Here I am advocating safety in the Road Rage Forum, and now you had to go and point out this feller is running with scissors in his hand.  Skiddles, you must be a mother too !!:shock:

Steve! 


You had gas in your nostrils you silly!  Go back, buy a pack of nabs, and do a Re-Sniff! 


This stench is not an occasional stench...It is a constant stench.


Sandra,


The Crackah would like to formally invite you to join us in the playground.  We do not judge you on your ability to use colors or smilies in your postings. No subject is too mundane for us (Just ask Euson :P).  On the playground, you are encouraged to talk about anything you'd like and if it's confidentiality you seek, we won't tell a soul!!!

If y'all haven't seen it, you need to jump over to the Road Rage forum and see Skiddles dawg drivin' the convertible. 

Skiddles claims the animal is properly protected with a stylish seat belt, we'll have to take her word for it, can't stand to see an animal unprotected.

ATTENTION PLEASE:  


As "unofficial" playground monitor, I feel that it is my duty to make an important public service announcement:


(For those of you who have had well water all of your lives, you won't need to read the following...)


For those of you who are "imports" from another area and have had water provided by a municipal system in a previous life, this may save your sanity at some point this winter.....


IN CASE OF AN ICE STORM, RUN WATER IN YOUR BATH TUB!


A quick explanation:


ICE STORM = No power = No pump for running water =


NO FLUSHING!


If you have a small bucket by your tub full of water, you can just dip some water out of the tub, pour it down the toilet and voila! Flushed!


Now for us country bumpkins, this is just inborn knowledge - sort of like putting a lamp in the well house to keep the pipes from freezing, but you'd be surprised at the number of folks I met last winter who have suffered through the perils involved with a family of five using a toilet for 4 days and not flushing! Oh the horror!


A side note: It is not imperitive but might be handy to also run a pitcher or two of water to have on hand for tooth brushing, hand washing or other H2O emergencies!


One day you will thank me for sharing this knowledge.

Yep, you are right about the mom thing. Safety first Steve, I would hate to see you slip and fall then... oops, you poke your eye out kid! ;)

Cracker, thanks for the reminder about the water. I'm filling my tub now and got my bucket ready for flushing. OOOh, I would love it to snow, but it's looking like ICE! YUCK! Did you see my Dawg, Cracker? I'm so proud of myself and I did it without teen assistance.

You guys make me smile.. I love this forum!:D

Up on the rooftop....



Okay, guys, I guess we're safe because this happened in Charlotte. Otherwise, we might all have to be posting a disclaimer like Fat Pappy's from earlier this week....

On the early morning news today there was a story about 4 female college students who found a DEAD DEER on their roof. Not only was this a dead deer who crashed into their roof (reindeer fly!), this one had HOLIDAY LIGHTS wrapped around it! (Not one of THE reindeer?!?!) The girls thought it was a plastic deer at first, then realized it was real...

Police investigated, but said there was no evidence of a crime. The girls say they have no idea who might have put it there. They also thought it was pretty funny, but also sick.... They also had a mess to clean up. (The deer was evidently dragged up the side of the house...)

Skiddles you never cease to amaze me!  I did go over to the road rage page and checked out your flappy eared pup.  He's great!  So happy to be crusin' too! With all of our new found knowledge, our teens had better watch out cause we are dangerous!


macca, I saw that dead deer on the rooftop story this morning too.  What a sick joke that was.  I think for the safety of all deerkind, we had better cease our mundane chatter about dead deer.  It's been a rough season for old Rudolph for sure!

Skiddles.........I think you put a hex on me.   Got out of the car at work this am, and crash, bang, boom on the ice.  I'm kind of a big guy........ya know the old saying about "the bigger they are, the harder they fall?",  this am, it's true.  Yeeee - ouch !!!!

Nothing busted but my pride......just HAD to be a bunch of my co-workers there to see it.   Course, they were doin' their share of ice-dancin' too !!

Where have FatPappy, Thunder, & some others been this week? guess they're all fillin' their bathtubs.

In case I forget to tell y'all, this Saturday I'm headed back to Mexico for a week, taking wife & daughter with me to mix a little business with pleasure.  So I'll be off from Saturday until I find a high speed hookup in MX.  Take care of the playground in my absence.  Monty will be watching for me. I'll still be around til Sat.

Ok I have arrived on the playground.  No teenager required.  I do have one, but I will not let him near the computer, because I am having too much fun playing on the playground.

My mom wouldn't let me run with the scissors either.  Sometimes I just call her up and say, "mom, guess what I'm doing, running with the scissors"  She just doesn't care if I stand with the refrigerator door open anymore.  Amazing how you close it faster when you are wasting your own electricity.

Guys be careful on that ice today.  Don't want any more mishaps after Steve falling this am.  I am lucky enough to be able to work at home on days like today.


OK well you are right, this isn't working, it is playing on the playground, but I am just taking a little break it is lunch time.

 


Glad you are checking in Fat Pappy we have missed you.

Euson has caught SMILEY FEVER!  Woo hoo!  A + Euson!



Ditto on the ice warning folks.  Crackah has a bad backache today from flinging all those darn christmas lights last weekend I guess.... It is murder going out on that ice when your back is out. Hope you don't have a back ache tomorrow from your morning acrobatics Steve!

Did you break Mybelle's chifforobe with your left or right hand?

I just love that movie, Pappy!


OOps, I went somewhere else with my thoughts.
