Good Morning, Grog!!

Awesome breakfast menu! I was wondering what I was going to do for breakfast so as not to be a repeat of late.

Thank you, sir!

Good Morning, ♠Lonewolf♠

Grog, I’ll have the Huevos Rancheros, beans, rice, flour tortillas and Doc’s WFNC, please.

I was actually surprised to see no comments, given I knew you were around, ♠Lonewolf♠

Good morning Grog

I’ll have some grits please.

Good morning Lonrwolf.

You got it, ♠Lonewolf♠

Good Morning & enjoy, Sojourner

Good Morning, Sojo

It’s great to see you guys this morning, though I know it is not for the good being that both of you said g’night earlier.

I didn’t think anyone else would be around again, so i was trying to come up with a fresh breakfast menu, Grog. Hence the delay in an initial comment.

I’m trying to use my phone.

Goodnight all.

Good Night, Sojourner

Good Night, Sojo.

Good veryearly morning. Much of that wonderful menu is too heavy for me for breakfast, but may I have some of the heuvos con chorizo, half a litre of orange juice, and a cup of Irish Breakfast tea?

In return, there’ll be a huge vat of Red River Cereal available when it’s needed.

I’ll be back for the breakfast in 7 hours, though, after a few moments of sleee…ZZZZZZZZ

Good morning, Tribeandall……

Nothing for me right now, but come 9:00, tomorrow, I’d love a Kilbasa omelet with mushrooms, please. And an onion bagel with cream cheese. YUM!!!

Good Morning, Montana Lady & Saskfan

It’ll be ready for you, Montana Lady

Good Morning, Saskfan & Montana Lady

Aaaaaaand with that I need to hit the rack and inspect the insides of my eyelids!

Good Night Grog. Good night All. Good night, Gracie!

Goodnight, ♠Lonewolf♠.

Time for me to turn in again, too.

Dusty could score a coup if he could capture both of them for the show….. toontour

Not sure where other states are on gas prices here locally in KS ours went up again to $2.85 heading towards $3. Not sure why discourages for looking at Christmas lights unless some carpool. Then I find out some local neighbors are not decorating homes cost too much on electric bills an lack of jobs.

Good Morning, Kab & DFrog

Headed out for the day. Catch y’all later!

Have a great day everyone.

P&L

Kab–roughly $3 here in the suburbs of Chicago.

Good Morning, ♠Lonewolf♠, Digital Frog & Kab.

Another busy day today.

Does anyone know why gas prices are going up? I have seen on national news some areas gas prices is way over $3. Somewhere around $3.36.

Now I am waiting on professors for two classes I had on line finnal results with grades and then I can check especially on medical what is being talked about called research. I am not an A student not even younger days. Depends on subject.

No snow in No Chicago, Terry

Kab ….. our gas prices have been 2.87 since way before Thanksgiving…..but, down in So. Cali…..they were 3.09 then.

Grog……I’ll be by to pick up that yummy omelet.

Good Morning, Everyone

Good Morning, wilbur

It’ll be ready when you are, Montana Lady

Not so bad here–little wind, but it is foggy. Temp is 18°F (-8 °C), so the trees will soon be frosted.

Good Morning, ALL!

Gas prices around here are 2.95. Did someone set fire to a refinery somewhere in the U.S.

≡≡ P O P ! ≡≡ ♪ Good Morning TRIBE! ♪

Hello to all those here!

Dusty - OOPS!

Hello again. i overslept, so can’t stay long. Up here in Darkest Saskatchewan, our gas is $1.039/litre. That’s pushing US$4/US gallon. Since I don’t own a car, it doesn’t bother me, except for the extra prices on food to pay for the fuel to bring it here…

Thanks for the breakfast, Grog!

Good Morning Saskfan!

Good Morning, bmonk, sojourner & Saskfan

Good Morning Grog! Thanks for a great breakfast. Sorry I didn’t have more but it was hard trying to post with the phone. Something more to get used to.

Good morning! I found a helpful website for tracking gas prices. Kab - If you follow the links provided on the website, you can find prices at specific stations in Wichita. I’ve found Sam’s Club is usually the last to raise their price, although if you don’t have a membership card, you can’t even buy gas at the east store. Wilbur - East OH, huh? My hubby grew up in western PA, so I’ve gone through OH a lot, especially before his parents moved.

Good Morning Rmom!

Good Morning, Rmom

Hi, Sojo & Grog!

Hey there Rmom your hubby grew up in the land of the Pittsburg Steelers?

Wilbur - Not in Pittsburgh, but that was the closest major city. My hubby isn’t a sports fan, but if pressed for a team, he’s for any team except the Steelers.

My kind of man. Not afraid to root for an underdog. I am a Browns fan myself. You know (oh the shame)

I kind of like the Browns too. Never did like the Steelers.

Thank you Grog Terry Bradshaw and the boys from Steel City just never captured my heart.

I still don’t like Bradshaw. Love Howie, Jimmie & Michael, though.

My intro to football came as a 5 year old in 1960 before the combo of NFL&AFC and the Browns were able to capture the title for the AFC.

I was born in 60. I didn’t really get into the NFL til I was in my latter teens. Close to Stauback’s retirement.

I keep getting signed out by gocomics. Happened some yesterday, so I rebooted and hoped today would be better. Now, when I go to the “all comments” page, I’m signed out. I click on “sign in”, it takes me to my home page and says I’m already signed in. I’ve got some errands to run this afternoon. Hopefully it will work better this evening.

Have a good afternoon Rmom while you do your errands and may the sign in problems say good bye.

It is quite possible but the author of the toon has not been trying to do anything for us as of late.(Rob Harrell)

Rmom, try going to your profile page. That usually works to KEEP me signed in. Not sure why it’s that way, but it is for me.

Hello wilbur - When I sign on I say hello to all then try to say hello to those who comment after I have signed in. Sometimes I miss someone like I did you earlier. No need to reply to my hello. I just check comments every so often, I’m usually doing something on my computer which makes it easy to check comments.

Rmom - When I recently switched browsers I keep getting signed out. When I changed my start-up for my computer I freed up my RAM. Haven’t had any problems since. (Once in a while something will happen to us all though.)

Hello? Wonder if Oprah will be on this afternoon… Regarding gasoline/petrol…in our part of Missouri it is $2.72 down from 2.79. Had been $2.49-2.59 We ususally have pretty competitive prices in Missouri but not sure why.

Wilbur is a good name. Welcome. Hi to Sojo, Lonewolf, Grog, LuvH8, KAB, Montana Lady, Rmom, and bmonk when you come on and others…Wonder where Frankr got to….Runs with NOG I know Doc Toon is scarce today and I will be tomorrow.

Go Chiefs! Go Duke! on Sunday.

Hello HopeandJoy!

Hello, HopeandJoy

Good afternoon Tribeandall

Late lunch but only a couple of hours of work left!

Good Afternoon ♠Lonewolf♠!

Good afternoon, Grog, Sojo, HopeandJoy, Rmom & Wilbur

And a special G’Afternoon to Gayfatnakedvet. We do like a slight amount of attention. Looks like you’ll fit right in. It appears you’re looking for some attention, too.

Welcome to the Big Top!

And a hearty welcome to Wilbur. I did not get a chance to welcome you yesterday. :^)

Montana Lady Just saw your buttermilk biscuit comment from yesterday…… * : ) They WERE good too! (or two, three, four! *: )

Hi ♠Lonewolf♠

It’s actually almost time for me to call it a day.

Grog, I’m on my way out the door now. I should be calling it a work day here very soon.

Have fun all!

P&L

I’m back for a bit while I take care of some online business, but I plan on taking a vacation from the computer tonight.

What movie will you watch?

I’m going to watch The Santa Clause, HopeandJoy Right now I’m getting a rare treat in a Bruins/Habs hockey game. I don’t usually get to see the Canadiens play unless they are in the playoffs.

I’m glad you can…enjoy!

Well my eyes are aching to get away from the computer.

Gunite all! Have a good evening.

Good evening Tribesters!

Worked a little longer than anticipated, but I am done now.

Good Night, Grog.

Goodnight Grog and a Good evening Lonewolf.

Hi, HopeandJoy! How are you doing this fine evening?

Good Night Grog.

Good Evening ♠Lonewolf♠ - Sorry you had to work so late. My day’s been fine. Been busy installing new (but old operating system) software. Finally finished doing it correctly. Most made to run from CD drive (copy protected) but managed to make an .iso image of CD’s and mount them to virtual drives so I don’t have to mess with the CD’s.

Hi, Sojo.

Sounds like quite a task.

♠Lonewolf♠ - It wasn’t too bad but it was older software from another country so it took awhile. {Several programs on learning a different language.)

Hello Rmom! I see your still staying warm.

Hi, Wolfie, Hope&Joy, Sojo and anyone else hanging around!

Wow, Sojo! You can see me before I appear? It looks like posts are getting shuffled again like they were last evening.

It’s better than the spam! :-)

Much better than spam!

Hello Tribe.

Re: earlier comment by the lady/gentleman who has the hugely long moniker. (No, I will not be the first to attempt a shortening, the first two that pop into mind might not be well received by any trolls hanging around),

As long as our biggest controversy is which football team will win and who is watching the best movie available, I think there will be no reason for GoComics to pull the comments section here. The biggest complaint was from some personages taking exception to our breakfast menu and orders, as well as our lack of comments concerning the comic. That has quieted down over the last week or two, all is right with the world.

Was gone most of the day, splurged and treated myself to CeCe’s Pizza before going to do the plasma thing. Then to the Dragon to play Scrabble and bead. Whew, I’m tired.

Oh, and if they don’t quiet down, I’ll crew up the SSBN Erehwon and cruise around shooting down spam wherever found.

Hello Quaby - Tired but fun I hope!

Hi, Quaby! Get your well-deserved rest!

I’m glad Quaby is on our side…besides, I am busy trying to figure out how we can set Oprah free…I’ll sleep on it.

Appreciate your humor and dedication Quaby Be invigorated for tomorrow now. *: )

Hi and Nite,Rmom, Sojo, and others

Good Night HopeandJoy.

Hi all I won’t be up too much longer. I have been catching up on tapes since two different subjects kept me busy. Aw Rmom I know I can look up gas prices on line why spoil it, I thought wouuld be interesting to hear what others say where they live about gas prices. I guess since our current President had some oil wells shut down population is paying for the price and I agree with someone else will affect food prices being trucked in to other supplies. I will let everyone know when I find out my grades. I hope Little Sister is fairing better then me she had more to work with. And isn’t there a couple of someone else also taking classes? Good night all. Yahoo Friday coming.

Hi and Bye Kab.

Hi, Kab! Sorry I ruined your fun. Some people don’t realize how much information is available via the internet. One brother went to the main library to look up the address of one of my mom’s cousins. Since he has internet at home, you’d think it would have been quicker to search that way. That website helps us, especially when the prices are climbing, to see which towns have the least expensive gas. I know KS gas prices are always better than FL, but OK & TX are usually better. The reason for that is how much tax the various states put on each gallon. If the state produces a lot of oil, they usually have lower taxes on gas than the ones who aren’t big oil producers. Well, time to say good night!

Good Night Rmom.

Hello again everybody. Some issues kept me from the computer this evening.

Is anyone still here?

I am.

Hi, Sojo. How are you doing this late evening.

Still up. Testing a USB LED light to light up the keyboard so I can see it with the lights out. Got it today.

I’ve got two of those. They are different brands and one is brighter than the other.

It came with the software and some other things I ordered with the software I mentioned. One thing was some cables I thought I could use and had several other things with it. One was a small mouse for laptops on the road. It works great and is only about 1 inch wide by 2 inches.

Are you doing breakfast?

If you want. It will be similar to what I usually post as I haven’t changed it much.
