I just noticed......... eight days ago, Pixies as we know it was 10 years old.

HAPPY BIRTDAY
PIXIES

:cake: :hb: :cake:
NOW THAT CALLS FOR A REAL CELEBRATION!

Gotta admit, though, I wish more of the ol' gang were still around posting. Often wonder about Grumble; Legend, Nikki, Lixy, IowaMan, IAKG, and others.Where they are ... how they're doing? Do they think back and remember us? :(

[Oldfart]

We've been an important part in many lives, and will be for many more.

We're a haven, not a prison.

[Lilith]

What do you get a 10 year old web site? :p

Why don't one of you start a birthday thread?

[Lord Snow]

I'm putting money on Lilith's present being a spanking.

[Lilith]

Actually I was just thinking I should clear everyone's posts counts so we can start all over :p

[Scarecrow]

And to think there are a few members still active who where here from the begining or before. I am trying to remember all of the active members who where here when I joined about 9 and a half yrs ago on Labor Day weekend in 2001. There have been good times and bad times, fun times and sad times and Pixies just keep getting better.

[Lord Snow]

Actually I was just thinking I should clear everyone's posts counts so we can start all over :p

But I'm not even at the 3k mark yet *whine*

[PantyFanatic]

..... There have been good times and bad times, fun times and sad times and Pixies just keep getting better.
That's it! What he said is what we are and what Pixies is to a lot of us. No question now that a Pixie Birthday thread needs to be anchored and an anniversary celebration of this magnitude needs to extend to all the special people that has cone through our lives at this turn.




Actually I was just thinking I should clear everyone's posts counts so we can start all over :p
Actually I was thinking you could get your fingers broke for that. :whack:

:roflmao:

[AZRedHot]

But I'm not even at the 3k mark yet *whine*

Me, too, neither! I didn't know Pixies was 10 years old. We should get it a really cool new bike (http://mytrailerpark.com/DildoBike/DBike_files/2.jpg) --10-year-olds love bikes, right? ;)

I've been here since 2004...7 years now. I've had a lot of fun with the hubby and shared the photos here; I've had my spirits lifted and my confidence boosted by the folks here; I met a great love here; I was comforted by the kind people here who knew him, too, when I lost him. A kind-hearted bunch of pervs here that I am forever grateful to know.

[Lord Snow]

Well, that bike would definitely keep a woman in her seat no matter how bumpy the ride.

[AZRedHot]

If I could get an office chair with that setup, it'd be skirts every day and a smile on my face, disgruntled employee no more! :D

[Lilith]

Perhaps a PM to those members you are missing to let them know of the celebration would be a good idea. Everyone likes to be invited to a homecoming!

[Lord Snow]

Tonight seems a good night to get a little drunk. Goldschlager to the rescue!

[wanderingsoul]

I'm back after a long hiatus and I'm just wondering where everyone went???

[dicksbro]

I think they're all out looking for you. :shrug:

Seriously ... welcome back. Glad to see ya!

[Oldfart]

I found this in a motorcar museum in New Zealand.

Does anyone know what this is and what it's use is?

It looks like a spark plug with a tap attached. Weird.

[Fangtasia]

That would be a

Champion X “primer cup” spark plug :) used in Ford Model T

[Oldfart]

Thanks Fang. Do we know the function of the "tap"?

Google just answered. Again, many thanks.

[dicksbro]

Kinda' like an automotive electrical faucet. :)

[Oldfart]

I wondered if it was a way to depressure individual cylinders, but it's just a priming device.

[PantyFanatic]

That would be a

Champion X “primer cup” spark plug :) used in Ford Model T
I would be

impressed! Very good, lady. :thumbs:


My first guess was it being a plug for some manner of gas fueled (non-carburetored) combustion engine such as propane. :shrug:

[Oldfart]

One of our group thought it may be for coal-gas fired vehicles from WW11.

[PantyFanatic]

Kinda' like an automotive electrical faucet. :)
That sounds like the two bureaucrats with one telling us they have taken over and have the situation totally under control with all their resources being brought to bear and everything that needs to be done is underway, ...... while the other one screws the light bulb into the faucet. :rofl:

[PantyFanatic]

... it may be for coal-gas fired vehicles ....
coal-gas = methane? :confused:

[Fangtasia]

I do like to search things out *L* I knew it was definately a spark plug, nothing like modern ones, so looked up Antique spark plugs

I found the info HERE (http://ourhistory.ca/2010/01/05/ol-sparky/)

[Oldfart]

PF,

Coal gas is a mix of hydrogen, CO and Methane, originally a by-product of coking coal for steelmaking. It was in use in Sydney up to the 70s, where it was bypassed largely by "natural gas" a topped petroleum gas.

In Britain during WW11, some civvy service vehicles were converted to run on coal gas (usually held in balloons attached to the roof of the vehicle). They were mainly delivery vehicles whose routes exceeded their fuel rations, but some doctors etc had them fitted to their cars.

Well spotted and researched Fang.

[AZRedHot]

I think I finally got my humidifier situation sorted...my guitars are going to be much happier.

[gekkogecko]

Yes, they will be.

[AZRedHot]

I had an exhausting day, and I don't even know why. But I'm wiped.

[GusAspar]

A friend gave me some red orach plants and I need to get down to my allotment to get them planted.

[Fangtasia]

I start increasing hours at work tomorrow, fingers crossed my arm behaves!

[jseal]

Fangtasia - Good Luck!

[Oldfart]

I trust the arm, I hope the rest of you behaves.

[Lilith]

I'm heading in to work. 3 weeks left.

[Aqua]

We've got sunshine forecast for the next few days and I am excited about that.

[Lilith]

The Argentinean Tango to Cake's Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps works :p

[AZRedHot]

Not really sure if my new song is ready to have the training wheels taken off for tomorrow's open mic, but I think I'ma do it anyway.

[dm383]

I finally got my new camera delivered yesterday! Excited, much. :D

DM

[Oldfart]

"Not really sure if my new song is ready to have the training wheels taken off for tomorrow's open mic, but I think I'ma do it anyway."

It sounds like an ideal place to suck it and see. The song young lady!

[dicksbro]

I finally got my new camera delivered yesterday! Excited, much. :D

DM
That's terrific!!

We'll be looking forward to seeing some great new photos! :thumbs:

[Fangtasia]

I've been looking at a a new SLR camera....I now now what i'm gonna get...and at least 1 lens i want....Soooooooo exciting...can't wait, but gotta *LOL*

Then i'll be a major pic whore! I'm snap happy enough now!

[Oldfart]

What lens?

[PantyFanatic]

.....Then i'll be a major pic whore! I'm snap happy enough now!
:nod:

[gekkogecko]

Not really sure if my new song is ready to have the training wheels taken off for tomorrow's open mic, but I think I'ma do it anyway.


If you're ready, it's ready.

[Lord Snow]

Fang, there is nothing wrong with being a pic whore. Especially if they're photos you can share here.

AZ, I'm sure your song is terrific. I would say sing it and see about having a recorder of some kind so that you can play it back to here any changes you might need to make. No matter what I'm sure you'll kill them at the open mic night.

[AZRedHot]

Thanks, gents. Always appreciate the vote of confidence. :kisser:

[Fangtasia]

The lens is for macro photography, which i really love and want to explore more. :D

[PantyFanatic]

What you've done with macro so far has been fantastic. :thumb:

(but dressing a poor guy up in silly clothes and taking his picture doesn't count :hair: )

[Fangtasia]

*LOL* Volunteering PF??

[dicksbro]

I didn't sleep well at all last night. :(

[Oldfart]

Too much chilli or not enough tiredness?

[jay-t]

At one of the renn fairs I go to we have won best of show for our booth now 3 yrs in a row! :line:

[Fangtasia]

My new camera may be closer to being in my hands than i realised!!

[Pita]

I had a wonderful day off with my honey-man looking at possible ideas for what I will wear at our wedding. Just got to exercise and starve for the next five months. :D

[Coaster]

Hmmmmmm......... no rain for the last few hours!!!! Yippee...... beginning to think I was in Seattle or London!!!

[gekkogecko]

At one of the renn fairs I go to we have won best of show for our booth now 3 yrs in a row! :line:

[Pita]

Today is my Joe's birthday and we had a lovely day just hanging around the house doing this and that. :brows:

[Oldfart]

:rockon:

It's probably only with jay-t that you could get away with "iron on".

[Fangtasia]

Woooohooooooooooo....The battery is charging, then i just gotta learn how to drive it!!

[GusAspar]

Under all the weeds this morning, I found some lettuce. :)

[Oldfart]

Cos they were there.

[PantyFanatic]

I've been looking at a a new SLR camera....I now now what i'm gonna get...and at least 1 lens i want....Soooooooo exciting...can't wait, but gotta *LOL* ....Woooohooooooooooo....The battery is charging, then i just gotta learn how to drive it!!
:yikes: That was a quick leap.

[Lord Snow]

I went to pick up the turn signals I ordered and they were chrome instead of black. Now I have to wait for the black ones to come in. Grrr.

[gekkogecko]

Just remember that using your turn signal is *not* giving information to the enemy!

[Lord Snow]

I always use my signals. Hence why I want to replace the ones I broke.

[Fangtasia]

:yikes: That was a quick leap.
:D:D Yep

Not exactly the one i was looking at, but for it i would have had to wait until March, and i'm all for a wait, but not that long *LOL*

So Bilbo picked me up a very similar one which i an absolutely rapt with, i still havent turned it on *L* But will today

[Pita]

In exactly five months from today, I will be his ball & chain. :nod:

[Oldfart]

You'll be the chain to his ball?

He couldn't be any luckier if he won the lottery.

[Pita]

Oldfart :x:

[AZRedHot]

Sooooooooo glad it's finally the weekend. This week was at least 4 months long.

[Lilith]

In exactly five months from today, I will be his ball & chain. :nod:


It would be more fun to chain his balls but whatever floats your boat :p

[Fangtasia]

Well i've had a quick play...with the camera. OMG OMG total awesomeness. And that was just in point and click mode*L* Ooooooooooooooo let the practising begin......

[PantyFanatic]

......Ooooooooooooooo let the practising begin......
Run ctitters, RUN! :yikes:











:doorpeek:

[AZRedHot]

I daresay PRIVATE videos are the best out there...I think we'll be getting some more.

[Oldfart]

"ctitters"?

Mr Freud, Mr Freud, he's doing it again!

[Pita]

I got zero studying done today but I did get all my housework chores done. :thumbs:

[PantyFanatic]

".....Mr Freud, Mr Freud, he's doing it again!
Yes Mr Fraud, I do that all the time. :nod:

[Lilith]

I'm off this morning to take Mr. Lil to have his cancer spots removed. Hoping he does not hurt too bad after.

[Oldfart]

Can he afford to lose that much weight?

[AZRedHot]

Waiting for the roofer this morning to get an estimate; said he'd be here between 6 and 9; and you know because I was up at 6, he'll be here at 9. :(

[PantyFanatic]

You can get a 3 hour window!?!?!? We are lucky to get "morning" or "afternoon" for ANYTHING. :hair: Of course morning schedules are further out as afternoons totally screws up the whole day. :mad:

[gekkogecko]

Waiting for the roofer this morning to get an estimate

Roofer? You need a roofer? Or maybe a roofie? (It puzzles me why you might need a roofie).

Or does that just mean you're topless at the moment?

[Oldfart]

Waiting for the roofer this morning to get an estimate; said he'd be here between 6 and 9; and you know because I was up at 6, he'll be here at 9. :(

You misunderstood. Between jobs, he wants a 69.

[AZRedHot]

We got wildly divergent estimates today, so we'll need a third to make sense of it. The good news is that we will not need a whole new roof this minute; we've got a few years yet.

And for those scoring at home (or wondering if I did), he did not trip my trigger. I never get the hot repair dudes...except that one cable guy last spring, but he was already very taken, as indicated by the phone call to his gf when the job ran long.

[Aqua]

I've been thinking a lot about hitting up an open mic night. Now I need to find one.

[AZRedHot]

Just sent back edits/notes to my tattoo artist on #3. It's gonna be cool!

[Lilith]

I'm doing the right thing despite my tendency for selfishness.

[Lord Snow]

You're sharing the picture of you in those grey silky panties?

[PantyFanatic]

Soooo, trying to get back in to see my Doc today, arm is not coping with back on full duties *sigh* Not sure where i go from here

[Lord Snow]

Bionics?

[Jax]

I'm nervous that I may have gotten involved in a work situation that is far more difficult than I had imagined.

[Oldfart]

Bonking a newly clingy staff member?

Having a new clingy staff member bonking you? :shrug:

[Oldfart]

Having a new clingy bonk staffing you?

[PantyFanatic]

....... Not sure where i go from here
Ya take yas camera and go to people like Steve Parish Publishing right there in Qld, and magazines and Chamber of Commerces and anybody graphically promoting OZ. :nod:

[Lilith]

I am going to go have fun with my girls. I am tired and just want to laugh and drink.

[Oldfart]

Can we come out and play with the girls too?

[gekkogecko]

Large numbers of both snapping turtles & black rat snakes come into the center while I was away for Balticon. And some who left, as well.

[Oldfart]

Death is dead.

[Lilith]

My fingers are soooooo spicy from chopping peppers for some white chicken chili I am making for a family where the hubby is terminally ill. I think some cheddar broccoli corn bread, some wine, and a huge honkin' chocolate loaf cake will round out the dinner. If I don't eat it first.

[wyndhy]

don't touch your eyes!

[PantyFanatic]

.... or anything else! :yikes:

[Lord Snow]

I've done that. Chopped all my veggies for my chili late at night, woke up early to get it started and hadn't washed all the jalepeno juice from fingers. Burnt the hell out of my eyes.

[sodaklostsoul]

:( the leaves are stuck to my car from the hail.

[Drakorsha]

been down in the dumps coz my girl has been busy with other guys...

[dicksbro]

I sure liked the Nissan Sentra that we drove over to Indianapolis in. Comfortable and quiet with mileage for the whole trip around 32mpg. :thumbs:

[Oldfart]

been down in the dumps coz my girl has been busy with other guys...

Sorry Drakorsha, that doesn't fit the definition of "my girl".

Time to cast the net again.

[PantyFanatic]

What he http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Happy/happy-054.gif said.

[Lilith]

My sweet mother (shut up PF), sent me this insane black belly dancing hip scarf thing for Zumba. Zumba is Latin dancing :p

[Oldfart]

We have just seen off houseguests ( after 2 weeks), just in time for my daughter to crash here for 2 weeks.

I've grown so used to it just being Mrs OF and I, it's strange.

[jseal]

I feel your pain!

[Oldfart]

I then have a week's freedom, then a mate and his wife will be here for 2 weeks, less about 5 days in Kakadu.

[Lilith]

I guess I should cancel my surprise trip then :( :p

[PantyFanatic]

My sweet mother (shut up PF), sent me this insane black belly dancing hip scarf thing for Zumba. Zumba is Latin dancing :p
"Zumba is Latin"?
Maybe we should check the evolution of 'Latin'. :cool:





Mother always knows best. :nod:

I guess I should cancel my surprise trip then :( :p
Only if it is at the same time as my planned surprise trip. :D

[Lilith]

ha ah the OldFarts would spend the whole time trying to keep me from killing you. Does Oz & US have extradition?

[AZRedHot]

I decided to move up my 40th birthday-present-to-meself ink a few (5) months...tomorrow's the day!

[Lord Snow]

I anxiously await the pictures.

[Lilith]

How did the ink go AZ???

[AZRedHot]

How did the ink go AZ???

It went well--only 2 1/2 hours after all, which wasn't bad. I just got some pictures of it today. I won't be posting them here (plausible deniability must be maintained, so I don't show publicly viewable tats here-Ex-Rep. Weiner, take note), but as you have the proper security clearance, you will see it soon in a different venue. :)

[Lord Snow]

I went bowling this past evening with a friend. First time in over 10 years. I still suck, but managed to break 100 on both games. I was even able to get a few strikes, which surprised the hell out of me.

[Noah]

I have Sookie & Eric the oscars....tommorow to be joined by Bill the oscar *LOL*

[Oldfart]

We can make exceptions.

I have Sookie & Eric the oscars....tommorow to be joined by Bill the oscar *LOL*

3 way!!!!!!

[scotzoidman]

I see that I managed to miss both Pixie's 10th & my own 10th anniversary at Pixies as well.

[dicksbro]

I think seeing you back with us, Scotz, is enough reason to throw another party.

:line::line:

[Lord Snow]

I see that I managed to miss both Pixie's 10th & my own 10th anniversary at Pixies as well.

Where have you been?

[sodaklostsoul]

I see that I managed to miss both Pixie's 10th & my own 10th anniversary at Pixies as well.
I miss alot too, but we always come back home.

I miss alot too, but we always come back home.
Well STOP that! :spank:

SUMMERTIME

Happy Summer everyone in the Northern Hemisphere!

I thought in summertime, the living was sleazy.

[Oldfart]

It is, we just haven't told DB yet.

[jseal]

I thought in summertime, the living was sleazy.
It can be, if you do it right! :D

[dicksbro]

I stand re-directed. :)

[Oldfart]

Ladies, gentlemen and PF of Pixiedom, we are comparatively mainstream.

This from the OZ national broadcaster's newsroom via Reuters.

Peeping Tom hides in portaloo


A man suspected of hiding inside the waste tank of a portable toilet at a yoga festival in the United States has been arrested on charges of unlawful sexual contact and invasion of privacy.

Luke Irvin Chrisco, 30, was arrested in the Colorado town of Vail, west of Boulder, after police there stopped his vehicle on reports of a man illegally begging in the area.

"An astute officer realised that he resembled the portable toilet suspect," Boulder police said on Friday (local time).

Boulder detectives were contacted, and after interviewing Chrisco, he was arrested for the portable toilet incident.

Police said the strange event occurred June 17 at the Hanuman Yoga Festival when a woman using the facility noticed movement inside the storage tank and asked a male bystander to investigate.

The man told police he saw someone inside the tank covered in a tarp.

A security guard waited outside the toilet for 10 minutes until a shirtless, barefoot man with numerous cuts on his back and legs emerged covered in feaces.

The guard tried unsuccessfully to apprehend him as he ran from the festival grounds.

Boulder police chief Mark Beckner said in a written statement that his department received a dozen tips on the suspect's identity.

Chrisco faces one count of unlawful sexual contact and one count of criminal invasion of privacy, both misdemeanours.

He is being held on a $US1,000 ($953) bond for the begging charge, and a $US1,500 bond for the alleged toilet offences.

It's a great idea, that committed couples can life-bond. It'll add a whole new income stream for divorce lawyers.

[Lord Snow]

Well, I did quite a bit of shooting today with some buddies from work. Had several 9 mm pistols, one 9mm carbine, an ar-15, a couple of .22's, and two .357's. It was fun, until we all started getting headaches from the ringing in our ears LOL.

[Oldfart]

9mm carbine?

Which kind of carbine, the AR conversion or one of the purpose-built firearms?

[Lilith]

Did anyone wound themselves?

[Lord Snow]

No wounds. The way it's set up is it looks more like an assault shotgun than a rifle. I'd have to ask my friend to find out more about it.

[Lord Snow]

BTW, Lil.......you have lovely legs in your avatar.

[Oldfart]

No wounds?

It obviously didn't have the drama of The Gun joint in LV.

[Lord Snow]

Granted it was in the backyard, but I've grown up with a very healthy respect for weaponry and in the use of safety precautions. The people I was shooting with also follow the same precautions.

[PantyFanatic]

Non-biting pistols? How odd. :confused:

[Lilith]

BTW, Lil.......you have lovely legs in your avatar.

TY- Those were before Zumba. Amazing the difference a little rump shakin' can make.

The 12 y/o, in the continuing hope of getting some help with college, took another step this weekend. http://www.pic4ever.com/images/999.gif

The 2011 YMCA National Gymnastics Championships (http://www.foxtoledo.com/dpp/sports/Gymnasts-rocking-SeaGate-Centre) was held on just the other side of the state and made it realistic to attend this year. (Last year was in San Diego :( ) Ending with 7th place in senior Level 5 was very rewarding after qualifying for Nationals at many meets and a lot of road trips this last year.

[Fangtasia]

Congrats to 12yr old PF!!!

[Oldfart]

Well done by the grandkid and the grandpa.

It's going on 7 years.

I'm sorry, Lil.

Also sorry to hear that, Lil. Our hearts and prayers go out to his family and for the saddness you must feel.

[Fangtasia]

[Lord Snow]

My shoulders hurt and I don't know why. Not sure if I slept wrong or if it's from when I dumped a 240 lb teenager out of a inner tube in the pool.

[AZRedHot]

I'll give you a shoulder and neck rub, m'lord.

My brain woke up at 10 a.m., but my body lazed in bed for another half an hour because I could. I love holidays.

One of these days I definitely have to take route 66.......I swear my intentions are purely innocent.

I swear my intentions are purely innocent.

Well that's disappointing! :spank:

[Lord Snow]

My mechanical abilities are actually fairly limited. My dad, however, has over 20 years experience in the field professionally. 30+ if you include his teenage years helping his father in the local garage. I do know enough to do my own basic maintenance. I'm also very good at following directions out of a book.

What part are you waiting on?
Gearchange shaft. It was supposed to be in last Thursday.

[gekkogecko]

So Aqua is waiting oh-so-patiently to get the shaft.

[PantyFanatic]

Again?! :yikes:




:rofl:

[Lilith]

I went to a funeral today where there were funny stories told about a guy trying to help his best friend take a piss. Made everyone howl. Peeps better laugh at my funeral.

[PantyFanatic]

I'll see to it. ;)

[Lilith]

No Clowns!!!!!!!!!

[Lord Snow]

I got to drive the ranchero to work......and the starter locked up. Now it's back to the parts store for a starter and solenoid.

[PantyFanatic]

No Clowns!!!!!!!!!
Isn't your wake planned to be in Sarasota? :D





















It is now. :rofl:

[AZRedHot]

I couldn't get my new specs this afternoon because of an attempted carjacking (complete with gunshot) at Walmart half an hour before we arrived. I've never seen so many cop cars in one place before.

[PantyFanatic]

Was that at another place where "it can't happen here"? :confused:

[AZRedHot]

This is Arizona, where we just love, love, love guns. The more, the better. After our Congresswoman was shot at a Safeway in January, along with 18 others, 6 of whom died, I honestly would be surprised if anyone in this city still believed "it couldn't happen here" about anything.

[PantyFanatic]

Truly sad reality of the specie. :( Unfortunately not an innovation nor a monopoly. :boohoo:

[Lilith]

Isn't your wake planned to be in Sarasota? :D


It is now. :rofl:

Actually- That is where my peeps are buried. I am from Sarasota.

[Oldfart]

I wasn't going to out you on that one.

[Rhiannon]

I know AZ that was my home town it happened and was very shocked

Well, at least it was a half hour *before* you arrived.

[Lord Snow]

It would have been more convenient had it been a half hour after they left though. Don't criminals know anything about common courtesy?

[Oldfart]

Trust these criminals to jump the gun.

[Lilith]

Tequila hates me.

[PantyFanatic]

But the worm loves you. :bite:

[Lord Snow]

Tequila hates me.

Why do you say that? Did your clothes not fall off?

[dicksbro]

Are you sure they weren't just having a sale on donuts?

(Seriously, we're just glad you're okay.)

[Lilith]

Tequila hates me.

Turns out I have food poisoning. :(

[Oldfart]

Tequila is a food?

[sodaklostsoul]

Tequila is a food?
The worm was. :wink:

[gekkogecko]

Well, yes. I mean, how could it be otherwise?

[Lilith]

Hopefully it is food poisoning. The other options are not to my liking.

[dicksbro]

I understand. How can you tell the doctor you've got a worm suck in your throat? :yikes:

[Lord Snow]

My ranchero is back on the road. Second new starter worked like a charm. Now I have to get the dash working properly.

[dicksbro]

We've got my wife's Chrysler in the shop for what we're pretty sure is a new starter. Darn things. :(

[Lord Snow]

Starters are generally fairly cheap and easy (at least for the Ford v8's). It's more or less just an inconvenience. Make sure they change the solenoid at the same time. It tends to be either one or the other, so might as well do both. Kind of like timing pumps and water belts.

[PantyFanatic]

I think that must be what my car needs. I've never changed my timing pump.










:rofl:

[Rhiannon]

just back from two day trip and exhausted as one of the days i had migraine from helll ugh

[Lilith]

I could choke out a teenager.

[PantyFanatic]

And you have another coming strong. :roflmao:

[Lilith]

It is #2. He's 15. You know the age when everything sucks and moms are dumb asses.

[PantyFanatic]

It is #2. He's 15........
:faint:










I guess :wobbly:...................... if Pixies is 10 :shrug:




(time flies, even when you're not having fun.) ;)

[Oldfart]

At least he's not cursing you in Latin.

[Lilith]

Right. The eldest does that. This one took Spanish, and he knows I know Spanish :p

[Rhiannon]

fighting a migraine and its winning

[PantyFanatic]

Right. The eldest does that. This one took Spanish, and he knows I know Spanish :p
Be glad it wasn't German. Even nice things sound meaner in German. ;)

[dicksbro]

Maybe if he did French, you'd think he was complimenting you. :shrug:

[Oldfart]

He could have done mime, it's quiet but the gestures are filthy.

Get better soon, Rhiannon.

[Lilith]

This is page 333 of this thread. I love threes and three, threes is my favorite.

[Oldfart]

Nein?

[Lilith]

3 nines tickles me too

[gekkogecko]

The ASL interpretation for the song "Bend Over, Greek sailor" is absolutely hilarious.

That just warped my brain for the rest of the morning. 04:15 here.

[Lord Snow]

First time in a long time I went home early from work. Dehydration is a mean and sneaky son of bitch.

[Lilith]

Feel better Lord Snow!

[Lord Snow]

Still working on it, but thank you.

[AZRedHot]

Bummer, m'lord. Hope you're feeling better now. I'm extremely prone to heat exhaustion. Beyond rehydrating, you know what helps me feel better? Olives. Straight from the jar. I have no idea why, but it works like a charm. I don't know if it's the salt or what.
