Big Top by Rob Harrell for April 21, 2009

Happy Tuesday to all! Coffee is ready, and there’s bagels, donuts , and Danish pastries. DF, I put aside a raisen cinnamon bagel just for you.

Carmy: I hope that you’re not feeling too bad today.

Good morning everyone. I’ll go warm up the coffee since Marg’s has gotten a little cool. Carmy, I’ll just start the day by sending good thoughts if you need it. Under Akenta’s helmet, her hair is brown. My hair is closer to black (with more and more silver strands everyday), thick, wavy, and unruly. I don’t think I’ve really tried to picture anyone here - I just go by the avatar and what is said. Hope everyone has a good day!!

mornin all! Coffee sounds GREAT! Helps to get the cobwebs out of my head!

Carmy hope you feel better today!

Akenta, I imagine what we look like, but at times, the screen name and avatar become entwined, so I know what you’re sayin’!

Now how did he get back to earth so fast? LOL! This strip is pretty good! Rob had a priceless little gem here!

Morning All, I am doing okay today. The yuckiness from chemo is fickle, it hits when you’re not expecting it too. Marg, Thanks for the breakfast fixings. I told you my hair was dark, but I forgot to say that it is black with some silver/white here and there. My hair was light to medium brown when I was much younger. It got darker with age I guess. Doc, I thought you were already 47. So I am a year and some weeks older than you. Glad you had a good time yesterday ;) Did you all read what commic posted last night? He IS a jolly pirate, so much fun. We got past 100 on the posts too!

Oh yeah, he did get back PDQ. Dusty left Mars in the dust.

JFri I left you a message at 9 to 5!

Dry replied at 9 to 5! Notebook got a virus last night so I may be even scarcer than I expected! Keep that scurvy pirate in line while I’m gone!

So much for the Martian Chronicle. I think you have the right idea Carmy, if you can keep expecting them, you may be able to hold the yuckiness at bay. God bless. BTW I brought some Pixie Mate Chai, mixed 1:2 parts milk. Enjoy your day.

Everyone, Thank you so much for all your kindness. It is very much appreciated. :) Have a good day! I’ll be back later this afternoon.

Thanks for the bagel Marg, I also hope you’re feeling alright Carmy. My sister is a survivor, but the chemo used to really throw her.

Joy Beautiful photos, beautiful verses, beautiful music! THANKS for sharing!!!

Now, how did you get an e-mail clipped and pasted into your comment here?

Joy wow thanks so much for that post. i put it on facebook and sending it to all my friends. also im with Dry who did you do that?

Good day to all. sorry i ran out last night with out saying bye. my bro got on then my dad so i couldnt get it back. well going see what i missed then eat some lunch. quizons on the way.

Joy if I know my pirates (and I think I do) I’m guessing it’s that youthful spirit that’s causing him to bug you soooo much! Pirate joke I saw a pirate once who had a ship’s wheel sticking out of his pants. I asked him if it was uncomfortable. He answered, “Aye! It’s driving me nuts!”. As long as we’re giving weights, I’m 230 pounds on my way down to 220 or 225.

okay so i am 5’5” not sure how much a weigh. i have lost the scale somewhear. and ive been working out lately. i am big bonded also, truly. :) i have blue eyes also. when i am mad they turn green. my hair is dirty blound. as you see in the pic. it turns more yellowish durring the summer.

Dry how did you guess me to be a blond? it is more brown now then before. :( i liked my blond hair.

Joy im here now. i was on the trampoline and now im here suposed to be doing hw but this is better. lol

Joy I’m trying to come and get some of those deeeelicious beans but there’s some stupid pirate blocking the inlet! I’m doing all this from the Blackberry! Lot’s of scrolling!

Joy save me some of them beans!

BTW, hi tabby!

tabby I just had these images of what everyone would look like, and I pictured you as a blond! My youngest son was blond until he was about in 9th grade, it still lightens in the summer, but not much. Never knew where the blond came from, except my aunt, my mom’s sister was blond when she was a kid. A blond itallian, funny! Only blond anywhere in our family!

okay guys. i am going to run this pass you all. need some opions. i have to write a paper for my final progect in ap english. i am writing my essay on the affects of media on the youth. i had to pose a question out of it. so this is that i got so far…. “How does the media affect the youth of today with the things show on tv. How has the language and content changed for the worse?” so that would be the question. it has to be atleast 2 questions like that. so what do you all think? should i change it up some? and also if you have any ideas on what i should write i will cite you. :D just to bug my teacher. thanks guys!!!

Dry that was a good guess. HI Jfri hope you both had a great day. need to find my chapstick. be back soon.

Hi, Dry! So what was your mental image of me? Now that I’m getting a tan I’m back to being tall, dark and two out of three ain’t bad instead of tall, pasty white & one out of three is pathetic!

i saw this on a sticker and wanted to share it with y’all..

Never take advice from a sticker

if you do what it says you lose, if you dont do what it says you lose. so what do you do?

that was cute tabby

Why JFri I have you pictured as tall, dark, and handsome! :-)

leaving work now, will be back when I get home!

“Enthusiasm is the greatest asset in the world. It beats money, power, and influence.” -unknown

this is why i have and igoogle home page… for jokes like this. stupid people who do stupid things.

2 Guys Two Canadian guys, Mike and Rob were on the roof, laying tile, when a sudden gust of wind came and knocked down their ladder. “I have an idea, ” said Mike. “We’ll throw you down, and then you can pick up the ladder.”

“What, do you think I’m stupid? I have an idea. I’ll shine my flashlight, and you can climb down on the beam of light.”

“What, do you think I’m stupid? You’ll just turn off the flashlight when I’m halfway there.”

“More beans!?!? I think you boys have had enough beans!”. Blazing Saddles

That is a great movie, JFri. That joke was funny, too, tabby. Thought I might as well say hi at least once today. Today was a whopper for me, but the hard part is over now. I don’t know why we are describing our hair color, but mine is a light brown that streaks blond in the summer.

“Kindness is Love with its workboots on!!!!”

joy yes you do!!! you ALL need to put one up. i did it so can you. and its still up. so come one who is next? just think, this way if we ever see eachother on the street we would know that its them. lol :D

why do i want to be a teacher? why do i want to be a techer? why do i want to be a teacher?

to teach. to be a role modle for kids like my teacher are to me. to shape the minds of kids and get them intrested in learning. to make learning fun.to make a difference in this crazy world. to fulfill the job God has given me. to shape them into children who have no limits to what they can do. so when they get to my friends and teachers now, they wont be crazy and bad. to make them want to grow up and be teachers.

wow that is easy on here. now if i could put that all in a great well writen essay on one page/ typed. Lord help me.

Sorry i made you all my gunnie pigs, i just feel relaxed on here.

tabby, I think I’ll brave the hoarding crowds and do it after bit.

Just spent 30 minutes with verizon trying to get my e-mail fixed! The support team must be in India. I could hear other techs in the background, male & female and they were all Indian. He was very nice and a big help, and I could understand him!

I always worry about turning my computer over like that, even if the site is “Secure”!

I’ll be back. Gotta watch my recorded soap from today!

Dry i had to get rid of norton and they wanted me to hand over my computer to them and let them do it all form there on line. im like “are you crazy!!”

G’night Joy. Tabby that was well written, just need four or five more paragraphs. You are lucky to feel so drawn to a profession, I have had a divil of a time finding one for me. Dry I feel ya. I hate letting the “techies” do anything to my computer, but that comes from me being paranoid, glad it worked out for you.

“You can call me whatever you like, just don’t call me late for dinner.” -My Grandfather.

Marg don’t tell me you’re falling for that scurvy pirate, too? Maybe he will post his pictutre. Then you will know just what kind of character he is. I will probably post mine on Friday with my 32 pound friend! Boy, am I missing my computer! The shop here in Spokane said it might be ready in the morning…hope they’re right!

Marg pay no attention to that scurvy JFri! Aye, I will be postin’ me picture soon! Maybe on Friday as well! Depends on how good me wi-fi signal is on the ship if ye know what I mean?
