The Maelstromers... a FASTPASS!

[Loubon]

If you want two funny '80s rocker stories (with pictures) go to the other coffee shop and first search for Rick Springfiled with my screen name as the author and then Joe Jackson with my screen name as the author.

Another FAFSA parent here. What a joke. They seem to think I can afford to send every kid on by block to college. Yeah right!

 

[HaleyB]

Thanks PasleaPooh! Yeah, I do the same thing writing it. Ignore the hubby, let the kids run around unsupervised....

Okay, maybe not the last part. I just leave that up to the neglected husband.

It's amazing how fast those hands on the clock move once I sit down at my computer.

I am glad I am not all alone in this. Last week the kids revolted and refused to eat hot dogs... so I have made a few real dinners this week. I have been thinking I need a crock pot so I can 'cook' supper and still have time to DIS.

Funny moment, I was talking to a neighbor and said something about spending all my time "dising" and she gave me the funniest look. After awhile I remembered that 'dising' is slang for, well, for talking back in a disrespectful way. No wonder she gave me such a funny look.

OK, leaving, now. Out the door. Gone. See you all latter. Our hotel has free wireless, so I will be able to check in here even while in San Antonio

I wonder if I need a 12 step program...

HaleyB--> funny about the neighbor thing and dissing!

i love my croc pot! my DH puts all the stuff in in the AM before work and i do nothing! hahah...that's why i looove croc pot nights! but now i noticed the Croc Pot thread over on the Creative Community Board and i may have to get serious aout the Croc! (the pot not the shoes)

RATT!!! YESS! I think my favorite album was called Reach for the sky. It had Way Cool Jr. and City to City on it. That was a great album! Man.

ANd VanHalen - they were so much better with David Lee Roth. I was excited when they got back together a few years back - though it only lasted for like 2 minutes. I actually enjoyed David Lee Roth's solo album called Skyscraper. That had some great ones on it too!

Another great group - and the first video I remember having seen - ZZ Top!

"She's got legs! She knows how to use them..." Talk about hotties!


Sounds like we have some disciples of that song on here -

1) "She's got melons! She knows how to use them..."

or perhaps...

2) "She's got back. You can crack on egg on it..."

LOL Sorry for a poor attempt at humor after only about 3 hours sleep. It was funny to me.

Blessings!
Mark

your sense of humor did not go unoticed to me...

anything raunchy, sexist or just plain vulgar is always too funny for me...esp from a minister!!!

jk markymark...hope that didn't offend you...are we friends still??

rhonda??? anyone???

Lil' Grumpy!!!!! You squeak squeaked twice. Well, technically, just once 'cause the second one was more of a squeak-ssqueaker. Huh? But thanks a lot. For noticing I was gone and all that. Dude. Thanks. Except for that little clown guy you threw in at the end. Have you ever heard of John Wayne Gacy, my friend?

La La ~ What are you trying to tell us: You wish that you had Jessie's girl???!!!! And a Brokeback shirt, too? Where's Java?

Paslea Pooh and DisneyMommyMichelle (nice to see that you picked the LONGEST name possible to Dis with) ~ The General is funny as crap. She was in fine military form this Easter Weekend. She's 78 years old and running around the back yard at West Point tying Calvin to a tree with a big long yellow skipping rope. Because he annoyed her somehow. Again. Then she ordered the troops, named Beth and Tommy, to throw their new big plastic Easter balls at him. Just not directly at his head or face. That's my Mother. In a nutshell. She also caught me skipping school, once, in high school with a group of friends. We were in the Fruit Market which was next to our school, buying healthy snacks, when she walked in to shop. She spied me trying to hide behind the cider display, screamed and chased me around the store until she caught me and then gave me a butt-whuppin' in front of my friends. I escaped... and took off towards the school in a full-on sprint. Leaving them all laughing in the Fruit Market. It was so much fun. They called me "Spanky" for about two months. I have a million General stories. Geez. I was buying HEALTHY SNACKS ferGodsakes! Anywho... that's my beloved, dreaded General. Also... that's why I'm tough as nails. I think. Heh, heh.

On to Vomit Story #1:

So. I'm coming downstairs at West Point and the place is a zoo. A Gong Show as usual... noisy, busy, toys everywhere... EVERYWHERE. I spy a blob of something in front of me and bend down and pick it up. I'm holding it in my hand and I can't figure out what it is. What the heck is it? What did the kids drop? It looks like Playdough or something to me. Flattened out like a pancake and sorta greyish. Like old Playdough made up of a bunch of colours all mixed together. Or else maybe it was Silly Putty with crap stuck to it? I can't tell so I decide to sniff at it. I'm holding the thing up to my nose when I hear the General yell, "BE CAREFUL! The cat just threw up on the stairs!"...

Back later.

Are all you GA folks lovin' this weather, or what?!

In the 80's music discussion, why has no one admitted a love for the old school rap? Come on....I KNOW someone had to like that stuff besides me!

Hard times, are comin', to yo' town, so stay alert, don't let them get you down...

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

I like your new avatar!!!

I like it this much:

That means nothing. Thanks a lot... ZZUB!

But I really like it. I do. Did Java make it too?

What is Horsebabyponygirlbaby's secret?????

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

MEl--> HILARIOUS!!!! Both Stories...wait the General REALLy tied up Calvin (he who scraped up his body like a cheese grater)???? OMIGOSH!!! and the VOMIT story was great! haha.... (you can try DMM it's not that long then!!)

Just got caught up on VetteChicks TR and you guys are right they are addicting...it's like really being there!!

 

[Mumbler]

Wow! A lot of you guys were all pretty into the hairbands. I was too busy listening to INXS, U2, the Eurythmics (or however you spell that).

So speaking of U2 and the Eurythmics, my DH came home from school with 2 stories this week, the first was about this girl who honestly did NOT know who Bono is!?!? So has she been hiding out in a closet????

So then he comes home the next day and there's a story about someone else that doesn't know who Annie Lennox is, or the Eurythmics!!!!

HELLO, is anybody home?

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

Mumbler: LOVE 16 Candles!

 

[Mumbler]

Disneymommymichelle: So sorry you got peed on! You really should be okay though since urine is sterile. You could probably just rinse your contact really well and be honky dory. If you can get past the gross factor that is!

Remember the episode of friends when Chandler has to pee on Monica's leg?

Anywho - Breakfast Club was the BEST! I bet I watched that 100 times!

 

[jw50]

WHO is talking about HOT without me present??

LOU??

JW???

HEEELLLO????

Makes note to self to always include Jen (PMM) when referring to hot women (of which there are alot on this thread)

 

[HaleyB]

Well I lied. I was not out the door. We are under a freakin' tornado watch. and a warning too, boy are they covering their bases. And a flash flood warning. And hail...

And the storm is right along the I-35 which I get to take all the Way to San Antonio. So we are holding tight for another half hour or so but I think if there are no rotations we will just hit the road and keep an ear on the situation. Hey, I can hide under a bridge, right.

I missed a pee in the eye story? Darn. I will have to find it latter. Max was one of those kids that sprung a fountian with every diaper change...

Listening to right now: Johnny Cash- Man in Black

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

i would sooo watch the Mel and General sit-com!!!

I was the peed on person! ughh my Gabriel has never ever done that to me before...i guess i got to comfy...but ewww..it was gross and warm and he laughed! can you believe it the little bugger laughed!! and then my little Autumn at 15months thought this was all hilarious that i am running around yelling GROSSSSSSSS and Gabriel is laughing and i have a trail of pee coming out of my eye..so she is laughing too and laughing and laughing and then she looks up and says gwos (gross)....

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

What for the love of God is Horsegirlygirlgoo's SECRET??????

Thanks for your edit HaleyB! HB. A sitcom, eh? Am I offended or flattered? Heh, heh. The scary thing is that the craziest things DO happen to us. And we appreciate them all. Mostly. Except for our Yachtsman Steakhouse Meal. That was TERRIBLE. Terrible. As bad as that stupid motorcycle head guy.

Terrible. Terrible. Not "terrible" is no longer a word. And I'm not sure if I'm spelling it right or wrong.

Where's ZZUB? Is he nauseaus and that's why he's away? 'Cause I have ANOTHER vomit story coming.

Melons... I see you're not editing your posts. Maybe that's why Marky Mark is not responding. Hummmmm...

 

[horsegirl]

What for the love of God is Horsegirlygirlgoo's SECRET??????

What secret Mellygirlie? I am an open book, child......welcome back baby, gotta run to tball game. Will try to hop on tonight.....

 

[ZZUB]

Nice, Mel. You picked up cat vomit?! No more joking about the public schools in the good ol' US of A. I'm public school educated and even I can spot cat vomit on the stairs and know not to pick it up.

On the other hand, the visual of you rubbing moist cat vomit in your fingers sent my lunch to the sunshine; so thanks. Two more of those stories and I should be off of 2% milk.

How's this for ironic? Despite the overall good reviews for Yachtsman, we're not eating there after all. Instead, we're eating at Le Cellier. Maybe this time those lousy canucks can find a way to make the food above average. You know, I didn't hate it last year, I was just underwhelmed. My wife said she really liked it a lot. We'll see. Besides, I figured if Reverse Nobuol owns at BCV and hasn't eaten there, maybe somethin's up. By the way RN: based almost exclusively on your recommendation, we're going to try to grab lunch at Beaches & Cream. You understand, of course, that if it sucks huge (like Maelstrom), I'll be sending you a bill.

It's ironic.
What do you mean?
You know, we lost the little things, the niceties.
No, what does ironic mean?

Disneymommymichelle: So sorry you got peed on! You really should be okay though since urine is sterile. You could probably just rinse your contact really well and be honky dory. If you can get past the gross factor that is!

Gross and Contacts seem to just go hand and hand...
My older (always have to add that!) sis was taking out her contacts one day when the doorbell rang, for some reason she put it on her tongue and went to answer the door. On her way there she stepped on large dog bone crumb in her bare feet and when she winced in pain she accidentally swallowed the contact. Now here's where it gets GROSS...

WARNING...SCROLL AHEAD TO THE NEXT POST IF YOU EASILY GET GROSSED OUT!

*OK I WARNED YOU ALL...Here goes

Since she was leaving for the weekend and didn't have a back-up pair of glasses or contacts, she grabbed the kitchen strainer and induced vomiting after taking a LARGE swig of water out of the BATMAN cup sitting next to the bathtub. After sifting through her lunch of Taco Bell she did find her contact and proceeded to wear it that weekend. When recanting this story to the family when she returned, she found out that the BATMAN cup was the one that my dad used to use when he woke up in the middle of the night and had to pee but was too lazy to get out of bed. Needless to say both the strainer AND the cup hit the trash!
