COLD DARK ROOM

[johnandjade]

When my brother was in the army and was on guard duty at night, the soldiers all tried all sorts of things to help themselves stay awake. He said the thing the worked best for him was several cups of BURNED coffee and a couple of Red Bulls!!!! It not only gave a massive caffeine boost, the combination upset his stomach horribly so he couldn't fall asleep if he tried!!!!! (Have I mentioned that my brother is crazy? He's a wonderful, bright, gentle, playful fellow but he's quite nuts, in my humble opinion! Of course, I AM the big sister, so I'm bound to have opinions!!!!)

it's not opinion, it's wisdom

The who/what?

scottish 'band'.

there most famous is 500miles , which has become a second unofficial national anthem after flower of scotland.

the official is god save the queen, though sadly not the sex pistols version

my vote is for the birdy song.

The who/what?

Very appropriate tune for the Card Exchange - Letter from America.

THE Scottish band - Their song '500 miles' is probably the second most popular song in Scotland after 'Flower of Scotland'

Thank you everyone. Yes, I haven't been around lately, sorry. Very busy, this time of year especially.
Hope every one is well

happy birthday

I'm peachy, thanks!
Took me a while to get caught up on all the posts from today!!!! Chatty bunch!
I am cooking some white chili for lunch, as we routinely have friends over on Sunday to watch the New Orleans Saints football games on TV. Unfortunately, the Saints are having a bad year.

As an amusing aside, back in the 1960's, when the football team was being formed and names were being considered, someone asked the Archbishop of New Orleans if it would be sacrilegious to name a sports team "The Saints." He said not at all, but asked if they were aware that most of the Christian saints were martyrs?

Explanation required. What's white chilli? We only get chilli con carne that's with tomato

Not necessary, those are well drilled movements.
