:hug: I am so sorry to hear that Snowwhite. I lost a dear co-worker three years ago. She too was young, died suddenly and left behind three young girls. I can only begin to know some of the pain and shock and disbelief that you are going through right now. I will keep her friends and family in my thoughts.

Just Kidding! I'll have to owe ya!
I delivered my treats to those who answered my post one rainy day. I needed
their full name (so the front desk person wouldn't look at me funny) and their Resort check in date!

I wasn't playing favorites...OR (you would have gotten one for sure ;) )

It wasn't "all that" as far as lil gifts! TFY
Just some stale (formerly heavenly fresh and chewy!) nasty taffy!

[TwinkieMama]

Which is so ironic cause I am NOT IN. Nada. Nyet. No TU for me.... :sad:

Awwww. Don't feel bad Twinks! I'm not in yet either. And I had to come find this myself today! Now I am exhausted and my brain won't function!

It's 34 degrees out and just too frickin' (NOF) cold to think. :cold:

PM sent anyway.

[GADISNEYGIRL]

I had to send my boss out of the office for a meeting. I couldn't figure it out in the time she was on the phone. Now I'm dizzy. And have a head rush from all the upside-down looking. But. I am IN! (The things we do in the hopes of getting tagged! :rolleyes: )

[alabamaalan]

This post number is the same upside down and backwards btw :teeth:

[HMHunters]

This post number is the same upside down and backwards btw :teeth:

Extra credit! That should be at least a hooty!

[latoberg]

I have no clue if I am in or not. But I have given it my best geometry effort.

[TwinkieMama]

why is the server so slow all of the sudden?

[TwinkieMama]

is everyone waiting to swoop?

[UtahMama]

I know, it is slow. Which inhibits my swooping skills greatly!
That and the 40 second rule.

[UtahMama]

Get's in the way of my mighty wing span.

The one that overshoots the Woo Hoot by like 3-6 posts...

[TwinkieMama]

it is even possible to swoop at the speed of molasses?

I don't think so.....


but while we wait :cool1:

I FINALLY got the riddle!!!!!

hint hint: lowercase letters will confuzzle you

[HaleyB]

Hey, I actually think I am in.
Dyslexia finally pays off.
:rotfl2:

[UtahMama]

In the Rafters???

See, It's for SURE not me...So I'm wrapping up the W.H. as a gift!
I'll inch it foreward for the weiner!

[TwinkieMama]

Well, UtahMama it looks like it just us chickens
swooping in slow motion.....

[crcormier]

This space intentionally left blank.

[Grammyof2]

Trying for the swoop

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOTY

until the tag fairy comes along :rotfl2:

[UtahMama]

Darn I always Overshoot.... :rotfl2:

It's a new disorder....Overshooterdissyndrome


YAY GRAMMY!!!! Hope you're feeling better!!!!

[TwinkieMama]

ooohnooooooooooo!

a victim of the 40 second rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Way to Go Grammy! You woohooty prom queen you!

[HaleyB]

Geesh I am slow today, missed it by that much.

[latoberg]

Grammy you sick swooper you.

Whoooo Hoooooo Ty

[Mary Jo]

Woooooooo Hoooooooty +5

[UtahMama]

Are "EASY BUTTONS" allowed?

[Grammyof2]

Don't worry Haley, the numbers are magically delicious and change often :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

But I am always in the wings, hiding like a peeping Tomasina :lmao:

[HaleyB]

hint hint: lowercase letters will confuzzle you

Why?
Wait is this a trick?

Cause I thought of a word in about 3 seconds that is all lowercase.

[drebert]

Geesh I am slow today, missed it by that much.

Hey stop quoting my tag!!! :teeth:


Woohooty Grammy! Way to show em' how it's done!

[Chapter 11]

Why?
Wait is this a trick?

Cause I thought of a word in about 3 seconds that is all lowercase.

... and promptly mispelled it, I'm sure.

[TwinkieMama]

then ignore me haley
I am sure you are right
Fortunately for me depression will not set in due to my terrible performance on the riddle because we have concluded that the tag fairy is always right..
therefore I must be witty and talented ;)

[Grammyof2]

I thought of a one letter word, and got a TU on a technicality :teeth:

[HaleyB]

Hey stop quoting my tag!!! :teeth:


Woohooty Grammy! Way to show em' how it's done!

I am not quoting your tag, it is from the zen master, Maxwell Smart.

[drebert]

I am not quoting your tag, it is from the zen master, Maxwell Smart.

A small technicality! :teeth:

[UtahMama]

My answer was in CAPS and it was "correct" unless there's more than one answer????

I posted the answer for like 10 seconds before I frantically tried to DELETE but the more frantic I was the more I fumbled! I should not attempt the PM before caffeine! Luckily Grammy wasnt in the wings at that moment...WHEW!

[piglet too]

I came up with two answers, so there! :teeth:

Off to view a PM. :teeth:

I'm in. And Dre get back to work.

[celerystalker]

I'm in! PM sent! Yes! I tried to cheat and ask some real life folks if they knew, but I thought of it myself.

nekkid as a jaybird :blush: I woke up and looked but that post I put under my pillow did not warrent a visit from the tf. Or her/his cousin the tf (the less famous tooth fairy). Dang, I could use a quarter!

[celerystalker]

Hummer - NO! You're not imaginary. You just aren't here. I'll rephrase it. I asked some work friends. Better?

Snowhite - I'm very sorry for your loss.

Sheri - I think I like your cat. It's sassy. Mama like!

Haley - You seem confused this morning/afternoon. Are you feeling ok?

[UtahMama]

Oh NO!!! My skills were only for 1 day, I guess! Sorry! I was well over 1,000 posts when mine showed up but I think it has more to do with being at the right place at the right time and saying something very smooth...which all check out for you...Just be patient. Rome wasn't built in 1 day and stuff like that. :hourglass You'll have your glory day soon!

[TwinkieMama]

Hummer - NO! You're not imaginary. You just aren't here. I'll rephrase it. I asked some work friends. Better?

cause if so, I did NOT get my bon bon allowance this morning, please send ASAP (not the answer to the riddle by the way )

[HMHunters]

I DO bonbon all day. I've worked for maybe 30 minutes all morning. Too much DISing to do. And MNSSHP planning to do. With coworkers. Woo! Conferences are for sleeping off Mickey Hangovers, right? :thumbsup2

What? There's a bon bon allowance?

I ALWAYS say something snarky about eating bon bons when DH wonders what I "do" all day! Well...I watch kids...and here and there I "DIS" (more than here and there, I'm affraid) THEN, 20 minutes before he walks in the door, I tidy up and slap lip gloss on? WHAT?!

I had such a horrible day, the baby is teething, the dog had an accident and I think the washing machine is broken... but I am cooking you dinner baby because I love you so"... then he will take over and "fix" everything for you while you take a hot bath to freshen up....

There's a "give me your best housekeeping tips" on the community board. Maybe you need to post this over there!

[Grammyof2]

#1 housecleaning tip
Set out a bucket of Pine Sol. Fill the house with that smell. Hubby walks in, smells cleaning fluid, Walla wop, he thinks you cleaned all day. :banana: :banana:

works everytime

Back to your regularly scheduled riddle, where the real answer is not a one letter word, like I

[hiwaygal]

It was a game where you take the name of your first pet and then the name of the first street you lived on and thats how you come up with your stripper name :rolleyes:
:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
I swear I thought you got this tag the night you drank nyquil and tried to navigate the CB! :rotfl:


I came up with two answers, so there! :teeth:

Show off!


Oh...and my DH is now forever banned from the Riddle Thread...I don't want him getting any ideas about how to fake me out when it comes to housework! :rolleyes:

[UtahMama]

Housecleaning Tip #2:

Hire a Merry Maid (or a teen ager) DONT use Disney Vacation budget $$$.

DIS all day (minus 20-30 minutes before DH comes home, at which point, get dressed, brush teeth, wipe kids' faces)

[UtahMama]

150!!!! Yay!!! The Sesqui-centennial-HOOOTY!!!!!


:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

Geez! CONFETTI for 150????

[HaleyB]

What? There's a bon bon allowance?

I ALWAYS say something snarky about eating bon bons when DH wonders what I "do" all day! Well...I watch kids...and here and there I "DIS" (more than here and there, I'm affraid) THEN, 20 minutes before he walks in the door, I tidy up and slap lip gloss on? WHAT?!

Open a bottle of Pine Sol and leave it in the front hall for awhile. Smells like you were cleaning all day.

Also my favorite line is "The kids are alive, I did my job"

[HaleyB]

So in my younger days I wrote a letter to the SAT boards about a question I got wrong (math section) because I was not wrong, they were. They had to adjust everyones scores. This riddle reminds me of that for some reason.

Off to eat bon bon's and such.

[Grammyof2]

Haley - are we having a mind meld and you are spewing the info I had 5 minutes ago :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Since Grammy had already given my first tip I will share another.

Make a To Do list.
Fill it with things like,
Make Coffee
Put cereal in bowl
Put Milk on cereal
Eat cereal
Bring hamper to Laundry room
Put clothing in Washer
Add soap
Move laundry to dryer
Add dryer sheet
Remove dry clothing from dryer
Fold
Put away
and so on...

Then scratch them out real well so you can't really make out what was on the list. Leave your lengthy list somewhere very visible (like on Husbands dinner plate).

Also use acronyms for all your appointments, so your spa pedi and manicure would become: SPM 1pm.

PUT DOWN YOUR BON BON SISTER...

THAT's who I stole that quote from....

We've been watching the old school Bugs Bunny cartoons!

I wonder where I can get an Acme anvil?

Handy in many everyday situations!!!

[alabamaalan]

Not quite an handy as a portable hole, but still quite useful.

And yep, there's no school like an old school....


'Nite folks

[snowwite]

Thanks for all the kind words and hugs earlier. I had to go to work. I dont know anymore now than I did this morning. Makes me want to quit work and take the kids to Disney now,just in case! Ok that is probably extreme but it does make me want to stop and smell the roses and be better about attending church.
I have a lot of reading to do to catch up!

[Mary Jo]

I"ve done 20 reports and ummm... I still don't have yours mister! You are the one who needs to get to work! I also need some bulletin info. Chop!Chop! Get crackin' buddy!

:teeth:



So, Drebert is a she and Latoberg is a he? :blush:

[snowwite]

It was a game where you take the name of your first pet and then the name of the first street you lived on and thats how you come up with your stripper name :rolleyes:
That would make me Snuddly Perkins :lmao:

[horsegirl]

So, Drebert is a she and Latoberg is a he? :blush:


Yes, sort of technically, but they are interchangable....and I just call them the eggberts....it is sooooo much easier. :teeth:

Hi Mary Jo! :yay:

[snowwite]

I came up with two answers, so there! :teeth:
me too!

[pongoperdigirl]

Am I too late to be in?

[horsegirl]

Am I too late to be in?

I am certainly not a goddess, but I say no of course not! Pm Elaine judas! :thumbsup2

[Mary Jo]

That would make me Snuddly Perkins :lmao:


That makes me Mitzy Clark :goodvibes

[Grammyof2]

Thanks, Horsegirl (what the heck does interchangeable mean, though?)

Dre and Lacto are married. Drebert is the wife, Lacto is the husband.

TADA!!!!!

I guess I am in for the twohooty

[horsegirl]

Thanks, Horsegirl (what the heck does interchangeable mean, though?)
Hay Mitzy Clark! I have no idea what interchangeable really meant. It just sounded good. I see Grammy did a much better job defining that thing we know as Eggbert. I lost many brain cells at Disney last week. This is my excuse for at least the next year..... :teeth:

[firstmickey]

LOL! MJ...Im thinking your new riddle name is Mitzy! :teeth: :rotfl2:


do I dare say that my name would be Twinkles Freeport???? :teeth: :eek: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

[monymony3471]

That would make me Snuddly Perkins :lmao:

Helping you all along to your two hooty.

I'd be Boomer Tumey.

[Mary Jo]

These names are killing me :rotfl2:

So ccormier & tsamingo are preinterchangeable then, or seminterchangeable... :teeth:

[horsegirl]

Helping you all along to your two hooty.

I'd be Boomer Tumey.
Hay boomer. Start posting! I love to watch a mouseketeer turn into a vet! Do it here. Twinkles, Mitzy, Fizzie (myself) are here and Queenie and possibly pongo will give you a shout out!

[drebert]

Mary Jo,

I see the Berg/Berts have caused you some confusion. :teeth:
Don't feel bad, we ourselves stay confused. :rotfl2:
And, I see that once again Horsegirl was no help whatsoever. :sad2:
Grammy, thanks for helping us out. :thumbsup2

Yes, Latoberg and I are married. He is a United Methodist Pastor and I work in the office of the church where he is the minister. I am the "real" boss and frequently have to remind him of that! :lmao: He had reports due and was trying to tell MOI to get back to work! The nerve! :teeth:

Sorry for the confusion, but thanks for being interested enough to ask! :rolleyes1

[firstmickey]

These names are killing me :rotfl2:

So ccormier & tsamingo are preinterchangeable then, or seminterchangeable... :teeth:



Well, I would have said they had to wait till they were married....but since Tara is a dirty stopout.....then yes....I guess they are! ;) :rotfl2: :teeth: :banana:

[horsegirl]

These names are killing me :rotfl2:

So ccormier & tsamingo are preinterchangeable then, or seminterchangeable... :teeth:
I think they are!!!!!!!!!! preinterchangeable as fiances....or semi! Excellent interpretation and extrapolation Mitzy.

Hay Donna!!!!!!!!!! Missed you today! :wave:

[tmasingo]

So ccormier & tsamingo are preinterchangeable then, or seminterchangeable... :teeth:

:rotfl2: Something like that ;) :teeth:



I can't say what my name would be :blush:

[latoberg]

Hay Mitzy Clark! I have no idea what interchangeable really meant. It just sounded good. I see Grammy did a much better job defining that thing we know as Eggbert. I lost many brain cells at Disney last week. This is my excuse for at least the next year..... :teeth:
It was all those rounds on Everest.

[firstmickey]

Hay Donna!!!!!!!!!! Missed you today! :wave:


I felt like I was missing something all day. I even called Dyan at lunch to see if I was missing anything good! :blush: :teeth: :rotfl2:

[tmasingo]

Well, I would have said they had to wait till they were married....but since Tara is a dirty stopout.....then yes....I guess they are! ;) :rotfl2: :teeth: :banana:

Hey!!! :mad:








:rotfl: ;)

[horsegirl]

And, I see that once again Horsegirl was no help whatsoever. :sad2: :furious: :teeth:


I am the "real" boss and frequently have to remind him of that!
You honestly think you have to 'remind' him of this? :rolleyes:

Hay Egglette. :rotfl2:

[drebert]

:furious: :teeth:


You honestly think you have to 'remind' him of this? :rolleyes:

Hay Egglette. :rotfl2:

Well, he's a man. Of course he has to be reminded! :teeth:

[Grammyof2]

Stopping to help on the tri - hoooty

And to see that Tara is once again a dirty ditty or something like that :rotfl2:

[tmasingo]

We're only up to Tooty Hooty, Gram :rolleyes:


And.....what do you mean once again :confused3 :smooth:

[Grammyof2]

Come on people, don't stop now, we are almost there.................

And almost never works for me :teeth:

[tmasingo]

I didn't say it Donna says it. I don't even know what it means

:rotfl: And that is A-OK :thumbsup2

[firstmickey]

Gram......do you think you have it in you for another one?


you need rest....soup....tea...... :teeth:

[Grammyof2]

Well Tara, my first dog was named Butchy and we lived on Friend Street so that makes me butchey friend :confused3

[Grammyof2]

Come on peeps, this can't take all night. I need to take my Nyquil :teeth:

[lewdyan1]

I don't know the riddle but I was Folly SW 42 Street... :rotfl2:

[tmasingo]

Well Tara, my first dog was named Butchy and we lived on Friend Street so that makes me butchey friend :confused3

:rotfl2: I was actually thinking of it and I was wrong earlier when I figured it. I'd forgotten we had a dog when I was little....and that we lived in a different house until I was 5 :rolleyes:

So mine actually would be Nero Maple. Not nearly as embarassing as what I'd thought :rotfl:

[firstmickey]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH It's ME!!!





Tooooooooooooooooooooooooootttyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

So is anyone going tell me what a dirty stopout is, or should I just imagine the definition????????????????????

[latoberg]

Ah. No. I am going errand "shopping" tomorrow. Remember?
All day?

[Grammyof2]

Do I need to remind you two, just like the Silly's, that there is this thing called a livingroom, where you put a sofa, sit and talk to each other :lmao:

[drebert]

All day?

::yes:: :teeth:

[firstmickey]

So is anyone going tell me what a dirty stopout is, or should I just imagine the definition????????????????????



LOL! Well, back when we just learned that Tara and Craigy were a couple...(wasn't me that asked...just for the record...despite what Craigy thinks! :snooty: )........Tara made a comment on the Angel thread about packing her bag for NYE at his house.

and Cami with her wonderful Scottish wisdom and Tartan Talk......quoted it and posted...


ooooooooooooooo, Tara's a dirty stopout!!!!!!!


:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:
which caused us to immediately adopt that term. And torture Tara with it forever. (she's been a very good sport)! ;) :teeth: :rotfl2:

[drebert]

Do I need to remind you two, just like the Silly's, that there is this thing called a livingroom, where you put a sofa, sit and talk to each other :lmao:

This is much more fun! :teeth: Witnesses and all! :lmao:

Oh, and we are in the same room about oh... 4 feet apart or so! :lmao:

Which brings us to another bit of Riddle/Angel lore with one of my favorite Larsisms ever. One night Lars did the same thing as you just did but spelled it :flort: (Or maybe it was something close to that and I recapped it as :flort: for laughs? :confused: ) Whatever. Anyway..... if you ever see us post :flort: you now will know that is the official Lars version of :rotfl:

Dear Tag Fairy,

I think you should know that Mr Silly (who never comes to the riddle, btw) thinks he is immune to being tagged because he has a custom user title (which is "custom user title").

Bwaaahaaahaaa.

Mrs Silly.
