WFB's attempt to emulate us ; ) No pushing at the door please!
Studded snow tires are already on the ti-mobile. I am ready and waiting. -and I have to be feeling brave to enter the religous threads and actually post.
I perspicaciously checked my pings and this was the first one I received this morning.
It happened in my town, but I’m innocent and have an ironclad alibi.
Huh! I set up class last night and set the computer on “sleep”.....I woke up once in the early hours and came down, hit a few buttons to post class and went back to bed.
-delivering a baby no doubt. Figures the perv is a “journalist”........LOL
That’s okay. I always know where to find the class. :-)
Ah yes, the perspicacious Freepers were on the ball on that luive thread..........thankfully one mentioned that AMC was showing “Blazing Saddles.”
I made it through the first 30 minutes of the debate, but Mel Brooks is far more realistic than the chackling of the dimms :)
Hillary’s CACKLE was so loud and obnoxious.......I could not believe she just shut it off. Someone got to her.....I hope Rush or some radio show caught it........I never laughed so hard. I swear the first hundred posts mentioned the Cankle’s cackcle..........too funny.
Here....
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday, Dear Laura,
Happy Birthday to Youuuuuuuuu.
I decided to take a nap so I would be fresh for the debate, and mercifully slept thru the whole thing.
thankee
Lawsy, Miss Scarlett! I don't knows nuthin' 'bout birthin' no babies!
I snorted root beer and laughed myself silly. It was great entertainment.
When hillary says..”OH, Campbell....” in her best bedroom voice I actually cried I laughed so hard. There were some pretty good jokes on the thread.
-sure ya do. You just have to remember to “catch” and that if you “drop the baby - pick it up”. At least that’s what they taught us in Big Bertha’s Medic school in the cold frozen north.
Smart girl!!!!!!!!
“Blazing Saddles” was far, far more enjoyable!!!
The fart scene or the cackle scene.......I don’t know - they were both pretty funny.
ROFL!!!!
it’s SNOWING! A huge snow squal has hit NY....nothing sticking but it’s pouring down.
We have horrible, horrible wind, but at least the sun is shining.
