I totally agree with Dutchgirl... we were put on this Earth to torment and tease men. What a lucky position to be in, eh?

What would be the point of being married or being in a relationship if you can't have these powers?

I am totally going to have to get a new approach to marriage. I have been doing everything WRONG!

The "lads" are here raking up leaves, pine cones, petrified poop and other winter debris. I'm hoping they don't take the whole afternoon as I'm packed, have my boarding pass printed and am ready to roll as soon as they leave. I'm really looking forward to this break - my Christmas trip was a tad stressful with all the snow problems. If Nova Scotia is snowed in, you may never see me here again. Bye.

And try not to hit 500 when I'm not here to pull the plug.

Oh, I think you can safely go on your break.

HAVE FUN!

I caught chicken pox from my son., he was seven and I was about twenty seven at the time.

well i have had the chicken pox. my 5 year old should not have to much to worry about because of the vaccination for them. lucky kid.


and for all of you procrastinators just remember "If it weren't for the last minute, I wouldn't get anything done." ~Unknown ( and i sometimes fall into this catagory depending on what needs to do.)

My son got a VERY mild case of chickenpox when my daughter got it at age 4. He was about 5 months old. He got two (TWO!) spots! But then when he was about 2 or 3 years old, he got shingles. It was horrible--he had horrible, horrible huge spots all over half his head. I took him to the ER because I had NO IDEA what it was! He was put on Acyclivir as well as a bunch of other things and amazingly he didn't really suffer much. He did get some horrible scars though. One that deformed his eyelid (but now at age 14 it isn't too noticeable) and several in his hair, so as long as his hair is longish, you can't see them.

Have a fun trip, Ruth!!!

Allison: Just reading about your ds's shingles gives me the shivers. I too, would of brought him to the ER.

ditto to PEARY's!

oooh shingles! OUCH OUCHY OUCH OUCH!
Had them in my teens and they HURT.
and that was before things like Acyclovir, all they gave me was some aspirin which did absolutely nothing.
Glad to hear your little boy wasn't too bothered and that Acyclovir helped him. Can't stand to see a little kiddy in pain.

Statistics show that by the age of seventy there are five women for every man. Isn't that a bad time for those odds ?

Howdy all... Happy Thursday.

How about some silliness for you all...

How are husbands like lawn mowers?
They're hard to get started, they emit noxious odors, and half the time they don't work.

What do men and mascara have in common?
They both run at the first sign of emotion.

What's the smartest thing a man can say?
"My wife says..."


Why does it take 100 million sperms to fertilize one egg?
Because not one will stop and ask for directions.



:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Sorry Gary and Bill, they just had to be told. No harm meant for you.. well unless...]

Any age men are out numbered 5-1 can't be good!

Not true PEARY....it's "YES DEAR"

I guess that could be true Gary. But the other should be used quite as often. LOL!

Good Morning!! Well, it is SPRINGTIME in the ROCKIES!!!! We have about a foot of snow right now and it is supposed to continue snowing through tomorrow! :brr::snow4:

Dang I'm glad I moved to So Cal! I just don't "do" snow any more!

Lucky for me, my side of the state is snow-free.
Hang in there, Karen! I'm so over the white stuff!

these are a contribution from my BF:val1:

One day my housework-challenged husband decided to wash his sweatshirt. Seconds after he stepped into the laundry room, he shouted to me,
'What setting do I use on the washing machine?'
'It depends,' I replied. 'What does it say on your shirt?'
He yelled back, ' University of Oklahoma ..'

And they say blondes are dumb...

A couple is lying in bed.
The man says,
'I am going to make you the happiest woman in the world.'
The woman replies,
'I'll miss you...'

'It's just too hot to wear clothes today,' Jack says as he stepped out of the shower, 'honey, what do you think the neighbors would think if I mowed the lawn like this?'
'Probably that I married you for your money,' she replied.
---------------------------------------------
Q: What do you call an intelligent, good looking, sensitive man?
A: A rumor
-----------------------------------------------
Dear Lord,
I pray for Wisdom to understand my man; Love to forgive him; And Patience for his moods. Because, Lord, if I pray for Strength, I'll beat him to death.
AMEN

Q: Why do little boys whine?
A: They are practicing to be men.

Hi all:wave:

My neck/shoulder problem took a turn for the worse. I now have a pinched nerve from a bone spur in my neck. I am trying physical therapy but may have to have surgery. LOT'S OF PAIN!

I miss this thread and all of your wonderful humor! I will try to get back as much as I can but I have limited time at the computer.

Goddess: Even the pencil in the mouth hurts to type. LOL

Sending support
 

Ouch Hattie - Sorry to hear about the pinched nerve.

Sending supportive thoughts that physical therapy works for you.

Ouch HATTIE :( I hope you fell better real soon...we miss you!

BILL I see you and I both have missed the abuse here..."WE'RE BAAAAACK!"

KAREN sending blankets...K-razy weather you are having...just think...if I didn't owe on taxes which I sent last week I might have been there in Longmont for my god daughter's son's first B-Day today.

It is too late in the year for snow. Don't you understand?!?! Tell Mother Nature to cut it out, Karen!

Gary~the festival is a little too far away for me to hear it, but there were fireworks last night (not from the festival--most likely from a country club having their year end bash).

Going golfing today to celebrate the warm, beautiful weather here.

five women for every man
 

[quote=EZMONEY;2701727]Any age men are out numbered 5-1 can't be good!



Gary, are you sure you are only 55 ? Read my post again, 5 women for every man.....

OH! I not only read it...I totally UNDERSTOOD IT!

What guy, at 55, in his right mind would want to try and deal with 5 women at once?

Heck when I was younger....way younger....trying to date 3 at once (and yes they all knew I was dating others) was difficult enough. Especially when 2 of them had an older sister and those two older sisters were best friends ...so, no matter what I did or where I took one or the other of two of the gals they would find out...nothing big ever came of it but it did make it interesting...especially when all 3 showed up one night to watch me bowl...along with another one that had a crush on me...:dizzy:

fun...yep...but so much work!!!

I guess I run with a different crowd, the guys I know pray to have 5 women to themselves , well at least 3 .

Now that's a tough crowd BARGOO!

Hey there everyone. Just thought I'd check in. Screwed up my back at work this week. It's OK now, just a bit tender. The meds they gave me are making me a little worn out and I fall asleep in weird places. Have to kinda watch myself.

Ouch Operator and Hattie.
You can keep your snow Karen. DO NOT SEND IT HERE. I am telling you, keep it. All to yourself. LOL!
Gary, always bragging about your warm weather. Just you wait, soon enough you'll be the one whining that it is too hot. LOL!

Happy Weekend All!!!

Sorry about your back Miss TNT....hugs

I dunno PEARY...it has to get real hot before I complain...around 74 or so.....

Oh Lordy, Gary... 74 or so. LOL! So are you telling me that it doesn't get over 73 degrees then? Or are you in an air conditioned atmosphere at all times?

What's "air conditioned?"
