A noble aspiration Pear ... truly.

Well thanks Susan! :)

Someone's aspiring to be a top poster on Threadkiller. Gotta worry about them :dizzy: .

Gotta worry about all of us. :)

Nah it would be worrisome to not be able to do what we are doing...free flowing thought...hmmm what was I going to say? The thought escaped me...flowing what?:p:dizzy:

flowed right outta yer head

Eeeps... it flowed right out of the noggin. Oh no... maybe I'll catch it. Where you wanting to talk about velcro shoes vs. tie shoes or was it cookies with milk or with out a tall glass of chilly milk? Oh I could talk about a shot of Raspberry Vodka too. MMMMMM... not this early in the day, but maybe later with din-din. LOL!

You can't be taking weekends off. Whatcho think this is-a union thread?

This isn't a union? Here I thought I belonged to the Union Of Out the ears and jibbery jabberish free flowing talk. :dizzy:

We are just united in our need for tomfoolery.

I'm not trying to keep up. I get in trouble at work if I spend too much time at non-work related websites.... whatever...

I'll give a good effort though!!!! This is the thread I enjoy the most. It makes me happy to be mindless. Because most of the time I make a lot of sense and have coherent thoughts. No, really... I do.

Really!

I'm an acorn, small and round
Lying on the hard cold ground
Someone came and stepped on me
That is why I'm cracked you see
I'm a Nut. :cp:
I'm a Nut. :cp:
I'm CRAZY!!!!:twirly:

No way!

Love the poem!

I would like to talk about the velcro wall being installed in the rec room! Then when the kids act wrangy I can stick them there while I go have my 6pm scotch!

Thanks for the reminder, Julia. I need to have my 6 PM Scotch early since I have a meeting. Where do you live, by the way? We might be at the same meeting. I'll be the old broad tearing a strip off a snotty music director.

*BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ* Sarcasm Alert! Sarcasm Alert!!!
A smart alack has been detected in the quoted post!!!

Oh well, could be right. AnyHoo.

They're coming to take me away, ha ha
They're coming to take me away, ha ha, he he, ho ho
To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see those nice young men
In their clean white coats
And they're coming to take me away, ha ha

:dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

50...
 

... 450 to go.


What this thread needs is a topic to be off of.




[Note to self: Some sentences just seem to end in a preposition all on their own, because "with which to be off" just doesn't seem right even though there is a proper Shakespearean type about.]

So we're doing song lyrics, huh? A little Dr. Demento I gather?

Fish heads, fish heads, rolly polly fish heads
Fish heads, fish heads, eat them up
Yumm!

Bill, may I refer you to Strunk & White's The Elements of Style?

Bill-Al and I are singing songs about being nuts.
Ruth and Julia are getting drunk.
Slash is practicing her sarcasm.
And you are playing Mr. Law and Order BossyButt.

Choose a non-topic from above or come up with one of your own.:p

I don't care if I go crazy
1,2,3,4,5,6 Switch
Crazy go I if care don't
6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Switch

I'll go with the drunk group... and Pear...can you pass the raspberry vodka?
I have had it mixed in a white russian and it is ssooooooo good!!! Makes you all warm and toasty!!

Salute Strunk & White
 

Publisher: bnpublishing.net (October 21, 2008) 2008!!!!!!!! Good grief. My copy of Strunk and White is so old it's printed on birch bark. I loved that book.Alas, they say it right there in black and white, Operator is right, the rules may be disregarded. But I am owed some "compensating merit."

Thank you, thank you, alinnell for reminding me of that jewel.



But yipes, now they're selling new copies on Amazon for only $2.99 LIST PRICE. Whatever is this world coming to?

[See, there it is again. "Into what is this world ever coming," just doesn't make it.]

Rules of ThreadKiller:

1)Operator is ALWAYS right.

2)If Operator is ever wrong, refer back to Rule 1.

But, there are no rules here so, whateva.


I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you have the role

Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm goin' off of the rails on the Crazy Train

Morning!

I'm not sure if reading this thread is good for me. My brain is addled a lot lately and this doesn't help.

I've got enough to share, sure.
Never thought to mix it in a White Russian.. going to have to try that. Thanks for adding that to my Drink List. :D


I love the songs... too bad I am not talented enough to sing one on my own... maybe after a few more drinks?!?!? We shall see...

Just give in to the madness. It is a lot easier than fighting it!

Oh, hey! Shouldn't we be talking about Gary behind his back? He's not going to be here for a couple of days.

Not as much fun as picking on Bill, though.... at least he gets to hear/see it!

Can you guys keep it down. There's an Inaugration to watch.

Multi-tasking. Got streaming CNN on one window and 3FC on another. Work? Meh, who cares?

Keep it down... NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! We are silly not on topic people. We can't be quiet. Who do you think we are??? LOL!

anybody up for a nap? I am? Should be working... but I like 3FC better :-P

A nap... I would participate but then Bill would have his way and we'd all be quiet. Unless.... I know I can't sleep in the quiet, I could blare some nature sounding music. Would that help !??!

waterfalls or rain fall... always good for sleeping... my students are always requesting a nap time, I figure I could give in one of these days... but then they might think I'm not all that mean... hmmmmmm...

A man...multitask...are you crazy?:dizzy: Their kind can't even make a poo in less than 45 min.:rolleyes:

That's why all the laxative commercial are for women. What woman, after having children, has a whole hour to dedicate to rolling a log. I mean, really, the house would come down around them in that much time.:eek:

Nope, not me. I get in, get done, get out and find out what in **** my kids have gotten into while I was "busy". I certainly don't want my epitaph to read, "Died while on the toilet allowing her children time to burn the house down around her.":snooty:

I can't imagine sitting on the pot and reading the paper like my DH does. I'm another get in, get it done and get out kinda gal.

my bf calls it his "bathroom time," spends 45 minutes in there and then sprays the whole apartment down with air freshener... stinky...

My girls and I used to carefully watch Dad when we lived in a house with only 1 bathroom. If he grabbed the local paper, which was only like 10 pages, we could all relax. But, if he grabbed the Rocky Mtn. News or several magazines, we all climbed over each other trying to get to it before he took over. The 1 hour wait time and the 2 hrs. it took for the air to clear were just to much. There is not enough air freshener on the planet to cover what he did to the air quality.

What's with all this poop and pooing talk? It is turning my stomach. I think I need to go outdoors and get some fresh non-stinking air.

Fine Peary. I went to the store this morning and, I swear, the guy in line in front of me had the worst BO on the planet. Make your eyes water type. You coulda smelt him, like, 3 aisles away.:s:
