Thank you, yorkie! And the one you sent is quite attractive too! I especially liked:
Think Water
Think Sun
Think Beaches and Waterfall
Think Warm
THINK SPRING!
I think I can pass that test very easy. Its on its way!!
This looks so YUMMY! By the way, my DIL fixed a gift bag of goodies for me at Christmas (like a stocking, except a stocking wouldn’t hold all the stuff she put in it.) And she included about 4 pkgs. of Ghirardelli double chocolate hot cocoa mix. I’ve fixed one cup so far loaded with marshmallows and it was delicious. She also included several pkgs. of Land O Lakes hot chocolate mix, too. I didn’t even know Land O Lakes had hot chocolate mix!
I wish I could tell you what all was in my surprise package but I dearly loved it. (2 bottles Bath and Body hand soap and a large shower gel shower bath wash which I love!
Thank you for the cup of hot chocolate!
Sooooo funneeeeee!
I copied this and put it in my email Recipe file! I haven’t been back to that website yet....LOL!
Thank you! I love Lemon Bars and Lemon Pie! I make that Lemon Pie that is on the box of cornstarch...its delicious and has meringue, too!
Mrsdd has been IMing with our nephew in Afghanistan. A real competitor by nature and he loves to win, indicates that the war in Afghanistan will be won by our troops.
Salute to our Armed Forces, Past and Present.
Sorry Max is sick. Hope the antibiotics will get rid of it quickly. They have a dog food for older dogs who are overweight....have you thought about that, maybe? It will probably take a while for him to get used to it but he will adapt. Good Luck and wishing for a speedy recovery!
And may I send you all my blessings for tomorrow for Mr.Just’s surgery. I think dreading it is the worst. I will remember you all in my prayers this evening, Amy. We’ll be looking forward to hearing from you all. ((((Hugs)))))
Lamh Foistenach Abu!
I'm so happy that your nephew and all our beloved military have such a great attitude about winning. We are all with him and our Military and this war! The only ones who have that pessimistic attitude are the leftie Dems and some like the craziest network in the world, MSNBC!
May God be with your wonderful nephew and all others who are fighting for US and our Country.
I don’t know I may have got mixed up and put it on twice :^).
I get mixed up all the time.
I've been on FR for 91 doggie years!
Weinie
Amen! They are the greatest....and please thank your nephew for his brave and loyal service, Dave!
I REALLY FEEL STUPID SOMETIMES WHEN ON THE COMPUTER, BUT THIS IMPROVES MY MORALE.
Priceless Tech Support Calls
Customer: ‘I’ve been calling 700-1000 for two days and can’t get through;
Can you help?’
Operator: ‘Where did you get that number, sir?’
Customer: ‘It’s on the door of your business.’
Operator: ‘ Sir, those are the hours that we are open.’
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Samsung Electronics
Caller: ‘Can you give me the telephone number for Jack?’
Operator: ‘I’m sorry, sir, I don’t understand who you are talking about.’
Caller: ‘On page 1, section 5, of the user guide it clearly states that I
Need to unplug the fax machine from the AC wall socket and
Telephone Jack before cleaning. Now, can you give me the
Number for Jack?’
Operator: ‘I think it means the telephone plug on the wall.’
This has to be one of the funniest things in a long time. I think this guy should
Have been promoted, not fired. This is a true story from the WordPerfect Helpline,
Which was transcribed from a recording monitoring the customer care department. Needless to
Say the Help Desk employee was fired; however, he/she is currently suing
The WordPerfect organization for ‘Termination without Cause.’
Actual dialogue of a former WordPerfect Customer Support employee.
(Now I know why they record these conversations!):
Operator: ‘Ridge Hall, computer assistance; may I help you?’
Caller: ‘Yes, well, I’m having trouble with WordPerfect.’
Operator: ‘What sort of trouble??’
Caller: ‘Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words
Went away.’
Operator: ‘Went away?’
Caller: ‘They disappeared’
Operator: ‘Hmm. So what does your screen look like now?’
Caller: ‘Nothing.’
Operator: ‘Nothing??’
Caller: ‘It’s blank; it won’t accept anything when I type.’
Operator: ‘Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out?’
Caller: ‘How do I tell?’
Operator: ‘Can you see the ‘C: prompt’ on the screen?’
Caller: ‘What’s a sea-prompt?’
Operator: ‘Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?’
Caller: ‘There isn’t any cursor; I told you, it won’t accept anything I
Type.’
Operator: ‘Does your monitor have a power indicator??’
Caller: ‘What’s a monitor?’
Operator: ‘It’s the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV.
Does it have a little light that tells you when it’s on?’
Caller: ‘I don’t know.’
Operator: ‘Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where
The power cord goes into it. Can you see that??’
Caller: ‘Yes, I think so.’
Operator: ‘Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it’s
Plugged into the wall.
Caller: ‘Yes, it is.’
Operator: ‘When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that
there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just
one? ‘
Caller: ‘No.’
Operator: ‘Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and
find the other cable.’
Caller: ‘Okay, here it is.’
Operator: ‘Follow it for me, and tell me if it’s plugged securely into
the back of your computer.’
Caller: ‘I can’t reach.’
Operator: ‘OK. Well, can you see if it is?’
Caller: ‘No.’
Operator: ‘Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean
way over?’
Caller: ‘Well, it’s not because I don’t have the right angle — it’s
because it’s dark.’
Operator: ‘Dark?’
Caller: ‘Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is
coming in from the window.’
Operator: ‘Well, turn on the office light then.’
Caller: ‘I can’t.’
Operator: ‘No? Why not?’
Caller: ‘Because there’s a power failure.’
Operator: ‘A power ... A power failure? Aha. Okay, we’ve got it
licked now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and
packing stuff that your computer came in?’
Caller: ‘Well, yes, I keep them in the closet.’
Operator: ‘Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it
up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to
the store you bought it from.’
Caller: ‘Really? Is it that bad?’
Operator: ‘Yes, I’m afraid it is.’
Caller: ‘Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them?’
Operator: ‘Tell them you’re too stupid to own a computer!’
Yes, DD! A BIG salute to our Armed Forces - Past and Present! Thank you for the update, and prayers for your nephew continue!
The kids filed back into class Monday morning. They were very excited. Their weekend assignment was to sell something, then give a talk on productive salesmanship.
Little Sally led off: "I sold girl scout cookies and I made $30," she said proudly, "My sales approach was to appeal to the customer's civil spirit and I credit that approach for my obvious success."
"Very good," said the teacher.
Little Jenny was next: "I sold magazines," she said, "I made $45 and I explained to everyone that magazines would keep them up on current events."
"Very good, Jenny," said the teacher.
Eventually, it was Little Jimmy's turn. The teacher held her breath ... Little Jimmy walked to the front of the classroom and dumped a box full of cash on the teacher's desk. "$2,467," he said. "$2,467!" cried the teacher, "What in the world were you selling" ? Toothbrushes," said Little Jimmy.
"Toothbrushes," echoed the teacher, "How could you possibly sell enough tooth brushes to make that much money?"
"I found the busiest corner in town," said Little Jimmy Noon, "I set up a Dip & Chip stand, I gave everybody who walked by a free sample."
They all said the same thing, "Hey, this tastes like dog crap!"
Then I would say, "It is dog crap. Wanna buy a toothbrush? I used the President Obama method of giving you something like potty, but looks good, for free, and then making you pay to get the bad taste out of your mouth." The teacher was speechless.
. Little Jimmy Noon got 5 stars for his efforts, bless his heart. That's our boy Jim.
I finally answered your posts to me today, yorkie!
Salute to our Armed Forces
:)
And a salute to "our nephew"!!
