Great . . . now i have to cancel my order

Oh, I was hoping you would take a picture of you in your new duds!

 

[betty rose]

Substitute coffee for Tea and you have it spot on

Coffee is my choice of beverage.

 

[betty rose]

Heh, heh . . .

I'm always prepared for winter. Just last evening, I was looking longingly, at all my different colored down vests, etc. all folded nicely up on the shelf. Taking a few moments, and looking at nice winter things, is so cheerful.

ha, ha!

Science fiction.

@Cesar R M, hubby removed Norton, and I'm still being knocked off this sight....but , no others...any more ideas? I can't get a new computer, hubby had to just replace his. We have a retirement budget.

You can have my fish. I'm not a big fan so there you go.

I'm not a fish fan either, but I did have some fried halibut in Canada that I really loved and still crave...that was over 20 years ago.

Does your friend think she's a good driver? My ex-bf from college was the WORST driver and he thought he was so great. My brother and my friends all refused to get in a car with him. He was cross-eyed and I don't know how he even managed to get a regular license as he had no depth perception because he could only use one eye at a time. He'd start turning left when there was a car coming, thinking he had plenty of space. He also had no peripherals, so he would miss things like one way signs. Awful.

I'm like that since my stroke, and haven't driven since. I do take the written drivers test for id purposes only. I'm glad our area has a little bus that will take you to the store. Now, I really feel old!

Well, I also found a blog from April of this year I think it was...and it was raving about the oreo bon bons at Cape May Cafe. Is it possible that enough people complained that they brought them back?

Oh, I hope so. I sooo want to try these.

 

[betty rose]

We know you wont.
you will probably wear it secretly for Mrs Ferret's amusement!

She knows she's bad, but I don't think she realizes how bad she is. She evidently failed her driving test three times. She always offers to drive, and I always say no. She's so super sweet, but has no driving ability. The amount of dents in her car tells it all.

Funny!

You are reminding me of my sister.. not that bad as the person you mentioned.. but she cant park for crap. And her car always ends full of dents

We must have y'alls share down here in Texas...

They are cute , even if stinky!

 

[Cesar R M]

Science Fiction, I assume.

What a shame, considering how broad Science Fiction is.

 

[Cesar R M]

So sorry to hear that but word of advice--never ever move your car until info is exchanged. If you find the police need to be called and have moved from where it happened, it becomes a he said/she said situation. Learned that the hard way. Take care of yourself.

alternatively, take photos of the position and THEN move.

Hubby was driving and I was in the passenger side, a guy flew through the light (he was on drugs, legal...for back pain) to make a long story short, he broadsided us on the passenger's side. I had to be cut out of the car (it's called the jaws of life out here), and sent to ER. My collar bone on my right side is now near my neck , and I have pain. Doctor's tried to put it in place with no success. He sued us. And lost, but what an ordeal. I don't like to get in a car any more. People are driving on drugs because we have the "legal" State ones. I make jokes on occasion about the legal drugs. It's how I cope. I've always said laughing is better than crying.

how the hell he sued you if he broadsides YOUR car?

It is my belief that all aquatic animals are "bottom feeders" in one form or the other. It's what they eat from the bottom that makes a difference. When you think about it, how many fishermen bring home a big ole catch of perch, etc. that they caught when the fish attempted to feed on worms.

A step beyond that, does anyone consider what is used to fertilize vegetables that we eat. Sure we wash off the outside, but what about what makes up their structure? As a culture it seems like we tend to overthink everything all the while intentionally ignoring the bigger picture. Want to really gross yourselves out, think about what it is possible that is mixed in with the food that cows, pigs and chickens eat to sustain their lives. So the moral of the story is what possible difference is there between a catfish and any other animal that we consume.

I agree, but sometimes you just don't like the taste!

You know, I have no idea why....except I learned he was in another wreck and tried to get money out of another driver. I think it's his MO. Some people just sue to be suing, to see if the insurance company will pay. In this case, we are a no fault state, and we both happened to have the same insurance company that was willing to pay for two new cars (with depreciation) . And not have court costs , except traffic court. I'm not a strong person, and was terrified thinking about a real "trial", so I sucked it up and let it go. (sorry for the Elsa reference)

to be honest, you should have standed your ground. Who knows how many people have been abused by this person.

hopefully that dbag is now dead by an accident.. or in jail for fraud.

@Cesar R M, hubby removed Norton, and I'm still being knocked off this sight....but , no others...any more ideas? I can't get a new computer, hubby had to just replace his. We have a retirement budget.

My best bet is to reinstall windows and see how it behaves.
And I mean a REAL clean install, not an upgrade.

I cant say much unless im touching the computer and see how it behaves.
But if its throwing blue screens of death or random errors.. It might be hardware related (the most usual culprits are faulty power supply or damaged memory modules).
