THe ***OFFICIAL *** Weekend singles thread. (Apr. 21-23
4-21-06 | Rca2000, Victoria Delsoul

Posted on 04/21/2006 4:03:23 PM PDT by Rca2000



OK, GUYS, LET'S S ROLL!!

I thought Maybe a good way to begin tonight's discussions would be for us to share about some of the best pranks and jokes that we either played on someone,(or someone played on us) when we were younger(or nowadays, for that matter)

Also, we could share about some of the crazy things we used to do, when we were younger(or perhaps still do) that were seen as fun at the time, but look foolhardy to us today.

I'll start things off, and share about one thing I did about 20 years or so ago, when I was 18-19. I would go on little "scenic routes" as I used to call them. (keep in mind that in 1986-87 gas was WAY less than $1.00 a gallon). Now, I did not just drive around aimlessly, but I had a friend named Paul with me. And Paul was a LOT more daring than I!! while I drove, Paul tossed bottles, cans, eggs and fireworks out of the car, mainly at road signs, but also at a few mailboxes. I egged him on, and thought it was a LOT of fun!! Paul conned me into believing that I was not doing anything wrong, since I was "just driving". (I just have to chalk that up to youthful stupidity...) In reality, I would had been the ONLY one to get into trouble had we been caught, because PAUL WAS ON HOUSE ARREST at the time, for a B&E that he and some others had been involved in , AND he was only 17!! SO, had we gotten caught,(and in early '87 we ALMOST did!!) I would had gotten the book thrown at me, for vandalism, littering, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and who knows what else!!

I'll reserve the stories about me messing with gunpowder, acid, gasoline,lighter fluid and fireworks for another time!!! (He....He... He..)

SO... Does anyone else care to share anything(that the statue of limitations has expired on !!) LOL!!

I don't think anyone else is signed up there. But I live in Corona, California, and I did not expect to see it as a city marked on a national map.

Nice Job on the thread RCA/Victoria..

I looked at the code, Victoria, and I think it is one of those things that formats up fine with a regular post but when in the POST THREAD form, it falls apart .. several reasons. It appears that a check spelling was done on it in the regular course of checking it out & it added a few little things that in thread posting makes the tables do what they did. Most here prolly did NOT notice what it should have been.. I can see it, and a few others here prolly can also.

You were a sweetheart for doing all that work for RCA with his input on content.

And the music.. wow. One of the first I played got the dogs going.. must be some sound that is in a range they either LIKE or don't LIKE as they were howling!

Thank you for being such a great contributor here!

Victoria or Max.. can either of you post the ping tomorrow? If you cannot, I can but it would be early as I am leaving the house at about 4 or so for day/evening. No dates tomorrow.. but two benefits. One for a couple at church with awful adoption legal fees because the birth father has stirred up a hornet's nest. 2nd is an animal rescue group.. in Akron.

I am not sure what happened with the ping url not working..

RCA.. hope you had a successful trip. Nothing worse than hauling it all back & esp with that long of a trip & the high price of gas. You were very conscientious to post the thread with all on your plate this weekend.

Max, I know you are busy/exhausted with the new job etc. It is good to "see" you. You always brighten up the forum with your presence!

wow, you had a busy day also! I have done a lot of yard work the past couple weeks but it is a drop in bucket. LOTS more to do.. not for "showcase" ... just for presentable.

I learned to play bridge on my honeymoon of all places.!

Bob & I went to Canada for 3 weeks. First week we had reservations at a really, nice lodge.. and the next two weeks we poked around & found a place in Ontario, not far from Algonquin called the Jackknife Lodge. We had a 5 bedroom rustic (yes, full kitchen, heat, plumbing etc.. by rustic, I mean log cabinish) place to our selves. There was however NO restaurant close so first night a nice older couple (they were maybe in 50s invited us to their place for dinner). He was president of a bank in Toronto. We had a great dinner & they taught us to play bridge. We decided to stay there for 3 more weeks! we played bridge with them almost daily at various times & they always fed us! The traveled with a housekeeper/cook.

Not at the moment, but I will be leaving town tomorrow at about 7am (pacific time) and returning about 11pm.

It'll be a very long day (and drive).

Before I go to bed, I'd just like to say don't ever talk to me again. That was an absolutely ridiculous comment and I don't speak to ridiculous people. So get lost.

See? You have no reason to be paranoid about scaring people off.

Except Helen Thomas. But we WANT to scare her off.

Thanks.

It will definitely be an interesting trip, that's for sure.

Long story very short, I'll be visiting my feudin' family tomorrow.  Apparently there was a major family fight on Easter.  I was with my husband's family so I didn't get see all the fur fly, but I did get to hear all the gory details the next day.

Anyway, I just hope tomorrow goes by quickly and quietly.
