Pappy's been practicin' my chocolate candy eatin' skills today in preparation for a night o' intemperance an' excess. After that I'm goin' Trick or Treatin'. Hee hee!

Tonight, if a slightly larger young'un dressed like a ol' coot backs a pickup truck up to yer doorstep, be kind an' don't correct him when he says "Truck for Treats". Just fill up the bed with chocolate an' ease on back in the house...

Pardon me for typalkin' with my mouth full but I just had to get on here and tell ya that I have the greatest bunch of neighbors ever!!!





 Moon Pies!  Baby Ruth Bars! Reese's Cups!!! 



The Cracker is gonna have SWEET DREAMS tonight!!!!!


Here's a picture of me in my costume.....






I gotta tell ya what happened while we were out and about poundin' the pavement for our freebies.  We went to this new neighbor's house (They're transplants, probably from California :shock: or somewhere) ANyway, I haven't met these neighbors though I have heard thru the grapevine that they don't have a TV :shock::shock::shock: (forgivable, though not understandable :D). 



Their house is all lit up so we go up to this house, and believe me, there's a whole HERD of us :D.  The mom comes to the door and says "no treats here!  We don't DO Halloween"  I'm thinkin' OK, to each his own, after all, we've been talkin' about understanding differences with the Stokesdale issues and all.......



Meanwhile,  the 20 bajillion kids are standin' there on the porch with their jaws on the concrete not really feelin' like they got "closure" and this 4 year old that we are with (and he's a loud one...)pipes up and says "Well, that's just WEIRD!" :shock::shock:



Maybe you had to be there, but it was funny as all get out!  Very embarrasing for the tag along parents but funny just the same.



Note to new neighbors... If you want to keep the candy hounds at bay, turn off the porch light. ;)

Hi everyone,

I've deleted an artist rendering that bears a striking resemblance to someone most of you know.  Please don't post it here anymore.

Also, one of the reasons the site is so slow is that there are now 672 pages on MAAN, and most of them have graphics on them.  Within the next few days we need to close these pages and start fresh-- please go ahead and save anything that you want to keep before I close these pages.  I know you all love the graphics, but it definitely slows down the system  -- you might want to consider being a little more selective as to when you use them.

While I'm at it, I need to close down some of the other topics, and pages in topics because they're getting so long -- again, I'll give you a chance to save anything that you'd like before I do.

Thanks, Patti

I think somebody out there probably has the knowledge Pappy, but they'd have to  have a lot more free time on their hands than we do.....


Do you think red slows things down???  (imagine big eyed smiley here...)

Don't you moderators have an EXPORT button or something back there behind the scenes???  Then you could EXPORT it to word, burn me a copy <smiling> and then delete the file since it'd probably be a zillion gigabytes or something.

Actually if it takes a year to really slow the site down with graphics that isn't bad. I really hate to see people stop being creative. Maybe we should just know every year or so we will have to have a purging. This is coming from one of the uncreative people who really enjoys what computer literate people can do.

I am not a computer geek nor all that computer literate, but couldn't you open this thread, set set up a file on a CD, and then print to file. Seems like there must be a way to burn the entire thread (file) to a CD. Then making copies for those who wanted them would be a breeze. It would also seem this would be the same thing as Exporting to a file to save the incredible literary genius exhibited here.

I'll bet Ol' Shakespeare and Chaucer never had to worry about losing their literary genius over matters as mundane as bandwidth and gigabytes.
