Someone necessarily help to make seriously posts I would state. That is the first time I frequented your website page and so far? I amazed with the research you made to create this particular put up incredible. Magnificent activity! Jones sabo the actual concept http://www.h10h.com/vb/showthread.php?p=818351#post818351
Well I'm off take care and have yourselves a wonderful evening. I do hope you all have fun with the rest of your day. =^_^=
Ooh my, bribe perhaps? Or maybe something more? Was it a random folk or someone in a proceding?
It was after a mediation that he was there to "observe". They never said why he was there.
Some dude just handed me a $100 bill at the courthouse. =O
Umm, did he want something in return??
No, but that's the first thing everyone has joked about so far. Some old guy.
Well, maybe a random act of kindness or he mistook you for a bum! LOL Either way, enjoy!
Well Jingles, they do say that simple is sometimes the best. =^_^=
Okay Michele, well it's always a pleasure and I never got a chance to thankyou, So thank you, I really appreciate what you have done for me here in the Klatsch room. You added the little comfy bed for me next to the coffee table. lol =^_^=
@Jingles: Lol, too funny and cute. haha WD-40? Really?
@MicheleG: That's not it at all, I'm sure you full of it, (Creative energy and imagination that is :-P) The only thing is that right now most of your energy is being channeled to heal your limp and aside frm that I happen to spend a bit of time reading Sci-fi novels and playing video games. Habbit I picked up from an Ex Bf.
I am an old sci-fi fan, too. If you haven't yet, read "Ringworld" by Larry Niven.

On this delightful WD-40 note I must bid my co-authors adieu for another fine day.
Stay tuned! What will tomorrow's thread header photo be? Animal? Vegetable? Mineral? Young? Old? He? She?
(The suspenders is killin' me!)
lol, well catching up with all that's happened with the Klatsch and our story line I see that last line made was that his wife morphed into an animal face with whiskers and that his leaves were mushrooms so thought I'd pick up from there. ^_^
No problem! I guess I'm just Sci-Fi inept, because I didn't understand any of it, although it sounded really good! I just wanted to work in WD-40 somehow, silly and simple, that's my style. :)
As Richie gazed into his coffee cup starting blankly at the image of a wet nose and whiskers, he adds WD-40 to his grocery list...
(get it?? wet nose and whiskers, WD! I crack me up sometimes)
Awesome, Glad to see there are others who share my pain. lol
As Richie began to realize what those leaves were his smile began to fade and quickly grew into a frown which then became a face of horror which only lasted for a moment for his began to contort and twist till it became an expression of gleeful, estatic ecstasy and the very room he was in transformed itself into a black canvas covered in stars and vast space!!! The floor uplifted itself and was made into a rainbow which spread light years ahead of Richie. As Vapor saw this Vapors' thoughts began flow. "My, My, My master sure seems pleased at the gift I have given him this lovely morning." Just then vapors' wrist collar began to flash which signals that the Elders are summoning vapor to the meeting of Elders. "A council meeting at this time?" Vapor thought. "Vapor began to shudder and was taken aback by feelings of Dread and intrigue.
Whoa....
and here I was being SO prosaic with my Ritchie Rich thing.....I simply have NO imagination! I am outclassed yet again!
Is this the Wine Awakening "Vapor" behaving now? Hope so. Who else would use the name "vapor" in any context.....?
Meow*
HA! My nephew just got his Air Force posting – Hawaii. I'm sure SF life there is pretty tame.
Really? Who else is a banker here?
Chicago Lady
SeaBee (I think)
Tazer
wendy
There may be others, but that's what I have on my list. And now you!
And me...long time banker with a sordid banking past...on the dark side of banking!
Gotcha!
LOL, don't know about everyone else but I can say that in my company CNN is one of the few sites they allow us to visit, though they removed the post button image you can still access it with TAB. ;)
Banking.
Man, we attract alot of bankers here. Happy to have 'em all!
it's the dastardly, malcontent, District, Manager. lol Nice combination btw. loved the string.
@ queenie:LMAO!!! Woow, really? now that's truly a funny story but all jokes aside I have to say that Sir B stated it best, after all it was a huge gamble on his part not knowing how'd she react seeing how it's only been 2 weeks and well even though she laughed at it, she did apologize and if he can't accept that and live with it, then he wasn't the right guy in the first place. ^_^
@all: Check back with all soon, DM is coming back to my office, @_@ Incase I can't return due to time restraints may you all have a wonderful day and do enjoy the evening. *high fives & hugs for all*
Awesome, so glad to read Kat as enjoyed all of our story telling antics and I'd be more than thrilled to share but well the day as finally died down, but what makes it all the better our ever so loving DM decided today was a good day to pay us a visit so it's been a day full of either clients or walk arounds and "discussions" with the boss. Y_Y *sigh* what a lovely day but oooh well at least this just means he won't be visitng for at least 2 weeks. XD
Don't knock it too hard. There IS a paycheck involved.
DM?
Designated Manager?
Dirty Martini?
Dastardly Malcontent?
I'm doing pretty good, thanks for asking. =^_^= Today has been surprisingly busy for a tuesday, then again it is the 31st. >_>
What do you do for a living where the end of the month is significant for you?
Suddenly Richie is not feeling so well...his smile fades away as he feels like he might pass out...what did his dear wife put in that tea, besides the funny leaves?? She was acting strange yesterday leaning over on the bed like that, sporting a seductive smile that he hasn't seen in many years....
Suddenly he realized they weren't tea leaves at all, just finely chopped pieces of mushroom. The seductive smile on his wife's face began to morph into a wet nose and whiskers. Did he get dosed by his beloved pet, vapor?
I grabbed some coffee with my BFF this morning and she has a slight dilemma. She's been dating a guy (we'll call him Mike) for a couple of weeks and last night they had "relations" for the first time. Apparently during a crucial moment, Mike yelled out "Who's your daddy now, b%$@&"....and BFF busted out laughing. Not a giggle, not a chuckle but a full on guffaw complete with a snort. She's prety sure Mike didn't buy her apology as she was still giggling and she's not really sure what she should do now. Any thoughts?
I think I'll pass this one on to SirB.
Somehow I don't doubt that Sir B has experience in this area.

There are many words that are shorter than inter course. I just got out of detention and back in good graces with Kat. I'm not going to push my luck ... today.
Couple of weeks? What took so long?
Seriously, though. That's what happens when you say stupid stuff, you run the risk of getting laughed at. Risk taken, failed, aftermath.
Those were my thoughts exactly but I was too busy laughing to tell her that. He seems like a very strait-laced guy so it is doubly odd...and hilarious.
Considering that this was the first time they rode the Beef Bus into Tunatown together, "Mike" reeeeaaeallllly put himself out there with the comment like that not knowing the response he could get. Some ladies may be into that talk, but some may not and that was a risk he played. She aplogized and that is about all that is needed from her. If the relationship goes downhill from that moment, its was doomed anyway and tell her to stock back up on AA batteries.
BFF takes offense at being referred to as Tunatown (she prefers Happy Valley) but she says the ride on the Beef Bus was good up until that point so she may give it another go.
If it was a good ride, by all means try it again. Maybe when the crucial moment comes along for her, she should bust out with some crazy line.
"TO INFINITY, AND BEYOND!!!!!"
"Red Roover, Red Rover, COME ON OVER!!"
Just a few thoughts, maybe others have more ideas.

We had a seriously hilarious moment along those lines but I can't tell the story here.............dang, it was fuuuuuunneeeee!
Srry to read about that nasty fall but at least you ended up better than humpty dumpty. ;) =^_^=
@ All:Well a top o' the afternoon to ya'll. Hope your all doing well on this rather pleaseant and joyful afternoon.
Hi! How've you been?
Thanks! : )
Saw Margin Call last night. Pretty good flick and a bit scary as to how true to life it really is.
Well glad to read that your doing well aside from the casual gimp but at least there are girl scout cookies and with their magical taste they always seem to just make other things not matter as much. XD
XO
lol, stories about homespun Ironchefs? That'll be quite interesting to do. Well I'll be more than happy to share my kitchen antics. ^_^
Queenie:*HUGGS* OMG, Queenie, I've missed ya! Where in tarnations have you been? I thought you were going to be stuck in that pic forever. @_@ Welcome back.
Sirius, Sirius, where for are thou, Sirius! They finally let me out from under the hair drier. Those curlers were killer!
Since Kat made a special request of us to do more story telling, we'll all gather 'round while you share with us an antic of yours.
Yes sirisly. LOL!!! I c wut you did dar. XD haha Well according to the itinirary (spellcheck?) it's Cozumel, keys, and one other spot, can't recall atm. @_@
Been to Cozumel on our Royal Carribean cruise in 2008. Like Florida it is flat to the point of being surreal. San Miguel has LOTS of tourist traps, however. Nice but beware.
Good morning class! Queen, please pass the Thin Mints thank you.
MicheleG, hmmmm sore knees and gorgeous BF in one sentence...
WD – Was that a dog bone crumb floating in my coffee??
AleeD – Of course, Odie will do a CAT scan, he's been practicing.
Hugs to our resident Smarty Pants!
*hugs back* Seriously, I hope you are doing OK! And btw, I'm surprised AleeD didn't beat me to that one!! ;)
Thanks! I guess she's "out" for the moment. Sign me: "Still Gimpy but getting along OK."
In & out like a fad born plick.
bow chicka wow wow
I couldn't bring myself to "go there" with Michele's fall. That can become a PITA if you don't take care of yourself. I fell like that once, too. It was a year before I could kneel without pain.
Now back to our regularly scheduled shenanigans.
thanks sweet thang! Hugs to you, too!
)))))hugs back(((((
"In & out like a fad born plick.
bow chicka wow wow"
-No such thing
LMAO. So you like the forn plix of the 70's? ~_~
As he gazed into his tea cup Ritchie thought the leaves were telling him to take a trip.
The smile on his face said it all, those leaves were of the whacky type and he was in a blissful state, now where did the misses hide the brownies??
First thing to figure out is Where AM I? Those were fabulous brownies but they made him forgetful, or was that indifferent?
And which truck out there is his? Big Blue or maybe the hot pink one? Pet er Built? Kenworth? Freightliner? Does he have any cargo? Fuel? Actually he forgets that it's the yellow bicycle..............
Can we have a story about today's picture, please? I like when you do that.
The ole truck driver leaned back further in the cafe booth thinking to himself how long can I haul fruit.
"Refill your coffee Thermos before you go sweetie"
"Thanks dear, yes please and a doggie bag for WD too"
We are on it! :)
Just before he got into costume and went on the air, Captain Kangaroo always enjoyed his last cup of coffee for the day.
You all are making me very happy.
Where is Mr. GeeenJeans when you need him?
I have fond memories of Mr. Moose.
I look at that picture and see a grandpa holding a dainty cup while he has a tea party with his granddaughter. I wonder if they have crumpets and finger sandwiches?
Good Morning everyone, Hope your all doing well on this lovely though. I'll checking in here and there for the next couple of weeks. The first week is always hectic here and then next week I'm going to a cruise. ^_^
Siriusly?? Where are you cruising to??
It might be fun to do a story about homespun Iron Chef competitions. My sister was telling me about one she was involved in @ her apt. complex. They did one about every quarter for bragging rights.
My friends who used to organize that for us moved to LA and I miss it so much!
Good morning, sunshines! I have Girl Scout cookies to share!
Good morning all.
How is everyone doing today?
Hectic day here, so I will be in and out.
OMG – I Busted out Laughing !!!! Almost woke him up !!! How is everyone today ?? Have to find a place down here – :-) real quick ...
Howdy ho! Present and more or less accounted for! Sore from a hard fall yesterday. Glad I didn't break anything (including my backside).
Holy Fall Guy, Batman! What happened? Are you sure you're ok? We can hire Odie to give you a CAT scan.
Thanks! I tripped over the garden hose while walking across a very hard CEMENT driveway. Fell hard on my knees before I hit the ground all the way. Hate when that happens.
I'm just sore in the knees but other wise fine. My gorgeous BF was out watering and heard the commotion and came to my rescue. You can call me "Limpy and Gimpy" today.
I'll see your Prodigy and raise you a couple Pixie's. Name the movie its from for a bonus.

No bonus for me today.
Morning everyone! Quiet Klatsch today...
