106?

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Pssst.....is anybody here? I've only got today and tomorrow before I'm off for a week (yippeeee!!!) so I wanted to make sure and not miss Thursdays, but the place looks pretty empty so far....

Oh well....I've discovered Mudslides so I'll make up a pitcher of those for whoever wants one. They're basically Kahlua mixed in the blender with ice. They're really a mix from TGI Fridays that says it's a coffee and cocoa flavors mixed with rum. You put it in the blender with ice and get a really yummy drink. Mix it with ice cream instead of ice and get the most delicious chocolate shake you've ever had!

Yes, Mario, a cherry would be perfect on the top of a mudslide! :D

[robinh]

I'm so glad someone's here. I'm having one of those days and I'd love to have a mudslide. Thanks so much for making them.
:)

[momoffuzzyfaces]

I'm here!

Allergies runing rampent and giving me a sore throat so I'll just grab a cherry limeade and go snooze in the corner.

Thanks for the cherry for my limeade Mario but could I have one you haven't squeezed to death?:D

[davidpizzica]

AHHHHHH! A mudslide! Make that TWO mudslides. After a day of being general slave at the golf course, I can use 'em! Uh, Mario? just place the cherry in my drink. don't slam dunk it, please.

[catland]

Hi everybody - yes things have sure gotten quieter around here - I hope its only a phase.

Those mudslides sound delicious, right now according to the scale I'd better stick to just the cyber kind :eek:

Sorry to hear about the allergies mo-mo. My husband suffers greatly this time of year. We almost stock enough Drixoral at home to open our own meth-lab. (we actually have to show ID to buy over-the-counter allergy medications because of the meth problem here).

I get hay fever pretty occasionally (which is pretty bad when you consider that I cut grass on a golf course for a living!) Connie, I'll bring over a mudslide and join you in the corner.

catland, same here. I used to use Actifed. It's kept under lock and key too. I stopped using it because it interfered with my arthritis medicine. I just sniffle and sneeze now.

[elizabethann]

Mudslides....those things can be very dangerous. I was a Bridesmaid in a friends wedding years ago and had 3 of them! The place where the reception was held had a 2 mudslides per person limit. I just got someone to buy me my THIRD. Needless to say, I don't remember the reception at ALL! I look at pictures of me at the reception and I don't even remember having the pictures taken. Rumor has it I had a good time.

I haven't had a mudslide since.

:(

I'll just take a beer if you have one.

:)

[PJ's Mom]

I pop in to these Thursday threads almost every week, even if I don't say anything. But all this time, I keep asking myself the same question and now it's time to ask you all..

Who's Mario? :eek:

:)

I'll have a Mudslide too please. Bring those cherries over here Mario, I want one too. No, not the one in your diaper. :eek:

Glad everyone is enjoying the Mudslides and yes, these are cyber Mudslides so no calories, no sugar (so they ok for your diabetes David) and you only "feel" them if you want to elizabethann, so you can still have the cyber ones and still remember stuff. ;) Last time that happened to me Jack Daniels was involved and I know how you feel because I don't drink Jack Daniels anymore. :o :)

As Richard would say - here's a collective

DONE!

[lbaker]

Haven't opened the Mario threads but when I first met him I found out he's a widower. He was once married to a wife that worked in a circus and wore a diaper (sorry Mario, I've forgotten her name). Whatever you do, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT leave your keys or shiny objects around unless you want to crawl on the roof to look for them :rolleyes: He's a kidder, he's a joker - he's a midnight toker.... he don't want to hurt no one... oh baaaarrtender, can you slide some of that mud this way please? mmmmmm! Let's see, what munchies would work with mudslides that won't make us OD on chocolate? Maybe something salty?? Hmmm, let me put my brain on it (uh oh, she's going to work without her tools again:rolleyes:

[momoffuzzyfaces]

clank, clank, rattle, rattle:

Don't mind me, I'm just raiding the fridg! I forgot the catnip tea this afternoon and am now ordered to bring it asap, on ice, if you please.

Hot here. Still 90 at 7 pm. Gosh just a few days ago, I needed the furnace and may again this weekend. Ah, Kansas! The goofy weather state.

Oh, Speaking of Kansas: The muppets are putting on The Wizard of OZ. It's on ABC and is on either Friday or Saturday of next week. Kermit plays the scarecrow. Just thought you all may want to look for it. As a former munchkin, I'm looking foreward to seeing it.:D

Follow the yellow brick road .... follow the yellow brick road... follow the... follow the... follow the... follow the... follow the yellow brick roaaaaad. We're off to see the wizard ....
moff skips off, singing with catnip tea in her basket.:eek::D

[Oggyflute]

Hi all, I'm here, but like Connie I'm a bit sick. Go a cold and a ravenous sore throat.:( So might have to pass on the mudslides today Debbie.

Not a bad rendition of Lou Reed Laurie:D

I think I need something for my cold. I'll take anything with booze and honey in it.:D In the meantime I might just crash in this corner for a bit.

Mario, please stop throwing cherries at me.

Mario, please stop throwing cherries at me. Sounds like you could use a hot toddy!
Whisky, water, lemon juice and honey! My parents always gave them to us when we were kids and sick. Now days they would probably be arrested for contributing to the delinquency of a minor! We always felt better though! :D

[Corinna]

Hi all I'll take a DLC I had a 5 hour safty meeting today . then my boss turns to me and says "you are going to to the staff meeting part on safty" oh great ! So now I need to find charts with correct procedures off to the internet later.
PJ'S Mom , Mario is a monkey that wWillie owns she had 2 but his "wife" died a couple years ago he kind of was adopted by us in the bar . He can take the blame for just about any thing that can go wrong.

I've been drinking hot orange juice and tea with lemon & honey. I have scotch, but it's Chivas Regal, and I can't bring myself to drink it in a toddy.:D I also made a batch of pea, ham & potatoe soup, that seems to be doing the trick.:)

[zippy-kat]

Oggy, I haven't told you this but I am ABSOLUTELY enchanted by that Possum! :D (It's the ears!)

[Oggyflute]

Thanks mate, she's a beautiful little girl. Carole fell in love with her immeadiately, so we didn't really see any other rescue pups.:)

[christa]

Count me in! Mudslide please . . . Mario, think you could sneak me in an extra cherry?

BTW, WHERE IS RICHARD???

It's already been a long week . . . need to kick back and relax!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Hmmm...must be 'cause you're on the opposite side of the ol' dirt ball because split pea soup (what we call it) always makes Terry sick instead of making him feel better! He has an infamous story of how, one Halloween his mother wouldn't let him go trick or treating until he finished his pea soup and grape juice. He chugged it all down and two minutes later threw it right back up again. Can you imagine, pea soup and grape juice - eeeewwwwww :p Ever since then he can't stand the smell of pea soup....and I love it! Wonder how come he doesn't hate grape juice too? :confused:

Hot toddy for Oggy and Mudslides for the rest of the gang. Went to the liquor store tonight and they have all sorts of these drinks! I'm such an alcohol novice. :o Beer - no problem, but anything else and I only know the basics. So much to learn, so few Thursdays. ;) :D

Fresh pitcher of Mudslides here for everybody!

[PJ's Mom]

Thanks for the info on Mario. I feel so "in the know" now. :D

[DJFyrewolf36]

Hey all....

I haven't been to Thursdays in a long while! Heya Mario, whats up?

A nice glass of Warm milk for me thanks...I've been sick with this nasty sore throat and caugh thats making my stomach upset. Gosh it seems like everyone has been getting the ol creeping crud :( Remus says a catnip tea cures everything though...

Funny that Pea soup is mentioned. My mom made up a huge batch for mothers day and its been the only thing I've been able to keep down. I just love it! I'll take a bowl of that too...

Oh and dont forget the CNT for Remus and Spook, they've been working hard to make me feel better!

[lbaker]

I just love pea soup, I make mine with any ham chunks I have, or a ham bone. It may be a bit thick to serve with mudslides today though :confused: If we are going to do soup, maybe some minestrone. Takes awhile but I'm sure I can find some leftovers to throw in. Hey you West Coasters, can anyone find some woooonderful sourdough bread? I feel like a bloody mary this morning (no comments from the peanut gallery please :rolleyes: ). I've been humming Lou Reed songs all morning, can someone pleeeease put a nickel in the jukebox and play something else? Trev? I think dear little Possum and Mario have become fast friends by the way.:cool:

[Pit Chick]

Originally posted by Tubby & Peanut's Mom

I don't blame him. I couldn't imagine trying to get down pea soup and grape juice, but the thought of it coming back up would be enough to keep me from getting it down. :eek:

[gini]

O.K. Mario - settle down. Just because PJ's Mom asked who you were doesn't mean you have to strut around the bar like that - flinging cherries at everyone!

You know - Possum and Mario seem to get along quite well. How about we adopt Possum for the bar too? I think she could keep Mario in line. (I am in love with Possum too - but for me it is the eyes!)

Pea soup and grape juice - ka yuck!! It reminds me of having to eat breakfast on Christmas morning BEFORE opening presents when I was a kid. I opted for a bowl of corn flakes which I whoofed down. Promptly whoofed them back up! I have hated corn flakes to this day.

Now a mudslide - mmmm - does that sound good.

What is to eat around here - aside from pea soup? Laurie, are you making crab cakes today by any chance?

Richard will drop in when he can - serve up drinks for everyone - yell DONE and then go right back to work. Seems he has a new boss that has no sense of humor - and well - no sense!

I don't have to work today, do I??? Someone tell me no - I love a good lie!:cool:

Come on Possum - let's teach Mario how to play soccer.

[lbaker]

It's YOUR lie Gini, you can tell it anyway you want ;) A little early in the year for good size Chesapeake Bay crabs of any decent size but would anyone like some sauted soft shells? I love them but understand that the idea of eating a whole crab, legs and all, can be a bit disconcerting to those that aren't familiar with it :p

[gini]

Oh Laurie, I have only had soft shell crabs ONCE..........and I just loved them. And that AIN'T no lie!:D

[lbaker]

I'll clean them up in the back. The process of cleaning soft shells is not for the squeemish (heh heh heh). I think they go nicely with some new fresh asperagoose so let's soak some spears. WOW, wanna grill something? This bloody is soooo nice this morning - think I'll have another. STOP KICKING THAT SOCCER BALL AROUND INSIDE THE BAR YOU TWO!!! Thats why we have a playground outside :rolleyes:

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

I'll pass on the clams, guys, but Terry loves a good linguini with white clam sauce, so he can have my share. But since the grill will be going, I'll throw some shrimpies on it and have shrimp on the barbie. Mmmm......sounds yummy and it's nowhere near lunchtime around here! :rolleyes:

Oh, and Gini, don't you mean Possum can teach Mario about football? I think we're the only ones in the world that call it soccer, aren't we?

Where's Slick at this week?

It's back to fall here, so I think I'll start a fire in the fireplace....if the wood isn't too wet from all the rain....

Terry's at home packing up the motorhome. I hate when he does that by himself because I leave all this stuff out that needs to go in and he either just takes it in and throws it any old where, or he puts it someplace where I don't know where it is.....all the while complaining about all the crap we have to drag along.....but he doesn't understand, I need all that crap, that's why we got a motorhome so I can bring it all along. ;)

Anyway, enough of my ramblings. Hope everyone has a good day!

[momoffuzzyfaces]

I hear spaghetti and meatballs calling my name today! Some garlic bread too!
I'll fix some and grab some catnip teas for my kids and a cherry limeade for me.

Mario, turn loose of the cherry jar!!! I'll give it right back! :D

[davidpizzica]

Those sauteed soft shell crabs sound and smell DELICIOUS. I love crabs and crabmeat in any form and it is something I CAN eat!

[lbaker]

Later on in the summer we will have to have another huge beach party cookout one Thursday. Worth the wait to get good ripe 'maters and local corn eh? We'll make it a crab/lobster/crawdaddy feast. For today though a few soft shells, two kinds of soup. I'm sure we have some leftover pa-sketty for MOFF and garlic bread is good with everything. Drinks for everyone with a big, collective

DONE :D :D

[gini]

Dashing in for a minute to grab a cool drink and have a laugh or two.

Possum - Mario is NOT the football.......quit kicking him!

Spaketti and meat balls..........ohhh, garlic bread too.........what a lunch!

[lbaker]

Now Mario is trying to get Possum to play marbles with meatballs. Look out Possum! Mario cheats, he has opposable thumbs :eek: heh heh heh, Mario can't figure out why all the "marbles" keep disapearing when they get close to Possum

[RedHedd]

Just dropping in for a quick peek, hi everybody .... Red tosses a few loaves of San Francisco Sourdough out to the crowd, grabs a CNT and it's <whoosh> back to work .... Bye!

[lbaker]

FOOD FIGHT, FOOD FIGHT! Tossed out Sourdough bread and meatballs to the crowd did you RedHedd :eek: Watch your backs! EEEK :eek: Dang, and here we just did a spring cleaning... oh well, praise the Lord and pass the ammunition. Gimme one of those dang meatballs! And pass a Slushie down the bar. YIIII HOWDY.

[gini]

What? A food fight? And I just got my clothes all clean again.

Oh well. Hope you don't mind if I eat a few meatballs and some of that good bread while I wait for some unwilling victim to pass by.

Possum sweetie - no - these meatballs aren't good for you.

[davidpizzica]

Hi, could I have. . Whoa! Flying meatballs?! Whack! I felt THAT meatball! Aw, Mario. did you throw that one?

[gini]

Hee hee - no David, that was me...........you walked right into a food fight!!

[davidpizzica]

Gini, did anyone ever tell you that ypu have a great pitching arm? Now to find some ammo!!

[RedHedd]

Oh dear! No, Mario, you're not supposed to use that like a baseball bat! Yeow what a mess!

Hi everyone!

Hello from the LOTEA

How is everyone???

Grape juice and pea soup???

It reminds me of the Air Force acrobatic team, The Thunderbirds..

They take journalists up for a ride when they hit town.

One journalist was told to eat something before his ride because some people blow chunks during the manuevers..

He asked the pilot what he should eat..was there any food that was better than another??

He was told BANANAS....

Bananas?

"Yes", the pilot anwered, "they take the same when they come back up...."

lolol....

Mudslides!!!

That's not a good word in Lost Angeles during the rainy season!!!


I miss you all dearly and will try to stop in more often.

[Oggyflute]

Hey all, how is everyone. Possum you look a mess, what am I going to tell your mother? Yes little one go outside and play football, Dad want's to have a nice quiet beer. Mario don't even think of putting those cherries anywhere.

Wow, better clean this place up a bit after my beer. What on earth is that? *sniff* *sniff* Crab meat? *sniff* cherrys? *sniff* Hmm could be left over pea soup? Boy lucky I didn't tread in it.

I'll just stoke up this fire too, maybe open some vintage port.

[Lacey]

Don't mind me. Just sneaking in for a bit of after-hours snacking. Looks like quite a lot of fun was had yesterday. Nothing like a good food fight! Ah! Here's a piece of that sourdough bread. I'll just toast it and and spread some strawberry jam on it. Mmmm!

Any of those mudslides left! Ah, there's a pitcher! I'll just borrow this. Let's see... Better not forget the CNTs for the babies. I'll just add some Rescue Remedy to Kahlua's and we'll be set.

Ooooh! Is that crab? I'd never be forgiven if I didn't take some back. Now that this tray's all piled high, I'd better slip back to work.

Oh, Mario! Are you responsible for this? (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050512/ap_on_fe_st/stolen_weenie) Somehow I don't think that would be fair to use in a food fight.

[lbaker]

Poor Ardrey and his missing weenie :(

[momoffuzzyfaces]

squish squish squoosh! squish squish squoosh!

Just me sneaking in to raid the fridge. We are between thunderstorms - again! I need to fix a basket and run. I'm taking some catnip teas, a cherry vanilla coke and leftover spaghetti.
What happened to all the meatballs? Mario??????

HAPPY FRIDAY 13TH EVERYONE!
:eek: :D

squish squish squoosh! squish squish squoosh!

[lbaker]

I believe that's the storm heading my way MOFF. Thanks for the reminder, I'll get my wet-suit out of the storage room. High in the mid-60's today but expecting wet, rainy, ooky, humid 80's tomorrow. Sheez Louise, this weather is enough to drive anyone nutz.

Hi everyone,

I stopped in for a minute....there's a break in the race and I thought I'd drop in for a second...

Glad to see everyones doing well and Mario is o.k.


Moff?
Can I help you with your basket??


DONE!! God I love that!


I'll be back later on!!!

[Oggyflute]

Hey everyone, might just have to get some blender action going.

Mario don't drag that weenie in here, play with it out the back. Now for some strawberry daiquiris, alright Mario, you can have a cherry one, just don't give any to Possum.

[RICHARD]

Hi everyone...
I'm ready for blender action...I have to practice for July.


Oggy,

Tomorrow the Strawberry Festival opens in Ventura Ca...

perfect timing!!
:D

[dukedogsmom]

We've already had our Strawberry Festival this year. The crop wasn't very plentiful like it usually is. They were way too expensive in the supermarket, too. So, enjoy them? I'm at work now trying to stay awake. Though it's slowed down. It's been so busy that I now have a headache. What's the drink here tonight?

Sigh, cats have a sixth sense when it comes to knowing when you'll be gone...and they make you feel guilty about it too.

I'll take a mudslide, I am feeling MUCH better today :D
