"Feeling saucy, aren't we?;-) Well, you are the birthday boy, so whatever you want....

(Whispers to dub's so xsex can't hear>)...

When did we start calling her "Saucy"?

And where are you feeling her again?

[RikaStrom]

I was buried under a mound of paperwork. I finally dug an escape tunnel just to leave the office.

[SeaDragon]

My finger isn't swolen from a bee sting or anything like that; I'm just happy to see you darling.

LOLOL

And I am happy to see you too, sweet thing.

[Slip18]

Okay, Vast, et al, Miss Slippy is partly here.

Cyber and I were painting on Saturday. He was on a ladder on one wall. I was balancing between two parts of a three-part unhooked sectional couch trying to mask (tape) a mirror. Miss Slippy flew through the air with the greatest of ease. I missed the glass coffee table by a couple of inches.

There's more to the story. Will tell you when I'm less liquidified and drugged tomorrow. Hands got hurt.

[xsmommy]

would you two just SETTLE DOWN over there? calm down and ACT RIGHT! entirely too many calamities coming to pass out AZ-way.

[hobbes1]

Well, you;re getting what you don't want sunday.

A date with Dimpled Chad. (Pennington...Go Jets! ; )

[RikaStrom]

I've got to agree with xs on this one... y'all need to settle down over there! There are way too many accidents coming from the Cyber household. Ya ain't invincible, ya know!

[CholeraJoe]

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
And the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

3 inches overnight and still coming down.

[hobbes1]

3 inches overnight and still coming down.

dude, If I wanted to hear about your senators Sex life...

[CholeraJoe]

LMAO. EEWWWWWW

[hobbes1]

ROTFLMAO!!!

Limbaugh continued: "It's obvious Maureen Dowd hasn't gotten over her breakup with Michael Douglas who she thinks is a real American president but he didn't do anything but utter the words written for him by Aaron Sorkin and stand where someone director told him to stand and have his hair coifed by somebody who knew what to do, and then he blew it by running off with Catherine Zeta-Jones, leaving Maureen Dowd in the lurch. All she's got now is bourbon for mouthwash, and it's showing on her columns."

[hobbes1]

Sorry About that..It's early!

[RikaStrom]

lol, no prob.

[hobbes1]

From the tone and tenor of that remark, one is forced to wonder, if El Rushbo, has been luring this thread, channeling mine and Dubyas comments about the miserable *itch.

If he starts in about the Picture of Algore, and a Six Pack of batteries...we'll know.

[Slip18]

We're just calamity prone right now because there is so much to do after the flooding. It will be okay. Hands are now working this morning, but don't want to stress them any more than is necessary.

Xs, are you okay? Just read about the sniper. Are you going in to D.C. today in that traffic?

[Slip18]

Is that three inches of snow or rain?

[xsmommy]

i'm fine, slip. my route was not affected by the shooting. this is getting totally ridiculous and has been for some time. it isn't really disrupting my life to any extent, but it is unsettling that he cannot be captured. also, the fact that he returned to Aspen Hill (if this is indeed him, and i think it must be)then one can't rely on the fact that he won't return to the vicinity where he has been previously. that had sort of comforted me up til now.

[xsmommy]

there is nothing in your house that needs doing so badly that you need to kill yourself accomplishing it. do you hear me?

[CholeraJoe]

Snow. "Just enough of that sticky stuff to hold the seams on your fine blue jeans."

[CholeraJoe]

there is nothing in your house that needs doing so badly that you need to kill yourself accomplishing it.

UM, xs could you talk to my wife about this please?
