LOL! How'd you get a photo of the Etobicoke plant's computer room?!?

By the way MARK, WHAT DO YOU MEAN "THE PMS (POORLY MANAGED SISTERHOOD)"!!! Our Sisterhood is fabulously organized, and has excellent backup in all positions!!!!!

I happen to be the "Sunday School Teacher" member of the Sisterhood. I enjoyed your "50 word summary" of the Bible. Short, but to the point!:teeth:

I saw this on another thread, and thought we Fools would enjoy the photo too! Happy turkey day with the reminder of our cruise to be!
 

Well, it's taken me all day to get caught up on this thread. I'm so happy to be a proud member of the Sisterhood. That newest picture of the fashionable cruise wear that "Bob" is modeling will look so nice in Panama as it collects all the sweat underneath when we are on deck. And let's not even talk about the odor involved. I'm sure Eileen can come up with some kind of help with this. Happy Thanksgiving everyone !!! And I'm so jealous of the cruising members at the moment. Sounds delightful !!! :wave2:
 
:cat:

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Fools, no matter who they are. And of course happy un-thanks to all our Canadian members.

The bikini wearing turkey gave me a chuckle. And I LOL at Marks' stories.

Hope Melinda et al are have a great time. Hope Melinda is actually gone and not sitting in the airport still waiting for her flight. There really isn't anything to do in the Lehigh Valley "International" Airport. The quotes are cause we have a whole two flights that land here that started somewhere outside the US.

This is late for me but DH has a bad cold and went to bed at 9:30. Somehow that was just too early. His cold includes lots of coughing. So he took NyQuil about 9 (never took it before). So by 9:30 he was asleep in his chair. I shipped him off to bed.

Probably won't be around tomorrow. Lots of cooking to do. So try and keep the posts down to maybe 100 or so. Thanks

Arlene, if Poorly Managed Sisterhood won't do, how about these other meanings for PMS:

Psychotic Mood Shifts

Pack My Stuff

Permanent Menstrual Syndrome

Perpetual Munching Spree

Puffy Mid-Section

People Make me Sick

Provide Me with Sweets

Pardon My Sobbing

Pimples May Surface

Pass My Sweatpants

Piss-off Mood Syndrome

Pass My Shotgun
 
Hey Arlene, As a teacher, have you ever had one of these days??

Even teachers have their limits for the patience


Elementary teacher was helping one of her kindergarten students put on his boots? He asked for help and she could see why. With her pulling and him pushing, the boots still didn't want to go on.

When the second boot was on, she had worked up a sweat. She almost whimpered when the little boy said, "Teacher, they're on the wrong feet."

She looked and sure enough, they were. It wasn't any easier pulling the boots off than it was putting them on. She managed to keep her cool as together they worked to get the boots back on -- this time on the right feet.

He then announced, "These aren't my boots." She bit her tongue rather than get right in his face and scream, "Why didn't you say so?" like she wanted to.

Once again she struggled to help him pull the ill-fitting boots off. He then said, "They're my brother's boots. My Mom made me wear them."

She didn't know if she should laugh or cry. She mustered up the grace and courage she had left to wrestle the boots on his feet again.

She said, "Now, where are your mittens?" He said, "I stuffed them in the toes of my boots..."

Her trial starts next week.

Mark,

It's been nice knowin' ya ... when Aunty Brat sees this you're a dead man :teeth:
 
Mark, Mark, Mark....why are you forcing me to use my power for evil instead of good? Do you not understand that I am mean and evil and well, not a good person to make mad? I read murder mysteries for new ideas. I watch Forensic Files and Dr G Medical examiner so that I know what NOT to do to be caught. Is not one dead man and another who went to jail enough to convince you that I am not a person to be trifled with?

Perhaps we need to meet for cocktails? Do you want me to make you an oleander martini or would you prefer a prestone freezy? Really, it will be no problem at all!!!

Love,

Aunty Brat!
 
Sisterhood I am here to discuss with you the problem men have call UMS.

UMS a.k.a. as Ugly Mood Swings can strike at anytime for any reason. Some common causes are:

Inability to find the remote control
Satellite dish or cable going out during favorite sporting events
Needing to leave easy chair to fetch own beer
Children breathing too noisly in their sleep
Being called to dinner during television programs
Phones ringing
Driving the car and other people having the nerve to be driving on the same roads at the same times
Having to go to work
Having to come home from work

These very stressful events will cause the start of UMS.
During UMS the male will yell colorful metaphors (that your children will repeat later in church and/or in front of your parents), huff & puff, stomp, slam things, and quite possibly throw things, and mutter unintelligably under their breath. If they are in the car, they will also speed up, slow down and use various finger and hand gestures to make sure they have fully communicated their dis-satisfaction with the other drivers failures.

There is a cure for UMS, but until they change the law, it is still considered a felony to kill them. Unlike your pets, you can not put them down just because they have gone rabid.

Love ya Mark, mean it!!!!:wave2:

Aunty Brat
 
Aunty Brat, you make the Sisterhood proud! We salute you and your visions for the future...ROFL!

BTW Mark, as a speech-language pathologist in the schools you should see what the children do and say...it definitely keeps one laughing and young at heart. Not uncommon for my preschool autism students to have their shoes and socks off in one quick split minute...they may be close to non-verbal, but boy can most of them move! These dear sweet children, what a journey they have in life.

Now, who's going to do shoe duty in Flounders and the DCL kids clubs???:eek:
 
Well I've been away for a while and I am glad things haven't changed too much. I have unfortunately noticed that the power of this thread has taken a definate turn toward the feminine side!

Happy Thanksgiving All!! (Belated to our Canadian friends)...

Why do you celebrate in October and we in November?? My theory...it took the Indians a month to get from dinner at Dudley DoRight's post to dinner at the Pilgrims home. Long walk in those days.

Mark...are you sure that's not a picture of you after the Tazer experiment. That guy has no crotch!!!

Today I give thanks for the following- 11 days without facing Mark's plagiarized litanies. PTL,Amen!!! (We can say that here - Red State!)

Plans - dinner today at daughter's house in Lakeland. Spend the night with grandkids. Friday in MK. Pack, Sailaway Saturday!!! See ya later
Bob
 
Happy Thanksgiving to all our American Friends!:wave:

Happy Thursday to all my Fellow Canadians!:wave2:

Izzinmac - I hope you and Mary have a terrific time on your cruise. Don't forget to scope out any useful info for our invasion (er ... arrival!) next August! (ie, how to link us on the same dining rotation, if they have heard of "The Fools", etc.)

You'll just have to catch up on Mark's litanies when you get back!

Arlene

Happy Turkey Day to you guys down south.
I actually prefer the earlier Thanksgiving. This is only a month away from Christmas. Then again I could have turkey every week and would be fine with me :)
Crappy day up here. Tractor trailer jack knifed on way to work this morning, snow and cruddy roads. Had to take MIL to hospital yesterday and we spent most of it at hospital. Still don't know what it is but kept her overnight so hopefully will be good news today.

Going to go and watch the Russian Junior Hockey All Stars playing the Ontario Hockey League All stars tonight. Should be a good game. Hope the NHL stay out forever, those money hungry so and so's. Junior hockey is affordable, good hockey and close to home. For the 3 of us to go to a game is alot less than half of what one ticket for a mediocre ticket at an NHL game would cost, if I could even get one in Toronto.

Jazz is making the Turkey today. He is looking after Denise. He is such a gentleman.
btw Jazz tell Heather I got three tickets for "Wicked" today as a Christmas present for us. Coming to Toronto in March so got the presales. Should be good.

Cheers,
Grumbo

Bob, just what are you trying to say.


How does that saying go, good men borrow ideas, but great men steal them.

Bob and Mary have a great cruise and relaxing vacation. We'll hold the fort down in your absence.

PS- Don't forget your recon duties while onboard!! Tell the cruise director to add Laura (Aunty Brat) to the list for the you-know-what!!...Mark
