23276 is deleted because I don't want to be a Scrooge anymore.

HEY VK!!

23283. concerned - 12/27/2007 4:23:04 AM

Happy Kwanzaadon Hanumas!

It's rather amusing that people Conn'd supports would throw him in prison in a heartbeat for cultivating an innocuous substance that is, literally, a weed.

Not as bad as the Left supporting Iranian Muslim Fundamentalists....

23285. arkymalarky - 12/27/2007 4:32:54 AM

But you'd probably be sharing a cell with an Iranian Muslim Fundamentalist named Bubba.

23286. concerned - 12/27/2007 5:09:36 AM

Well, 'Bubba' would be a good deal smaller and weaker than me, so I wouldn't have much to worry about.

On the second day of Kwanzaa, Wonkers celebrates

UMOJA

To strive for and maintain unity in the family, community, nation and race.

Missed the entire week due to a virus I caught from my son...it's what I get for playing Florence Nightengale over last weekend when he was so ill.

I spent Christmas day in the bathroom...let's put it this way, I've lost 7 pounds since Tuesday morning when it hit. Have had no solid food since Monday.

NOT TO BE BELIEVED!!!!

23290. judithathome - 12/28/2007 7:08:12 PM

Gawd...I remember that ad. I think it was on our first TV, too! I definitely remember the rose in the dishwater and and her calling herself "Merm"...my dad couldn't stand her.

23291. arkymalarky - 12/28/2007 7:22:35 PM

Damn. Mose had a stomach virus last weekend and lost several pounds, too. Wonder if they're the same bug. Her past-due pregnant friend y'all met got it, as well. In fact, her whole family did. We didn't get it, but after teaching school so many years Bob and I rarely get that kind of thing any more.

23292. judithathome - 12/28/2007 10:36:06 PM

I think Leslie picked it up at work and he gave it to me....hopefully, it's the end of the line for it here. My worst fear is to hear Keoni in the bathroom, puking his guts out. We'll just have to cancel the party if he gets it.

If that's what Mose had, tell her I really feel for her.

I'm doing things around the house to get ready for the party...like getting anything that will distract Keoni the next two days from helping me clean...this means hiding stacks of stuff he would stop for and sift through for hours in order to avoid the things we HAVE to do.

Anyhow, I feel weak as all get out and have to rest between tasks...this is ridiculous!

Ask Mose if her muscles ached after the worst of it was over...mine feel like I've been working out and overdoing it. And I know I haven't been doing that....ha!

Oh, by the way...do you or Mose want a DVD of "Love, Actually"? What husbands do when wives are sick: think Amazon didn't take their order so they poke the "order now" button about 4 times and end up with four copies of the same movie.

23293. arkymalarky - 12/29/2007 10:07:13 AM

Haha! Sure!

Happy Holidays to you all --- sorry I missed everybody!

Baton Rouge was wonderful and we ended up driving into East Texas for Christmas Eve at my Aunt's (actually first cousin once removed, but she's always been "Aunt" to me)

Turns out it was a lucky year as nearly all the cousins were in from out of town --- even the ones who've been living in Switzerland for the past five years. The only folks missing were my brother and his family, and two of my cousins and their spouses although we did pick up their children along the way and bring them since their parents had to work.

24 people in the house. Excellent food and excellent company. We were counting up and realized that of the 24 there and six missing only 7 people in my whole family are not employed in education. Wild.

Ms. No, what's your connection to Baton Rouge? I grew up and graduated from high school there. It's a great town in many ways. But when I was there it was totally segregated. I lived not far from the LSU campus and went to U-High which was a great school, much better than the supposedly good one my kids attended to in a Detroit suburb.
