Good morning TRIBE & Big Sister

Good Morning, Tribe!

Good morning ♠Lonewolf♠. :-)

Good Morning, Ladywolf.

Nice breakfast menu!

Can I please have a couple breakfast burritos and Doc’s World Famous Nuclear Coffee?

Here you go Lonewolf I hope you like it.

Thank you, Ladywolf.

Be back in a bit.

Another chump bump! A lot of those lately in different forms!

Dang spammer!

Good Morning, ♠Lonewolf♠ & Ladywolf

Can I have a burger and a corn of the cob, please, Ladywolf

Good Morning, Grog.

Yes you may Grog. Here you go. I hope you like it. :-)

I hope that my Big Sister feels better. Summer colds are no fun.

Thank you, Ladywolf. Mmmmm, very good, thank you.

Lonewolf and Grog You are both welcome..

Well I hate to leave you two fine gentlemen, but I got to call it a night. See you all when I wake up. :-)

Good night, Ladywolf.

Good Night, Ladywolf.

Good night, ♠Lonewolf♠

I’m impressed over this breakfast menu. I still have two hours before official breakfast time, so if you could have corn on the cob, a hamburger, and some milk for starters, I’d appreciate it. A good 5:00 AM starter.

When Chris Alan comes in to join me, we’ll both have our usual CocoMocha. Please have it ready by the usual time (7:00 AM CDT).

Does that apply to giggling as well, Doc Toon? Good Morning.

(Smell that porky aroma? That’s Burnin’ Spam in the Mornin’, baby, my perennial addition to this menu…)

LADYWOLF Ooh! Ooh! I scream. You scream. We all scream for ice cream. When your AC has been out for a couple of days in a heat wave, a lot of ice cream and cold showers is the way to go.. Touchy, who the bleeepy bleep is getting touchy? Bleeping cat is out to get me.

Morning TRIBE AC is broke. Computer took 4 hours to get back on line. At least my shrink gave me an emergency appointment this morning.

Good Morning Lewreader!  

Good Morning Doc, Johanan, Tink, Grog, Lonewolf & Little Sister    

Good Morning, Johanan, Lewreader, Doctor Toon & LuvH8

Good Morning, Doc, Grog, LuvH8, Johanan, Lewreader and Tink

Zonked out earlier, Grog.

Good Morning, ♠Lonewolf♠. I realized that when I was looking at the comments this morning.

Good Morning Grog & Lonewolf

You both should ‘zonk out’ more often.

I zonked out right after I said, “Good night, ♠Lonewolf♠.”

And you should talk young lady!

What? I tried to sleep last night. I did manage to sleep more than an hour or so. I did take a nap yesterday, like suggested. See, I be good!

Yeah, LuvH8! What Grog said! LOL

Got to get James to football camp early this AM. Catch you all a little later.

Have a great day!

P&L

Have a good one, ♠Lonewolf♠

Have fun Lonewolf, it’s Friday!

My computer is being wonky, I will be back later.

Have Fun Grog. Remember to smile at people when they least expect it. Perhaps frequently enough to unnerve them.

Maybe a wolfish smile?

Have fun, LuvH8

Good morning all!

LadyWolf - About your Special - Big Sister’s Nuclear Coffee Fudge Explosion Delight. (Once you taste it you’ll keep coming back for more. I guarantee it) Isn’t that on the controlled substance list due to it’s highly addictive nature?

Good Morning, Digital Frog

Good Morning, Doctor Toon.

Um, LuvH8, I thought you were going to bed!?

I did not say I was going to bed. I said….. I don’t remember what I said, but it didn’t include sleeping.

I am trying to decide if I want coffee or tea or juice. Hmmm.. usually this would be an easy decision. I know! Soda!

Doc if the result included any actual sleep at all, it can not be a Nuclear Coffee Super Power. Sorry, but Nuclear Coffee never aids in the process of sleep.

It’s a slow computer thing! Be nice! (pouting)

What do clowns know anyway!

You go without coffee long enough for the super powers to wear off?!?!?! I always thought you were a real coffee addict. (stares down at the floor slowly shaking head back in forth in sad disillusionment)

Good Morning, Fellow Baby

What a relief you scared me for a minute, Doc.

(Maniacal Laughter)

Good Morning you spucking fammer! I flagged you - AGAIN!

Good Morning Docor Toon and ALL

It would be nice if it were ony 75 @ 10AM here, Doc. It was 80 when I woke up and was already 90 the lst time I went out, which was about 10 AM.

The freezer would be a bit much for me, Doc

Hello, Sojourner

Hello TRIBE. I guess I’m ready for another day of heat.

Good night, Doc

Have a good nap Doctor Toon! Hello Grog, LADYWOLF

Hello Ladywolf

Happy napping Doc.

I do not do heat well either, still I have to work out in it.

Hello Grog.

Hello Sojo.

Nice avatar, Ladywolf

I thought it was fitting.

Grog your avatar is great also.

I don’t know what I am going to do today. The beach is definitely out of question.

Soda with a nuclear kick………Hmmmm! could be better than wasting money on those worthless energy drinks.

Well, I’ve got to pack it in and head over to the Tech Center.

Catch y’all tonight.

See you later Grog

In honor of the cartoon, I wonder if there is any escargot available?

I see your dancing Elmo and raise you a Twitchy on caffeine! (Longer version also available…

Hi bmonk :-)

I’m sure there is some escargot available here. :-)

Hello bmonk

Good. I’d rather eat snails than slugs.

Remember when Calvin was feeling a little sluggish one morning???

Sojo I can’t wait to see what you do with your photobucket album. :-)

I don’t know if I could ever eat snail. (Sounds squishy chewy)

LADYWOLF - Mainly for testing and of interest I have permission to upload some photos friends took in Africa. Maybe later some photos people I know took in Australia. As I can will upload some photos I took in WS and a few others. Backpacking, Goldwing trips, bike trips etc. I’ll have to scan in to upload as I can. Will add pics to use in comments also.

P.S. - Snails taste good, also snake tastes good!

I’ve never tried snail. I have tried squid, and I will never eat that again. Sqishy, squishy, ewie, ewie, yuck!

Good afternoon Tribeandall!

I feel as if the work day should be over already! :^)

♠Lonewolf♠ - Hopefully it soon will be!

LADYWOLF - Squid can be rubbery but needs to be fixed right. :-)

Hello, Sojo.

I am headed back to the grind (and a hot grind, too!).

Have a great afternoon!

P&L

@LW18, I found squid not so much squishy as rubbery, like eating little cylinders of bicycle tires.

It’s getting hot here today also. Near 90° (32C), but no real chance of thunder in the forecast until Sunday night or so.

A good excuse for a nap, or finding a cool spot and reading a book.

I couldn’t think of rubbery at the moment. Sometimes words escape me.

I am not going outside……No way uh uh! It is 102°F

Need to leave for a while.

@LW18, I’m not going outside until I must–and then I’m gonna stick to the shade as much as possible, and it’s only about 90°!

We’ll miss you Sojourner–but while you’re gone, maybe we can get some target practice in… ;-)

@DocT, I took a 20 min. power nap after lunch. It worked too.

Read it bmonk Thank you.

Hi Doc.

nothing wrong with taking a nap. :-)

Naps are good when you are less than about 5 years. Age 5-7, they are good for your parents or teachers. Age 8-22, they are good for getting through boring classes. Age 20-65±, they are good for long work days. Age 50+, they are just good again.

Good afternoon Ladywolf, Doc, Bmonk & Sojo

Done for the day!

LADYWOLF I have your saying about my imaginary friend on a tee shirt . SHE won’t let me wear if>

AC still broke but I have gone so far as too look up numbers of people who can tell me who worked on theirs. Guess I’m gonna have to spend the weekend in the park at the 3 day Jazz Fest. Dang!

Bad ice cream…..bad, bad ice cream.

@Lewreader, I always could find cool AC at the local library…

Hello, Lewreader.

Sojo, you have some cool pictures at Photobucket.

You want good AC Go down to any good business preferably a book store and relax.

You saw them too Lonewolf! They were awesome.

Take care, Doc. Have a good evening!

Getting a car dropped off for repairs. BRB

And I’m going to a local concert tonight.

Good evening everyone. Took longer than I expected!

I hope you have a good weekend too, EMET!

Enjoy your concert, Ladywolf!

I blew the horn and blew the horn and still the people would not leave! Phoooey. The temperature here has been in the mid 70s most of the day. Yesterday it went all the way up to 79.

I found blue food spray!!!!! I can color all the food blue on top. I still don’t know why they won’t let me dye the Easter eggs after I peel them. That would make the deviled eggs look much more festive. Especially if I add color to the filling. Hey! They can’t stop me, all they can do is not eat them. I think I won’t even wait for Easter! Yippy!!

Luv-

I can’t remember where, but I found on-line zip-loc baggies with pre-printed mold on them. Keeps co-workers from eating your sandwiches.

Wow. This is about as quiet a Friday night as I’ve ever seen.

Hy  that sounds like a nice thing to have around, just in case.

Good Evening Grog. We (me,myself & me) are glad you are here.

There are almost as many posts on Calin & Hobbes!

Really? I was having trouble getting that strip to show up earlier, do I want to know what the fuss is?

Everybody’s giving their zips/postal codes…..

I don’t know, I’ve had 3 locally. Hmmm… do you know I have never lived more than 25 miles from somewhere else I have lived. That makes me strange, doesn’t it?

Not at all. Some people just never want to leave the nest, as it were.
