Some beautiful women, Cardhu.

Where are OESY, NicknamedBob and Darksheare?

Lol

[yorkie]

You said it so much more clearly than I did, Amy, and I apologize that my post may have sounded flippant. I certainly was not meant to be.

We are blessed with abundance - every where we turn - and those poor poor people have nothing.

[JustAmy]

No need to apologize, Yorkie, your post did not sound flippant. You sounded like someone that hurt while looking at those pictures.

[DollyCali]

Okay, I guess I am moving in here.. where do I put my “stuff” amy?

I need a big room (s) as I am a big - time pack rat!

[DollyCali]

the girls.. ah...

I had seen this prior In a plain email.. this is so much better.

some of them still use their plastic surgeons, you think?

[JustAmy]

LOL

Ya can store most of it in that huge barn.

I hope all of my Finest FRiends will need a place to park.

Happy Weekend, Dolly.

[DollyCali]

thank you. It is easy to read the news & then forget..

pix help m e remember.. even things I wish never happened so I dont have to remember..

God bless those people in their unimaginable pain & God bless those fellow countrymen & foreign friends who are assisting in the rescue, clean up & overall aftermath

[NicknamedBob]

"Where are OESY, NicknamedBob and Darksheare?"

I can't speak for the others, but I just got back from a wedding reception.

Now I have to attend to a few chores and then ... well, who knows?

[OESY]

Truly heartbreaking, as so many of these tragedies are for the people who have suffered.

[OESY]

Thanks for the memories...

World Telecommunication Day? You've come a long way, baby.

.

[JustAmy]

I was sure I would find you on the beautiful women post.

;^ )

We went to dinner and just got home so I’m trying to catch up.

Happy World Telecommunication Day!!

[NicknamedBob]

"I was sure I would find you on the beautiful women post."

Well, I got my chores done, or promised to. I decided to write a poem. You know how that goes.

It doesn't have anything to do with women, but ... given time ...

I Only Want

I only want a million days,
To loll around and squander,
And idly, in a drunkard’s path,
About the hills to wander.

A million days of sunrise,
Begetting jeweled morn,
And sultry softened afternoons,
With rain no hint to warn.

The rain may fall in eventide,
To lull a resting soul,
As smiling for the joy of life,
Relinquishes control.

Such perfect days are metered,
We get so very few,
A million such seem adequate,
If one has aught to do.

I’d intersperse them with a touch,
Of raw days and of storm,
Which wouldn’t count among the list,
Just give excuse to warm,

While waiting out the frozen count,
Of days on which I feed,
Before the fire of stored delight,
Preserved for such a need.

Great .... thank you.

Now, I wonder if I can find the perfect graphic. Maybe with a little searching.

[JustAmy]

Beautiful, Cardhu.

Thank you.

[JustAmy]

Awww ... this is a cute picture.

Thank you.

[JustAmy]

Wow .... thank you, OESY.

Great information on carousels and thank you for the links.

Hope you enjoyed Merry-Go-Round Day.

See you tomorrow.

Good morning, all!


Theories on roosters that cross the road:

1. Albert Einstein: Whether the Rooster crossed the road or the road moved beneath the Rooster depends upon your relative point of view. The Rooster did not cross the road - it transcended it.

2. Sir Isaac Newton: A Rooster at rest tends to stay at rest. Rooster in motion tend to cross the road.

3. Quantum Logic Rooster: The Rooster is distributed probabilistically on all sides of the road until you observe it on the side after his atoms collided.

4. Cray Rooster: Crosses faster than any other Rooster, but if you don't dip him in liquid nitrogen first, it arrives on the other side fully cooked.

5. Barack Obama Rooster: I fight for the Roosters and I am fighting for the Roosters right now. I will not give up on the Roosters crossing the road! I will fight for the Roosters and I will not disappoint them. Did I mention that I voted against the road and bridge maintenance bill before I voted for it?
