8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 7

There is a Oprah Oscar special on in Primetime.

Okay! Now the comments make sense. So it sounds like I didn't miss much!

Alright, we (or at least I) need to know why they continue to play musical smilies with us! Do the ones not up front get jealous? Were they promised equal time in the spotlight? Maybe we are being cohersed into which ones we should use or how we should feel based on which ones are convenient to use. Or possibly, the smilies themselves fight with each other and last man standing wins.


Whatever the reason, I wouldn't care so much if when I opened the dreaded "more" button and the smiley window popped up, it would stay up as it did before and not close automatically after I submitted my reply!


Sorry, carry on.

Alan DH is having knee surgery tomorrow. I found out yesterday--he swears he told me a couple of weeks ago. I am sure that everything will be fine--but I really don't think he told me............maybe he did while I was trying desperately to catch up on this thread. It really made me feel bad.

Wishing your husband all the best tomorrow

WARNING - TOTALLY OT
I cannot figure out my water bill. They were saying on the news that the city is going to start gouging people who are "heavy users". Well, as I look at my bill today, I am pretty close. I REALLY do not get this. There are 4 of us. DH and I shower daily (less if we do it at the health club), DD's just every other day. I run the dishwasher every other day. I have a set up Neptune washer whish is supposed to be a low water user. Obviously not watering in the winter. We do have a fountain outside but I buy bottled distilled water for it.
It says we use anout 25,000 gallons a month. Does this sound correct?
No leaks, running toilets, etc either.

Did you get to this Andy?

Maybe we are being cohersed into which ones we should use or how we should feel based on which ones are convenient to use.

"coerced"

All this talk of Ash Wednesday and church, reminded me of this joke.


Three little boys were concerned because they couldn't get anyone to play with them.

They decided it was because they had not been baptized and didn't go to Sunday School .

So they went to the nearest Church.

But, only the Janitor was there.

One little boy said, "We need to be baptized because no one will come out and play with us.

Will you baptize us?"

"Sure," said the Janitor.

He took them into the bathroom and dunked their little heads in the toilet bowl, one at a time.

Then he said, "You are now baptized!"

When they got outside, one of them asked,

"What religion do you think we are?"

The oldest one said,

"We're not Kathlick, because they pour the water on you."

"We're not Babtis, because they dunk all of you in the water."

"We're not Methdiss, because they just sprinkle water on you."

The littlest one said,

"Didn't you smell that water?!"

They all joined in asking,

"Yeah! What do you think that means?"

"I think it means we're Pisscopailians.

Very cute!

Thanks MJGirl.


They are talking on the news about a pitbull that bite off 1/2 of the ear of a 12 year old boy last week. It didn't get lose it jumped what looks like a 6 ft fence and never left his yard. The poor boy ear where they reattached it--is not taking.

When my DS was in HS, Disney would ask the marching bands to start off the Christmas parades at night. Since we were chaperones, we got to go with them. The buses park in the back lot near the end spot of the parade. We would tell them we wanted to see the kids(not) and they would let us in the park. We all dshed on POTC and the buss drivers went on SM.

While that does sound enticing, Joel I will have to save my $$ for one of the first cruises.

Ok I am going to turn the news off----all bad. I usually don't watch too often.

Well, the heater guy just left. He's been here since 3pm.

Good news is I have heat.

Bad news is he has no idea of the cost they're going to bill me

I agree. I don't use them a whole lot. But I liked to keep the page open.
