  1. Poor wascally wabbits No need to worry about the guild tho Game is down and hopefully the bugs will be worked out of it. I am guilded elsewhere but I wish you guys the best
  2. But you didn't miss it-you were just late in reading it. That is totally different And the thought still remains!
  3. Mynx Come thru Tennessee and wave at me!!
  4. Mom-isms I am sure you all recognize them A little soap & water never killed anybody. Always wear clean underwear in case you get in an accident. Are you going out dressed like that? Are your hands broken? Pick it up yourself! I'm not your maid! Don't ask me WHY. The answer is NO. Don't cross your eyes or they'll freeze that way. Don't EVER let me catch you doing that again! Don't make me come in there! Don't put that in your mouth, you don't know where it's been. Don't run with a lollipop in your mouth.
  5. All I really need is love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt! Lucy Van Pelt (in Peanuts, by Charles M. Schulz) I've had three lovers in the past four years, and they all ran a distant second to a good book and a warm bath. On a superficial level, I'm clumsy, self-deprecating, uncertain at times, and I say stupid things. Renee Zellweger A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject. Sir Winston Churchill
  6. I think Happy thoughts and prayers are never late Salinye I am so happy for you!!!
  7. Would that be Bob Seger, Pete Seger, or another Seger I am unfamiliar with? With the mention of CCR I am incliened to assume Bob, since they are similar styles of music, which is awsome, because Bob Seger rules, and he lives in my home state! Sorry-don't know how I missed thisBob Seger of course. I know there are others but not in his talent range. Yes he rules-ummm when he has a concert I am dedicated to standing outside for weeks if necessary. Can I stay with you if that happens?
  8. A Mexican bandit made a specialty of crossing the Rio Grande from time to time and robbing banks in Texas. Finally, a reward was offered for his capture, and an enterprising Texas ranger decided to track him down. After a lengthy search, he traced the bandit to his favorite cantina, snuck up behind him, put his trusty six-shooter to the bandit's head, and said, "You're under arrest. Tell me where you hid the loot or I'll blow your brains out!" But the bandit didn't speak English, and the Ranger didn't speak Spanish. Fortunately, a bilingual lawyer was in the saloon and translated the Ranger's message. The terrified bandit blurted out, in Spanish, that the loot was buried under the oak tree in back of the cantina. "What did he say?" asked the Ranger. The lawyer answered, "He said 'Get lost, Gringo. You wouldn't dare shoot me.'
  9. Even more clues you could be a Redneck... You can entertain yourself for more than an hour with a fly swatter. You've ever been pumping gas and another customer asks you to check his oil. You think the Bud Bowl is real. Your dog goes "oink!" You think the Nutcracker is something you did off the high dive. Your mailbox is made out of old auto parts. You know how to milk a goat. Your kids have a three-day old Kool-Aid mustache. Your TV gets 512 channels, but you go outside to use the bathroom. You've ever stood outside a bathroom and heckled someone inside. Turning on your lights involves pulling a string. You have a refrigerator just for beer. You come back from the dump with more than you took. Your wife owns a camouflage nightie. You've ever worn cowboy boots with Bermuda! shorts. You don't think baseball players spit and scratch too much. You think the Styrofoam cooler is the greatest invention of all time. You take your dog for a walk and you both use the same tree to relieve yourselves. The most common phrase heard in your house is, "Somebody go jiggle the handle." You can't take a nap without at least one hand tucked inside your pants.
  10. Not to be argumentative *she says with a smile* but what is wrong with John Ashcroft? Let us keep in mind that he is basically a good guy-trying to do a job that is almost impossible. I say this because any job done on behalf of the government is an impossible task. Somehow the government becomes a huge thought eating process. Individual people no longer manage this group. It should not be a battle against the lesser of two weevils. If it is I prefer the known weaknesses of the current president. There are many things I believe should have been done differently and Iraq is one of them. However he did what he thought best at the time-and he at least believes in what he is doing. Every decision he makes has been approved by the Congress-not that I think they are an all knowing and/or intelligent bunch of people either. It is way to easy for Kerry to stand up and say what was done wrong and how all of our foreign allies will welcome him with open arms when he has not been in the position of trying it. All he has done is stand up with his arms out and his ketchup queen behind him. And if we want to look past the candidates and what we will be putting up with for the next 4 years-lets look at first lady material. Laura Bush has more charm and grace in her little finger than Teresa Heinz Kerry has in her entire family. Do we really want to listen to her insult people for the next 4 years? *sighs* I only think this will be a very close race and I think it too ugly on both sides. I guess it is obvious who I voted for in early voting.
  11. Something I never thought I would say. I have never cared for Nelly or any of the other rappers. But the duo he did with Tim McGraw blew me away. Yes I admit I love Tim anyway, but I was prepared to hate this. Cannot do it tho. Also Seger in any form, Foriegner, Air Supply, CCR.
  12. Hi Lady Cele may I say something and then ask something? Thank you. I think this is a wonderful idea. I can only speak English *looks sad* Please I know it is a terrible burden, but it is one I must bear. I do enjoy reading other languages and puzzling them out. (No it is not quite the same as looking at the pictures and laughing at the words) I find other languages quite interesting so yay for that. Now to my asking. We all know there are translators around. Some are better than others, but none are as good as a real person who takes what you say and tells it to another in their mama language. Would it not be fun to do translations? Oh and yeah - it would be funny. I have tried some of them and my face turned red with the returns when I figured them out. Yes I think it would be fun-cause I know full well I can't do any of the work. But it is just a thought and if this is not the place for my thought then throw it out the window or something. Thank you
  13. Happy Birthday Tas! *hands you a chocolate penguin and a Hug*
  14. This really should not be buried for so long: Subject: Sweet Revenge After 17 years of marriage, a man dumped his wife for his young secretary. His new girlfriend demanded that she wanted to live in the couple's multimillion dollar home, and since the man's lawyers were a little better, he prevailed. He gave his now ex-wife just 3 days to move out. She spent the first day packing her belongings into boxes, crates and suitcases. On the second day, she had the movers come and collect her things. On the third day, she sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining room table by candlelight, put on some soft background music, and feasted on a pound of shrimp, a jar of caviar, and a bottle of Chardonnay. When she had finished, she went into each and every room and deposited afew half-eaten shrimp shells, dipped in caviar, into the hollow of the curtain rods. She then cleaned up the kitchen and left. When the husband returned with his new girlfriend, all was bliss for the first few days. Then slowly, the house began to smell. They tried everything; cleaning & mopping and airing the place out. Vents were checked for dead rodents, and carpets were steam cleaned. Air fresheners were hung everywhere. Exterminators were brought in to set off gas canisters, during which they had to move out for a few days, and in the end they even paid to replace the expensive wool carpeting. Nothing worked. People stopped coming over to visit... Repairmen refused to work in the house...The maid quit.. Finally, they could not take the stench any longer and decided to move. A month later, even though they had cut their price in half, they could not find a buyer for their stinky house. Word got out, and eventually, even the local realtors refused to return their calls. Finally, they had to borrow a huge sum of money from the bank to purchase a new place. The ex-wife called the man, and asked how things were going. He told her the saga of the rotting house. She listened politely, and said that she missed her old home terribly, and would be willing to reduce her divorce settlement in exchange for getting the house back... Knowing his ex-wife had no idea how bad the smell was, he agreed on a price that was about 1/10th of what the house had been worth... But only if she were to sign the papers that very day. She agreed, and within the hour, his lawyers delivered the paperwork. A week later, the man and his new girlfriend stood smirking as they watched the moving company pack everything to take to their new home....including the curtain rods.
  15. And just out of curiosity one might ask Are you intending to use the spork after the kilt lifter? Cause that might be painful.
  16. Happy b-Day to all of yall!!!! Happy Birthday and very best wishes to Valdar and Astralis! Aardvark-I found this for you. Knock Knock Who's there ! Aardvark ! Aardvark who ? Aardvark a million miles for one of your smiles ! And that was before I knew it was your birthday. And Parm-*WEG* this is for you: Three guys, one Irish, one English, and one Scottish, are out walking along the beach together one day. They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it. "I will give you each one wish, that's three wishes in total", says the Genie. The Scottish guy says, "I am a fisherman, my Dad's a fisherman, his Dad was a fisherman and my son will be one too. I want all the oceans full of fish for all eternity." So, with a blink of the Genie's eye FOOM! the oceans were teaming with fish. The Englishman was amazed, so he said, "I want a wall around England, protecting her, so that no one will get in for all eternity." Again, with a blink of the Genie's eye POOF! there was a huge wall around England. The Irishman asks, "I'm very curious. Please tell me more about this wall." The Genie explains, "well, it's about 150 feet high, 50 feet thick, protecting England so that nothing can get in or out." The Irishman says, "Fill it up with water."
  17. She felt sick and left early from work. You parked across the drive-you’re such a jerk. her head is pounding from behind her eyes. Lightning and thunder in the distant sky. She walks thru the door-so sick she can’t think And there you are at the bathroom sink She is tired and she is stressed Clothes strewn all over and you look depressed. She knows she should not say it-She should just be quiet But she has to ask “Are you going out tonight?” Cause if you are for that dress you’re too chubby Put on some pants man-you are my hubby.
  18. Funny Thoughts Where did hamsters live before we put them in cages as a pet? Why do people say "no offense" when they're about to offend someone? Why do they have the back pain medicine on the bottom shelf at the pharmacy? They have a show called "Unsolved Mysteries." What other kind of mysteries are there? Do they make coffins wider for dead fat people or is it a 1 size fits all kind of thing? If Santa lives at the North Pole... where does the Easter bunny live? Does Jell-o EVER go bad? There usually isn’t an expiration date on it? When the person who writes the obituaries dies, who writes their obituary? Why do old men have hair in their ears? Why are buttons on guys' shirts on a different side than girls' shirts? If bunnies don't lay eggs why is it on Easter that we hide eggs from the Easter Bunny? Why are things typed up but written down? How come u can kill a deer and put it on your wall but its a illegal to keep them as a pet? Why does caregiver and caretaker mean the same thing? In some books, why do they have blank pages at the very end? If you were on a plane going the speed of sound and walked from the back of the plane to the front, would you be walking faster than the speed of sound? If the universe is expanding, what is it expanding into? What does OK actually mean? what does the K in K-mart actually stand for? Why do we feel blue? and what color does a smurf feel when they are down? Why can't you eat pancakes for dinner? Why do donuts have holes? Why do the numbers on a phone go one way and the numbers on the calculator go the other? Why don't you hear thunder with heat lightning? Is light still faster than sound when it's going through your TV, and if so, when you get a live broadcast from China or something shouldn't all the sounds come after the actions? Do the different "M&M's"® colors taste different? If your born at exactly midnight is your birthday on both those days? If you're caught "between a rock and a hard place", is the rock not hard? If one man says, "it was an uphill battle," and another says, "it went downhill from there," how could they both be having troubles? Why is it you can walk down a road, even if it goes uphill? Why do we say "bye bye" but not "hi hi"? Can blind people be dyslexic when they read Braille? How do you handcuff a one-armed man? Why is the abbreviation for pound lb. when l or b isn't in the word pound?
  19. Happy Birthday (whispers softly to Asyhela-do you think we need a fan to help with the candles?) :wizzie:

  23. "The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not. The cure for it is occupation."

  24. Ah X Sabre-never pout cause you are unique You will need to get there early. Did you go last year? The traffic was better than the year before because they created an extra lane to exit direct but still it looked like a major pain. *Makes you wonder how you can sell out a cow pasture, don't it???
