I'm thinking that the pictures I get from this cruise are going to be worth quite a bit of cash somehwere...I haven't figured out where yet...:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

OK, time to head out...be back soon...

Here's to hoping you don't figure out where . . .
 
I think the genre is "mostly rock". Miles Davis has one at #12. Robert Johnson #27 :confused3 IMO, not rock, but if you are going to put that one on the list it should be much higher.

They got it right with The Clash, but the Sex Pistols aren't on the list until 47, behind the Ramones at 31. Now if we are talking about far-reaching influence, which I think they are with Sgt. Pepper, Revolver and Pet Sounds, then they missed the punk boat, so to speak. You can still hear those influnces in alt. rock today.

I thought the same thing about the release dates. Maybe all the reviewers were the same-ish age. Anyone anywhere near my age would put Nirvana's Nevermind & U2's Joshua Tree in the top 10 (17 & 26 respectively).




I would put Joshua Tree at number 1 on my list and DH was definitely have Nevermind in his top 10!
 

OMG!

Guilty as charged to varying degrees - just today in fact!
At least you admit you were guilty. Don't let this go to your head, but you are a nice guy.






Anchorage forecast:
High 15
Low -1

Maui forecast:
High: 82
Low: 70

Here is an interesting situation...my sunscreen is frozen!
I went shopping yesterday during lunch, so it sat in my car all day.
I wonder if freezing alters the effectiveness of sunscreen.
I wonder if I am the first person in the history of the world to freeze a bottle of sunscreen.

I'm off to work. Hi Ho and whatnot.


I can actually say it was a beautiful day today. The high was 74. By the end of the week, back down into the 40's. It was nice while it lasted, all of one day.


Tell me about the positioning. I never subscribed to the thread because I would always find it in the top 3. Now were falling. May have to get a subscription so it is easier to find. :rotfl2:

I couldn't find the thread either. I thought maybe we were booted off!:laughing: We have not had Lisa to keep everyone under control.:rolleyes:

I must apologize for my outburst yesterday. I have since cooled off, and I can only chalk up my frustration to the fact that I was having a stressful day.
But I do want to clear my name (in my defense) to those of you who may think I'm a total witch because I'm not always there for friends and family to babysit...I have been an aunt for almost 12 years. I have been friends with SEVERAL folks w/kids for over 7 years. If it were just one sibling or one friend who occasionally asked for favors, that would be one thing. But I have a brother with 2 kids, a sister with 3 kids, a set of friends with one child, another set of friends with 2 children, friend with 1 child, well...you get the picture. And over the years, we have come to be known as the "go-to" folks for ALL of these people!! And they generally expect free child care. We have been more than generous with our time, and have done so happily and willingly. But we're just having to cut back because we simply feel like we need more time to ourselves for all of the planning and preparations we're doing.

OK, that's all I'll say because I really didn't want to bring this up again today, (because it's really yesterday's news) but I don't want anyone here to think that I'm just being a big ole meanie... :rotfl:

No one ever thought anything less of you for venting. You need to take time for yourselves right now. I even say no to babysitting my grandchildren once in a great while.


OK, the girls just called as they were getting in the car. I found out that Angelina had to take a test and it was 100 questions long, that's why she was in there for over an hour. Angelina said some of the questions were kind of funny, now she has to wait until the manager looks over her answers to see if she gets called back for another interview.

When she applied at Limitied Too back in November, she was hired in the spot, looks like B-a-B really goes the distance with their hiring practices.

OK, I've got to run and meet the girls for dinner at Wendy's....... :wave:

Tell Angelina it is more a personality test.:rolleyes: I had to take a two hour test to work for the MOUSE. I always spent more than I ever made. B-a-B could not be really careful. I was hired.:rotfl2:

Hi Laura,

Feeling better - just wish I could get rid of the fever and get my appetite back. I'm going back to work tomorrow no mater what though.

Are you back 100% yet?

Glad you are feeling a little better Lorri, but becareful going back to work too early!!! You do not need a relapse. I wish I could give my appetite to you. I love :cake: cookies and anything else that is fattening.
 
Well, all, i am off for a while. I have meeting with others in my area who are in the window treatment industry. Chance for a dinner out, and time to network. Maybe, I can pop in for awhile when I return.

Enjoy your evening.:)
 
Note to self -- Deck 7 is sounding better all the time . . .

(Not because you are avoiding it, Brack!)

Oh I understand! It sounds like a wenches paradise with the Captain.
 
Hi Everyone,
Wow I've been preoccupied for the past couple of days and I've got over 40 pages to ketchup. The reason is - well, I wanted to get a buddy/playmate for Annie- the German Shepherd I rescued on Valentine's Day - and GSD rescue came through again. Sunday we brought home Max a 3 month old puppy. I probably need my head fixed to get a puppy with everything else going on. But - it was love at first sight.

I've got to run as DGS just got home from Kindergarten but I wanted to share. I hope I downloaded the pictures okay.
I'll check in later - hope all well with everyone & hugs, prayers and PD to those in need.

Chris :yay:

What a cutie!!!
 
Andy, look at the bright side, you're not old enough to be my dad. I'm sure there are DISers here however that are only in their late 20's.

I'm dreading the day we hire someone here that has a b-day in the 1990's. Bad enough I had an intern that was born after my HS graduation. :sad1:


You guys know that I'm in HR right? Well in 2005, the first time I was involved with hiring someone born in 1984 I looked at him, a big strapping 21-year-old young man and thought, this is the human embodiment of my marriage. Now your probably thinking that's weird, I did too, but it was really an amazing way to visually quanitify my marriage and think about how long a period of time being married to someone for 21 years really is.


Then i reached over and patted my husband on the back for a job well done.....how in the world could he have tolerated all those years married to me :rotfl:
 
Our thread had been open 4 days -- 300 posts

At our current average of 75 posts a day
Approximately 576 days until we repossess
That would create us 43,200 posts.

Okay - I was reading back posts and just came across this one and laughed out loud when I saw it!
 
Okay 6 Days from the boards and you guys rack up over 100 pages ...I looked at the summaries and if there is anything important that I may have missed pm me please ...But had a greta break from the board , worked on the FJ , went 4 wheelin and a good friend came in from Chicago ...So...

The High res artwork for the shirts I have been waiting for has finally started coming in , so I will have the final cleaned up version of our artwork by the end of this month ....It would be sooner but were going to Disneyland the 23rd thru the 25th ...LOL

Anyway ...Here are some pictures from the 4 wheelin expedition ...LOL

Well Welcome back Capt!!

Looks like you had a blast during your absence!
 
Yes, Paula -- and you and I will know that fun again very soon (less than two weeks for me; less than a month for you) -- right? I don't think I could stand to see that picture if I wasn't starting to get into the mood of being back there.

:) It is getting mighty close. We leave in 24 days..............
 
Good morning all! :wave2:

Hope this finds everyone doing well. Thanks for the well wishes and pixiedust: I'm on the mend and now my DD is :sick: . Not the flu, just a fever of 102* and a pretty nasty cough.



Hey Karen, glad you're on the mend Pal......hope your DD is better soon and that fever breaks quickly!

We were married in March 1972 (35 years ago) this was some of the information from that year:

Cost of a new home: $30,500.00
Median Household Income: $9,697.00
Cost of a first-class stamp: $0.10
Cost of a gallon of regular gas: $0.36
Cost of a dozen eggs: $0.52
Cost of a gallon of Milk: $1.20
:confused:
 
I just got back from taking Angelina to her school musical practice, just as I returned the phone was ringing, it was the manager from B-a-B, he wants to see Angelina tomorrow afternoon at 4pm for a more in depth interview. He also said Angelina did quite will with the 100 question survey she took this afternoon!!! :goodvibes

That is great news.:cool1:

Now, if you could keep good thoughts and say prayers for Hazel. She started having severe IBS attacks after we arrived home from dinner tonight. Hazel has an appointment to see our family doc this Thursday. She first starting having IBS attacks in December 2004, then they stopped in February on 2005, never had anymore problems until just a few weeks ago, now they are getting more severe again. :scared:

Hope Hazel gets to feeling better. :)
