Where in the World is Bob Saget?

Just stop with these made up news stories. The next thing you are going to try to tell me is that tornados can't suck up sharks out of the ocean.

Tornadoes can't suck up sharks from the ocean.

Spoiler

But water bombers can suck up SCUBA divers.

Yes, both of my grandmothers made the absolute BEST chicken soup on the planet, and so does my mom.

Of course, they made/make it with dancing chickens, so...

Sadly, the dancing chickens have departed. Along with some other dear friends.

 

[JenniferS]

What I had for dinner tonight...

As far as y'all know, anyway...!

Looks a lot like what I'll be having at Narcoossee's in early November.

 

[JenniferS]

OK, so this is what I really had...

As far as y'all know...

Yup. I love beans on toast.
Actually, I don't like soggy bread, so I dip my hot buttered toast in the beans one bite at a time, but the end result is the same.

Can I get a "slurp"?

 

[donaldtoo]

no, I didn't... Remember I'm not even US citizen or even live there .

Oh yeah, come ALL up in here and stir it up, then claim immunity, and sit back and watch the train wreck...
...!!!!!

I'm watching Ancient Impossible. You know, the time period of Cleopatra's dynasty in Egypt 2,000 years ago was very high tech and advanced for its time. Between the Lighthouse of Pharos (had "laser"-like mirror concentrations of sun light that had the power to sink ships in weapon form) and the Library of Alexandra (which had "automated" sliding doors that opened closed) and the bathhouses that the Roman Empire built (with its steam rooms, cold rooms, hot water, cold water, and so on). The ancient world was on the brink of a technological revolution that didn't happen until the Industrial Revolution of the late 1800's. Just imagine if they pushed further, the world would be a lot different now! I'm absolutely fascinated by these things!

I always fly window next to the wing due of that. Love to see the wing changes, engine changes.. the speed..etc..

English grammar lesson, as per your request:
- due to, not due of.

Yup, that's how we foreigners roll.

 

[donaldtoo]

Alrighty gang, I are ouuuuut...
Sweet Dreams to ALL of y'all...!
See ya' tomorrow for Half-day Friday...!!!

 

[JenniferS]

I had a friend visiting for a couple of hours, and am just now playing catch-up.
Could you tell?

Now I have to tend to my crops and animals. Back in a bit.

Love it! That's something I would do!

 

[PeterAlt]

Yup, that's how we foreigners roll.

Technically, yes, but I don't consider Canadians as foreigners. We're part of the same "club".

In my defence.. I haven't touched Texas in a year.. I was in Alaska.. so my immunity still stands

gotcha! thanks!

"I like the window seat due to the wing changes, engine, etc.."

Not a South Park fan. Or Family Guy.

"Oh my Gosh (sic), they killed Kenny."
That's as much as I'll ever know of South Park.

I know. That's why I made that comment. Later, when I'm bored, I'll find a short clip for you.

 

[PeterAlt]

@JenniferS When you grow up in New York State, like I did, with the open Canadian border just a short drive away, where everyone there speaks exactly the same language and use dollars (C$) as currency, it doesn't "feel" so "foreign".

 

[PeterAlt]

@JenniferS One more thing.

When Seagrams bought Universal from the Japanese company that once owned it, my father said "Good, it's back in American hands!"

I tried correcting him and said, "Seagrams is a Canadian company, not an American company."

He then gave me a dirty look and tried to explain that the economies of Canada and the US are linked; and, therefore Universal was returned to the shared US-Canadian economy.

You know print is too small when college students can't read it.

I was at a board meeting last night and a 3 page handout was distributed on the spot, a tacit I hate. It was cost projections out 10 years on standard copy paper with numbers in red, another pet peeve. Glasses on, no way I could focus in on the numbers all the while the presenter had his on a print out the size of a blue print.

Me being me, I stopped the conversation and chimed in with I know I'm getting old, but I can't begin to read this to follow your presentation. Want to trade print outs. With that the board majority admitted they too could read those teeny tiny numbers either (likely the goal) and we tabled the matter until we could read what we had to vote on. Twit.

I've been sick so I haven't really gone online. As soon as my son sends me the pics from his phone I will attempt to post. Sorry, I am not even going to try to read through what I have missed because my head hurts too much. I sure I would have "liked" everything posted.

Be well my friend.

 

[Gabe1]

Hope you feel better very soon.

Did you get sick while on your trip? Do you think maybe it's an early flu? My grandmother used to always give us chicken soup if we didn't feel well. She was convinced it had divine healing qualities. I don't know if she was right, but I really liked her chicken soup!

Chicken Soup was originally debunked however in recent years there is something in the properties that seem to give the body a different type of fuel to fight illnesses effectively more than a cure.

 

[Gabe1]

Nah, I liked it as a kid. My family didn't do dessert, so that rinky cobbler was a treat.

Other than holidays or a birthday we never ever were served dessert with a meal.
