BIG TOP is back!!!!! Oh it was terrible, I was going to kill myself but I ripped my 501s trying to commit suicide jumping out of my mother’s basement window. The nice psychiatrist says I may leave next week but I can’t go home to Mommy. The shrink says I keep mentioning cutting some “Betty” into little pieces but I don’t recall that at all. Anyone care to help me?

We had some rain that came during the night. Small area lost power we didn’t.

My life line would bore others.

I get a lot of my groaners from toons, so if they get too familiar, tell me to stop. I give credit if I remember where the heck I get them.Groaner alert“The worse thing about a night of indiscriminate drinking is digesting those tiny umbrellas”

good morning, Sojo

Good morning, Tribesters and others! Another sunny day.Maybe Spring is finally in full bloom?

Good Morning bmonk – Perhaps it is!

Hah! Replies to comments no longer appear until the list is refreshed…

Spring is sprung, the grass is riz.I wonders where the flowers is.

My roses have been blooming for weeks but the daffodils haven’t started yet.

I think we are still with the early flowers, like tulips.

Good Morning, Montana Lady & Bmonk!

Our pool team won last night. And I shot pretty derned well, if I must say so myself. :^)

Good morning, bmonk.

Congrats ♠Lonewolf♠!

Plods Wif AB I was just talking about the strip today. When hand surgen cut my hands for corporal tunel I don’t think I have that cut mark. I don’t keep on the go like some.I think I scared by daughter. I have a little down time before summer class and needed something small to read as my current book is almost done. By Monday I will start reading assigned book.

Thanks, Sojo. Must have been the “Good Luck” wishes from you & Grog!

Good Morning ♥Kab♥!

This dept I work at has done some things not smart work wise. On scanned documents they stopped one part and I had to lay aside now this higher dept is rethinking after lower bosses talked with them be better to keep certain documents together. Now I either have more then a year or year half to go back over to add. Managment not smart.

Glad it worked for you, Lonewolf.

I keep watching the A-Z comic listing from time to time. I am really looking forward to more comics showing up. In particular, I am seriously hoping that Pearls Before Swine shows up in that listing. One of my all time favorites. I also like Drabble and Arlo & Janis.

Thanks again, Grog.

There is sun. There is lilacs blooming. A high of 67° degrees expected for the day. I can hear the birds. This Is Scary!

Good Morning Aaaaaugh! – Sounds like you would like it better here. Overcast, 57° and some wet stuff sometimes.

Good Morning, LuvH8!54° and drizzle of and on. Not too bad really.

Edit: off

Good morning, Aaaaaugh!

We’re already in the upper 50s, but that’s about as high as we expect. Supposed to be chance of showers (50%+) from now thru Saturday night, when it starts tapering down….Still, it is bright at the moment.

Hello Bmonk!

Is your snow finally all gone?

Hello pseudo!

Hi, friends! A t-storm came through last night. I heard thunder, but it was a very calm storm for this time of year. Overcast today, more chance of rain later. Well, that means I shouldn’t have to worry about watering the tomatoes.

pseudo – Pasted that link into my browser and it didn’t work for me. I guess you meant it when you said it was for Aaaaaugh!.

Hello Rmom!

I can’t edit my picture smaller…….

Hi, Sojo! I’m guessing you got some rain overnight too. I got up and looked at the radar for a little bit.

Good Morning, Rmom & Pseudo!

I could not get that link to work either. :^(

Hi, Wolfie!

I didn’t try the link, as my hubby will be here in about an hour to pick me up for my doctor appointment. Lots of stuff to do, and not lots of time!

Hi pseudo & Rmom.

Hi, Grog!

replacing earlier comment and thereby throwing off the timeline Good Morning, Sojo, Lonewolf, Grog, Bmonk, Pseudo, Smiley Mom & Every Peoples! I imagine I should get out of bed and enjoy this lovely spring day. At the very least, open some windows and let the cheerfulness in. 

Hi, Aaaaagh!

Rmom – Just a little rain with some thunder.

Good one! LOL

Snow is gone for a few weeks already—several days in the 50s will do that. Now the forecast is rain over several days. .Oh, and we do have one flower blooming in profusion: dandelions.

pseudo – Well fitting!

And to think dandelions weren’t even native here!

I miss ehe edit button!

I’ve been looking it up and found I was wrong as they are all over the world. What got be off was it’s widespread distribution here. As they are eddible the earlier pioneers to the west spread seeds along the wagon train trails so following wagon trains would have food. This spread them across the country more than they were if what I was once told is correct.

Eeeewww!

Or dandelion wine! Blanching the leaves first helps get rid of the bitter tast. I’ve had them several times and they are good (to me). They also are at least a good weed bringing nutrients up to shallow root plants.

pseudo – My mom’s folks were poor. All the kids would go through the neighberhood picking weeds to eat for supper. In Boy Scouts I learned a lot of plants you could eat. A lot are in cities and are good eats.

I think all parts you can eat but I’d check that out. Different parts, times of growth, seasons etc. are important in some plants. All of parts of cattails any time of year can be eaten. The roots can be dried and pounder for flour etc. I tried cooking some leaves once but couldn’t get them tender. Also some parts of some plants have to be cooked to be safe.

No way. Mine is the Blues Brother platter, 4 fried chickens & a coke.

LOL

LOL^2!.I’d think the stems might be bitter—milky sap often is. I’m also reminded of rhubarb—the stems are OK, but the leaves are not.

Well all I can tell you is, I ain’t eating it. And if I don’t eat it doesn’t go on any menu I prepare.

 

Time to head home. Put a fork in me, I am done.

See you later maybe pseudo and Grog.

Whew! A bit of a flurry of problem with gocomics there. Couldn’t get on any strips with comments.

That’s OK. I’ll have a real life Pepsi or beer.

Greetings TRIBEI just popped in to say hi on my way by. Garage sale for the next three days. I couldn’t believe how much junk a person can collect. Especially a packrat.

Hello serena – Hope the garage sale goes great!

I’ve said it before.And, I’ll say it again…………………………I’ve learned soooooooooo much by reading the comic pages!!!!! (at least the comments from the comics)You guys are three much!

Just popped dinner in the oven………….Eggplant Parmesan, with Italian sausage and garlic bread and a side salad. As always, this Lady cooks too much for the two of us, and in about 45 minutes, it will be waiting for the Tribe.Enjoy!

Thanks Montana Lady, I’ll enjoy some of it!

I saw it, Johanan. I do my best to carry everyone’s favorites. I try to pick up a little something from everyone’s menu and include them on my own…..with the possible exception of Aaaaaugh’s selections.

Hi & Bye, Doc!

Hi and Bye Doctor Toon.

hello everyone :-)

Hi, ♥Little Sister♥

Good evening everyone. Little Sister are you feeling better?

Good evening, ♥Kab♥

Hello ♥Little Sister♥!

Monday I get my summer class book. What ever happens I will keep all materials. Wish I could done what one did copy the book and then return.

Expensive book, ♥Kab♥?. Are there no used books?

I think $68. I have thought about coping especially used. This would take time and not sure of the savings. I plan to keep all work.

Too bad. I found that used books were a significant discount to the new ones.

For the Jr. college, not. Matter Psychology even changed books. No I’m not taking that class again C was good enough. I verily passed that class.

By the way any Tom Selleck fans out there?

♥Kab♥, I am watching Magnum, P.I. right now.

♥Kab♥ – I like some of the things he’s been in.

I think he is cool to. I have a reason for asking. You are aware he has a detective show on Friday nights finished, but he also does movies series though I think different called Jesse Stone: this one is Innocents Lost this Sunday. I missed his 3 or 4th one.

To make sure I am right I had to look it up for right name. I keep wanting to call the show Stone Cold and not right name.

Jesse Stone will be on CBS Sunday.

I feel better today yes.

Who is Jesse Stone?

Good to hear, ♥Little Sister♥. How’s school going?

♥Kab♥ – You can see info on Tom here.

♥Little Sister♥ – Jesse Stone is a TV movie series Tom was the main actor in. See the link I put up for ♥Kab♥.

♥Little Sister♥ – Glad your feeling better!

The Sojourner I have watched Tom Selleck on Jesse Stone. I used to when he was on Magnum PI. Character Jesse Stone does a lot of drinking but never drunk and very sharp. Reminds me of Lt. Columbo with Peter Falk a gentler side of Jesse Stone.

Tom Selleck has a grown daughter. Not sure if he is still married. His actual home is Hawaii.

Wow, you are really a fan, ♥Kab♥.

Howdy, pseudo.

Well he was here briefly.

I licked Quigley Down Under with Tom in it.

Oh you deleted your comment.

You licked, Sojo?

LOL. Where’s that edit button when you really need it!?!

I have a picture of our Thom Bleumel, but I’m not sharing. Na Na Na Naaaa!

Who licked who…….

What!

Good Evening, TribeI’m watching Da Bulls game. Back later.

Aaaaaugh!!!

I’ll bet he’s no Tom Selleck.

Where’s the EDIT button when you need it?

Sojo apparently licked Tom Selleck the way I read that, ♥Little Sister♥

Good evening, ♠Lonewolf♠. Good luck with the game.

LOL!

But Tom’s old……EEEWWWW!!!!!!!

Just popping in to say they didn’t keep me – either in the hospital or the morgue. Since hubby’s got to get up in not enough hours, it is time for us to head to bed.

Have a good night Rmom.

That left me a bad taste in the mouth. Need a Pepsi.

BRB.

Sleep well, Rmom

Don’t worry Sojo, you know we love you.

You gotta be quick to delete your comments around here.

I missed some licking, was there ice cream involved?

I needed the laugh. Thank you everybody. :-)

Pseudo!No one could get the link to work, was it today’s CowTown?

You’re right though, ♥Little Sister♥. Selleck certainly is a lot older now than when he was doing Magnum which I just finished watching. It doesn’t paint a pretty picture.

One last little test.

Good niught, pseudo.

It worked. :-)

YAY ME! :-)

Good night pseudo.

http://www.gocomics.com/cowtown

Thank you, Pseudo. I like it! I like it!

A few more things I have yet to learn.

I don’t even think ice cream is on the menu – but there is a float on the menu of some kind.

I don’t think I’ve had a laugh like this in a while.

Ummm……….. I haven’t read the middle of the comments list yet.

It is now 7:36 pm people are saying Good Night and I haven’t had my first cup of coffee. There is something seriously wrong with this picture.

Gawd! I love the comics comment section. :-))

The hardest I ever laughed was when I hooked up a high power electric fence charger to a shower stall while my cousin was taking a shower.

I hate to ask what happened then, Sojo.

I didn’t know a person could scream that loud. I ended rolling on the ground almost unable to breath.

Yes yes! What happened!

OOOH! Quite a shocking experience. BWAA_HAAAHAAAHAA!

This reminds me of people who do actually have to try peeing on the electric fence……….  Okay, I was a girl so I got out of that one. But we did test things to see what would shock us.

Well unfortunately, it’s time for me to hit the hay and check out the back of my eyelids. Unless someone else posts, this will be the 200th post. Not bad.

 

Gunite, Tribeandall

Good night Grog.

We had fun on the farm touching people while touching the fence with a plant. That’s not nearly the shock someone gets while being naked standing on wet concrete on the ground and getting direct continual contact with the fence

Hello all I took a shower and letting my short hair dry.

Big Sister 10pm here.

I’ve been checking on-line for free books to read. This is for waiting until class starts. I’m almost finished with a book. Someone faster then I would be several books ahead of me.

Time for my zzzzzz’s.

♪ P&L ♪≡≡ POOF! ≡≡

Good night all I guess I’m the last one I don’t like that.

Kab Sister you can get free Kindle for your computer and free kindle books at amazon, they have both the ones that are out of copyright and some that they offer to get you hooked on new authors

Oh, also a lot of libraries now have it set up so you can check out books and movies over the internet without even going into the library. I am not sure how that works, but if you have questions I am sure your local library can help you.

Is it a good thing to have my first cup of coffee after eight at night?

If you want to be up all night.
