The Cardinals play the Eagles and the town is going nuts.
Well everyone except me, I think football is nuts.

Cardinals win, yea!

[Okay, I guess I'm a little nuts too]

To the Cleveland Indians!

PS: I told a friend the Eagles lost because they are not used to having the sun in their eyes. He replied, Ah, they play in a dome. I stated, sure a dome that tops out at about 100ft above the ground. He said: So what's that have to do with anything? I told him that anyone who has ever visited Arizonia will tell you that the sun is only about 20 ft off the gound, well within the confines of the dome.

PSS: I parked my car in Phoenix once and an egg fell out of my pocket. I was immediately fined $100 for operating a sidewalk cafe. When I explained to the officer that that was my car I just got out of... he fined me an additional $50.00 for offering curbside service.

PSSS: I'll stop now.

If they have been REALLY bad, they go to the Arizona Diamondbacks.
If they have been REALLY good, they go to the California Angels.

Yes, it does get HOT here in the summer for about 4 months. The rest of the year the weather is great, but I will always be a California girl.

I'm with you blonde one....Cardinals win...yea!!!

Being a Cowboy fan living outside of Philly it's great to hear them all complaining again....might have to slide with the home state...Steelers in the Super Bowl....

Wel, yes we must stand with them or fall on our face with them..lol..whatever the case may be.

We let a Cowboy fan in here? Gee, that Network54 security leak is worse than I thought.

The Universe

Insane is an old friend from the StarShip Titanic game forum. I know you will like him not only because he is a Cowboy fan but because he is nice insane guy.

Insane, The Universe aka Pete is a real Qbasic kind of an guy, and he keeps our Universe spinning around.

As we like to say around Holiday time....

"A wise man follows the Star......"

Does being a redsox fan buy me some points?...or do I still need to eat in the kitchen?

Nice to meet you Universe.....

Is that like saying it isn't so bad to get kicked in the _ because at least then you know you're out in front? And a Redsox fan? Well, strike 2, pun intended, because as Blondie will tell you, you could put a gun to my head to try and get me to watch a baseball game, but instead, I'd just take the time to read up on brain surgery. And I know you're thinking, how could anyone do brain surgery with only half a brain? Well, I'd say twice as well as an M.D. and at half the cost. But if I did have half a brain, I still wouldn't watch baseball. I'd do just what I'm doing now, programming... only twice as well and probably for double the pay... oops.

PS: Kidding aside, I have never liked the Dallas Cowboys but I have nothing against Cowboy fans. It is a first rate franchise and I have plenty of friends from Texas that are more than happy to point that fact out to me. Hey, I don't suppose you like Aikido?

I guess thats a strike three, but I do have a little niece I believe is a brown belt. Visions of her flipping my brother around to get what she wants when she reaches the "age".

He's a programmer too, maybe I better start hitting him for some money.

All your brother needs to learn how to do is 'tap' out. For some 'insane' reason, we who do Aikido are conditioned to let go when that happens. If a smart mugger knows this, he not only gets away with the money, he also has a funny story to tell all his friends. (I think Aikido may have been invented by a blonde, what do you think?)

Tell your niece The Universe says: Ohayo gozaimazu... even if she isn't from Ohio. Oh, and be sure not to say that after 12-noon or you'll just look foolish.

The Universe

or better yet....maybe I'll just hit him if he's tapped out. I'm sure the blondish one is inventor of many things ....as for funny stories about muggers...I'm sure she heard a few at the bar. My niece will look surprised...do you happen to know the chinese translation of this morning of good?...but I will tell her just the same in a english variety...thanks...

Sorry, know only Japanese. For Chinese, go to China Town and ask for Caine; he will help you! (Oh, and order me some of that great tasing kung pow chicken while you're there.)

Did you know that Blondie and I went camping once and nearly froze to death. It's tue, we both forgot to bring any matches. It's amazing we are still friends, as later I discovered she had her lighter. When I confronted her and asked her why she didn't use it, she said, "Silly Universe, you didn't bring your lighter and everyone knows you need two lighters to rub together if you need to start a campfire!"

The Universe

I googled Aikido, and all I have to say is, "Does your chiropractor know what you do in your spare time?"


My camping and survival skills are dangerous. I learned all I know from Timeloyd and BlueNightingale. And, I was singing old camp songs in my head at the time.

...row row your boat gently down the stream...



PS
Thank goodness The Universe and I saw the following alert before we went camping. (He wanted to go to Alaska to talk political strategy with Sara Palin. I wanted to go camp out in BlueNightingale's back yard.)


ALERT
"In case anyone is considering doing some camping this spring or summer, please note the following public service announcement: In Alaska, tourists are warned to wear tiny bells on their clothing when hiking in bear country. The bells warn away MOST bears. Tourists are also cautioned to watch the ground on the trail, paying particular attention to bear droppings to be alert for the presence of Grizzly Bears. One can tell a Grizzly dropping because it has tiny bells in it."

we did a canoe trip for boy scouts over the summer, the placed we tented had black bear signs posted everywhere, the rangers handed out flyers, warnings about not securing the food in the trailer..fines would be implemented, it was to the point when we were cooking we all had visions of bears sitting outside the camp with forks in their hands....of course waiting for the scouts to fatten themselves up. The next day the rangers should up, inquiring about "any problems with the bears??" to the point where we were thankful to be alive, "Anybody else have any problems I asked??...."Nope, we haven't had a bear problem in two years"....gotta love them, turned out they did have a serious problem from careless campers with food and it took them a long time to have them change their hunting habbits...

Hey, I just find it easier to put up a tent when I talk to Sara but I digress... Actually, I think Grizzly Bears call those things "dinner bells."
