I didn't get to get back on last night b/c his brother & SIL came back to our house for the night. We sat around and listend to them read their latest screenplay out loud. WooHoo big fun here !! I kept trying to sneak into the computer but the kiddos were glued to AdventureQuest or something.
AMaloy314 said:Hey, I just remembered herodrx1. Isn't someone in your family a big Michigan fan? I wonder how he took yesterdays game.
herodrx1 said:I do. My brother & nephew are HUGE fans. I have a BIL that LOVES OSU. I was hoping that cell phones (that ring the fight song) were ringing off the hook. I'm sure each side was biting their nails a time or two.
Down here it's OU & Texas that get things interesting.
AMaloy314 said:Your in-laws write screenplays? I had no idea so many people did that!
Was it any good? Have they ever had anyone take an interest in anything they wrote?
that's pretty cool.
herodrx1 said:Although it makes me see that my DH does now what romance is but chooses not to apply it toward me!
AMaloy314 said:
This sure makes it easier to understand why the Mayans played that ball game where the losers got killed. I'll bet they had a HUGE following!
AMaloy314 said:I have to tell you this story....Remember that beer commercial with "Evan", the perfect sensitive guy that all the regular guys hate? Well, DH got me the best Valentine's Day gift last year. He got me a DVD of "The Notebook" and a nice pen with my own notebook. He wrote on the inside about how maybe someday we could write our own story in it. I was shocked at how romantic he had been. Then he signed the card from Evan!!
herodrx1 said:Hey AMaloy, you didn't tell us if "The Queen" was any good.
We watched "Love Actually" after "the reading" last night. I should have put that down as my favorite movie. I cry all the way through it. Happy tears, sad tears, & funny tears. Its great!!
oooooohhhhh Steelers......don't come between DH and t.v. when they playTracy Savage said:No, We have the Steelers to deal with today. That was a good game though wasn't it? I haven't heard the news yet, Is Columbus in one piece?
Just now passed back through and saw your post........no offense taken here!!!!!!!!herodrx1 said:Good morning Eclipz!!
Just in & out myself today. So don't take offense if posts are few & far between.
Good to hear Tim's alive and well. Not so sure you want an honest answer to his questions!Obi-Wan Pinobi said:Hi everyone! Just an update from Tim for you all. He has literally been working for the last two days from morning till night developing charts of all the applicants in the different variables being used to decide who is picked for teams. He has writers cramp and a headache. He said to tell you all "Hello" and that he is sorry for being stuck behind the scenes, but he is working non stop to figure out a way to involve as many people that they can in the actual game.
Oh, and he wants to know if you guys are behaving and have stayed away from the bananas, the Jim Beam and the lime green underwear.
I'm not so sure I want to know.
