Youza! Up early today!

[Explorer89]

I just read on CNN that our favorite nuisance, Michael Moore is gearing up to do a sequel to Fahrenheit 9/11. Barf.

[Explorer89]

On Sunday I'm going to be in Slovak-baking mode all day! Time to begin the Christmas bake-and-freeze marathon. This weekend: roshky.

[xsmommy]

wow you work far ahead!! good for yunz. fedex me some!

[Dutchgirl]

well look at you!

You have no idea how glad I am that I can't be seen! I feel distinctly crusty

One drawback to being at home is the distraction of the TV. Has anyone else noticed that Katie is wearing black...mourning perhaps?

I changed the channel and there was a woman wearing a chocolate necklace on ABC. It has my mind whirling with possibilities for the epic pome I plan to write. I hope it doesn't melt under the studio lights.

[Slip18]

I was just listening to it on the radio. The automatics going off are going to kill innocents. They are a bunch of nutjobs over there.

A++++ for you, umbob.

[Slip18]

Dutchgirl's looking a lot better, doncha think?

[Slip18]

Good boy! Onion soup is FILLED with Vitamin C.

Try some chicken noodle soup today. There's something in the chicken and broth that makes you better.

Like I know anything. We both still have this lovely cold. It's not enough to kill ya, but it sure takes its time to get better.

[Conspiracy Guy]

Happy happy

[Slip18]

Poor xshub. And where is he storing his golf clubs?

I don't care for Mexico. Give me the Carribean any day.

Is xshub working down there? Just remember these words: Como se declara: Cupable, no cupable o no me pongo. Just joking! Court stuff.

[Slip18]

I'm still on regular time which has changed everywhere else. I do get up at 5:00 a.m. to get Cyber his coffee and newspaper. I really should get a schedule in here and start at 6:00 a.m., so everyone knows when the thread will start.

[Slip18]

Wasn't it Fahrenheit 911A? I saw it, too. Idiot!

A++++ for you because we both watched it!

[thingumbob]

That thread I posted was an absolute riot!...been laughin the whole time....

Imus keeps callin Arafat Ole Stinky and I heard Brian Williams make a Freudian slip when he said, "You can't Jew it." instead of "You can't do it."......I'm still laughing out loud.....

[Slip18]

What's "roshky"?

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Morning all........... I'm heading out shortly for a stupid mammogram.........follow up to the procedure last year - just one side this time - yuk!

They rescheduled it for the "main campus" of my clinic which is up near downtown Houston.......... fortunately my husband is going to take me!

[Slip18]

The Croqs would be more than happy to clean up the chocolate. Trust me.

[Slip18]

Back atcha! Good day?

[Slip18]

What thread did you post?

Little known rules in here: If you post a thread, you must bring a link in here.

[Slip18]

I've had those follow-ups. I hate mammos. I hate them. They always screw up on me because I'm panting when I'm in pain, and they say, "Hold your breath." Like there's any breath to hold. So they have to do them over.

There's no reason why a new test hasn't been found that is not as painful.

[Dutchgirl]

What does one wear-
Not to War, but to Nuisance?
A floppy beret,
With a sense of insouciance.

A large white silk scarf,
(Though it looks rather fruity.)
If one needs to surrender,
It can do double duty.

But what would one wear,
To a war, not a nuisance?
You can keep your beret,
I’ll take the Spruance.
