It's Seven already! Too bad Matt disabled the BGSOUND SRC tag or you'd be listening to reveille right now....” 6:27:05 AM 6/24/04 “Reveille was 3 hours ago.” 7:13:12 AM 6/24/04 “I never could get used to getting jarred awake by reveille. Taps, on the other hand, is something special. I could imagine (and, indeed, am actually imagining it right now) playing it each evening, looking out over the mountains, after a long hike. I'm not becoming much of a curmudgeon if I still occasionally lapse into romanticizing things am I?” 7:18:09 AM 6/24/04 “Good morning. I broke down and came to town to say "hi". (I did have other errands to run & we're going fishing later in the day) Going to try to drown some worms. Aero, how's the painting going? Got some great weather here now but it's supposed to get rainy. what's the forecast for the east side?” 10:58:51 AM 6/24/04 “TGIF already” 3:55:08 AM 6/25/04 “amen brotha'!” 4:09:30 AM 6/25/04 “TG!” 7:16:04 AM 6/25/04 “T” 7:28:41 AM 6/25/04 “Good morning. It's been a long week.” 7:31:28 AM 6/25/04 “yes, it has been a long week. i can't wait to go home tonight and do absolutly NOTHING!! well, we'll probably watch the 2nd Harry Potter movie tonight since we're going to see the 3rd one tomorrow at the IMAX theatre.” 7:41:39 AM 6/25/04 Summer??? “In the 40's this morning at Rock Creek SP, Iowa. A couple of mornings ago it was 23 in NE MN. Summer my as_! I'm going back to FL in a couple of days. Saw fabulous lizs yesterday. Caught her working on the newspaper. Trailtalk was nowhere to be seen on her console. It was wonderful having lunch with such an interesting, beautiful girl.” 10:02:30 AM 6/25/04 “Out of the slammer I see, NS!” 10:05:30 AM 6/25/04 “Hey mtnmom. I'm still painting....we had some thunderstorms roll through the last couple nights so it's slowed me down. I went golfing instead. But this weekend--watch out!” 10:07:19 AM 6/25/04 “Time off for good behavior..... NAH!” 10:08:44 AM 6/25/04 “It's good to see you got that file, which was cleverly hidden in a cake, that I sent you NS.” 10:11:12 AM 6/25/04 “Hey, NS, where exactly are you going in Iowa? I have some relations/friends smattered throughout the state. Used to live in the NE corner in Rock rapids. I don't recall a Rock Creek SP though. My folks live in Logan which is on the west side north of Council Bluffs. Been across Iowa 2x on my bike (corner to corner) so I'm a little familiar w/ the state. BTW, Good morning, everybody. Got a late start today. spent 2 hours downloading microsoft upgrades on the home computer last night. It was a late night.” 12:44:17 PM 6/25/04 “Up at the crack of noon, eh? ;D” 12:46:24 PM 6/25/04 “yeah, something like that. I was up at 9. Had a 2+ hour insomnia episode from about 1:30 to 4:30 (Guess that would be 3 hours) after going to bed at 12:45.” 12:53:20 PM 6/25/04 “mtnmom2 - I'm in Grinnell, Iowa, at the Grinnell College Library. Rock Creek SP is about 7 miles NW of the campus. There is a lake there, formed by a dam. However, "No swimming" signs are posted due to unknown contamination. They are looking for the source of the contamination. Could this be the start of an effort to contaminate all our water sources? Expect to head south on Sunday. Don't know about computer availability for the rest of the weekend.” 12:58:35 PM 6/25/04 “NS, ah yes Grinnell. Contamination no doubt due to high Nitrate levels from either the fields (fertilizer/herbicide/pesticide applications) or high confinement hog operations. good luck on the adventure!” 1:14:31 PM 6/25/04 “Aero, I feel your pain in painting the house. We're using a solid stain to "paint" ours and it's going much slower than I anticipated. We're changing the color and covering rough sawn wood siding. It's taking forever to brush it on and it will end up needing two coats that way. I'm on my way to buy an airless paint sprayer, hose and spray gun early this evening. Look out! There's a mad painter on the loose. He's got a gun!” 1:51:40 PM 6/25/04 “The fun part was threading the aluminum extension ladder past the power lines coming into the house!! Not to mention climbing up that thing all the way to the top of the second story. If this stuff lasts 10 years, I'm hiring it out next time!” 1:55:38 PM 6/25/04 “yikes, sounds like a job for (dant, da, da, daaaaa) PAINTER MAN! be carefull, Aero” 1:59:42 PM 6/25/04 “I got past that part OK, but the "pucker factor" was high! If I was in Missoula I could paint until 11 pm as light as it stays up there in the summer!” 2:09:21 PM 6/25/04 “morning ya'll” 4:46:52 AM 6/26/04 “sup people....not normally one to be on this thread but hey what the hell....its 530am and i have been awake since 130am after falling asleep at 630pm how #&%!$ed up is that...and i go to work at 8am...im definitely gonne be tired tonight when i go out...” 5:04:07 AM 6/26/04 “Papa Oscar Echo Tango Sierra, You-all-'uns I'm sittin' here wond'rin' how long it takes for the caffeine to kick in. I've never thought to time it before ---” 7:19:46 AM 6/26/04 “Tilt - it all depends on your basal metabolic rate and the route of administration. Mainlining gets there quickest. I'm on my 3rd cup and my thoughts are starting to drift towrd some blood thickening bacon and eggs.” 7:37:04 AM 6/26/04 “The caffeine is already coursing through my veins and I even got the morning constitutional out of the way. Gawd I hate waking up at 6AM on my days off. My internal clock is set to 6AM and I never get to sleep in any more. Somebeeatch!” 7:39:45 AM 6/26/04 “It was only on work days that I wanted to sleep in. Always up early on my time so as not to waste it.” 7:43:01 AM 6/26/04 “I made the best breakfast the other day. I cut some big thick yellow onion rings and put them into the skillet. Just as they were starting to soften I cracked an egg inside each ring. By the time the egg was done the onion started to carmelize but held the egg in. slap that puppy on some bread and let the catsup flow!” 7:43:09 AM 6/26/04 “Wait a minute, you went to all that trouble of cooking an egg inside an onion ring but it was a "puppy" you slapped on the bread and ate? I think I'm finally beginning to understand your website.” 7:48:59 AM 6/26/04 “I'll have to try that. (the egg&onion trick -- not the mainlining caffeine) Running up and down the stairs a couple of times does seem to speed ther process somewhat.... and I suppose one might crush a couple of No-Doz and snort them but I'm thinking that would probably burn like hell, LOL.... Weird dreams last night -- fell asleep watching Salem's Lot, <G>” 7:57:29 AM 6/26/04 “I get these energy drinks from scAmway called X-ess drinks. They will make your hair stand on end and cause you to talk nonstop for about three hours. The facial ticks go away in about six hours.” 8:02:22 AM 6/26/04 “I'm still stuck with the image of that poor puppy. Where are the PETA tt'ers when needed?” 8:07:49 AM 6/26/04 How many carbs would you say? “  ”8:17:19 AM 6/26/04 “I think it should've come back as a Vampire Puppy.... Oh, here's all the caffeine in the world -- including gum, soap and hot sauce.” 8:17:57 AM 6/26/04 “ROTFLMAO so much that I have absolutely no A$$ left.” 8:20:46 AM 6/26/04 “Vampire Puppy Sandwich with Caffeinated Hot Sauce? To hell with that sausage, egg & cheese biscuit.....” 8:26:10 AM 6/26/04 “Morning! ....... a few hours late. Yeah, yeah, I didn't just get up now, so stop thinking those sarcastic thoughts. I've been up since 8am. Is anyone really here on the weekends.” 1:48:40 PM 6/26/04 “Mtnmom2 - Ever think of starting "good afternoon" thread?” 6:24:00 PM 6/26/04 “Snake, is that a suggestion or just sarcasm.” 10:01:09 PM 6/26/04 “Does it have to be an "either"? Can it not be a "both"? Put to a vote, however, I'd opt to choose sarcasm...but it seems to mean spirited and biting. Best left for the fuego threads and not for you.” 8:04:59 PM 6/27/04 “Ah -- The Revenge of the "Get Up!" Thread.... We'll show those Nightkrullers what's what!” 8:10:48 PM 6/27/04 “Those brats are up past their bedtime anyway. Ground 'em all.” 8:19:55 PM 6/27/04 Jump to Page << prev
