Orange juice and blueberry muffins coming your way, LuvH8.

Why is he riding a unicycle? …and is it a motorized unicycle?

jdoc that would be a uniped wouldn’t it? (lessped??)

less control anyhow.

Hi, JohnnyD.

I don’t think it is motorized, (that is a scary thought a unicycle going down the highway at 60mph)

Good Morning Johnnydoc5, UncleWhy & LW18

Thank you Lonewolf

Thanks Lonewolf

I guess I’ll bring my own Bloody Mary.

Good Morning Woodeye.

My apologies, sir! One Bloody Mary coming your way!

i’ve cracked open the Crown Royal - since i’m out of dark ales.

Thanks! I needed a nightcap! Bedtime now….

The strong young man at the construction site was bragging that he could outdo anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of making fun of one of the older workmen. After several minutes, the older worker had had enough.

“Why don’t you put your money where your mouth is?” he said. “I will bet a week’s wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that building that you won’t be able to wheel back.”

“You’re on, old man,” the young guy replied.

The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then he turned to the young man and said, “Alright. Get in.”

I wouldn’t mind a quick belt before heading off to ZLand, Yguy.

Perfect for a bedtime joke, LuvH8. With that I will say……….

Good Night LuvH8, Yguy & Everyone

P&L

g’night Lonewolf

Good Night Everyone ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hello Lewreader, Akenta, Rac0308, Doc T, Grog, Digital Frog & Everyone!

g’night LuvH8

LUVH8 No telling “Old” Jokes. I tried to renew my out ot state expired motorcycle license and DMV told me my eyes were too old,

LONEWOLF Waistband be blasted, give me one of everything, except the decaf.

Morning TRIBE! April 15 and the treasury is bulging.

clock on the wall says 3:50 and it’s way past my bedtime. so i’ll be making a “z” or three for the next little while. payday, so it will be a busy morning. hi Dry, DocT, Grog, DigiFrog, cleo, bunnyface, Marg, Rmom, Akenta (did Lonewolf remember your grits?) Lewreader, Rac, WoodEye, Shika, Marg, Carmy, celecca… (i know i’ve missed someone. sorry.) hope everyone is as well as can be hoped. i’ve missed yappin with y’all.

Good morning. Wow another day with two breakfasts. yyguy, of course lonewolf remembered my grits. Elmer’s had a pretty impressive menu too, but I don’t think they are licensed to sell nuclear coffee.

good morning Johnny, Woodeye, yguy, Akenta, Lewreader, JFri, and Fellow Baby when you get here!

Looks like Wink just got tricked back into the circus life!

Good Morning FELLOW BABY

Good Morning, JFRI, Lonewolf, LuvH8, Akenta, Woodyeye, Lewreader, Johnny, yyyguy and any one else I may have missed!

Good Morning Tribe

Lewreader, one of everything coming up!

Maybe Wink can get a five-o-clock shadow going on to look a little meaner?

Hello to Akenta, Lewreader, Grog and anyone else I might have missed.

Good morning, tribe! Lewreader - Did you check out my comment on Lio yesterday?

Good Morning, Rmom

Good Morning, Rmom & Grog

Hi, Grog & Terry!

He’s on automatic pilates….

Good Morning All!

Good Morning, DFrog!

Good Morning Doc & DFrog.

Good morning, Doctor Toon! A little late this AM?

Hey there Grog, Doc, Rmom, and the king of Puns, Digital!

Good Morning, JFri, yyyguy, johnny, WoodEye, Lewreader, Akenta, Dry, Grog, Rmom, DF and Doc Thanks for breaky at Elmer’s, JFri!

Why is Wink holding his arms out if he’s riding a unicycle?

Good Morning, Carmy!

Good Morning All. Somehow the macho image diminishes a bit on a unicycle.

Good Morning, cleo!

Good morning, Doc, DFrog, Dry, Carmy & Cleo!

Carmy, for balance! :-) Good morning Girl!

Howdy Cleo!

Good Morning Doc, Grog, Rmom & Dry. I hope you all are well today.

As well as can be expected for an overcast & wet day. I want to go back to bed!

Cleo - I was somewhat surprised to read the following news today: A nationwide study reveals Wichita as a “best kept secret” when it comes to food. Wichita was named among ten top cities for foodies. The study based its findings on unique and gourmet restaurants. (The complete article is found at KAKE.com) We do have a lot of restaurants in Wichita, and even though I prefer “comfort foods” there is a wide range of cuisines available, if you know where to look.

Don’t rub it in, Doc! :-(

Grog - It is starting to cloud up here now, and the storms are supposed to hit my area in the wee hours of the morning. I hope nothing severe, so the weather alarm won’t wake me up.

Beautiful day here, Grog! Of course, I’m at work.

Rmom, when you live in an area, the natural tendency seems to be to not think much about it, you know what I mean. People find this area amazing, but I’m so used to it, I take it for granted.

Doc, I don’t have your ability to fall asleep as soon as I hit the pillow. Even if I do fall asleep within the space of a half hour, there are times I wake up and can be wide awake for hours.

Dry - Since I don’t spend time in many other large cities to be able to compare the restaurant selection, it hadn’t occurred to me that Wichita was ranked that high. I know there are certain restaurants my siblings who moved away, try to make a point of eating at when they come back, because they can’t get them where they live.

Good Morning Cleo!

It’s a beautiful day here, I’m going to do some yard work before the weather changes. BBL

Good Morning Everyone!

Good Morning Doc T

Good Morning, LuvH8!

Good Morning Grog!

Good Morning LuvH8 & Cleo

Have a good sleep, Doc. See you later!

Good Morning Lonewolf

Good Night Doc T

@Lewreader, I hope you forgive a lame (but original) “old” joke.

A few years back, I went to the eye doctor for the regular checkup, and he told me I am getting presbyopia (“old eyes”). My immediate response as a presbyter (priest/”elder”) was, “That means my eyes are finally catching up to my vocation!”

Good Morning, Bunnyface(bmonk).

That is an old one but a keeper, Bunnyface(bmonk)

Good Morning Bunnyface! ~ (groans)

A truck driver was heading down the highway when he saw a priest at the side of the road. Feeling it was his duty, he stopped to give the priest a ride.

A short time later, he saw a lawyer with a briefcase on the side of the road and aimed his truck at him. At the last second, he thought of the priest with him and realized he couldn’t run over the lawyer, so he swerved, but he heard a thump anyway. Looking back as he drove on, he didn’t see anything. He began to apologize for his behavior to the priest. “I’m sorry, Father. I barely missed that lawyer at the side of the road.”

But the priest said, “Don’t worry, son. I got him with my door.”

Good Morning, bunnyface

An oldie but a goodie, LuvH8

Good one, LuvH8

Working hard or hardly working, Grog?

My boss just left for the day. There are some things I’m waiting on that I won’t get until Monday. Things will be pretty quiet around here until my meeting tomorrow afternoon at our tech center. Thems the breaks!

The good news is, I won’t be in Monday or Turesday!

You have those days off?

Business Meeting = blechy

Bye for Now!

Yup!

Good afternoon, tribe.

Love Wink on the unicycle. Doesn’t pay to mess with a bear that can keep up with motorcycles.

Hello, Saucy!

Sorry Grog, I got side tracked with RL.

Good Afternoon, Saucy.

Good afternoon all! In a rare change of events, I have landed a day off from classes. Lucky me. I will have to go out and do something I think.

Happy day for you, Johnny.

How did that happen, Johnny?

Just dropping by to say hello. I’m going out for what is left of the day.

Sorry I disappeared last night. I needed a break from the computer and sat in my rocking chair with peaceful music and a good book to read.

A good book being any book I don’t have to study!

LOL bunnyface Your eyes are presbyters now.

Enjoy your day off johnny!

Thanks for breakfast at Elymer’s JFri!

Have a good day everyone!

Hi & Bye Shika

A quiet afternoon again. Beautiful weather here today.

In the 80s and very sunny!

You should be outside, Lonewolf!

I have been outside most of the time. I stopped in for…………………………………..

are you ready……………………………………..

Grog–Headed back out now. I’ll probably be back on after you go home.

Usually my Thursdays are pretty light as it is, but today the class I normally have ended on Tuesday, so I won’t have class next Tuesday either, but I did pick up a shift at work tonight for a friend, so I will have that tonight.

See you later, Lonewolf

I’ve now got a Pepsi on ice for the drive home!

Hi johnny! How are you? You’re off and I’m working! Beautiful day here too.

hello everyone. feel good using what is called an ice machine for my rt sholder. rmon we saw too about food place my husband brother and wife would come to the first one mentiond they place pin there since no nu-way where they live i still has pain thinking little better now have sleep on back rt arm too swoolen. thanks to everyone for good wishes.

Glad your feeling a little better, Kab

I’m home now, Lonewolf and now having another ice cold PEPSI!

Kab ~ It sounds like the ice machine is a very good thing, take it easy and continue to get better. (But you might want to play for all the sympathy you can get from your husband (giggling) ).

Did you Happy Dance because I typed Bye For Now?

LuvH8, I Happy Danced because I am now 1 day closer to a 4-day long week-end.

Oh!!!

See my response on BB. I really wasn’t trying to be mean.

Good Evening, All I am watching how jelly beans are made. Exciting, no?

Good Evening Everyone.

Hi, LuvH8, Kab, Grog & Celecca

Hey, Lonewolf!

Saw you had a Pepsi earlier. Pepsi is definitely underrated down here in SC. Coke (“co-cola”) is the drink of choice here. I grew up with Pepsi. Love it!

Good Evening!

Hello Grog, Celecca & Lonewolf.

Grog ~ responded to response on BB.

Celecca ~ Details! Details!

It is so good to be here the same time you are, Celecca.

I was telling Grog, I’m a Pepsiaholic!

LuvH8 Jelly beans or Pepsi?

Good evening! Slow day under the BT, but with all this nice weather, completely understandable. Kab - Nu-way is the place my brothers like to go when they are in town. B & C Creations is great for BBQ (Washington and I think 2nd St.), although we went to Nekkid Bubba’s a few weeks ago, and it was delicious. B & C serve buffet style and it is all you can eat, so that makes it a better deal if you’ve got a big eater. Even though I’m not, I do like being able to put just what I want on my plate, and look at it first before deciding. (Only open at lunch, and not everyday.) Sonic isn’t all over the country yet, & my sister loves their onion rings.

Good evening, Rmom!

Hi, Terry!

LuvH8

To you & Doc with the Happy Dances!

How are you doing, Rmom?

Hello Rmom,

Regarding jokes about mental illness:

Most of the people I have met (and the people they have met) use humor as a way of dealing with their mental illness. I certainly do.

As long as the jokes don’t put someone down for mental illness, especially by implying that being mentally ill is the same as being stupid, I don’t mind.

Some people and organizations are strictly no jokes/humor. But I think it is a case of:

Blessed are those who can laugh at themselves, they will never cease to be amused.

Celecca ~ Jelly Beans!

Hello Celecca, Lonewolf & Rmom

Lonewolf ~ Thank you!

Do you have a bunny one for when Bunnyface gets back? What would work for Grog? (I think I’ve started a trend.)

Well - a mommy jelly bean and a daddy jelly bean get together and make jelly bean sprouts. Then,….

Jelly beans are made from a slurry of corn syrup and other ingredient and poured into jelly bean-shaped cornstarch molds. They dry for 24 hours, then are dumped out of their molds. Then they are steamed and rolled in sugar so they won’t stick to each other. Then they are dumped into something that reminds me of a cement mixer, and colors, flavors, and wax are poured over them until they are brightly colored and shiny.

There’s your educational moment for the day!

Terry - Fighting a migraine, so I may not be as yappy tonight, unless I can master it. It was coming on earlier, took a pill, but it is starting to come back. I’m hoping some supper will help, so trying to eat a quick bite.

Rmom ~ I liked your joke yesterday! Really anyone who serves strawberries with manure is the one who should be locked away. Blechy!

LuvH8

Yes I think you have! And I guess I have another comic on my agenda now.

Rmom

I feel for you. I used to get migraines once a week or more. Now I’m down to maybe one every six weeks or so. Don’t know why, but am happy about it.

Rmom ~ Icing my brain helps my headaches. I hope you feel better soon.

Celecca ~ Thank you for the education. But now, do I still want to eat my jelly beans?

LuvH8, I’ve just created a photo bucket account and am now uploading some photos.

Lonewolf, it’s almost Miller Time for me!

Lonewolf ~ you used to read that one, I saw your name in the comments several months ago. I just recently read all of the strips and I like it.

(((((Rmom)))))–Hope the food helps. I have been getting headaches from the new prescription and food sometimes helps.

Yes, LuvH8 - Jelly Beans are not icky. The red ones are my faves. Enjoy!

Night, All

Grog, have you got an extra one there for me, sir?

Celecca, I thought you saw me and took off again! LOL

;^)

She did!

Good night, Celecca!

LuvH8, it’s been a while, but yes I did frequent it at one time.

Thank you Celecca I like all of them except the white ones. Nobody I know likes the white ones.

Grog, are you grog?

Lonewolf, I hadn’t noticed any recent comments, so I didn’t think you were still reading it. Doc T said I would like it, wonder if he regrets that after today. (maniacal giggles)

Good Night Celecca, sleep well.

LuvH8, if you are referring to photbucket, NO. Some S.O.G. beat me to it.

Lonewolf, here you go.

Goddnight, Celecca.

Thanks for letting me know, LuvH8! I didn’t think it was offensive, or I wouldn’t have posted it. But sometimes people don’t see it the same way I do. celecca - I’ve had worse migraines & more often. The doctor put me on a beta blocker which keeps them to less than 10 a month, and the Imitrex usually knocks them out. Most don’t take a 2nd pill, but this one might. I’ve got certain triggers that set them off, and I can’t do much to avoid all of them.

Terry I am just getting ready to close down for the night. Was just checking for messages at my other home.

I DID NOT run away because it was you. Have a good evening.

Fake indignant huffiness, exaggerated stomp offstage, hit red “X”

Thank you, Grog!

Stopping by to say hello to you all. I hope that your day is going well.

Celecca –Good Night. Hope to see you, tomorrow!

Rmom ~ I would of let you know yesterday, but I was trying to think how to phrase it right. I have a list of ‘WARNING SIGNS OF INSANITY’ I am thinking of posting one every morning before I go to bed. I thought it would be amusing (especially Lewreader’s reactions)

Grog ~ What name are you using on Photobucket, and did you know the person who took ‘grog’ has no pictures? Very Rude!

Hello LW18! Did you learn anything at school today?

Doc sure is running late tonight. I hope all is well.

Hey Grog! Sorry I missed you Celecca and rmom!

Fellow Baby, Please tell me Miller time isn’t about MIller Beer! I thought you had MUCH better taste! :-)

My chocolate bunny has no tail! I am going to put a hole in his back side and fill him with m&m’s. Then I can rattle bunny!

LuvH8, I think I just got bored with some of the toons at that other strip. But no matter how many other strips we try, we ALWAYS come here.

Dry - I’m here. Once the caffiene in the Imitrex kicks in and the migraine leaves, I’ll be much more yappy. That was the main symptom for why mine are classified as migraines - when I have them, I’m not social.

Hey, Fellow Baby! I most certainly do, but I will take Miller over Pabst Blue Ribbon, Old Milwaukee or Schlitz!

Good call, Grog! LOL

Good Evening, Doc.

Rmom, I just ate something too, but I think mine just started getting worse. lol Go figure.

LuvH8 - Seeing as both of my parents had dementia, I’m not unaware of mental health symptoms to watch out for. There were times I was concerned that I might be getting dementia, but our counselor assured me that it was because I had so many “irons in the fire”. I do notice my memory (both long & short-term) has slipped considerably during my adult years. But I am of the belief that no one is completely normal, some are just more abnormal than others.

Howdy Doc*! How is your back after all that moving of furniture?

Hi Doc T, are you enjoying your coffee? BTW ~ What color of paint?

Yes, I know what you mean Lonewolf, I wish there was some way of only reading the entertaining strips/panels by any given cartoonist. Especially the panels, where there isn’t a story line to follow.

Terry - I hope mine isn’t contagious!

I don’t think so, Rmom. :^)

Rmom i”ve been fortunate, never had migranes, but I have a friend who does. She’s such a sweet soul, and it knocks her down for quite awhile, she gets really ill with it. Only hits her a couple of times a year, but when it does,it’s bad. I think hers is related to stress.

You need to take it easy more often, Doc!

Hi everyone!

Doc, I don’t think so, my friend.

Wolfangil has tried to get me to relax for ……………..wow, 14 years we have been together and it hasn’t worked!

Doc - I’ve heard that saying before, and I think my mom might have tried to pin it on us. I guess that’s one time having several siblings helped - in comparison to the others, I was the “good kid” - well, except for about seven years….

Rmom ~ This is supposed to be a funny list. I’m sorry about your husband & family, but glad you know the signs. A lot of times physical ailments (often vitamin or mineral deficiency) cause symptoms that mimic some mental illnesses. I have to take Calcium, Vitamin D, iron and fish oil daily as well as my medications. If I don’t my symptoms get worse.

rmom My mom had migraines too. Not any more, for quite a few years now.

Hi Shika.

Hi Terry

Doc Your Goodwill sells different stuff than here. Mostly clothes in our stores, although I haven’t been in all of them.

I’m having a really late dinner here. The phone keeps ringing, and I was trying to bake. I finally got the loaf in the oven, and now I’m having my first course.

Dry How was your day?

LuvH8, here’s a link to my uploads http://s1044.photobucket.com/home/Grogs_Photos/recentuploads

Lonewolf, are you ready for another?

Hello Shika.

Doc, I’m afraid I can’t blame the Monkeys for this. I can blame my parents though!

Hi Shika!

Hello, Again, Shika!

Yes, Grog! Thank you.

Hello, Doc!

Doc I tried to clear out my books a few years ago. I gave most of my dozens of books to Goodwill, and a few to the church that were my dad’s.

Then i found out that I was going to seminary, and wish I had some books back. I have three book caases full, and more stacked.

Here you go, Lonewolf.

Shika - Thankfully with the meds, my migraines are pretty manageable. Only once in a great while will I have to lie down until the meds kicks in. I’m hoping that sooner or later that I won’t have the hormonal trigger, and then it will only be stress, lack of sleep, lack of food, cold, or caffeine withdrawal to cause them. Dry - Your friend’s sound similar to mine. Mine seem the most triggered by adreneline (sp?) - good or bad stress, as well.

Nice pics, Grog. I’ll need to check them out again later.

What’s new Dry?

LOL We all blame our parents sometimes or other. Even when we love them, which I do. No kids to blame here, but Mua can try my patience at times!

Bye Celleca

I don’t get migraines. Just back aches.

Thanks, Lonewolf

I am a novice with a digital camara - especially a camara so small I can hide in my fist. Some room for improvement, but I’m still awed by some of my sunrise shots.

LuvH8 A funny list? Sounds great! (The headache is going away, so I’ll start hunting up jokes.)

Where’s Mr. Bookers?

I just noticed that the other wheel in the strip belongs to killer’s bike. It makes more sense now.

Okay, back to the comments!

Yes, Rmom a funny list, but it is pretty long so I think I will only post a couple at a time.

Possibly, I will post a couple of these at night also:

WARNING: Consumption of alcohol may cause you to tell the same boring story over and over again until your friends want to SMASH YOUR HEAD IN.

WARNING: Consumption of alcohol may cause you to thay shings like thish.

Grog ~ Do you have any Pepsi for those of us who don’t drink alcohol?

WARNING: Consumption of alcohol may make other people more interesting to converse with.

Grog I like your pictures. I am probably going to have to put some real pictures on my page. I wonder if I can figure out my sister’s digital camera?

LuvH8

After enough of them, you can’t read the warnings anymore.

Grog ~ Are you saying we are only interesting when you are drunk?

WARNING: No One Is Ugly after 2 AM with the right amount of alcohol consumption.

Grog

For the one who has to listen?

A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.

Not in your case LuvH8. But there were a lot of people I used to work with who were more interesting either after I consumed enough alcohol - they did - or both!

Of course, Lonewolf!

rmom Her good times are good times, and no migraines. it’s when she is overwhelmed that the headaches kick in. Then she gets sick to her stomach, etc. I feel so bad for her .It’s a chemical imbalance in her system. That the doctors do know. They just don’t know how to fix it to cure her. They keep tryiing different things for her.

Thank you, LuvH8

My problem with such a small camara, is making sure that the picture is properly aligned with the horizon. Many turn out lobsided, even though the shots are properly aligned before I take the photo.

Sometimes when I get a bad headache, I just loosen my ponytail and then, poof! No no more headache!

Hi Doc! I saw your comments about the Goodwill store. We have some here with just clothes and some with furniture, bicycles, yard equipment, etc.

Your welcome Grog, you should really look at Yyyguy and Rmom’s photos, they have some really beautiful ones.

Rmom~ I like your lilac avatars, but I want to see bigger pictures! Please.

Dry - I am very thankful (for the answers to prayer) that I didn’t get ill during the whole time I was so overwhelmed with getting Mom’s house emptied. But it is very frustrating to be at an event that I want to be at, and then getting one of those relentless migraines. Thankfully, it doesn’t happen very often, since the doctor put me on a beta blocker. (Atenolol - a blood pressure med, but helps to keep my adrenaline level more even, even though I don’t have high blood pressure.)

Okay, I have filled my bunny with m&m’s now he gets rattled and expels pastel colored excretions.

There were these two cows, chatting over the fence between their fields. The first cow said, “I tell you, this mad-cow-disease is really pretty scary. They say it is spreading fast; I heard it hit some cows down on the Johnson Farm.” The other cow replies, “I ain’t worried, it don’t affect us ducks.”

LuvH8, I would if I could search by user.

Doc, you must have the patience that I don’t have. I just donate. I’ve never been to a flea market and I’ve never had a garage sale.

Grog, you can search by user. Click on “people” in the search box.

Lonewolf, I think I’ll have one more before I turn in. How ‘bout you?

Doc Good for you. I’m learning to travel more lightly through life. I may need to if I end up travelling.

Alcohol gives me a headache. I only drink virtual cocktails, Pirate’s rum and the occasional virtual Booker’s.

If I get a virtual hangover, I drink Doc’s nuclear coffee!

Hi Shika!

LOL. Loosen your ponytail. Thats’ a good one.

Doc, my brother had a flea market stand for years before he died. He sold Elvis memorabilia among other items. Being that he was in a wheel chair at the time my sisters and I would help him out on the weekends. You’re right, it was interesting to say the least.

Hey Grog! How’s my home state? Come heck or high water, I am road tripping to Texas this summer!!

Carmy, Yard sales are a LOT of work, did two, now my kids want to do a big one.” Oh we can make a lot of money!” Yeah right! You figure what you make against the time put into it, I DON”T THINK SO!

Shika, and it’s true! LOL, I never realize how tight I tie up my hair. BTW, I’m blessed to even have hair, it has thinned out a bit from meds, etc. It used to be very thick.

I’ve been donating, not shopping too. Not that I’m proud, it is usually because I’m in a hurry when I’m in town. I was thinking today that I need to get my 20 year old to start shopping for his clothes at Goodwill. He latches onto a certain style, and doesn’t want to change, even though his are wearing out. I was ironing patches on his khaki cargo shorts this morning, so he could wear them. His are elastic waist and about knee length, neither of which I can find new anymore.

Shikamoo said, about 8 orders ago

“LOL bunnyface Your eyes are presbyters now.”

As long as nobody tries to use the chrism on them…

I’m at the point in life, I want to either get a dumpster and toss things and let the waste management take it away (not for free of course, but out of my sight and space) or donate to Goodwill, Salvation Army., my Catholic Church Thrift Shop) so I don’t have to deal with it!

Carmy, I like it enough to stay. Don’t know what neck of the woods you called home though.

See my earlier link to photos of Galveston & Kemah.

bunnyface! A sight for sore eyes!

Or sore eyes for a sight!

Rmom, I just saw your photos. I see you like sunrises/sunsets as much as I do. Very, very, nice!

Hello Bunnyface(bmonk).

Grog, down south in the Rio Grande Valley, about 6 hours from the Houston area. When I drive to Texas from FL, I drive in on I-10 and take 59 to Victoria, then 77 to the RGV.

Carmy - You are lucky to have hair like that! My ponytail is only about 2-3 inches long, so looks rather odd, and my hair won’t grow any longer. (And even with that short of ponytail, I have to use combs around my face, or the front strands will fall out.) I’ve found a thingamagig that I can wrap my hair up in that makes it look like a bun, or else I use a visor, but ponytails just don’t work well for me.

((((Carmy))))

I’m glad you still have hair too! Good thing you had lots.

Terry fox had straight hair before chemo. It grew back curly! Do you know him?

Grog ~ go to the downward pointing arrow next to the search box on the top right hand side of your screen. When your cursor is over it a list will appear move down the list until you come to people. Click on people and enter the name of the person whose album you wish to see. Rmom goes by RRAmom. Yyyguy is yyyguy.

You guys are too chatty…err, yappy tonight! I keep trying to get caught up, and there’s a dozen more posts!

And, remember, I now have 6 or 7 days of comments to skim!!!

Thanks, Grog! Yes, I do love sunsets, which was the main attraction this property had for me. I’m currently uploading my lilac and/or redbud pictures, so if you’re interested in them, check back later.

bmonk - I think they waited until I got home. They were only on page 2 about 3 hours ago.

Shika, no, I don’t know him. I’ve heard the chemo nurses tell patients that when they loose all their hair, it will often grow back as it was when they were a child. I recently saw a friend from Puerto Rico who had lost all her hair from chemo. It recently grew back and it looks beautiful!

bunnyface, you need to take Evelyn Wood’s speed reading course. hee hee!

http://www.terryfox.org/

Carmy I saw him in person. He ran across Canada in the 70’s. With only one leg, and a false leg. He died when he reached Thunder Bay. The cancer went to his lungs. He raised over $20 million that year. They have a Terry Fox run every year for cancer research.

@Carmy, I saw a young kid a few years ago with the nicest long, curly hair–looked like a girl, only the mom didn’t want to cut off that first baby growth because her son would lose the great curls.

I suspect in ten-fifteen years, she’s gonna go broke paying for the therapy for her kid’s “issues” from being called a girl so often before he was two…

bunnyface You are right. I posted once tonight, and when I sent it, I thought I’d hit a new chat group! So many posts in one minute!

Thanks, LuvH8, And yes you must start uploading some photos since you now have mine to look at!

I’ve got some ideas about getting my Arizona photos uploaded after lookinig at Rmom’s album

”bunnyface, you need to take Evelyn Wood’s speed reading course. hee hee!”

But I dune tooked the Evelyn Wood Sped Redding Curse sevar-…severl…many yeers back, and now I sure be able to red and rite reel good!

bunnyface That is so true. Mom’s don’t stop to think do they? One mother used girls clothes on her son, because she thought he was too young to care, and he had a bigger sister. Huh!?

But he was soooooooooo cute!

OMG, a 2 finger typist.

yyyguy, you have some beautiful fall photos. I have some Kinkade fall art which I hope to upload when I get around to it.

Lonewolf, I should have know to try and look at your gallery. I remember what you said a little while back.

True story from the life of Rmom! Tonight as we were driving through our small (not even a stoplight) town, there were 3 or 4 farm boys hanging around a farm truck across from the high school. It looked like they had come straight from their farms to come to the booming metropolis to have a rousing good time. I made mention to my youngest son that I could just see them dragging the streets in that farm truck. Well, to him, the term “drag” has a whole ‘nother meaning! His older brother had to interpret for me, and tell him I meant cruising the streets. I got laughing so hard, imagining those farm boys in drag, I could barely see to drive!

@Grog, I responded to a six-day-old comment of yours over at Birdbrains….

Grog–Just keep watching your pics and you’ll have what you need.

LOL rmom! What a sight to behold that would be!

That’s a good ”Rmom” story! lol

Sandy began a job as an elementary school counselor and she was eager to help. One day during recess she noticed a girl standing by herself on one side of a playing field while the rest of the kids enjoyed a game of soccer at the other. Sandy approached and asked if she was all right. The girl said she was. A little while later, however, Sandy noticed the girl was in the same spot, still by herself. Approaching again, Sandy offered, “Would you like me to be your friend?” The girl hesitated, then said, “Okay,” looking at the woman suspiciously. Feeling she was making progress, Sandy then asked, “Why are you standing here all alone?” “Because,” the little girl said with great exasperation, “I’m the goalie!”

Bunnyface, shall we all quit posting until you have more time again?

That was funny, Rmom!

bunnyface, I should have known! And I’m still laughing!

No…I’ll catch up. Some day. Maybe by December 21, 2012?

Doc T ~ two fingers? Oh my! Monkey 2 types with two fingers, I wish she would touch type because I know she learned how. I am very glad that I learned to touch type. It makes it very much easier to ‘talk’ to much.

Shika, I remember Terry Fox now. He was a good man. buunyface, that poor boy. I remember reading that Charles Bronson wore his sister’s hand me downs when he was a young boy. He grew up to quite “macho.” Yer reedng iz az gud az yer ritin!

@LuvH8, why does this Calvin & Hobbes remind me of you???

I thought the 2-finger typist went by way of the dinosaur typewriter - and I’m not talking IBM Selectrics!

Doc - Just be thankful your keyboard isn’t accessible to my hubby. As a prank, he switched a couple of keys around on a co-worker who used the “search & destroy” method of typing. (All the rest in their department touch-typed.) The co-worker kept thinking his computer was messed up, but no one else had the same trouble he did with it.

Doc, purple paisley? That’s so pretty! I bet you looked like one cool cat, LOL!

@Carmy, like that Johnny Cash song, “The Boy named Sioux”?

It’s time for beddy-bye now. For Mua and me at any rate.

Good Night all!

Hi cleo! I know you will show up any minute now!

Hahaha, Bunnyface(bmonk), I thought the same thing, but didn’t want to be the first to say it.

@Carmy, DocT looked especially cool and hip when he wore that shirt with his wide lapel, powder blue polyester suit.

Yes, Doc, and still yet it is impossible at times to keep up with everyone else’s comments!

Twelve fingers??? How many thumbs do you have, LOL

Bye —again!

Doc—

bunnyface, it’s alright. My husband likes it. I think I prefer “One Piece at a Time.” That’s the one about how he done got him a Caddylack.

Bunnyface you weren’t the only one who was reminded of me. (It’s a secret!)

Doc T ~ Did you not learn how to ‘accidently’ ruin the most atrocious of the clothes?

Shika, I’ll bet they’re all thumbs!

Good Night Shika. And Mua, too!

bunnyface, you forgot to mention Doc’s platform shoes!

Good night, Shika!

And, for the twelve fingers, I just figured DocT was typing with his big toes.

Again.

Goodnight Shika!

LOL you guys!

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz………

Night, Shika! Don’t let the bedbugs bite!

I’m not the one that snitched on you and your toes, Doc!

Good Night, Shika

I, too, must call it a night. Good night, everyone!

@Grog, I’m just glad you didn’t call it a dawn, or a morning…

Good Night Grog!

I have to go for a while also. See you later Everyone!

bunnyface, unfortunately, that will come soon enough. I will still be getting up in the dark, anyway.

Goodnight Grog!

Good Night, Grog & LuvH8

Good night, Grog! I’ve got to head to bed myself. I’ve got my lilacs uploaded now, in the album “Spring has sprung” Spring has sprung, The grass has riz, I wonder where the robin is.

Goodnight Grog, Bunnyface, and Shika!

Hey again Carmy girl!

Hey Dry! Goodnight Doc! May you have lovely, paisley dreams!

Good Night Rmom & Doc.
