Very interesting Cass. Thanks for sharing.

DECISIONS, DECISIONS!!!

Steve, still going with the green now that you see it?

For what it's worth, I like the green. But it looks like you've already decided on black.

Fish extender question---Do y'all always get things placed in your fish extender? I made one for us last time and will probably use the same one this time around, but nothing was ever left in ours. All the DisTag gifts were in bags, left hanging on the fish. I don't know, I guess that means that if I forget it, it won't be a big deal. Ours is LSU themed, hanging in my boys' bedroom.

We have had things left in our extender Paige.

That's what I'm talking about! I'm still on the final pages from the last thread.

We'll I've finally caught up now.

 

[Scouter]

Holy cow, peeps!! It took me a while to catch up. I think I skipped a couple of pages.

Anyone heard about baby Madeline?

Chris, we are going to have to trade stories of our NY Italian families. My grandfather and great uncle were part of 'the family' for real.

Good books to read:

Secret life of Bees
Anything by Elizabeth Berg
Anything by Maeve Binchey (especially Tara Road)
Anything by Fannie FLagg who wrote Fried Green Tomatoes
A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson (hilarious)
Joy Luck Club
Memoirs of a Geisha
Before Women had Wings

Loved My Uncle Vinney and Marisa Tomei.

O.k. am I caught up?

Going to the farmer's market today and then to my parents house so my mom can start working on my formal night dress. THe last time I wore I Sean was 5 months old and I had a lot of baby fat

I'm with you on Joy Luck Club and Mermoirs of a Geisha. Two of my favorites!

Hi all. It's Bank Holiday Monday (similar to a US public holiday) and wow, do we have a nice day.

Rick's parents left this morning and we have been tidying up since, washing the car, popped over to Mum's and now were here and I've caught up on all the BOB news.

Questions for everybody.

1. What is a googley, and how do you get them?

2. What is FO? I saw the picture of the hat on the last thread, but I still don't get it. If you're from Atlanta like I am, then FO would stand for a Frosted Orange from a restaurant called The Varsity, but you guys are talking something else.

3. I have created 4 sliders for my siggie, but they all refuse to slide! How do I make it slide? And do I still get to go on the boat if my slider says 8 months?

Just when you thought you could shake me I found you. Wow you all did some chatting over the weekend! It was a beautiful weekend here so we got a lot knocked off Tommy's to do list. We are considering selling our house and buying a patio home. The country club we belong to are having some built on the 4th hole and we thought it may be nice to not have the yard work and maintenance. It seems that Tommy has time to do things at the school but the house seems to be on the bottom of his priority list. My only reservation is how my dogs would adjust.

This goes out to Disgrits - Paige, I haven't forgotten that I borrowed 'your' Avatar. I'll give it back to you when we meet up!

I saw you guys saying how addictive this stuff can be, and you're right. Problem is, I'm talking to myself! Where'd everybody go? I'm at 'work', but I'm missing everybody.

Meantime, I finished reading everything I missed on thread 26; now it's onto thread 27!

 

[thegrays]

Read page 1 - got the FO! I'm a little slow now, been a really long weekend & I needed to come to work so I could get some rest!

1. Every 100th post on a thread earns a googley. if you are the one making the post. (the googley is the smiley turning the ships wheel)

2. F.O. is earned when you succeed in making the first two postings on a page or (fresh one) You have to claim the FO on the second posting. no one keeps track of either game. it's all for fun.

3. I dunno. have you left the slider on for over 24 hours? maybe it has to slide forward in order to set itself (just guessing since I've no idea how it's coded)

Googley? http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=31679527&postcount=1710

FO....It's when you start a new page on a thread and then you must post the 2nd post on that same page to claim a FO.

Sliders...now you've lost me.

Looks like Steve got there before me.

 

[GOS]

Anyone seen Race to Witch Mountain? The remake of Escape to WM?

 

[GOS]

We're watching it now and the two leads from the original have cameo's in the remake.

 

[GOS]

Anyone else had experiences where you are sure you've seen someone before in a movie but can't place their name?

 

[GOS]

A Bank Holiday FO perhaps?

There you go, Chaz....an example of an FO.

All the time, since I have no memory any more

We've been watching Ugly Betty and Ralph Macchio (Karate Kid) appears in several episodes. He's grown up alot and his features have changed, but I was sure that I knew him from somewhere.
