your birthday present is Rich King?

No. Even if you have your computer on and here on your screen, after a certain time of inactivity it will show you aren't online. Somebody asked about that in the Help section but I'm too tired to look for it.

That's fine, I'm not too worried about it. This new fangled technology is a mystery to me. HAAHAH

Hahaaa...!
I had a buddy in high school that had an orange '72 Gremlin with a 304 cubic inch displacement V8 engine in it.
That puppy had a bit of pep...!

Mine was a V8 also, and it was zippy.

WHY? I love peanut butter. I don't understand.

Updating my post here at 6:55 a.m.--I just read the reason why they're doing this, in Spirit's thread.

I'm not a big fan of Ghirardelli's ice cream and sundaes but the one with peanut butter was fairly decent. It's too bad for the fans of that sundae, especially sad if it make Beaches and Cream more crowded with people trying to get their peanut butter and ice cream fix. I love the No Way Jose at Beaches and Cream.

Sounds like he may be comin' 'round...AWESOME!!!
Fortunately, I married another Disnut...!!!!!

My husband likes the food, so I've got that!

That's so romantic.

A/C for the eighties? I don't even put mine in until it hits 90 for the first time. Have I mentioned how much I love Disney in the summer.

I rarely turn on the A/C in the summer, I love the heat. I will turn on fan for sleeping at night though. Hubby wants the A/C on though. When it gets super hot here in Wisconsin I just think briefly of winter and those sub zero days and just try to soak up the heat.

Oh my. Sympathy "like". Very sorry to hear.

Thanks.

I'm not a big fan either but the point of the matter is them taking away peanut butter. It's like your local supermarket taking away peanut butter because 1% of the population has peanut allergies.

I stopped at Little Caesars to pick up pizza for the boys. Hubby offered to take me out, but truth is I am too battered, bruised and bloody to go anywhere. And mangey, definitely mangey.

So, despite the fact that I don't like pizza, and I especially don't like Little Caesars, I had two slices of that new bacon wrapped crud.

Honestly, it was pretty darn good.
Pics taken after I had already eaten my two slices, so you'll just have to believe that I had it with milk, of course.

I have dibs on all the edges. Yummy!

Oh, and the physical injury tally -
9 nails ripped off at or below the skin line, one ginormous blood blister on my left pinky, a pinky toenail totally torn off, and a large plank of wood dropped on the toe that I broke twice last summer.

I'm thinking I've earned a 20 minute nap; and that my brother owes me $55 for my full set of tips and Bio gel manicure.

He sure does.

My breakfast this morning....I made banana bread French toast (drizzled with caramel sauce and powdered sugar) and bacon.

I know, I don't see the point of taking it away just because some people have peanut allergies. I might feel different if I or someone I travelled with had an allergy, but then again I would probably just stay away from it. It just seems like so many people have allergies to stuff these days. When I went to school I only knew of two kids that had allergies, one was allergic to bees and the other was "allergic" to chocolate (turns out his mom made that one up because she didn't want her kid to eat chocolate).

Look at all the big cars!

Love those big old cars.

Not quite sure why you quoted me with this but I knew that already. And I'm not sure what you mean about eavesdropping. Are you singling me out (because I read in every section) or are you talking to everybody?

No, it was just a continuation of your discussion with Betty Rose. Additional information that she might not have known, so to speak. So the answer was directed toward everybody, your post was just the catalyst for the discussion. We must find a word in the english language that is not so vaguely specific as the word "you". It has the joint duty of being all encompassing and seemingly specific at the same time. For example, if I were to say "you would not believe how good looking I am". That means I am proudly announcing that the world and every "you" on the planet is included in that informational piece. I will admit though that that little three letter word, has cause a lot of misunderstandings, especially on the internet.

Thanks for more info, I'm really in the dark on all technical things. My husband (an engineer), takes care of all that stuff. I'm just a stupid typist .

Too FUNNY!! OMG--I can't believe they used that cheezy commercial all over the country at the drive-in's!!! I miss drive-in's -- there's hardly any left anywhere. I think it was about maybe 12 years ago that we did find one somewhere, but it wasn't really the same. The reason was that instead of those big, glompy speakers that used to hook on to the driver's side door, they now had you turn on your own car radio to hear the audio. If I go to a drive-in, I want the entire retro experience!

We still have a drive-in just a couple miles down the road from my house. $12 a vehicle for two feature films.

I wish we had one, but with a double feature I would be asleep before the end.
