It's too quiet

[Genna14]

I'll have to check it out. I just saw a music vid on KTV with Phil Joel in it. Is he in a new band??

[jesus loves me]

Do I ever want to go on Sunday? nope.

[Genna14]

Casting Pearls. My mom knows who they are too, oddly enough. I guess they play them on KLOVE.

[Genna14]

I <3 this thread! PLEASE DONT DIEEEEEEE

[jesus loves me]

Casting Pearls. My mom knows who they are too, oddly enough. I guess they play them on KLOVE. casting pearls?

[Genna14]

Some band I heard on KTV the other day. Phil Joel is in it. :D

[ZippyApplePants]

Some band I heard on KTV the other day. Phil Joel is in it. :D

I did not know that. I thought he was doing the solo thing. Thanks for the heads up Genna.

[Genna14]

I know right. I thought he went off by himself and stuff, then I saw him on KTV. They're pretty good too, although not entirely my style.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

The frontman for Casting Pearls used to be in Newsboys. I don't remember his name....

[Genna14]

I wouldn't know, he didn't look familiar to me at all.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

He wasn't with them long. They needed a guitar player, so he went on tour with them. So he wasn't an official part of the band.

[Genna14]

Yeah I figured.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Well, you figured right.

[Genna14]

I'm generally never wrong. About anything.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Well, except the part about never being wrong.

[NurseBettyLu]

I was wrong once -- that time I thought I'd made a mistake and really hadn't.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Well, at least you got a taste of what it feels like.

[NurseBettyLu]

Yes, a very humbling experience.

[Genna14]

This discussion reminds me of one between Vincent Antonelli *Tod* (Steve Martin), Hannah Stubbs (Joan Cusack), and Barney Coopersmith (Rick Moranis) on My Blue Heaven.


"Let me ask you a question..have you ever been wrong?"-Barney

"Yes! Once!"-Hannah

"The shoes, right? The shoes are tragic!"-Vincent

[pamcharlie]

I am back and i was so sick last week with a sinus infection and it really knocked me out for a few days i much better now and i was able to go to church the sunday morning i was really unwell but i did go and get pray for healing and i was able just to go and see a high school production of hamlet too. and last weekend i went to my churches women's conference and i was great we had a room called the pamper room and i had a lovely foot soak and massage and a shoulders neck and back and head massage and i also had my nails done too, and i went to a workshop about dating for christians and i was so encouraged in that one and we had a lovely morning tea and lunch too. I will share more .

[Genna14]

I didnt notice you weren't here, but then again I haven't been around much either.

[NurseBettyLu]

Wasn't here either. Lightening got my cheap dinky little computer. Replaced today by what I wanted in the first place. Also bought the mother of all surge protectors.

[Genna14]

I thought we had the mother of all surge protectors...

DEATH TO SSR. DEATHHHHHHHH

[pamcharlie]

Lightning took out your computer oh no , best advice i have heard is to switch off the computer at the wall before a thunder storm comes to prevent lightning strikes

[NurseBettyLu]

That's what I was doing when it happened. I felt a tingle in my fingers and just dropped everything, just before the CRRRRACK! I'm suprised I didn't get hurt.

[pamcharlie]

That's what I was doing when it happened. I felt a tingle in my fingers and just dropped everything, just before the CRRRRACK! I'm suprised I didn't get hurt.

Oh dear nurse betty lu how are the fingers now , one of the ski fields here new zealand has had heaps of snow that could be here for christmas the weather is going crazy .

[Genna14]

I have to pee.

[ZippyApplePants]

I have to pee.


Well there's something I didn't need to know.

[Genna14]

Well there's something I didn't need to know.
Yeah. But I don't care.

[ZippyApplePants]

Yeah. But I don't care.

I had noticed that.

[Genna14]

I had noticed that.
I'm generally a careless person. lol

[pamcharlie]

I had noticed that.

Michael Phelps is the best swimmer everywhere he totally rules the pool !!!!!!!

[Genna14]

If I tried to swim the way he does, I'd throw out my shoulder. As it is I sprained my shoulder in high school.

[NurseBettyLu]

And he looks good in that little Speedo...

[ZippyApplePants]

Michael Phelps is the best swimmer everywhere he totally rules the pool !!!!!!!

He's great at what he does alright.

If I tried to swim the way he does, I'd throw out my shoulder. As it is I sprained my shoulder in high school.

Ouch!

And he looks good in that little Speedo...

LOL!

[Greyshades]

If someone tried to make me wear a speedo, I'd claim I had to pee, and never come out of the bathroom.

[ZippyApplePants]

If someone tried to make me wear a speedo, I'd claim I had to pee, and never come out of the bathroom.

Rotfl! I'm the same way about any swimmimg suit.

[pamcharlie]

Rotfl! I'm the same way about any swimmimg suit.

Did you know that michael is double jointed , there is hockey on the moment and what a pitty due to the rain there was no bmx racing today , there are two kiwi riders in the competition and they did really well yesterday .

[jesus loves me]

We have the u.s. beach volleyball on and they are getting soaked. i loved the bmx racing - very cool.

[Genna14]

Ouch!


I didn't even know I did it for like 4 months. lol

[pamcharlie]

We have the u.s. beach volleyball on and they are getting soaked. i loved the bmx racing - very cool.

Bmx racing is on again tomorrow it is postponed today due the rain .

In the walking before they were getting super soaked with the rain too.

[Genna14]

LOL! I'm now watching the video for "Some Beach" by Blake Shelton. Elliott Sadler just flipped him the bird. HAHAHA! Man I love these stupid vids.

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm really, really sleepy.

[Genna14]

Then go to sleep.

[NurseBettyLu]

Sounds nice. Gotta make supper and then go to w**k. Sleep tomorrow. Maybe.

[ZippyApplePants]

LOL! I'm now watching the video for "Some Beach" by Blake Shelton. Elliott Sadler just flipped him the bird. HAHAHA! Man I love these stupid vids.

Hey I've seen that video before. It's stupid, but very funny.

[Genna14]

Hey I've seen that video before. It's stupid, but very funny.
Lol I know right, I just love Elly's face. He looks so stuck up and pissed. And its so not like him, he's a total sweetheart.

[ZippyApplePants]

Lol I know right, I just love Elly's face. He looks so stuck up and pissed. And its so not like him, he's a total sweetheart.

I've heard he's really nice, and he seemed really funny the few times I've seen him on Trackside.

[Genna14]

I've heard he's really nice, and he seemed really funny the few times I've seen him on Trackside.
He's hilarious, but not as funny as Greg Biffle. I met Elly once up in Glendale and he had the sweetest smile, shook my hand and snuck me an extra sig. hehe

[ZippyApplePants]

He's hilarious, but not as funny as Greg Biffle. I met Elly once up in Glendale and he had the sweetest smile, shook my hand and snuck me an extra sig. hehe

Well that was very cool of him. I have a friend that's a Biff fan.

[Genna14]

Well that was very cool of him. I have a friend that's a Biff fan.
And now you have another friend that's a Biffle fan. I totally adore him, he's really cool. I got him to say hi to my ex's grandpa on the phone. He told him he was Jeff Gordon. I laughed so hard before I told him that Grandpa would hang up on him. lol

[Genna14]

LOL! :D
One time I saw him before a Nationwide race in which he was not entered wearing a sign constructed of a piece of printer paper taped to his chest and scribbled in Sharpie was "Nationwide Driver For Hire. Will Drive For Trophy".

[NurseBettyLu]

Looks like Fay is headed this way. Hopefully won't be bad.

[pamcharlie]

How quite it is here at the moment hey everyone where is everyone ?

[NurseBettyLu]

Here's me.

[pamcharlie]

Hi nurse betty lu , i am super how are you and i am at the moment listening to the coverage of the rythmic gymnastics at the olympics oh those chinese gymnasts they are lying about their age they are 13 not 16 but what should happen before the games end they should be asked to hand back the gold medals and give them to the american gymnastics team .

[NurseBettyLu]

It's very quiet here as I don't have the tv on or anything like that. Mom has gone to bed, and KittyBoy is waiting on the back of her chair for me to go to bed. He will go with me and curl up on the other pillow. Oh, this tea's good, just the right amount of honey. Local unprocessed honey is good for hay fever, you know.

[pamcharlie]

Have a great sleep how is kitty boy , charlie is fine and as for basil he is bouncing around the place at times . I will be back after church tomorrow . c you all tomorrow lunch time new zealand time . or soon after lunch new zealand depending how long church will be since my pastor is away .

[NurseBettyLu]

KittyBoy is a little nervous today, I think he senses bad weather on the way. So far just a few gusts of wind and intermittant sprinkles. Why do I get the sinking feeling this stupid storm is gonna strand me at w**k in the morning?

[pamcharlie]

Oh no, hope not what will kitty boy do ? Basil is showing me how flexible he is by preening his foot , he is so funny , he is preening is back at the moment.

[Genna14]

Mona woke me up this morning at 5:30 am. I have a general rule that I kill anyone who wakes me up at that hour, but I was too tired to catch her.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I'll have to remind myself not to wake you up that early.

[Genna14]

If you can run fast, you have nothing to worry about.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I'm not too confident in my running abilities.

[Genna14]

Then don't wake me before 10 am.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

You should be glad you're not my brother. I'm notorious for waking both of my brothers up by singing to them. :)

[pamcharlie]

Then don't wake me before 10 am.

That's my rule too , but only on the weekends on saturday mornings since i stay up late on friday watching dvds and tv .

[Genna14]

You should be glad you're not my brother. I'm notorious for waking both of my brothers up by singing to them. :)
I wouldn't be the same if I was your brother. For one, I'm a girl.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I wouldn't be the same if I was your brother. For one, I'm a girl.
This is true. But I would still sing to you if you were my sister.

[Genna14]

This is true. But I would still sing to you if you were my sister.
And I would kill you. You'd get about 4 bars out before I killed you.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

And I would kill you. You'd get about 4 bars out before I killed you.
You couldn't have my death on your conscience.

[pamcharlie]

No one wake Genna up before 10am or she will growl and hunt the person who woke her down , with her dust bunnies ready to attack

[Genna14]

You couldn't have my death on your conscience.
I don't have a conscience to put your death on.

[pamcharlie]

It is too super quite here where is everyone and did everyone enjoy the olympics I did but it is back to boring tv , but thankfully i have sport channels to watch and the us tennis open starts this week yeah , so no boredom just plenty of action . Oh i have to do the washing now , but i will be back very soon and tomorrow i have preschoolers every second tuesday church it will be great .

[NurseBettyLu]

"Waking a person unnecessarily should not be considered a capitol crime. For the first offense, that is." (The Notebooks of Lazarus Long, Robert A. Heinlein)

[Genna14]

Its a crime to me.

[pamcharlie]

It is also a crime to me too, especially how to me sleep like exercise is super important

[NurseBettyLu]

KittyBoy just knocked over the trash.

[jesus loves me]

Baaddd kitty. we use to hang ours from the doorknob at night!

[pamcharlie]

Both Charlie , Basil and Kitty Boy should team up , basil and kitty boy would be bouncing all over the place

[NurseBettyLu]

And he got the toilet paper this morning.

[Genna14]

Put him in the corner.

[pamcharlie]

And he got the toilet paper this morning.

Charlie did that when he was a kitten and basil has not learnt how to unravel the toilet paper yet .

[NurseBettyLu]

We're not talking unravel here, we're talking total shred. It looks like a blizzard in there.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Snow!? Where?

[ZippyApplePants]

Snow!? Where?

We had snow on the tops of the mountains here a couple of days ago. It didn't last long though.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

But I bet it'll be there to stay before too long.

[ZippyApplePants]

But I bet it'll be there to stay before too long.

Yeah, I'll let you know in a month! :D

[pamcharlie]

We're not talking unravel here, we're talking total shred. It looks like a blizzard in there.

Bad , Bad Kitty boy that is very bad , no toliet paper blizzards please .

[jesus loves me]

Kitties just wanna have fun. my last one thought wires were spaghetti. he got more than one set of headphones and one set of speakers.

[pamcharlie]

Kittens are delightful even their antics can make one laugh

[jesus loves me]

True! i did laugh the last time he got my headphones: i had my walkman cassette and he was 'sleeping' in bed with me. i was gone a minute to go to the bathroom and when i returned he was awake and had already chewed the cord to the headphones. i just busted out laughing. he was clever making me think he was asleep!

[pamcharlie]

Charlie is a clown at times when sits on me and he blocks my view of the tv he also has the element of surprise when he surprises me too. but as for basil he is crazy , he is also known as boingo as in the villian in hoodwinked but his boucing around the place he is so much like twitchy the one who acts if he has drunk one cup of coffee too many . Oh i have to dash i have small group tonight it is worship night should be great .

[Genna14]

We might be moving to New York. Its finally starting to sink in that I might be a Forestport, NY Gomer this time next year!

[NurseBettyLu]

I want to move. Sick of hurricanes. Looks like there's a good chance we'll get a direct hit from Gustav.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Come to Tennessee. It's a nice place. No hurricanes. Arkansas's good, too. No hurricanes there either.

[NurseBettyLu]

I want to live someplace with four distinct seasons, none of which are named hurricane. I want to be where the weatherman never says words like "landfall" or "storm surge". I NEVER want to stand in line for ice, water, MRE's or gas again. I'm getting too old for this mess.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Yeah, we don't do that here. But I'm not quite so sure about the distinct seasons. I suppose they're distinct enough, but the weather does get kind of wacky sometimes. Now Arkansas.....the weather's always wacky there....but still no hurricanes.

[Genna14]

Come to Tennessee. It's a nice place. No hurricanes. Arkansas's good, too. No hurricanes there either.
Its a nice place until the allergy season hits, then its misery! So I've heard. Its up to my parents where we move, not me. I'm going wherever they go. My BFF lives in NYC, so I'd rather move to NY than anywhere. Also my ex friend, who turned out to be a complete psycho, lives in Knoxville, so I'd rather not be in the same state as her.

True. Tennessee is bad for allergies. I've never had allergy problems in Arkansas, but I have here.

I kind of know what you mean, except I'd like to live in a place with four distinct seasons, none of them named "monsoon". Here its either winter or summer. Spring and fall last approximately one month each. Ridiculous.


True. Tennessee is bad for allergies. I've never had allergy problems in Arkansas, but I have here.

I used to have really bad allergies here. It was so bad once my eyes were swollen shut! I used to be allergic to the olive trees when I was younger, but I outgrew it.

[NurseBettyLu]

I just want to live where I don't spend every June-November with a great big target painted on my rear end. Got to go to the store now. This will not be fun. Gassed up this morning and had to wait in a four-deep line at the pump. At a quarter of seven, yet. Stay tuned for more griping.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Ooh, I can't wait.

[NurseBettyLu]

I knew you'd be excited, Emily. All done with supply gathering. It was hell on wheels. People out there are starting to get just a titch panicky. I wanted to start singing "It's the End of the World As We Know It", but I resisted

[jesus loves me]

we were like that in nashville and in s.e. tn. for ice storms. we baked though as we were all electric. not scary though like what y'all have.

[pamcharlie]

We are entering spring here in new zealand and the weather people lied about this weekend being fine it is cloudy

[Genna14]

I'm really tired.

[NurseBettyLu]

Me too.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Me three.

[jesus loves me]

Four!

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Five! Oh wait. I already said three...

[NurseBettyLu]

You can have five as nobody has claimed it.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

In that case, I'll take six, seven and eight as well.

[NurseBettyLu]

Boy, you must be slap wore out.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I am pretty tired. But I think I'm running on adrenaline, so I don't really look tired.

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm running on Black Silk. Tastier than adrenaline.

[ZippyApplePants]

I'm running on Black Silk. Tastier than adrenaline.

It's also easier to get more of. :)

[pamcharlie]

Maybe coffee should be the answer to the fuel crises due the high price of gas

[Genna14]

Boo! :P

[pamcharlie]

What is the situation regarding the hurricane and how long to do all have to wait until it hits

[NurseBettyLu]

Landfall Monday morning still central Louisiana coast as a category4, possibly 5. I'm thinking impact to my area less than originally thought. Just now getting home from w**k, going to bed. Prayers for the people on the Louisiana coast, they haven't really recovered from Katrina yet.

[Genna14]

I'm worried about Amy, she's not worried about herself. She even lived through Katrina and she doesn't seem all that worried.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I have family in Gulf Port, Mississippi. Yesterday, they left home and went to camp out with my grandma in Arkansas. They didn't lose much during Katrina, so hopefully we'll be able to say the same this time around.

[Genna14]

I'm sure they will all be fine. Amy practically lost her house during Katrina, she still never got over it. She refuses to move back to NOLA.

[pamcharlie]

I'm sure they will all be fine. Amy practically lost her house during Katrina, she still never got over it. She refuses to move back to NOLA.

My friend in lake charles facebooked me and let me know that she won't be able to contact on monday your time but will contact we she can , keep safe everyone and new orleans is really in need of prayer at this time again 3 years on from the katrina horror .

[NurseBettyLu]

Can't decide whetheor not to go to w**k tonight.

[ZippyApplePants]

Boo! :P

*screams and faints*

[NurseBettyLu]

*screams and faints*

Now look what you did, Genna! Zipster! Speak to me!

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Wendy can't talk? No, don't wake her. We must take full advantage of this glorious occasion. :P

[ZippyApplePants]

Now look what you did, Genna! Zipster! Speak to me!

Oof, hiya Beth! :D

Wendy can't talk? No, don't wake her. We must take full advantage of this glorious occasion. :P

Shut your trap Slimy! :eek: :P :D

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Who, me?

[NurseBettyLu]

Evidently. Who else does she call slimy?

[ZippyApplePants]

Who, me?

No, your invisible twin! :P :D

Evidently. Who else does she call slimy?

Thank you Beth.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I have an invisible twin?

[NurseBettyLu]

Yes, and she's loads uglier than you.

[ZippyApplePants]

I have an invisible twin?

You didn't know that?

Yes, and she's loads uglier than you.

LOL!

[NurseBettyLu]

I am tired, underslept, and have a case of storm anxiety that has to be seen to be believed. I got tripped up in a blackberry vine while throwing the trashcan under the house. My ankle is bleeding, and I think I piddled my pants. I may cry.

[Genna14]

*screams and faints*

HAHAHAHAHA oops.


Now look what you did, Genna! Zipster! Speak to me!

NOOOOO Don't wake her!!

Wendy can't talk? No, don't wake her. We must take full advantage of this glorious occasion. :P

So with you there girl!

[NurseBettyLu]

I hurt myself.

HAHAHAHAHA oops.




NOOOOO Don't wake her!!



So with you there girl!

Go climb a tree!

[NurseBettyLu]

:( Poor Beth

'S okay. Got a bag of Hershey's kisses. All better now.

[ZippyApplePants]

'S okay. Got a bag of Hershey's kisses. All better now.

Behold, the power of chocolate! :D

[NurseBettyLu]

Love your avvy, girlfriend. You should see the picture of him my sister sent me. Sigh...

[Genna14]

I hurt myself.

Aww do you want a lollipop?


:( Poor Beth



Go climb a tree!


What do you propose I do once I get there?

[NurseBettyLu]

Aww do you want a lollipop?

Yes.

[NurseBettyLu]

What do you propose I do once I get there?

Jump.

[pamcharlie]

May i please have a lolly pop too, Genna? i have some chocolate fudge cookies to share

[NurseBettyLu]

I have Hersheys Kisses. I'd say come on over for sweets, but they just closed the airport.

[Genna14]

Yes.

Here.


Jump.

*grabs lollipop back* Suck it twerp.


May i please have a lolly pop too, Genna? i have some chocolate fudge cookies to share

Here, you can have Beth's.

[NurseBettyLu]

But I already licked it. Twice.

[Genna14]

That's her loss.

[NurseBettyLu]

And it was nasty to begin with.

[Genna14]

I gave you the salt and vinegar flavored one on purpose.

[NurseBettyLu]

Aww, I knew you cared.

[Genna14]

I always show I care.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Yes, and she's loads uglier than you.
I don't know whether to take that as a compliment or an insult.....hold on....what am I saying.....you're a Loon.....it's obviously an insult....
You didn't know that?
Yes, Zipper. I knew. That's obviously why I asked that question. :rolleyes:

[NurseBettyLu]

I don't know whether to take that as a compliment or an insult.....hold on....what am I saying.....you're a Loon.....it's obviously an insult....

At least I didn't say YOU were uglier...

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

At least I didn't say YOU were uglier...
I know. Which is why the thought that it might be a compliment entered my brain.

[NurseBettyLu]

I know. Puzzling, isn' it?

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Indeed.

[NurseBettyLu]

Would you expect anything else from me? Really now. Well, apparently we're still on the grid here. Intermittant rain and winds all night and thruogh the morning. Lights flicker occasionally but no sustained power outs. Spent a very nervous morning with off and on tornado warnings, but that's settled down somewhat. Flash flood warning in effect till sometime tomorrow afternoon. Ick. I want to move.

Move to new zealand , that is a suggestion for everyone

[NurseBettyLu]

KittyBoy says he wants to move to New Zealand. He is lonesome for Basil and Charlie.

[Genna14]

He's so precious! Hehe

[ZippyApplePants]

Is this the cat who thinks trash and toilet paper are toys?

[pamcharlie]

Kitty Boy is adornable, Basil and Charlie will welcome him , they want to be friends with kittyboy and have play sessions with him .

[jesus loves me]

KittyBoy says he wants to move to New Zealand. He is lonesome for Basil and Charlie. he is so adorable!

[Genna14]

I think I should go into marketing.

[jesus loves me]

What be ye wanting to market? i always thought i may have liked it.

[Genna14]

Idk, I believe I can market anything.

[NurseBettyLu]

Is this the cat who thinks trash and toilet paper are toys?

Yes. Don't let that innocent looking exterior fool you.

[jesus loves me]

Yes. Don't let that innocent looking exterior fool you. felines do have a way of looking innocent - even angelic. we know better though!

[ZippyApplePants]

Yes. Don't let that innocent looking exterior fool you.

It doesn't, it is the innocent looking ones you really have to watch.

[pamcharlie]

Yes. Don't let that innocent looking exterior fool you.

So True, Charlie is innocent ,but he is very playful at times, oh i brought him his favourite td from hill's science diet and he went totally crazy about it since he loves science diet is so great for him .

[jesus loves me]

Iams was my last little ones preference. never could get any of mine to eat science diet dry. they liked some of their cans though.

[NurseBettyLu]

I serve wally world's Special Kitty brand. Never could get my cats to touch the premium stuff.

[ZippyApplePants]

Our dogs weren't picky either. Food was food as far as they were concerned.

[Genna14]

Thats how Angel and Hershey are. I think its a cat thing. Mona flatly refused to eat hard food for the first month we had her.

[pamcharlie]

When it comes to his perferences in cat foods both dry and moist charlie is very particular and he can actually turn up his nose towards foods he does not like , but as for basil he eats anything , he has not learnt the fine art of cat dining charlie is very much like gordon ramsay minus the swearing

[jesus loves me]

Lol! charlie the gordon ramsay of cats! 'kitchen nightmares' new season started tonight. back to cats - my 18 year old hated food, period. she liked chips and oreos but of covrse just a taste. anything else forget it. she was a challenge.

[NurseBettyLu]

Glad to hear Charlie doesn't swear.

[jesus loves me]

Glad to hear Charlie doesn't swear. hahahahaha! good one.

LOL. Yeah, Gordon Ramsay has a mouth on him, doesn't he? Used to watch both his shows, but got tired of the constant *bleep*ing that they'd have to do over half the words he'd say. :rolleyes:

So this thread has headed into kitty eating habits, huh? I can contribute to that a little. :)

Our guys are fairly easy to feed here, even though we do have to watch what we give them, and try to avoid anything too dark or too red, since that is murder to clean up off the carpet when they eat too fast and urp it up. Fortunately they seem to like the nice, neutral, not too dark dry Whiskas chicken flavor in the purple bag. With four cats, we usually get the real BIG bags from Petsmart.

Had an interesting turn of events with the last bag we bought. They just plain wouldn't eat it. Well, except for Ozzie, and like mom says, he'll eat DIRT if you put it in a bowl in front of him. LOL. We finally got the lot number off the bottom of the bag and called the Whiskas people to see if they'd changed their formula at all. (Although after that wheat gluten scare a few years ago, I was worried that there was actually something WRONG with it). No change to the formula (they did say that if a particular shipment was left sitting in the heat for too long, like in the back of the truck, that could have an effect on flavor, possibly), but they said to bring it back to the store for a refund or exchange, and that they'd send us a coupon for our trouble.

Boy, did they! They sent two for two free really big bags (17 pounds I think), and several of the smaller bags, as well as free treats. Nice folks there.

Replacement bag seems to be fine (even better than fine, since it was free!), everyone is eating like before.

Here's a recent kitty shot (two of our four) I just pulled off the compact flash card that I must have shot last month. That's Shelley on top, and Lucy squeezed inside. Some of the favorite toys occupy the bottom floor.

Great pic! Just begging for a lolcat caption.

[jesus loves me]

Love the cat pic! my former roomate's cat only likes white meat chicken - if it isn't dry! i love gordon but his 'bleeps' do get annoying.

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm really, really incredibly, mind blowingly sleepy.

[Genna14]

So not in the mood for attitudes today. I'm ready to just sign off AIM and be done with it. Ug! Here she is crying that her grandma isn't letting her out of the house...At least she HAS her grandma.

I would give anything just to have my grandma back for one day, even if she was in the worst mood ever.

[pamcharlie]

Charlie is fine and basil is fine too, it seems that spring is taking a holiday it is raining again UGH !!!!! Where is the lovely sunshine of spring it was lovely in the weekend but now RAIN!!!!!

[NurseBettyLu]

Here comes Ike, y'all!

[Genna14]

You have fun with that.

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm sure I will. Almost as much fun as I'm having with this stoopid SSR. Grrrrrrrrrrrr...

[Genna14]

Death To The Ssr!!!

[NurseBettyLu]

Yes.

[Genna14]

My fear of you and weapons is gone.

[NurseBettyLu]

What about my breath? All fear my breath.

[Genna14]

That I do fear. Your breath could kill flies and small dogs.

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm a poster child for TicTacs.

[Genna14]

Just keep your mouth closed.

[NurseBettyLu]

Don't count on it.

[pamcharlie]

Hey I hope everyone is fine , i had a busy morning and a thunderstorm too my little darlings loved the thunderstorm in 2nd tuesday preschool church

[NurseBettyLu]

Busy day today, storm preparations in case Ike changes course. Somebody dumped a mama cat and three kittens in my yard last night, they were on my steps this morning when I came home from w**k. Mama cat is solid black, and ghostly thin. She needs some building up. One of the kittens is solid black like mama, and the other two are black with white markings. One of them has a little white spot on the end of his tail, and one has a perfect 'stache and goatee on her white face. Pics when I can get them tame enough. Not happy at all with whoever dumped them, I've always thought that the coldest depths of hell are reserved for people who abandon kittens. Grr.

[jesus loves me]

Poor darlings. when i lived with my sister, many of her 17 cats were strays and 8 of her 9 dogs. 2 dogs had been abused. i'm glad you took these kitties in. look forward to pics.

[NurseBettyLu]

Mama is wild as a March hare, but the babies tolerate being handled pretty well. And mama doesn't seem to mind. But she's so thin! It's like she's given every calorie she can get to the babies. They're fat as partridges. I'm giving her Iams kitten food, and she's eating it like she's never eaten before. I'd say the babies are about six weeks old. I plan to get her fixed as soon as she weans the babies, assuming I can catch her. I'll see if my vet will loan me a trap if she doesn't settle down. Oh, and KittyBoy is a shelter pet. People would be real interested in adopting him until they found out he was deaf. Ooh, I hate people sometimes.

Ooh, I hate people sometimes. yes, people are 'hateable' at times. mamma kitty may tame yet. glad babies are fat - mamma's next. i would adopt a deaf cat. it's always good to know people like you. let us know how they are. ike now looks like it's going even farther south - good for your new family.

[NurseBettyLu]

I am reminded of a cartoon I saw in the magazine section of the Sunday paper a couple weeks ago. This lady is standing in front of the judge, caption: "Your Honor, I'd like a restraining order against everybody..."

[jesus loves me]

Lol! love it. 'night, beth.

[NurseBettyLu]

I had a great night's sleep last night. That is, until the cockroach the length of my thumb crawled across my arm. That was, btw, the last thing that bug ever did...

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I am by no means a lover of bugs, but I don't generally kill them. It has to be a particularly extraordinary circumstance to get me to kill a bug.

Ewwwwww :eek:

If a big nasty cockroach crawling on your arm isn't extraordinary corcumstances I hate to think what is!

[pamcharlie]

Ewwwwww :eek:

Cockroaches are gross and i can't stand them , squash them , spray them , yucky cockroaches . gross

Did anyone hear about the experiment that people think will bring the world to an end i am still here and nothing has happened

[Genna14]

The world will end when God says so. Until then, we're stuck here. Darnit.

[NurseBettyLu]

It's raining.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I might kill it then. But chances are probably not. But don't feel obligated to think of what could be worse than that. It won't be pretty.

[jesus loves me]

The world will end when God says so. Until then, we're stuck here. Darnit. my sentiments exactly, genna.

[NurseBettyLu]

Beep-beep, beep-beep. Cell phone going dead.

[jesus loves me]

Where is everyone?

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Spelunking, perhaps?

You want a second opinion on that? Especially since you spelled behavior wrong? :P :D


Congrats on the new job.

[sandie]

Genna spelled behaviour beautifully. :D Now, if she can behave beautifully, for a Loon, that is....

Genna: Congratulations. What's the job?

I spoke to a college today, and told them that their pay offer wasn't adequate. We'll see what happens next.

[Genna14]

Suck it dweeb. I've just been hanging around too many Brits/Aussies lately.

And thanks, I can't wait to get started. I need some serious cash for contacts, glasses, and a NEW BRA. Mine broke. :(

I'd love to, but my straw went on strike. Brits and Aussies are nice people to hang around.

BZZZZZZZZZZZZ*droolsnortg rindteethfartrollover*ZZZ ZZZZZZZ...

This isn't the Loon thread Beth! :eek:

Admin?

She might mean administration.

[NurseBettyLu]

This isn't the Loon thread Beth! :eek:

But the loon thread is right up there. See? Close enough for me! *sneezes, wipes nose on sleeve*

[pamcharlie]

I am away for two days and i have just come back and i miss out on the crazy goings on here , where is everyone at the moment , since hurricane ike is about to land

[NurseBettyLu]

Here I am, wasting time on the computer and having a brown beer. Happy is me.

[Genna14]

Beautifully for a Brit or Aussie, not a wacky American. :D

What do you mean by...wacky?



I'd love to, but my straw went on strike. Brits and Aussies are nice people to hang around.

Your straw went on strike...never heard that one before.



She might mean administration.

Well I'll be cleaning buildings, just cleaning. Nothing special.

I was calling myself wacky, not you, so don't worry about it. Consider yourself lucky, a striking straw is not a good thing. Cleaning can be a very tedious job, that's for sure.

[jesus loves me]

I am away for two days and i have just come back and i miss out on the crazy goings on here , where is everyone at the moment , since hurricane ike is about to land was with my friend. i'm getting ready for bed. it's going to rain here for days. ike may send me rain too. raining already.

[jesus loves me]

No got boat. Want some floaties? do they come in 'gomer' orange? my friend couldn't go to work - her boss couldn't open the store as the parking lot is under water.

[NurseBettyLu]

What other color floaties would I have? Do be safe, stay out of the nasties. My boss just called, my little patient is out with his mom and big brother and will be back home in about an hour. So I wait.
