DH just brought some laundry in and sat down on the couch. Then I hear "Ewww now I know why there was all this fluff". When DH put the laundry in he just grabbed out of the basket and did not pay attention so he ended up washing AND drying a used pull up! Nathan must have tossed it in there when he was getting undressed one morning! Gross!

well...now it is clean and ready to be used again!

 

[MrsMork]

I'm sure they eventually made it home ok and that you gave DH the "gentle" reminder.

*CLASS PROJECT GONE WRONG *

A good laugh is always nice
*warning---if you are drinking coffee,
Swallow it now*




-------------------------------------------------
CLASS PROJECT GONE WRONG
An elementary school class started a class project to make planters to take home to their parents.
They wanted to have a plant in it that was easy to take care of, so they decided to use cactus plants.
The students were given green-ware pottery planters in the shape of clowns which they painted with glaze.

The clown planters were professionally fired at a
Class outing so they could see the process.

It was great fun!
They planted cactus seeds in the finished planters
And they grew nicely, but unfortunately, the children were not allowed to take them home.

The cactus plants were removed and small ivy
Replaced them and the children were then allowed
To take them home instead.

The teacher said cactus seemed like a good idea
At the time!


cactus

OMG!!! That is too, too funny!! Could you just imagine the look on the teacher's face??

I wish I could have "knew" surgery because I don't seem to "know" anything these days!

Better watch out Becka. Amy wasn't too fond of John's response, though it just may be because it was John.

 

[pyramid2000]

Caroline you had better be hiding...

I can't believe that you doubted me! When have I been wrong about milestones!!!! The numbers never lie!

 

[pyramid2000]

That is why drinking and dancing should always go together!

Geez, fall asleep and POOF! 20 pages appear!

Turkey Testicle Festival can keep name




FORT MYERS BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- Organizers of fourth annual Turkey Testicle Festival can keep their name, despite concerns about the propriety of the word and the island's virtue.

The Fort Myers Beach Council voted 4-1 Monday to allow the Surf Club bar to use the Turkey Testicle Festival name after a laugh-out-loud discussion, according to the News-Press.

Councilman Charles Meador said this year's festival will the fourth annual, and went on to list more than 12 other cities that host annual events with the name "testicle."

"Who cares what the name is," Mayor Dennis Boback said. "Money is going for a worthy cause."

The festival has raised about $3,000 for the Harry Chapin Food Bank in each of its past three years. A change in policy that requires the town council to approve special events brought the issue of the name to the table two weeks ago.

Councilmen Bill Shenko and Garr Reynolds had said the name is inappropriate for a family island. They asked that the word testicle be removed from the name and all advertising.

Shenko reversed his position Monday and supported the name. Reynolds continued his opposition.

"We do have youngsters here," Reynolds said. "We're trying to uplift their thinking

Thanks for the news updates Karen!

Dh and I have eaten these.. they deep fry them and call them Rocky Mountain Oysters. Dh's uncle tricked us into eating them and told us what they were afterwards. Ugh. Never again!

Military Brat?

nope, but that or witness protection are the most likely guesses huh? My Dad was an engineer. Now he is retired and my brother is an engineer moving his family all around the world.

Amy's Home!

But she kept playing phone tag with Tana, and did not get to meet her.
(How can two DIS'ers be in that proximity and miss each other?)

BTW - I also now know how to pronounce Tana - Amy told me - it was on her voice mail answer . . . Maybe I can post that little secret on Ebay to the highest bidder . . .

What a shame they missed each other. Glad to hear you are back safe and sound Amy and everything is good. Wait, we'll have to hear from Amy to see if Sophia and the house were left unscathed!

DS received his first phone call from a girl tonight. She asked him to meet her at the fall carnival next Friday at school. I didn't expect those calls to start for at least another year.

whaaat? this is not something I was planning on for a long long time!
