cookies are sweet

I was in a whimsical mood yesterday. The wife called it something else, but I prefer whimsical.

:gravely voice: Hey Susie! :even more gravely voice: Yes Pat. :gravely voice: Have you noticed that little Timmy has a tan, even in the winter. :even more gravely voice: Yeah. What's up with that? :gravely voice: I don't know, but sure is weird. 1-2 yrs later :gravely voice: Hey Susie! :even more gravely voice: Yes Pat. :gravely voice: I think little Timmy may not be 100% white. :even more gravely voice: You know Pat, I think your right. I wonder if there is a way to make some money out of this? :gravely voice: I know! Let's sue! Disclaimer: The above parody is not meant to

I'm just glad my parents didn't have anyone to sue after they had me. After all, it is hard to sue Mother Nature.

One of the best song and dance scenes in TV history.

One piece of the solution is to have a cohesive family to raise a child in. By that I do not mean a family where the mother and father are married and everyone lives in the same home, although I do think that is the best way to raise a child. (that is presuming that the parents don't hate each other and are staying together "for the children") It is tough raising a kid when both the mother and father are trying to teach them right from wrong. In the past, when the father was not around, and sadly it was traditionally the man who ran off and left his family, the mother was a strong parental

I guess a narrow spread is acceptable. I have to wonder who vetts these news releases.

I know the words thunderstuck, hell's bell's, highway to hell, but not as songs. I quit listening to current music in 1984, from 1980-1984 I really cut waaay down on how much "new" music I listened to. To my knowledge I have never heard on of their songs. But the wife says they are/were BIG. It is a shame that anyone has to have that disease and it is still amazing to me that it can kill you, but my brother's mother-in-law died at a relatively early age from that very thing. Like you said, Dementia and Alzheimer are horrible things, both for the person who has it and the family and

I agree 100%, about the dementia and Alzheimer's, I have no idea who ACDC is.

You and the other minions of the Dark Lord can call them what you want, but those of us who are able to go outside in the daytime, without bursting into flames, know what the good and proper names for these symbols are: # = pound sign (or for some of real old timers, the tic-tac-toe sign) ! = exclamation point And don't be posting none of your fancy black magic spells on here either. All scripts in unix/linux start with the line: #!/bin/sh -or- #!/bin/env/python ...etc...etc Be gone bad juju! I will fight you and your hordes of evil doers till the end! (when that en

Riiiiiight, like I could get that much foil.

The problem is criminals that commit crimes.

I take that as a complement, but as far as I know, those are my thoughts. (of course I sleep with the TV on, so....?)

HEY! Leave me out of your feuds. I'm doing the best with what I got.

Manny, Moe and Jack? It does get my motor running.

Yeh and Blondie always has a basement, but that ain't always a good thing. (at least the Blondie basement part)

In that case, I am in good company.

We all know that phrase, A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet. But what about things other than a rose? Would a different name for them "smell" as sweet? I have noticed a disturbing trend in the world today to rename things. Things that have had the same name for....ever....are now getting a new name, often more than one new name. Nooooo, I am not talking about conversating for conversation, what I am talking about the is the total erasure of a name. Take for example the poor mistreated pound sign, #. For years the pound sign did it's job as needed, without asking

I bought extra duct tape!

I hate political polls. They are designed to get the numbers they are wanting. Even more so for the automated polls. That is why I love messing with them, live and automated. I just took an automated poll in which I was a member of the Tea Party, who thinks Obama is doing a great job. Women shouldn't be in the armed services, but gays and lesbians are OK. The government is out of control, but we should increase spending. Ohhh, I am also a member of the Democratic Party. I forget the rest, but I sure wish a real person was going to have to look at my answers. Awwww, crap! We got

I love it, especially when you do bold and italics!

So you've been to the office. (just kidding pubby)

for the bold blue

I stopped by the pcom offices this afternoon and spent a few minutes talking with pubby. As usual, it was fun with a lot of laughs and some disagreeing. (I don't want to say who was right and who was wrong.........but I was right) The whole time I was there, I had a strong sense of deja vu, I just knew that I had experienced this conversation before, in fact, I was sure it had happened many many times. It was a real weird experience, one of which had me baffled and confused.....that is until a short time after I left pubby and the wife called me. She asked what I was up to and I told h

I would suggest that vacationers drive carefully through the other 48 continental states, but that is just me.
