  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 06-01-04 AT 05:56PM (CST)[/font][br][br]Keep it up, Marc. This is beginning to remind me of football. Quarterbacks (like Yours Truly) just get behind a blocker and follow him to the end zone. The more…
  • Okay, I won't... x;-) Actually, we could never maneuver fast enough to get 'em. They can turn on a dime, unlike a jeep, and we were so afraid of rolling the jeep that we took it carefully. Just herded 'em a little bit. x;-)
  • When I was at Camp Bullis outside San Antonio we used to see live armadillos all the time at night. We'd chase 'em down with our jeeps. What fun! x:-)
  • Congrats, Leslie! So your son went to law school at UC Berkeley, huh? Hmmm... Is he a member of the ACLU and the Lawyer's Guild yet? x;-)
  • Porch light's on, Rockie. Please bring some Milo's Sweet Tea and biscuits with you? x;-) I'll meet you at the airport. x:-)
  • Well, just stay away from Oregon, guys... we're about 160 miles south of Seattle and our climate is much more favorable. However, we already have too many Californians (but deep-Southerners are welcome if they're female, pretty, single and have th…
  • New York City, but the WHEN is more important: New York City, circa 1883. x:-)
  • Cinderella is a Washingtonian posing as an Oregonian and yes, Oregonian is a real word - unlike Massachusettesian. x;-)
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 05-18-04 AT 03:08PM (CST)[/font][br][br]Uh..., Ray, it wasn't my thread. It was Paul CB's thread. Better go apologize to him for confusing him with me, he'll never forgive you. Remember, Paul is the …
  • I love Celtic music (Irish, remember?) and even enjoy going to the Highland Games and watching some dancing. But the homogenized, pasteurized, purified, generic, choreographed-for-consumption-by-the-masses Riverdance just makes me want to hurl (I c…
  • You mean there's someone out there who actually WATCHES Riverdance????? On PURPOSE????
  • Not to mention This Old House, The Woodwright's Shop, My Hero, Keeping Up Appearances, Kiss Me Kate, Globe Trekker, I could go on and on. Oh, yes - and Wishbone. x;-)
  • Uh, oh. Sharp left turn ahead! Don's hijacking the thread toward a public policy discussion of PBS!x:o
  • I stand corrected. Apparently it's Minnesota. x;-)
  • I've seen the promos for Colonial House, and have wanted to watch. I watched Frontier House a couple of years ago, but the thing I hated about that show was all the whining by the people complaining about how hard it was to live like that - DUH! …
  • I like Morris' interpretation of his doctor's advice much, much better! Sounds like words to live by. x;-)
  • I should like to remind everyone that Cinderella may POST from Oregon, but by her own admission she's really a Washingtonian. x;-) Most of us Oregonians are more tolerant of conservative viewpoints - even Limbaugh's. x;-)

  • In the dictionary under "slapstick humor" it says, "See Rad." x;-)
  • Sticks and stones, ritaanz, sticks and stones... x;-)
  • Are you poking the sleeping bear, ritaanz??? I'm surprised Don D hasn't jumped both feet first into the middle of this thread! I know you're just baiting him. x;-)
  • Boy, you really DO want to get me in trouble, don't you? x;-)
  • I would but I think such familiar behavior might be misconstrued and consequently inappropriate in a professional office environment. x;-)
  • I'll recognize National Astronomy Day if you'll recognize St. Swithins' Day. x;-)
  • I know the feeling, and I think one of the benefits of a stint in the service is the ability to pack light (and to pack sensibly). I still remember fitting all my worldly possessions into one US-issue duffel bag (all uniforms, boots, shoes, etc.) …
  • If you fair folks in sunny CA had an affordable workers' compensation system, ERs wouldn't be flocking across the border with their businesses in tow to Oregon and.... wait... that's a good thing! Never mind. x;-)
  • Oh, man, Paul! You had me hooked. I was all ready to give you a long post about why we need to hang on until June 30 and the transition of government and then I got to the last line. Boy, did I get sucked in! x:-)
  • I think the important message in this thread is the fact that Don listens to talk radio at 4 a.m.! Personally, I'm sawing logs at 4 a.m. and even if I wasn't a talk radio report on glossy floors would probably work better than a Unisom on me. I …
  • Actually, I registered as a Republican when I was 18, but changed my registration to democrat when the republicans failed to endorse the Equal Rights Amendment. Been a democrat ever since (but with more sense than most democrats). x;-)
  • Oh... yeah... forgot about that. Hmmmmm....
  • Cool, rad! Too bad there's not a high-five emoticon on this thing. One would be comin' your way! x;-)
