A new personal record ... of questionable merit!


Kids, don't try this at home without parental supervision....

OK CC, I think it's

for the West Coasters. Nighty, night.

BTW, I love the fractal image. There used to be an online fractal generator that I played on all the time. I don't know what ever happened to the site, but they were up to 500 pages of fractals.

G 'nite,

Dream of fractals while calculating consecutive prime numbers to sleep!

Hey y'all - late night for me again. I second or third or whatever the sentiment of where's everybody. Must be the holiday weekend. We went to pin trading night at DLR and there were almost no regulars there. It was scary - loaded up on some new lanyards though - hope this time I do something with them. I usually place them on my boards and admire them. Except this time, maybe I'll bring them to WDW w/us.

PIT - I used to live in Compton for the 1st 10 yrs of my life. Off of Willowbrook and Rosecrans. Each weekend night starting Friday was a designated "race" night and my father would lock us in starting at 6:30 pm. I lived there from '66-'76. I once took my DH to 'visit' my old stomping ground and he couldn't take it - he flipped out and only made it as far as the railroad tracks. I got a good laugh out of that. However, as you said during the day it isn't bad and I did jury duty there in June - they have actually cleaned up the place - I was impressed - for Compton that is.

CC - we also have no plans this weekend, must be because we're sailing in about 2 weeks time - couldn't quite justify another weekend in Vegas. That and I didn't want to take a chance on losing everyone's gifts.

Anyway, dropped off my 2 babies at the Country club and made sure that they are having their yappy hour each night with other spoiled pooches along with their private play time and ice cream. Ive felt so bad for them because I usually play with them each day but because of the surgery and recovery time, didn't want to jeopardize myself. I told myself that they will be ok - at least they will have others to play with - that and my Isis is in heat and for some strange reason (I have no idea why - ) she gets rather moody and depressed - I swear sometimes acts more human than I do. That's ok - she fits right in.

PIT - had to laugh at a somewhat similar situation, we're merging onto the fwy when DH rolled the window down (one of the dogs broke wind) and Isis ran to the window and stuck her head out - while I'm reaching back to make sure she's buckled in - I was able to witness the driver next to us almost swerve and hit the car next to them when this wolf-like head pops out of the window. I just saw his hand go to his chest and burst out laughing. Guess he'll think twice next time he decides not to let us in as we're merging. It's moments like that that make me laugh.

Oh well - time for another post as I have TONS to catch up to CC

 

[captaincrash]

WooHoooo!!!

Odd... I just setted with my spouse that we CAN attend Scotts' wine and cheese (kid friendly) gathering on saturday evening!

GOtta PM him!

And ---- is catchin' up on my posts so tough? I only made 74 in the past 27.5 hours?

Ok CC - you must give warning about those migraine producing images (I'm sure that staying up all night has nothing to do with the headaches) . So now please remember:

When to give warnings:

1. MATH ALERTS!

2. MOVING TARGETS! or whatever them darn things are called!

 

[eeyorelvr10]

OK - well maybe they're not moving. Maybe its me...........

NOPE - its an illusion on my brain.....really must get some sleep. (sorry that's the only icon with zzzzzzz's )

 

[eeyorelvr10]

Darn it - how many posts to a page again?

 

[eeyorelvr10]

Hey Cpt Crash - decided to take a ride up past your area today - will be hitting the Camarillo outlets looking for great bargains this weekend. DH isn't looking forward to it - I still feel uncomfortable driving so he'll have to do the driving.

Anyway, if there's one thing my family can say about me is that I can always sniff out a bargain. Someone posted that they found a $180 dress for $15 dollars (forgot who sorry) I'm jealous - although the best one that I found was a full length leather coat from Wilson's Leather for $10. every female in my family got a full length leather coat from me that Christmas - I just happened to luck out as they had 2x, 3x and XL - I cleaned them out! Couldn't pass that up! Although I had to buy another suitcase to carry them home with me. (It was at an outlet in WA state - one of the outlet malls out Snoquamie way I believe)

 

[eeyorelvr10]

Good nite all - I finally yawned so I'm gonna try and get some

When you get to the C Outlet - do you have a AAA card? Go to the Outlet security office and get your DISCOUNT BOOK. The coupopn we ALWAYS use is the 2 for 1 Aunt Annies' one.

And - depending on when you go - consider giving us a hollar (PM us with your timing and I'll a reply with my cell phone #) and maybe we'll meet up with ya to stand in line for Aunt Annies... We don't want to be intrusive - just a sort of light greet and maybe walk about a little (our usual haunts include - Sacks', Movado, Cole Hann, Coach, Puma and Nike, The Children;s Place [next to Bose], and of course - Aunt Annies') before we part to run off to Fry's and more shopping we were considering in Ventura.

HOWEVER... be warned... the parking and crowds can be ... INTENSE... on holiday weekends. And ... I must confess, the alterior motive I have for going "down the hill" is to get me closer to Fry's electronics in Oxnard.

And.... BTW.... getting the WIlsons' coats at those prices ... TAKES THE CAKE.... what-a-BARGAIN!!!! We used yto swing by the Wilsons' Outlet in Burbank (or there abouts) and used to see all sorts of fire sale deals... HOWEVER... a LOT of their super deals were all damaged. Many were knife slashed or missing zippers and such. Really unrepairable damage or really awful colors. Plus an ocassional GEM. Now I con't find where all my leather is... except that little leather whip and the kinky stuff... oops ... just kiddin'.

Tracy, GRET NEWS LETTER, THANKS MUCH!!!!!!

Also glad the surprise went so well. KEWL..

Ken is the Magic going somewhere in May/07?????

Lynn is working and will be home in about 3 hours, she won’t get much sleep. SCUBA class 12:00 and we need to stop by the Doc’s office to get some shots for our Feb trip.

**** As a diver it is good to have an up to date Tetanus ***** Not just divers anyone who might get a cut, puncture, etc in less than ideal conditions. My doc recommends every 5 years. ****

If ya still want that pizza and the Palo deal is still on....we can arrange delivery.

Bob is now calling a dispatcher to find PIT’s location while googleing Pizza Hut.

 

[lmhannon2004]

good morning all,

i've just read the newsletter which has got me even more excited about the cruise. great job Tracey and the other contributers

 

[Scott H]

Go right ahead! We are in Compton, LA. If you can get a pizza guy to deliver here more power to ya! It's a little scary at night. But if a pizza guy delivers here Kev said he wants to shake his hand.

And give him a big tip, been there late at night a few times,......

 

[Scott H]

Dogs are ran, and fed. It is cold here 34’ burr, I need a warm location trip.

Might go camping, but I don’t like camping with crowds, like I suspect it will be during the holiday. We cant get out till Sunday night and would have to be back Monday so Lynn can work.

So we get to start packing this weekend…..

 

[webray]

I'm pretty darn Hangry right now (re: so hungry I'm angry). And we are in Vegas, of all places. Home of a million all you can eat buffets. I can't give in, i can't give in, i can't give in........

Ooh..I would give in, if we were going to the buffet at the Wynn...those cookies are to die for..lol.

 

[Scott H]

WooHoooo!!!

Good Evening everyone! Made it to Ohio (Elyria to be exact) without incident. It took me 6 hours but only one stretch of road construction and that didn't last too long. My dad is still in rehab but doing well from his knee replacement (second one on same knee) and Mom is happy to have a driver to take her shopping ! I am just happy to have somewhere to go besides Wally World to go shopping!

Glad you made it safely. Good news about your dad, hope the rehad continues to go well. I know it takes a while.

Have fun shopping with your mom.
