[RICHARD]

Gosh,

I just saw that we are up to 120 Thursdays --- Four months worth....Where has time gone???

Let's open up the bar and if anyone has any suggestions????

First I'd like to propose a toast to Mario. who at this point is en route home...

Safe Journey, little one.....get home safely!!!!

Done!

[slick]

Hi Richard:
This "irritating" and "annoying" individual would like a double BM please. Make it strong enough to take way the stress of the day. Thanks.

A toast to Mario and home sweet home where he belongs.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

I have no good ideas for a drink of the day, but I'm about sick of html code right now, I have a headache and Terry's cranky. :rolleyes:

But, on the other hand, this is my LAST week of school!!! I take my final next week and then I just wait for the diploma to show up in the mail - wooo hooo!!! :D And besides that, Terry's already gone to bed, I've got an adorable little orangie boy all snuggled up next to me and an adorable little snotty girl curled up in her box, just waiting for me to go to bed too.

So, after all that, I'll just slurp down my slushie, then head off to bed. I've got the accountant coming in tomorrow at 10:00 am and the new accounting software people coming in about 1:30 pm, so I might be rather scarce. I'll check in when I can but hope everyone has a great Thursday!

Oh, finally heard from my insurance company today. They want to make an appointment to come out and see the damage on my car....and take pictures. ;) :rolleyes: :D

Good night all! :D

[lbaker]

Mario is sleeping it off right now, he arrived yesterday with a whole slew of goodies (thanks Gini, for everything ;) ). He keeps getting emails and calls from "the friendly skies" and I refuse to accept collect calls so doG only knows what went on :rolleyes: . Let's stretch out and gleefully enjoy these last few Thursdays of the very strange summer of 2005. Some good, some bad.. lots of laughs and a bit of sad. All rolled up together. Makes my poor wee brain dizzy sometimes so thanks to all my friends that keep me balanced. Here's to YOU! *whatever this concoction is I'm drinking... I dunno, just found some leftovers in a pitcher*

[Corinna]

Good Morning all. So glad Mario arrived safely. A whole four months of Thursdays WOW . Thats a lot of Booze and Haz Mat guys!!! I'll take my DLC for the road got a management Meeting this AM. Need to get some notes to geather. Will check in to night after work. Got to make tons of cookies for a staff BBQ here at my house on Monday. Bye till later guys.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

'Morning everyone, rise and shine!!

Just wanted to stop in to grab a quick breakfeast before the ball gets rolling today.

Mario, you're home! You be good now....oh, ok, here are some more cherries for you for breakfast. ;) :D

Laurie,

A banana daquiri for you and Mario. glad the old boy made it safely home.

Corrina,
ONe DLC for you....What is it, Meeting Thursday??

DONE..

See y'all later on!

[catland]

4 months of Thursday's. No wonder I'm exhausted.

Banana daquiris sound wonderful. Its actually kind of cool and cloudy here right now, but its supposed to warm up this weekend back into the 90's.

I'm so glad that Mario is home, safe and sound. So good to know that he didn't cause any incidents at the airport this time. That sense of humor of his will get him into trouble one of these days.:eek:

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Hi everyone!

After several wonderful cool rainy days, we are back in the sauna. Heat index heading to 110 again. At least it's only supposed to last a few days this time.

The cat kids need large iced catnip teas and I'm into large cherry limeades again. :D

Hi, Mario! What an adventure you had in CA and back, eh?
Grab your drinkie and tell me about it!;)

Oh, one of our regulars has a birthday on the 20th!
Think s....!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EARLY!:D

[dukedogsmom]

Welcome home, Mario! I've brought a big jar of cherries for you. That DOTD sounds really good. I'll have one with some chocolate syrup on top. Yum. Drinks and dessert all in one.

[lbaker]

And we thought we knew why we fell down around here ;)

KANSAS CITY, KS—As the debate over the teaching of evolution in public schools continues, a new controversy over the science curriculum arose Monday in this embattled Midwestern state. Scientists from the Evangelical Center For Faith-Based Reasoning are now asserting that the long-held "theory of gravity" is flawed, and they have responded to it with a new theory of Intelligent Falling.

Things fall not because they are acted upon by some gravitational force, but because a higher intelligence, 'God' if you will, is pushing them down," said Gabriel Burdett, who holds degrees in education, applied Scripture, and physics from Oral Roberts University.

:D :eek: :D

[DJFyrewolf36]

A DOTD please, and add a cold remidy to it! I *hate* summer colds. Everyone at the office is treating me like I'm cursed or something lol.

Well here's to my little blue pill car, who will be out of the shop and on the road TODAY (or so the mechanic says :p ) and here's another to rude people, may karma run over thier dogma!

Sigh, I'm a bit bitter today. Hoomans are really exhibiting the ability to be irritating.

Oh well, at least I can have fun and relax here!

[dukedogsmom]

Oh good grief! How stupid and closed minded. Do you have a link to go with that? I'd like to put that on another site.

[davidpizzica]

RICHARD, could I have a DOTD in honor of the first anniversary of my knee replacement! And three CNTs for the girls.

[DJFyrewolf36]

*waves* Hi David!!! :D Glad your knee is still doing good!

Oh my, I guess that means Humpty Dumpty was pushed after all. :(

I'll take a quick bite of lunch and a slushie to go. Got a brief break before the software people show up.

Laurie, maybe that's why Mario's plane lost a few thousand feet of altitude as it flew over Kansas? ;)

[lbaker]

:D :D I just hope losing altitude like that didn't make him "upchuck" all over the pretty little flight attendent he was flirting with :p

[RedHedd]

I've been working WAY too much and haven't had time to join in the fun, except to take a peek every now and again. Danged lawyers!

Question: Did the real live Mario actually get on a plane or is this the stuffie that visited Gini's that was being shipped somewhere or is this just a Thursdays' story and everything is cyber - the real Mario is safe and sound with his mommy, etc. :confused:

Obviously, I've missed some posts and am so confuzzled! :rolleyes: Bartender, please pour me whatever the DOTD is.

[Corinna]

OMG has it really been a year David? Where has the time gone? Glad your doing ok with it and mobile. It seems like just a couple months ago we were waiting to hear how it had gone.
I guess I'll take a DLC my meeting went great , got a lot of my ideas in and questions answered.
Got eat dinner and start baking cookies for my BBQ on monday. Hey if any one needs a good laugh get ,"The Muppet Wizard of Oz" It has Quention Tarrantino,Ashinti, and Queen Lathfia It is a riot.

[RICHARD]

I was sidelined by another thread....
I do want to give david a drink....we do hips, knees and all kinds of other repairs at work...A little professional pride is talking now.

Congrats.....

Done!

Hi MOFF, DDM, Catland, Corrina, Redd, DJ and T&P!!!


Since this has been a bus week let's keep the bar open all weekend...


Banana Daquiris, CNTs, CLAs, cold medicine and BMs.

DONE!!


For the record....I pulled up to a car today and saw that the plate from was from a dealership in Tigard, OR.



LOLOL, see ya all later on???

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Moff enters singing:
TOMORROW IS SLICK'S BIRTHDAY!!!!

Happy birthday tomorrow slick. I couldn't wait and started you a bd thread. Your drinks are on me today! I hope you have a great time on your bd.

Redhedd, the living breathing Mario was tucked safely in his bed last I heard. His mommy answered a thread by Gini. The one who travels is either the cyber one or the stuffed one. I'm not real sure myself which one it is in this case. :D

[gini]

Laurie, I am glad that little devil arrived home safely. He insisted that everything that was in his luggage belonged to HIM - and he was taking it all home!!

You might want to keep an eye on him because he called me in the middle of the night and asked me to Fedex his address book. Seems he left it here. I found it - and lordy - look out girls - he has everyones phone number with little comments beside each name. I blushed as I read the comments. He even had something to say about Richard. (cannot be printed here).

SLICK - HAPPY BIRTHDAY - a round of drinks for everyone and then let's stop and toast on of our dearest members and a dear friend.

Not sure if Sara will stop by the bar - but we will want to toast her too - her birthday is on Sunday.

Phone is ringing - oh good grief - it is United Airlines .............Mario must have done something!:D

[Killearn Kitties]

Happy Birthday to our birthday girls!! :D

I've brought one of Nigella cakes. A slice anyone?

[Edwina's Secretary]

Well....you know me.... not one much for bars and drinking.....:rolleyes:

Last week we went to a restaurant in Laguna Beach. Seems martinis are their speciality. They also had chocolate souffle. Such a decision.

I had a chocolate martini for dessert. Vanilla vodka, white chocolate liquor and dusted with powdered cocoa!

Oh my!

(Good thing as the next morning was my 17 hour cross-country trip....:mad: )

[DJFyrewolf36]

Hi again everyone! I got some good (sort of) news from the Doctor yesterday...well better news than I thought I was going to get anyhow. My blood tests say that my sugar count is elevated. I have to go back on Monday and take another blood test (I've changed my diet signifigantly since the last test), and if my sugar count has gone down then the Doctor says so long as I watch my diet, I can control my blood sugar without medication. If it hasn't gone down though, I'll have to take pills but my sugar isn't high enough to require insulin injections. The doctor is hesitant to put me on pills because I'm on the low end of being diabetic and if I don't watch myself very carefully I'll go into insulin shock. If on the pills, Id have to test my sugar myself 2 or 3 times a day, more if I feel symptoms of low blood sugar. The doctor seemed upset to tell me that I might have to take pills, I was just happy that I didn't need insulin injections! I'm glad to catch this early, if I hadn't, I would need a lot more extensive care later on in life. The blood test also said that my liver function is down and I have high iron. The iron part Ive known about all my life, my brother and my dad both have high iron too. I knew about my liver being off too, due to an overdose 4 years ago. The doctor said though, an improved diet may help my liver too and he wants to re-test that as well. If things haven't improved though, he wants me in for an ultrasound to make sure things are all ok. That part scares me. If they find anything "wierd" I might have to go in for surgery...I've never had surgery of any type before (except stiches). Hopefully though, things will be good and I won't even need an ultrasound.

Well thats my medical uppydate lol. This semi-good news deserves a drink. At least here, I don't have to worry about my sugar ;)

[slick]

Dear MOFF....just couldn't keep that mouth shut could you????;) :D Just kidding my friend......thanks for the thread you started. {{{hugs}}}

I've got a really busy day here today so can't stop long. Just wanted to say HI to everyone and DJF, good news. I'm in the same boat and test my blood sugar about 4 times a week. I've been warned also and doing my best to eat properly and improve my health.

Drinks for everyone and I'll try to check back later today.

Edit: I've just put in my $2.00 for this weekend's lottery. 14 million. Wish me luck! :)

[dukedogsmom]

Ok, everyone line up for Slick to pass the birthday paddling line. How many times should we whoop up on you, Slick? I'll borrow an old paddle from my dad's teaching days. But, at least it doesn't have holes in it.

[Killearn Kitties]

Good luck Slick! You have to win on your birthday!!!!! All fingers and paws crossed, legs and eyes and EVERYTHING. :D

[Pit Chick]

It's just one big B-Day weekend, my mom's b-day is tomorrow too. Happy birthday Slick, Sara, and Mom.

Haven't been here in a while, but I thought I'd stop in for a couple of shots before I head home.

Mario, you'll want to come sit next to me for these. Richard, we'll take a couple of Chocolate Covered Cherries please. Mario I love your facial expressions (:eek: ) they're priceless.

[Corinna]

Happy birthday Slick.

[Oggyflute]

G'day everyone, I've had quite a hard week, so maybe a long cool Corona might be the go.
"Hi Mario......Yes Possum's here..................Well it looks like she is over by your cherry jar"
Mario moves expiditiously in a blur of arms, legs and fur

I'll have some:) , but you know what happened last time we had some of Nigella's cakes in here.:rolleyes: :D

[slick]

Thanks for the BD wishes everyone but don't forget that it's Sara's (E's Secretary) BD on Sunday. We are a day apart.....won't tell you how many years though! :D

It's very hot this evening and I could use something to cool down. Maybe I'll make a pitcher of slushies and see who else shows up.

eyes and EVERYTHING
Hmmm, didn't I see your eyes crossed at Gini's????:eek: :D

Val: don't spread it around, but I like to be spanked!!! :eek:

PC: Happy BD to your Mom! :) :)

Trev: As always I pleasure to see you here, my friend. One day I swear I'm going to venture on down your way. Thanks to Carole for allowing you to become part of the family. Why doesn't she join too??

Yes, watch the Nigella cake....it will give Richard dreams he's never had before!! :D

DONE!

[Oggyflute]

Hi ya slick:)
I've tried to get Carole to join up, but she has never been too keen, purely because she is on computers all day at work so likes to have a break I think. But I do show her some interesting threads, and she has definitly got her favourite pooches on here.:)

Better have another Corona while I'm here I guess.:D

[lizbud]

I've been out shopping all morning in this awful midwestern
heat wave & I'd love to sit awhile with a nice cold draft beer.:D

[slick]

I'm late checking in today. Had a lovely phone conversation with someone abroad early this morning, then fed the kids and went back to bed. :o A real lazy day for me today but need to get to work soon.

Lizbud: cold beer, DONE! How about some stuffed mushrooms as an appie?

Oggy: Corona, DONE!

Oh dear, Mario has eaten all the Nigella cake. Come here sweetie and let me get that icing off your face.

[lizbud]

Stuffed mushrooms, great.:D Thanks so much.Sounds wonderful.

[momoffuzzyfaces]

We are between thunderstorms so I snuck in to raise a glass and wish all our birthday girls:


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
AND LOTS AND LOTS MORE!!!:D :D :D

[RICHARD]

:D :cool: :)

Since Mario ate the first one, If you make another one will you sell me a slice for a quarter?


Happy Birthday Slickster.

Happy Birthday Sarah.

Ladies, how does 28 feel???

Spaking of beer, Liz and Oggy...Last week I was at the butcher's counter and asked one of the guys what kinda beer was good for today.......

He gave me the name of a Mexican ale called Negra Modelo (Black Model) It is delicious, When you take a drink it you only taste it on your tongue...DUH!!!

It's hard to explain....after you take a drink the flavor sticks to your tongue. It's really bizarre but a great tasting beer....

I have to run...talk to you all later on..

[Killearn Kitties]

Since we have had so many birthdays, I've made another cake. Sould have made two in the first place! It's free for everyone!! No quarters required. :D

No Mario, you have had enough!

Hope you had a good day Slick, did you have to go in to work after all?

Have a great day, Sara! Hope your screen door is still in one piece for your birthday. :D

[slick]

Sunny Sunday morning to everyone! Fresh Baileys made and coffee is brewing.

Karen, thanks for making another cake. It looks divine! Richard, watch out for quarters you might find IN the cake. :D :D

Change of plans yesterday and didn't go into work, but I'll be there this afternoon. Only have to put in about 3 hours then back home.

Let's all raise a glass to our Sara on her special day.

[momoffuzzyfaces]

moff raises her glass:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SARA!
I HOPE THE E'S ARE EXTRA GOOD TO YOU TODAY!
:D
pssst: Eddie that means you!;)

[Edwina's Secretary]

Thank you all very much....and so far the E's are being good...but of course....they are still asleep....:rolleyes: :D :D
