Speaking of portables, when you fly on an airplane, are you ever confused about that sign in the restroom where it says, "Not Potable"?



Never noticed that. But I never understood why there was a razor blade dispenser because they never, ever, ever had razor blades in them.

Oh dear! I had more troll lore and that amazing story about the man in Washington that settled his struggle with a lug nut ...I mean...anyway, he got the shot gun out and need I explain where the bullet stopped?


Lady, what ever are you talkin' 'bout?

This man was having trouble removing the lug nuts from his wheel. He tried blowing them off with a gun. The buckshot (yes, buckshot) ended up in both of his legs instead.
As for the troll lore...we were studying about the Vikings and got pulled into some of the wild and fun Norwegian troll myths. Nevermind...I would have to post a new message the size of one long web page to explain. I did mention that Gnomes are smarter than trolls, didn't I?

Oh, and thanks for making me feel missed!


Is your yesterday, today? I'll check in on you later (that's a Saturday. )

I signed up for Bresnan just a few days ago.
100 Bucks a month includes: TV beau coup channels, very fast internet, and long distance phone for anyone!
To me that sounds like a deal.
Wait until the sweet little introductory period is over and you have to pay regular price...the fine print, dontyaknow!

Why does anyone need more than just a Commodore 64?





My little daughter's friends think the oldest video games you can come up with for them to play with are the coolest thing! I can run Sega Genesis and the oldest Nintendo games for them. In some ways the games are more challenging than these new games.

This library computer has Vista now. I don't get what the fuss is about concerning beta. It doesn't impress me in the least. Instead, I find it a constant annoyance the way everything moves in this high'falutin' OS.

I am tolerating Windows XP at home now...the disk is formated with the newer file system instead of Fat 32. Not too bad. Only two programs...one is Myst...are beyond its ability to tolerate. I think that is because of the video and its drivers.

It took some weeks to learn everything and get used to administrating the system so it would work.

WEEKS? I'm impressed. I was probably 17 before I had learned everything.





Within 4 more years, it all began to leak out!

Hi y'all. Would you read that book to me, Ezri? I've never read it, never even held one in my hands. Does it turn out like the movie?

I came to games and couldn't find trolls. It took a PM from April to navigate me to the place. You sure are hiding, being on the second or third page. Good to see you are keeping up the good work, even if not so frequently as before.

Hi Joy!

Don't forget to check out the "No Topic Fluff Thread"! But I don't know where it is for sure.

THEN he loaded some bags
and some empty old sacks
on a ramshackle sleigh
and he hitched up old Max.
Then the Grinch said "Giddap!"
and the sleigh started down
toward the homes where the Whos
Lay a-snooze in their town...
..."This is stop number one," the old Grinchy Claus hissed
and he climbed on the roof, empty bags in his fist.


want more? Amazon.com has a Look Inside link for this book. It is short enough that you could get most of the story by clicking "Suprize me"

they have 139 used & new available from $3.96

EVEN BETTER...

From You Tube:
How the Grinch Stole Christmas
As read by Ja Rule on BBC Radio 1

it is 6minutes and 44 seconds long.

The only video is the story is printed in a green font on a black screen

Wow! Thanks, Ezri! At least I have read a little of it--on your post and on the video. But I will listen to it at home as there is no sound on this computer at the office. I am just having a break time. It comes too often these days. My job is just about over. I'm only here to fill in where needed and to help those who are learning my job--and they are doing so well they don't need me very much!

Kinda ironic, but the PCs at Sony where I worked *BL-2006 had no sound either. In fact, the last PC I used had a SOUND CARD but no speakers. You might think Sony would spring for speakers but nooooooo.

Except for upper management. That wasn't too bad a thing - anything that kept them occupied at their PCs also kept them from interfering with workers working.








*BL-2006 = Before the Layoff of 2006

I think my Honey is softening up to the whole Scottish Heritage thing.



Formal event in Feb. I need a "formal gown".

I told him that I wanted a Hostess Kilt, he said "a what?"

So I showed him. > link here <

I told him that this would not be like the 3 formals I have hanging in the closet- he smiled and said "no, it won't be a satin tater sack with sequin sewed to it." and agreed to the purchase!

I meant to say that the Hostess Kilt would not "go out of style" as it had been "in style" for a few hundred years- it is not a FAD and that it would have the leather fasteners that could be taken in or out by a few holes on the buckles if I gained or lost weight as he has seen with his kilt. BUT HEY! if the reason he gave is enough to convince him then YEAH!

I simply cannot wait to get it! 4 weeks make time. the lady I ordered from said she'd have it in shop in Edinburgh, Scotland by Jan 25th and to me Via Express mail a few days later.

Tartan:
Wilson Ancient

hey Jimbo- Should I worry?

When I told my husband it was the Wilson Ancient tartan and not the actual Wilson tartan his kilt is made of he asked "Will it match my uniform?"

LOL!

my answer- "it is a tartan pattern- it matches EVERYTHING!" he laughed at me and asked again- "Will the colors go with my Dress Blues?"

So??? should I worry? What if next he asks if his uniform slacks make his backside look fat.

Okay so I am picking at him BUT he really did ask.
Him in his dress blues with my 15yo dd

him in his kilt- same tartan patter EXCEPT that the colors will be muted as in this swatch

I don't think he has anything to worry about but he asked...

I think he'd look really cool with his dress top and his kilt instead of the uniform pants. But I'm afraid the military would be a little uptight about creative attire.

Him wear his kilt with the jacket- Some HAVE done it BUT they were much higher rank than Jerry and I believe they were wearing the Official ARMY tartan. He is worried about MY Hostess Kilt matching HIS uniform. He'd never let me wear a hot pink dress with his uniform. It must "match" not MY rule- his.
