has anyone seen the movie sweeny todd?
a friend of robins from work had it and told her you have to see it, so she let robin take it home this weekend.
i told robin she's not allowed to be friends with that girl anymore.

it was different. the weird part was, you had to keep watching.

Scott had wanted to see that movie But I was like no way. He will rent is soon i'm sure.

Lovely photos -- looks like she had lots of fun

Oh, I've been thinking about MW folding when they were so arrogant about the AT plan to purchase. They CAN NOT survive on their own. AT will kill them in this market.

AT is already adding a lot more flights and going right at them.

Now this week MW announces laying off 150 or so.

That's exactly what they were talking about on the radio. Alll the airlines that folded in the last few weeks were the same size as MW. Not only will AT kill them but with the other possible mergers of some of the bigger airlines it will just keep making it hard for these small ones to stay alive. Not only did MW lay people off but they are planning on cutting flights, I think I heard 2.5%. I keep watching our flights for Dec. hoping they don't cut them or worse yet fold before than

I haven't seen it, but Angelina and her friend Trish saw it the first day it came out. Our high school summer theater is doing the Sweeny Todd musical in July or August. Luckily for me, Angelina didn't sign up to be in it. I'm sure the musical version is somewhat more mellow than what was displayed in the movie.

Jeff, is that recipe on the Food Network website? I'll have to go looking once I get caught up on the DIS...

I would think it is, but if not, I can PM you.

Actually, all it is, is take a canister of biscuits, cut the circle in the middle (I use the cap from a soda bottle) to get the ball and the big O.

Heat the oil (she recommend, and I use, Peanut Oil) to 350*. Just put them in until they are brown on one side and then flip over. So easy to make and like I said, sooooooooo good.

I think the key for us was finding the low-fat biscuits.

Is your whole group planning on those same days Jen?

I wonder when the Janice and Mark and their friends from Tomah are planning on doing?


Al was never able to get ahold of his friend for me to call his sister yesterday. Maybe today if there's a chance before the musical or after we go out for dinner to celebrate. We have time yet to get this all sorted out.

I'm not sure, but I think they would if we did a charter...

We're going to see them on May 3rd (we're all going to Spamalot in Milwaukee - our Xmas present from BIL and SIL) so I'll bring it up.

 

[goofyfreak]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIR ANDY!

 

[JLDSMD]

Thanks for the call Jeff, it was great chatting with you, Mr. 1000!!!

Always a pleasure to speak to you too Andy.

Mr. 1000? Honestly, it was all luck.

 

[millerpjm]

Still trying to catch up...sheesh...!

 

[Verandah Man]

Of course your highness


Did you ever tell me why you're "Verandah Man"?

Did you ever get to check out the home page on my website? www.verandahman.com

 

[goofyfreak]

Still trying to catch up...sheesh...!

Jen, I know the feeling. It took me 2 days to finally get caught up. Been a busy weekend.

We didn't see this one, friends had told us about it and said it was "strange" and not to waste our time. It sounds like No Country For Old Men, I didn't like that movie but I had to keep watching it I'm sure Al will still rent Sweey Todd and watch it without me some night when I am at work.

 

[Karen Mouse]

I know you probably remember that...can you believe that was three years ago?

Well, grab a tissue and check out this video I made the other day. Be sure your sound is turned up.

Oh how lovely

My favourite piccie was the bathrobe one - thats just the cutest

 

[millerpjm]

Oh, you're the one bidding against me.

Just kidding, I don't do eBay, except to buy DS his tux last year. Can't beat $30 to own compared to $90 to rent.

Suz is in to Amazon. I gotta watch her on that.

I'm more of a brick and mortar type guy and need to touch and hold things before I buy it. Guess I'd never go for a mail-order bride.

I'm like that too, Jeff. Unless it's something like a book or CD, I need to see it first. I can't shop for clothes or shoes online.

Amazon does have some good deals on books and movies...but I also have a friend that works in purchasing at our local library - she get us library prices on lots of books...

The big clue to see if you are in trouble is to see if the travel insurance companies will let you get coverage for the airline. If not, then I'd be worried.

May want to look into insurance, at least for the flight portion.

Yeah, and I'm sitting on a beehive..................

 

[Karen Mouse]

I still want to have Karen come over and paint...

I'd love to but I think I'm starting on the hall, stairs and landing once I've tackled the garden, followed by the downstairs bathroom and then the 2 upstairs bathrooms. After that its the master bedroom, guest bed and then the 4th bedroom. After that I'll be done

Sounds good!

Too bad I just started dieting again!

I have used peanut oil in baking before - try making brownies with peanut oil sometime...that's good too...

I bet quite a bit of oil gets absorbed. Measure the oil before you heat it, then measure the oil that's left over after cooking.

This is the item I just won, my birthday is getting mighty expensive this year..........

I've got to stay away from eBay for awhile.........​

i saw that on sell and ship last nite.
i was looking at the disney princess sign they had too.(just what i need, another sign for the garage wall)

i'd be on DIS double secret probation for life.

 

[Verandah Man]

Just wanted to say...........
