Useless Facts/Chit Chat Thread

And I sat there trying to think of something DFW could also stand for and didn't come up with anything. Well, I did, but I figured I have a warped mind so I would let it go.

I hate DFW, it's such a huge airport and unruly to get around in. JFK stinks too.

Don't you have work to do?

 

[Gatordad]

shouldn't you be listing things on ebay?

No domestic squabbles allowed here.

Rog, Is that tattoo yours????

Noooo.....I have some work, but nothing that extravagant!!!



Man, I lost a bunch of money Friday night. Was forced to get too tipsy to remember what happened to it. I also was sent home in a cab, which lead to my car getting towed......Saturday morning wasn't anything nice around here!!!

I like DFtW too, or maybe FtW, it will be cool, nobody but us will know what it means!

Actually, there's a Fort Wilderness campgroung in Cherokee, NC too. So, the DFtW might be best.

Glad to see I didn't miss much this weekend We were busy cleaning our closets and getting the house ready to be shown. Everything looks good, so please cross your fingers for us that we get some showing soon.

We also looked at some homes with our realtor and fell in love with two of them. Both completely different. One is a custom built log home on 5 acres. It's cozy and charming and I've always had a thing for log homes. The other is a gorgeous waterfront home with it's own dock on an all sports lake. Smaller house and lot, but nice neighborhood and all the amenties your could think of. There are pros and cons to both but I'd be happy in either one.

Log Home!!!

Initially, I liked the middle one, until Rog told the "other" meaning. (No need to be trying to explain to the kiddos why all the bikers are riding by giving us a thumbs up, )

Now I like the first one.

This has already been a long week at it's only 10:40 on Monday. What's all this Finland stuff? Guess I'll have to go back and catch up. Is it anything like the boring Norway movie?

Good luck with that! I've been going back a page at a time, then find another conversation, so I go back another page to see what it's about, then find another conversation, then go back another page and now I've forgotten what I was looking for in the first place.

You know how on those Oval stickers sometimes they have small print saying something along the bottom of the oval??? We should put " Long Live Musket Mickey"....just a thought.

I will see what I can and can't do with the tiny lettering on the cutter. If I have to, I can make a clear sticker and put it on top like I am doing with the Mickey on the big sign.

I was afraid to ask myself. From time to time I find myself in situations where I ask..then I'm sorry I did. I'm thinking this would be one of those times.

 

[Gatordad]

Why not a big FW ????

 

[Shannone1]

Rog- you never told us what you thought of the movie "The Mist"....

 

[auntie]

Why not a big FW ????

Speaking for the naive...that sounds like the best option....since at least I know what that means!

 

[ntsammy5]

Just a bad day at work -- which seems to be happening more frequently lately. Thank goodness I don't have anyone working for me anymore. I don't need that hassle any more.

They both sound wonderful!!!!! I do love a log home though! I hope yours moves quickly so you can get what you want!!!!

Shannone -
I'm not quite sure what you mean by an all sports lake..but I would add this. My brother owns a home on a lake where for most of the residents it is their primary home. Slowly, over the last few years, many of the homes have sold and the new people who have moved in re-built. They have what would be considered a vacation home. While my brother doesn't live in his home full time, he does plan to eventually retire there. That being said a good many of the newer residents have jet skis and motor boats. Which is great..my brother has them also. Only they are using them at 6 am and all through the weekends. There isn't a whole lot of quiet time on the lake unless it's "off season". Just something to consider when purchasing a home that's going to be your primary residence. I would try to get a look at things at different times of the day and even different days of the week to see exactly what kind of use the lake gets, and if you'd be okay with it.
There is a bit of a battle going on where my brothers home is between those who want to put limitations of the type of watercraft on the lake and when. Battle between the kayaks and the jet ski's. Hard for the two of those to co-exist.

Rog- you never told us what you thought of the movie "The Mist"....

I gotta say...I dont know what I think about it.....the special effects were really cool....the basic story was cool and fairly original......but that ending scene...man, that really blindsided me. I just SO did NOT see that coming. I guess I have to say I'm glad to have watched it, but it really disturbed me.

 

[Colson39]

Is this the original "The Mist", or the new "The Mist" from a few years ago?

 

[Colson39]

Has anyone seen the new Bud Light coming out, the one that has lime in it? I swear this whole "lime" thing is taking over the mainstream beer market, it seems like they're putting lime in everything....
