Big Top by Rob Harrell for April 13, 2009

Helllooooo, is anyone here? Should I move the gazebo?

Marg, don’t move the gazebo. It’s still early on the east coast.

Aack, the poodle lost his personality!

LOL!!

Morning all! Enchilada caaserole. Sounds great! Wonder how it will taste with coffee at 8:30 AM? Well, I’ll give it a try!

Morning Dry! I’ll check back in later. I’m out and about.

Hey all, I am back from a short, albeit sweet, vacation. How is everyone doing?

johnnydoc where were you?

Hey all, I think we should visit Carmen and Winslow occassionally (sp) don’t you?

We may need a screen around the gazebo in case the rain begins to blow in!

I commented as well at PC.

Hello, hope everyone’s having a good day. I’ve got my youngest, special little girl home with me today. Her school was going on a field trip to the local minor league ballgame today. They are having “Autism Day” there. Anyway, I know my girlie would not have enjoyed that, so we are having fun here. We’re getting ready to run around town. Catch up later. My husband emailed me some “bumper sticker” quotes. I liked “Don’t spread my wealth, spread my work ethic”. Maybe I should post that on SOTU and to see what happens.

Either the powers that be removed our friend or he removed himself!

carmy good comment to post!

You must be remarkable, lady, with all that is going on in your life! My hats off to you! :-)

When did this site turn into Twitter? There are better places to carry on pseudo-private conversations.

As for the cartoon… I LOVE it! I can’t understand how Big Top never made it. I’m just glad Rob Harrell has something else going these days at “Adam@Home”.

G’day fellow space cadets. Just haven’t made it here yet, this has never been a regular stop on my tail. Thought I would stop in to see how the Tribe is doing.

Migawd. It’s a culinary flash mob!

Enchilada casserole sounds great, any time, any place. Currently lacking a kitchen, I make do with Trader Joes frozen beef enchiladas, but I’ll take homemade any day!

I think the pro tag is for those who would want to upgrade to pro status rather than a visual badge to rank some posters as better than others. I think it rather places us all on a balanced field except for the site benefits. . Did that make any sense? That’s just my opinion, I could be wrong.

No Rad but then when do you make sense (snicker, wink wink :-D

The alter ego was at BC about 2 hours ago.

For the record: I have only one identity here (based on my real name and also used on many other sites whenever it is available). I have never spoofed anyone, nor set out to confuse anyone. I give people back as much respect as they grant me (even respecting some I vehemently disagree with, and there are a lot of them). And it would be a better place if more people thought this way. Just want you to know.

pschearer You are not the alter ego I was referring to.

Drystyha: I didn’t think you meant me, and I was speaking to a lot of people, not particularly you. But I’m done with Big Top for the day.

I feel as though I’ve just crashed a party in the twilight zone. Clearly, I don’t surf the toons often enough. Back to my studying. Neat cartoon though- I’ve had bad hair days too.

Dry, I am so not remarkable. It’s the Rock I’m clinging to that is keeping me going. Coast to coast prayer warriors too. ;)

Carmy don’t sell yourself short! You are remarkable…a herd of kids at home, fighting the fight, husband half way around the world is remarkable! And the fact you are clinging to the Rock just confirms it!

carmy What JFri said, ditto!

JFri where the he** were you? Saw you one time, arggh. Pretty soon we were gonna out a search party for you! If you saw my earlier post, our nemesis appears to be gone!

Speaking of search parties, remember what I said about the next 3 work days for me.

Dry uh, up the Columbia River Gorge? Also trying to stay out of trouble per the wishes of the crew Why do think whack job is gone? WOW! Driving hail storm!

Joy I am not all worried about us “twittering”. As I said before, Pibgorn carries on a bigger party then we do! They get trollers over there to, once in a while, “ONE” in particular if you get my drift. This is fun! Everybody else who has a problem with it, needs to get a grip!

JFri are you fishing? Hail storm huh, cool!

Whack jobs comments have been deleted, either by the powers that be, or by himself. He’ll be back, I’m sure, because Pibgorn kicked him out too!

By the way Joy, tried Stouffers lasagne for lunch today! Very good, but my fav is still the peppers.

well shucks! You guys gotta keep the party going here, as it appears JOy and I won’t be around much. I’ll be here in the early pm when everybody else just about will be gone! :=[

Dry I will be scarce next week as I have a trade show to attend. And, no, I wasn’t fishing! It’s still winter here! I was doing that work thing! Old whacky messed up yesterday when he said his serial number was RA* and that RA stood for real army…it was a prefix for enlisted soldiers only during Viet Nam and stood for REGULAR army! Hope he really is gone.

Dry My comments were deleted yesterday, too, as were yours about locking himself in a room!

Left over leg of lamb and oven raoasted garlic potatoes to share. The roast is crusted with fresh rosemary, thyme, garlic, and coarse salt mixed with butter. Now where’s that pirate with the rum?

AAAAARRRRRRRR Marg sign me up fer the leg o’ lamb! I bring 3 kegs o’ rum to wash it down with!

JFri no I did that one myself. I was saving the comic, but didn’t want the nasty comments saved with it so I deleted them. Thought it would only delete on my saved comics, but apparently it deleted at the site also.

Trade show? What do you do,if I may ask?

ohh!! Marg let me in the door first before our pirate eats all the leftovers!

I work for some big goofball selling tools to the power utilities. Everything from hydraulic tools to rope to cable stripping tools. I’m real knowledgeable about rope in particular! Remember last week when I was paging doctorToon to x-ray? I think Joy thought that was my work!

Dry would ye deprive a scurvy pirate his leg o’ lamb? AAAARRRRRR, me lassie!

commicaddict no I won’t deprive you, IF YOU SHARE THE LOOT!! AAARRRRRR! :=)

No problem, missy! As long as ye don’t drink up the blasted rum

Enjoy,all :) http://comics.com/reality_check/2009-04-13/

Dry So, do I get to ask what you do for work?

AAAARRRRR, now ain’t this the truth??? http://www.seattlepi.com/fun/bizarro.asp

commicaddict Just leave me some rum, too. I had a tough day!

Dry AAARRRRR there be plenty fer ye ta drown yer sorrows! What be the problem?

Dry Can’t fault your logic there!

for some reason i have the feeling i may not make it… this posting on here all the time… i am so behind by the time i get here today there are 53 post. oh my. then i just cant help myself and have to read them all… i love you bunch of people. you all make my day!

so i see that i was MIA. i got up late and had to shoot out needed to be on the job site at 8 so had to run, also computer craped out on me AGAIN and was freezing up and still is last night. so i couldnt get on again. but no need to worry. if i dont post in a day or two that is when you need to send the search party lol. well off to do hw, bc of course i would have a huge project to do and a lot of crazy reading to do all due monday when we go back to school (spring break) talk to you all later, if my computer allows me. hope all are fine. later.

Doc, Tabby, JFri Peace and love to you and all our friends here! I may or may not get back tonight. “”24”” and “CSI Miami” are coming on and those are 2 shows I really enjoy!

Tabby stick with us!

AAACCK!! Thunderstorms here and I keep getting kicked offline. Must be quick. Funny, funny comments. Ya’ll are a riot. Keep smiling :) Goodnight (maybe).

carmy goodnight! I love thunderstorms!

Hey again birds! I had a short vacation across the state (of Michigan) to see some family. Didn’t have the internet, or the time for that matter to say Hi. I have a couple of really busy weeks ahead, so I won’t be around a ton, but I should be able to check in once or twice a day. Good night all.
