Hi Everyone! Kathy and Shell- thanks for the challenge. My first post in a very long time. I have been trying to catch up. In two weeks we will be sailing! Can't wait! Everyone here is getting excited.

Wow Robin...I would have loved to see that...I am actually going to do a little research on the movie right now-Chelsea-DD wants to know if any of the actors are still alive....I believe the main actors are all gone....but what about some of the munchkins....??

Well, of course, we took Sarah to meet Mickey Carroll, one of the last remaining munchkins! He signed a print, "To Sarah, The Good Witch" and I wanted to kiss his little head. He told us stories about the filming and that did the "Dorothy" tornado call for Auntie Em. Her voice wasn't strong enough.

He played several parts, including the Mayor of Oz. Too cool.

Now click your heels three times and say, "There's no place like the Magic...there's no place...."

For those who don't know, Greek Minnie is my long missing DW Mina.

Shell and Bill - It was an entertaining game today. I actually watched as a relatively uninterested observer. Thought Cleveland was going to win this time.

Hey Guys,

Checking in. Staci has been working on packing some today. Me, Savannah and Cierrah went to my mom and dads today for lunch and to visit. I think I am going to try to work on our door signs. The ones I have so far are saved in Word, so I am not sure how to post them on here.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!!!

 

[magicsgirl]

Oh, what to do... what to do...

This may be too late...but start by removing all prepostional phrases and reword. That should take 100 or so words off for you.

I had the following joke in my email. I thought it was pretty good, and it will up our post count too!!!!

Why men don't write advice columns...

Dear Walter:

I hope you can help me here. The other day I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV as usual. I hadn't gone more than a mile down the road when my engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt.

I walked back home to get my husband's help. When I got home I couldn't believe my eyes. He was in the bedroom with a neighbor lady making mad passionate love to her.

I am 32, my husband is 34 and we have been married for twelve years.

When I confronted him, he tried to make out that he went into the back yard and heard a lady scream, had come to her rescue but found her unconscious. He'd carried the woman back to our house, laid her in bed, and began CPR. When she awoke she immediately began thanking him and kissing him and he was attempting to break free when I came back. But when I asked him why neither of them had any clothes on, he broke down and admitted that he'd been having an affair for the past six months.

I told him to stop or I would leave him. He was let go from his job six months ago and he says he has been feeling increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant. I don't feel I can get through to him anymore.

Can you please help?

Sincerely,

Mrs.. Sheila Usk

Dear Sheila:

A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it is clear, check the jubilee clips holding the vacuum pipes onto the inlet manifold. If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber.

I hope this helps.

Walter

Jeff, I hope you get to feeling better soon.

Melanie, I hope Jackson gets well soon.

Okie, thinking about you and your mom, hope she is getting better and you guys have a good day.

Again...can't tell it here, but remind me to tell the you guys the bullfrog joke!

Period of history: This is tough...I would have liked to have been at mission control during the Apollo 13 crisis. At school, my mantra is "Failure is NOT an option."

I would love to sit down with Walt Disney in the company of my grandfather Daddy Mac. I always watched The Wonderful World of Disney with Daddy Mac and he loved the imagineering. I think that's why I'm so Walt crazy...somehow he and my grandfather morphed together in my memory.

Mel, I wondered where you had been! If you hear wheezing, make sure that the doctor gives you something strictly for his lungs. If the sinus stuff is a problem, he will need a different antibiotic. If they don't give Sarah both, she keeps reinfecting. So sorry your little one is having trouble. It's awful. We'll be the cute little nebulizing moms on the ship...sharing a drink.

Okay, back to funny. Ken is almost seven years younger than I, so lately I've been thinking about my appearance. (Not DOING anything, but thinking.)
Anyhoo, this morning we were awake early, and I mentioned that I wanted to get my eyes done by a plastic surgeon. Not skipping a beat, he said, "I wonder if Blue Cross Blue Shield would pay for any of it?"

I'm not sure if I should be offended, but I like his line of thinking!

Kim, I'm excited to meet everyone and hope I can get names and faces straight. Isn't it funny that we know each others' personalities, though?

DD put up our tree, but I haven't hauled ornaments, etc. down yet. At lunch time, DD said that she wanted to have Thanksgiving TODAY! Like it's easy finding a fresh turkey breast on Sunday afternoon. I rushed like a maniac, we ate, and now I'm on the couch. I'm starting to get all breathless because some of you are already packing!

I might just have to get fired up with some organizing tonight.
