[Conspiracy Guy]

Or BOWLING

[camle]

she seldom cooked, since it was only her. now she fixes up some nice dead animal or other every friday night and sometimes on sunday - with all the trimmings.

I usually cook on saturdays.

[camle]

after my divorce went final, i was feeling some euphoria since it never should have occured anyway. that wqs the best thing ever happened to me.

now this one, she gives me a full year afterwards before asking me to dinner...

[P.O.E.]

I'm up early for a change.

[xsmommy]

well he would also say that i spend a lot of money, that i am messy and undisciplined. just so we get all the cards out on the table.

[hobbes1]

She doesn't cook, she doesn't clean, she PMSes 25 days out of 31,

Well, there is that really great rack... ; )

[Conspiracy Guy]

I'd rather be with Laura Earl on a bad day than any other woman I've known on a good day. Did you see the story about the dang horse faced creeps ?

[hobbes1]

he would also say that i spend a lot of money, that i am messy and undisciplined.

But then you come back to the rack... ; )

[xsmommy]

Now there is one word that does NOT fit The Queen of Salsa. RIP Celia Cruz.

[camle]

OH NICE!! so he cares enough to put with ya, eh?

well, the more I see, the more I am convinved that the big guy in da sky is watching over me. there is no other explanation for how things have happened.

she had a brain aneurism several years ago that dern near killed her. My pal at YNH hospital told me not to bother coming down, she was that bad. spent the better part of a year getting back on her feet. two days later she was back at work.

shew was one of very few who had such a thing and survived, let alone who had almost no lasting damage (except possibly her taste in men:-))

[xsmommy]

i guess in my favor he could say that i am a stoic and not a whiner.

[xsmommy]

i have other redeeming qualities, darling. RME.

[hobbes1]

My dad had the same thing. Had Brain Surgery 4 times. HE also thankfully did not suffer any ill effects except that it aged him.


He went into the hospital a very young man for his age, and came out an old man for his age....

[camle]

well, I told my coquette that i'm hers for as long as she can stand me. she tells me that I am good for HER. I tell her that this is backwards.

and I saw the horseface Kerry joke. Still think it looks like Marylin Quayle

[camle]

he's fixated on your anatomy. I always thought there was more to you than that...

[LonePalm]

Good Morning All,

I can't write any poetry today until my prosaic wears off.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)
LonePalm, le Républicain du verre cassé (The Broken Glass Republican)

[camle]

well, there are advantages to stoicism. as long as it doesnt' build up inside.

[xsmommy]

i flush myself regularly ; )

[camle]

sorry to hear about yer dad. HErs comes from disbetes. during her ordeal, her eyesight deteriorated to the point where she had to give up driving. she had just purchased a new car (upon my recommendation), and had to sell it. Fortunately she made a few bucks on it.
She never complained, just arranged for her own transportation.

She takes the bus in every day so we can have lunch together. I offer to send the car, but she refuses. she's independent. And she keeps me in cheetos.
