Hey! I can't see the monkey!!” 7:44:43 AM 8/09/02 “So, is this the twelfth monkey yet?” 7:56:30 AM 8/09/02 “AERO! it's you, it's you! what's up :-) i was just wondering where the heck you'd gotten to. i'm stretchy today, thanks, LOL... i can see the monkey...weird. well, suffice it to say that it's adorable, and those monkey-makers don't know their arse from their elbow. heheeee!” 7:57:02 AM 8/09/02 “hiya, Tilt-o-rama :-) it's #7, we're working our way up slowly but surely. we used to have a dog that had an identity crisis (he and all the monkeys thought maybe he was a monkey), but Tarpy's mom adopted it. i had a chance to get another monkey yesterday, but two of them in two days would just be waaaayyy overwhelming. it's just not done, you know. LOL!” 7:59:26 AM 8/09/02 “Yeah, I'll have one cup of green tea on most mornings, but there's less caffiene in that then a can of soda... (by the way, I gave up soda too. I drink fruit juice instead).” 8:01:37 AM 8/09/02 “I'm holding out for Jambo the Halloween Gorilla!” 8:01:56 AM 8/09/02 “umm...what does that have to do with monkeys, Artex? tehehe. i like green tea too...have you ever had Tazo green tea? it's soooo good...and those people take tea Really Seriously. and i mean REALLY! :-)” 8:03:40 AM 8/09/02 “i love drinking black tea in the mornings during the winter” 8:06:07 AM 8/09/02 “He gave up coffee a month ago, so by now he's totally obsessed with coffee.” 8:06:57 AM 8/09/02 “All this clean living is going to be the death of you! What do you call a group of monkeys? a peck? a gaggle? a mob?” 8:09:42 AM 8/09/02 “a group of monkeys? the official term is "Trail Talk."” 8:12:41 AM 8/09/02 “HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!” 8:15:11 AM 8/09/02 “Hmmm... A clowder of cats A kennel of dogs A pace of donkeys A brace of ducks A knot of frogs A gaggle of geese A murder of crows A drove of pigs A warren of rabbits A wedge of swans A rafter of turkeys A pod of whales A dazzle of zebra A trailtalk of monkeys Works for me! <G>” 4:50:12 PM 8/09/02 “I did a search on cat pictures because I wanted to try to post a picture here (a first for me). BUT the websites had all these ads, some risque, and some pictures inappropriate for kids, so of course my kids were trying to look over my shoulder for the cat pictures. And all the pop-up ads! It is a down and dirty world out there!” 5:53:18 PM 8/09/02 wtf “i work 2nd shift. why am i up already?” 6:45:40 AM 8/13/02 “Demonic possession?” 7:27:17 AM 8/13/02 “no thanks, trying to cut down.” 7:28:20 AM 8/13/02 “mmmmmmmm choc. almond coffee mmmmmm” 7:36:31 AM 8/13/02 “hahaha... Demonic Decaf!” 7:46:45 AM 8/13/02 “yep, i draw the line at one glowing red eye.” 7:53:18 AM 8/13/02 “That's It! I'm going back to sleep. Wake me when the terrorist infrastructure is smashed or whatever.” 8:00:45 AM 8/13/02 “Gosh it is so late! Where is everyone? Rise and shine, put the oatmeal on!” 4:01:24 AM 8/14/02 “I'm waiting.......are you all going to sleep all day?” 4:13:37 AM 8/14/02 A Good Night's Sleep And I'm STILL Tired “Some friends came from Akron yesterday and I took them Mtn biking at the place I've been hiking. Holy Moly...blazeing down some of those trails at light speed scrambling my brains from the rocky terrain...only to have to walk the bikes on most upslopeing trials because of the steepness. Boy am I tired and acheing.” 4:21:07 AM 8/14/02 “oatmeal... BLECH” 4:24:05 AM 8/14/02 “Uhhh...I think that I would have a lot of fun watching that Buddur, but the idea of speeding down a rocky trail on a bike! Are you on a mission to really hurt yourself? I've seen kids wipe out on sandy pavement and scrape their faces up really badly. I guess you know how to fall and protect yourself. Well anyway glad you had fun and didn't hurt anything else this month so far.” 4:29:29 AM 8/14/02 “Tilt, you must not be making it right...haha.” 4:30:53 AM 8/14/02 “Yeah, I prefer GRITS, so I guess I don't have room to talk, LOL” 5:08:05 AM 8/14/02 “Looks like another hot day today, 90 or better. The other day we broke a high temperature record. Within limits speeding down a trail is fun, as long as you don't fall off. Buddur's right after a long, hard mountain bike ride, the next day you can feel like you played a game of tackle football. It's good stuff though. I'm going for a bike ride now before it gets really hot out, see ya later.” 6:08:20 AM 8/14/02 “Yep, enough reading TT and getting uneducated. Time to bicycle to the supermarket for some fresh donuts.” 6:18:52 AM 8/14/02 “Hey I thought you were gone hikin', or was Adakhiker going hiking and Nowslimmer was staying home?” 6:34:25 AM 8/14/02 “I never could tell those guys apart. Watch out for That Sudden Stop, Biker Dudes!” 6:51:12 AM 8/14/02 “I'm still getting ready. Whenever I leave for three months, it usually takes a momth to get ready. Like yesterday I had to try to get a bank to straighten a failed automatic payment and remove late charges. I had to write a letter since a medical insurance payment was not credited to my account. New lenses for my eye glasses were not ready yesterday. Each day more things pop up. I have to suspend my athletic club membership until my return(to save money), find a title so that I can junk an old car, etc. And I have to be sure that all bills can be paid while I am gone. With all my daughter's stuff for college, I'm having trouble getting everything in the car. As soon as I get frustrated enough, I'll jump in the car and go as is. What, with TT, a civil war history forum, daily work-outs, and one-pocket pool games, there is not much time for packing. But I'm going! If you have not guessed, I'm a professional at procrastination.” 7:20:43 AM 8/14/02 “Yup, my favorite career.” 7:23:50 AM 8/14/02 “I'm procrastinating about getting up. Be there when I'm ready. Slept all night and feel like I was awake all night. Need autumn! Need cool air. Head for the Sods!” 7:31:30 AM 8/14/02 “slackers.” 5:24:45 AM 8/15/02 “I was up early but my cable was out. Man, those withdrawels are much worse than the coffee ones. So Tilt, do you still have toes? Feed the grits to the ferret, he might like that better.” 5:36:44 AM 8/15/02 Who? 5:38:56 AM 8/15/02 “Good morning Paul. Or Nowslimmer. Or Adakhiker. Hope your day is fun.” 5:51:27 AM 8/15/02 “Actually, I think the Weasel prefers raisins, but she'll take whatever she can get” 6:11:10 AM 8/15/02 “I was up at 3:30 EDT with stuffy nose because of allergies. Arrgh!” 6:36:19 AM 8/15/02 “School days, school days. First day of school here, sending two off today, one to second grade one to high school. Packed the third off to the dorms at UNM earlier this week. :)” 6:44:53 AM 8/15/02 “That is quite a span of ages, Pathman. My youngest is going to second grade too. Tilt, raisins? They go good in oatmeal, nyah nyah. Geobeet I know what you mean. I think our area is clogging the doctors offices looking for claritin and nasonex.” 7:00:22 AM 8/15/02 “I like this thread. It's like meeting all my pals at a coffee shop in the morning. Keep it rolling and we may eventually break the record for the most posts.” 7:06:32 AM 8/15/02 “Hi Rich! How's the coffee today? You know, I used a basket filter like you do, and put coffee in it, tied it shut with a twist tie and put it in a pot of boiling water, and the coffee was pretty good. A little silty but good. So I am going to do your method with a rubber band around the cup for one coffee and the filter tied shut for two or more coffees. Now I only have one coffee filter type to take on trips.” 7:13:26 AM 8/15/02 “AGAIN with the oatmeal? I've Been SLIMED! Since the price of unblended Kona went nuts a while back, I'm on a french-roasted nameless wonder kick.  I think I may be backsliding soon, LOL” 7:38:31 AM 8/15/02 “yer glasses are fogges up tilt” 7:50:09 AM 8/15/02 “yer glasses are fogged up tilt” 7:50:18 AM 8/15/02 “Hi Lyndy, Sounds like a good plan with the coffee filter tied with the twist tie so if I need to make more than one cup I'll use that method. The other way works pretty good for one, but just be careful taking the filter off the cup when it's done so you don't spill any grounds in the cup.” 7:53:24 AM 8/15/02 “What Rich? Me be careful? You know my parents named me Klutz, but after many accidents, much notoriety, and when the slang use of the name became known around the world, they took pity on me and renamed me Lyndy.” 5:13:17 AM 8/16/02 Jump to Page << prev
