Honest LVH8, I was just resting my eyeballs. I was waiting for you to post breakfast, not that I wouldn’t have done so myself, but I have too much respect for others digestive systems. Morning TRIBE! Doesn’t breakfast look great, except that water thing. Here in New England we use water for washing. Different strokes————

Finaly got those run-ons done. Had to use coma splices to help the sentence out. One way I took a small break, then had a little outside help, and read the sentence verbally to make more sense. Now onto the next one who works as an English teacher. The one I had helping me doesn’t like working on-line. I informed that one using a PowerPoint presentation the English teacher sent to me by e-mail would be helpful for class for on-line. Both English teacher’s who assisted me doesn’t like the format nor working on-line. I revised my sentence structure to make more sense to others. Still not perfect but I am taking up to much comment space.

Good Morning, ♥Kab♥.

≡≡ P O P ! ≡≡ ♪ Good Morning TRIBE! ♪

Hello to all those here!

I’ll have some German chocolate cake!

Hi and Bye…

We’re playing “tourist” today….gonna check out the ice break-up on the Missouri near the headwaters. Should make for a nice day.

The Sojourner that will taste great. Thanks. A great pick-me-up and that cake won’t hurt me either. I may have to see doctor again. Today is last of pills and didn’t affect my sinus infection, I’m still infected. Nowadays I don’t know if much works on med’s. Back to class I have been working, don’t know if will count but practice always help, with English sentences. Not doing this with run-ons horrible.

Have a great day Montana Lady!

♥Kab♥ - Hope your sinus gets better and yoy make good progress with your English work.

Have a good sleep Doctor Toon.

Hi, Sojourner, Montana Lady & Doctor Toon.

Sleep well, Doc.

I’ve never had a sinus infection, ♥Kab♥. Hopefully they’re not too painfull.

Hello Grog!

Top of the morning, Sojo & Grog!

And anyone else here!

Is Wink in a fowl mood?

Hello bmonk! LOL

But I do know how WInk feels some days.

And looks like DocT does too…

Hello, bmonk

As I look at my computer clock here, it is now just after high noon and lunch time.

Turkey Sandwich?

Lemon curry?

If you’re talking to me a bowl of chunky soup

Good afternoon Tribe!

Still at work, but thought I’d drop in and say “Hi”.

So…………………………………………………..

Is very quiet…… I suppose I could wash dishes. I still think I should throw most of them away.

See, I did learn something. somewhere.

Hi ♠Lonewolf♠ and Ooops!

Just finished washing my dishes at last.

Hi ♠Lonewolf♠ & Ooops

Headed home. See you on the flip side.

Sweet, Nice, Handsome, Intelligent, Cunning Sojo, would you like to do some more dishes?

Lonewolf, you were not there when I posted! How did you do that? My poor mind can’t take any more!

Hi Sojo & Grog!

(I h8 when people say that to me, it’s like they think I don’t always drive………. ummm……. okay, it’s like they think I will drive safer just because they said so.)

Would I like to do more? It took me a week to do the few I had.

Sojo, but if you drop some dishes, then you don’t have to wash more dishes–you’ll have less to wash.

There’s some sort of logic there somewhere.

@Oooops!!, OK then!

That’s it there will be no more using of dishes in this house! Everyone can have one drinking container and one spork, they are responsible for keeping clean. That is it!

bmonk - I can’t afford to buy more dishes.

Ooops! - Now that’s a GREAT idea!

Will everyone have to eat out of their hand with the spork? That would save washing dishes.

I like it, except I often have two beverages going at once….. and I am not pouring water in my coffee or orange juice in my chocolate milk.

Sure Bmonk, now you tell me. After I finally decided to try to drive within no more than 4 miles over the speed limit.

Now I have to get over the urge to play with Fiend at red lights (I think they don’t like it, even when the car is stopped). Probably should learn to use my fancy bluetooth correctly and actually wear it? Phooey!

Yes, and no getting pots and pans dirty either. If you want an egg, it will have to be raw or cooked in your cup. I do have two camping cups that can be used on the stove top though……

Ooops! - I like the juice that comes with black olives. My cousin was fixing food for Thanksgiving at the time when I had breakfast. There was only enough orange juice for half a glass so I filled it with the black olive juice. It was great! Have had it several times since.

Sojourner, I think you remind my of the (former) NFL player who drank pickle juice.

I like the taste of olive juice, but I won’t drink a glass of it.

Orange juice & olive juice together?

Of course orange juice & pickle juice & diced black olives?

LOL, Ooops!

Did I get confuzzled again?

Okay so for every two dirty dishes I throw one out. Then next time, I do the same thing………. Do you think it matters if not all the dishes I throw out actually belong to me?

But once I clean that mess I can start on………

Doesn’t that get a little expensive, Ooops!?

No! You do not replace the items you throw out! Then you have to start all over! Geeeeeeeeeesh!

I wrote a poem!

The other day I saw a frog A great green frog Floating on a lily pad He looked at me I looked at him He stuck out his tongue And I was lunch

Hide Meebo!

Funny, Ooops!

Well, I did. Then it tried to attack when I tried to repost. Apparently it wants you to share instead of backspacing several words at a time. Meebo is maybe scary? I don’t usually encounter it.

Did Sojo run away from the food combining?

Beware Meebo!!!

Ooops! - Good poem!

Fixing supper tonight since I have clean dishes to get dirty.

What do you do when you haven’t got clean dishes, Sojourner? Go without?

Sort of.

I end up cleaning the dishes I need. (Horrible, isn’t it?)

My roomate used to laugh at me because I always used to do dishes right before I made dinner.

I do sometimes too.

Don’t worry Sojo, Grog eats frozen dinners when he doesn’t want to wash dishes. (Shhh! Is Secret!)

Sometimes I do that too when I have them.

As I make smoothes for breakfast and lunch I only have to worry fixing supper and washing supper dishes.

Good evening, Tribesters!

I’m home from work with no place to go. Guess I’ll just have to rest up and relax! Well, somebody’s got to do it!

Good evening, Tribesters!

I’m home from work with no place to go. Guess I’ll just have to rest up and relax! Well, somebody’s got to do it!

I’m not home for breakfast or lunch ether, Sojourner, so that saves on the dishes for me too.

Good evening, ♠Lonewolf♠

Now a days dirty dishes are scarce around these parts in the daytime, too.

Good Evening ♠Lonewolf♠!

Howdy, Grog & Sojo!

Yay! Sojo! Want to wash mine? (tries to look cute)

Hello Lonewolf & Peoples!!!

Now LuvH8 is psychic!

Good evening, LuvH8! :^)

Just finnished supper dishes, nothing still dirty!

But…. But……. I am not psychic I am psychotic!

Maybe a bit of both, Ooops!

psychoic?

Hmmm……. That could work!

If Ooops! was psychic she wouldn’t keep asking if I want to wash dishes!

These days with the posts all screwed up everyone looks psychic at times.

Sorry Sojo. Probably it would cost more to mail them to you and have you mail them back than to buy new dishes anyway.

Oh!!!! Has anyone ever heard of putting computer things like cell phones in rice to dry them out, when you can’t get them apart safely?

You’ve got that right, Grog.

I almost fell on the floor laughing when I read Hobbes post on “last posts” on C&H. But start with DaHawk’s comments near the bottom of page 1.

Hi and Bye Doctor Toon.

Have a good evening, Doc

And with that, I think I’ll call it a night. I started my day early today and I’ve been on the computer far too long.

Gunite, Tribeandall!

Good Night Grog.

So….. I should go get the trash can!!!!! Ah ha haa ha haaaaaa!!!

Okay, any suggestions for drying out small electro.ics that can’t safely be taken apart are welcome. Somebody’s charger already spent some time in the rain.

Ooops! - Don’t take me seriously (disclaimer) but just letting it dry completly before putting any power to it would be the first thing. I have applied warm (not hot) heat to help it dry but that could be iffy to do.

Once at work a leak in the roof during a heavy rain soaked a large piece of electronic equipment (cost $350,000.00). They removed all the covers etc. they could and set up fans to blow fresh air through it for three days to dry it. Worked fine after that.

There are no screws I am afraid if I actually take it apart, I will crack it. Fortunately, the cable is fine and can be connected to a computer to charge. She already has another charger, that was ……. (sigh) I am grateful these problems are with the chargers, not the phone itself. Monkey 2 read or heard about the rice. At least the phones are insured.

Good night, Doc & Grog

Lonewolf, I thought you went to bed early? Maybe we should go to bed and leave Sir Lew to make breakfast?

Sir Lew make breakfast? I’m not so sure about that one!

I had to get my two last cents in at C&H!

Well if you consider lurking hibernating, Then I just woke up.

Hello SteelBlade!

Good Morning! Ummm…. if you need to eat not to be grouchy there is still pie. Thanks to the magic of comics, it is still fresh and everything.

Hello Steelblade!

Then I shall have some pie Ooops!

Hey all.

Welcome to the Big Top!

thanks.

It has been awhile Since my last visit.

Must be. I’ve only been here for 8 months and don’t remember you, but then there’s a lot I don’t remember. :-)

I’ve got a lot of catching up to do.

Previously I haven’t posted since May of 2010.

So how do you like it here.

That’s about when I started.

Well I will try to rest, despite the head cold I have.

Wheeeee. I made it! What a day and gone again tomorrow but maybe things with my sister will be better by Friday and my life will…..hahahahahah….”normal?”

Good to see you Sojo, Lonewolf, Ooops and Steelblade

May we all rest well tonight!

To me it’s like a family over the internet. It’s sometimes slow and sometimes wacky but always different.

Sojo Wacky sort of sums it up a lot of the time. Smiles.

(reminds me, I must brush my teeth before retiring)

Hello HopeandJoy♫! Have a good night, hope your sister is better soon.

Have a good night Steelblade.

  Get Well Soon SteelBlade!

HopeandJoy, I hope it all goes well with your sister. ‘Normal’ is nice…………

Yes, hope you breathe easily, Steelblade

Pretty flowers, Ooops

Thanks for your good wishes, Sojourner

Oyasuminasai.

Learned a new Japanese word. :-)

Hi, Steelblade. Good to see you. It’s been a long time.

Hi, HopeandJoy♫. Prayers & thoughts to you and your sister.

Steelblade said “Goodnight” in Japanese.

Sure, Sojo………….. not going to share your new knowledge with the rest of us?

Umm……… should I have a word at Calvin & Hobbes? I haven’t checked on how that is going……

Are you Peoples sure you want me to be Wacky with the scythe and all? Come to think of it, do we want SteelBlade to be Wacky?
