Good night everyone. See you later. :-)

Good Night Little Sister & Montana Lady, Pleasant Dreams

Drat! I wanted to know more about shooting jello! What do we use? Do we use regular strength or jigglers? I like the idea of using lots of colors so we can have pretty colors flying through the sky.

Yummy! Peach Cobbler & Blackberry Cobbler. I think I will also help myself to a Big Sister’s Berry Delicious Fruit Smoothie. Thank you Little Sister

I think I’ll grab some chops, slaw and…..

cheesecake

Good Morning, ♥Little Sister♥, Montana Lady & Ooops!

Good Morning Everyone. Hey, what’s is?! We can’t update our avatars?! I’ve been stuck with the CC Wifi Radio avatar since November!

Good Morning Little Sister, Montana Lady, My Joshy-Poo, Ooops, and Grog. What is? We can’t upgrade our avatars? I’ve been stuck in this form since December! I know by now everyone’s tired of seeing me holding my wand and displaying my beautiful legs!

Good Morning LITTLE SISTER. I notice your upper case menu stops at DOC TOON’S WORLD FAMOUS NUCLEAR COFFEE. Is this a sign from a BT divinity That I should skip all the yummy fattening food and only drink the Nectar of the God’s? Better be safe, two cups please.

I say skip all the yummy fattening junk and eat nice healthy veggies instead!

Sorry Josh good morning to you.

Good Morning ♠Lonewolf♠,♥♥ Little Sister♥♥,Wolfbyte LuvH8/BBS,Grog,Doctor Toon, Plodswbeer, Doc Toon, MontanaLady, ♪Hopeandjoy♫Serenasakitty,, SRmom,Bmon,Ladyhawk,,lakesnake ,Lewreader;MisngNOLA,Woodeye, Yukoneric, The Sojourner, Only Tink, pseudo,Digital Frog,Ponytail56

I won’t be on too long rain is expected in SC KS today. I feel like I’m on spring break though I will be working next week. I’m gonna see about neighborhood garage sales, Penny’s and Payless shoes. Dept I work at no sandals no open toes shoes. I’ll check with all later.

good Morning, Everyone……

Have lots of errands to run today. And, I have to save the newspaper so I can sit on the front porch and read it in the moonlight. This is supposed to be the brightest in 18 years.

Good Morning, Josh, Lewreader, ♥Kab♥, Doctor Toon & Montana Lady (again!)

Josh, to each his or her own. I prefer everything in moderation. Man cannot can’t survive on bread (or vegies) alone. Life would be pretty boring if we only ate the things that were good for us. (Just shoot me.)

For lunch I think I’ll have the pigs’s nuckles & saurkraut, ♥Little Sister♥, with a quart of Labatt Blue to wash it down with.

pseudo, I read your comment from last night.

Interesting comparison. If I were to use ice cream, I would say that The Beatles were plain vanilla with their offerings, with certain exceptions like Strawberry Fields, Yellow Submarine and later Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da which were awefull.

I think The Stones more like wild raspberry a much more delicious alternative. I’ll take any of the Stones offerings that didn’t even chart (Gimme Shelter, Sympathy For the Devil & You Can’t Always Get What You Want) over any of the Beatles offerings.

I will admit that the Beatles did open the door for some other groups as well, like The Animals (Love House Of the Rising Sun & Sky Pilot*) The Hollies & The Kinks.

Good morning Grog (good to see you) and from last 2 hours: pseudo (what a nice “regular” you are here…appreciated your “hospital comments”) Doc Toon (Sleep well, how is your dog doing?) Montana Lady (read your comments on the moon, think I’ll join you) Ooops (enjoyed your sweet angel bear and wishes from Wednesday *: )

Lonewolf I am looking forward to next Friday night and some of your PIZZAwhen my appetite is better!!!

Again, thanks to one and all I will be like KAB…”kinda” scarce today.

≡≡ P O P ! ≡≡ ♪ Good Morning TRIBE! ♪

Hello to all those here!

I’ll have a pork chop and corn bread, thank you.

Little Sister I almost forgot….I will have some blackberry cobbler to eat spoonsful from time to time all day hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!! with ice cream!

Good Morning HopeandJoy♫ - Keep getting better!

Good Morning Doctor Toon - Glad to hear about Lola and your cats!

Have a good snooze Doctor Toon.

Hi Sojo…I thought you would be on. Good for Ks win. and ** Doc Toon** Thanks for the cat and dog update. Enjoy hearing about them….I will take a nap after this post.

Did some tidying up of emails etc. and **today’s humorous quote from Helen Hays (unexpectedly) is ”Age is unimportant unless you’re a cheese”

Let’s back up. Turkey Bacon isn’t so bad. There’s less fat in that!

Hello Josh!

Hello all. Garage sales not that great. Found a summer type top I need and Penny’s and summer shoes at Payless. They told me they sell a lot of I can understand. This morning was almost a wash out. Found out from JC Penny’s the catalog department was done away with now called customer service dept. Can still order from catalog. ♪Hopeandjoy♫ glad you are feeling better. It’s noon here.

We here use ground turkey a lot. For turkey bacon there is salt. We use papertowel and cook turkey bacon in microwave to cut out fat there is.

Hello ♥Kab♥ - Glad you got your errands done.

Sarcasm from Winkey and rudeness from Pete–they sure need a whisperer of some kind under the tent…

Good Morning, peeps!

Especially: ♥Kab♥ and Sojo**!

Hello bmonk and pseudo!

HI, pseudo and ♥Lil’ Sis♥!

What was Oooops? up to with the jello?

Hello everyone at least for the moment. It’s the weekend so I must seize the day and torture (Er! I mean mingle with family).

Hello ♥Little Sister♥!

I’d better go to lunch too. BBL??

Now now bmonk You know that I can’t squeal on my Big Sister.

I didn’t ask anyone to squeal–I was just wondering what she planned to do…

I hope its fun.

I hope you all have fun. I’ll see you all a little later.

Since it will be quite here I’ll move on.

Good afternoon, Tribe.

I seem to be popping in these days when no one else is around.

Once again, HopeandJoy♫, good to see you back.

pseudo, I am aware of the Beatles volume of work as well as the Stones’. I just put together a short list of the ones I didn’t like and a short list of the Stones songs I love that didn’t even chart. When I elected to start building a CD library, it was easy for me to make the Stones, ELO and CCR early additions to the collection. Even though I don’t like Miss You I did buy the Some Girls album, because the rest was very much to my liking. Slowly I added more of the ones I loved on vinyl. Still no Beatles.

The # of #1 singles one has will not influence my tastes. Though I have some Elvis, I love Buddy Holly. I will never own Michael Jackson, George Michael or Prince. I will buy Eric Clapton and I don’t recall him having any # 1 hits; I just like his style. It suits my particular tastes. Same with Sprigsteen, Supertramp and a host of other long-time favorites

Good Afternoon Grog!

Hello Sojo again…Thanks, Grog Awake again. Some of my favorite Beatles is “I wanna hold your hand, Let it Be, Yesterday, Ele Rigby, HELP….and I liked the Boston Pops renditions of their music too.

A lovely rainy, gentle thunder day. I’m glad My golferman got in a round before it began and has been so good picking up needed items and lunch…bless him.

Hi, Sojo

pseudo, I really didn’t think the Beatles were the only band you listened to. I agree with you on the Zeppelin. Never got into Hendrix though. I did like Queen before they got real commercial toward the end of the 70’s.

For some reason I felt the same way about Laura Brannigan’s Gloria as you do about Jumping Jack Flash. for the same reason.

Good talking music with you!

BBL

Hello? Anyone here?

Hello Rmom - I’m here!

Hi, Sojo! - Did you get any rain or hail? I think all we got here was some “spitting” - not even enough to “settle the dust’.

Rmom - Just a little light rain once and a while. It may be over now.

Rmom - A little is starting to build up in Oklahoma that may bring some light rain eary overnight.

pseudo - The sun is just starting to show a little for the first time today!

54° here. Should be upper 70s next two days and then go to 80°.

Sojo - From what I see of the radar, I think you’re right. I got out and burned the trash today, figured I’d get rained on, but didn’t. It was overflowing our trash corral in the garage, but it had been too windy any day I thought about it. Burnt a little grass around the barrels, but had the garden hose to keep it from spreading too far. I also started cleaning out the fridge, because something was starting to stink, and I couldn’t figure it out. I think I found it, but need to finish the job now. Lots of stuff in there past the “best used by” or expiration dates.

Hi, pseudo! - Enjoy the sun while you’ve got it, as I hear that’s a rarity in that area of the country.

pseudo - The wind was blowing from the east today, so I don’t think I’m to blame. Probably the smell came from further east of you - think Washington DC, NJ, etc. I’m sure you can think of some place with a foul smell.

pseudo - I know my hubby said he couldn’t understand the poem about “April showers bring May flowers” when he was growing up in PA. Something about they were still getting snow in April…

I’d get in on the Beatles/Stones argument, but for a student who had to repeat his Sophomore/Junior years because he was following a certain hippie cult band, all I can say is my psychiatrist hopes the memories never return.

Hi Smiley RMom I think the rain we have had for quite a while is ending…at least for now. I didn’t know you were going on an “exploration expedition” on your break. *: )

Hi Lewreader

Hello Lewreader!

Hi, Lewreader & Hope&Joy! Hope&Joy - Since I’m not homeschooling anymore, I guess I can’t make a science lesson out of it, either. Usually, I don’t have this problem, as my momma taught me to make sure the food is sealed well before putting in the fridge. I think the problem was that my husband used some of my old Tupperware, and the lid didn’t fit as tight as it used to. Considering I bought it in the late 70’s, and it has been through the dishwasher & in the microwave many times, I guess I can’t complain

pseudo - Of course I knew you were “joshing” me. However, since I had difficulty standing where the smoke wasn’t blowing my direction, I knew which way it was blowing then. If I racked my brain long enough, I probably could have remembered which direction the jet stream flows, but it isn’t something I’ve taught for a few years.

Bye pseudo.

Bye, pseudo!

Bye pseudo Enjoy the candles and presents…not to mention CAKE!

I am gone too.

Bye HopeandJoy♫.

Bye *HopeandJoy♫!

Good Afternoon, Everyone,

We just had a HUGE snowstorm pass through…..maybe still lingering a bit. Huge wet flakes, stuck to everything. Absolutely beautiful.

Watch out bmonk and Lonewolf….it’ll head on over your way next.

Unfortunately, that will take care of seeing that full moon!

Hello Montana Lady - We will probably have to many clouds here also.

Hi, M’Lady! The sun is trying to peek through the clouds here, so I’ll just have to wait and see when the moon shows up.

I haven’t gotten into trouble! I just would like somebody to please explain how you shoot jello?

I found this here sling shot, and adjusted it so it has a small bowl in the center. I think it might work.

Oh! Ooops! Ewww!

Never mind, you didn’t see that. Icky! Icky! Icky! Back later.

Hi and Bye Ooops!

Hi and Bye Doctor Toon - Have a good night at work.

Time for my zzzzzz’s.

♪ P&L ♪ ≡≡ POOF! ≡≡

Back from pool! We won. I won my match!

Good evening Tribe!

(sweep, sweep)

(waves dosimeter)

Nope…no cesium.

(dust, scrub)

Good Evening Tribe.

Just dropping in for a bit before bed time.

Congrats, ♠Lonewolf♠

Lewreader, there are no arguments here. If everybody liked exactly the same things the world would a boring place. That would put a lot of musicians out of work and that’s just 1 industry. What if everyone drove a Chevy? Unfortunately, to too many people, differences are things to be fought over rather than embraced.

Hi Grog

Hi, Hymenoxis! Good to see you, sir!

How is everyone doing?

Hello, Hymeonxis. Long time no, see!

Hope you are doing well.

(pulls back bowl of sling shot, releases……)

Hi, Grog!

Hi, ♠Lonewolf♠ & Ooops!

Ooops!, I think you’ll want to see Non Sequitur

Good evening Lonewolf, Grog, Ooops, Hy Just wandering by…Lonewolf congrats on your pool and if the Bulls had to lose, it is good that the Celtics did too…a wash, I guess. Duke has Kyrie back…Amazing.

Ooops what are you up to now? I don’t think you would throw money around like in Non Sequitur. however.

Hi, HopeandJoy♫

Gunite, Tribeandall

A suggestion for shooting jello Cube it and flip it or suck it into a pastry gun and expell rapidly???OR put cubes in a fine net like cherry tomatoes come in and let it fly.

Hello Everyone!

Mendasock! still no distance…. at least it didn’t…

Goodnight Grog Mee toooo

Good evening, ♠Lonewolf♠, Grog, Hopeandjoy♫!

I’d wish Ooooooops?? a good evening too–if she puts down the sling-Jello (…or is that a Jello-sling? Hmmmmm…..).

We had a nice sunny and warm(ish) day–but after dusk the clouds came in and started light and scattered rain. We might have some fun the next few days–might or might not get a snowstorm Monday eve thru Wed. Maybe.

Thank you HopeandJoy! I will try those.

Oh, and the clouds that came up obscured the rising (big) full moon.

:^( :^o

Too quiet here…

Hi, HopeandJoy♫, LuvH8 & Bmonk!

@♠Lonewolf♠, do you think LuvH8 is up to something?

Yes, but who keeps feeding her jello and jelly???

She is always up to something!

I guess I am guilty of that!

Oh, well!!!

I didn’t think you wolves liked jelly.

Unless it’s only mint jelly you keep. For with lambs…

All depends what comes with the jelly!

Yay!!! Suggestions!
