I'm sorrounded by wenches and wasn't even offered to share in the Bailey's. Nite all. Jack

On its bloody history:
Cartagena has had a long relationship with the macabre. In 1610, the city became the seat of the Spanish Inquisition in Latin America. Although never as bloody as its counterpart in Iberia, the Dominican-led push to root out heretics, witches, Jews, and other undesirables resulted in roughly seven hundred local persecutions and five autos-da-fe [sorry, I have not idea what those are].

I forgot to include this in my prior post...

Main Entry: au·to–da–fé
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural au·tos–da–fé
Etymology: Portuguese auto da fé, literally, act of the faith
Date: 1723
: the ceremony accompanying the pronouncement of judgment by the Inquisition and followed by the execution of sentence by the secular authorities; broadly : the burning of a heretic

(apparently I'm very confused. She didn't get the pirate. So maybe she IS going on this cruise and just joining us? or did you mean she was trying for the pirate... *confused*)

She was trying for the post of 42000.

Here is a funny email I received.

Subject: Mrs. and Mr. Fenton



Mr. and Mrs. Fenton are retired. Mrs. Fenton insists that he go with
her to Wal-Mart. He gets bored with all the shopping. He prefers to get in
and get out, but Mrs. Fenton loves to browse. Here's a letter sent to her
from the store.



Dear Mrs. Fenton,

Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a
commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and may ban both of you from our stores. We have documented all incidents on our video surveillance equipment. All complaints against Mr. Fenton are listed below.

Things Mr. Bill Fenton has done while his spouse was shopping in Wal-Mart:
1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts when they weren't looking.
2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute
intervals.
3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the restrooms.
4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone, 'Code3' in housewares... and watched what happened.
5. Aug 4: Went to the Service Desk and asked to put a bag of M&M's on
layaway.
6. Sept 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.
7. Sept 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other
shoppers he'd invite them in if they'll bring pillows from the bedding department.
8. Sept 23: When a clerk asks if they can help him, he begins to cry and screams 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'
9. Oct 4: Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror, and picked his nose.
10. Nov 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, asked the
clerk if he knows where to find the antidepressants.
11. Dec 3: Darted around the store suspiciously loudly humming the
"Misson Impossible" theme.
12. Dec 6: In the auto department, practiced his "Madonna look" using
different size funnels.
13. Dec 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browse through, yelled
"PICK ME!" "PICK ME!"
14. Dec 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he
assumes the fetal position and screams "NO! NO! It's those voices again!!!!"
And last, but not least ....
15. Dec 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door waited awhile, then
yelled very loudly, "There is no toilet paper in here!"

Armed Robbery!

Reminds me...we have a fairly new Target. It was big doins' for our small town. There's a little shopping center in with Target and a Bath & Body Works in there. The other night, some stupid guys (early 20's) robbed the B & B store at gunpoint! And they were locals! I think that's the first-ever armed robbery in our town. Of course, they caught them....they were on foot. Idiots.

 

[PBader]

I thought 41k went to the Wenches?

You may be right. I can't remembr anymore.

 

[justmestace]

Hey!

I need the link to Stacey's bawling smilie. I want a hug from a Crisco-covered naked rugby player, too.

Isn't weird that your tongue always finds things like that and then can't leave it alone.

 

[arlenesp]

Well...

... some might say I'm just a little crazy (my spouse - but then again she married me and is still here after 22 years running around the world - go figure)... at any rate, thank you for the implied vote of confidence. And remember, you still have time to retract your comliments ON the ship... after you see how I'm plannin' on decorating MY DOOR. Last september on the 11 nite I messed up... I couldn't get the extension cord under the door to power up the stuff I brought. <chuckles> Next year I'm gonna have a better ... PLAN.

Door decorations involving an extention cord I can't wait!!!

Ouch.

I haven't had to get a crown in a few years, but I remember that feeling. Any sensitivity to cold or hot? You may have a dead root if you didn't have a root canal prior.

I had one that broke and had no feeling and they pulled the tooth.

I hear you about the tounge in the new space. It always seems to want to feel the area where the tooth was. Then you get DS who will gross DW out by sticking his tounge through where the teeth aren't.

Good luck at the Dentist.

My Chevron station has been robbed 7 times in 2 years all at gun point. Everyone of them were caught and prosecuted except there is still 1 out there. We didn't get a good pic of him. Had a big hoody on and something covering his face. I hate thieves.

I am going to pick smiley position #13 and post it no matter what is there.

I LOVE it!

Or we could go with "pirate smilie of the day". Just post the smilie that is currently in the position that the pirate is normally in. I think the pirate is usually right-middle of the third row from the bottom.

So right now it is actually there. But tomorrow, it might not be, so I'll just use the smilie in that exact location when I need a pirate.

 

[PBader]

Everyone have a good night. I have got to hit the bed or I am going to wake up in this chair in the morning.

 

[sk8ingmom]

I spent all my time tonight ketching up, now I don't have any time to chat.
I have a hockey game in a little over an hour. Gotta go get ready.

So far we've had 2 ties in the tournament.

'Night pirates (oh, he's still there!)

 

[justmestace]

ROFL! She is still in HS...right? When does she have time for that?

She's a Sophomore. Let's see....school dance team, 6:00 am to 7:15 when school starts, three mornings a week. Troupe at the studio 3 nights a week, teaching two nights a week and another dance class at a different studio one night a week. Perform at the school ball games mostly on Friday nights, competitions on Saturdays and Sundays.
She doesn't have her license yet, so that means either me or Dad drive her. Once in a while she goes with a friend.
It really gets bad when DS is also playing a sport.

You, too, will soon learn the fine art of being in two or three places at the same time.

NOBODY is allowed to tell my wife about the emeralds. I will hunt you all down and make you listen to NTWINE's greatest hits.

My silence can be bought. I'd say this might be worth one spa facial.
