[elye]

Thank you...should check to see if Donna Babinsky put up one before I post this though I guess.

OMG...What if DonnaB looks exactly like you, Originaldonna? Then what would we do??

Howzabout on these white whiskers?

(Not all of 'em, but enough to feel oooooolllllld)

Pic, Puleeeze!!

To get rid of those, Ptaum, I believe it's BACKSPACE...

But how many on the moon while sToNeD???? *_*

Wow! I'd weigh mere millilitres up there...or centigrams...or kilalloos...(!?)....

Shouldn't 'tour' be pronounced 'tower'?

Dour sour flour are!!!

Then there's 'pour' . ... . .oooo and 'your'.

Hmmmmm

Our dour mood was due to your sour flour pour in the brownie mix?

One of my favoUrite all time movies . . . Saaaaay, would you trade Richard for a nice shrubbery . . . one that looks nice . . . and not too expensive?

Well we will trade him for a shrubbery as long as you promise to chop it down with......A HERRING!!!

Well, since we are all one big Commonwealth, I must ask if you lump us Canucks in with Nikki's "side of the ocean". (Jeez, do I really wanna know the answer to what I'm about to ask?)....Ever seen You Can't Do That on Television? Want your honest opinion if you have. Does it make you want to take your own life? And the token adult on the show....weird or WHAT?!

Yes, that show is also up there on the list of suicide worthy shows. There are some others that will remain nameless. I TRIED to like "Kids in the Hall", I really did. Since we're alone here, though, I will confess to a brief but lovely obsession with EastEnders........

I cannot sing Guilligan's Island song all the way through but have been stopped many time through my life and asked for an autograph....I seem to resemble Marianne on that show....go figure, I couldn't be the sexy one, Ginger!

Take heart, Donna. I read a magazine article once and it said that they did a survey of men, and the majority of them would rather - ahem - "spend time" with MaryAnne over Ginger. And no, I don't mean Maryann over Ginger at the same time. Had to put that disclaimer in before Elye or Tom beat me to it.

Hehehe .. . . .. ... .

<Dana Carvey as Bush the Elder> "not gonna do it"

Really, Tom, we've only just met, and already I am admiring you for your restraint.

Emily - I am so glad your daughter is OK. I do hope that other player got a big penalty from the referee or at the very least a case of some horrible South American rash. Something a Voodoo Witch Doctor would whip up. I know people, let me see what I can do.

[Mtndog]

Emily- I am very glad that your daughter is OK. :wub:

If I was a female sub-standard poodle, i would be mesmerized by Gus's toofies!

Donna- YOU LOOK GREAT!!!!!!!!!

I hate the term vital wheat gluten...it always makes it seem like if you dont have it bad things will happen...like Vital Signs or like Vital Supplies...LOL

Me too- also known as seitan which I like to refer to as SATAN!!!!!!!!

Oh . . . and here I was going to say it was a bloodless coup.

Maybe next time...cat fight. Meow!

I do know the airspeed velocty of an unladen swallow, and can recite the theme song to Gilligan's Island by heart.

OMG- :lol:

She also loves the teletubbies and the Flowertots. I think if I took some illicit substances I might be OK with them, but stone cold sober they are just weird.

They remind me of something you'd see on a bad acid trip (not that I'd know about that

One of my favoUrite all time movies . . . Saaaaay, would you trade Richard for a nice shrubbery . . . one that looks nice . . . and not too expensive?

We are the knights who say NI!!!!!!!!!Oh, oh, I see, running away then. You yellow bas#*rd! Come back here and take what's coming to you. I'll bite your legs off!

I'm not dead yet!

1.Yes, humans do have anal glands....some are just one big anal gland

2.I would consider it an honor to be teabagged by anyone.....just love attention of any kind

3.The yeti has been moving around far too much for me to get accurate inseam measurements and feel it is better for all to wait on the flowchart.

Ahhhh.most excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ptaum- What have you lit on fire in your avatar????

[elye]

Ptaum- What have you lit on fire in your avatar????

Hopefully his wit...C'mon, Tom.....we're waiting for 90%!

[tom]

Oh Em the pressure now!!!!!

Almost performance anxiety

What if I can't get it up?

Edit: oops did I leave out "to 90%"???

[Darn210]

Too many quotes . . . this is going to take forever!

yipes!!!

(As a sports guy, I can't help but yelp GOOD SAVE!!)

Scary biz Em .. ..so glad to hear she's fine.

<phew!>

Yes! I thought this, too, but needed to wait to hear she's fine . . . Thank Goodness!!

I cannot sing Guilligan's Island song all the way through but have been stopped many time through my life and asked for an autograph....I seem to resemble Marianne on that show....go figure, I couldn't be the sexy one, Ginger! Please let me know if I pass...would love to hang around a while

There was a commercial at one point (probably beer), anybody remember it . . . they always pick MaryAnn . . . plus she makes a mean coconut cream pie!

I lay in bed with Sophie before she went to sleep tonight (now there's a tired kid), and she quietly said, "You know in Bugs Bunny, or Disney, when a character bashes his head, he, like, has stars and lights floating around his head? Did you know that this REALLY HAPPENS?!! I really, really saw big lights swirling around when I was lying on the ice! It's really TRUE!" Amazing what children will bring away from something like this...

Tis true. I got hit in the head once with a boat oar . . . and it was swirly lights that I saw. Also got hit in the face once with a piece of fire wood (NOT on fire at the time) . . . I never lost consciousness but I don't remember about 15 seconds of time . . . now that's an odd feeling.

Well we will trade him for a shrubbery as long as you promise to chop it down with......A HERRING!!!

We are the knights who say NI!!!!!!!!!Oh, oh, I see, running away then. You yellow bas#*rd! Come back here and take what's coming to you. I'll bite your legs off!

I'm not dead yet!

More clues . . . got it figured out yet, Tom?

Tis but a scratch.

I've had worse.

Just a flesh wound.

Yes, that show is also up there on the list of suicide worthy shows.

No, No, No . . . twas a trick question. She didn't mean it, Emily . . . she was just being silly. <pssst, Colleen, tell her you were just being silly and your favoUrite actor of all time was the adult on that show . . . can't seem to remember his name . . . last name "Lye"?>

[elye]

Oh Em the pressure now!!!!!

Almost performance anxiety

What if I can't get it up?

Ooooohhhh.....How to begin to respond?...

Don't worry about it...it doesn't matter, honestly, if you can't, you know...get it up there. It really doesn't. We'll all understand... it happens to all guys at some point where they can't maintain maximum wittiness. Really, it's okay. Please don't be embarrassed or humiliated.

[Darn210]

Colleen says this . . .

Really, Tom, we've only just met, and already I am admiring you for your restraint.

. . . and three posts later, Tom says this . . .

What if I can't get it up?

Edit: oops did I leave out "to 90%"???

Yeah, I knew it wouldn't last.

[Darn210]

. . . and then Emily, who never pretended to have restraint, said this . . .

Ooooohhhh.....How to begin to respond?...

Don't worry about it...it doesn't matter, honestly, if you can't, you know...get it up there. It really doesn't. We'll all understand... it happens to all guys at some point where they can't maintain maximum wittiness. Really, it's okay. Please don't be embarrassed or humiliated.

. . . and I respond with

They make pills for that, don't they?

Ah, C'mon...it was suicide-provoking, at times...and VERY gross!

Tom-John watched some of the NE game, he is more into the NYG vs GB which is on now...he is a NY fan.

Sillies you must help the computer ditz over here..how do you use more than one reply from different members? I cannot figure it out.

[tom]

They make pills for that, don't they?

Really?!! hmmmmm .. .. . I don't suppose you could arrange for me to electronically receive information on how & where to purchase some at great savings, could you?

I'll be checking my email.

P.S. I'm all-too-slowly stacking the quotes for SO many replies . .. . .

It is easy, once you know how. As you are reading along in the thread, when you see something you want to respond to, click the green '+Quote' button in the lower right corner of the post, just to the left of the '"Reply' - it will turn red and say '-Quote'.

Do this as many times as you want. When you get the the end of the thread and click the 'Add Reply' button, all of the posts you selected will be there as quotes. You can remove material from any of them, and add your replies.

Note that if you do this and then do not reply to the thread where you did this, the quotes are remembered and the next time you reply they will be there. This can be useful, or confusing, depending on what you actually post in the reply.

The right-pointing arrow in the quote header is a link to the post that is being quoted, so others can easily find the original post if they know this obscure fact. It is the <post='000000'> part that does this.

Did you know that this REALLY HAPPENS?!! I really, really saw big lights swirling around when I was lying on the ice! It's really TRUE!" Amazing what children will bring away from something like this...

I quietly replied, "Well, sweetie, what I do know is this: the player that so dangerously charged you and threw you into the net was verrrrrry fortunate that I was not in the arena at that time, for she would not have seen stars and lights in her eyes, but five of the best", holding my fist up.

Mygawd......what an angry, anxious MOM brings out of all this....

I think you definitely would have been justified with that action! I imagine seeing your kid in a crumpled heap on the ice definitely erases all prior rules of decorum.

I played coed ultimate frisbee with my brother once and this guy kept picking on me and eventually tackled me and kicked me in the ribs. So Colin ran all the way across the field and punched the guy in the face. My brother is a pretty peaceful guy but mess with his little sister and it's all over. That was pretty much the only time I saw him be violent. Actually on further reflection there was an incident involving my brother and someone who mistreated our doggie when Colin and I had a party while our parents were out of town. Lets just say there was a beer bottle and someone else's head involved.

So you mess with someone's kid or sibling or pet and all bets are off!

Oracle Peter, who knows all things . . . answer me this:

Why can't my son wear a pair of jeans for more than one day . . . even if he had them on for only an hour or two? . . . but he'll wear the same pair of underwear and socks for a week if I don't tell him to change them????

I don't understand this behavior. I start every day with fresh socks and underwear. Sometimes if I get all sweaty and shower in the afternoon I start over with a second set on the same day.

We've been married over 26 years and I still exhibit some bachelor behavior in the kitchen to minimize what needs to be washed (and we have a dishwasher), but not wearing fresh undies--

Trousers, on the other hand, well, I used to have a job where I had to wear a suit every day. I did not take my suits to the cleaners after wearing them only once.

I can't count the # of times I've seen 'em from collisions etc.

What sucked was a stretch where I see minor ones just from standing up.

Well we will trade him for a shrubbery as long as you promise to chop it down with......A HERRING!!!

Ooh! Ooh! I know this!

Take heart, Donna. I read a magazine article once and it said that they did a survey of men, and the majority of them would rather - ahem - "spend time" with MaryAnne over Ginger. And no, I don't mean Maryann over Ginger at the same time. Had to put that disclaimer in before Elye or Tom beat me to it.

Curses!!!! I got "disclaimed"!

Emily - I am so glad your daughter is OK. I do hope that other player got a big penalty from the referee

I'm leaning towards there being nothing illegal about the play, what w/ the puck right there.

It'll always seem strange to me that pros are allowed/encouraged to fight. Hockey's different.

They remind me of something you'd see on a bad acid trip (not that I'd know about that

Yeah I only had good ones too.

We are the knights who say NI!!!!!!!!!

Ahhhh . .. .the herring got me on the right path and this got me through the gate, into the Land of the Knowing.

Ptaum- What have you lit on fire in your avatar????

Heehee that's my fireplace. Gave it a test run the other night and when film is free, EVERYthing's worth a shot.

Doesn't that middle top flame look like a reindeer w/ 3point antlers?

(aka single-stub in some parts)

I heard a surfeit of antler terminology on an Alaskan moose hunt long ago.

A part of the LOW-kul regg-you-layyyyy-shuns meant you'd have to differentiate a 49" antler gap from a 50 - at a 1/4 to a 1/2 mile away.

(I was sort of an unarmed U.N. observer btw .. .or was it U.M. . .. . United Mammals)

BTW, have any of you ever built any fire while a non-incapacitated (can that just be capacitated?) male was anywhere nearby?

I'd feel like a total wuss watching the woman build the fire.

Donna! <waves to av> Nice pic! .. . .. . .. .why'd I think ALL your pix would be mid-guffaw?

It's funny how, at some point of many a Saturday morn, I suddenly think "oh damn .. .got up too late again to surprise Donna at WhFds!" :lol:

[cruelshoes]

OMG...What if DonnaB looks exactly like you, Originaldonna? Then what would we do??

Would you say that we have a plethora of Donnas? A Donnapalooza perhaps?

We are the knights who say NI!!!!!!!!!Oh, oh, I see, running away then. You yellow bas#*rd! Come back here and take what's coming to you. I'll bite your legs off!

I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!

Really - is there a more quotable movie? Yippee to Tom for solving the mystery!

No, No, No . . . twas a trick question. She didn't mean it, Emily . . . she was just being silly. <pssst, Colleen, tell her you were just being silly and your favoUrite actor of all time was the adult on that show . . . can't seem to remember his name . . . last name "Lye"?>

Ah. I see. Did I imply that I hated that show? I really meant that I hated to MISS that show. I loved it. It was right up there with the Red Green Show.

Reading the sillyville handbook. flip....flip...flip.... Ah, here it is. "Do not insult Canadian Television. The Canucks do not like it. If you do, they will keep all their back bacon and toques and Bob and Doug McKenzie Christmas albums to themselves."

I'm glad your daughter is ok Emily

Ok, this is not a silly but I feel terribly sad for the dog who lives across the street.

He is a very elderly Irish Setter or a Golden Retriever (not really up on my dog breeds) and the owners just let him out the front door to go out. They never walk him, never are with him and they leave him out for long periods of time.

Keep in mind it's been very cold and we have had lots of snow. Sometimes I will see him sitting at the front door, which is away from the sun, staring at the door to go inside for a very long time. One time I spotted him outside laying on the snow covered driveway waiting to be let in because his old bones got tired of waiting at the front door on the concrete. In freezing temps, laying in the snow!

When the owner goes for a run they leave him in the front yard and then when he returns the dog gets so excited he is back, he runs and greets him, tail wagging, and the owner doesn't even acknowledge his presence, he just picks up the paper and walks past him.

Maybe it's just me and I am being too sensitive? But it really does break my heart.

[blueeyedmanda]

Morning Sillies...very bitter cold out there...not making it easy to leave for work on a Monday....but here I am at my desk...where did that weekend go???

[elye]

So you mess with someone's kid or sibling or pet and all bets are off!

...Wow...I want a brother like yours, Alex!

Why can't my son wear a pair of jeans for more than one day . . . even if he had them on for only an hour or two? . . . but he'll wear the same pair of underwear and socks for a week if I don't tell him to change them????

Too funny...we discuss this behavior often...must be the Y chromosone, as my daughter has never exhibited this behavior, nor have any of the other daughters of friends/family. Janet, does your little girl wear the same socks and underwear for days? Think it's behavior that needs to go under that list with snakes, snails and puppy-dog's tails...

I'm leaning towards there being nothing illegal about the play, what w/ the puck right there. It'll always seem strange to me that pros are allowed/encouraged to fight. Hockey's different.

Well, the goalie, like the quarterback, needs to be well protected by official rules (note it's the goalie's mom speaking... ), and therefore there must be strict penalties dealt when they are messed with. It was a tough call--Sophie was absolutely charged and sent flying...whether or not that level of aggression and roughness was needed for the player to get the puck, well, there's the rub. Incidentally, the player did get two minutes, immediately.

....But I'm Sophie's mommy....and that player should've gotten a MAJOR!! Or thrown out!!

Reading the sillyville handbook. flip....flip...flip.... Ah, here it is. "Do not insult Canadian Television. The Canucks do not like it. If you do, they will keep all their back bacon and toques and Bob and Doug McKenzie Christmas albums to themselves."

Yup. I guess that about sums us up. Except for the igloos...they simply litter our landscape...

Ok, this is not a silly but I feel terribly sad for the dog who lives across the street.

Maybe it's just me and I am being too sensitive? But it really does break my heart.

This is HEINOUS behavior!! Mygawd...do you know them well enough to talk to them about it, as diplomatically as possible?

[Mtndog]

What would we do without the Oracle Peter. We must compose an ode to him and build him a temple. Peter- what kind of temple do you want?

Tom- I overnight expressed "those pills" to you. You'll be able to get it up in no time and for long time! But if it STAYS up for too long, go to the ER and try' splaining that one :lol:

Football Schmootball- My team won (na na nananana!). Actually, don't care but my heart is a wee bit broken for Brett favre as he is CUTE!

The Giants are going to the Superbowl!!!!!!

(My roommate)John is in his glory!

Wait- is anyone else suspicious here- DO Amanda and Tom share the same john?

BTW, have any of you ever built any fire while a non-incapacitated (can that just be capacitated?) male was anywhere nearby?I'd feel like a total wuss watching the woman build the fire.

No, but once I was assigned to keep an IN-capacitated man from falling into a bonfire. Unfortuantely, I had to stay capacitated that night.

Would you say that we have a plethora of Donnas? A Donnapalooza perhaps?

Ok, this is not a silly but I feel terribly sad for the dog who lives across the street.

Maybe it's just me and I am being too sensitive? But it really does break my heart.

Julie- You need to go get this dog. I'm sure that with all the dog-owners on this thread we could disguise him and I HATE YOUR NEIGHBORS- that is so mean. I know an elderly gentleman who saw something similar with the husky next door- the first one his neighbors had went crazy from being chained up outside all day and had to be put down. Then they got another one so he offered to "watch' him during the day.....takes him EVERYWHERE- beach, on bus rides (he's a school bus driver in the afternoon), keeps him at his house all day. People like that shouldn't be allowed to have pets...never mind childrenm!!!!!!!!!!
