Loons storm the Music Builds Tour

[sandie]

Fair enough, I think. :P

[Genna14]

I'm being forced to suffer through Dancing With The Stars.

[sandie]

I like the Australian version. It's on Sunday nights. Do you have Battle of the Choirs over there? We had the first season recently.

[Genna14]

Never heard of it I hate those kinds of shows. I much rather watch America Idol, and thats about it.

[sandie]

I don't watch Australian Idol.

[ZippyApplePants]

I don't watch Australian Idol.

Me either. :D I also don't watch the American version. I watched and voted on DWTS when Helio Castroneves won, but haven't watched since.


Oh, Good Morning sandie! :D

[NurseBettyLu]

Further updates on my day: Went to Food World to buy cheap drinks, then got fried chicken at Church's for supper. No wonder I'm tired.

Pace yourself Beth, pace yourself.

[NurseBettyLu]

I know, I know. All this excitement isn't good for someone my age.

[sandie]

We can see that. :D I'm also living an exciting life. Washing floors and dishes. I don't know how I cope.

Hi Wendy. How are you?

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Evening, Loons. I'm hot and tired. Almost delirious. :P

[ZippyApplePants]

I know, I know. All this excitement isn't good for someone my age.

What kind of "cheap drinks" did you get?

We can see that. :D I'm also living an exciting life. Washing floors and dishes. I don't know how I cope.

Hi Wendy. How are you?

I'm good. I do enough cleaning at work, the last thing I feel like doing is coming home and cleaning.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I'm good. I do enough cleaning at work, the last thing I feel like doing is coming home and cleaning.
I understand. I clean houses every once in a while, and if I cleaned my house as well as I clean other people's houses, my house would be immaculate.

[Genna14]

And its no, nay, never.....
No nay never no more!
Will I plaaaaay the wild rover
No never, no more.

[sandie]

What's the song, Genna?

Wendy: I don't clean at work. I can barely bother to clean here. I'm hoping that the Housecleaning Fairy will come, but she must be elsewhere. :P

[ZippyApplePants]

I understand. I clean houses every once in a while, and if I cleaned my house as well as I clean other people's houses, my house would be immaculate.

If I got paid to clean house like I do at work, it might help! :)

And its no, nay, never.....
No nay never no more!
Will I plaaaaay the wild rover
No never, no more.

Uh, okay. :confused:

[Genna14]

What's the song, Genna?


"Wild Rover" as performed by The High Kings.


Uh, okay. :confused:

Look here. Its a really fun song!

Hmmm
It just gets stuck in your head for like...ever.

[ZippyApplePants]

It just gets stuck in your head for like...ever.

I've got enough stuff stuck in my head!

[sandie]

Have you? :P

I thought it sounded familiar. Now it's stuck in my head, too.

[Genna14]

I've got enough stuff stuck in my head!

It could be worse, I could have let you listen to "The Auld Triangle". Thats my least fave song on The High Kings cd.


Have you? :P

I thought it sounded familiar. Now it's stuck in my head, too.

But its a good song! :P

I'm not really sure what "auld" means. It could be worse, I could have said........"Ar Éireann Ní Neosainn Cé Hí"

It means "old."

[ZippyApplePants]

It means "old."

No, it means "good health."

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

No, it means "good health."
I wasn't talking about "Gesundheit."

[ZippyApplePants]

I wasn't talking about "Gesundheit."

Well for the love of orange you posted right after I said it!

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Actually, we posted at the same time. Or nearly the same time. You just beat me to it slightly. I was referring to "auld."

Oh, okay.

[sandie]

Auld Lang Syne. Think I spelled it correctly.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Speaking of meanings, I'd like to know the meaning of everything we're singing in choir. It's in Latin, and we don't ever get a translation. We just get music put in front of our faces, and we're supposed to sing it. We could be saying something awful, and I wouldn't know. :P

It doesn't matter if the audience cannot understand it either. :D

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Auld Lang Syne. Think I spelled it correctly.
Yes, you did. It means "old long time."

Does anyone here, other than me, know all the words to that song? The first verse, anyway.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

It doesn't matter if the audience cannot understand it either. :D
True. :D

[sandie]

Yes, I do, but I copied them from Wikipedia, anyway. :P

English translation

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne ?

CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,

we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,

And the International Phonetic Alphabet version (IPA) for good measure. :D

Lol I know what you mean. I listen to Josh Groban and he sings in Italian a lot sometimes in Latin too, I do believe. The worst is Celtic music. A few of the songs in Gaelic to translate to English, which is nice

Nah. It's a useful tool for language teaching and learning. I like the 'ng' symbol. :P

That's just a small bit of what we're singing. And to be honest, I'm not even sure what language that is. :P Most of it is Latin, but there are parts, like this one, that I'm not so sure about. :P

[rossid]

Good morning.

Seems like Latin.

:D

[Genna14]

Nah. It's a useful tool for language teaching and learning. I like the 'ng' symbol. :P
I tried using it to learn Gaelic and the best thing I found was an internet tutorial.

[rossid]

Oh we went to my company's used office furniture sale. For ten bucks got a table and 13" Panasonic color tv. :D

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Good morning.

Seems like Latin.

:D
It probably is. I just don't know Latin very well. :D

[sandie]

I tried using it to learn Gaelic and the best thing I found was an internet tutorial.

It takes time to learn the IPA sounds, and then it can be used to learn any language. Many Chinese students, for example, have learnt English sounds with the IPA.

Emily: Probably Latin. Or pig Latin. :P

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Ig-pay atin-lay. :D

[sandie]

You're making sense, for a change. :D

I put myself on a dating internet site last night. Took my 1 1/2 hours to try to describe myself! Got a wink from a nice sounding 42 year old man from North Carolina. How are we going to date? :rolleyes: The 38 year old widower from NSW looks nice too, a doctor. I'm 53. Maybe I should just date younger men. The older ones often seem boring. :P

I have no idea how it works. Yeah.......

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Hey, that seems to be the trend with some of my friends. One of my female friends just married a guy who is 13 months younger than her, and another one is dating a guy who's 20 months younger than her.

[sandie]

I'd have thought most men are looking for a younger woman, and probably children. It is flattering... but a bit bizarre.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Oh, and I have a very good friend who has liked my brother for years and she's older than he is, but not by much. About three months, I think. And my mom's brother's wife is nearly two years older than he is.

It is rather bizarre. I don't know that I could ever go for a younger guy. But I won't say never, otherwise it may come back to bite me one day. :D

[sandie]

I'm talking about 10 to 15 years younger than me. :eek: My ex-husband was 20 mths younger than me. I'm cool with that gap, even more.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Yeah. Most of the cases I know are people my age. And if you get that much younger than me, then you'd literally be robbing the cradle. :P

[sandie]

LOL. No, they have to be out of diapers. :P

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I would hope so. ;)

[Genna14]

That might work for you but men younger than me are generally quite immature. I'd love an older man. I mean not too much older, maybe mid-late thirties. I mean, I AM only 24. My ed was a year and a half younger than me.


Hey, that seems to be the trend with some of my friends. One of my female friends just married a guy who is 13 months younger than her, and another one is dating a guy who's 20 months younger than her.

Yeah I am pretty sure I couldn'tdo it! lol. Not again, I know how the younger ones are.


Hey did I happen to mention I went to casting call today? Transformers 2 is going to be filmed here, well part of it is. I might get to be in Transformers!!! :eek: :D :D :D :D

[sandie]

That sounds exciting, Genna. :)

Yes, some men in their twenties can be immature. Then there are the ones who never grow up. :P

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

And then you have some like my younger brother who seem to be mature beyond their years in so many ways, and then you get to know them, and they're hovering somewhere around the age of six. :rolleyes: :P

[sandie]

LOL. I'd love to know what he thinks of you. :P

[ZippyApplePants]

That sounds exciting, Genna. :)

The ones that never grow up are often known as Loon Kings.

So true!

Sandra:

1. Hello

2. I have my own sub-forum: http://www.thirdday.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=717

3. Internet dating - really?

4. Angelo was supposed to be in from the homecoming dance at 12:30 am. Must have fallen asleep at his friend's but I'm upset. (Homecome is an annual football game and dance where folks from prior years "come home" to their high schools.)

5. How was church?

NOTE: Numbered in order of importance.

[Martyred]

Good morning loons.

only loons would be up this early- 6:45 here on the Eastern Coast of the US

how is everyone?

[sandie]

Hi D.

You have a Third Day show coming up. Lucky you.

Yep, I'm checking out the internet dating scene - one Christian site and one general site. I'll add Boise Idaho to North Carolina. Also the Dominican Republic, Western Australia, Queensland, and my own state of NSW. So many dates, so little time. Seriously, why would someone in another state or country respond to my ad?

Christian men in their fifties are very thin on the ground in most churches.

Church was good, as always. I love my church's services. Two of our newer members prayed aloud for the first time - our ex-prostitute, and an ex-alcoholic, John. Both growing in Christ rapidly. :) We also have a guy who was sleeping on the church cottage verandah 3 weeks ago. Jimmy's an alcoholic, off the grog for 3 weeks now, and learning about Christianity mainly from John, while staying dry. It's exciting to see the welfare work bringing people into the kingdom.

[sandie]

D: They stop out more and more as they get older. A message would have been nice, of course.

[Genna14]

That sounds exciting, Genna. :)

Yes, some men in their twenties can be immature. Then there are the ones who never grow up. :P
Yeah well. I want an older man! I do know one guy who's 22 and is fairly mature. He's pretty professional most of the time, but sometimes *shakes head*

[rossid]

I know Sandra. He did text but Becky's phone was on vibrate. No answer to your text? You should've come home. I did get to meet the mother and verify the computer is in the living room. And he did not stay with the homecoming date but his friend that is three blocks away. I drove by three times and finally stopped by an hour ago. He was fine with it...

[sandie]

Fair enough. Angelo needs to ring rather than text and speak to you or Becky. Thanks for explaining homecoming dances, too, as we don't have them in Oz.

[Genna14]

I know Sandra. He did text but Becky's phone was on vibrate. No answer to your text? You should've come home. I did get to meet the mother and verify the computer is in the living room. And he did not stay with the homecoming date but his friend that is three blocks away. I drove by three times and finally stopped by an hour ago. He was fine with it...
And now the million dollar question, should he be punished even though he texted?

[rossid]

Well we had a LONG talk. He is back on the PC. I've learned more about the "female extraterrestrial" things with his girlfriend. It has been two weeks since we met her and I can't believe there is a girlfriend. Plus he understands that Sunday nite or Wednesday nite are mandatory church attendance. That gives him a lot more meet.

[Genna14]

Sometimes its better to let it slide once in a while. Pick your battles.

[rossid]

Oh you posted at the same time as me. Yes I think I've chilled per my post.

[NurseBettyLu]

Happy Sunday, all. Creepy quiet around here.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

LOL. I'd love to know what he thinks of you. :P
Probably something along the same lines. :D

Guten Abend, Loons. :cool:

[ZippyApplePants]

Probably something along the same lines. :D

Guten Abend, Loons. :cool:

Did you just Good Evening or Good Afternoon?

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Good evening.

How are you, Wendy?

[ZippyApplePants]

Good evening.

How are you, Wendy?

I'm good. I though it was "Evening", but "Abend" sounds like it could mean afternoon.

[Genna14]

I'm going to bed. Its not even 7 pm yet.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Good night, Genna. You obviously need sleep or you don't feel good if you're going to bed that early. I can identify. I didn't sleep much last night.

[Genna14]

I'm in serious pain in my neck and back and shoulder. I'm going to take a muscle relaxer.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

You do that. I hope you feel better.

[NurseBettyLu]

Had tv dinners for supper. Am truly pathetic.

[ZippyApplePants]

Had tv dinners for supper. Am truly pathetic.

Of course you're pathetic, you are a Loon!

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Yep, pretty much. :D

[NurseBettyLu]

Works for me.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

How are you, Beth?

[ZippyApplePants]

Works for me.

Works for us too.

[NurseBettyLu]

How are you, Beth?

I'm good. Bout to be over my cold. I've had a mild and unspecified case of the glums for the past few days, but seems to be lifting. It's Sunday night so I don't want to go to w**k. And KittyBoy ate a bee today, and his upper lip is all swollen up. That's how it is here.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Bee eating and swollen lips. Sounds down right exciting.

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm going to go piddle now. How's that for exciting?

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I just did that myself.

[ZippyApplePants]

I'm going to go piddle now. How's that for exciting?

Correction:

If piddle means what I think it means, that's way more than I needed to know.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

It does. And, yes, it was.

Okay, I'm out. The morning and school comes early tomorrow.

Guten Nacht!

[ZippyApplePants]

Beth! :eek: Enough! :D


Interesting talk on marriage at the local college tonite.

More interesting than empty bladders I'd imagine.

[sandie]

It's only the Loon kings who are pathetic. The rest of us are wonderful human beings. :P

[rossid]

Buon giorno!!! :D

This morning stinks. Is it Monday? :eek:

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

There must be a Loon king lurking....

[rossid]

Oh the 'stinky' part - I get it... ;)

[Greyshades]

I thought there was no current Loon King.

Lurking still sounds so "hiding in the shadow-y" to me.

Que the Pink Panther music!

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

That's because it is "hiding in the shadow-y."

*attempts to play Pink Panther music on the piano*

[1inamillion]

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

'Ello, Beka! :cool:

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Sorry I left. I had to get to class. I didn't realize what time it was when I said hello.

[rossid]

Hello. :P

[sandie]

Hello, D. It's actually Tuesday, not Monday, just in case you'd like to know.

[sandie]

The latest progress on the Internet dating... London, Queensland and Tasmania. A bloke in Sydney would be nice, unless they're going to send me the cabfare. :P

[Genna14]

I am FREEZING! Why do they keep it so freakin cold in here!?

[sandie]

You need to get out of the freezer!

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Yeah, go outside. It's warm here, and I figure that if it it's warm here, it's even warmer there.

[sandie]

It's almost warm here.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Congratulations. :cool: So we'll be warm together for a very brief period of time and then it'll be our turn to be cold. :D

[sandie]

Good response. Of course, it may only be today. :D

My Kiwi boss is having trouble adapting to the sudden hot day, then back to Spring weather. I'm guessing that Barcelona in Spain was a little warmer. :P

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

What else would you expect? I always have good responses. ;)

Fall is technically here, but it still feels like summer. I think it's supposed to cool off a bit tomorrow. We'll see.

[ZippyApplePants]

Hi all, Fall is officially here as the leaves are a beautiful gold color. We're still pretty warm during the day too, but that can change in a hurry.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Some of the leaves around here have changed, but most are still green. And that's the way it usually goes around here. It's blazing hot, and then all of a sudden the temperature falls very rapidly at it's time to get out the coats.

We tend to keep the coats handy, it can snow anytime of the year around here.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I don't know how I would feel about it snowing in July. :D

[NurseBettyLu]

Hello, loons! Just getting up, fine cuppa joe, open jar of peanut butter, and I DON'T HAVE TO W**K TONIGHT!!!!! If it gets any better than that, I don't want to know about it.

[NurseBettyLu]

*does a little happy dance*

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Why would you not want to know about something better?

[ZippyApplePants]

I don't know how I would feel about it snowing in July. :D

If it snowed in July where you live, you'd probably be very confused! :D

[NurseBettyLu]

Why would you not want to know about something better?

The shock of it might be more than I can stand. At my age you have to be careful.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

If it snowed in July where you live, you'd probably be very confused! :D
At the very least. :D
The shock of it might be more than I can stand. At my age you have to be careful.
I hadn't thought of that.

[NurseBettyLu]

Oh, hey, I'm actually cooking tonight! Chicken and dumplings. Makes plenty, come on over.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I attempted that for the first time a little while ago. Turned out pretty good.

I'll be right over. I'm starving.

[NurseBettyLu]

Supper was rediculously easy, and sooooo good! Trying to recall if I've ever posted the recipe. I don't do complicated. I tell people that if you are what you eat, I'm fast, cheap and easy.:eek:

[sandie]

Good line, Beth. I'd be fast, cheap, tasty, with leftovers for tomorrow. :P

[rossid]

Well got my email at work below 200. Now have to be OOO three straight days. So on Friday my head will be held under water.

You kids have a great day. God bless you all! :D

OOO = Out Of Office

Good morning, all you silly people!!

[NurseBettyLu]

Good morning! Hideously busy day, may not be back till tomorrow. Have a fine loony day, don't do anything I wouldn't do.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

That doesn't include much.

[sandie]

Hi. Dropping in, but going to catch a train soon.

[Greyshades]

I seriously tried to catch you...

[Genna14]

Angel is sitting on the floor in front of me just staring at me. Wonder what she wants. Possibly my bowl of potato and ham casserole.

[TheBus36(Retired)]

Well, anytime I want to puke, I can just come in here and look around.

[rossid]

Hey warn me first and I'll stay out until you're gone! :P

I've been swamped with work. How are you two kids? ;)

[ZippyApplePants]

Good morning! Hideously busy day, may not be back till tomorrow. Have a fine loony day, don't do anything I wouldn't do.

Well just take the fun out of it Beth.

That doesn't include much.

Very true.

Hi. Dropping in, but going to catch a train soon.

Must be a light train. :D

I seriously tried to catch you...

You have to be quick around here.

Well, anytime I want to puke, I can just come in here and look around.

Get rid of the mirrors then. On second thought, if it keeps you out we should keep them.

[NurseBettyLu]

Finally, internet access at w**k! My patient and his mom moved to da big city, to this massive apartment complex, and I'm currently borrowing somebody's wireless. Prolly won't stay long, there's serious unpacking to be done.

[rossid]

If you would like pix of Angelo's homecoming let me know. This is Becky and myself but his data is invisible. No she is quite cute.

Drat the file is too big!! 400kb. Now 106. Still trying...

76, okay here it is, but don't you always want to get back to 100?

If you would like me to email you more of this stuff send me a PM.

If you would like pix of Angelo's homecoming let me know. This is Becky and myself but his data is invisible. No she is quite cute.

Drat the file is too big!! 400kb. Now 106. Still trying...

76, okay here it is, but don't you always want to get back to 100?

If you would like me to email you more of this stuff send me a PM.

D, don't you ever feed Angelo? That boy is skinny. :eek:

[NurseBettyLu]

Afternoon, loons. Greetings O Wheeled One. Anything interesting going on? Or is everybody stuck in hohumville with me?

[Jason]

Afternoon, loons. Greetings O Wheeled One. Anything interesting going on? Or is everybody stuck in hohumville with me?

Well, I'm A ROCKSTAR and I do have what it takes.

[rossid]

Jason, I think you and I can call people skinny becase we AIN'T skinny. :P

All of that MD(Mountain Dew) keeps his metabolism high. :eek:

[Jason]

Jason, I think you and I can call people skinny becase we AIN'T skinny. :P

All of that MD(Mountain Dew) keeps his metabolism high. :eek:

I was skinny until I was 25.

[Genna14]

Im fat fat fat and I make fun of it, so I generally don't care if people make fun of my fat.

[NurseBettyLu]

You're not fat. You're plump. I'm fat.

[Beachcomber]

You're not fat. You're plump. I'm fat.

NO,NO,NO I"M PHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!;)

[rossid]

About the same with me J.

I graduated Iowa at 125 pounds. Went to Italy for five weeks that summer. Put on ten pounds and guess what happened? Yup, driving back from Italy, unbeknownst to me my back was saying YOW!!! The ER in Iowa City diagnosed back spasms which was no surprise since I bumped my weight up 10%.

Buon giorno!!

Say good morning Sofia.

In a petite voice, "good morning".

[Light Hearted]

NO,NO,NO I"M PHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!;)
And you're married to Mt Rushmore! :eek:

[sandie]

Sad, but true. :P

Good morning Sofia. Or, good middle of the night and why am I awake? :rolleyes:

[Greyshades]

1410

Oh, sorry, wrong thread...

:D

[Tony Trout]

1410

Oh, sorry, wrong thread...

:D



ROTFLMBO! Howdy-doody, Sean!

GOOD AFTERNOON, LOONS!!!!

[sandie]

LOL. :D Yes, it feels a bit like that at this time of the morning. Actually, 1410could almost be the time! How R U, Sean and Tony?

I've accepted a job and went to an induction yesterday, which is probably why my mind is active. A very computerised private college. I'll learn how to use an interactive whiteboard next week. Am hoping it can provide answers to questions and mark essays for me. :P

[Genna14]

You're not fat. You're plump. I'm fat.
I'm obese, according to medical standards.

[sandie]

Most of us need to lose weight. I'm going for an early morning walk soon. Going up to 35 degrees today, still in early Spring. :eek:

I went for my Induction at the only college that offered me a job. Looks like I'll get the extra hours I want to increase my income - 7 1/2 hours per week preparing one student for the International English Language Testing Scheme. (IELTS Test) :) I've wanted to teach this course, and if I ever want to be an IELTS Examiner, I'll be able to apply.

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm obese, according to medical standards.

I'm obeser. Is that a word? Oh, well, it is now. Hi Sandra. Anybody else here?

[sandie]

All the important ones are. :D I've been losing weight, but have now stopped while stressed about my job situation. It appears that the Lord has answered my prayer.

[NurseBettyLu]

Answered prayer good thing. Things have calmed down somewhat at my job. New boss lady is now aware she can't push me around and pretty much leaves me alone. But Peter and his mom have moved out to midtown, half an hour from my house. Gas tank no like. But on the good side, I'm able to get online out there, I'm shamelessly stealing somebody's wireless.

[Genna14]

I'm obeser. Is that a word? Oh, well, it is now. Hi Sandra. Anybody else here?
Anything is a word if we say it is.

[sandie]

LOL. Pity about the travelling.

Do you have a new boss now? When did this happen?

[NurseBettyLu]

A few months ago. She's the one I was about to quit over. I wasn't the only one either. I guess that letter I wrote to the regional office about her helped.

[sandie]

OK. So, she's on her best behaviour. It was good that you stood up for yourself, then.

[ZippyApplePants]

1410

Oh, sorry, wrong thread...

:D

I'll say it is the wrong thread. Loons aren't supposed to be able to count that high. :P :D

[sandie]

I do. :P Sean uses his fingers and toes for counting.

[ZippyApplePants]

I do. :P Sean uses his fingers and toes for counting.

Well aren't you special? :P What is he, an octopus? :eek:

[sandie]

That was the idea. :P And, yes, I am. :D

[TheBus36(Retired)]

RRRRRAAAAALLLLPPPPPHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rossid]

I am 5-8 and obese would be 197 pounds or 89.5 kilos.

http://www.annecollins.com/weight-loss/obesity-chart.htm

I'm five or ten past that...

[Greyshades]

RRRRRAAAAALLLLPPPPPHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GGGGEEEEOOOOORRRRRGGGGEEE !!!!!!!!!!!

[Genna14]

I'll say it is the wrong thread. Loons aren't supposed to be able to count that high. :P :D
He didn't count that high, he's just typing random numbers.

[rossid]

Anyone want a 16 y.o.?

[NurseBettyLu]

No, thanks.

[ZippyApplePants]

GGGGEEEEOOOOORRRRRGGGGEEE !!!!!!!!!!!

WWWWWWIIIIIIILLLLLLLMMMMA AAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He didn't count that high, he's just typing random numbers.

I know that! I was kidding!

[NurseBettyLu]

Sleepy loon here.

[NurseBettyLu]

Alone again! I'm a loon alone. I'm a lone aloon. I need a nap.

[Greyshades]

I never seem to get anything done when I'm sleeping.

[rossid]

Me neither. Well I never get anything done when I'm awake either. :P

[Light Hearted]

RRRRRAAAAALLLLPPPPPHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Save your breath Robbie, they simply will NEVER get what it means to be a true blue Loon. :rolleyes:

[Tony Trout]

LOONS!!!!!


How is everyone?

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm fine. Hey, we made Robbie puke! Our work here is done.

[Light Hearted]

I'm fine. Hey, we made Robbie puke! Our work here is done.
Good, can you leave now then?

[NurseBettyLu]

Well, I guess so, but I think not. Being nauseating is too much fun.

[Light Hearted]

Well, I guess so, but I think not. Being nauseating is too much fun.
I wouldn't know. I'm too cool for school. ;)

[Genna14]

I know that! I was kidding!

No you weren't. You're just d-u-m DUMB!









:P

[NurseBettyLu]

Who's here? Nobody? Good. A titch crabby tonight.

[BeGlorifiedInMe]

Well, I'm eating crab dip at the moment. Want some?

[NurseBettyLu]

Think it'll help? I ate too much supper. I suspect I need to be burped.

[BeGlorifiedInMe]

Okay then, I have lot's of experience with nieces and nephews. Lay on your tummy, and I'll pat your back for you!

[NurseBettyLu]

And now a little chamomile tea and a lie-down. No worky tonight.

[Genna14]

Think it'll help? I ate too much supper. I suspect I need to be burped.
I ate lots and lots to night. Salad buffet baby!!!

[ZippyApplePants]

No you weren't. You're just d-u-m DUMB!









:P

SHUT YOUR FLIPPIN' TRAP!

[Genna14]

SHUT YOUR FLIPPIN' TRAP!






..........

COME ON OVER AND MAKE ME LOOSER!!!!!!!

[rossid]

Um, hello, is it safe?

[Beachcomber]

Um, hello, is it safe?

This is a loon thread,it's NOT supposed to be SAFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:roll eyes:

[rossid]

I know. And no my son never came home last nite.

[Jason]

..........

COME ON OVER AND MAKE ME LOOSER!!!!!!!

Why? Are you too tight?

[HotWireD]

Why? Are you too tight?

Vocab' Police at it again :P

[Jason]

Vocab' Police at it again :P

People using loose instead of lose is my number one pet peeve.

[BeGlorifiedInMe]

Many years ago, I visited in the wonderful state of Pennsylvania. Some of the people in that state have the very strange habit of mixing up leave and let. My hostess told me to "let it on the table", which, when I was 19 years old, confused the daylights out of me. Then she wanted me to "leave me off the elevator" when she was already on it. Very strange indeed! I was told that this was "Pennsylvania Dutch" speech! Whatever!

[Genna14]

I was on MUSCLE RELAXERS. :rolleyes:

[rossid]

Kewl!!! :D

[NurseBettyLu]

Happy Saturday, loons! Hi, D.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Happy Saturday! :cool:

[NurseBettyLu]

Wow, it's crowded for a Saturday. H'lo, Emily. Got nothing done today and it's all your fault.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I'd like to see you prove that one.

[NurseBettyLu]

Got sucked into Twilight. No wash, no clean, no cook. But I did come close to finishing the whole book today. Isn't the birth of an obsession a beautiful thing?

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

Oh! Okay. Maybe that was my fault. ;)

It is a beautiful thing. A marvelously beautiful thing. :cool:

[NurseBettyLu]

Carryout for supper tonight. Got a couple of chapters to go.

[ZippyApplePants]

..........

COME ON OVER AND MAKE ME LOOSER!!!!!!!

I would Genna, but I don't approve of loose women.

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

And they are great chapters.

[NurseBettyLu]

Too true, they are. Back wee hours if I can get on the wireless at w**k.

[rossid]

It was crowded. Wireless is kewl.

[Genna14]

Kewl!!! :D

I am the epitomy of cool.

I got a nice massage tonight from the senator's wife who wants to be a massage therapist when her kids are older. She is GOOD!


I would Genna, but I don't approve of loose women.

:rolleyes:

As I mentioned above, I was on muscle relaxers, so lay off. :(

[NurseBettyLu]

But it's fun to mske fun of stoned people.

[sandie]

Of course it is. :P

Hi all. We had 6 hours without electricity on Friday, and 7 today. The workers were checking telegraph poles in my area and digging holes. On Friday night I had one candle to see by, had a cold leftover dinner and couldn't make coffee, see the TV, play music or read etc. :eek: I went to bed, and got up when it came back on.

[NurseBettyLu]

Just like magic, huh? I'm once again at w**k, it's one in the morning, and I'm shamelessly stealing the neighbor's wireless. And it's faster than my DSL.

[NurseBettyLu]

I'm alone on the boards! Just me and the spider bots. Help...

[rossid]

Cindy McCain wants to be a massage therapist? :P

Any power yet?

[Genna14]

LOL! If I knew Cindy and John McCain, I'd have said so. Plus, I don't live up there in Phoenix, so he is not my senator. I was talking about Senator Bee and his wife, Grace.

If power getting into the race for free last night, then yeah, I got the power. :P

[Jason]

McCain represents the entire state, Genna. Only representatives are chosen by district.

[Genna14]

Well I didn't know that because Senator Bee only represents a certain district. That district includes most of Tucson, Wilcox, Sierra Vista and some other places.

Mom told me this morning at breakfast that McCain does rep. us too. I didn't know, I know very little of politics.

Bee is a state senator, only dealing with issues in Arizona. McCain is a U.S. Senator representing all of Arizona.

[rossid]

THAT was a LONG nap. :P

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

I'm tired, Loons. Very tired.

[NurseBettyLu]

Tired too. May go back to bed.

[rossid]

Need more dMD to teach the kids tonite. A 15 minute lesson - why complain?

:D

[Genna14]

I know but who cares....because......... ................

Very true!

Had to rub it in you were napping while I was at work didn't you? :P :D

Because that's what Loons do best!

I know but who cares....because......... ................


TONY STEWART WON THE RACE AT TALLADEGA TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know, I think I heard you yelling all the way up here!

[Jason]

I know but who cares...


Gee, thanks.

[Genna14]

I know, I think I heard you yelling all the way up here!

I was on the phone with my best friend when it happened. She heard me scream. Hehe She didn't know I could scream like that. :D

[1inamillion]

hi loons

[NurseBettyLu]

Happy Sunday night, loons!

[Genna14]

hi loons

HI! Guess what, Tony won today! :D

Happy Sunday night, loons!

Happy? Understatement of the season...

[NurseBettyLu]

And why are we so happy, dear? (as if I dare ask...)

[BeGlorifiedInMe]

You love looking for trouble, don't you?!?!

[Genna14]

And why are we so happy, dear? (as if I dare ask...)

Happy? I'm not happy, I'm FREAKIN THRILLED. :D :D :D


You love looking for trouble, don't you?!?!

Tony won today! :D

She's not looking for trouble. I'll announce it anywhere I get a chance. He broke a 43 race winless streak and won at a track where's he's made 20 starts and finished 2nd place 6 times. Yeah, I'm excited!

[NurseBettyLu]

You love looking for trouble, don't you?!?!

It's what I do best. Tony won at Talladega, by the way.

[BeGlorifiedInMe]

I didn't know that. By the way, who the blazes is Tony Stewart and where is Talladega?

[NurseBettyLu]

I didn't know that. By the way, who the blazes is Tony Stewart and where is Talladega?

Boyoboy, talk about looking for trouble...

[BeGlorifiedInMe]

Actually, I know the answer to both. But YES, I do like stirring things up, especially with someone as "volitile" as Genna! She's fun to pick on!

[NurseBettyLu]

That she is. But only in love, right? Oh, sorry, this is the loon thread, I forgot.
