Thanks for interjecting. 20538. Ulgine Barrows - 11/13/2006 8:31:34 AM Ms. No, 20536. Ms. No - 11/13/2006 7:01:57 AM
That whole war was just a debacle. I've been thrown up on by Vietnam vets, herding them doesn't work. They are not sheep. Not that you ever said they were.
Just that, I sympathise. 20539. alistairconnor - 11/13/2006 11:28:39 AM So, have the aliens abducted hubby yet? 20540. Ulgine Barrows - 11/13/2006 11:37:52 AM No, but we played a game tonite.
The
Worst Case Scenario
Survival Game
And a riddle about alien abduction came up, oddly enough, now that you mention it.
I am not kidding. 20541. Ulgine Barrows - 11/13/2006 11:45:36 AM Sample quizzes are similar to these:
How To Survive Eating Animals In The Wilderness
How To Wrestle An Alligator
How To Give CPR
How To Escape From a Sinking Car
How To Avoid Being Attacked By A Black Bear
How To Treat Bad Breath
20542. Ulgine Barrows - 11/13/2006 11:49:39 AM Eh, I can't find the card in this stack.
To avoid being abducted by aliens, it pretty much said this
THINK LOUDLY IN YOUR HEAD,
I HAVE A VIRUS AND YOU DO NOT WANT TO TAKE ME.
Hysterical. 20543. judithathome - 11/13/2006 12:56:53 PM Well, sorry to interject more cat talk but since I am new to this and still entranced with Harley but don't know how to post pictures (forgot what Magos taught me a few years ago) until I learn, there are 3 pictures of Harley here at Able Minds in Posts 3447, 3450, and 3453 They were posted by my friend Malibu Boy, who took the photos yesterday morning.
There are more...and much bigger cats pictured on that page...ha! Harley would just be a snack for those brutes! 20544. thoughtful - 11/13/2006 4:31:13 PM cute kitty! 20545. judithathome - 11/13/2006 9:33:13 PM Yeah...she's already wormed her way into our hearts. 20546. jexster - 11/14/2006 1:41:17 AM Anyone seen "Call Me Crazy"? 20547. arkymalarky - 11/14/2006 6:21:34 AM Hey Dubai!!
How's things? 20548. thoughtful - 11/14/2006 4:11:41 PM Interesting morning...witnessed a head-on collision between 2 soccer moms. Fortunately everyone was strapped in and no one was hurt, but stunning nonetheless...how one instant life is going along as planned and WHAM! things have changed. 20549.

Yes, this is something Flexy thinks about every time I get in the car—what would happen to me if you were suddenly incapacitated, he asks, knowing that the warning reminds me to drive carefully, something, by the way, that I do all the time. Of course, no one is indispensable and Flexy would be okay, but as happy, absolutely not, he assures me.
20550. thoughtful - 11/14/2006 5:24:17 PM Silly to be supersticious, I know, but I try to avoid telling hubby to be careful. It seems every time we've had a bad incident, someone always remembers someone telling them to be careful. When I don't say it, nothing seems to happen.
And then again, I always pele, pele. 20551. Magoseph - 11/14/2006 5:53:36 PM So weird that I was discussing driving carefully this morning in view of what almost happened since my last post. Just before I reached the store where I get the morning paper and bagel, this small car made a left turn in front of me, forcing me to slam on the breaks. I was so outraged that I followed that car all over town, wanting to tell off the driver. Only when finally the driver trying to escape me going left and right and around on her tail and then on the highway, did I stop following it. I’ll find the jerk lady eventually now that I have memorized her license plate number and in case I forget it, have it right on the dashboard. I’m still seething with rage. Too bad that there were no police around saw her--turning left from a side road into traffic gets a stiff fine around here. 20552. thoughtful - 11/14/2006 6:06:07 PM Road rage...not good magos, especially since you could've easily gotten into an accident yourself being intent on following the person rather than focusing on driving safely.
I've seen it happen and I've had it happen to myself where you simply don't see something...i mean your eyes see the image, but it fails to register in the brain...remember that video clip of the people milling around and how many people never see the gorilla that shows up in the group?
People do stupid things...sh*t happens and close calls are actually good things if they remind us to be more careful next time. 20553. wonkers2 - 11/14/2006 6:19:07 PM Mago, I also suffer from road rage when I think other drivers intentionally drive dangerously or inconsiderately. I agree with thoughtful that getting angry with other drivers is not a good idea. But I find it hard not to. And I have been involved in a few situations that could have become serious if the other driver had been packing a gun. I tell myself everytime it happens that it is counter-productive and could turn out very badly. 20554. Magoseph - 11/14/2006 6:23:58 PM You’re right, thoughtful, I was certainly wrong not to evaluate my reaction to the incident. I called Judith in order to calm down and I feel better now after talking to her and reading your post. Thanks. 20555. thoughtful - 11/14/2006 7:29:25 PM I remember the story of the parents of a young gal who was getting her license for the first time. They gave her a small fuzzy creature with stick-on feet to put on the dashboard of her car. Creature was named ICKY...Impatience Can Kill You. 20556. Magoseph - 11/14/2006 9:14:34 PM Harley
