I'm going to call it a night before I pull a Kristina and fall asleep at the computer. Besides, Caroline has to fold the laundry. There's a load in a basket and another in the dryer for you here when you're done, OK?

I just got a voucher for the CARS DVD and I believe it is only the paper receipt with the coupon for future purchases stapled to it.

Our teachers have been 3 years now with no contract - we live in a very old fashioned screwy district. Several of us went down to the board of ed meeting to speak on their behalf tonite. They are threatening to stage a walkout which will mean substitutes for our kids.

The teachers all left the meeting together after their president spoke.

Today is picture day at school -I volunteered to comb hair and help out to get and meet the kids from each of my kids K classes. That should be fun - aspirin anyone?

I have to do all my posting now before I run into the 3:30 am ghoulies.

Andy - Ken said that it is about $100./hr to rent a plane to learn to fly - that is probably for a 152. Then it is another $30-40/hr for a flight instructor.

I think the insurance on most flying clubs does not allow student pilots but you can join one and get your instrument rating. Then you get a members rate for the plane rental.

Buying your own is an option because you can buy an older plane for the cost of a motorcycle, of course cheaper if you share. The tie down fees are pretty expensive though depending on the airport and so is the annual maintenance required by the FAA.

It's a pricey hobby like a boat or horses but lots of fun.

No question I am a BOUNTY girl. Cheap paper towels just don't cut it. I pull through the gigantic mountains of towels to try and find the few cute prints - why are they so awful. Aren't there some unemployed Hallmark artists who could make decent graphics?

Neither do cheap tissues or toilet paper.

[elaineteresa]

fritos - like em, but agreed way too salty
Doritos - also kind of salty and messy
cheetos - love those puffy things but so orange!!

doesn't anyone like Mary Jane's?

 

[elaineteresa]

We noticed Andy - I don't think it's really fair that these part-time DIS'ers who got all pumped up eating apple dumplings at Knoebel's get to steal the pirates out from under us more legitimate, regular posters.

should we vote on that?

LOL.

 

[elaineteresa]

And where do you buy them? I've never seen them for sale anywhere, yet there are always some in the Halloween bag.
