    A mother was working in the kitchen listening to her son playing with his new electric train in the living room.

    She heard the train stop and her son saying, "All of you sons of bitches who want off, get the hell off now, cause this is the last stop! And all of you sons of bitches who are getting on, get your asses in the train, cause we're going down the tracks."

    The horrified mother went in and told her son, "We don't use that kind of language in this house! Now, I want you to go to your room and you are to stay there for TWO HOURS. When you come out, you may play with your train, but I want you to use nice language."

    Two hours later, the son came out of the bedroom and resumed playing with his train. Soon the train stopped and the mother heard her son say, "All passengers who are disembarking the train please remember to take all of your belongings with you. We thank you for riding with us today and hope your trip was a pleasant one. We hope you will ride with us again soon."

    She hears the little boy continue, "For those of you just boarding, we ask that you stow all of your hand luggage under your seat. Remember, there is no smoking on the train. We hope you will have a pleasant and relaxing journey with us today."

    As the mother began to smile, the child added, "For those of you who are pissed off about the TWO HOUR delay, please see the bitch in the kitchen."

    OMG I'm missing so much here.

    Bernie another good one.

    Julie u alway come thru for all of us--Wow like that sand.

    OK what is it with all these drinks with REAL flowers, I didn't know u could really eat flowers of any kind well except mint twigs for mint Julip-but I never did, And I used to like sake a while ago remember drinking it in certain restaurants so I prolly use it in a drink but no flowers thank you.

    Kat is it all right for u'r DD to wait for the surgeries or is she making the decision. I mean if the Dr said OK well OK--she is sure dedicated--u've got to be proud of her for her commitment alone--Wow

    Goldie u never answered how u r feeling--I'm assuming ok but u'r a quiet one about u'rself. U don't complain about anything.

    Cyn let me get this straight---u already have a B&B now a new one is coming to stay with u? Tell me who tis is that u are so nerveous about? I mean u opened u'r home to everyone and his brother why is this one so different.?

    Lara I'm watching Killer Mountain hahaha my brain is fried with all these crazy movies. hahaha I don't recognize one actor, but it is in English so I'll watch it. The very best scary movies aren't in English but I can't follow the words on the bottom, can't see them as well. So I wait til they reake it here and it's never as scary.

    Oh My Julie, all the eye candy and then the likker in the cop porn! LOL. Speaking of popcorn, well I MEAN cop porn, how does everyone like theirs? I used to just like it with butter now that I am older and weirder, I now like it with olive oil and italian seasoning. Sounds soooooo strange, but its really good!

    Bernie, that was so funny, I emailed it to my dad....he replied "LOL". Hope you are doing well!

    Julie, I think I will TAKE that towel off him....I mean...sheesh....can't we see the goods????

    Cami, My DD2 will see the neurologist and decide with him when she needs surgery, but IF possible, she wants to wait till she is finished with her commitments. Not sure when the next appt is.

    Took my mom to her dr and her bp had gone down a little, but thats cuz I made sure she took it the past 2 days. Now to try to make sure she takes her meds for 7 straight days then see what her bp is. Then actually found her 2 new prs of shoes...yay! We ate out and shopped a bit and it was fun. BUT I was going to work outside when we got home, but the heavens opened up....storms, thunder, tons of rain. Even had to bring my furbabies inside. SO...taking it ez!

    OK Cami, you see your dr next wk I think. Hope you are doing ok but if not be sure to let them know or go in sooner, ok? I know, I know, you don't wanna talk about it anymore, but heck ya know I worry bout ya!!!!

    Becks, Did you know there is a film crew in Banning for a couple of days? Kristen Wiig is there, and others. I really like her and miss her since she left SNL. That was AWFUL about that python.

    Okey Dokey I hope everyone has done their humping today....if not....I think I saw some Tenders and Wenches just standing around waiting to be put to good use!!!! LOL. We need another good blowout PARTAY!!!! Yeah!!!!!

    Cheers! Chairs!

    Hola!



    Hey, when can I move in Cyn? LMAO!!! Banning's on fire. Got Walter the parrot in his travel cage to be safe.



    Wahine, I didn't know they are filming. I wonder where.



    Jules, can you imagine walking along the beach and you look down and see that man laying there in the sand? Ha!



    Congrats on the weight loss Lara!



    NM, honestly do you think you would be happy running the show? I know I wouldn't. I can barely get through my day as it is. Would the stress be good for you?



    Alright, we need to go for a drive and see how close this fire is.



    Hugs to any I've missed!

    Becs that fire better be far away---don't go blindly into the night ---just watch your news and be careful.I really thought there was a lot more rain this year so fires should not br going anywhere, but maybe u'r area hasn't had the rain like the rest of us.

    Oh I got those jams that my GF from CA is making today0--odd onestoo--absolutely delicious even Joey and Marty liked them Marty got a recipe goin in his head for one of them and Les has an idea for the other one--They liked the beef jerky but it was to spicey for me. So I let her know I thought they were going to be horrible--cuz I would tell her and instead told her the truth. She's now as I said a Kook and a cook.

    Well my Katie-Kat is getting ready to settle down so she's my boss---So catch u later and hope everyone is feeling decent.

    Oh Becks, those fires are awful. Saw what you posted, and my friend has also been posting pics from her driveway, of the fires. And already homes are gone...very sad. BE CAREFUL!!! Here is what my friend posted about the filming in Banning. Anywhere near you? (Hope the smoke/fires don't interfere with the filming) Oops read the link, and they wrapped up the filming today. They weren't allowed to post the pics of Kristen Wiig though, per the production crew.




    Banning goes Hollywood!  Film crews have been in town the last two days to shoot a movie starring Kristin Wiig, Will Ferrell, and Joan Cusack.  Some of the movie's scenes featuring Wiig were filmed at two locations in town.  DETAILS AND PHOTOS HERE --> http://bit.ly/11MSaM7

    An older lady was somewhat lonely, and decided that she needed a pet to keep her company. So off to the pet shop she went. she searched and Nothing seemed to catch her interest, except this one ugly frog.

    As she walked by the barrel he was in, he looked up and winked at her! He whispered, “I’m lonely too, buy me and you won’t be sorry.”

    The old Lady figured, what the heck, as she hadn’t found anything else. So, she bought the frog and went to her car. Driving down the road the frog whispered to her, “Kiss me, you won’t be sorry.” So, the old lady figured what the heck, and kissed the frog. Immediately the frog turned into an absolutely gorgeous, sexy, handsome, young prince. Then the prince kissed her back, and you know what the old lady turned into?

    The first motel she could find. (She’s old, not dead)!

    Good morning, Loungettes!   Thanks for all the feed back about the Clinical Manager position.  I'm still thinking long and hard, will keep you all up to date. 

    Cammy--good point about being easier on the body.  Another item on the list of pros. 

    Juliet--thanks for the vote of confidence!

    Goldie--I have been praying and asking God for guidance on this.  And I will be putting the pros and cons on paper, too.  Thank your for the good luck cocktail, I've had sake before, it's a Japanese drink, hard to describe.  Love the idea of using fresh berry puree, definitely could use blueberry in it!

    Wahine--I can understand your DD2 not wanting to let anyone down, but she does need to prioritize her health right now.  But it is good news that the surgery can wait.  I've heard that bamboo is impossible to get rid of once it takes hold, hope you can keep it under control!

    Juliet--yum!

    Adey--Good morning!

    BBBBernie--LOL!!!!

    Juliet--Hooray for 0% disabled!

    Cammy--I wonder why movies aren't as scary in English? 

    Juliet--Now THAT is some grown up popcorn!

    ORLA--Congrats for enrolling in school!  Never too late is right.  Proud of you!  And the weight loss is terrific, too!

    Becs--the different stress is another item on the list to consider.  If I would be happy in a middle management position is a question I am contemplating as I think about all this.  Be careful around the fire!

    Cammy--sounds like fun food! 

    Juliet--LOL!!!!!

    Princess Glitter Sizzle's DOTD is

    Hop, Skip and Go Naked

    1 oz vodka, gin or whiskey

    3/4 oz lemon juice

    3/4 oz grenadine or raspberry syrup

    6-8 oz of lager beer

    Ice

    Combine everything but the beer into a shaker tin, and shake vigorously. Pour into beer glass full of ice, top with lager beer, garnish with a lemon wedge and enjoy!

    Kat, I’ve never had Sake, can you explain what it tastes like, or not really? My lavender grows quite well and does re-seed, and that Autumn Joy can be quite the spreader too. Could you possibly scare your DD into having her surgery? I mean, what if she does more damage, and the surgery has to be more intricate? Or harder on her, and maybe cause her to be in worse shape and then she won’t be able to do all the volunteer work that she likes to do. She is putting herself in more danger. Well you said she will wait IF possible, I hope so. Glad your mom found some shoes.

    Nice to see you Adey, come by more often.

    Bernie, I had heard that train joke before, but of course, couldn’t remember the punch line, so got another laugh out of it.

    Yay for Julie, back to being the fabulous nurse that she is! NOW YOU BE CAREFUL, HEAR??? Here’s some G&T cop porn for you to sailabrate with. Cute frog joke, of course we thought she was going to turn into a frog, didn’t see that one coming.

    Ha ha ha, no Cami, I’m not a complainer. I feel fine, but nothing has changed, so therefore nothing to mention! I did do more spaghetti sauce yesterday. I was going to can it, but then did some searching and found out you can’t do that with a hot water bath. So very glad I looked, or I might have give my DH and myself botulism. And there are lots of flowers and foliage from others that can be eaten. Violets are a common one and dandelion leaves.

    Lara, you are right, never too late to go to school. Congrats on the 16 lbs. What is it you guys do on Pinterest?

    Becks, did we find out how close the fire is?

    LOL, at first when I read that you got the jams from your GF Cami, I was thinking PJ’s, then you said they tasted so good!!!!!

    LOL Cyn, you are too sweet, inviting everyone to live with you.

    NM, I have heard the same thing about bamboo. And glad you are giving this new position and some good thought. Any chance you could do it temporarily, and then make your decision? Hmmmm, Hop, Skip and go Naked, somehow mixing beer with vodka just doesn’t sound right. How long do you have before you have to give them an answer?

    Going to attempt to make some zucchini relish today, have to see if I have all of the ingredients. I definitely have the zucchini! So I need to Hop, Skip, get Naked and get in the shower!!!!!

    LOL Julie....that ending was a surprise to me too! Glad you are cleared to go back to your regular job!!!

    Lori, LOL, I thought the same thing when I first read Cami writing "jams"....remember how we used to always comment "great minds think alike"! Glad you learned that canning that way would not work for the sauce BEFORE doing it! Whew, don't want you getting sick like that! We used to eat begonia blossoms...they really are good....before it opens into a flower. SO besides all the fruit we could eat walking around the neighborhood as kids, we could also eat begonias. Good thing we were told the neighbors oleander was  POISONOUS...who knows if we might have tried it otherwise. Hmmmm....sake is usually referred to as a Japanese rice wine , but doesn't really taste like wine, but that would prolly be the closest thing it tastes like. Ok, looked up some stuff on sake... 

    Sake or saké (/ˈsɑːk/, "sah-keh")[1][2] is an alcoholic beverage of Japanese origin that is made from fermented rice. Sake is sometimes called "rice wine" but the brewing process is more akin to beer, converting starch to sugar for the fermentation process.

    In the Japanese language, the word "sake" (酒, "liquor", also pronounced shu) generally refers to any alcoholic drink, while the beverage called "sake" in English is usually termed nihonshu (日本酒, "Japanese liquor"). Under Japanese liquor laws, sake is labelled with the word "seishu" (清酒, "clear liquor"), a synonym less commonly used colloquially.

    Sake can have many flavor notes, such as apples, bananas, melons, flowers, herbs, spices, rice, chestnuts, chocolates, dry grapes, sherry, caramel sauce, etc. The flavor of apples comes from ethyl caproate, and bananas from isoamyl acetate. These two constituents are contained in many types of sake, such as ginjyoshu.


    Hi Lara!


    NM, glad you are taking time making that important decision! Lots to consider. Oh I know, that bamboo is taking hold. And I was so glad when I found some and planted it...now I have a lot of work to do. Then will just keep some in large planters. NOT in the ground. IT is a low variety, only about 2' tall, so I didn't realize it would spread like that.

    Becks, Hope they can get those fires contained. That is awful. More fires than other years, right? My friend lives not too far from you, so she posts pics too, and omg it has gotten so huge. Stay safe, and I hope your parrot does okay!

    Hi to EVERYONE!~~~  I gotta go get ready....DH and I are going to the eye dr...have a great THIRSTDEY! We won't be thirsty, thanks to NM, as we Skip and Go Naked!

    Good Morning all u wonderful women.

    Lara I already have SyFy on a bunch of cazy movies today--I'll watch them.

    Goldie I'm glad u'r OK and if I had u'r body I would do everything naked, it would make me happy.So go girl.

    NM I know this is a hard decision and I also know u will think it thru and make the right one. When I was asked to be supervisor I first said no, cuz I didn't want the responsibility, but when I thought about it I thought maybe I could help make it a better invironment to work in so employees would be happier and work better. So I took it. I know totally different in jobs, but that was my reason and it did entail more work and dealing with more people but it was fine for me.

    Kat I know u'r dgtr will make the right decision look who she has for a mommy.

    Cyn we're all moving in how's that.? U won't even notice most of us.

    Julie please be careful no more happenings to u. Got it:

    Hey Adey--still hangin in there.

    So who did I forget OH DORK, DORK, DORK mmmm she'd better get her coolie back here.

    The weather has been great with some rain but unusual for August.

    Becs watch carefully, These stupid fires are horrible.
