He's a sneaky one!! He'd trade his own wife if he thought it would get him something good (like a chainsaw). If he gives you too much trouble we'll tell you his nickname. :wink:

Caustic tongues on the other hand have caused us all a bit and more than a bit of grief.


I had a case of caustic tongue once, well I thought it was. Turned out to be a mild case of foot n' mouth disease. Nothing a can of Spam(TM) couldn't fix. However I did get acid on my tongue and that was a really long trip, till it cleared up by itself. Maybe.

I don't grieve over any of it. However I miss my pet rock. It was a horrible death, I left him near a rolling pin, I buried him on the beach. Mom wouldn't get me another one. Yeah it is tough to grow this old with so much grief, it weighs pretty heavy on my soul (I do so, too, have one :evil: ), lugging all this grit around. I have to, it reminds me of Ralphy, my pet rock. Oh, the burdens I do bare. :cry: I do so, too, miss my Ralphy. It still tastes bitter on my tongue.

Cold up in this part of the State, gettin cold down there yet? I've been keeping warm burning bridges.

Thanks for all the muffins, folks, but please tell me how to insert quotes from previous messages in my posts so that I don't keep breaking the thread with random interruptions.

We had our airshow in August. The Snowbirds were flying over the city for 2 days. I love the sound of the jets going over but could do without the aircraft carriers and helicopters. I thought my poor border collie was gonna' get an ulcer. :lol: And Kid #3 hid in the basement all weekend. He's with you on the noise factor.


I am going to go, while out and about today, to see if they have any flying aircraft carriers and send you a photo of any I do see, Lauri. :wink: How did the class go? Did you survive mentally intact?

Then again, I might just do the laundry. That has a bit more appeal and is less effort.


:P CARGO PLANES!! Yeesh!! :roll: :lol:

(was I mentally intact before I taught the class?? 8O )

Aha! Didn't get to the storage room, did ya'? Wanna' send the imaginary boyfriend back now? I need my towel hander-over back.

You didn't even guess my middle name yet. I already told you it wasn't trouble. You have no call to be handing out my nickname till you know my middle name. Nooo, it's not Rumplydimplesonhisskin. You gots to do better. Remember I get accused of thinking with it. Postie isn't it, that's my nickname. Drats!! 8O Let it out of the preverbal sac. Oh well it's out now, might as well use it.

I only have a Masters in Dirty Old Man. Writing my thesis right now.

So is it a deal? You never said. She'll have to hitch hike, but I'll pay air fare for the chain saw.

Only if you want a chainsaw, 4 kids and 2 dogs! :) I think I'll keep the fish, they're quiet!

Humm, they do all sound so nice. I had fish earlier this evening, so that's cool. Eating lima beans at the moment, not as good as fava beans. Let me digest all this first and I'll get back to you on the kids. Looked two days ago for recipes for kids, Bad luck, the only ones that I could find were for teaching them how to cook. That wasn't what I wanted at all. Dogs I have a recipe for. I must admit you are sweetening the pot rather well. Don't trade for any horses. Although I have a recipe for those too. I'll still only pay air fare for the chainsaw.

Thanks, its encouraging to see you've all survived, sense of humour and caustic tongues intact.


I have PHD in Curmudgeonology. Would like a muffin? I think I scared the last one that knocked on the door with, Hello There Sailor.

Survived? I did? WAHOOO!! I did something right, err, or is that a bad thing?



Ohyeah. Watch out for Postie, Sapphix. Especially if he has a roll of duct tape and you haven't had the muffins tested for ... extra special added ingredients. :wink:

Hmmm. Blind cats plus shrieking birds with hooked bills

Actually, we'll tell you his nickname even if he doesn't give you much trouble, but we'll let him sit there for a while and cringe wondering when we're gonna.... :twisted:
