    Once there was a millionaire, who collected live alligators. He kept them in the pool in back of his mansion. The millionaire also had a beautiful daughter who was single.
    One day, the millionaire decides to throw a huge party, and during the party he announces, "My dear guests, I have a proposition to every man here. I will give one million dollars, or my daughter, to the man who can swim across this pool full of alligators and emerge unharmed!" As soon as he finished his last word, there was the sound of a large splash in the pool. The guy in the pool was swimming with all his might, and the crowd began to cheer him on. Finally, he made it to the other side of the pool unharmed.
    The millionaire was impressed. He said, "That was incredible! Fantastic! I didn't think it could be done! Well, I must keep my end of the bargain. Do you want my daughter or the one million dollars?" The guy catches his breath, then says, "Listen, I don't want your money! And I don't want your daughter! I want the asshole who pushed me in the pool!"

    Thanx Wahine,you know that dispenser of fukitols seemed to help. I need one to keep around the house,haha. Karen-I'm feeling better,just heard some things I def didn't want to hear from the latest PS interview. It is what it is,no sense in feeling like chit over something you can't change. So w/that i'm ready to par-tay! Goldie-didn't page back but think you asked if I had kids. Yes,I call him DH. He's all the kid I can handle. Okay back to listening to music and packing/cleaning. Need more likker for that task,cheers!

    Really had me ROFLMAO at the yoke, Bernie Baby!

    Scoobs, Glad you will enjoy Stella Bella, and sounds like she will have a blast being with you!

    Ohhhhhhh sooooo much fun on de beeeeeutifool beach! Tanx for inviitin us up eurly, Beans! You have some awesome kites to play wid. Wese will all have FUN and den get teeny tiny to be wid ya tomorrow.

    Ok, woke up wid another one, and using warm compress, but while I dwink some strong likker, had to write sumtin.....

    Oh my, I have a stye

    Right at the edge of my eye!

    It hurts like heck

    But I'm not a tech,

    So I'll just sit here and cry!

    LOL, not really crying, but best word I could find. It is supposed to storm today, but need to take my mom shopping, as now we need speakers for dad's new computer. Why didn't the salesperson tell us that???? I mean we were with him for a long time and I kept asking if all I had to do was connect everything and plug it in. Maybe the orig bundle had a monitor w/ speakers, I don't know, but we upgraded to a bigger one, and that salesman should have known! He did know we were replacing a laptop, which obviously has built-in speakers. Sheesh! My dad gets so impatient, so last night when I took my headset over and realized the computer does have sound, this is the soonest I can buy the speakers. He keeps reminding me he is 95, and I let him know I am doing things as fast as I can! When we were having dwinks, I just asked who would like to go shopping with me, and my mom quickly said "I do!"! LOL.

    Scoobs, I hate it that you could not sleep. Hope you can hold up all day and get some good sleep tonight! I was going to try effexor,but I forget which side effect I didn't want....maybe weight gain? BUT now my hot flashes have toned down a lot, and usually in the middle of the night, I turn on the ceiling fan. Wake up a few times, even though I take the TR melatonin every night, but can go right back to sleep. So, no complaints there. I DO remember having it much worse, and hate that you, and some others here, are going through that. (((hugs)))

    Have a good day, Girls! So many dr appts, etc with the girlz here, tomorrow. Hope to keep up with everyone!

    HUgsssssssssssssssssssssss,

    Good morning, Loungettes! Was expecting a full moon type weekend, but it turned out to be pretty tame. Some craziness, but there's always going to be some of that.

    Bernie--Cute boys! I like the Jack and Daniel names for them.

    Beanie--enjoy your trip! Be sure to check in when you get there and make us all jealous!

    Wahine--Don't you just love computer set up stuff? Always, always takes longer than planned!

    Mema--Having fun with the grandbabies must be a wonderful thing! It is so much fun to see the world through a child's eyes. I "rent" my friends' kids occasionally so I can go do kiddy stuff, so much fun!


    Bermie--how about Cab and Sav for the boys? Or Harley and David? Oops, we got trumped by the 6 year old! 6 year olds always win!


    My favs:
    Wine: merlot
    Food: pizza, roast beast with gravy
    Color: blue
    Group: Celtic Woman
    Singer: no one fav, like lots and lots of sigers
    Hobbies: gardening, kayaking, wine making, crocheting, reading
    Motorbike: don't know nutthin about theses
    Saying:

    DorKable--You really take your work seriously! Sign of a true professional. I'm sure you will get it all straightened out in the am. A good night's sleep is a great fixer of things.

    Chrissy--did you ever find out what got put in your coffee? Sounds like something I want to try!

    Goldie--Glad the talk went well. It would be kind of interesting to go to a Preparedness Fair, wouldn't it?

    Mrs. Vino--would you like your clueless DH to get a kick in the behind? I'd be glad to "enlighten" him for you!

    Undy--There's portable Fukitol dispensers behind the bar, just ask one of the tenders, he'll top it off and carry it for you!

    Princess Glitter Sizzle's DOTD is the Time Changer
    1 1/2 oz Citrus Vodka
    1/2 oz Sprite
    1 slice Lemon
    3 oz Soda Water
    3/4 oz Sweet and Sour Mix

    Directions
    Add all ingredients except lemon to shaker filled with ice. Cover and shake vigorously. Strain contents into ice filled collins glass.

    just popping in quickly for a few fukkitols, thanks NM for making them convenient to take a pack out of the lounge.

    it is nice to be in the lounge where people actual like me. my clients are being nasty today and I am tired of the verbal beatings. sadly, I am looking forward to having surgery and getting the hail out of here.

    I just heard from Stella, she has been picked up by the limo that Scuby sent to fetch her.  I sure hope she behaves herself - I think she will as she knows that Scuby can just call me to come get her if she acts up.

    Hello to all my goils here and happy monkeydey. I love each of you - there is no one here that I do not like, I wish I could stay here where I feel loved vs having people tell me that I am "killing them"....I hate people!!

    In tribute for the two ladies on the TNS forum, sadly passed.


    In the rising of the sun and its going down,
    WE REMEMBER THEM.
    In the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter,
    WE REMEMBER THEM.
    In the opening of the buds and in the rebirth of spring,
    WE REMEMBER THEM.
    At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of summer,
    WE REMEMBER THEM.
    At the rustling of the leaves and in the beauty of autumn,
    WE REMEMBER THEM.
    At the beginning of the year and when it ends
    WE REMEMBER THEM.
    When we are lost and sick at heart,
    WE REMEMBER THEM.
    When we have joys we yearn to share,
    WE REMEMBER THEM.
    As long as we live, they too shall live,
    For they are now a part of us.
    WE REMEMBER THEM.

    Hey Dork, cover your eyes! Ya missed me and now I'm swingin a sharp stick to poke with!



    Am sad tonight too at the passing of two BC sisters from the TN thread. Always a shock and then just days apart. The first angel, Laura Jane, died on her birthday. I just cannot fathom it. The other, Suze35, was so fortunate to have just gone on a Disney cruise with her family. Then just a few weeks later she too is angel in the sky. So unfair. And selfishly, now scares me to death. Bernie, thanks for posting the poem. Very touching and appropriate. Have been crabby all evening and poor DH is getting the brunt of my misplaced anger and fear. I know he wishes I would not be on here so much, but I got all my BC sistahs and me!! Even when not posting, I do try to read every day. Pour me a drink boys, in memory and honor of our newest angels.

    I am glad to see this thread, too. I've always had a penchant for good wines and had to give it up during chemo - largely wine tasted like vinegary crap, no matter how expensive it was. 

    Now that chemotherapy is over and my taste buds seem to be back to normal, I am happily resuming what I now call "Vino Therapy."

    Unde, sorry to hear you are in the fukitol mood these days, but had to laugh at your kid. I think most of us have one of "those kind of kids". Hope you are able to shake it off.

    Scuby, sounds like you and Stella are having a good time. Maybe you are mellowing her  out?

    Chop chop Wawa, get dem darn speakers, eh? J/K....I have my laptop to plug in to a huge screen. I lub it! And indeed, so much fun on da beach at da Beans. I can't tell you when the last time was that I flew a kite. So glad you brought those.

    NM, glad your weekend was uneventful (for the most part). How are you feeling now? Preparedness fair, interesting? Could be, but I find the people ever more so! I am thinking now, that my new friend belongs to this "group". And I'm afraid I may have said some things poking fun at the thought of it. Hindsight, ya know! Yikes. Too funny, you offering to enlighten MrV......LOL.

    Juliet, one certainly can not complain about losing weight! Bummer bout the cholesterol tho, I deal with that as well. Just love the SE's we have to deal with. Prior to BC I was in perfect health, now I am a mess!

    Oh Dorkiest, doze people do not nose you and what a wonderful person you truly are, and a funny one at dat. Don't take it personally.

    Beans, just leave to you to put a play on the favorites. You iz so smart and you iz funny too. Wishing you all the bestest of the bestest today and I hope you were able to sleep last night. Me iz here wif you, fighting wif Stella, she won't share the wodka.

    Mema, with you too today as I believe you have sum pointments too.

    Sorry to hear of the loss of two sisters. May their families find peace.

    I am still a page behind, so will try to sneak in later. Couldn't post yesterday, broad band width was still down. Today is BETTER.

    Hugs and lots of luv to me Breasties
