Where in the World is Bob Saget?

OK, all tornado warnings have been cancelled for our area. Still rainin' like the dickens, though. We'll take it.
Whew! Thanks for ridin' it out with me, gang...!

The only electronic device we had were little hand held AM Radio's that had the sound that was equivalent to a tortured cat.

Spoiler

No cats were tortured or even slightly harmed during this post.

Good. No cats were harmed when my brother was learning to play his recorder either.

Spoiler

My ears were, though

We're glad you took no journeys to the land of Oz.

I'd like to know what the toast was that made it a breaking point. Wanna bet liquor was involved?

Only if your bettin' it wasn't.

Yes, you CAN change your name and all your posts and likes etc will stay the same. (I know 3 members who have done so.) You have to go through Steve, it's in the help forum. Unfortunately you just created another account and someone reported you (I'm guessing) which is a violation of the rules you signed off on when becoming a member.

Hindsight is always frustrating.... Ugh...

Thanks, me too.
At least, not via tornadic activity, anyway.

Yes, I've a feeling you wouldn't be in Texas anymore...

Yes, I've a feeling you wouldn't be in Texas anymore...

@PeterAlt, I don't mean to sound snarky, but if you have serious concerns about your account and why you can't use it, the best place to express those concerns is to Steve via a PM, not this thread. We can't help you out, but he can. If you're not happy posting as PeterAlt, then don't. Nobody is telling you that you have to post here and take what you feel is abuse from others.

Oh, yay! Hey look, I build a snowman!

Don't be shy; he likes warm hugs.

I hear the Yetis there are really into disco.

Nope, but, my heart would be.

PUSH is right @PeterAlt . You can of course post on this thraed; no one here is going to treat you that way, and if you want to vent, you can absolutely, but it's still best done in a PM (hint hint). We know another member who went through this and successfully managed to start anew by laying low for a while and changing his username and his avatar. A mod does need to know, though. The Mom is a casual Sageteer, but for the most part, we're left alone. So the best way to contact a mod is through a PM. Though we're here for casual conversation, general nonsense, random memes, and cat photos (well, maybe the cat part is just me...) and everyone is welcome here.

So... about that canoe we mentioned before..

Well everyone but Meg.

Mods can delete, I think that's what he was referring to.

Yeah but not many mods go around this thread due of the speed of posting and randomness.

Unless he has a personal problem with Steve or other mods.

Honey, these may be our last moments on earth, so...
OK, another nervous, lame attempt at humor.

And you guys are all safe and well. Yay!

Should have taken my suggestion.

Proud, proud day for me.

I convinced my 19 year old son to vote. His first time ever.

I am one of those saps that tears up every time I vote. I feel so grateful and privileged for the right. That right came at a tremendous cost.

I sorta played the "Mom card". I reminded Son #1 that my grandfather spent years as a German POW so that he could have the right to vote, that his own grandfather was horribly wounded in Holland to preserve democracy. And I may have gone on and on for a bit. Anyways, the passion in my voice must have swayed him.

When I went back to the polling station, they remembered me ... as the sap who was so choked with emotion, with tears trickling down her cheek after casting her vote.

What can I say? I cry at weddings, funerals ... and polling stations. No shame here.

No shame, indeed.
Freedom is an awesome, cherished, innate human yearning that many have made the ultimate sacrifice for, and should NEVER be taken for granted or squandered.

 

[acishere]

Well everyone but Meg.

Look what you did
