The Chit Chat Chit Chat Thread

Is anyone watching Quantico ? I find myself changing my person who did it episode after episode.

Welcome! It's a fun group to chit-chat with!

I'm not as liberal with my likes as others

But welcome.

I've pretty much shared a lot. Sometimes, not wisely...as hubby says. We all have our personal thoughts on sharing. I would love to see faces behind the voices. I've posted my pictures to Disney along with the DD and grandsons, hubby doesn't want his picture posted. I respect that. I've always been pretty open about my life. I guess I grew up before the internet, and have a lot to learn about personal safety. I should have known better, but I'm learning that not everyone looking at this sight is benevolent . @Songbird76

Unfortunately I totally agree with the benevolent statement.

The Bison at Artist Point when on the menu is amazing. Didn't have it last time, they had Buffalo though. They were yet another high end restaurant that has gone to Salmon and then Halibut. For Florida I wish they had better choices of fish.

Bison is great....it is not much different than beef, but dryer. If a person knows how to cook it, it's great. We lived kind of across the highway from one of the largest bison ranches in the U.S., so I could look out my bedroom window and see hundreds of them in the distance. I kind of took them for granted because I saw them all the time, but my kids have never seen one...at least not that they remember. I'll show them this summer.

I thought bison and buffalo are the same?

Technically no. People call them buffalo, but they aren't really. Early settlers thought they looked like buffalo, so that's what they called them, but they aren't.

Okay, everyone. "Early to bed early to rise @figmentfan423, and @Minnie123. I'm out . Got to get that beauty sleep!

 

[Songbird76]

we do ???

Well, MOST of us do, and if you don't, you should! Mind your manners. Don't make me put you back in your cage!

Sorry, I couldn't get past the show's billboard enough to want to watch it.

It's true...that's why I haven't posted any pictures where you can see our full faces. I have met several people from internet groups and I've never really had a problem except one person who was just ANNOYING and a terrible house guest, back when I was in college. But the rest have all been lovely people. But it took me years to get to know them before we met in person, and I never met anyone in a place that wasn't public. I actually met my hubby on a MUD.

I did too, but not as much anymore. I saw a vest I liked today, cotton and acrylic....it was 79.00 too rich for my blood. I'm a cheapie at heart. And I really like the quality and price of Duluth Trading Company. Very nice material. Probably out of date, but so am I!

I love the DTC commercials.

Here's a photo of the Main Street Electrical Parade circa 1978 with a unit honoring Mickey's 50th Birthday.

They also made a unit for Mickey's 60th in 1988.

I hate today's "fashions", if you can call them that. Way to many prints. I do like the plaids coming in though.

Oh, isn't that funny--I LOVE plaids! HA! I've finally found a kindred spirit. Hubby always chuckles at me when I'm looking at the clothes from L L Bean (where plaid is always king!). Hubby refers to L L Bean as "Plaid World"! I've always been intrigued by plaids and the different tartan clan heritage colors and designs. I've had a number of plaid, wool skirts over the years as well. There's just something about plaid!

 

[MinnieM123]

As far as I know they are all still standing. A tribute to 14th century craftsmanship.

@Goofyernmost , this also reminds me of castles I saw in Ireland some years ago. Take for example, Bunratty Castle in County Clare--that's been standing since the 15th century!!

Our melting pot is haunted. DD took a picture at the table, and an orb was over hubby's head. DD and I were sitting next to each other, in a round booth. We both felt a very cold breeze pass behind us, at the same time. Everyone looked around, and we were in a small secluded room in the attic, part of the old home. No windows, and no vents for cold air to move in. Just what we observed. My real live "ghost" story for the season.

I love your ghost stories, Bets. Maybe you're haunted and attract happy spirits, in a Good way!!

I rarely venture to the Chit Chat forums, but I'm glad I found this one.

And we're happy you found us, too! Welcome!

That hat just does not go with the chainsaw at all.

Since when are you the chainsaw hat fashion expert? I think it complements the plaid, jeans and chainsaw--the height of fashion. Truly, Dior, himself, could not have drawn up a more perfect ensemble for the Fall 2015 collection. This is a fashion forward outfit for Bets while she saws squash.

Would you come and build me a house? @MR FERRET

I don't think @MR FERRET has finished building his summerhouse yet. You may have quite a wait. I do hope you have a roof over your head until he gets around to building you a place to live!
