TWG I would like to think that Won would not feel the need to hide to protect herself. Honestly a lot of peeps have come here, things have been hashed out, and everyone has moved on.
But enough of that tell me how you made your poppers cause I have some jalapenos that need to be cooked up
Seems like no matter what time I get on - I get here at a new post... LOL good timing!
Repost:
Hey all - home again finally - well have been home a bit, but trying to catch up - you are all a chatty bunch of bitches in here!! Sheesh!
Ang got 2 tickets to the Cav's playoff game - she and Patti went, I have Tay overnight and spent the evening at Megan's - she made me dinner and dessert, and I watched Ri and Tay playing outside, didn't get home til 11 - Gave both boys a bath at Megan's and Tay was sound asleep when I got home, so now I'm relaxing... Patti is going to spend the night at Ang's - and then Ang will bring her home in the morning on her way to work...
Whats new? I'm going to try to keep up and catch up all at the same time!
Hi Sick - do I know you? LOL I'm confused at all the name changes - Can't keep up!!
Maybe I'll figure it out eventually - or by reading back.. just jumping in and chatting for a few before everyone goes to bed....
So anything new? Do we have a total of what was raised for Chris? I saw the kitties tonight they are so stinking cute - fuzzy and actually starting to open their eyes already which seems really soon to me, but they are!
i think it's more from the potential that GM is around than anything anyone here has done or said. honestly? i'm just tired of people pointing fingers and saying stuff.
that's just me.
poppers:
some bacon and onion chopped and placed in oven until crispy. watch it carefully, i burnt the first batch of onion
mix with some more green onion if you feel like it mix with some cream cheese mix with some shredded cheese if you feel like it add the bacon and onion all chopped up
stir it some. taste it.
halve the peppers, take out the seeds.
put the cream cheese stuff in the pepper halves.
place back in pan.
oven: 450, top rack. wait. yum.
have LOTS of milk. my mouth was actually on fire. maybe b/c i could resist eating the other half. i was trying to save them. it was equivalent 5 whole peppers i just ate.
Hi twg and WP - all these alphabet letters are confusing me - but at least I get you two! The kittens are so cute - they fuzzie'd right up - and they are mewing and nursing and the mommy cat is being so good - she only gets up a few times a day to eat and potty and she's back with them... So adorable! I didn't get to watch them too much cause Tay and Riley are a handful and a half when they get together! And AP/WP - you are welcome to be part of our family any time!! Megan made the best dinner tonight - just chicken and broccoli and onion and garlic and olive oil with pasta and parm. cheese sprinkled in - yummy! she had a salad and some garlic bread too. And for dessert, she made this "pie" with the refrig. sugar cookie dough, you take it out of the roll and spread it in a pie pan, then she used creme cheese and some sugar and vanilla and the juice out of one can of mandarin oranges, spread that in the bottom of the baked crust, then put in whatever fruits you want, she used banana, grapes, strawberry, kiwi and mandarin oranges, refrigerate and yummy!!
Hi I have been around on and off and dont comment too much cause then I will become legally addicted, but I really need to point something out here. SOrry that came across rather strong, but you people here have so much respect for one another and for anyone who comes on as well. I read with interest the abortion topic, did you see any mud slinging, negative words, judgmentalism.. well I looked for it as I find that topic brings out all the negativism. All I read was a respectful exchange of opinions all given in kindness. Perhaps there have been strong words or judgments given in the past, but what I have read in my on/off lurking is that you women are sincere, respectful and kind and welcoming to any person who does the same in return. I hope that FWOP dies quickly as I imagine they will, esp if they keep trying to get non- existent dirt from you delightful daisies. And really for all the anti mck stuff written on here, I have found that that forms less than one percent of the conversations. Kudos to you all. Sincerely Joyce
I tried to catch up on what I missed, but all of the name changes confused my brain. :) Well, not *all of them.
TWG- Think I will try that recipe for my hubs. He would *love it! Anything with bacon. :)
Jill- I laughed out loud at your firemen comment right when the show we were watching got serious, which had my hubs looking at me in confusion, then I had to explain, but it just wasn't the same, apparently.
My first vile act of the day was handing out flyers for parents to come to the school board meeting next week - I'm sweatty and my hair looks like I've been through a wind tunnel.
Morning vile Daisies! Welcome Joyce! I just walked into my son's room to find my dog on his bed licking his pillow. She acted like I caught her in the middle of an affair. Weird dog.
So I went to read the comments on IM'post and Disqus wouldnt let me even view them. Since I was signed into DIsqus under my MWOP name, do you think they blocked me all together? I cant even see the comments??
I was off making vile playdoh bunnies (Not to be confused with *Playboy bunnies, mind you) bricks and dinosaurs. :) Now DD is eating breakfast so I can relax. Good thing cuz Eeq is all over this morning and kind of making it uncomfortable to move around a lot.
I generally like IM but I have a hard time reading through his posts. I don't understand why anyone would get a notice to appear in court and not show up - my opinion and I'm sticking to it.
Margaret- I was reading the post and comments. I think he is really stepping in the poo with his posts and his attitude. Even when someone leaves a respectful comment/question he follows with a smart assed condecending answer. Half the time his smart ass snark doesn't even make sense.
The Silva's - I am offended that you would second-guess my identity. I am the real Sheldon Cooper, the most brilliant physicist alive. I work hard to prove string theory and disprove my colleagues' work. Reconciling quantum mechanics and general relativity is my goal.

One more thing before I go. The Today Show this morning had a segment about Craig's List and how it was supposed to have cleaned up all the sex ads but hasn't. I don't have a real problem with either (a) sex ads or (b) prostitution. I mean, I'd rather women not feel like they have to sell their bodies for money, but since some of us do, and there's a market for it, what's the real harm?

Uh....it's dangerous? For the women and the men. A good portion of the men are some weird sex addicts and a pretty fair amount of the women are drug addicts and victims of abuse. It's not like the Bunny Ranch where everyone is screened and in a controlled environment.
I have no effing clue what's going on with who said what under what name, etc. I went back to my own name, and I wish we could all just go back to chatterboxing away, but I understand this other freak show has to run its course.
Other than that, I <3 Pearl Jam, and that new song, Just Breathe, acoustic version? Lord.
Shannon -- I'm not calling *us a freak show at all. :) I was Kayi yesterday on FWOP, just in the interest of full disclosure and all, but I wish I wouldn't have poked at it. I just want it to go away.
(I noticed that many of the "supportive commenters" had names ending in 'i' so I wanted to fit in and all. :-))
SC-I love the 2nd episode from last night with the ball pit, one of my favs for sure!!! Oh, and will you please tell us if Leonard and Penny will get back together? good thing you escaped the fate of that hell hound!!
RiM- I know nothing about any of the name changes, it really confuses me, but I am easily confused at times:)
*not Julia, I am making it tonight - oh and I use ground beef or shreadded chicken instead of ground chicken - someone mentioned they had trouble finding the ground chicken - I never even bothered to look:)
I have chosen to recognize that the FWOP seems to think that they have some power but I have decided that they wont be getting any from me. That is just what I have chosen for myself. I will check once or twice a day to see if there is anything new...I mean seriously they havent had much new stuff as of yet.
Enough with the popper talk! I had *just about convinced myself that pb&j would be much, much better for lunch than poppers (of which I have no ingredients for)
I wanted to let you know that I probably won't be around much, but that has nothing to do with recent events. We leave for vacation this weekend, and I have to do my normal neurotic cleaning-before-leaving and get the four of us packed and out the door. I also don't know how often I'll be able to get online at my FIL's place, although I have to work while there, so perhaps I can check in.
Anyway, just wanted to let you know. I will check my e-mail if anything spectacular happens and you just need to share it with me. I can check e-mail from my phone, I just can't post here.
Rhys - I love poppers. Peppers won't grow well there? Did I ask you about straw bale gardening?
Megan - I didn't mean the names here, although I am lost with many of them. And I didn't mean to be impatient with anyone here, because it's been very funny. Just all the trying to figure out who the freak running FWOP and all is, you know? It's a freak, an obviously unwell freak, and what else can you do about it, you know?
Margaret -- yes to Eddie Vedder. I could listen to that Into the Wild album over and over. (and boo to all you naysayers to Into the Wild yesterday. :))
BD have a great vacation...kinda jealous right now :)
Robin we tried the straw garden....yeah until the small child in the house managed to dig through the camping stuff and found the long lighter thing and almost burned the house down.
Hi Rhys! I would gladly discuss physics with you, but alas I think we'd make people go away. Though it might be just as well. :P
The Silva's - As you know, human relationships baffle me and I therefore have no idea whether Penny and Leonard will get back together. I sincerely apologize for being unable to give you an answer. ;)
Oh, Joyce...you called us "you people" and hmmm, once you post here, you're one of us people, too. Welcome! How'd you find us?
"i meant that the need to sometimes be incognito is not as devious as you're assigning the motive to be."
I agree and never did I say the fact she used another name here (or there) was devious. Truth be told, I found what she did here to be downright cute and funny and I mean that in the best possible way. She even took the time to pick a name that fit in with the theme we had going...I can appreciate that! Just wanted to clear that part up.
"Morning all! I’m checking in from a donut shop this morning. Jelly donuts are my fave."
*swoons for multiple reasons now* Bring me a raspberry jelly filled and I'll be your slave for the day. We even agree about prostitution. It's going to be a good day. ;-)
Mulie, all sorts of occupations are dangerous. We allow them. Why not prostitution?
BD, have a wonderful time but you'll be missed! Promise you'll be back?
Shannon - hey - yes, I want sand between my toes and a drink in my hand. Yes, I realize it's 11 am here too. The kids were awesome during the trip and had a blast.
Hey Silva's!
I have to write a nasty-gram to the TSA and fire it off this afternoon.
Yesterday they pulled me aside for the full body scan (even though I did not set off the metal detector).
So they made me go into that thingy for the scan, which would've been okay except my girls were in front of me in going thru security and they didn't know what happened to me and the security guy wouldn't let me out to tell them to what to do.
Fortunately, my dad was traveling w/us too, but he had gone first and didn't see me get pulled aside either.
So I yelled as loud as I could to them to stop. From inside the thingy.
Then he told me they had to wand-search me.
Now, I have on a t-shirt, khaki shorts and low cut footie socks (Never go thru security barefoot, it's disgusting, FYI). So I had to wait for a female to pat me down and wand me. She said I was clear.
I get ready to leave the plexi-glass box and the guy says the "screen room guy" says to check my right ankle area. He tells me to sit, and wait for the female again, so I just reach down and pull off my sock, because by now I'm getting steamed, and my kids are asking for me.
He says I *still need to wait for the woman to come back! I'm barefoot at this point!
He finally opens the door for me to leave.
Now, I understand airport security because I travel *alot, I would have had no problem with this except "security" allowed my 8 year old and 4 1/2 year old to wander off without their Mom. And left my $1K worth of camera stuff and pocket book w/all my ID just sitting at the end of the security belt!
Long time lurker here. You ladies are funny and smart.
In fact, daisies are too smart to miss something important. If comments are on moderation, they can be manipulated. Don't post the original comment and write one to suit your purposes. For instance if the General Manager of a site is hiding her identity and someone comments showing that they have been found out, the comment would not be posted. But the General Manager might change the information, for instance changing a location from southern CA to Nevada, to divert attention, and might then choose a commenter's name designed to warn the original commenter that they think they know who it is. And if the General Manager were to do that, would it not confirm that the original commenter was indeed on to her? Follow? Smart women might check it out for themselves (I did), though a smart General Manager would by now have covered her tracks in all probability.
Rt, welcome and with all due respect because it appears you're trying to help, I think most everyone just doesn't care too much anymore. About any of it. Most any "proof" in all this silliness can be manipulated in any direction. It was fun for a few days, but I know I'm bored with it all now. They can post whatever they like over there and I just don't care...more power to 'em.
AP - It was at Tampa, which is actually one of my favorite airports. They need a process in place to secure your children in my opinion, and they will be hearing from me.
Deb, simply allowing you to bring your kids with you and to have them stand as close to you as possible seems like common sense to me. You know, to avoid lawsuits on their part. That's just terrible. Were they very scared? :-/
By the way, rt, if this is what happened to Wendy, she's beyond welcome to come here and explain that. I just figured I'd clarify. I also believe FWOP's reaction and subsequent followup to that post, whoever wrote it, will speak volumes for anyone still interested.
Did y'all read they've arrested the guy who did the attempted Times Square bombing? http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/05/04/new.york.car.bomb/index.html?hpt=T1&iref=BN1
Hi Deb! I was just thinking about you this morning! Isn't it you who is going to the Opryland Hotel soon? Did you see that it flooded this weekend? Google Opryland Hotel Flood Pictures and you'll see pictures of the flooded interior. I've been there several times and it's hard to imagine it flooded.
I am sorely out of the loop news-wise since i wasn't online yesterday. I need to catch up once I get DD down for a nap. Glad they caught him, although I don't know a ton about it at this point.
SW - I saw those photos of the Opryland Hotel- we just stayed there 3 weeks ago, and walking around downtown Nashville - yeah the part that is completely submerged now! It is horrible, I cannot imagine.
AP - The kids were a bit upset, not like crying hysterical, but very clingy afterward and asking every 5 minutes to tell them again what happened.
I agree, at least next to the box, or be able have another TSA person *get them for me instead of me having to yell to them to tell them! Like I said, luckily my dad was with us. Originally, it would have been just the kids and I. Then what?
Deb- that is miserable. You would think they would consider what should happen if something happened to one your kids while you were in there. Not to mention they couldn't have given you 30 seconds to make your kids aware of what was going on? That seems very ridiculous. I would definitely be sending a complaint their way!
I consider myself a pretty experience traveler. I have never been pulled aside before, so I was pretty surprised. I always, always make sure I have nothing on me that could set off the detectors.
It was very eye opening and very surprising that they did not seem to have a procedure on how to handle someone traveling with small children. The fact that they wouldn't let me get to them - that is what set this Mom off!
Taiya- It *does look great! I have wanted to use that chalkboard paint for a while. I would love to do it on the side of our shed, so it can be a big outdoor sidewalk chalk area. Don't know if it would work.
Depends on the wood- EL. I did this the first time and it didn't work out so well. This time I painted the frame and the back with regular paint after sanding and it worked *much* better. DD loves it, and I love the chalkboard stuff!
Everyone is welcome! The only real rules here are no spamming shit and no posting personal addresses, phone numbers or other similar info. I don't need that kind of stress. That's it, although it could change if someone gets creative or something. If you don't like what is said here, you can: 1) Say so; 2) Hold it in and stew on it; 3. Address it privately to the person who said it; 4) Snark about it to your friends; 5) Leave. Don't bother me with it, I don't care and I won't get involved. I might, however, talk about you behind your back or post your email/message to me on here. *grins*
Them's the rules...all of them.
Have fun!

Hi Sick - do I know you? LOL I'm confused at all the name changes - Can't keep up!!
Karen you know me and I am not that secret :) I went from being sweet and innocent to the real me...the sun went down what can I say?
Maybe I'll figure it out eventually - or by reading back.. just jumping in and chatting for a few before everyone goes to bed....

"i think the attempt to be hidden was more won feeling like she had to protect herself than being secretive."
Rhys, I saw this when the new post went up so I hopped back to address it. I'm sorry, but this just doesn't make sense at all.
Hi, Karen. How are the kittens? Once again, I want to be a part of your family. :-)
And *now, I'm gone. See y'all tomorrow.
SnT
i think it's more from the potential that GM is around than anything anyone here has done or said. honestly? i'm just tired of people pointing fingers and saying stuff.

Still catching up -
Jill said: My mom tried to cook bacon in the oven once.
yada yada yada,
The firemen were cute.
I literally spit my coffee out of my mouth laughing!! Ha! You are a funny girl Jill!!!
and Nitsirk - great to see you!
morning
Good morning, everyone!

Morning all! Hi Joyce!
I tried to catch up on what I missed, but all of the name changes confused my brain. :) Well, not *all of them.
TWG- Think I will try that recipe for my hubs. He would *love it! Anything with bacon. :)
Jill- I laughed out loud at your firemen comment right when the show we were watching got serious, which had my hubs looking at me in confusion, then I had to explain, but it just wasn't the same, apparently.
Morning girlies, and Chris.
Joyce- be careful. You are making the daisies look good and tarnishing their vile reputation! ;)
Karen- please stop telling me how cute those kitties are. I am twitching from *needing to spend time with a litter of new kitties.
Taiya- when is your next appt?
Hi Joyce! De-lurk more often :)
Hi EL err...VVC! Hi Taiya!
I know who Sheldon is!
ViEL, ViEL, CrocodiEL is a tough one, though.
Hmmmm...Where's CK, who could you be? ;-D
Any barenaked ladies in Belgium?
SC,
Some righteous Weeples from the internets have kidnapped me. But I still have wireless.
Morning again.
It's time for the OD show!
Where's CK? - Good to know. Having wireless is essential to remaining a vile person ::wink wink nudge nudge::
Good morning pot heads (flower pot heads that is).
Sheldon Cooper have you finally defeated the dreaded Wil Weaton yet?
AB,
Are you related to Beccah Beushausen?
(Isn't that a blast from the past?)
You look just like Karen Walker!
Hot Lips! Morning. How's Hawkeye?
Love me some M*A*S*H.
Unfortunatly Frank gets in the way of my fun with Hawkeye.
Good morning Ms. Beaverhausen - drunk as usual?
Actually, Beccah's in the cell next to me, rocking her reborn doll.
I can report that the extended breastfeeding isn't working out so well, though.
My first vile act of the day was handing out flyers for parents to come to the school board meeting next week - I'm sweatty and my hair looks like I've been through a wind tunnel.
Where's CK- yeah, it was tricky being super sneaky yesterday.
"Actually, Beccah's in the cell next to me, rocking her reborn doll." LOL. I have a perfect visual!
I have overhead her saying she IS going to homeschool little April Rose.
Hot Lips, started off with an Irish coffee.
Anastasia - Not yet. Alas. But I have a plan. ::evil grin::
Hi Hot Lips!
Hi Joyce and welcome. I agree nothing but a bunch of great peeps around here. Pull up a chair and join us.
Next appt. is Thursday. :)
Morning vile Daisies!
Welcome Joyce!
I just walked into my son's room to find my dog on his bed licking his pillow. She acted like I caught her in the middle of an affair. Weird dog.
So I went to read the comments on IM'post and Disqus wouldnt let me even view them. Since I was signed into DIsqus under my MWOP name, do you think they blocked me all together? I cant even see the comments??
Where's CK - "I have overhead her saying she IS going to homeschool little April Rose."
LMAO. I can see that :P
Sheldon,
I'm just listening to a little Vienna Teng before I get taken out for exercise time in the yard.
Morning all. I need to find that spanish teacher's info so I can send her some recipes. I crashed last night in the middle of our cooking lesson.
Pearl Jam was great. Eddie Vedder is beautiful. Gen X is old.
I was off making vile playdoh bunnies (Not to be confused with *Playboy bunnies, mind you) bricks and dinosaurs. :) Now DD is eating breakfast so I can relax. Good thing cuz Eeq is all over this morning and kind of making it uncomfortable to move around a lot.
Did you know Julia was a spy?
Hi Eirb! Re:disqus. I don't know how it works but I suppose it's possible you were blocked. Or disqus was being its usual PITA.
Where is CK- no relation to BB.
How'd the baby girl like Pearl Jam, Mulie? DD and Eeq both were/are rockers in the womb. :)
Where's CK - What a coincidence! I'm listening to Vienna Teng too :)
Margaret, I am *not a spy. I am a vile daisy!
Oh, you mean the *real Julia. Yes, I have heard that before. :)
Good morning *not Julia!
She was rocking out. I most most definitely rockin out. It was a pretty mellow set though. And everyone was bitching they didn't play "Jeremy".
I generally like IM but I have a hard time reading through his posts. I don't understand why anyone would get a notice to appear in court and not show up - my opinion and I'm sticking to it.
Ok - gotta make the donuts - BBL.
Guard is saying I must go outside now. Maybe Beccah will let me hold the baby.
Bye all - have a day!
Hi Mulie & Margaret!
Have a good day, Where's CK!
Margaret- I was reading the post and comments. I think he is really stepping in the poo with his posts and his attitude. Even when someone leaves a respectful comment/question he follows with a smart assed condecending answer. Half the time his smart ass snark doesn't even make sense.
Well, I have to go dig up the warranty info on my busted dryer, so I am out. Hope everyone has a great day!
Oh, and Karen- if you get on and catch this- the heel stuff is really working! Thanks!
Headed out to the craft store to come up with something cute for the grandkids to make grandma. Hope you guys have a great day! See ya later!
Oh, I am so confused!! All the name changes and such...hmm.
either way - good morning!!
TWG, those jalepenos sound wonderful!! I would have eaten them all too!!
by the way - I *love* Sheldon Cooper, I don't know who *this Sheldon Cooper is but the one on TV - hysterical!!!
The Silva's that *is the real Sheldon Cooper.
The Silva's I am craving your mexican lasagna.
<---- does not know who Sheldon Cooper is. Real *or Daisyfied
The Silva's - I am offended that you would second-guess my identity. I am the real Sheldon Cooper, the most brilliant physicist alive. I work hard to prove string theory and disprove my colleagues' work. Reconciling quantum mechanics and general relativity is my goal.
I cannot stand Will Wheaton and Leslie Winkle.
:)
VVC - You don't know me? Tsk tsk tsk.

Ahhh SC. You use big words and ideas, but i think I am on to you!
Morning all! I’m checking in from a donut shop this morning. Jelly donuts are my fave.
CK, thinking about your husband and sending positive job-getting thoughts!
Jill, you were up early this morning!
Welcome, Joyce! I agree with you – we are delightful here!
Karen, we need new kitten pictures. And FT/ST, how about a Shortround update?
VVC, thank you for the hint about who you are. As they say around here, “That’s putting the hay where the goats can get it!”
Sheldon Cooper, I love you so much! Last night’s Big Bang Theory cracked me up. You are hilarious!
Brie, that’s funny about your dog. I love my pillows too.
Information Society, are you a lawyer? Or you just playing one on Daisy? Like I used to do.
Okay, gotta hit the streets. And Hey! Be careful out there!
I forget I was supposed to be getting finger printed at 9 am. Oopsie.
<--- feeling the need to go super secret again.
One more thing before I go. The Today Show this morning had a segment about Craig's List and how it was supposed to have cleaned up all the sex ads but hasn't. I don't have a real problem with either (a) sex ads or (b) prostitution. I mean, I'd rather women not feel like they have to sell their bodies for money, but since some of us do, and there's a market for it, what's the real harm?
VVC - I am glad you're figuring me out ;)
SW - You are welcome. It is true that I, Sheldon Lee Cooper, am a genius whom everyone should admire. ;)

Uh....it's dangerous? For the women and the men. A good portion of the men are some weird sex addicts and a pretty fair amount of the women are drug addicts and victims of abuse. It's not like the Bunny Ranch where everyone is screened and in a controlled environment.
Good morning ladies
Welcome Joyce..you should join in more you already know we dont bite....well only AP but only to eat her wife :)
The dog/pillow story is too damn funny....I could totally see one of my psycho dogs doing that
wow, the *real* sheldon cooper!
i'm speechless. i want to say amazing things, but i will settle for saying 'hi'.
hi everyone
I have decided it is way to stinking early for being sick and twisted and scary :)
TWG I think I will be having an amazing yummy lunch today of your poppers
Good morning, everyone.
I have no effing clue what's going on with who said what under what name, etc. I went back to my own name, and I wish we could all just go back to chatterboxing away, but I understand this other freak show has to run its course.
Other than that, I <3 Pearl Jam, and that new song, Just Breathe, acoustic version? Lord.
Robin are you calling us a freak show????
Shannon -- I'm not calling *us a freak show at all. :) I was Kayi yesterday on FWOP, just in the interest of full disclosure and all, but I wish I wouldn't have poked at it. I just want it to go away.
(I noticed that many of the "supportive commenters" had names ending in 'i' so I wanted to fit in and all. :-))
RiM, Breath was sounded BEAUTIFUL! Eddie Vedder sounds better then ever. His voice is amazing.
strike the was
SC-I love the 2nd episode from last night with the ball pit, one of my favs for sure!!! Oh, and will you please tell us if Leonard and Penny will get back together? good thing you escaped the fate of that hell hound!!
RiM- I know nothing about any of the name changes, it really confuses me, but I am easily confused at times:)
*not Julia, I am making it tonight - oh and I use ground beef or shreadded chicken instead of ground chicken - someone mentioned they had trouble finding the ground chicken - I never even bothered to look:)
hey RiM and shannon
i'm making more poppers today too. even though i had too many last night. they are just satisfying! (:
wish peppers grew well out here. i'd fill the garden with them
:) I get it now
I have chosen to recognize that the FWOP seems to think that they have some power but I have decided that they wont be getting any from me. That is just what I have chosen for myself. I will check once or twice a day to see if there is anything new...I mean seriously they havent had much new stuff as of yet.
And SW, as a butch lesbian cop, you know full well the implications of prostitution!
TWG what about doing small pots of peppers? I too love peppers and we are trying that this year since some people are slacking on their gardening LOL
Enough with the popper talk! I had *just about convinced myself that pb&j would be much, much better for lunch than poppers (of which I have no ingredients for)
Hey RiM, Shannon, and Megan.
Morning all!
I wanted to let you know that I probably won't be around much, but that has nothing to do with recent events. We leave for vacation this weekend, and I have to do my normal neurotic cleaning-before-leaving and get the four of us packed and out the door. I also don't know how often I'll be able to get online at my FIL's place, although I have to work while there, so perhaps I can check in.
Anyway, just wanted to let you know. I will check my e-mail if anything spectacular happens and you just need to share it with me. I can check e-mail from my phone, I just can't post here.
BD, have a wonderful vacation!!!
Rhys - I love poppers. Peppers won't grow well there? Did I ask you about straw bale gardening?
Megan - I didn't mean the names here, although I am lost with many of them. And I didn't mean to be impatient with anyone here, because it's been very funny. Just all the trying to figure out who the freak running FWOP and all is, you know? It's a freak, an obviously unwell freak, and what else can you do about it, you know?
Margaret -- yes to Eddie Vedder. I could listen to that Into the Wild album over and over. (and boo to all you naysayers to Into the Wild yesterday. :))
I hope you have a good vacation, BD!
Hi girls - I'm taking a diet coke break and watching birds.
Have a great vacation BD!
I have a new post up on my blog :)
BD- have a great time!
BD have a great vacation...kinda jealous right now :)
Robin we tried the straw garden....yeah until the small child in the house managed to dig through the camping stuff and found the long lighter thing and almost burned the house down.
Bd - Have a great vacation!
Hi Rhys! I would gladly discuss physics with you, but alas I think we'd make people go away. Though it might be just as well. :P
The Silva's - As you know, human relationships baffle me and I therefore have no idea whether Penny and Leonard will get back together. I sincerely apologize for being unable to give you an answer. ;)
RiM - I can't figure everyone out either! I also can't find an avatar pic I like...
And I really think there needs to be an immediate name change!!!
Fight Unjust Cat Killing is NOT appropriate
It should be
Fight Unjust Cat Killing United!!!
Ah, Shannon. Glad *someone finally got that!!!
Okay, I think(?) I'm caught up from being away since Thurs!
Good Morning!
i had a little fun trying to figure everyone out, but i like it the old way thankyouverymuch!
I don't want to be at work, I want to go back to the beach.
Well I got it a while ago but it is early yet and I needed something smart to comment on it :)
Poor Deb has post vacation depression :) Did you have fun?
Hi, all!
Oh, Joyce...you called us "you people" and hmmm, once you post here, you're one of us people, too. Welcome! How'd you find us?
"i meant that the need to sometimes be incognito is not as devious as you're assigning the motive to be."
I agree and never did I say the fact she used another name here (or there) was devious. Truth be told, I found what she did here to be downright cute and funny and I mean that in the best possible way. She even took the time to pick a name that fit in with the theme we had going...I can appreciate that! Just wanted to clear that part up.
VVC, thank you. And that's all I'm saying.
Glad you are back Deb!! and I don't know who anyone is, unless they are themselves. Make sense? it does to me:)
Welcome back Deb! How was your vacation?
Deb - send me your e-mail, your book mark went for big bucks in the auction and I need to send you the winners address. shimargar @ aol
"Morning all! I’m checking in from a donut shop this morning. Jelly donuts are my fave."
*swoons for multiple reasons now*
Bring me a raspberry jelly filled and I'll be your slave for the day. We even agree about prostitution. It's going to be a good day. ;-)
Mulie, all sorts of occupations are dangerous. We allow them. Why not prostitution?
BD, have a wonderful time but you'll be missed! Promise you'll be back?
Hi, Megan!
Hi, Deb...was it a good vacation, then?
Shannon - hey - yes, I want sand between my toes and a drink in my hand. Yes, I realize it's 11 am here too. The kids were awesome during the trip and had a blast.
Hey Silva's!
I have to write a nasty-gram to the TSA and fire it off this afternoon.
Yesterday they pulled me aside for the full body scan (even though I did not set off the metal detector).
So they made me go into that thingy for the scan, which would've been okay except my girls were in front of me in going thru security and they didn't know what happened to me and the security guy wouldn't let me out to tell them to what to do.
Fortunately, my dad was traveling w/us too, but he had gone first and didn't see me get pulled aside either.
So I yelled as loud as I could to them to stop. From inside the thingy.
Then he told me they had to wand-search me.
Now, I have on a t-shirt, khaki shorts and low cut footie socks (Never go thru security barefoot, it's disgusting, FYI). So I had to wait for a female to pat me down and wand me. She said I was clear.
I get ready to leave the plexi-glass box and the guy says the "screen room guy" says to check my right ankle area. He tells me to sit, and wait for the female again, so I just reach down and pull off my sock, because by now I'm getting steamed, and my kids are asking for me.
He says I *still need to wait for the woman to come back! I'm barefoot at this point!
He finally opens the door for me to leave.
Now, I understand airport security because I travel *alot, I would have had no problem with this except "security" allowed my 8 year old and 4 1/2 year old to wander off without their Mom. And left my $1K worth of camera stuff and pocket book w/all my ID just sitting at the end of the security belt!
*Sorry that was long!
Long time lurker here. You ladies are funny and smart.
In fact, daisies are too smart to miss something important. If comments are on moderation, they can be manipulated. Don't post the original comment and write one to suit your purposes. For instance if the General Manager of a site is hiding her identity and someone comments showing that they have been found out, the comment would not be posted. But the General Manager might change the information, for instance changing a location from southern CA to Nevada, to divert attention, and might then choose a commenter's name designed to warn the original commenter that they think they know who it is. And if the General Manager were to do that, would it not confirm that the original commenter was indeed on to her? Follow? Smart women might check it out for themselves (I did), though a smart General Manager would by now have covered her tracks in all probability.
Oooh, Deb, I'd be *pissed. Shoot, that mess is worth contacting the media about, imo.
Rt, welcome and with all due respect because it appears you're trying to help, I think most everyone just doesn't care too much anymore. About any of it. Most any "proof" in all this silliness can be manipulated in any direction. It was fun for a few days, but I know I'm bored with it all now. They can post whatever they like over there and I just don't care...more power to 'em.
AP - It was at Tampa, which is actually one of my favorite airports. They need a process in place to secure your children in my opinion, and they will be hearing from me.
By the way, I heard I made "The List". Whatever.
Deb - That is...wow. I'd be beyond angry too.
rt - Hi! I thought of that too.
deb
i'm trying to imagine this
i'd be quite upset. wow.
Deb, simply allowing you to bring your kids with you and to have them stand as close to you as possible seems like common sense to me. You know, to avoid lawsuits on their part. That's just terrible. Were they very scared? :-/
Hey! Lunch time and my internet is working. Woot!
By the way, rt, if this is what happened to Wendy, she's beyond welcome to come here and explain that. I just figured I'd clarify. I also believe FWOP's reaction and subsequent followup to that post, whoever wrote it, will speak volumes for anyone still interested.
Good deal, Taiya!
Did y'all read they've arrested the guy who did the attempted Times Square bombing?

Hi Deb! I was just thinking about you this morning! Isn't it you who is going to the Opryland Hotel soon? Did you see that it flooded this weekend? Google Opryland Hotel Flood Pictures and you'll see pictures of the flooded interior. I've been there several times and it's hard to imagine it flooded.
And BD, we will miss you! If you want to comment on Daisy while you are away, just e-mail one of us and we'll post for you.
I am sorely out of the loop news-wise since i wasn't online yesterday. I need to catch up once I get DD down for a nap. Glad they caught him, although I don't know a ton about it at this point.
SW - I saw those photos of the Opryland Hotel- we just stayed there 3 weeks ago, and walking around downtown Nashville - yeah the part that is completely submerged now! It is horrible, I cannot imagine.
AP - The kids were a bit upset, not like crying hysterical, but very clingy afterward and asking every 5 minutes to tell them again what happened.
I agree, at least next to the box, or be able have another TSA person *get them for me instead of me having to yell to them to tell them! Like I said, luckily my dad was with us. Originally, it would have been just the kids and I. Then what?
Deb, that's just crazy that the TSA doesn't make allowances for people with kids! What the heck?
Deb, that is awful!!
Btw- I put up photos of my all-exciting chalkboard/cupboard door on my newly-reopened blog. :) I wouldn't mind if you told me how great it looked. :D
Deb- that is miserable. You would think they would consider what should happen if something happened to one your kids while you were in there. Not to mention they couldn't have given you 30 seconds to make your kids aware of what was going on? That seems very ridiculous. I would definitely be sending a complaint their way!
Ahh.... I killed it. Just in time to take DD to bed, too. Catch you later, Daisies!
I consider myself a pretty experience traveler. I have never been pulled aside before, so I was pretty surprised. I always, always make sure I have nothing on me that could set off the detectors.
It was very eye opening and very surprising that they did not seem to have a procedure on how to handle someone traveling with small children. The fact that they wouldn't let me get to them - that is what set this Mom off!
Deb- that sucks. So glad your dad was with you.
Taiya- It *does look great! I have wanted to use that chalkboard paint for a while. I would love to do it on the side of our shed, so it can be a big outdoor sidewalk chalk area. Don't know if it would work.
Oh, I have a friend that painted her breakfast nook with the chalkboard pait - it was super cute!! love the cabinet door!! and the stool:)
Taiya, the stool and chalkboard are adorable! That was smart, using that cabinet door.
Depends on the wood- EL. I did this the first time and it didn't work out so well. This time I painted the frame and the back with regular paint after sanding and it worked *much* better. DD loves it, and I love the chalkboard stuff!
****NEW POST!!****
