too, Bet mine are bigger though
<P>I'm hoping for little wind this weekend, but I check the weather channel before I ride so I can start off into the wind & hopefully finish with a tail wind...<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Oh, I'm jealous. No long rides for me with the kids. Maybe when we get a custody agreement figured out. <P>Right now my riding is done in the gym or out with the kids. We live close to open desert and go out adventure riding a bit. Problem is my little boy has no faith in my navigational skills and is afraid I will get us lost!!
<BR>
Hopeless<P>I take my son with me on my weekends. We usually head down to the beach for lunch so he can play in the sand & I can people (ok, girl) watch. It's not the best training in the world, but when we race, I practice alternanting mashing a big gear with spinning a small one. I'm learning all kinds of tips on sneaking little bits of training here and there
And I have to admit, my favorite rides are always with him.<P>When he was little he rode on a trail-a-bike. That was some serious hauling!<P>Well, I haven't heard back from any of the girls, so I guess I'll go out this afternoon by myself
<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Nick,<P>20 miles on a bike?? Ok, I'll just drive along beside you all and shout words of encouragement! How's that sound??
And I'll haul the food for the picnic!
<P>Hey! Post 2250! I should get ANOTHER prize!<P>Mitzi
I hate to tell you this Mitzi, but 20 miles is a tune-up. Next month I'm doing 150 in a weekend and in June I do my first cenury (100 miles) of the season
<P>But the cycling team will definitely need a support van to haul the picnic & collect dropouts. I wonder if we can get a hot tub on a trailer for a post ride soak?<P><P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Ok, I'll be in charge of getting the hot tub too! Now I'm starting to feel important!
<P>How 'bout "after-ride" massages??<P>Mitzi
They tell me I have good hands. Do a decent job with a back rub. Think I could get a job in the support team. After all, I do have a bike but it has only two gears - go and stop - and it needs new tires since it hasn't been ridden in 25 years. I don't think I'd be an asset to the racing team. Unless they need a good woman with good hands. But I only want to deal with the nice guys.
Say this is starting to turn into quite a team. Now if I could just find a way to hire you all for the 150 next month. I'd be the envy of all the other riders
<P>I can picture it now, matching jerseys, my team mates and I in a fast paceline, Mitzi & Cinderella in the sag van with the mobile hot tub, post tide festivities & massages. This is getting better & better!<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again<p>[This message has been edited by c00ker (edited April 20, 2001).]
Nick, Mitzi, Cinderella,<P>Sounds better all the time! Picnics, massages, hot tubs OH MY.<P>I went on a bike tour through CA wine country once. Was really fun. Riding from winery to winery. Good food, Good wine, Good fun.<P>
Nick, can we do that race from winery to winery? Good food, good wine, good looking gluets on those bikes. Sounds like Mitzi and I need to be there to provide support for the team. Who's sponsoring us?
OK, 20mph headwinds, snakes crossing the road, no gloves or water bottle, but it wasn't too bad. I <B>DID</B>, however, notice a lack of support from my team. Were you all just hanging back there admiring my new Pearl Izumis?
So do they make my butt look big?
<P>Cinderella, Virginia doesn't have too many wineries, we might have to take the tour out west for that one. How about Ireland? New Zealand? Heck if there's any fat tire cyclists, we could go to WV & do the Greenbrier trail. If I ever get my legs back we could always do Skyline Drive.<P>OK so much for an easy day. Tomorrow is a 40 miler. I sure hope the wind stays down. Do I have to lead all day again? My legs are awfully sore
<P>You guys have a super weekend!!!
<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again<p>[This message has been edited by c00ker (edited April 20, 2001).]
Sorry Nick the wind was just too much for me. Besides I got distracted by the Izumis.
<P>Fat tire cyclist, yes. Ireland, yes. New Zealand, YES. Canadian Rockies, YES. So much to do so little time to do it!! <P>Big is a relative term. Would you rather have a small flabby butt or a larger firm one?
Did I just say that?
Actually, I have what could only be termed a "micro" butt, small & tight. Actually it could probably stand to be a bit bigger, but I've never heard of exercises to increase fanny area
<P>Cool, I need some more fat tire partners too. Do I take this to mean you ride both fat AND skinny? Ireland is a ways off for me, but I am going to make it someday. My next big cycling adventure is going to be the Greenbrier in WV with my son, unless I win the lottery, meet a rich divorcee with a bicycle fetish,or get an outrageous job offer from VBT
<P>It's 6am here & I'm pumping up my tires and trying to get ready to go out & punish myself some more. I know the view back there is enticing, but someone has to lead some & let me look at something nice too
<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Right now I only have fat tires but would like to get skinny soon as I am would like give duathalons a try. Can't swim efficiently enough to do tri's.<P>Firm is good. Like I said size is not the only factor.
<P>If you'd like to do some fat tire cycling I'll lead
. Lots of good trails around here. <P>Divorcee (soon), bike fetish (well I don't allow it to sleep in my bed), rich (sorry)
. Oh well, two out of three ain't bad. Now where did I put that lotto ticket?<P>Hope you had a good ride, no flats, no road rashes and no head winds. As for me, my day is booked up with soccer games and dance rehersals. <P>Have a nice one.<P>
Hey Nick!<P>The Greenbrier Trail?? I've been to Southern WV and I know that has to be there. Everything down there is "Greenbrier Something"! LOL That's only about 3 hours from here!
<P>Hope everyone has a good weekend!<P>Mitzi
Wow,<BR>What a great ride! About 40 miles of lightly travelled twisty roads in southern Chesapeake. And lots of single girls!
<P>Quite a bit of wind however, so I came home with quads made of jelly
<P>She doesn't have to have too much of a bike fetish. I don't sleep with mine, but I don't leave them in the garage either. Doesn't have to be wealthy either, just enough for some serious playtime! Airfare to New Zeland is a bit steep
<P>Mitzi, the Greenbrier river trail starts in Cass and follows the Greenbrier river (of course) all the way down to Louisburg. It's a rails-to-trails conversion and is a blast! We're going to stay in B&B's along the way. Then off to Hico to go white water rafting on the New river.<P>OK, tomorrow is only going to be 20. Any takers?
<P>Hope everyone is having a nice weekend!<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Nick,<P>I've been to Cass and Lewisburg several times. Had actually considered moving to Lewisburg. It's such a beautiful old town. And quiet too!
Never thought of riding a bike there though! LOL LOL<P>Gee, do I sound a bit lazy??
<P>Mitzi
Glad to hear the Scenery was so nice on your ride!
<P>My morning was good as well. My S scored his first goal today!!!!! I was so proud!!
<P>Bet the exchange rate in NZ is pretty good though!<P>
Hmmm, I hadn't thought of the excange rate angle. I know it's good in Canada. Maybe a trip to Banff.... Or Utah, I've always wanted to ride the Moab. If I sold the house & Skootz & all my other toys, I could probably survive as a bike wrench out west for a few years....<P>Damn, I hate being an adult
<P>Oh well, it's late and I have to get out again tomorrow. I sure hope the wind decides to take the day off
<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Well, if you want to go to New Zealand, tell your sponsor that you have to take the woman with the good hands.
Of all the countries I've visited, it's heads the list of most picturesque and is close to the top of the ones I'd love to visit long-term.<P>Besides, I can be your interpreter. Kiwis are harder to understand than Aussies. <P>And your jelly-like thighs might need some one to knead them.
<P>Best wine I ever had was some Montana Marlborough Cabernet Sauvignon from there. Had it in Christchurch.<P>Did you know we have several wineries here in Middle Tennessee?
Hint - you could bring that tour here.
Geez, now everyone's making moves on my yardboy...Nick, I thought I had you lined up exclusively...bicycle built for two, I get the back seat (for the view) and you do all the peddling up the hills...
<P>I just got back in from a co-ed volleyball tournament (tall men with egos)...all I can say is my competitive nature wouldn't let me play "girl" - I gave as good as I got - and I will be paying for it tomorrow...bruised forearms and all...I sure could use a shoulder rub (hint hint)
<P>Lisa
It sent it twice...didn't know I felt so strongly
.<p>[This message has been edited by soon2b_alone (edited April 23, 2001).]
Nick - you know you could ride your bike from town to town doing shirtless yardwork for single women and spread a lot of happiness across this nation?
Hey Nick,<P>I ride both fat tire and skinny, although I haven't been on either of mine in years. I came across a Bianchi road bike and then a Bianchi mountain bike that I couldn't pass up when I was in college. I put many miles on both riding around Lawrence years ago. Especially the trails along the river, those were a blast. The weather is getting a bit nicer around here, so I may have to tune them up and put them (and myself) to work. So tell me, how far should I be riding each day to get my sorry butt into shape? I need to exercise and always liked biking. Any thoughts?<P>When I was in Colorado last summer, we took full suspension mountain bikes down the blue/black ski runs at Winterpark. They sold us lift tickets and up the mountain we went, bikes in hand
(well, they were strapped to the lift, but you understand...) I actually did better on the bike in the summer than I did on the snowboard during the winter. Oh how I miss Colorado.<P>So when are you going to be in KC anyway? I still owe you a beer! <p>[This message has been edited by Jayhawk 93 (edited April 23, 2001).]
Okay, another fat tire rider. If we get many more I think we could organize a trip!!! <P>Jayhawk...I went to graduate school in Manhatten KS. Was in Larwence once. Thought it was a nice place. <P><BR>
Uh oh, I think I'm in trouble...<P>Lisa,<BR>I'd love to try a tandem. There's a tandem club out here and it looks like a fun way to tour. And I'd love to organize a bikt trip somewhere. Canada would be a blast! I'll have to do a lot yardwork....
I'm thinking about joining a volleyball league out here. Sounds like a great place to meet aggressive girls. I think bruises & scars are sexy
<P>Cinderella,<BR>Hmmm a yard work tour? I'd rack up some major mileage on my way, not sure if I'd be in any condition for strenuous labor after pedalling across the country
Sounds like a great way to work on my tan, though....<P>Jay,<BR>Long time no hear. I'd start out riding 3 or 4 days a week in about the 5-10 mile range and work up no more than 10% each week. Weight training helps to, especially squats. Start off with less mileage than you think you can handle and build up a base. It looks like I'm going to fly into Springfield vice K.C. since I'm going to be tight for time, but I'll let you know if that changes.<P>Well, I put in 70 this weekend, so I think I'm just going to tool around the neighborhood tonight. Anybody up for a dozen easy miles & steaks afterwards?<P>Take care & ride hard
Did I really say that?<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Nick...tandem...yeah...that's a good word for it.
<P>A ride and then steaks? T-bones...with a little vino?<P>I'm soooooo there.<P> Oops...did I say that outloud?<P>Lisa
Well, actually, I marinated some NY strips & I'm going to break my no alcohol during the week rule and have a couple of glasses of a nice merlot I found, belive it or not, from Chile
<P>Well, I'm off to tour the neighborhood & blow on down to the park. No hills, but my Mt. Bike has been ignored all weekend so I'll take him out to play for awhile
The it's steaks, wine & hot tub. (after laundry & dishes. Can we talk trade, shirtless yard work for topless housework
)I think my saddle is getting harder

Either the saddle's getting harder or my butt's getting softer
<P>Actually I fell pretty hard playing lazer tag at my son's birthday party and have a bruised glute. Never, EVER wear a white shirt to play lazer tag under black lights with a dozen homicidal 10 year olds

Studly Bike Man, tool on over here and do some shirtless yard work and I'll treat you to steaks, a beer, and some lazer tag. Love to play.<P>Last time I played I came in 7th out of 31 and, because I had a respiratory problem at the time, I'd had to hide for a couple of minutes. I think I could have broken the top 4 or 5 otherwise. Dawnetta, Zippy, Gina, and Tom might want to play. In fact, I'm holding 6 passes as we speak.
Never played but it sounds fun.<P>Need to get my day started. Hey Nick next time you stop by so early could you put the coffee on for me?
Hey Jane-Elise,<P>It would have been nice for you guys to tell me not to wear washed out jeans!!!! Cripes, I lite up like a Christmas tree under the black lights. <P>AND, what is up with getting a "toy" gun? I thought it was going to be a .45 with 13 in the mag and one in the pipe. I also never got credit for throwing kids off the balcony. I'm still ticked!!!<P>What kind of sissy game is that? Guess I'm too close to Philly.
<P>Still the Village Idiot
Thank God I watched Saving Private Ryan...belly crawl people! Sneak up on the little @#%#$% 10 year olds...then, Whamo, one laser blast right on the sensor! And Medic, you're only supposed to pitch the mouthy teenagers over the balconey...we like the 10 year olds
.<P>uh oh...my clip seems to be jammed...somebody cover me!<BR>(preferably male, 6 feet tall or so, single, yada yada yada...
)<P>Lisa
Well, next time I play I'm wearing a black t-shirt.
<P>I figure it's going to take me all summer to get to everybodys house for yardwork. Guess I'd better sell the house & go on the road as a travelling landscape artist. I wonder how difficult it would be to pull one of those landscaping trailers on my bike
Yikes!<P>I'll definitely put the coffee on in the morning. I've got to get one of those pots with the timers (well, I USED to have one, but...). Cream & sugar? Now I need to find a cupholder for my shower, or figure out a way to hook up a coffee IV in there
<P>OK, tonight's another low impact cruise around the neighborhood, then tomorrow I'm riding laps at the oceanfront. Anyone wanna tag along? <P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again

Well, it's cold & wet here, so the cycling is going to be on the trainer, and then maybe the hot tub

Well it is very warm and sunny here, think just a dip in the pool will do. Maybe a ride later when it starts to cool down.<P>Actually I won't get into the pool for another month at least. It is only about 70F. Kids don't mind but it is too cold for Mom!! Needs to be 85 for me.

Wait a second. I'm not 21 any more.
I don't know that I want to dance around in my swimsuit.
But dance, are we gonna dance.
I personally prefer a moderately crowded dance floor sometimes. It's easier to dance as if no one is looking.
Other times, I like it fairly empty so that I have all the room I want.
But no dancing in my swimsuit.
Cinderella - that's what those swimsuit cover ups are for...the over 21 swimsuit dancers! (And here you thought they were just for protection from the sun/sand).<P>Personally, I'll just opt for throwing on some shorts over my suit and start the conga line...

...and your royal highness, Cinderella, you are excused from the swimsuit dance competion if you so desire...does this mean you're out of the wet t-shirt contest too?
<P>Geez...I'm getting a little crazy with all this spring sunshine...I better log off now before I get arrested.
<P>Lisa (aka Soon2b)<P>------------------<BR>I am woman...hear me roar...okay - meow...okay - purr? Hey, I'm working on it.
Wet t-shirts? Dancing in bikinis? hmmm This party is starting to sound interesting. Dare I say.....<P><BR>........TWISTER????<P>Uh oh. there I've gone & done it....<P>Bad Nick. Bad. Evil, wicked, naughty, Nick.....
<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Naked Twister with oil?
That is what we had played earlier, isn't it?<P>But I'm confused.
Wet t-shirt contest, dancing in swimsuits, naked Twister. These are conflicting events. At least to my brain.<P>
Conflict has such a negative connotation. It's merely a scheduling challenge. And I want to point out that I just suggested the game, not the rule modifications.
<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
TGIF everybody!!!
<P>Things were getting a little slow. OMO and I had to keep badgering the DJ to keep going.<P>Now that Nick has that twister game started he seems all enthused again!
<P>
Hey, be careful with the oil. If you spill any on the mat, someone could.......<P>dang! I slipped
Wow, what a pile up!<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
12 noon - swimsuit dancing!<P>1 pm - don a t-shirt because, my, that sun is bright
...ooops did I accidentally spill that whole pitcher of water on my shirt...
<P>2 pm - shirt's ruined...might as well lose it...It's time for Twister! Left foot goes on Red!<P>I see NO Challenge to this schedule - just some naughty, evil, wicked (Nick Baaaaddddd) fun!<P>But...what comes after Twister...my itinerary just lists "other" ---- now what could that mean?
<P>Lisa (aka Soon2b)<P><P>------------------<BR>I am woman...hear me roar...okay - meow...okay - purr? Hey, I'm working on it.
Okay - I keep trying to post to this thread - with hot tubs, dancing, and Naked Twister - who could resist?<P>BUT this darn &^$&^#%# thing keeps stalling out...Have we hit the limit????

This is the first time in three days I've been able to get onto this thread!<P>We're baaack!
When it gets locked up someone has to post something...
Well, "other" could always mean body shots...<P>(did I really say that?)<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Body Shots!!! OOOH BAD Nick. <P>I must say I'd like to try those.
<P>I was out of the party loop by the time these became the thing to do. In my day we just did the upsidedown margarita shot!
<P>
Body Shots???
...DJ Man...we need some jazz...pronto!<P>Lisa<P>(Yes Nick, you did...I heard it.)
I see my thread was locked up a little!<P>Hopefully it's ok now!<P>BODY SHOTS??? What??? <P>Mitzi
Sorry, I got carried away by the resurrection of the dead thread.
<P>I think body shots are illegal in Virginia Beach, so they must be a lot of fun
Probably less notorious in more accomodating venues. Daytona Beach, Key West, Vegas, Etc...<P>Now after body shots....<P>Back in the hot tub, of course...<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again

OH MY!!! Body Shots!
<BR>I've been away for a few days, it's going to take me a while to catch up, but that caught my eye.
<P>I'll try to catch up tonight when I get home from work....<P>Oh, can someone pick me up at the Baltimore Airport??? <P>Smooches,<BR>Busty the Body Shot Gal!
Oh Lisa,<P>Jazz, what the hell is that? I subscribe to Dee Snyders theory. "If it ain't metal, it's crap"!<P>And on a totally unrelated topic. <B>Gardening with Medic...</B> First you get the pot and then... oh wait, first you get the plant and put it in the pot, um yeah... that's it.<P>Recreational drugs for all. I have Glaucoma. Can you tell I'm in a wierd mood tonight? I thought so.<P>Zippy
Medic, medic, medic...<P>There are just some forms of musical rhythm that lend themselves to...uh...other activities...uh...that require rhythm...

Well the mega thread was about ready to fall off the bottom of the page so I thought I would bring it back up.<P>Besides my quads and hams are sore and I need a massage.....any strong hands out there? <P>
Last week I saved the neck of a preacher. This week I saved the neck of a bunch of agriculturists (farmers). <P>Spent three days fixing and running PowerPoint presentations for the Tennessee FFA convention - used to be the Future Farmers of America. I have to admit that the presentations looked better after I tweeked them than when I arrived. And they'd had months to get this together but there was much procrastination. <P>Got asked to go back next year. And got asked to design and assemble the presentations for next year.<P>And get paid more.<P>YEA!!!!<P>BTW - How do you do that bold thing?<P>And what are body shots?
my hands are pretty strong LOL<P>------------------<BR>Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want.
my hands are pretty strong LOL<P>------------------<BR>Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want.
Body shots are just like head shots, you just aim lower
<P>Sorry, I couldn't help myself...<P>Hmmmmm sore quads & hams, sounds like somebody got in some miles
It's 79 here and my bike is calling my name.... I must be having vision problems. I just can't see hanging around the office on a day like this.......<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Some miles yes, and toady a very intense Sports Conditioning class. Now you can add glutes to that list!
<P>I'm on a very good endorphine rush right now. Gotta love it. Go out and enjoy Nick!!!<P>Hey BioMan over here!!
glutes??? now that will cost extra LOL

Hey Cinderella!<P>Here's how you <B>BOLD</B><P><B> BOLD </B> but with no spaces between the brackets and the words! I'm so excited to finally learn how to do it!
<P>It's the little things that mean the most! LOL LOL<P>Mitzi
Hi, <B>Cinderella -</B> What Mitzi meant was to bold something do like this:<P>{b}This is what I want to show as bold{/b}<P>Just change the curly braces {} to square brackets [], and you have it!! If you want to italicize, use the letter "i" rather than "b". Mitzi demonstrated a complex move on the GQII board, italicized bold!!! You can do that like this:<P>{i}{b}Show as bold and italic{/b}{/i}<BR>Again replace the curlies with squares and, voila!!<P>Have fun...<P>--DeWayne--
Ok, so I messed up!! LOL LOL LOL<P>I guess I'm not a good one to be teaching how to <B>BOLD</B> LOL LOL LOL<P>Thanks for the help DeWayne!
<P>I have to admit though, that I didn't figure out the italicized bold myself. Bill (WilliamJ) taught me! <P>Mitzi
I was wondering how you did that as well. Thanks!
Wait a minute! I forgot something!!<P><B>OMG!! DeWayne posted on the "Mega Thread!!!</B><P>It's been almost a year and you posted! <B>YIPPEE!!</B><P>(Am I getting a little carried away with the <B><I>BOLDING??</B></I>)<P>Mitzi

I'll need to marry a Poet.<P>Maybe then she can help me straighten out my Longfellow!

Yes, dear William, <B><I>THE QUEEN!!</B></I><P>Why? Do you think Jayhawk and I are wrong??
<P>Mitzi
<B>QUEEN:</B><P>My intent was not smut. I was simply referring to the very well known poet, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. And since my poetic skills do need some "tweaking" I thought the comment was perfectly innocent. I can't help it if your mind automatically turns to smut!!!<P>Besides, we already had one sex thread that Cinderella so generously started, and it was shut down.

Wow this is fun and rebellious. I just found this thread. Would it count as more of a ball of yarn than a thread? <P>Weather was PERFECT here in Atlanta today.

Thanks for the welcome. I am going to attempt my first bold:<P><B>MEGA-THREAD</B><P>How'd I do?<P>How do you put emoticons within a note?

Well, I thought I was borrowing a line from Bonnie Raitt but it was actually penned by a Nashville songwriter - isn't that weird - by the name of John Hiatt.<P>Yes, WIFTTy, there was heat generated.
But we exercised all kinds of resolve.
Didn't do anything I couldn't tell my mother.
Hey all,<P>The mega-thread was dangerously close to slipping off the front page...and we can't let THAT happen, now can we?<P>I'm rockin' to a little Phil Collins and feeling a little feisty...my son just told me to "turn that @#$ stereo down" again...
<P>later gators,<P>Lisa<P>------------------<BR>I am woman...hear me roar...okay - meow...okay - purr? Hey, I'm working on it.
Lisa! Did you know you are ok?<P>Sunday was Mother's Day and my children did not want to go play laser tag with me despite the fact I begged. Actually, my daughter was agreeable. My son wasn't but he is only 8 and I could understand that this might be a little above his comfort level. <P>Anyway, I put on my Bonnie Raitt cd, turned it up, and danced. My daughter caught me. Sat down to watch this spectacle. Announced I was crazy and then went to play with her toy horses. I grabbed her the next time she came into the room and lead her around a while. She then retreated saying that she was glad none of her friends could see me. <P>Too bad I can't find the time or the energy to do that every night. I bet I could lose a few pounds.<BR>
Hi Everyone!!! Just have a minute and wanted to pop in and say HI! My computer at home is on the blink (again), so I have to steal a little time here at work. I'm hoping that I can get my laptop docking thing set up this week and get back in touch with the world again!<P>Oh Princess...<BR>You generated some HEAT??? Exercized Control??? What's that??? LOL
<BR>There are still a few WONDERFUL guys out there.... I'm impressed with the flowers thing!! Does he have a single brother about 35 or so????
<P>Smooches,<BR>Busty
Yup! Heat!! Thought his thermostat was going to malfunction.
<P>He does have two brothers. Might be about the right ages. One is married. Don't know about the others. You'd be in for a long-distance relationship though.
You know, your daughter needs her friends to see you like that so your daughter finds out that you really are one of the coolest, funnest moms around!<P>Once they find out that there are fun loving, playful parents, maybe they will have more respect for us fun loving people. The fun life loving ones are always the coolest!<P>

Last year I thought I'd have a heart attack when I heard my d's girl scout troop singing (and saw them dancing) to, I guess it's the BackStreet Boys) song about "I don't want to be another victim of your sexuality." <P>Heard an old song given a new treatment the other day - from our 'favorite' movie "My Best Friend's Wedding". It was the song about 'wear your hair just for him....You won't get him hoping and praying, wishing and dreaming....So if you're thinking how great true love is...." You know the one. But the singer sang most of it in this tiny, breathy voice. And every now and then her voice would just swell and it was lovely - at least I thought it was.<P>Josie and the Pussycats, huh? And I could rule? Add this to the fact I can do hair wraps. I want one of my own, BTW, Metallic colors,on the underside - near an ear. What do you think?<BR>

Bummer!!!! <P>I must be here all alone. And did you know that I have an MB birthday coming up two weeks from today.<P>
Your most royal of princesses...<P>You are <B>NEVER</B> alone when you have the Mega-thread connection!<P>An MB birthday...how excellent...another excuse for a party! How would you like to celebrate?<P>Lisa<P>------------------<BR>I am woman...hear me roar...okay - meow...okay - purr? Hey, I'm working on it.
Plan a party, huh?<P>Hot tub party? Twister? Sangria? Live and in person?
Home alone, again!

Well, Cinderella,<P>There was some discussion on a different thread about a west-side reunion...perhaps the mega-thread birthday could be celebrated then? Vegas just seems so appropriate somehow...a little over the top, flashy, out of control...yep, Vegas seems to work

Maybe sometime in the fall...anybody?<P>Cinderella...as far as vacations go...Vegas is about as cheap as they come as long as you don't gamble...save your pennies, keep your fingers crossed, and shout out for the fairy godmother...it might work out for you to come!<P>Lisa<P>------------------<BR>I am woman...hear me roar...okay - meow...okay - purr?

Hope you don't mind me budding in, but since you added this Vegas thing.............<P>Do we have to wait until Fall?
<P>I could be of some help in planning, as I do know my way around that town! <P>
I guess you won't be a member of the "mile high" club, huh Mitzi?
Is anybody really a member of the mile high club or is it one of those myth things you hear about?<P>I mean those bathrooms are so tiny and when you think about the logistics....but as they say where there is a will there is a way.
<P>Okay, now I'm even planning on how exactly this could happen! Has to be a 747 on an overseas flight, at night when most everyone is sleeping, slip into the bathroom and viola! Well at least I got us into the bathroom.
<P>
The restrooms are bigger in first class. That might help.<BR>However, this doesn't mean they're large.<BR>
Princess!!! <P>I'm shocked
<P>....and a little intrigued
Trans-oceanic flight, lots of blankets, subtlety and discretion.

Nick,<P>I always thought that your way would be much better anyway!<P>Not that I turn into a Nympho everytime I get on a plane but on those long flights you have a lot of free time!
Okay,<P>I turn my back for one little minute and a perfectly reasonable discussion about going to Las Vegas turns into how to qualify for your Mile High Club ID card...(is that photo ID by the way?)
<P>Hmmmm....well, I've only flown first class once so I'm not too sure about those restrooms (though the reclining seats are quite comfy), and the only time I flew over the ocean I was sitting dead center of the middle 7 seat section of coach...definitely not a romantic place to be
<P>Very interesting to imagine the possibilites, however...
<P>Lisa<P>------------------<BR>I am woman...hear me roar...okay - meow...okay - purr? Hey, I'm working on it.
Prior planning and access to the airline seat chart always helps. It would certainly make the flights to Honolulu more enjoyable

What about a sleeper car on a train going through the Rockies? Technically a mile high. Does it have to be a mile MSL or AGL?<P>And Mitzi, the reason we're talking about it is 'cause we're frustrated too

Bill,<P>Yes, you may be the Court Jester! Now, aren't jesters supposed to entertain the royal family??
<P>You want US to give you topics of conversation?? I think you'll find that everyone else has a gutter-brain too! LOL<P>Mitzi
The topics shall be:<P>1. Tan Lines: Sexy or not
<P>2. Shaving (Both sexes)
<P>3. Wildest places to "do IT"
Sometimes even princesses stoop to gutter-thinking though they try hard to avoid it. <P>Yawn.<P>Long afternoon.
Hey Bill,<P>The only problem is...we gotta watch what we say on this thread. Another thread was locked cause we just got too out of control!
Can't let that happen to the <B>MEGA-THREAD</B>! We got a birthday party to have in <B>6 DAYS!</B><P>I say we try to get this thread to 3000 by then! Who's with me???
<P>Mitzi
OK the jester is toning it down.<P>New topics:<P>1. Blenders - who uses them?<P>2. Razors - electric or blade?<P>3. The works of Bach (discuss)
Ok, we can start there! LOL<P>Blenders-Yep! Use 'em to mix up some margaritas! Just ask Dawnetta! LOL <P>Razors-Either one is fine! Just don't want any of those unsightly bumps on the 'ol bikini line!
<P>Classical Music-Have heard a lot of it but don't listen to it regularly. Personally I like Pachelbel (sp. is probably WAY off! LOL) <P>Now...who's ready for summer??? BBQ's, beaches, watching Sheryl sit in the kiddie pool with her Corona while we lounge in the hot tub!!
<P>Hey! Where's Dawnetta been?? We need some more of her killer margaritas!<P>Mitzi
Oh, dearhearts, I am here, watching from the kiddie pool
<P>Know what? I can't easily get Corona like I could in the States -- in Canada you have to go to a Beer Store to get beer, but because it's imported you have to go to the LCBO (If I remember correctly, that stands for Liquor C-something Board of Ontario) and there, and ONLY there, you can get Corona. So, guess what I've had to do? Drink Canadian Beer!!!
But guess what? It's as strong as Corona and tastes pretty darned good!!
<P>So, Sheryl is in the kiddie pool, acting as Chaperone (hense the name "Chap") and drinking Molson (or is it Molsen?). <P>Be good children!!!!!!!
<P>Love and Hugs to all
Let's see.<P>Blenders - I spent six weeks on a blended diet one time. I could smooth out most things except rice and corn. Had to get them thin enough to go through a seive because I could only consume what could go between my teeth. And the doctor had told me this was not the time to lose weight so I ate well. Lobster, cream, fresh strawberries, good stuff.<P>Razers - I'm still trying to figure out why we women got talked into shaving our legs with anything that is capable of ripping off chunks of skin. But electric ones don't do as good a job. Folks, this is just not a good deal any way you cut it.<P>Tans - those sun rays are bad for your skin. they give you wrinkles. And I'm not sure chemical tans aren't just as toxic. The whole tanning thing is no good either. I shall remain a pale and proud Princess.<P>Have I succeeded in discussing all three topics?
Bach, Oh that was the "B" topic, not blenders.<P>Yeah, he's pretty good. Really like "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring." Pachelbel's canon is wonderful. Also love "Fur Elise" but I forget the composer. I liked it before I discovered I shared a name with it. <P>We have a tragedy brewing. I won't be here on June 6 for the party.
Of course the pale and proud Princess has done a smashing good job in her discussion.<P>Blender: only used for Malts and Shakes. No margaritta's just beer or should I say BEER. I was an official member of the U.S. Beer Drinking Team. I skipped the last olympics and opted to turn pro.<P>Razers: Hate em! When I'm out to impress I use the blade but most of the time just an electric. Except the mustache, girls won't let me shave that cause it tickles them.<P>Tan Lines: There are good places to have them and there are bad places. Us men have the whitest butts anywhere. You ladies, let me just say that if your into to that tanning bed thingy, having everything the same color is dull and it makes things look smaller.<P>Music: Love it all Classical, Rock, COUNTRY (on hold while I go through the "D")<P>The Jester will think long and hard tonight to find topics worthy of your grace. <P>With that I must bow out for the evening.<P>Good night, good night parting with such sweat sorrow to which I say good night til it be morrow.<P>Jester Bill
Dreaded double post... so instead I will answer Bill's questions:<P>The topics shall be:<P>1. Tan Lines: Sexy or not <P>SEXY<P>2. Shaving (Both sexes) <P>PERSONALLY NOT INTO IT AND NEITHER IS FIANCE, BUT WOULDN'T MIND DOING IT EITHER WAY IF HE ASKED<P>3. Wildest places to "do IT" <P>ANYPLACE PUBLIC WITHOUT REALLY BEING SEEN BUT SORTA KINDA "ARE THEY DOING WHAT I THINK THEY ARE?" - NO CHILDREN PRESENT, OF COURSE<BR><p>[This message has been edited by Nyneve (edited May 31, 2001).]

Tan Lines are a good thing. So I would vote sexy.<P>Blenders used for smoothies and salad dressing mostly. But I do whip up the occasional frosty adult beverage.<P>Shaving. The new Venus is great!

The Jester has to really work today at work. What do these people want from me blood? So he will only be checking in sporadically.<P>Friday’s Discussion Topics:<P>1. Dream Mate: describe in detail and I mean detail
<P>2. Worst 1st date: again in detail<P>3. Plans for the weekend<P>Jester Bill<BR>
1. Dream Mate: describe in detail and I mean detail <BR>I’m not looking for Cindy Crawford or anything. I prefer that she walk upright, have most of her teeth, and doesn’t drool (that much).
OK now half seriously, she must be physically attractive (i.e. Barbie figure or somewhere in-between Barbie and Roseanne Arnold), but more importantly she must be intellectually attractive. This time I want someone with maturity and life experience. She must have the ability to show and receive love, I have lived without that for so many years.<P>2. Worst 1st date: again in detail <BR>I didn’t date a lot so my experiences are not too plentiful. The first date with my wife was a double date and it was pretty uncomfortable. I was really eyeing the other guys date and as a matter of fact after that first date I started dating her, my wife’s best friend. It was a full year before my wife and I went out on a second date.<P>3. Plans for the weekend<BR>I have my three girls for the weekend so life is good. We haven’t made any firm plans but I think we’ll hang out at the mall, go to some parks, play in some water, eat real home cookin, and mainly just enjoy each other.<BR>
Dream Mate - reasonably attractive, loves and adores me and my children, good father, successful in career (this can mean any number of things), a man of impecable character, one who loves God, filled with joie de vivre, has diversified interests, polysyllabic, intelligent, likes monogamous sex.<P>Worst First Date - had a date when I was 17 that was so boring (he started the evening by telling me that he didn't like my clothes) that, a few weeks later, I turned him down by telling him on a Thursday that I couldn't go out on Saturday because I thought I was going to be sick over the weekend - and I did end up having strep throat.<P>Plans for the weekend - Have the children tonight. D has softball game tomorrow morning. They go to their dad's the Saturday afternoon and are back before church on Sunday. Hang out Sunday afternoon. That's it. No tv tonight because they were after each other in the car this morning.<BR>This means no movie. I imagine we'll clean house a bit. Maybe we'll actually play some games. That would be different.
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by cinderella:<BR><B>Maybe we'll actually play some games.

Last weekend we took our game on the road and even got grandma to play. <P>
1. Dream Mate: describe in detail and I mean detail
<P>Day at the beach, warm sun, oil, near-naked (or actual naked, like a nudist beach), blanket or two (one for over us, one for under us) and a somewhat, though not overly so, full beach. Grapes, wine, cheese... <P>2. Worst 1st date: again in detail<P>Since I dated in the 70's and they all included disco music, you could say they were all bad... but, the worst one was with this meat cutter who had a finger missing. He was a nice guy, kinda sorta, but a bit weird... we went to see "Grease" and it, and he, was soooooooooo boring. And contrary to my usual dates in the 70's, I didn't sleep with him. (I could now go into a total diatribe about why I slept with men then ~ sexual abuse, physical abuse, hated myself, blah, blah, blah).<P>3. Plans for the weekend<P>Have the fiance's kids this weekend, so we will be visiting family, going to a faire, trying to keep things light and fun for them... yep, he's a weekend dad, and I am an almost-stepmom, but not at all evil. <P>edit: hee hee, I thought number one said Dream "DATE" not Dream Mate!!
I'm leaving it though...<P><p>[This message has been edited by Nyneve (edited June 01, 2001).]
As the hour draws near for me to humbily retire for the weekend, I wish to take this opportunity to wish you all the best for the weekend. Thank you all so much for allowing this lowly Jester to vast in your presence.<P>Everyone have a good weekend and be safe.<P>------------------<BR>Love, Bill<P>-There are none so blind as those who refuse to see!-<BR>-Stand up and do the right thing, even if your standing alone.-
Hmmm. I am going to jump in...just lurking before. What the h*ll.<P>1. Dream mate: charming, intelligent, very funny--maybe a little irreverent, devoted, hopelessly in love with me (hehe), values committment, open-minded, moderate to high experimental sex drive, creative, good communicator, honest, likes animals, likes my cooking, old-fashioned romantic. I usually like very tall, dark men with very deep voices--testosterone factories I guess. You would never know it by looking at my ex's 6'0, 150#, blonde thick glasses-wearing self. <P><BR>2. Worst date: A friend set me up with his brother. He took me to dinner, was rude to the waitress, had no personality, and then forgot to leave a tip. As we left, and I was horrified, I reached blindly into my purse and grabbed a bill from my wallet. I threw it on the table without looking. Later, during a movie, he holds out his hand, snaps his fingers, and wiggles them as if to say "Hey, gimme your hand." I excused myself to the restroom and discovered that I had actually thrown a $20 bill on the table in the restaurant instead of the $5 that I thought I had!<P>3. As for plans for the weekend? My lips are sealed.<BR>
double post...oops<p>[This message has been edited by gsd (edited June 01, 2001).]
GSD,<P>I want detail MONDAY
<P>Have a good one!!!!!
1. Dream Mate: I like 'em tall! I would like someone who understood and got along with my Myers-Briggs personality type of INFP. I would like someone who wanted to pursue improving and developing a stronger marriage--who knew about and believed in MB principles or at least something like them. I'd also like someone a little silly-romantic like I am and with some spirituality. <P>I have a mate who works very, very hard for his family. He's responsible, affectionate, a good father who cares about the kids, very smart, funny, and super sexy! YUM!<P>2. Worst Date: Well, being the fun-loving gregarious type that I am, I went out on a lot of dates but never thought of them as "dates"--I just met people around in life, talked to them, and we ended up going out to coffee somewhere. Generally speaking, I ended up at least liking most of the people I talked to (what can I say?). BUT I did have one nightmare date from hell when I was about 22yo. I put a personal ad in the newspaper and I got a bunch of replies. Well, I called the first guy back and talked a little and set a date for a restaurant literally just down the road from my apartment. At the appointed date and time, I arrived at the restaurant to find my "date"--a man about 45yo, with a cowboy hat and no teeth! Now, don't get me wrong, I can dig a cowboy hat, outdoorsy look on a hunky guy, but he was more than twice my age--sadly out of shape--and dental hygeniene was not a word in his dictionary. <P>I was polite and talked to him as we ate dinner, but I wanted nothing more than to finish eating, shake hands, and go home. OH NO! As we said goodbye, he tried to kiss me really badly and REALLY ackwardly!! Finally, I just grabbed his hand, shook it, and said, "It was nice to meet you. Goodbye" and RAN to my car with the heebee-geebeeies. YUCK! <P>3. Plans for the weekend: I'm going to be a steward in a two local dog shows--one on Saturday and one on Sunday. After each dog show, I shall probably treat myself to dinner out-to-eat and maybe go see Moulin Rouge. It looks HOT!<P>CJ<P>------------------<BR>Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.
CJ-<P>What is it that you do at dog shows?
CJ - I assume they are conformation shows rather than obedience.
It appears that the Jester arrived just in time to save the post from slipping to page two.<P>Hope all had a good weekend.
Jester!!!<P>I am here. Make me laugh!
Our Princess wishes to laugh.<P>OK, Here goes.<P>I did my check book this weekend. That doesn't make you laugh? You should have seen the balance HAHAHAHA. There was so much red on the monitor, not to mention all of the ( - ) signs.<P>That's ok, I have til Thursday to come up with some $'s. I'm taking my girls to Regional Baton competition in Colorado.<P>The Jester is having to force a smile today.
OK, <P>1. Dream mate: Cute, funny, adventureous, commited, spontaneous, playful and with a sense of whimsy about the world in general. Medium to high sex drive and a sense of curiosity about same.
Partner for life. Loves to travel. Hopefully a morning person at least <I>SOME</I> of the time
<P>2. Worst date: I've never had a bad date, & hopefully have bever "been" one. But, as it looks like dating is on the horizon for me, there could always be a first...
<P>3. Weekend: Yard work, house work, rode my bike at the beach until the rear shock punted on me
Chinese take out & movies. Just me & the ROUS.<P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again<p>[This message has been edited by c00ker (edited June 04, 2001).]

Good gracious! Who ever thought that my dog show activities would create such a stir? Why, it's all the buzz (heehee).<P>I show dogs in confirmation, obedience and field trials (yay!), and I am teaching kids to do Novice showing for confirmation. My personal favorites are the Novice Juniors, because they're so cute to watch, and because they all pick different dogs and it's fun to see whose dog matches them. <P>OKAY?? It's just a hobby--it's just for fun. Relax everyone. I just love and enjoy dogs!! Okay--I enjoy cats and snakes and iguanas and lizards and horses too, so I guess I'm Dr. Doolittle!
<P><BR>CJ <P>------------------<BR>Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.
As official chaperone, I feel that I **NEED** to know the special surprise ~ you understand, don't you Mitzi??? It's imparitive that you tell me, for security's sake!! This is OFFICIAL!!!<P>The Chaperone, alias Sheryl, alias too much Corona, alias ME
<p>[This message has been edited by Nyneve (edited June 04, 2001).]
Chaperone Fairy Godmother!<P>If I tell you, then the secret will have been leaked to all of MB land and I can't have that happening. We wouldn't want to scare off our guest now, would we??
<P>Mitz
Mitzi,<P>As the Jester, I wish to prepare entertainment for our guest, but how shall I know what type to prepare. I surely wouldn't want to offend the "suprise guest" of the Queen.<P>
There she goes again.....maybe it's best we change the name of our Honorable Queen Mitzi, to Mitzi the Tease!?!<P>C'mon Mitzi, what's the big surprise?<P>
I am so excited. I just knew that the big day was June 6 but it isn't!!!!
<P>It is tomorrow!!!!
<P>So I ca come.
<P>What shall I bring?
OK Mitzi...<P>Fess up!!!<BR>
<BR><P>------------------<BR>nick<P>it's only time that heals the pain <BR>and makes the sun come out again
Hey Shawn! Queen Tease?? Kinda suits me!
<P>I can't tell you guys the surprise! Then it wouldn't be a surprise!
<P>Jester, if you wish to prepare entertainment, just tell lots of blonde jokes! My guests loves them!
<P>Mitzi
<B>HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR MEGA-THREAD!!</B><P>One year ago today, the mega-thread was started. We didn't expect it to go on this long but we're so glad it did!!<P>Let the partying begin!!!!!
<P>Mitzi
<BR>
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<P>Per Mitzi's request let the blonde jokes begin<P>Q: How do you get a blonde to marry you?<BR>A: Tell her she's pregnant.<P>Q: What will she ask you?<BR>A: "Is it mine?"<P>Jester Bill<BR>
<B><I>HAPPY BIRTHDAY</I></B><P>I hope the mega-thread lasts for many and many more posts.<P>I have my own theory on who the guest will be. But I could be wrong so I won't say but if I am right, I will do the happy dance.
Happy anniversary!<BR>Happy anniversary!<BR>Happy anniversary!<BR>HAAAAAAAAAAAAPPY Anniversary!<P>A noted psychiatrist was a guest at a blonde gathering, and his hostess naturally broached the subject in which the doctor was most at ease. "Would you mind telling me, Doctor," she asked, "how you detect a mental deficiency in somebody who appears completely normal?" <BR>"Nothing is easier," he replied. "You ask a simple question which anyone should answer with no trouble. If he hesitates, that puts you on the track." <P>"What sort of question?" <P>"Well, you might ask him, 'Captain Cook made three trips around the world and died during one of them. Which one?' <P>The blonde thought a moment, then said with a nervous laugh, "You wouldn't happen to have another example would you? I must confess I don't know much about history." <P>
<P>------------------<BR>Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.
Okay... I had to come out of hiding for this:<P><B>HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEGA THREAD</B><P>And since it is rude to not show up with a present (and I didn't think that my presence was enough of a present)<P>A car was driving down the street when all of a sudden it started swerving. The car was going back and forth till someone with a cell phone called the police. A police officer pulled the car over. A blonde rolls down the window and says, " Officer, I'm so glad you are here. I saw a tree in the road, then I saw another. So I had to swerve to keep from hitting it!" The officer looks at her, then says, "Ma'am, that's your air freshener."<P>Sorry.... don't know any other blonde jokes that wouldn't get this tread locked... and I don't want to be part of the cause of another one.... especially one as great as this one.<P>~Java<BR>
Darn it... I hate it when that happens... <p>[This message has been edited by JavaAllNightLong (edited June 05, 2001).]
In honor of the occaision, I bring a gift. And a most delicious gift it is!!<P><B>Sangria</B><P>1 sm can frozen lemonade thawed<BR>2 1/2 C dry red wine, I use cheap Burgundy<BR>1 1/2 C orange juice<BR>1/2 C sugar<BR>sliced lemons & oranges if available<BR> - Mix together & chill a couple of hours<BR> * optional or added @ serving time, 1 C ginger ale<P>Good stuff!<P>MITZI - when does our special guest arrive?<P><BR>
So not to leave anyone out, the Jester submits the following BLONDE/BRUNETTE/RED Head Funnies<P>Q: What's the mating call of the blonde?<BR>A: "I'm *sooo* drunk!"<P>Q: What is the mating call of the ugly blonde?<BR>A: (Screaming) "I said: I'm drunk!"<P>Q: What's the mating call of the brunette?<BR>A1: "All the blondes have gone home!"<BR>A2: Has that blonde gone yet?<BR>A3: When is that blond b*#ch going to leave!?<P>Q: What's the mating call of the redhead?<BR>A: "Next!"<BR>

Hey Bill!!<P>How's it going?? <P>Now, if Dawnetta would show up, we could get down to some serious stalking!
<P>Shirtless men doing yardwork! Whew! <P>Mitzi
Hey Mitz,<P> Did I tell ya all about my trip to the doc for my physical?<BR> No? Well,pull up a milkin'stool,and have a listen.I'll try not to get too graphic,..wouldn't want to turn this into a sex-thread,and get this sucker shut down!
<P> So,I goes to the doc to get all checked out,you see.He runs all his tests,and says everything looks great.BTW,he say even though I'm 47,I have the body of a 37 yr-old,the stamina of a 27 yr-old,and the mentality of a 17 yr-old(hey,nobody's perfect).<BR> Then,he asks about my emotional health,so I tell him if I ever get in another serious relationship,I'm not sure if I would be able to,er,"respond"(delicate wording)with another woman that I really cared about.<BR>So,he tells me what I need is a compassionate,understanding woman who would be willing to help me with my,er,"problem"(more delicate wording),and then he gives me a wink!
<P> So,I says to him,I says,"Hey,thanks Doc,I think I understand just what you're talking about",and I give HIM a little wink.
<P> "So",I says,"what time does your wife get home?"<P> Well,the next thing I know,I'm being escorted outta the medical building by these two big burly security guards(hey,what'd I say?).I don't know,but I could swear these were the same two guys who escorted me outta Victoria's Secret when I went shopping to buy you that little"thingie"for your Birthday gift! Remember?<BR>Oh,that's right,...I wasn't going to mention that.Sorry!
<P> So,...NOW I gotta find me a new doc!<P>And that's all I gotta say about THAT!!!<P><BR>~~Murph
Murph,<P>(Oops! Almost typed Murp! LOL LOL)<P>You really gotta learn to behave yourself! Next thing ya know, you won't be allowed at Costco to buy ice cream! Speaking of ice cream...whatcha got in the freezer?? I sure could go for some SC's! It's a shame you don't know what they are!

Oops!!<P>Mitz
<p>[This message has been edited by Mitzi (edited June 05, 2001).]
Hey Mitz,<P> I DID get into trouble at Costco!
<P> I was buying some ice cream,..ya know,the big 5-gallon bucket? So,there I was,minding my own business,when I accidently brushed the bucket against the leg of a woman wearing shorts.Oops! Boy,I'm tellin'ya,did she let out a holler! Gee,and here I thought women like that,"ice cube sliding down the thigh"thing.I'll never understand! <P> Oh,I have lots of ice cream in the old freezer.No SC's,though.
<P> BTW,it's too late,..people are already talking!
<BR> What's with the double-post? You tipping a few?!<P> Hi Bill,old buddy,..how's it going? Yeah,a whole year!<P><BR>~~Murph
Hey Murph!<P>Women do like the ice cube sliding down the thigh trick. BUT we like the ice cube sliding UP the thigh even better!
But it's just not the same effect when it's a bucket of ice cream while you're standing in Costco!
<P>Ok, so I double posted! I....I just wanted to...um....oh yeah..I just wanted to make sure I got Post # 2600!!!! I won another prize that I won't get!
<P>Mitz
<BR><B>Happy Birthday Mega Thread</B><P>How does a blonde turn on the light first thing in the morning?<P>She opens the car door.<P>Happy Birthday.!!!!!
Hey Mitz,<P> Ok,..sliding UP the thigh(taking notes).Got it!
<P> Oh,so you"snuck one in",just to get #2600? Sneaky!<BR> You wanna prize?<BR> <BR> Ok,I'll give you a toast.<P> "Here's wishing Mitzi a long and happy life!"
<BR> Send this to 10 people and you'll live even longer!<BR> Send this to 20 people and you'll be even happier!<P> Will THAT do?<P> BTW,what's with all the Blond jokes? Are YOU behind THAT?<P>~~Murph
Hey Yard God!<P>I remember our prizes being better than that! Ya know, PHOTOS!!
<P>Oh and Me? Behind the blonde jokes?? How could you possibly think that?!
<P>Ok, someone asked what type of entertainment we would need for the party and as a hint as to who the surprise guest was, I told him to tell blonde jokes!
<P>You gotta problem with that??
<P>Mitz
Hey Mitz,<P> PHOTOS? What on earth are you talking about?
<P> Oh,I don't mind the Blond jokes.<BR> Here's a few of my own:<P>Q.Why did God create Adam first?<BR>A.To give him a chance to say something!<P>Q.How fast can a woman talk?<BR>A.140 words per minute,with gusts up to 180!<P>Q.When's the only time a woman stops talking?<BR>A.When her mother starts!<P> Hey,instead of getting married again,I'm gonna find a woman I don't like and give her a house!
<P><BR>~~Murph
Hey Murph!<P>You don't think I should request photos as prizes?? Why not??<P>Ok, I'll have you know, I can talk a lot but I don't talk that fast! Us people with a southern accent CAN'T talk fast!! LOL LOL <P>And if you're giving away houses...make sure mine is big and comes with a cleaning lady! (Or a cleaning MAN!
)<P>Mitz
Hey Mitz!<P> Well,you could be sorely disappointed!
<P> I know,you folks down south got that thar drawl,which tends to slow things down a bit."Yaaaa'll coming to th'big paaaarty next yeaaaar?"LOL <BR> Unlike us city-slickers,who have to get our words out before our cell phones ring again,"Webetterhurryupandgetmovingorweregonnabelateforwork!"<P>Oh,I thought your house HAD a cleaning lady,.....YOU!!<P><BR>~~Murph
<P>
Murph!<P>Me?? Disappointed? Nope, haven't been yet!
<P>I had to fire my cleaning lady. She refused to do her job. Laundry wasn't getting done, floors needed swept, it was a MESS! LOL LOL<P>It's kinda fast paced here too. Kids off to school and to work by 9. Rush here and there for work (gotta take a client to the hospital tomorrow and go to 2 meetings! YUCK!!), baseball games, dinner, homework, baths...it's never ending!!!!! Whew! I got tired just typing that! LOL LOL<P>Mitz
Hey Mitz!<P> Whew!I got tired just reading about it.And here I was upset because I had to stop after work,and pick up a fresh bottle of chilled wine(oh,the single life!).<P> Well,gotta run.I hear Heather and Bambi calling for me from the hot tub. "Be right there,Ladies!"
<P> You know how those women get when you keep them waiting!!!<P> Have a good night!<BR> <BR> I'll be lurking!
<P><BR>~~Murph
<P> <P>
Hey Murph!<P>Have fun in the hot tub!
<P>Now, I'm off to bed! The alarm goes off too damn early in the morning!
<P>Thanks for stopping by! We've missed you here!!<P>Mitz
Hmmmm!! Where in the hell did all of the partiers go???

Just trying to recover from the bash, Mitzi!<P>Hey Murph, glad to see ya back! You should drop by more often as your humor can bring a smile to even the most depressed soul here in the kingdom. <P>Don't be a stranger
Drat! Did I miss the party completely???
<P>I tried to sign in from home, but my computer is on the blink again.... I hate that thing some times.
<P>Well, anyhoo.... I'm here now... anyone still got a little party left in them? <P>Mitz, Let's get stalking! I've got the camera all ready...<P>Hey MURPH!!! Long time no see! I might be out your way again later this summer...

Well, I missed the party too. Hey, Dawnetta, I finally figure out how to get AIM working. Now, do I need another invitation to the pictures? Or, where do I find them?<P>I suggest that we let the party continue.
Oops! It was sliding away! Had to rescue it from the bottom of the page! Someone come and help!!
Okay, here I am.<P>I am getting S room ready to paint. Just finished the wallpaper stripping. I'm doing the Ralph Lauren Denim thing on the walls.<P>Later.....<P>

<P>Jester Bill
The mega-thread is approaching the 3,000 mark. I remember back when we were trying to hit 1,000 and I believe I was the one with the honor of posting # 1,000<P>Anyway, "FYI"- I was curious as to when this thread began, so I checked and Mitzi started the ball rolling back on<BR>June 5, 2000 @ 8:57am........ "you've come a long way baby".<P>[censored] from Texas<P>
Well, Jester!! I am here. Make me LAUGH!!
<P>Do your best.
In light of our PrinASSes request the Jester submits the following Marriage Sayings:<P>My wife and I were happy for twenty years. Then we met.<BR> -Rodney Dangerfield <P>A good wife always forgives her husband when she's wrong.<BR> -Milton Berle <P>When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her. <P>Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with friends. You order what you want, then when you see what the other fellow has, you wish you had ordered that. <P>Man is incomplete until he is married. Then he is finished. <P>A man placed an ad in the classifieds: Wife wanted.<BR>The next day he received a hundred letters. <BR>They all said the same thing: You can have mine. <P>I married Miss Right. I just didn't know her first name was Always.<BR> <BR>Losing a wife can be very hard. In my case, it was almost impossible. <P>How do most men define marriage? An expensive way to get your laundry done for free.<P>
I know why some men get married. To have someone shop for them.
Cinderella,<P>I finished the painting job. It wasn't too hard. I think it looks pretty good! Not bad for my first painting project. <P>Now all I have to do is put up the border and throw up a few posters and I'll be done.<P><p>[This message has been edited by HopelessinAZ (edited June 13, 2001).]
From the bottom of page 1 - I raise the proudly to the top again saving THE MEGA THREAD from slipping into page 2 land.
Hey, Bill. Have you recovered from all those twirling girls.
Am still in recovery from the twirling weekend. We had a great time.<P>Girls did wonderful 5 - 1st's/13 - 2nd thru 4th's/1 - 8th.<P>Plus being one of the only "soon to be" single fathers at one of those events has it's perks.
<B>Bill!!!</B>
Bill, is having A LOT of fun right now. No not that. But I'm getting to know someone, MYSELF, and I'm having a pretty dam good time.<P>
I still love the Augustinian quote, "To have peace, you have to know yourself and to know yourself, you have to be alone." It was oh-so-true for me.
Yeah, being alone is ok. I'm learning a lot about me (I'm a really cool person!
) <P>Saved from page 2!!!!!!!<P>Mitzi
Just visiting here...but I couldn't believe this was on page 2!<P><I>friendly bump</I>
Cool people of the boards, UNITE!!<P>I scored points with my children the other night. I let s spend the night with my mother and I took d and 2 of her friends to the park to see the movie "Big". They loved it. All three of them. They had all the kool-aid and popcorn they wanted. Threw a blanket on the ground and let the girls lounge all over it. It was fun.<P>Couldn't have done that if I still had that man.
Well, I leave for vacation on Friday.
And I can not tell you how excited I am!!

You know, WilliamJ, you could have waited just a FEW more days and brought this back up on the one year anniversary of the last post ... some people just have no patience!
LOL just kidding ... had to look and see "who done it" ... take care!
What a blast from the past!!!!!
WilliamJ, friend, how are you? What's the latest? How's your daughter?
I can't believe this thing is back! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> It makes me proud! LOL
I have thought about bringing it back up so many times, but wasn't sure people would even be interested! LOL
Bill, thank you, thank you, thank you! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> It's been a while...Where have you been hiding? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
Mitzi <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
Back in the day I'd post something on this thread and wait 5 minutes for it to post!!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
Remember that? It was so BIG and so BUSY!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />

I was looking for some old jokes from last fall but I could not find an old joke thread. Therefore, I bumped this up.
Hey Mitzi, i almost called you on a road trip back from one of the major cities in the nice southern states <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
Instead of going down 81S to 40W, I went up through Kentucky and over through the W Va mountains. . . and i slept for an hour some where in the mountains. . .
geez, small towns, do you guys get your mail by hrse back still, or has you r post office upgraded to covered wagons for packages?
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />
wiftty
Holy Poop on a stick!!!
I can't believe that this thread has been reserected. Way to go Jane-Elise!!!
God, just reading this brings back fond memories of the good ol days, even with Wiffty, and once again I AM A MEDIC NOT AN EMT!!!
If it ain't Metal, it's crap!
Un-friggin-believable! ..... Is Murphy here too?
WHO DID THIS??? Who bumped this thread?
C'mon, someone fess up. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />
Yoooooo Hooooooooooooooo
Ohhhhhhhhh wiftty ..... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />
Jane-Elise
I am going to kill you. I have been reading every page for the last hour and expect to keep going for another two. How do you sleep at night doing this? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> When is the next reunion at Nville?
Dude, everyone, and I do mean everyone baled on me when I planned the last one.
Y'all just tell me when you want to come and I'll arrange it. Maybe the hot tub at the hotel will be ready this winter. That was a great hot tub.
I think I scared someone to death one night. We had agreed to meet there and I was the first one there. So, I got in and was floating on my back in the middle of the hottub when the next person came in. I think it was Wiftty. He didn't know what to make of a woman floating in the hot tub.
Wiffty,
Ya shoulda called!! I'm not hard to find here. And yes, all the towns are small!! I'm in the eastern panhandle, close to Maryland. (Actually, Maryland is just across the potomac river).
Oh and we get our mail delivered by some man in a car! LOL LOL
Tim,
How ya doin'? Yeah, this place has a lot of fun memories, doesn't it? Ones I'll never forget! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
Jo,
Murph doesn't come to MB anymore, at least I don't think so. He's doing good though, just heard from him last week.
Jane-Elise,
I'm sure ANY man would be happy to find a woman floating in the middle of a hot tub! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />
Mitzi <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
Hey Mitzi,
Just looking at the title makes me smirk. Are you guys coming up or what? The kitchen is almost finished. It almost looks likes a home.
Tim,
We would love to come up sometime, just not sure when we'll be able to.
Sounds like Gina has been keeping you busy! LOL
Tim, So, when is the big day?
Mitzi, got a current e-mail on Murphy? We could invite him back for a guest appearance.
Jane-Elise,
I sent him an email earlier telling him that this thread has been resurrected. Haven't heard anything back from him yet. I'll tell him you're expecting him! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
Mitzi <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
wow...it is late and the melitonin has not kicked in yet...
i'm great, i hope you all are too <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
Hey everyone,
BILL IS HERE! LOL LOL
Hi Bill!
Glad you're doing good.
Isn't it great to check in here and see this thread again??
Mitzi <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
William J - this kiss is for you. KISS!
Next time I plan a bash, maybe you can come and bring a picture of your angel.
This is like "old home week". I'm glad I stumbled across this thread.
Anyone who wishes can come join the kingdom on my "Kingdom of Caerlon" thread. I am not ashamed to be self-promoting.
Hey Cinderella, my grandmother will be living in Nashville next month. I will be visiting her regularly so me and you will be getting some lunch. Deal?
Bill, Big deal! Shall we shake on it.
Hey, has anyone heard from Nick/Cooker?
Sorry to have done this - in a way. But I wanted to see how many posts the Mega-Thread has.
Well since all the oldies are coming out of the woodwork, I guess I may as well say hello!!!!!!!!!
Hang in!!
Bob

Hi, friend. I saw you on EN and was surprised. You and Mel ok? What's up?
Hey Bob!
Wow! It's been a long time since I've seen you here! How've you been?
Mitzi <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
You're lurking, too. Oh my goodness. You remember the kingdom where you are the queen? Well, it's still up and running and is longer than this thread - but this would be the coolest one yet. Even if the other one is my kingdom. this one has the biggest variety of posters.
However, anyone who wishes to have a part in the kingdom may come on over!!! Anytime!!!!
Things are going pretty well with Mel and I, we've been struggling to find time together. Both of our kids always seem to have something going on and our x's aren't always the most cooperative.
I filed for an increase in child support in early spring based on fact x is and has been working full time since mid 99 and I was receiving CS based on her part-time wages in 98.
Any since her subsequent divorce from the om, she has been spending more time with the kids over the past year. So she got lawyer to have the child support increase over turned.
I went to my lawyer and he looked at our wages and asked if kids were with the x 50% of the time and I said, on paper yes. He said that's all that matters and since I make more money than she does, I may have to pay her CS. I couldn't believe it. I was pissed, but was really stuck.
My lawyer said make an offer and see if she excepts, so I said I would accept a 50% reduction in CS from the original amount which matches what I pay for their medical insurance. She also agreed to split other bills 50-50.
The only problem was that her lawyer never did anything and mine started too late and we ended up in court last week. We waited about an hour for the judge and when we went in my lawyer said we have an agreement, and the judge said, well sign out and get out of here!
So now I suppose I'll have to pay some court costs as well as my attorney.
My kids are doing pretty well. My d, a high school sophmore was nominated to the homecoming court this year. She didn't make it. She is currently trying out for basketball, but says she may not bother as the coach said they will ahve 4 hr practices and she is concerned about her grades. She is a staright A student.
My son had an interesting year, he broke his arm right before school started playing football. HE really did well with it though. They didn't cast iit, it was in a sling and swath for about a month. The Dr said he could take it off after that. HE just made the 7th grade basketball team and has his first game tonite after school. HE isn't a starter and isn't too happy about it.
Other than that!
Hope all is well with you guys!
Hi Bob,
You life with your kids sounds almost as hectic as mine! LOL
Things are great here. My new hubby and I get along great, and for the most part, so do his kids and mine.
My oldest son is adjusting better to having a step-dad. His fooball season just ended with his team winning their Superbowl. He was nominated for the Lineman of the Year award. Didn't win it but was excited to just be honored.
My middle son played football also. His team didn't make it to their Superbowl but he was asked to be a manager for his older brothers team.
My youngest son played football and was the 2nd Superbowl Champ in the family. Talk about a proud mom! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
The only thing that could be improved would be the older 2's grades. But we're working on that. They know if they don't keep their grades up, they can't play sports.
My ex does nothing with them anymore. And only pays his child support when he feels like it. I don't let it bother me too much since he still is an addict and alcoholic. Plus he married the woman who was the OW. They make a great couple! LOL
But basically, life is good!
Mitzi <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
Glad to hear both of you are doing well. Nice trip down memory lane.
Hey Mitzi,
got your email the other day, your boys have got soooooo BIG.
thought I would come here and ask for advice on what I told you about the other day, so just to keep everyone on the same page I'll give the short story here real quick...
XH is married to the OW now, and I pretty much ignore him except when he wants to "play dad" and come see the kids every 6 or 8 months. but thats not it, I have been dating a man in the army for 3 years(yes mitzi I know...when will I ever learn). and he spends every minute with me when he was not in korea or now he is in baghdad, we talk every week and write all the time. well here is where the trouble is...I wanted to find out more about a fire fight he had said he was in and so I did a search for news on him on the internet using his comapny as the key word. and low and behold what does the internet pull up but a page about his wife and 2 little girls missing him very much and hope he returns home soon(one of which is 3) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" /> he seen what my X's cheating did to me and knows how I feel about females who go out with married men, and I had no idea...he never once said anything to me about a wife girlfriend or kids, the only thing we talked aboutin reguards to kids was that he wanted to have alot and if I couldnt after dealing with recent health issues we would adopt. he has went so far as telling my son that when he gets back form baghdad we would be able to be together for good, and its going to be very hard on my son cause he thinks more of this man than he does his own father (which breaks my heart).he has lied to me my family and all my friends. now...what should I do..I have a letter I wrote telling him I know and shame on him and all that jazz,and have the print out of the photo of him with his family to add to it and telling him never to contact me again. but should I send it OR wait till he calls so I can confront him almost in person and tell him what I think of him and what he has done to me by making me the OW that I hate so much??? I have even went so far as to think about sending him a box of exlax laced cookies..but reveange is not really my cup of tea...so how do ya'll think I should handle it.
ok so it wasnt that short but ya'll get the jist of it.
I will come check in on ya in a day or so mitzi..take care honey..luvs ya.

Hey Lesa,
Glad you stopped by here.
I think you ought to start a new thread about your situation. I don't think this thread gets looked at a whole lot anymore. Maybe someone else will be able to give you more advice to think about.
Personally, I think you should tell him on the phone and send the no contact letter. It really is a shame that he's done this. Not much of a man in my book. Let me know what you decide!!
Love ya,
Mitzi <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
hey girl...still havent made up my mind yet, and I normaly get a call monday nights before I leave for class, I dont think I'll pick up this week though I have a major test and I relly dont need that crap running around in my head, you know what is really sad about all of this is, I know how to expect to feel and how to deal with it. I know for one that even if he was not married and if it was him not bein honest about having kids i still would want nothing to do with him. he lied to me, and like I have told him one lie would end it for good and I would never speek to him again, with the x it wasnt so firm when I said that, it was well maybe he lied to me because...no no more of that he lied plain and simple, no matter what it was about it wouldnt matter, you know what I'm sayin here?
well I have to go study now that I have my paper done..talk to ya later sweetie.
