My hubby grew up in Texas. The first time I made chili for him, it had lots of beans in it and he informed me that if it has beans in it, it's NOT chili! ;)
Not that Texans have their own ideas about things!! :p Cornbread can be really yummy!!!! It speaks of home and comfort for us American Southerners!:)


people here think im weird because i love kidney beans! I still have the CDR anthem popping into my head randomly:)

Tidgy is highly impatient sometimes, stomping about and looking up at me with a "come on - hurry up" expression.
Did the grid arrive ?

Not yet, but it's only 10:00 am here! :p We're on the very end of our mail carrier's route, so it won't be until after lunch. ;)

Elsa is VERY patient and tolerant- she's been a great first tortoise! The only time she gets upset or agitated is when I soak her: she hates, as in HATES being soaked no matter WHAT the water temp or depth. It distresses me to see her frantically trying to crawl up the sides and out of the water, so I don't soak her often at all. :( Other than that, she's a very placid little gal! :)

Just a silly game, points are awarded for each post and bonuses for answering the questions, cheese mentions, jokes and photos etc.
Also minus points for some answers, mentioning of camels and processed cheese (and therefore hump day. ;)).
It's fun, no prizes or anything.:)
And no one knows exactly how it works, not even me.
Minus points Adam! But I don't know how many. YOU mentioned that word this time!:p

And NOW.....

Good evening. Regards to Wifey and hugs to Tidgy from :<3: OLI.

What a lovely post!!! Quite poetic.
Please pop in when you can to say 'Hi', but I understand your position.
Thanks for popping in and good luck in all that you do! :)
Hahah! Adam, I post so little that when I do, it better have some content, meaning: thought, emotion and even some spiritual content if at all possible

I figured that it was a game. Have had a suspicion about the "camels" but guess was not smart enough to connect the word with "hump day".... Hmmmm!:)

Hi! :) Want some advice? Please do NOT EVER mention the name of that animal. If you do you're in for....TROUBLE with Adam, and points will be deducted!! (Only joking, ok?) :D

I couldn't deal with 35 everyday, it just seems so much worse than 183 or Mopac.
I hardly ever use i35. Sticking to toll roads when I can and I like the side roads through the country side. Seems like there's always something blooming around here. Few days ago I saw bunch of Bradford Pear trees in almost full bloom(!!!!) are you in Austin?

I have been a fan all my life and gone to many conventions.
I've become friends with many of the actors concerned and used to go drinking with some of them.(Tom Baker for example).
Wifey was an actress by profession and appeared in many major BBC shows (and other things) in the 70's and 80's (but not Doctor Who) .
She co-starred in a terrible video spin-off science fiction thing with Colin Baker, who is a friend of ours cousin and photographer to the stars (and our wedding).
He also produced a double CD sci-fi adventure with a couple of the actors who played companions and wifey and I were in it, too. ( I have done a teeny bit of acting, mainly theatre.)
Where can I get my hands on some of the stuff you guys were in?

learning to drive (legally) 15years in the auto trade and this is me just getting my license :/
Oh there's nothing wrong with that. I guess it's a little funny since you work in the auto trade, but I've known tons of people who didn't learn to drive. -Many of them New Yorkers, where there just isn't much point in driving.
