It's a bit early but just wanted to wish all my DIS friends

NewWINNIETHEPOOH-Photo2wtpsogv2.jpg

Happy Thanksgiving!
 
Circuit City has the Olympus STYLUS 770 SW 7.1 Megapixel Digital Camera for $291.99 with free shipping (that's the one Andy R used on those cool pix I think)

That's definitely the one AndyR used. Thanks for the heads up...I just ordered one. I'll have to take it on vacation in January to try out some underwater pics!
 
Joe Piscopo once gave me a bottle of Dom. I think I was 17 at the time.

LOL I remember hangin with Joe when he was here in Vegas filming one of those Miller Lite commercials way back in the day ...I was a big Vegas radio DJ back back then

Just an observation but there is just ususally one spouse who posts on the boards.:rolleyes1 I guess I am the crazy on in my relationship.:lmao: :lmao: ;)

In our case, I tend to post because I can actually type - watching Mike type is actively painful... The funny thing is that in person, he's much more gregarious. I guess it balances out.
 
My son is an EAGLE!!!!!!!
Tonight was DS#1 Eagle Board of Review.. and as of tonight

He is an EAGLE!!!!!!

I am so proud of him, he has worked so hard and accomplished so much...

so tonight I am an EAGLE SCOUT"S MOM...:thumbsup2

Congratulations!!!My little brother was an Eagle Scout many years ago and that's a lot of work.

They have to redo the tracks. There are some places that have not held up over the years and they've just been patched and repatched, leading to a more shallow track. This causes the boats to get stuck more often. The buzz on the internet is that it is due to Americans being bigger now than they were in the 1960's so the boats are heavier.

I thought I remembered reading that they were also replacing the boats, as well as deepening the canal...

Wow , if these are Made with RUM then I am all about these ...:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Oooo.... Pirate Rum Cakes. What a brilliant idea.

But, wait, Tom -- YOU WERE the one who volunteered absent people for cupcakes, champagne, etc. . . . :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

So the question is, "what do we volunteer Tom for when next he drops out of sight?"

This is slightly early, but

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!

I am thankful that you are all such a great group of people, and I'm really looking forward to spending 15 days together in August.
 
I feel like the kid in the photo below...

...what an impressive and INTIMIDATING gift package!

Clearly, I'm gonna have ta step up the intensity of my plans

Crash even after a long day at the theaters, you make me laugh. I hope the snow we are getting is not headed your way!!!:eek:



Does it have to be champagne or is sparkling wine ok?:confused3

I will settle for any kind of alcholic beverage!!;) :rolleyes:

well if your talking Champagne then there is only one for me ..Dom Perignon.

:lmao: :lmao:

pirate:

I would be willing to take a glass of Dom Perignon. :rolleyes1 It is my favorite although I have only tasted Dom twice in my life.:rotfl2:

Joe Piscopo once gave me a bottle of Dom. I think I was 17 at the time.

Do tell us the story??:confused3

Well, I did have a slice of Pumpkin Cheesecake tonight after dinner.............:laughing: :laughing: :laughing: It was yummy!!! :love:

That was for tomorrow.:laughing: Do you open your Christmas presents early.:rotfl:

In our case, I tend to post because I can actually type - watching Mike type is actively painful... The funny thing is that in person, he's much more gregarious. I guess it balances out.

It is painful for me to type and spell at the same time.:laughing:
 
Crash, I hope you know it was all said in good fun. All DH sees is the pictures and they do not seem to make sense (unless you read the text). Your pictures are some on my favorite posts. Always good for a few :laughing: chuckles, especially if I am having a difficult day at work. I often take a few minutes to check the boards when I am stressed out at the office. Which has been a lot lately.

I've been seriously referred to as a bit of an obstructionist - back in the days when most folks had dial up (Wink to Cheryl)... and I've even been thought of as a bit derranged with the long winded posts I used to make (ask Kritter about those) ... so now ... I had to pause in reflection with the notion of posting disturbing images. Thi was something NEW. At first I thought back to the things "I" thought were wierd and had to smile ... this one below being one of many favorites :

CatFlap.gif

So ... yeah ... I assumed it wuz in good fun poking at me about being "disturbed". Like tonite - I paused to show my BIL the posting I made with Alicia holding up the ultrasound of his son - and the first thing he quipped was "that I must have a lot of spare time". I was not really expecting that - especially since I had not mentioned that I had posted 3,000+ entries with images like that here - so I just replied that it didn't take very long to make it ... then I silently thought - well, gee... it must be tough for him to have no free time to engage in whimsical diversions.

Crazy_Lady.gif

I know a lot of folks get pretty busy with thier weekly schedules... as I used to be... and even so, I get pretty busy too sometimes. But, I had to wonder ... am I so different from the average surfer here? I dunn-o. Than after a moment of further reflection - I decided it really doesn't matter. Sometimes - like now when most of the family is asleep or going to sleep ... I take a little time to wander here - as well as with several other sites of interest. And I figure I'm OK doing what I'm doing. It's generally good clean fun. I'm usually not hurting or taking advantage of anyone - except maybe Cheryl when we taunt her about her old dial up line. < wink > I'll just continue doing what I feel like doing - regardless. What I post makes ME smile and chuckle... and if it brings a spat of soft giggling to YOU sometimes ... and especially IF sometimes your spouse or kids end up asking "what are YOU laughing at Mom or Dad?"... then it's worth doing.

Oh well... no offense taken. No worries. And - I hope everyones' holiday is ready for creating a memorable experience in the next few days. And, if nothing else - I ope everyone has a safe and relaxing break over the next few holiday days.

So see... if i didn't post so many image laden postings - i'd be writing these long winded novellas. Take your pick? I find the images afre of more interest to ME - and leave a little more to the imagination sometimes - so in recent months it's been image heavy postings for me! Some even with NO verbage attached!

oK.... I'm gonna go wander backwards to catch up now...

On a final note - as I am thinking I might just drop off to sleep very soon... I'd like to share that today we had a wonderful dinner at a place called Barducchis' (misspelled perhaps)... and an otherwise low intensity day. I head the new baby cry and complain for the first time. Otherwise he's been such a relaxed and quiet critter! He was shapingup to me as one of the most agreeable tikes I had come across in some time! But now that I've heard him cry in complaint - I know he is in fact quite normal.


OK - time to go now...

Adios!

ok here is another PIRATE joke.. I started telling it to my son,, but had to stop.. so i had to tell you guys...

This pirate walks into a bar with a big ship's wheel down his pants. The bartender says, "Excuse me, sir, but do you know you have a ship's wheel down the front of your pants?"
And the pirate says...
Aaargh, it's driving me nuts!!

:thumbsup2 :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :lmao:

Are you considering having children? To determine whether you are truly prepared for the experience, we suggest you take this set of simple tests...

MESS TEST:
Smear peanut butter on the sofa and curtains. Now rub your hands in the wet flower bed and rub on the walls. Cover the stains with crayons. Place a fish stick behind the couch and leave it there all summer.

TOY TEST:
Obtain a 55-gallon box of Legos. (If Legos are not available, you may substitute roofing tacks or broken bottles). Have a friend spread them all over the house. Put on a blindfold. Try to walk to the bathroom or kitchen. Do not scream (this could wake a child at night).

GROCERY STORE TEST:
Borrow one or two small animals (goats are best) and take them with you as you shop at the grocery store. Always keep them in sight and pay for anything they eat or damage.

DRESSING TEST:
Obtain one large, unhappy, live octopus. Stuff into a small net bag making sure that all arms stay inside.

FEEDING TEST:
Obtain a large plastic milk jug. Fill halfway with water. Suspend from the ceiling with a stout cord. Start the jug swinging. Try to insert spoonfuls of soggy cereal (such as Cheerios) into the mouth of the jug while pretending to be an airplane. Now dump the contents of the jug on the floor.

NIGHT TEST:
Prepare by obtaining a small cloth bag and fill it with 8 to 12 pounds of sand. Soak it thoroughly in water. At 8:00 PM begin to waltz and hum with the bag until 9:00 PM. Lay down your bag and set your alarm for 10:00 PM. Get up, pick up your bag, and sing every song you have ever heard. Make up about a dozen more new ones and sing these too until 4:00 AM. Set alarm for 5:00 AM. Get up and make breakfast. Keep this up for five years. Look cheerful.

PHYSICAL TEST (WOMEN)
Obtain a large beanbag chair and attach it to the front of your clothes. Leave it there for 9 months. Now remove 10% of the beans.

PHYSICAL TEST (MEN):
Go to the nearest drug store. Set your wallet on the counter. Ask the assistant to help himself. Now proceed to the nearest grocery store. Go to HR and arrange for your wages to be directly deposited to the store. Purchase a newspaper. Go home and read it quietly for the last time.

FINAL ASSIGNMENT:
Find a couple who already have a small child. Lecture them on how they can improve their discipline, patience, tolerance, toilet training, and child's table manners. Suggest many ways they can improve. Emphasize to them that they should never allow their children to cause havoc. Enjoy this experience. It will be the last time you will have all the answers.


OK - I was looking for something in the old postings and obviously did not find it. FAT CHANCE with 80,000 postings to go through. But I did come across several dozen postings which had me chuckling again and again tonite. The preceeding ones were a couple that earned special mention and re-quoting.

And on another note before I turn in for the nite... if anyone sees any really hot BLACK FRIDAY ad items - please post them here so more of us will have a chance of getting them. I've gone to the black friday web sites with Alicia and we just did not see much of interest. Maybe I'm missing it all ... I dunn-o? We're looking for a nice middle of the road slim pocetable digicam for middle of the road cost. We've sort of decided that the old Canon pocket digicam we had appears to be LOST. that was Alicias' camera - so it's the biggest thing on our active list of interest. Believe it or not - I am mildly amazed at how much of a camera yu can get for between $75 and $150.

OK, TTFN!
 
Just put our turkey in the oven about 15 minutes ago, we like to eat early because we have a family tradition of going to see a movie later in the afternoon, this year we are going to see "Enchanted."

I wanted to stop by and say:

Presently 58 going up to 80 here in Sunny Central Florida :goodvibes

:grouphug: :hug: pixiedust: and prayers to everyone who is going to need it today.

Happy Thankgiving Everyone

Have a great Thursday
 
That was for tomorrow.:laughing: Do you open your Christmas presents early.:rotfl:



Sometimes we do, one year we got home from Church on Christmas Eve around 10pm, all three of us were not feeling all that well and decided we would sleep in on Christmas morning, so we exchanged our gifts, then went to bed shortly after. It's a good thing we did, because both Angelina and I woke up in the morning with fevers..........:sick:

I have another funny one to share. Hazel and I had only been married about two months. We had all our Christmas shopping done early and the gifts were wrapped about two weeks before Christmas. Yep, you guessed it.........we opened our gifts two weeks before Christmas, oh the fun carefree years!!! :rotfl:
 
Morning... I was up at 4:45 am to wait in line at Miers ( sp) for a zune for Eric... but they sold out before it was my turn... did some last minute grocery shopping and then came home and ordered it online at TRUS for the same price..

well off to cooking and baking.. Have a happy Thanksgiving..
