Hello there children! And a happy Friday to you all. My look at all the tasty food. I brought some Orange Juice. You should take some Nozzi, the vitamin C would get ya jumpin again. It is great for hangovers too (not that I would know). I will check in later.

thanks Jfri your great. lol how is your friday going?

Doct told me to keep it going. we r shooting for over 100 today. so bear with me. lol

JFri first of all, tabby can’t eat brats, so we have to find something tasty and soft for her.

Must not be snowing in Denver if Doc’s off on his adventure!

I must be off again. Will check in later! Wish I had time to stick around and eat. I’m starving and headed to the grocery store with my dad! Grocery shopping and hunger!! Hope I don’t have to mortgage my house when I’m done shopping! LOL

thanks Dry i forgot i couldnt eat that. saved me from a lot of pain. lol also i feel your pain. shoping and hunger is never a good thing. when i go with my dad and bro. they go “oh look tabby dosent that look so yummy? makes you just wish you could pick it up and eat it.” how lovely are they? boys.

oh i forgot Doct what did you say on B.C. yesteray? i missed it. darn. the people over there are not so nice sometimes.

Nice day in Houston, Texas; 68degrees, overcast and cool. . 10 posts for Tabbylynn so far.

Dry It’s ok for tabby to eat virtual sausage! Just did a demo on a utility pole climbing safety device. Guess where the big yellow ufo is? Supposed to visit over the weekend tho!

AAAARRRRRR Later tabby!! And Joy, me sassy lassie! I be polishin’ me hook fer that thar date!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9z0h1NNk1Ik

guys here you all have to watch this. it is so WOW its beyound words.

havent gotten anything read well one chapter. going to sparknotes. this book is just killing me.

Joy and Comic self control. lol there are other people here. lol just messing with you.

to the comic big top… once the dog gets down, how will it get back up? he needs a step lader of some sorts. lol

facebook is the best thing ever. i just saw my best friends weding dress via her and facebook. she looks beautiful (as always) and now she is ubber excited. sha.

Tabby way ahead of you on that link! I don’t know how to do the linking but I told everybody laast night to look up Susan Boyle on You tube. Yes, SHE IS AWESOME! I got a lump in my throat! Those smart alecks sure dropped their mouths in a hurry, huh? I slways TRY to remember not to judge a person by their looks, and as I get older, it seems to be easier for me.

Joy we must have posted at the same time this Am, because you weren’t on yet, and now you are ahead of me! Yes I remember Bob Hope and Jimmy Cagney! They qualify as class acts, not like most of today’s so-called stars! I grew up on them! My mom LOVED Bob Hope! Another blast from your past, Perry Como! Mom loved him too! Yes I ahve been exposed to a wide range of actors, actresses, comedians and singers!

I notice I am typing in a hurry and making mistakes, but it takes too long to go back and edit, so the heck with it!

So what is this big deal with Doc and what he posted yesterday?

AAAARRRRRR Dry let a crusty ol’ pirate help ye out! When ye find a page ye likes, go to the http:// address at the top o’ the page, hold down the left mouse button and run ye cursor accross to highlight it. Then ye will need to right click the mouse and choose copy. Next ye goes to where ye wish ta print it & right click again and choose paste. That’s all thar is to it, me hearty!

Joy well He** is he’s buyin’ I’m in!

Bullwinkleisn’t on around here anymore! I loved that show! Wish we did get WGN. You must have a satellite dish or direct tv. Lucky you!

Dry, I answered your comment on Garfield. Tabby, Your Dad is right, vegetarian vegetable soup is very good. When I first starting doing chemo, I could barely eat. I had that soup and Ensure (vanilla and strawberry) for about a month. I lost a lot of weight too, but that’s not what I was trying to do. I’ve had a really busy day. Actually, I’m still really busy now. I’ll try to check back in later. Hope all is well with everyone.

By the way Joy you eat supper early! Oh well, so does my dad!

AAAARRRR Joy we be bbqing shrimp and Dungeness crab on the grill with corn on the cob, a nice bottle o’ Riesling with rum fer desert! And maybe some nice chocolate sundaes, too!

Dry, I don’t remember exactly what he said, but it was something about his third leg. I do remember it was very funny though.

Joy I saw the strip, but what did Doc say? I don’t know how you get something dirty out of restless legs unless I’m just naive!

Tabby, on garfield you aksed if it was bad to remember old shows, (before your time). I remember lots of old shows, either thru re-runs or my parents watching them when I was a kid. Heck I wasn’t even born yet when I LOve LUcy went on the air, but it’s one of my all time favs because I watched her in re-runs, still do! The episode with William Holden when they first arrive in Hollywood is one of my all time favs. I still laugh so hard I cry and I’ve seen it probably 30 times! They just don’t make comedy like that anymore! You probably don’t know the episode or what I’m alking about, but I’ll be someone here does! If you’ve never seen it, make a point to watch it! You will laugh like crazy!

carmy I remember Soap but not that clearly. I watched it, but I really don’t remember it!

My earlier post about going grocery shopping on an empty stomach, spent $161. bucks today, for one week!

Wow, Joy are you crazy or what? Going on a cruise with a crusty old pirate?? Lost your mind, you have! Dry I clearly remember the episode of I Love Lucy you mentioned but the one that just busts me up is the vitameataveggimin commercial!

Dry i love “i love lucy” it is the best ever. i think i saw that one. not sure. well my aunt/nanny is about to kill me i need to get her child and play withe her on the tramp for a little while. talk to you all later. bye for now.

Joy Probably but what the hey!

tabby, thanks for posting that link. I was hearing talk around the office today (and heard a little bit). Everyone was gathered around one person’s computer to watch, but since I’m short, I just took a glance and went back to work.

Joy OH MY GOSH!!! I LOVE THOSE SHOWS!! Crips, I have comcast, but we don’t get Chicago. Go figure! Heck we don’t even get any Philly or Pittsburgh stations! Our biggest we get is Harrisburg!

Akenta we’re trying for 100 posts tonight, so why don’t you take over for me, while I go watch my recorded “Days of Our Lives”. IF the pirate ship gets ready to set sail, somebody come get me! :-D

I’ll be back later!

oh, but before I go

carmy third leg! That’s funny and I have seen a lot worse! At least that isn’t hateful!

AAARRRRRR , me date is already asleep! Aye, Dry (kinder rhymes, don’t it?) we be pickin’ ye up as well. Joy we may be landin’ in the Bahamas somewhere. Always loved them thar Bahamas! Lots of rum in them thar Bahamas, there is! Or maybe we be celebratin’ the settin’ o’ the sun in Key West! With a crusty ol’ pirate ye never knows what’s what!

Boy, where are all the BT faithful? Looks like that scoundrel beat me to the 75 mark! And I was really wanting to get it!

Hey again, children! Just checking in again. Sorry, but the weather is too nice to stay inside all day. I don’t post as much as you guys do anyway, don’t have as much to say. I will help do my part to get us to 100 though.

so joy what time is it overe there? better yet what time do you go to bed. its only 6:40 here. we havent even ate supper yet. wow. so we need to get more then 100 stil guys we are not that close. someone help me out. we should start posting one word or something crazy like that. lol

tabby they did that Pibgorn one weekend! If I remember correctly, they went with colors. One would post orange, someone else, green, etc. We could go with songs, or foods. or what guys.

johnnydoc I know what you’re sayin’ I’m a gardener and I LOVE SUMMER! Don’t know if I can keep up a regular routine on here. Plus I read so many comics on line! SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!

dry how did they do colors??? i want to learn that one.

lets do songs or something crazy. lol im going to go crazy. i could always post my book on here and let you all read it with me. lol wouldnt do that to you guys. its sucks.

this is what my assignment is for this month. the part where it starts talking about a doll house. that is this weekend stuff. so fun. wish me luck

Writing for the Russian Literature Unit Writing Logs / Journal Responses AP Essay: 1986 Prose Passage Question Essay Quiz on “The Awakening” In-class essay: Law, religion, and society all harshly condemn Anna’s adultery. But her brother, Stiva, is also an adulterer, cheating on Dolly not once but twice. Stiva’s case is punished much less severely. Why and how does Tolstoy contrast these cases of adultery that have such different consequences? Essay Quiz on “A Doll’s House” Essay Quiz on “The Lady and the Dog” Out-of-class essay: Compare and contrast the definition of “freedom” for the women in Anna Karenina, “The Awakening,” and A Doll’s House.

i posted that to help with the number. lol what ever helps.

Dry SUMMER? What’s summer? Seems like I’ve heard of it somewhere………

my lil bro loves this comic strip. he said that todays was the best thing hes read in months. lol he loves the last box.

so for the last 2 months my teacher has made us read Anna K. and that was all about cheating and bertale, and a woman killing her self. so i hopes that the next story wouldn’t be like that. but it is… this one is the Awakening. it is the same think but even more boring. ahhhh… idk what the doll house is that i have to read next. but from what i hear its the same. i cant take it reading the same thing but with diff. people. im going to lose it. ahhhhh.

I’m supposed to take over helping get this to 100? Oh the pressure - luckily everyone was talking while I was away.

I did read Anna K awhile ago. I think I enjoyed it, but can’t remember anything except the end (which I kind of knew before I read the book). I’ve just started to read Medea - another story about betrayal if I remember my Greek myths correctly.

Akenta i hated A.K. it was just to blah. for me. the whole class hated it. the ending was runned for us also bc my teacher made us read the intro. go figure.

so chocolate pudding for ever one!!!! its pretty good when your hungry and cant eat anything.

Post 90

chocolate pudding, yum. How about some hot chocolate with that?

hot chocolate sounds great. the more chocolate the better. bring it on.

so every time i post. there is an add next to if for pizza hut. what kind of crule joke is that?

hey goldfish for everyone. its been a while why not get some.

Gel- Kam is the best ever. so it is like oralgel but toothpast form. it is so cool. i love it. its my new best friend. im only alowed to use it 2 times a day, but heck it is great.

I was just getting marshmallows for the hot chocolate. I don’t think the goldfish will go well with all the chocolate (unless they are chocolate too)

That sounds like a typical doctortoon comment :-p

Doct welcome back! missed you here today. how was your day? was the snow bad? hope you had a great day.

so Doct that was not that bad. many others have posted worse.

glad to see that my help returned.

We made it over 100 - I’m going to leave for a while and go play games. I’ll stop by later and see what the count is up to then. Everyone have fun!!

Well, this is a long weekend for Pibgorn so they will beat us anyway and I hate to admit, but I made some posts over there myself about Susan Boyle. Just about 2 or 3! But since this strip renews everyday and Pibgorn runs MOn-Fri if we get how many? and divide it by 2 days, we could still win!!

by doc and akenta thanks for the help in makeing it here. see you both later.

And where the He is JFri and our friendly pirate? Don’t tell me they left without us tonight! If they did, they are in deep sh TROUBLE!!!!

carmy where are you? Hope all is well!

doc are you working or still on your hot date in Denver? wink, wink, snicker, snicker! :-D

I evened up the posts so I may not be back tonight as I have a kid who wants to get online and play his PS3. So if you don’t hear from me again tonight, SWEET DREAMS! GOD BLESS US ALL, EVERYONE! I may be back but I don’t know! If not, see ya’ all tmr.

Dry i think they left witout us. welcome back. how was your day?

I am finished with The Awakening thank God. i read it on sparknotes but i read it. lol done

tabby it was busy! I got my haircut, went into church to light some vigil lights for a special prayer I have, washed dishes and did laundry, took my dad for groceries (my mom passed away in 2005 and I’m an only) picked my son up at high school, ran and got Subway for supper, watched my recorded soap “Days of Our LIves”, cleaned the litter box, got on here!

Still have more laundry to do! My son wants on here to play his PS# online, so if I don’t get back tonite, SWEET DREAMS KIDDO! HOPE YOU”RE ADJUSTING TO YOUR BRACES! :-)

More info than you wanted to know, right? :-D But YOU DID ask!

tabby Is your avatar your dog? My avatar is my 16 years 4 days old kitty Hannah who passed away a year ago this monday. :-(

So this was a contest with the Pigborn strip?

Akenta Not really! I post at both places, and we are the only two sites who post back and forth to this extent, in a friendly manner! Most of the people on here, don’t read Pibgorn, that I know of. These two sites sure beat SOTU! I think that’s one of the reasons we started this! To have a friendly site and one without politics and hate! And we have fun!

Akenta now that I’ve said that, watch some troller come in here and try to ruin it! :-(

Dry, I am doing okay. I was just so busy at home with my girls and dinner etc.

Drystyha yes. that is my Beau also know as bo bo, beaudet, and what ever else he answers to. sorry about your cat. i lost mine about 6 months ago. i miss her like crazy. she was my baby her name was Baby Girl it fit her. (sigh i * choper and little dude*

All sorts of fun, I think that the SOTU guys argued themselves out. Tabby I read A Doll’s House once, I think it is a play, but I don’t remember what it is about. Some scandal or another. I think my lack of memory about the book might signify how entertaining it was…

I had to go to the lab and get some tests done also. I did a lot of rushing around, I’m pooped!

Dry i asked and that is fine. not more then i bargind for. it is nothing. i have a crazy life also. mom and dad devorced when i was 4 dad has custy of my bro and me. he is 15 and im 19. we have a very disfunctional family i have issues with my nannys baby daddy. for reasons that shuld have never happened and no body should have that happen to them. i live in a soap so i dont watch them anymore. also the books i have to read for AP english is like my life also. so no need to worry. i got it. lol

I don’t think the trolls would get past the first page - nothing for them to feed on. Probably why we bring the good food. This was fun, but I’m tired. Good night everyone.

Carmy r u okay? i hope so. Jonnyd that just made me not want to read it. wont suprise me. i think it is about that we seem to be reading about that and women killing them self bc of stupid things. sucks.

We don’t have any pets, unless you want to count the black snake we saw in our backyard this afternoon. When I was young and living at home in Texas, we always had dogs. We had a poodle named “Miss Kitty Tequila Fifi”. We called her Kitty for short.

so to all of my friends on here. my little brother wants the computer and i need to do the dishes and check the clothes. at 10pm and i also have to take a shower. then star the doll house. so talk to you all later. bye for now. night all see u all tomorrow i hope.

hey look we past 120 go us.

No I seriously don’t remember what it is about. Tabby, you are only 19? I thought I would be the youngest, guess not.
