Good Saturday Morning, Crew!

[Clintmax]

:donut::hi:
And welcome to the Saturday edition of the Early Morning Crew thread! :bounce: We made it to the weekend! :woohoo: Today is the day that, when we were kids, we'd get up early because the cartoons would start at 6am and run all morning long! The "Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Show" lasted two hours and we'd roll on the floor in gales of laughter no matter how many times we'd seen the same one! :rofl:

I hope you had a good week, with little stress and you now have some nice plans for the next two days! :bounce: I, myself, have to work today...but I'm off tomorrow, so I at least get one of the two days off! :woohoo:

SO!...are you ready to get this day started with me? It's time, you know! RISE AND SHINE! :bounce:

2. IBTL!

Haha= sorry, Lounge reflex. Thank you for the Bugs Bunny reference, by the way. You're adorable. :D :D :hi: :donut:

[Clintmax]

5. Good Morning, Miss Sugar!

:hi::hug:
Well thank you! You're adorable too, my dear! :loveya: I LOVED the Bugs Bunny show! I wish they still played it every Saturday.

[Sugar Smack]

17. Why Cartoon Network cancelled it is beyond me.

It was a classic. It showed us how to live.

[Clintmax]

25. I agree!

The cartoons on the C.N. are all...I don't know...strange?

[Sugar Smack]

36. And POORLY ANIMATED.

*sorry, another reflex* :rofl: :patriot:

[Clintmax]

39. Don't apologize...it's the damned truth!

I completely agree with you! I guess we'll just have to go buy the Looney Tunes Golden Collection DVD's if we ever want to see them again.

[In_The_Wind]

3. GOOD MORNING!

[Clintmax]

6. Good Morning, Miss Joan!

:hi::hug:
How are you this AM?

[In_The_Wind]

13. Happy!

How did your puppy enjoy eating raw carrots?

[Clintmax]

19. WOOHOO!

I need to get down there before she moves as well! But I'm not sure I can...I'll just have to see what my schedule is like. Tony LOVES carrots and will eat as many as we'll give him! He's hilarious with them too...we buy the baby carrots and he'll walk around with one sticking out of his mouth for a few minutes before he starts eating it! :rofl: He looks so cute when he does that! :rofl:

[In_The_Wind]

24. He will probably also like:

strawberries, cantaloupe and watermelon

[Clintmax]

26. I think we've given him Strawberries...

and he liked those too! Haven't tried Cantaloupe or Watermelon yet.

[billyskank]

75. Hi Joani ~

:hug: :loveya: :hi:

[In_The_Wind]

145. Hi billyskank ~

:loveya:

[AirmensMom]

103. Good Morning, Joani!

I see we drink the same brand of coffee.

[In_The_Wind]

146. I'm glad we do.

I don't want to pack coffee beans into my luggage on the plane.

[Random_Australian]

4. Missed again! Morning Clint. Owya goin mate?

[Clintmax]

7. Hail, Random!

:hi:
:rofl: I'm doing just fine! I hope you're having a good weekend so far! :bounce: You may as well just give up trying to beat me to the first punch, Mate! :rofl: I'm too fast! :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

16. No way mate, you have to get lucky every time, and I have to just once!

Anyway, I *may* have heard once over an ad on the T.V. a song that had lyrics that could be construed as similar to the title of that song. Closer, closer! Just 19864 more days until one I recognise!

[Clintmax]

28. ROFL!

You're right about me having to be lucky every time. I'll just have to make sure I am! :rofl: ONLY, 19,864, huh? Hey, you never know!

[Random_Australian]

32. Aye, aye. Anyway, howeth goeth AmericA?

Don't you think it looks better with the end A in upper case?
I wonder if it works for Oz.... AustraliA. yep, that is cool.

[Clintmax]

34. I don't know, Mate...

I've always hated it when people TyPe lIkE THis aNd cApitOlIZe tHe WrOnG leTTerS. x( :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

42. wellitisbetterthantyping all lower case with no spaces at all.

And I mean, institutionalised, proper just the last letter capitalisation.

[Clintmax]

44. Yes, I hate it when people write like that too.

Proper capitalization, spacing, etc. Please! :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

46. Ugh! Oh well, on the bright side, today's song of the day looks good.

I wonder how it will sound. (Hey, yesterday's just came on my playlist.... good song that.... though I did recieve it a day late, no fault to anyone.....)

Me? Subtly ensuring I get sent todays? What, with mindcontrol? Would I EVER do a thing like that?


-------------------------------
Anyway, more seriously, a bhuddist walks up to a hot-dog vendor and says "make me one with everything".

:):):P:):):):D

[Clintmax]

47. Don't worry...it's uploading now.

Since you're logged on Gmail right now, you should see it appear in a few minutes. Unless, of course, it has problems and doesn't get delivered to you until tomorrow again. I wonder why it does that?

[Random_Australian]

48. Yeah! Anyway, downloading now. I'm waiting in great anticipation

that I might habe heard a few seconds of this song before.

Wow! It's done!

[Clintmax]

53. Wow! That's good!

I hope you like it, Random! :bounce:

[Random_Australian]

55. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF THE LOUNGE, LET'S HERE IT FOR CLINTMAX!

[Clintmax]

58. ROFL! Wow!

Look at all the smilies! :rofl: I take it you enjoyed the song! Thank you, Mate! :hug:

[Random_Australian]

60. You could say I enjoyed the song. You culd say I heard it on an

advertisement and have been looking for it for years.

[Clintmax]

62. Oh, Wow!

I know what it feels like to FINALLY find a song you've been looking for! I'm glad I could help, Random! :bounce:

[Random_Australian]

64. You're gald? me too. Good, good good morning Clintmax.

(I know have that song playing on repeat....)

[Clintmax]

65. LOL! I do that too!

Especially when I've been looking for a song for a long time and FINALLY find it! I play it over and over.

[Random_Australian]

66. Hells yeah! Rock on, buddy. These daily songs are COOL.

My internet is finally reaching acceptable price levels, so your songs aren't doing any damage by the way.

[Clintmax]

67. That's good news!

I'm happy for you then, Random! I'd HATE to have to pay like you were! x(

[Random_Australian]

76. As for the amount spent on preventing me from going stir crazy this

WEEK (stuck here with no-one to talk to)
$20! x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(x(xx(x(

[Clintmax]

79. Damn.

I feel bad now. That's $80.00 a month. x( DOUBLE what I pay for unlimited internet access.

[Random_Australian]

81. Nah, it drops to $40 a month when uni resumes.

Anyway, now I do the traditional stoppong of the music and typing in silence for a few minutes, then starting up that song again.;)

[Clintmax]

86. I'm glad you're enjoying it, Mate!

If the cost gets to be too much, let me know and I'll stop. :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

90. *bliss* this is great.

The songs cost about 12c each - not costly.

[Clintmax]

94. That's not too bad I don't guess.

I'm glad you're enjoying them!

[Random_Australian]

91. dupe dupe dupe KOALA dupe dupe

[Clintmax]

96. Don't you just hate it when that happens?

x(

[Random_Australian]

99. At least it gives me the opportunity to write weird subject lines.

Random ones, at least.
Did you ever guess I like random things?

[Clintmax]

104. Um...yes, I sure did!

You're random all over the place! :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

105. That, my friend, was the best deep fried aardvark's

watermelon's way of putting it I have heard yet.

P.S. you aren't starting up that double entendre thing we once had again are you.... no?
pity, that was so funny! good.

[Clintmax]

110. LOL!

That thought never even crossed my mind, Mister! :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

118. ;) Sure it didn't. To cross the mind of Clintmax, you need hiking

equipment. And last time I was in english, did I see any phrase or double entendre toting a pick?
I THINK NOT!

Goodnightish Clintmax! (May post a little more but thought I'd get that in before you left. Thanks for the song again btw)

[Clintmax]

120. You're welcome, Random!

I'm glad you're enjoying it! And what do you mean you need hiking boots to cross my mind? *taps foot*
:rofl:
Good night, Mate!

[Random_Australian]

123. geez, tell a man he has a vast mind and he gets really insulted,

so I'll try this: Clintmax runs around in circles when he thinks no-one is looking!

[Random_Australian]

124. oooooh look what I learned to do! (sigline) (I think)

[Clintmax]

127. That's neat...but why?

:shrug:

[Clintmax]

125. I didn't get insulted.

You took that all wrong, Mister Man. :rofl:

Damn...and I thought no one was looking...

[Random_Australian]

130. Well, when I change my sigline to

'DemocRATs suck' I can hastily cross it out when admin looks! ;)

;):):):)

I might choose that sigline, actually, and see what people think.....
hmmmm.... It is very random buT is might have conSequences. Hidden message is in the uppercase letters.

That's my bed calling me, saying "moo! moo!" as it always does, so "Good night".
Or, as a bilingual chinese person might say.... if they learnt German and misspelt it "Güden nacht"

[Hugin]

8. *blink* *blink*

Good morning!

:hi:

[Clintmax]

11. Good Morning, Prag!

:hi:
*grin*
*blink* *blink* indeed! The sound effect they used for that always cracked me up too! :rofl:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

9. Good morning, Clintmax!

[Clintmax]

12. Hail, Starbucks!

:hi:
The weekend is here! :woohoo: How the heck are ya?

[Starbucks Anarchist]

20. A little "medicated" right now.

;)

[Clintmax]

29. Oh, yeah?

Hmmmm....:rofl: Should I even ask? :shrug:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

33. No, you probably shouldn't.

:D

[Clintmax]

35. Well, okay then...

Moving right along...:rofl:

[Heidi]

10. Mornin', sunshine!

I'm glad you have tomorrow off, Clint. :hug:

[Clintmax]

14. MISS HEIDI!

:bounce::hi::hug::loveya:
It's always a pleasure to see you! How have you been? I've missed you! :hug:

[Heidi]

23. Thank you, Clintmax!

I'm OK; working harder than usual. I've missed you, too. :hug:

How are your sweet little Tony and Bandit? :hug:

[Clintmax]

31. They are both just as loveable as they can be!

Bandit, however, has become un-housebroken and we don't know why or how to fix it. x( Any suggestions?

[Heidi]

37. You should ask in the pet forum, Clint.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=243

For what it's worth, I've read all sorts of explanations for that problem. Ginger always does his business outside, except on two occasions he did it indoors _in_ the litter box. Once it was when he had collitis, and the other time, he had a urinary tract problem caused (the doctor said) by eating cheap dry cat food and a "too white" diet of only chicken and fish.

We've learned that any time we notice a change in Ginger's potty behavior, he's trying to tell us something.

I'll send Bandit, you and Greekspeak some good vibes. :hug:

[Clintmax]

43. Thanks for the info, Miss Heidi!

I've heard that a cat having a urinary tract infection can make them un-litter box trained. I think we'll just take him to the vet and have him checked out. Thank you for the good vibes. :hug:

[billyskank]

70. Hi, Heidi

:hi:

[Heidi]

83. billy!

[LaurenG]

15. Good Morning Clintmax!

I haven't checked in lately but I've been reading the thread after you've "left the building" (work makes it hard to check in some days, lol). I wish you a happy day as you go about doing good. :hi: :loveya: :hug:

[In_The_Wind]

18. Good Morning OhioBlues.

:loveya:

[LaurenG]

21. Hi Joani!!!

How are you? :loveya:

[In_The_Wind]

27. I'm doing great!

Everything looks better than ever! This Is Going To Be A Wonderful Year!

[LaurenG]

30. Yay!!!

:bounce:

[Clintmax]

22. Good Morning, Miss Ohio!

:hi::hug::loveya:
It's good to see you today, my dear! I know it's tough when you're at work. We don't have internet access at the store (well...only e-mail) so I couldn't log on at work even if I DID have the time. I wish you a fantastic weekend too! :bounce:

[billyskank]

71. Hi, OhioBlues

:loveya:

[LaurenG]

113. Good morning Billyskank

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[AirmensMom]

107. Good morning, Ohio!

:donut: :hi: :loveya: :hug:

[LaurenG]

117. Good morning Airmensmom!

I hope you have a great day and harleydad gets back soon!:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[AirmensMom]

121. Thanks, Ohio!

He got back at around 3:30 AM and is sleeping now. I'm very relieved. :D

I hope you have a great day, too! :loveya: :hug: :hi:

[Hissyspit]

38. Morning!

Chores today, as well as more grading. North Carolina is supposed to the thunderstorms that have done so much damage in central U.S., today, so I have to herd up the cats and keep them all inside.

[Clintmax]

40. Good Morning, Hissy!

:hi:
YIKES! I hope they miss you and you don't have any problems today. Storms sucks! (as Bevis & Butthead used to say :rofl:)

[Hissyspit]

41. Well, it's definitely going to rain here.

Just have to make sure I keep all the cats in.

[Clintmax]

45. Yes you will.

Wet cats are NO fun. :rofl: We're supposed to have a couple of thunderstorms today too, and I'm sure it will since I had my car washed and waxed yesterday afternoon. x(

[sbj405]

49. Good morning, Clint!

No work this weekend. Unfortunately, the weather looks like it will be rainy.

[Clintmax]

51. Good Morning, SBJ!

:hi:
I'm glad you don't have to work! I hate it when the weekend is rainly like that so you can't get out and do anything outside. x(

[sbj405]

54. Yeah, it's ok. Pllenty of relaxing to be done inside

I just a new shipment of netflix movies

[Clintmax]

56. That's good!

I love to relax and watch some good movies also! "Brokeback Mountain" here I come! :bounce:

[tjwmason]

50. Good morning Clint.

:hi:

I'm afraid that this will be a flying visit as I'm about to go out shopping, just need to grab my jacket, keys, wallet, mobile and that sort of stuff.

I'm in a super happy mood today, a new C.D. arrived - Tomas Luis da Victoria (1548-1611) - it has two Masses (Missa Gaudeamus, and Missa pro Victoria) along with a bunch of shorter anthems/motets. I listened to it over breakfast and it really is the most gorgeous thing. :bounce: :bounce:

Sorry to hear that you have to work today, at least you get tomorrow off - that's the problem with us grumpy consumers wanting to shop at the week-ends. :eyes:

Hope that you have a good day nonetheless.

:hug:

[Clintmax]

52. Hail, TJ!

:hi::hug:
I'm glad I get to at least say "Hello" to ya today! :bounce: Buy me something cool while you're out, Ok? I love getting new CD's in the mail like that! Enjoy it, my friend!

[billyskank]

74. Hi mason

Perhaps I missed you and you are already shopping :hi:

[tjwmason]

136. I didn't stay out for long

This weather is just too gorgeous to be anywhere other than an English garden.

So here's me giving a :toast: to the folk who came up with lap-tops and wireless internet connexions. :bounce:

I even got some English strawberries - I suspect that they were grown under those hideous poly-tunnels, but they still smell like proper (i.e., English) strawberries. :9 They'll go very well with pre-lunch gin tomorrow I think. :bounce:

[billyskank]

140. Yes the weather is good here too

:bounce:

[tjwmason]

144. Must resist inclination to make bad joke about northern weather.

:P

Glad to hear it, the whole place (including the people) become so much happier when the weather is good. Thankfully, I've only seen one man without his shirt on, and as he was doing some pretty vigorous work cleaning his drive (of what I'm not sure) so he can be excused. I mean, among admirers of the male body, I come pretty high up there - but why is it that it's nearly always the chaps who can't quite pull it off who remove their shirts?

Now I just need Xema here to explain what the different birds, merrily chirping in the garden, are.

:bounce:

[billyskank]

148. The little ones with white bits on their cheeks are sparrows

The smaller ones are dunnocks, I think. Oh, and the larger black ones with yellow beaks are blackbirds, of course. They flick their tails on landing, apparently. And the females are brown, not black.

Okay, that's my bird knowledge exhausted. :)

[SeattleGirl]

57. Clintmax!!!

Nice to see you! Thanks for the Saturday morning cartoon memories! They were my FAVS!! :bounce: And of course, in the afternoon, there was American Bandstand! :bounce: Loved that show! Saturdays just aren't the same. :cry:

Today was somewhat stressful for me, but this too shall pass. It's supposed to be very nice here this weekend, so I will be doing lots of work in the yard, AND doing the annual barbeque kick-off!!! :toast:

Nice to see you, my friend. :hug: :loveya:

[Clintmax]

59. Good Morning, Miss Seattle!

:hi::bounce::loveya:
It's nice to see you too, my dear! Oh, to be a kid again! They were my favorites too and I LOVED American Bandstand also! That, and Solid Gold. Remember THAT one? :rofl: Sounds like you have a great weekend planned! I wish I could be there to share it with you! :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

61. Solid Gold! And how about Midnight Special?

Ever see that one?

[Clintmax]

63. Yes...saw that one too!

Remember "NightTracks" on TBS? I used to watch those all the time too! :woohoo:

[SeattleGirl]

68. Oh yes, I do

:toast: :bounce: :toast:

[Clintmax]

73. LOVED NightTracks!

When I was in High School, we'd go on Speech Tournaments and those of us in the room would watch it all night long even though we'd have rounds the next day! :rofl:

[billyskank]

72. Hi SG!

:hug:

[AirmensMom]

128. Good morning, SG!

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

[billyskank]

69. Hi Clinticles

:hi:

[Clintmax]

77. Hail, Billy!

:hi::bounce:
There's that nickname again! :rofl: How are ya today, my friend!

[billyskank]

80. I am okay thanks

I have so much stuff to do today, because I promised that tomorrow I would drive down to London to give some people a lift all the way up to Birmingham, which is pretty much going to take all day. So much for the weekend, huh? :)

[Clintmax]

84. Yeah, especially if you're going to drive to Birmingham, Alabama!

:rofl:
Busy weekend, Billy!

[billyskank]

88. Nope: Birmingham, West Midlands

or, as tjwmason calls it, The North. :eyes:

[Clintmax]

95. Ah.

And here I was going to drive up there to meet you, Man! :rofl:

[billyskank]

138. That would be really neat

:bounce:

[AirmensMom]

108. Billy!

[billyskank]

139. AirmensMom!

:loveya:

[riona]

78. Fl check-in

Morning Clint. Turns out that accident was the mother of a bride to be and relatives who had come into town earlier in the evening. All 3 were killed, 2 others critically injured. It collision with a pick-up truck (who's driver had alcohol on his breath). Still no rain here - not good.

[Clintmax]

82. Hail, Flblu!

:hi:
Oh, gods. What a sad thing, Man.

[AirmensMom]

119. flblu2 ...

That sounds horrible! What are you talking about? Where did it happen? :cry:

[riona]

131. Yesterday I mentioned

to Clint that there was a really bad accident in an intersection nearby that we frequently use. Apparently, the bride to be's mother was driving her own sister and the bride's cousins who had come into town earlier for the wedding back to her home (it was late, 3a.m.). They were hit on the driver's side by a guy from Lakeland (with a not too stellar driving record and liquor on his breath). There weren't any skid marks. The mother, and 2 cousins died, the sister and another niece are in critical condition. Since the mother had done the major planning and work on the wedding, it will go as planned today. Very sad

[AirmensMom]

137. How tragic!

:cry: That's just terrible. :(

[AirmensMom]

85. Good morning, Clintmax!

:donut: :hi: :hug:

Good to see you!

Guess what? Harleydad is home! He rolled in at around 3:30AM. I stayed up most of the night waiting, but finally had to go to bed. Of course, the kitties woke me up early.

We got new lamps in the bedroom -- the kind you just touch and they turn on. Satchmo decided to turn one on. It worked. I'm awake. :rofl:

[Clintmax]

92. Good Morning, Miss Airmens!

:hi::hug::loveya:
I'm glad to see you! :bounce: I'm happy Mister Harley is home now! I'm sure you are too! :bounce: The touch lamps are nice, yes, but now Satchmo has another weapon in his arsenal of things to wake you up with! :rofl::rofl:

My Bandit has become un-litterbox trained for some reason. x( Greekspeak and I can't figure out WHY. At least he goes right in front of the box instead of on the carpet somewhere else in the house.

[AirmensMom]

97. You're right.

What was I thinking! :banghead:

Have you changed litters? Even if you haven't, perhaps Bandit decided he didn't like what's in there. Sabrina did that after we had used the same litter for almost 8 years. We switched to Dr. Elsey's (from Petsmart). They also have one called Cat Attract, which I hear works very well. You might also want to take him in for a checkup. Kitties can get a urinary blockage that becomes serious and the first sign often is inappropriate peeing.

[Clintmax]

101. No, we haven't changed litter...

But I think we're going to. He doesn't urinate outside the box...just number two. x( We're going to take him to the vet for a checkup...hopefully he doesnt' have any problems. *crosses fingers*

[AirmensMom]

106. Oh ... I misunderstood.

Usually it's peeing. But the pooping also makes sense that he might not like the litter. I'll cross my fingers. We were scratching our heads for quite a while with Sabrina. But it turned out that she also had food allergies and her tummy was upset. She's fine now, and sitting beside me in her favorite little place. :loveya:

Here's a cute pic (the kitty, not me) ...
http://journals.democraticunderground.com/AirmensMom/35

Ain't he a doll?

Oh, how could I forget? We had our inspections and appraisal yesterday! :bounce: We only have to fix a few little things. We won't know how the appraisal came out until next week, but our realtor is pretty confident. Just another one of those hurdles. :D

[Clintmax]

109. Awww! What a cutie!

I love it when they are in that kind of mood! (to cuddle) Sounds like things are proceeding apace! Im glad you don't have to fix a whole lot of stuff! :bounce:

[AirmensMom]

111. Thanks.

I'm totally in love with the little guy. :loveya:

Oh, here's the best part -- most of the stuff that we have to fix is stuff the builder did and the last inspector passed. Go figure. :shrug: For instance, the sensors on the garage door are too high off the ground.

[Clintmax]

112. Well that ought to take all of five minutes to fix!

:rofl:
Some things they worry about, I swear!

[AirmensMom]

116. Would you believe ...

he took a glass of water up on the roof to pour into the rain gauge to test whether the sprinklers would turn off if it was raining! You mean that has to work?! And he also called the company that made our thermostat when he couldn't get it to heat above 82 degrees. We just bought the damn thing in November and I was prepared to be pissed off if he said we had to buy a new one. But he found out how to override the setting. Who wants to heat their house above 82 degrees in Florida? :wtf:

He was really nice, though. He told the buyer, "I can tell when they clean the house for the inspection and when it's just plain a clean house. This is a very clean house!" The buyer was just beaming. He sat there with his associate talking about how to arrange his furniture. :rofl:

[Clintmax]

122. Yay!

I wouldn't want to heat my house to that warm in Florida! Good gods! :rofl: Sounds like your buyer is one happy individual! :bounce:

[AirmensMom]

126. Well, this dude is big.

Somehow I don't think he'd want it much above 70 any time of year! :rofl:

He certainly is happy! :bounce: He's going to bring some pizza over one of these days so we can have a little party and show him how to work thing like the pool pump and light timers. :D I've never even heard of buyers and sellers getting together before closing, but this guy practically lives here already. We were like that with the land -- had a picnic on it the very next day after they accepted our offer. :rofl: I don't mind. I love this house and I'm really glad he's so excited about it.

[Clintmax]

129. I'm happy to hear it!

If it makes him happy to buy you Pizza and stuff, more power to him, says I! :rofl: I'm glad he's all excited about it too! Is he a first time home buyer?

[AirmensMom]

132. Well, l think he can afford a pizza

with the money he saved. He can buy a whole truckload of 'em! :rofl: No, he's not a first-time buyer ... and he's a realtor! I guess he really likes the house! He said yesterday that he was really happy to find a home without carpeting and it's a bonus that he likes it, too. I guess he didn't want to do ANY remodeling! We have our walls painted all sorts of colors and he's going to leave them. He says it's a happy house. :bounce:

So next week I get to get ready for a visit from my Mom. She'll be here for two weeks starting May 2 -- her last FL vacation. I told her I'm going to put her to work helping me pack. (Actually, I won't start packing yet, but I had to tease her about it.)

[Clintmax]

133. Oh well then!

A realtor! And he even likes your wall colors! So much the better! Yes, you have to tease...it's in the laws somewhere I'm SURE! :rofl: Now, I need to get outta here and get ready for work, my dear! I hope you have a great weekend! :bounce::loveya:

[AirmensMom]

135. It was nice seeing you!

Thanks for starting my morning out so nicely. Have a great day at work! Say hello to greekspeak. :loveya: :hug: :hi:

[Clintmax]

142. I sure will!

It was nice seeing you this morning too! Greekspeak says Hello to you too! :bounce::loveya: talk to you later, My dear!

[Clintmax]

Be right back!

[AirmensMom]

100. I'll be here.

[Clintmax]

102. LOL! I'm back now.

:rofl:

[Minnesota Libra]

89. Morning all - hope everyone is doing fine and looking forward to..........

....to this weekend. I plan to take it easy and give this back of mine a chance to recover a little bit. My T.E.N.S unit will be my constant companion the next few days.:pals:

Other than that I plan to catch me a movie or two on cable and try to think of new and better ways to run all neocons/fundies into the ground.:rofl:

[Clintmax]
