Good morning and Happy FRIDAY!! Dry thank you for the grits. I’ve been debating if I wanted to try the new place that opened up where I used to get grits, but I guess I got another week to decide. Lew good luck with that plan :-)
Good morning all, TGIF. Although I have to work tomorrow, so TGIF doesn’t mean anything to me today. Dry, can I get 3 over easy with some Tony Chachere’s sprinkled on ‘em, a couplea slices of toast with stromburries jam (as my kid used to call it) and some grits please. Gotta skip the good stuff since it’s a Lenten Friday :(
Tabby, I would like to hide in some unoccupied office with a couch, but unfortunately, we don’t have any unoccupied offices or any couches in those offices.
Unfortunately, Lonewolf. But when I am done, I will spring forward at that time. I know I’m going to be hitting the hay earlier tonight after last night. It’ll make my transition into the next work week a little smoother.
Hi Grog, bunny, cleo, saucy and MsngNOLA I got 7 hours of sleep but could have slept longer, some idiot called at 9:15 and then I couldn’t get back to sleep, laid there for an hour and got up. The rain hasn’t really started or that would have put me back to sleep.
Agreed, Lonewolf. I am looking forward to it. I think that’s another reason I like to spring forward early. I never look forward to falling back, though.
Lonewolf, I scheduled a meeting with our tech center this afternoon, which is a location much closer to where I live. I know I’ll get out early and have a shorter trip home. But better still, I’ll be able to spring forward even earlier!
I’m lucky to get 7. And I stayed up late last night. Can’t do that tmr. night though! Could have slept longer, as I said, but .. . Why do people assume everyone is up when they are?
I was up last night, that’s for sure. I was so happy to be home. I guess here it might to be a little more difficult to tell when people are faking it.
LuvH8, please see my comments to Dry above. I will be UP, though, by the time I leave the tech center this aftternoon, which should be shortly after 3:30PM.
Grog, Doc, Lonewolf & Cleo ~ remember you are not old enough to be dirty old men. You can still be Cyber-Slapped! Oh and so can Bunnyface! Though I would probably have to ask forgiveness.
Grog, I couldn’t sleep the first time I tried last night. After a few posts, I was able to rest for a few hours. Now I need to stay awake until this evening to get straight again. And even that is no guarantee that I’ll be able to sleep! It sucks.
Lonewolf weren’t you one of the people talking of the reasons not to ride bulls? Where do you think I get these ideas.
It is not my fault!
I was imagining a bunch of men in a country western style bar. Hanging out after watching the rodeo. Get them all some beers.
Next thing you know: Lonewolf, Grog, Doc & Cleo are standing around with one beer in their hand for drinking and one beer in the other hand to ice down aching parts. There in the background is Bunnyface leaning on the ‘bucking bull’ laughing his posterior off.
Lonewolf one of the things that works best for me (when I am actually tired but can’t sleep) is to put in a movie or cartoon that I have seen many times before. I can usually sleep until it ends, then restart it to go back to sleep. If you can find one that loops, or use your techno-geek talent to make it loop without that annoying end of movie music even better. My daughter loved Lady and The Tramp until I started falling asleep every time she made me watch with her.
Bye Lonewolf, I thought you said that was one of the reasons you quit. Sorry. If you notice I did not say what the aching body parts were. I figure there’s got to be a lot of aches after being thrown off a mechanical bull.
The day has zoomed by Terry. I saw Shika* comment that she was going to make dinner and looked at the clock. I couldn’t believe how fast the day has zoomed by.
Hi Cleo, Tabby, Shika, JDOc, Serena, LuvH8 and Terry, and anyone I missed. We woke to snow on the ground but it turned out to be a glorious day! For a while there, I thought I might have to be like Wink and get the skis out. Cleo where are the mines you are researching?
I’m thinking of locking Senile Psycho Kitty (not my cat) in one of the buildings outside, so I can sleep more than 45 minutes at a time during the night.
Actually, I got the impression it was real bulls. Was it as much fun as it sounds like it was scary? Oh and WHY?
It’s my sister’s cat, but she died, so I take care of him. He doesn’t like people much, which is okay because I don’t like him much. Hee~hee~hee. But he is around 20 years old, so I am nice to him.
Mua Is looking out the window. He likes that he is my height when he does that while I work on the computer. I wouldn’t mind letting him out into a well-fenced yard, but cats are different.
My neighbour’s cat fell off their 6th storey balcony and died at the vets with a broken back. It gives me nightmares.
Lonewolf-
Hee~hee~ha~ha~ha~ha~haaaa! That comment about it being good I am nice to the cat struck me as funny.
I had a dog when I was a kid (well I only liked/remember one) he used to sleep in the middle of my bed. He would sleep outside with us when we were kids and protect us from the oppossums. I guess my dad got up early to remove the bodies before we woke up. We didn’t fence him in, but he didn’t seem to need it. Now days though, big no-no.
Shika, I am cat sitting, along with my cats. I have my son’s cat here. He and his GF found this poor little thing, badly, badly abused. She is such a sweetie, but still very timid and defensive. Can’t blame her though after what the poor little thing went through! I still miss having a dog and still want to get one. It’s been 3 1/2 years now without a dog. That’s too long for me. Although, the nice thing about cats, they are pretty self-sufficient and mine are very pleasant and sweet.
Thank you Lonewolf, of course my brother’s cat is still AWOL. There are buildings though and I saw him last weekend. I put his food on the front porch during the day, but I think he must be living off the field mice. Oh well, my brother said I could keep him outside. (We have skunks, so if he wants to eat it must be during the day.)
I think all cats are sweet. I love dogs too, but have only had one dog that I remember.
The pet store I shop at has a big white cat named Charlotte who sits on the counter. She is a purring machine. She looks like a long haired Mua, and is about the same age.
Shika Theyare marsupials and as cute as a button! Quantas airlines used to use them in their commercials, come to think of it, I haven’t seen a Quantas commercial in years, but then I don’t see that many commercials anymore. My cousin and her family went to Australia a few years ago, and she held one. She said it was adorable!
Okay…for those of you who prepare or consume grits, be advised that, when dropped on our orange shag carpet, or left to dry on the card table that we use for breakfast, grits become rather rock-like.
Shika, good to see you too! I kept missing you.
Dry, I’ll help ye make the scurvy dog walk the plank if need be.
Okay Hymenoxis, y’all watch those grits now, ya hear?
Is long as you are up hymenoxis another snifter of brandy would be nice. If you could just slide the bottle in my direction when you get done chiseling I would be most grateful and pour yourself a snifter if you choose.
Shika dinner was wonderful. My wife made mushroom thyme risotto and served it with colossal prawns cooked with olive oil, garlic, and white wine. We also had perfectly cooked peas and one of my homemade baguettes, served with a 90+ rated chardonnay. Very nice.
Rum casks have their own aura. One knows, when approaching a rum cask, that it is a work of art. I’m quite aware of where my broom handles and mop heads are, relatively speaking.
Seems to be the case. She’s taken my kitchen renovation money and dug a hole. I wanted a nice Viking cooker and some granite countertops, but was over-ridden.
Galveston and SPI have become a “don’t go there” place for us lately. T’was a time it was fun to watch the young people, but no more. They’re crazy these days.
My favorite bit of Galveston is “Colonel Bubbie’s”, a military surplus shop with cats wandering about the place and china from WWII destroyers. It’s a claustrophobic, mildew-smelling, lovely place for folks that like that sort of thing.
Hy If there is history there, I will endure the musty smell. I love history, always have! All time periods. That also happened to be my best subject in school, straight A’s always. I hope some time soon to get back to reading some good old history stories, My favorite time periods were the Revolutionary War, Civil War and WW2 and anything about the American Indians.
Dry, I used a high pressure water hose to clean up. Hymenoxis was worried about the wet carpet so I got the vac out to get rid of the water. Did you read the above comments? Skerk!
*Hy *sounds like you passed up a good deal! I do that too sometimes.
I was googling the East German jacket, because I’m not familiar with that. From the ‘60’s? Which tyoe was it? I saw 2, one true camoflage and one just a dull looking green.

I see you’ve entered the silly part of sleep deprivation.

Grog is your being UP! TMI?
Grog, Doc, Lonewolf & Cleo ~ remember you are not old enough to be dirty old men. You can still be Cyber-Slapped! Oh and so can Bunnyface! Though I would probably have to ask forgiveness.

Dawn there is an old gold mine that was near Mt. Baker. I was looking up info on it to be accurate in depicting it in a book I am writing.
Shika I wasn’t looking for my book. I was looking for info to put into it.
Ooops! Premium Member over 14 years ago
Actually, I got the impression it was real bulls. Was it as much fun as it sounds like it was scary? Oh and WHY?
It’s my sister’s cat, but she died, so I take care of him. He doesn’t like people much, which is okay because I don’t like him much. Hee~hee~hee. But he is around 20 years old, so I am nice to him.

BTW - Can you picture the others on a real bull? I don’t think you could get them drunk enough!!!!!!

Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
cleo I was teasing you. It is how you worded your sentence.
Sorry I missed you Dry
That’s why I’m glad I have a cat. It is raining out now, and I can stay indoors!

It’s good that you are nice to the cat, LuvH8.
My backyard is completely fenced and the dogs can be let out on their own. They like when I’m out with them. :^)

Mua Is looking out the window. He likes that he is my height when he does that while I work on the computer. I wouldn’t mind letting him out into a well-fenced yard, but cats are different.
My neighbour’s cat fell off their 6th storey balcony and died at the vets with a broken back. It gives me nightmares.

How was your day JFri?
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Have you had dinner JFri?
Ooops! Premium Member over 14 years ago
Lonewolf- Hee~hee~ha~ha~ha~ha~haaaa! That comment about it being good I am nice to the cat struck me as funny.
I had a dog when I was a kid (well I only liked/remember one) he used to sleep in the middle of my bed. He would sleep outside with us when we were kids and protect us from the oppossums. I guess my dad got up early to remove the bodies before we woke up. We didn’t fence him in, but he didn’t seem to need it. Now days though, big no-no.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
I’m taking a break from homework today to clean my apartment. But I may read some tonight so I don’t fall behind.
COWBOY7 over 14 years ago
LuvH8, I said that because some people would just continue to be mean regardless. I think it is nice of you.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
HEY JFRI! HOW YA’ DOIN’ BUDDY?
Shika I’m here now!
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Hi Dry Where were you?
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
I like you avatar. Too cute. A bear behind.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
I thought you said you were here Dry.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Shika, I am cat sitting, along with my cats. I have my son’s cat here. He and his GF found this poor little thing, badly, badly abused. She is such a sweetie, but still very timid and defensive. Can’t blame her though after what the poor little thing went through! I still miss having a dog and still want to get one. It’s been 3 1/2 years now without a dog. That’s too long for me. Although, the nice thing about cats, they are pretty self-sufficient and mine are very pleasant and sweet.
Ooops! Premium Member over 14 years ago
Thank you Lonewolf, of course my brother’s cat is still AWOL. There are buildings though and I saw him last weekend. I put his food on the front porch during the day, but I think he must be living off the field mice. Oh well, my brother said I could keep him outside. (We have skunks, so if he wants to eat it must be during the day.)
COWBOY7 over 14 years ago
My show is on now. I’ll be in and out during commercial breaks.
Have Fun, All
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
I think all cats are sweet. I love dogs too, but have only had one dog that I remember.
The pet store I shop at has a big white cat named Charlotte who sits on the counter. She is a purring machine. She looks like a long haired Mua, and is about the same age.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Shika, That’s my bear from a very dear friend. She has her back turned to the public!
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Shika I will probably be using some more panda bears later on.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Your bear from a very dear friend? You mean she lives with you?
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Do you have a lot of Panda photos? They are cute.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Shika heaven’s no, you mean the bear? LOL!

Dry from your bear to my bare.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Cleo Let’s hoist a Bookers on that!
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Dry You said “That’s *my* bear.” So I thought she lived with you.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Shika Just a few from my friend today in an email. But they are cute!
cleokaya over 14 years ago
Dry that is exactly what I need right now. A tip of my glass as I toast “To you my dear.”
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
cleo Two bare bear behinds are too too much.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
cleokaya over 14 years ago
Shika are you talking about yours and Drys, because if you are they are both cute, a little fuzzy though.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
I’m told that Koalas are not bears, but marsupials. Whatever I think they are cute!
This one has a job helping kangaroos cross the street!
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
I like Dry’s Panda though, even if it is camera shy.
cleokaya over 14 years ago
Dinner time.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Time to do dishes then. I’ll catch you later Dry when I return for my night-time ritual.
Ooops! Premium Member over 14 years ago
You’ve got me counting lines, instead of reading comments! One person has 36 lines over on Agnes. Gee~Whiz!!!!!
Lot’s of Luv and Good Wishes, in case I don’t cross paths with you soon.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Cleo You are too sweet, my friend!
Shika my panda is not shy, she is making a statement! Get it? :-D
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Shika Theyare marsupials and as cute as a button! Quantas airlines used to use them in their commercials, come to think of it, I haven’t seen a Quantas commercial in years, but then I don’t see that many commercials anymore. My cousin and her family went to Australia a few years ago, and she held one. She said it was adorable!

hymenoxis over 14 years ago
Okay…for those of you who prepare or consume grits, be advised that, when dropped on our orange shag carpet, or left to dry on the card table that we use for breakfast, grits become rather rock-like.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
What are you polishing Hymenoxsis?
COWBOY7 over 14 years ago
Good evening, Hymenoxis
How are you doing,sir?

I think I had Grits once this week. I’ll make sure to remind the others.
That hard, eh?
commicaddict over 14 years ago
AAAAARRRRRRRRR, hymenoxis, did ye put away all me empty RUM barrels?
COWBOY7 over 14 years ago
Hymenoxis, I’ve got an air chisel with a portable air compressor. lol
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Dry Do you know who you are talking too? Of course he is looking after Joy! Aren’t you Pirate?
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Careful with that beautiful orange shag Hymenoxsis.
carmy over 14 years ago
Shika, good to see you too! I kept missing you. Dry, I’ll help ye make the scurvy dog walk the plank if need be. Okay Hymenoxis, y’all watch those grits now, ya hear?
cleokaya over 14 years ago
Hello all. Dinner and dishes are done. Just waiting on LilG* and her after dinner routine, before we watch a movie.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
HI HY BLAME AKENTA FOR THE GRITS SPILL!
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Oh, I guess a rip here and there adds to the ambiance of the place.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
And that card table needs replacing anyways.

Ahoy Cleo!

(Don’t poke a hole in the rum barrel, Hymenoxsis)

Cleo. so far so good. we had a nice dinner and watched some Kipper. Kipper the Dog. How about you?
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Hi cleo How was dinner?
cleokaya over 14 years ago
Is long as you are up hymenoxis another snifter of brandy would be nice. If you could just slide the bottle in my direction when you get done chiseling I would be most grateful and pour yourself a snifter if you choose.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
How are you Hymenoxsis by the way?
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
(polishes brass monkeys, mable entryway, crystal ashtrays)
cleokaya over 14 years ago
Shika dinner was wonderful. My wife made mushroom thyme risotto and served it with colossal prawns cooked with olive oil, garlic, and white wine. We also had perfectly cooked peas and one of my homemade baguettes, served with a 90+ rated chardonnay. Very nice.
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
I hate to be a party pooper, but I have to get to bed early tonight.
Have a good time guys. Nice to see some familiar faces again!
Come back real soon, ya hear?
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
Rum casks have their own aura. One knows, when approaching a rum cask, that it is a work of art. I’m quite aware of where my broom handles and mop heads are, relatively speaking.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Brass monkeys, who has brass monkeys?
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
(mop, swab)
Shikamoo Premium Member over 14 years ago
Sounds delicious cleo
Nice work *HY*!

Good Night Shika!
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
I’m quite fond of rum, if we’re speaking of spirits. A fine drink, and easy next morning.
carmy over 14 years ago
Do you need some help, Hymenoxis?
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
Less of a problem when lying on the beach next morning.
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
Always, Carmy….always.
carmy over 14 years ago
Hymenoxis, are you going to hit the beach on Spring Break? Cowabunga!
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
I’m here Pirate!
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
I find Bourbon and Scotch leave me with issues, and even moreso gin….
cleokaya over 14 years ago
comicaddict, if you have Barbancourt 15 year on board. I will take a snifter.
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
Carm…mamma’s hired a contractor, and they’re digging Monday to put in an effing swimming pool.
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
I used to like to go to South Padre and watch the young people, but not so much anymore. It’s all tattoos and thongs.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Hy Swimming pool? Oh you lucky dog you! And you don’t want one? Oh yeah, she puts it in and you have to maintain it. Got it! ( I think)
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
PIRATE calls for me, and now he’s gone! Cripes!
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
Seems to be the case. She’s taken my kitchen renovation money and dug a hole. I wanted a nice Viking cooker and some granite countertops, but was over-ridden.
commicaddict over 14 years ago
AAAAAARRRRRRRR, cleo, we only have th’ very finest on board!
Dry, and how be ye tonight?
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
(mop, scrub)
carmy over 14 years ago
Hymenoxis, you don’t want the swimming pool? Oh yes, Spring Break has really gone wild at SP and SPI. Dry, your Panda is HUGE!
carmy over 14 years ago
Hymenoxis, I meant Corpus and Port Isabel.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Hy what can I say? You must be a generous man, sir!
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Hy or madly in love! :-)
carmy over 14 years ago
You’d think she would want a remade kitchen. I know I would.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
carmy SP and SPI?What does that stand for?
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Ay Pirate things be fine! Thanks for asking, though I could use a nice rum and coke!
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
Galveston and SPI have become a “don’t go there” place for us lately. T’was a time it was fun to watch the young people, but no more. They’re crazy these days.
cleokaya over 14 years ago
SP - South Padre, SPI - South Padre Island, would be my guess.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Where is Cleo?
carmy over 14 years ago
Dry, South Padre and South Padre Island. Basically the same thing. One part of the island is by Corpus Christi and the lower part is by Port Isabel.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Carmy ain’t she though? She is prepared for anything! You don’t mess with this Big Mama!
cleokaya over 14 years ago
South Padre has a nude beach about 5 miles up the beach past the end of the road. You have to drive on the beach to get to it.
carmy over 14 years ago
I haven’t been to Galveston in years, a lot of years.
cleokaya over 14 years ago
Movie time. See ya all!
carmy over 14 years ago
Dry, maybe she’s Kung Fu Panda! Cleo, get out! A nude beach? I didn’t know that, but of course you would. Snerk!
carmy over 14 years ago
Enjoy the movie, Cleo!
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Carmy Yes Cleo would KNOW about that, wouldn’t he? LOL! Kung Fu Panda? ROFLMAO! No, I do have Kung Fu Panda though! Thanks to my dear friend!
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
What happened to *Hy and Pirate**? Yea, they leave a mess and here we are!
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
My favorite bit of Galveston is “Colonel Bubbie’s”, a military surplus shop with cats wandering about the place and china from WWII destroyers. It’s a claustrophobic, mildew-smelling, lovely place for folks that like that sort of thing.
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
A mess?
carmy over 14 years ago
I ain’t cleaning no mess! Maybe we can get a fire hose and just wash it all away.
hymenoxis over 14 years ago

Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Hy If there is history there, I will endure the musty smell. I love history, always have! All time periods. That also happened to be my best subject in school, straight A’s always. I hope some time soon to get back to reading some good old history stories, My favorite time periods were the Revolutionary War, Civil War and WW2 and anything about the American Indians.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Carmy what did you spill, girl? Okay, what can I do to help? PLEASE say “Stay our of my way!” LOL!
carmy over 14 years ago
Dry, I used a high pressure water hose to clean up. Hymenoxis was worried about the wet carpet so I got the vac out to get rid of the water. Did you read the above comments? Skerk!
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
Dry-
It’s a fascinating place. I found a complete set of Cheif”s mess china from a WWII destroyer, but was foolish and didn’t buy it.
I wear an East German camoflage jacket that I bought there for ten bucks…
hymenoxis over 14 years ago
(sweep, sweep)
carmy over 14 years ago
Hymenoxis, was it some nice looking china?
commicaddict over 14 years ago
AAAAAARRRRRRRR, Dry, here be yer RUM & Coke!
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
*Hy *sounds like you passed up a good deal! I do that too sometimes. I was googling the East German jacket, because I’m not familiar with that. From the ‘60’s? Which tyoe was it? I saw 2, one true camoflage and one just a dull looking green.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member over 14 years ago
Thank you so much Pirate! Been waiting long enough, though!
commicaddict over 14 years ago
AAAAARRRRRRR, sorry fer th’ slow service, Dry! I be tendin’ ta Joy’s need fer RUM!

Good night Carmy. Hello cleo, Dry & all.
I woke up in time for the cross-over.

Hello Grog. So many here seem to be able to nap. I feel miserable if I try.
GROG Premium Member over 14 years ago
I nodded off around 8:30 locally cleo. I needed it, but I slept so long I wouldn’t call that a nap exactly.
GROG Premium Member over 14 years ago
I feel much better now!
cleokaya over 14 years ago
I like Galveston. I have been there several times, to my cousin’s weekend home and also to board a cruise ship. Some good restaurants as well.
