COLD DARK ROOM

[Blackdog1714]

To keep the SPORK in this relationship may I offer a quote from a most awesome/devious movie- “You get a spork” the warden tells Gerard Butlers characters when his steak dinner arrives. The scene livens up when he gives his roommate the biggest part of the the Porterhouse Steak and he palms the t-bone! A spork caused that!

I made a mistake on my laps in my last report. I took another look at my lap counter and it shows eleven laps. So I'm making it my MISSION to double that amount in the next few weeks. I know this seems IMPROBABLE, but I'll give it the old collage try!

That’s true... now I’m having doubts. Oh well, if I lose 10, then maybe I’ll get the wooden spork from @Lokkje

Now I can’t tell if those laps are your mission improbable, or if your just trying to get us to guess the wrong thing. ?

Holy cats. I sleep for a few hours and come back to pages of banter and craziness. I knew I loved you all for a reason. This is only my third chat ever I used to chat back in the 90s on a site called WBS and you all remind me of those days... which is ironic as I almost reused my name from there NutMeg but instead used a name to honor my tortoise as he’s what brought me here. ?
And now you guys have the stupid square guys song stuck in my head. That ranks right up there with the Andy Griffin whistle song, Oscar Meyer wiener song, the old cat food song -what’s got into that cat-, Rawhide, and most appropriately ..
“Almond Joys got nuts.. Mounds don’t..” —I so miss eating coconut.
-Meg
-glad my day starts this way-

For me it was the Disneyland Small World song. That one gets stuck in my head and I even wake up in the a.m. with it.

Just saw this on Twitter, reminded me of a certain Legend, not John.

Morning/Day all....

for old timers, or folks who have read this entire thread, you MIGHT recall that last year a friend and I kayaked out into Baltimore’s Inner Harbor to greet their Tall Ship “The Pride of Baltimore II” as she arrived back into home port following a long Summer of cruising. I took some great pix. A few have been used in promos from the Pride Staff.

Just yesterday the online PADDLING.com publication was published and lo n behold one of my photos was used in one of their articles regarding navigation.

That's really cool!

This reminds me of something that happened many years ago.
I took our family beagle to a professional photographer. It was to be a Father's Day gift. He got some very nice shots of her, and I was happy.

About 2 years later I stopped in at a different vet than the one we used. His reception room had photos of dogs and cats all the way around the room, and there was the pic of my beagle!

I of course asked about the picture...I was told they thought it unusual to see a beagle "sitting pretty".

This is a small copy of the photo...

That was a really good movie...just not for the squeamish! I love movies that have a surprise ending, and are clever.

Did you ever see Sleuth? My favorite movie of all time.

that’s plenty of time to post on the cdr?
He should take a train,bus or cab so his hands are free to text!!!! Punk head! ?

Yea butt even a cheap phone can have speech to text maybe. Turn on the app.?

 

[Cathie G]

Looks around ?

There you are!??

 

[Cathie G]

Speaking of @Mystic_Queen we miss you. Where are you? Are you okay or are you still struggling with the very horrible covid-19?

I heard or read she's getting better but she's about to have her children home. Yeah! But going to deal with homeschool next.

 

[Cathie G]

Good Morning All.

I need to catch up later. But Someone sent me this via whatsapp and I have to share.
I know you guys are not going into spring but oh well, I am going to brag a bit anyway, just because I can.

I hope it works.

I love that!

 

[Cathie G]

I know, I still miss her. I do send her an email every now and then to see how she is and you can catch her on instagram

Or a card cause we know where she lives.?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Ok, @Tidgy's Dad I think I know what @Maro2Bear is doing. He says it’s hot and muggy this morning all the time! That’s my guess

Very well spotted.
Mark does seem to say that a lot doesn't he?
Probably because it's hot and muggy where he lives.
Wrong answer, -10.
Brave of you to be the first to go definitively for a Mission, though.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

yes

Brave, but wrong.
-10.

Is that the same place where you posted a picture of all of you? If so it reminded me of Izee's rendition of "Over the Rainbow ?"
