Hi, everybody! :wave2:

We're back! I promise to post a little report on our weekend trip later. Just let me say that we had a great time & Krystina loved it!

TaeJa: no, at Six Flags Fiesta TX they have a wooden roller coaster called The Rattler. It used to claim to be the fastest, steepest wooden roller coaster, but I think they had to decrease it a bit because people were complaining they were getting hurt because it was too fast. I used to ride it in my younger days, but I guess I'm getting to be a chicken :scared1:

as I get older! I WILL NOT ride it anymore!! I'm more into roller coasters with loops & turns, NOT drops! :scared:

~Hey, I am so jealous!! I had read about other DISers getting the coconut with the souffle recipe & thinking "I WANT THAT!!". That was the highlight of my trip to Palo. Can you post or email me the recipe? YUMMY!!

Amanda01: Tell your DH he did a wonderful thing with his hair. I remember that was the 1st thing I noticed about him when we met you all (the long hair). I personally prefer short hair on men too. I would love to donate hair too, however my hair takes FOREVER to grow & I end up getting really tired of waiting for it to grow that I end up just cutting it. Maybe DD can donate her hair in the future. You stated you grew up in TX? What part/town? How did you end up way out NorthWest?

Jennifer: Congrats on your new cruise!! So jealous of you too! Guess I'll have to live thru your trip reports!!

I've really got to get some things done around the house today! Take care! :wave:

You know he thought of the lock of love, I had forgot about donating it. I grew up in Bay City, it's on the coast in Matagorda county. Very small town, with the small minds to match. DH and I met in the Navy in California and he is from the northwest. After living in San Diego long enough to see our bills skyrocket we decided to move closer to his family. I love living here. It seems that everyone is really open minded and accepting of everyone. The complete opposit of where I grew up. But I am a true Texas girl at heart. No matter where I live I will always be from the south. It's in my blood. I have been to the Six flags in Houston, but not the one in Dallas. Are they similar?

Well Ladies the painting is almost done, however I can't paint for a while. Yesterday while painting I pulled, pinched or just plain broke something in my back. It hurt so bad that I felt it more when I would breath. I think I pinched a nerve. I know there is nothing the DR can do so I will be laying around and getting nothing done this week. What a way to start out my spring break! At least I can sit at the computer ! DH got me a new wireless keyboard and mouse. I think its supposed to be some really techy cool thing ( definition- computer geek cool! ). Anyway the keyboard has more extra buttons that I know what to do with. So now I am forced to surf the net to better understand it. Oh wo is me,!

Sorry to hear about your back. Have fun lurking and posting! Hope you get better soon. I'm sure our DH's would have a get time talking about computer "geek cool" stuff. My DH's a techie too and man we've got so much stuff we still aren't state of the art b/c technology changes so fast. :badpc:

What a horrible trend to follow...worse than clothes! :rotfl:

Today is my DH's birthday. He wants to try and take the kids to the park today. We'll see how he feels.

Take care all! :sunny:

Sunny day, hooray!

DH was watching a show on the travel channel last night about two or three families going to WDW and Epcot. The familes would tell about what they liked to do and some of the not so popular places to visit w/in the parks. I missed a lot of it, but the show looked really cool! I didn't know about the kid pass where adults can still go on the Bear Jamboree while the kids played at a little climbing spot. Cool suggestions, and I missed the show! Whoops! :crazy:

ericamanda01 · Mar 16, 2005

Hey taeja how is your DH's knee doing? I hope he is feeling better. As I have said before I have several surgries, but I wonder who it was more hard on, me or DH! :earboy2:

HUSBAND MART<?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = O /><O

A store that sells husbands has just opened in <?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = ST1 /><ST1:CITY w:st="on"><ST1

LACE w:st="on">Chicago</ST1

LACE></ST1:CITY> where a woman may go to choose a husband from among many men. The store is composed of 6 floors, and the men increase in positive attributes as the shopper ascends the flights. There is, however, a catch. As you open the door to any floor you may choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go back down except to exit the building.

So a woman goes to the shopping center to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: "Floor 1 - These men have jobs."

The woman reads the sign and says to herself, "Well, that's better than my last boyfriend, but I wonder what's farther up?" So up she goes.

The second floor sign reads: "Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love kids." The woman remarks to herself, "That's great, but I wonder what's farther up?" And up she goes again.

Third floor sign reads: "Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good looking." "Hmmm, better" she says. "But I wonder what's upstairs?"

The fourth floor sign reads: "Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking and help with the housework."

"Wow!" exclaims the woman, "very tempting. BUT, there must be more farther up!" And again she heads up another flight.

The fifth floor sign reads: "Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking, help with the housework and have a strong romantic streak." "Oh, mercy me! But just think... what must be awaiting me farther on?" So up to the sixth floor she goes.

The sixth floor sign reads: "Floor 6 - You are visitor 3,456,789,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping Husband-Mart and have a nice day

We've hit another bump in the road. I can't remember if I told you all my DH ended up going to the ER Sat. night. He's fine now, but my Paternal Grandmother (last living grandparent) is ill. She's in Calif. So, if all goes well, we will be traveling to Calif. Monday thru whenever.

Sorry if I don't post very much as much is on my mind. The Eeyore in me would like to be hiding in his house of sticks. :sad:

m but the Tarzan in me is hanging on and swinging through the trees.

I'll be lurking and I'll try to post when I can.

I'm so sorry to hear about all the road. If there is anything we can do were here. The only thing I can do is try and keep sprits up. I have decided to post jokes today. So everyone needs to check throughout the day! Here we go!

12 Shots
A guy goes into a bar, orders twelve shots and starts drinking them as fast as he can.
The bartender says, "Dang, why are you drinking so fast?"
The guy says, "You would be drinking fast if you had what I had."
The bartender says, "What do you have?"
The guy says, "75 cents."

What Are Politics?

A kid goes to his dad and asks, "Dad, what are politics?"
His dad replies, " Put it this way; I am the breadwinner of the family so I am capatilism. Your mom is the owner of the money so she is government. The government is the provider for the people so you are the people. Your baby brother will be the future, and the nanny is the working class. Now think about that."

So he went to bed. He was woken by his brother. The baby had pooped in his daiper. He went to tell his parents, but he only found his mom asleep in the bed. He didn't want to wake her, so he went to the nanny. The door was locked. He checked through a hole and saw the dad in bed with the nanny. He went back to bed. The next morning, he went to his dad and said, "Dad i know what you mean now."

"You do? Tell me."

"OK, while capatilism is screwing the working class, the government is sound asleep, while the people are watching the future being pooped on!!!"

This one's for all us G.R.I.T.S ( Girls Raised In The South)!

A young man was pulled over by the Mississippi State Police for speeding. The officer stepped out of his patrol car, adjusted his sunglasses, and swaggered up to the young man's window. "What chew driving so fast for boy? You going to a fahhr? Let me see your license, boy." The young man handed over his license.
Then the officer noticed that the back seat of the car was full of large knives. The officer said, "Tell me boy, why you got them knives on that there back seat?"
The young man replied, "Well sir, I'm a juggler."

The officer spat some tobacco juice and then he said, "A juggler; well you don't say. Boy, put cha hands on the trunk of yer car; you going to jail!"

The young man pleaded with the officer not to take him to jail. He offered to prove to the officer that he was a juggler by way of demonstration. He said, "You can even hold me at gunpoint while I juggle for you." The officer reluctantly allowed him to prove his point while he held him at gunpoint.

Two miles down the road at Joe's Tavern, Billy Bub was drinking it up with Jerry Lee Jones. Billy Bub soon left and got into his old, rusty pickup truck. He proceeded down the road trying his best to stay on the right side. All of a sudden Billy Bub spotted the most unbelievable sight of his life! He drove to the nearest phone booth and dialed the number for Joe's Tavern and asked for his buddy, Jerry Lee.

When Jerry Lee got on the phone, Billy Bub said, "Whatever you do when you leave that tavern, don't go north on route 109. The state police are giving a sobriety test that nobody can pass!"
