Right post something no one knows about you it can be something silly or serious but no heavy or sad stuff lets have a giggle and raise some smiles things are way to serious around here at the moment.

OK here my first

I have an adiction to eBay I love to buy other peoples crap and re sell it :eek:

I have a clean house problem that I can't seem to shake. I could get a maid but I would just wonder if she is using the bathroom rag on the kitchen counters... LMAO
CBW, too fun, I love Ebay too! I have bought in a long time, but I will again I promise!

I like to buy pretty underthings

It doesn't need to be naughty or sexy---just pretty and feminine.

Oh hell start that leads perfectly to my second confession...

I HATE HOUSEWORK seriously ill do anything to prevent cleaning except the bathroom and kitchen that is the rest of the house stuff it...

So do you want to come be my maid lol

As long as Synn buys me something pretty, and you make me a good dinner when I am done... LOL

Ah yes I'm looking forward to pretty shopping just waiting for my body to quit shrinking lol

I barely got any sleep last night, now keep this in mind...

We use a card key to get into our work building. Ok, so I come into the building... the card key is still in my hand. I walk to the elevator and I'm standing there in a sleepy daze. Instead of pushing the elevator button, I lift my card and start swiping.

Oh.my.gosh.

I realized my faux pas and FROZE. I was praying to God that NO ONE was behind me. I really do think people saw it happen. Man I felt stupid. I guess it beats the time my editor decided to call a coworker and she was using the keys on her keyboard to dial instead of the phone... and she wondered why no one picked up.

Starty and Curlybenswife, I'm a cross between the two of you. Love a clean house. My mood depends on whether my house is clean or messy. Of course it's a losing battle, I have two kids, two dogs, 3 rabbits, 1 bird, 1 fish and 1 husband. My house is in a constant state of disaster, and I hate being the one to clean it. I do need a maid.

Synnen, I could use something pretty, especially something pretty that only my hubby and I will see.

Hey, can you say "Girls shopping trip!"

mafiaangel180 I love it we all do these things I quite often do something hidiously silly when I'm in the kitchen and think to myself thankgod bens at work and its just me and the kids hehehehehehe

LOL, is that as bad as picking up the remote control to your ear and saying "hello?"???:D

HAHAHAHAHA... niiiice!! I was telling my coworker the story, and she told me she stood at the door to her house continuosly pushing her automatic car opener doo-hicky. Hehehehe.

Ah scott I remember seeing the pictures of that and thinking to myself my word that can't seriously be him giggle ben put me right though ;)

Altenweg Start has good reason she lives in a zoo (joke start love you really) I have two kids and a rabbit and three cats and a ben to control also I just have too much stuff lol that's my problem.

Ya, I'm a pack rat, can't throw anything away. I'm going to have to get a bigger house just so that I have room for my stuff.

I once sang in front of 250 people, the song was. Doo a diddy diddy (Not sure of the actual title, you know "There she goes just walking down the street singing doo a diddy, diddy dum diddy do." Maybe you are all to young to remember that song. Anyway, I've got it on tape. Don't even ask, not going to share it, I'm surprised that I kept it. Got to remember to burn it. I'll do it later. Did I mention that I procrastinate allot?

I love things... when we moved I got rid of so many things, and now look at me, I miss them!
But on the other hand, I haven't unloaded the big ole boxes of collectible chickens yet either, so I am on a pak rat stall... no clutter and clean!

I don't collect anything in perticular just have a hell of a lot of crap everywhere lol

Ok third confession I have a thinf for buying the designer alessi's kitchen utensils cough we won't tell ben the amount I spend sssshhhhhh

You guys are making me laugh on a very unfunny day. Thanks, I needed that. Got to go play with my princess.

Oh, one more secret that you don't know about me, and this is strictly classified, really, you tell anyone and I'll be forced to hunt you down and feed you hot peppers.

Ready?


No Peeking...


I know how to play the accordion, took lessons for 3 years. Shhhh, no telling.

Oh S##t I think I just wet myself... off to bath the small people xx

LOL, Alty, that is great! That is weird... but really great!
CBW, you should get right in with them!
I have a weird thing about laundry too, I love it, I clean things if they just sat for too long, I clean blankies especiallly... I know... sorry I had to say it!
I love music and I can listen to the same fave song until I hear it and hate it!

I once sang in front of 250 people, the song was.

We were on vacation and they had a karoke DJ. I chose to sing Impossible Dream because it's a dream of mine (nearly impossible) for me to hit that note at the end. Anyway on this occasion, I went for the note and broke into a fit of coughing, nearly fell off the stage. It was video karaoke so I have it on video tape. Fortunately for others, something was wrong with the audio so you just have the video of me doubling over and stumbling off the stage.

HAHAHAHA! Nice Scott, I love ot hear of anyone singing. I wish I could get up the gumption to go and do karaoke, I have always wanted to but really it isn't in me. Oh that video would be a priceless keepsake! Great memeories.
When I was 15 my parents and I were in Florida to do the whole comedy night at Disney World, for some odd reason I wanted to sing the "love Shack, they make a video and you can get a copy, (which my dad hasn't handed over so I could stomp on it then burn it) anyway, it was real bad these three adults in their twenties maybe, let me do it with them. Holding the guitar with my then hot mama dress on I thought I was cool, but ohhhh NOOOOOO, I wasn't! I am so embarrassed just thinking about it... WOW, I want that tape!

HAHAHAHA! Nice Scott, I love ot hear of anyone singing.

That's the bane of my existence. I LOVE to sing, but often cannot carry a tune. My wife and daughter refuse to watch musicals with me. When I drive them anywhere they use headphoines to tune me out.

I love karaoke because everyone makes a fool of themselves so I don't stick out too much. I do a pretty mean If I were a Rich Man (from Fiddler) though. Very Zero Mostel.

I like to buy pretty underthings

Do I smell modeling video <EG>

My fave song is Match Maker Match Maker.
At my work I sing it out loud and fierce... with all my heart while I make our famous Macaroni salad... I sing
Mac maker Mac maker make me some MAC... LMAO the college kids I work with have no idea of the real song, but they like the Startover version still!
Uhhhhhh, and I am not sure aobut the Synnen pretty girl video, I would love to hear an answer! :o

EDIT:::::
AND when a man orders extra mac, I call him the Mac Daddy... LOL just another funny thing about me, I sometimes embarrass people in the wrong way but mean it very much so in a sweet funny way!

Well I didn't say I looked GOOD in said pretty things.

I just like to wear them.

It's just nice when I'm all business on the outside at work to have the secret that I'm all feminine underneath.

I am SO with you Synn! And its an addiction of mine as well. We just got a new Victoria Secret 5 miles from my apt... BAAAAD for my wallet!

Karaoke? My one embarrassing karaoke experience was doing Thriller with a bunch of Chinese students... wow...

One cool thing... I was kissed on the Great Wall of China. :) That's a sweet memory.

My word Scott your on form today ;) so you like to be a clown and love to sing come on what else??

The most you will get me singing is a children's rhyme its better that way honestly id get committed otherwise although try stopping me bopping around the kitchen singing into the wooden spoon to westlife hehehehehe Millie thinks that's hysterical to watch too.

Syn my darling you would look good in a bin bag me and start would both vouch for that one :)

You're just trying to make me blush!

Here's one that isn't exactly a secret--I collect icicles. I have almost 500 now, and can't get them all on a Christmas tree anymore. I have to hang them from windows and ceilings. And lamps and such.

Like glass ones or what Synn? I know you are a wonderful and beautiful Christmas junkie, but explain the icicles please? I could look around here for some if you would like? LOL
I could see how Millie would love you for that CBW, the kids are the best at understanding that kind a stuff!

Yes, glass icicles.

I have a LOT of the plain ones that come in sets, so now I'm getting to the point where I'm picky. I have all shapes and colors and sizes, from 2 inches long to 24 inches long. The rule with them is that they have to be longer than they are wide, and they have to be metal or glass (no plastic! ---that just gets tacky!).

These days I find the really neat ones at antique stores and flea markets :)

Ohhhh, I am a flea market, antique store junkie... I will see what I can do LOL
K, thanks for telling me, I wonder about EBAY say it quietly CBW really likes to spend money there...

I've found some great ones on Ebay as well---I bid one time up to $200 on a small box of them, and then lost because the other person bidding outbid me at the last second.

You have to be careful about Icicles online, though---in the 40s and 50s, there was a brand of tinsel called "icicles"... and that's what you turn up most of the time looking online.

LOL! I was thinking, "Ummm Synn, dear, don't they MELT???"

Wow... HC needs some more coffee...

Hee, hee, I was thinking, gee, Synn must have a huge freezer. I need more coffee too.

I'd love to hear Scott sing. I'll accompany you on my accordion Scott. How about it?

Hee, hee, I was thinking, gee, Synn must have a huge freezer. I need more coffee too.

Now that would be cool! :D
Ok... lots a coffee, a twenty minute shut yer eyes and rest, I am feeling fine! :D

Cool, you really think so? Cool is probably not the word you'll use if it ever happens. 37 year old playing an accordion is so not cool, Ever, Really!

I have to disagree, it may be kind of odd, cause it just is, but it is for sure COOL!! I thinnk it is cool, and now when I do my beat boxing you can help me out... LOL

I'll be there babe. Anytime, anywhere, can I wear a disguise?

No farkin way, you got to be you! LOL
All right, I got to see about some really cute kids behind me... :)

Ya, me too, they want dinner or some such thing. Jeez, how often do you have to feed these things anyway?:p

Did I say I was going to go?
Sheesh I forgot... they got quiet and sweet...

How did you manage quiet and sweet. Mine are hungry and angry. Mom, were's the food!
I better go feed them, otherwise they might set their sites on one of the bunnies.:eek:

Oh, did I mention, I love bunnies, can't get enough bunnies, bunnies make me happy.:)

Type at you all later. I'll go dust of the accordion, maybe we can have a concert.;)

For those of you that don't know, I'm Scottgem's daughter. I've been watching him on here for what seems like forever, and I have to say, I can definitely understand why he gets along with you all so well! You all get me laughing whenever I read.

By the way, you do NOT want to hear him sing!!

Let's see, my giggle story...

All right, I don't know if Dad has posted this anywhere but I used to be the family navigator, before he got the GPS (he's such a tech freak lol). I must have been somewhere around 10 years old and we were going on vacation and I was in the backseat. There was a fork in the road and we had to take the road on the right. I was pointing in that direction and saying "That way, that way!" He started to go left and finally I yelled "Go right!" He was screaming at me and I said "If I wanted you to go left, I would have said 'This way!'" My mom could not stop laughing and I have not lived that one down. In fact, sometimes we still use "This way" and "That way" to determine direction!

Blondieshika05 - Scotts daughter, hmm. :D

Girls, do you realize that we have a unique opportunity to get the dirt on Scott Gem, this should not be passed up. Girls unite!:D

Blondie, you have to dish, that's what girls do, we won't tell your Dad, really, you can trust us. :cool:

Tell her girls!

Just kidding, we all love your Dad, he's a tell it like it is big ole softie. Love the story about the directions, I had a similar situation with my husband. I had to put the letter L and R on his shoes so that he could distinguish between left and right, funny thing, he put the shoes on the wrong feet. I married him because he's sweet, I never said he was bright.:D

I like to buy pretty underthings

It doesn't need to be naughty or sexy---just pretty and feminine.

I'm the opposite - I love ugly underwear! :D Not like granny panties, but the Victorias Secret PINK collection has some brightly colored striped and patterned undies, and I just love them. My favorite pair are dark purple with silver sparkly dog-and-crossbones (like skull and crossbones, but the PINK dog where the skull goes). I recently bought some when I was with my mom, I think she was embarrassed I was buying such tacky undies! I almost always wear thongs, so hubby looks past the fact that my undies are sinfully ugly!

I also like ugly sleep pants; stripes, polka dots, plaid... the pair I'm wearing now are white fleece with pink, purple and green stripes and big ol' snowflakes. Ugly, ugly, ugly, but I can't get enough of them! :p

The rest of my clothes aren't ugly, I swear! Just my undies and lounge pants!

And blondie, your story reminds me of my brother - he was reading the map on a family trip once... his directions? "Go straight and then up" :D He still hasn't lived it down... and it's been probably 20 years!

Ooooh! I love ugly sleep pants too! Mine right now are faded-to-gray flannel with (I think) cows on them.

But underneath, there's the white silk with pastel butterflies undies.

(uh oh--Synn's been at the wine... watch out!)

I love Synnen mixed with wine, it's funny Synnen time.

Watch out Synnen, I drank a beer yesterday and totally inserted foot in mouth. I hate that, I'm trying so hard to be good.

Okay, since this is supposed to be confession time, and you all are confessing what you wear to bed, I'll confess as well. Nothing but a smile. Boy I hope I never have to leave the house in a hurry, in the middle of the night, the neighbors will get a big surprise, my little white butt. (little, hee, hee, who am I kidding?)

I'll confess with you Altenweg - nothing beats sleeping in the buff! My ugly pants are strictly for parading around the house. Until, that is, we move and don't have neighbors!

I had one pair of ugly pants for so long the fuzzy flannel had worn off and there was a gigantic hole that went about 1/3 of the way down my leg. Hubby made fun of me so much I finally got rid of them. I still miss those pants, and that was years ago!

Just remember one thing. Never fry bacon in the nude. Been there, done that, have the scar to prove it.

Nice to meet you Blondie!
Alty, I would have never known.
Jillian, Nice, I like ugly too, but pretty...
Synn, one more glass, just have one more glass...

For those of you that don't know, I'm Scottgem's daughter. I've been watching him on here for what seems like forever, and I have to say, I can definitely understand why he gets along with you all so well! You all get me laughing whenever I read.

Hehehehehehe You my girl deserve a medal for having him as a dad ;)
Ive heard all about you a very proud dad indeed and rightly so even if your navigation skills have a lot to be desired.
I have to say if we are going anywhere and ben needs a map I make him read amd check it over and over before we go because I am totally crap at telling him where to go unless its in a mean sense of course hehehhehe

Okay, here's mine - ( no kidding there are so many ) may need another thread, but GREAT idea CBW

Okay - They say I am the blondest red head anyone has ever met. ( Sorry blondies - no slight on all of you ).

Well I a married a very dear and micheavous man. With a higher content of micheavous.
I on the other hand, never really had much luck at raffles or drawings or winning anything.
I stink at trivia and I get excited to the hills, if by chance I may know something.

So one lovely day, several years ago, my darling dashing, loving but heavy on the micheavous decideds to gather our whole group together (hubby and I worked together for 19 years - friends, then marriage), so he was telling us of this wonderful company, that
is giving away child videos to anyone who can guess the next line of the nursery rhyme receipted by the company represtentative when they answer the phone.

Well I immedialtey thought of my "dalring" nephews and thought, would it be great if I won them a video. This was back when videos were not as popular.

Mr. Allheart, said, when he called, he got a real tough one. There had to be 10 to 15 people gathered around. And dingy me, says... oooooh oooooh Please give me the number, let me try, I just want to try and see. You never know. I know some nursrey rhymes, and maybe I will get lucky...

So...

The Darling Mr. Allheart obliges my request and gives me the number... my fingers couldn't dial fast enough... my heart was racing... I was scared... yet excited... and then.. the company answered...

"Hello, Jack and Jill

Holy crap!! I got this one in the bag. I almost wanted to cry... I tried so hard to get the words out... as fast as I could... and I did...

I excitedly and proudly responded... " Went up the hill to catch a pail of water"... Oh Me Oh my... what did I win I asked the lady... I holllered to the others I won I won... Allthough Mr. Allheart was doubled over in laughter... ()))*&^%^)(_(&)

The very nice and understanding lady said, "Sweetheart, I think someone is playing a joke on you, this is the Jack and Jill Ice cream company and today is April 1st. I'm sorry sweetheart".

She was such a nice lady.

I hung that phone up so fast... and chased Mr. Allheart all the way down the hall. I can still hear the roar of laughter from everyone.

He has not changed one bit since then, slowed down a little, but still very mischeous.

What a mean soul he is :). You would all love him and he tells that story at least 4 times a year.

So, I didn't get win a prize, but, I am much more careful every time April 1st rolls around.

LMFAO oh my Ah anyone ever told you to look guilable up oh how I love you I have tears rolling down my face where I'm giggling so much only you hunn only you...

LMAO - I just hollered up the steps... I hate you Mr. All heart.

Oh there are more. I promise to compile them all together and share them. ( I LMAO right with him) Ya think he would get bored... but he just comes up with more.

Hugs my bestest friend, thanks for being you and always being there.

Xo.

This will make you laugh...

Postmans just been gave me a package it was addressed to me... now bare in mind my neighbour said to me laura I'm having a package sent to you for lisa should be with you Monday and today's Wednesday and I'm expecting a ton of stuff.
So I open it and it's a pair or wrist restraints you know the sexual kind no note nothing I'm thinking who the F~~K is sending me this kind of crap.
I ask ben not me honest I start feeling somewhat freaked out lol like hell who the frig has my address to be sending this kind of stuff.
I'm sat here with this tiny delivery slip in my hand and there's a mobile number on it so I scroll through my numbers in my phone and its my neighbours the blinking relief is massive I've just sent him a text saying ah ha guess what I've got ;)

Busted!!

I know honestly Scott I was thinking oh god I've got myself a stalker giggle

Wow I didn't think I'd get THAT kind of reaction lol. Dad may be a "softie" on here but trust me you don't want to live with him hahaha. I don't know about dishing dirt though... then again he has embarrassed me enough in public... :)

Softy are you kidding he has a reputation here trust me lol
Have you got any pictures of him wearing micky mouse ears ;)

Allheart!! Too funny!

My parents took my friend and I (age 15) out to Homer Alaska, we always took the boat and went halibut fishing. We were in a little soft flowing nook called Halibut Cove. Hundreds of sealions laying on the rocks, just like you see on the Discovery Channel, or Animal Planet. It was an amazing site. We had a little life life raft and my friend and I wanted to get a closer look at the wild life, so we asked my dad and he said sure, it's nice and calm out here... go ahead girls and here take the video camera with you! WELL
My grandparents came along with us so they all were having a great time, talking and hanging out on the "BIG" boat, while my friend and I were on the "little" teeny tiny teeniest ever boat... Her and I were so amazed at how big these things really are, I mean pretty much as big as our little itty bitty boat. So we were video taping all the life and wonder when all of a sudden, we hear this gun shot, this loud loud gun shot... all hell broke loose, every single one of those see lions flapped and flipped their way off the rocks into the water, right where we were video taping, I saw mouths, I heard sound, I saw big heavy bodies that could crush me with a flip of a fin... LOL all I could do is start cursing as loud as I could and my friend right along with me, I still have the video camera in hand, turned on, I am so surprised I didn't pee my pants, we rowed and rowed till we couldn't row anymore... we got to the "big" boat, and they were all laughing, I mean we could have died out there...
I guess my grandpa caught the biggest halibut of the day and my dad had to shoot it to get it in the boat, my dad also took a sliver of skin from my grandpas leg, some how his leg was in the line of fire! LMAO OK, I am done...

Wow I didn't think I'd get THAT kind of reaction lol. Dad may be a "softie" on here but trust me you don't want to live with him hahaha. I don't know about dishing dirt though...then again he has embarrassed me enough in public... :)

Hmm, not a softie, huh? Like just last night; "Daddy, I don't feel well can you warm me up a couple of chicken patties? And, old softie that I am, I did it. You just don't have a clue how good you have it!

You really don't want me to start telling stories about you. Like car keys for example? :D

Ha go for it Scott I for one know full well what dad's are like with there daughters hehehehehe

Start I bet it wasn't just wildlife you were filming ;)

Hee hee, well, CBW you must know me well enough!
Blondie and Scott, I am interested how it will be with both of you at the desk, everyone hounding you for dirt... LOL
Good luck with that, I tend to sway to the keeping you guys separate as your own person, so I won't be asking for dirt. Nice to see you here Blondie, you seem like a smart funny girl!

She's smart all right start of course she is blimey she has Scott as a dad.

LOL, you, she just has to be. And patient too?

Softy are you kidding he has a reputation here trust me lol
Have you got any pictures of him wearing micky mouse ears ;)


I wonder how much that picture would sell for on eBay. Just a thought.

I wonder how much that picture would sell for on ebay. Just a thought.

Ah you see he promised me one last year when they all went to disney lol but it never happened

Alty you have it the wrong way, CBW would be buying that pic, not selling it LMAO

Maybe she'd buy it and then hold it for ransom, not a bad idea.

Lol it would be a great bribe tool ;)

Maybe we should ask Blondie for a picture of her Dad. Blondie, this is a great way to get revenge for all the embarrassing things Dad's do to their daughters. Come on, we won't tell, you can trust us.;)

CBW - If I manage to get Blondie to give up a picture we have to split the profits. Deal?

I have a serious problem with door knobs and light switches. I am sure these are some of the dirties places I never touch public ones I use my paper towel to turn the water off and open the door and to flip the light switch. The knobs and switches at my house I clean at least once a week. Lol

Toplady I love it that conjours all kinds of weird and wonderful thoughts too ;)

Maybe we should ask Blondie for a picture of her Dad.

But I posted a picture of me, its in post #9 (1st page) in this thread. That IS a real picture of me!

Oh Scott, just kidding. We were looking for more incriminating photos, ones that we could sell on eBay, got any of those?

I used to have a real problem with my house being messy, everything had to be spotless, I even used a toothbrush to clean the grout in my shower. Funny how things change when you have kids. You know the 10 second rule when food falls on the floor? In our house it's the, "You better get it before one of the dog does!" and "It's just a bit of dog fur, wipe it off and eat it, it's just added flavor."

I agree all the way, I would be up all night long if I was the way I was before I had babies...

When my son was born I read all the books and followed them like they were the bible. Everything got sterilized, all the rules were followed to the T.

When my daughter was born everything changed. I remember going out for lunch with a friend. My daughters pacifier fell on the floor, with my son I would have ran to the bathroom and ran hot water over the pacifier for 10 minutes, with my daughter I picked it up, stuck it it my mouth to "rinse it" and then gave it back to her.

The lady sitting at the table beside ours started laughing, she turned to me and said "Second child right?" Yup, it's funny the things that change when kids come along.

Sadly, I am one of those people that has stood at the front door of my house pressing my car key unlock button, jiggle the handle, press it again, then I realized what I was doing. Lol.

I have also accidentally put my car in neutral before when I parked it and couldn't understand why it wouldn't start the next time I got in it. I threw a fit about it because I had just bought the darn thing and I thought the battery was already dead. My husband had a good laugh over that one.

This lady was asking if she was wrong that she went through her husbands phone I told her no. That a majority of woman do this. Around her they do I have asked several.And this chick gave me a reddie saying in fact that is not true. I gave her one right back because that was my opinion (not a FACT) kind of mad I don't feel like I deserved it. What's the rule on the reddies again?

Ha that's funny margarita momma

Hahaha, nice MM, nice to see you!
The schools here have a day where they start late every other Wed. Today was late start, but they also get home about a half hour late on the bus. So I am sitting out there for 10 minutes wondering what the heck is going on... then I soon remembered that the bus would be late today! Sheesh, sometimes I tell you!
I DO THIS ALMOST EVERY TIME and as of now it is getting really old! LOL

They should really only be given out when something is factually wrong, or if the advice is endangering someone (either the OP or someone else who may be reading it)

Reddies can only be given if the person disagrees with a fact. Same goes with the greenies too!

Oh Scott, just kidding. We were looking for more incriminating photos, ones that we could sell on ebay, got any of those?


Ok that one reminds me of the time I volunteered to video tape my niece's wedding. I didn't have a video camera at the time so the groom's father was loaning me his equipment. I picked up the equipment the day before the wedding. I was checking out the camera and found a tape in it. So natually I checked to see what was on it. Apparently the groom's father had taped an impromptu strip tease. An image still seared into my brain over 20 years later. Neither of us ever mentioned it to the other.

LOL. Oops I forgot one. I work in a small office and sometimes I get kind of zoned out reading some of the threads on here. I don't know how many times I have picked up the phone and answered it when the fax machine is ringing. My coworkers look at me like I'm crazy. I also do that at home when I hear the phone ring on TV.

Umm did I miss a question here?

By the way BB, that should SHOULD only be given, not CAN. Greenies can be given if someone wants to agree with an opinion.

Oh Scott that is hilarious!

OI you lot where did the red and green thing come from were talking about confessions/memorys not the bloody rating system here :rolleyes:

Scott I would have died if I had that kind of tape in my possession or would that be the father of the bride would have if id got drunk and decided to show everyone

I'll have to dig up some incriminating pics but if that happens I get a cut too! Hehehe

And Dad, one time making me chicken patties does NOT make up for all the times you've yelled and screamed for no good reason...

YA, SCOTT! Gosh, men I tell you... :rolleyes:

That's not what I read

Umm, since I WROTE the guidelines I think I know what they say. The system does not stop you from giving a reddie for whatever reason you want. Therefore, "can" is not the correct word. What we have are GUIDELINES for using the feature. If someone misuses (unless its done repeatedly) there is nothing to stop them.

And if you want to discuss this further lets not hijack this thread.

Um... I swear to you, I thought I was answering someone's question about that.

Please... pretty please... just delete all of the crap about the rating system.

I'll go back to my corner now.

And Dad, one time making me chicken patties does NOT make up for all the times you've yelled and screamed for no good reason...

Aww sweetheart, I don't yell and scream at you without good reason. Like the time you were insisting on driving to your club meeting in a blizzard, after I had just come back from an accident. Yes I may be quick to yell and scream, that's my nature. But I've also always been there for you whenever you've needed me, something you can't say. Like when I needed an extra pair of hands to setup the new TV and you flatly refused.

Do you really want to play this out here?

LOLOLOLOLOL, this is going to get good, unless you two behave yourselves! :rolleyes:

Ooh, Fight, continue.

Blondie, all kidding aside, enjoy every minute you have with your Dad, time flies way to quickly. And Scott, Ditto.

Okay, really embarrassing story. My husband is really good with a video camera, once the videotaping is complete he puts in pictures and music and other things and makes a really nice tape of memories, he did it with the video tape taken from our wedding.

My friend got married 4 months after we did, I had her bridal shower at my house, 20 people 15 of which I didn't know. During the shower my friend asked if everyone could see my video tape, my hubby was going to do the same as a gift to her, she wanted everyone to see. Well, the tape wasn't labelled, so I started popping in tapes trying to find it. Third tape gets popped in, I press play, and on the screen is a porno tape. I had no idea it was in the house, and the only thing I could think to say to all those strangers was "Oh, sorry, that's the honeymoon tape."

Needless to say, hubby and I had a long talk when he came home. After he stopped laughing he swore to me that he had no idea that tape was in the house. Still don't believe him 100% 13 years after the fact.

LOLOLOL, funny Alty, too funny.
Hmmmmmm... I think it was yours!

J/K Alty... :)

Honestly, it wasn't mine, or was it, hmmm, no, not mine.

I was a bridesmaid at that wedding so I had to go. There was allot of snickering behind my back that day.

I'll have to dig up some incriminating pics but if that happens I get a cut too! hehehe

And Dad, one time making me chicken patties does NOT make up for all the times you've yelled and screamed for no good reason...

Hunn he is your dad that's what dads do especially to there precious little girls trust me if you were to hear him talking about you to someone else you would probably ask if he were talking about you.
Id give anything to hear my dad yell again just so I could yell back mind you lol In fact you know in all the time he was alive I got to 16 before I yelled back I will never forget his face his jaw kind of dropped and he walked off his little girl finally got her back bone giggle.



Needless to say, hubby and I had a long talk when he came home. After he stopped laughing he swore to me that he had no idea that tape was in the house. Still don't believe him 100% 13 years after the fact.
Men have a great nack of doing that don't they :D

Synn wake up love ;)

Allheart confession # 2.

I was hmmmm maybe 15 or 16. It was my sister's wedding outside. Hot August day ( I am pretty sure it was August), Mom was in her 40s and my sister getting married, was 19.
The most beautiful bride I have ever seen to this day. They were in love. And Everyone was happy (some more then others... but I am getting to that). Mom thought she as done, with her "cycle". You girls know what I mean. It hadn't shown for months and months. Until...

THAT DAY... (of course)

So she had to leave to change clothes... And there is Sweet, adorable and VERY thirsty Allheart (lmao). I promise you that beautiful fountain, honestly, I thought it was only orange juice... slirp... slirp... drink drink... table... music... Allheart on top of table dancing... (pg rated now :) I was only 15). And there was Dad, clapping and singing right with me.
We were having a blast ( I don't even remember - other then this sensation of being removed from my body when being taken off the table... you guessed it... Mom returned)

Mom was soooooooooooooooo stricted and Dad was just a good man and boy did he catch holy heck for my little stunt, and boy was I a sick girl for a day or two, or was it a week??

Yup, I actually was a table top dance for a couple of hours... hmmmm think it's time to update the resume.

Xo

Wake up?

I should be sleeping!

Okay Allheart, your confession prompted me to confess one of my worst sins, really, I might never be able to redeem myself.

I'm lutheran, lutherans go through confirmation when they turn 14, after two years of bible class etc. Anyway, it was my confirmation, I was 14, relatives flew in from Germany for the big event, my parents had a party at the house afterwards, at least 50 people came, including the Pastor. Anyway, my Dad had put a few bottles of wine downstairs so that guests wouldn't have to come upstairs for a refill. My cousins and I were downstairs, saw the wine and indulged in a bit of drinking. I was three sheets to the wind when our Pastor came downstairs to congratulate me on being confirmed. Apparently I gave him a big hug and a huge kiss, smack on the lips. He smiled, patted me on the head, went upstairs and told my Dad that he might want to take the wine away from the kids. Let's just say that going to church was a bit uncomfortable after that.

Yikes, all the things I've forgotten about. This is a great thread.

Ok, if we are talking drunk stories. I have gotten drunk only once in my life. We were away in the Poconos for New Years Eve with another couple we are friends with. After the party I drove the other couple back to their room dropping then off right at the door of their room. The problem was that the roadway didn't go to the door of their room (oops). At least that's what they told me I did. The next morning I didn't even remember leaving the party.

LMAO!! THAT is awesome!! Seriously... the best story. EVER.

Im just sat here giggling and thinking of what to post next, ill be back later Theo has his first set of jabs today xx

Hmmm, I've been thinking and I can't come up with anything yet. I know I've had some good ones, but I just can't think of any.

But... I'm sure CBW will probably remember one or two of my blonde moments. LOL

I have to say... I'm really glad that none of my RL friends know about me here :)

I have a LOT of bad stories about me, none that I want to tell about myself. You might not respect me after you read them!

LOL Synn who says we do anyway ;)

J my love where have you been hiding don't rely on me to remember anything at the moment I can't even remember where I put my hairbrush tee hee

Ok... I have a story...

I was 12 years old at the time. I was in a motorhome with my grandfather, grandmother, younger sister, and younger cousin. We were on our way back from Niagra Falls. Crossing the border, some guys (cops, mounties, or something) stopped us and were asking questions. They look into the back where us kids were sitting. The one guy said... "Kids, are you related to these people?"

And almost in unison, all three of us kids look at each other and say... "NOooooooo, we don't know them. They kidnapped us!!!!!" My grandfather looks back at us really slow and just glares. Then I chimed in with... "And they have a bunch of marijuana back here."

Lol... for years my grandparents actually laughed at that story.

Mafia, tee hee, reminds me of the time my Dad was pulled over for speeding, I was around 7 years old. Anyway, the police officer came up to the driver side window and asked my Dad if he knew why he was being pulled over, my Dad said he didn't have a clue. I piped up from the back seat "Sure you do Daddy, you were speeding." The cop laughed so hard he decided to let my Dad off with a warning. Afterward my Dad asked why I ratted him out, I said "You always say not to lie." He didn't have a come back for that one.

Keep them coming, this is triggering lots of memories.

I remember my parents left me in the BRAND new station wagon when I was about 4 years old...


I chewed the whole entire front of the dash board off... LOL

Don't leave Start in the car alone, especially not for more that 2 or 3 minutes, how dare them!

J my love where have you been hiding

I've been hiding in my books. OMG, this semester is rough. If Ben knew what I made on the last exam he'd ban me until after graduation. 27 out of 32 nursing students are hanging on by a thread right now, and I am one of them. :mad:

J, keep working hard, we are all behind you... push push push!

Don't worry J9 you'll do fine, we believe in you.

Go J Go, Go J Go!

See, your own little cheering section.

LOL yeah call Synn the women that abandened her two friends hahahahaha ;)

Yeah, yeah.

I'm a horrible person.

Want to beat me and whip me and do other mean things to me?

LOL yeah call Synn the women that abandened her two friends hahahahaha ;)

Awwww! Synn is the type to being four hundred places at once, but it feels like she is with only one!

Oh... I thought of one...

We had a pool party for my high school graduation party... about 75 or so people there... I had my sexy black bikini on to show off to my boyfriend. Well, I took a dive off the diving board into the deep end... swam to the shallow end and walked up the steps. Dad handed me 2 band aids and said "I think you might want to cover up your mosquito bites!"

My string bikini top had separated and I didn't notice, but practically the whole party did. How embarrassing!!

Synn is such a sweet heart, I adore her. She's the kind of person that can tell you to go to He*l and make you be happy to be on your way. I tell them to go to He*l and they say, right back at you. What am I doing wrong?:D

Apparently, you're not crawling into your shell for 2 months.

Laura, you know I love you.

How can I possibly make it up to you?

Apparently, you're not crawling into your shell for 2 months.

Lunch break is over, time to crawl back into the books to study to retake my test on Monday. I got to pass this one.

6 Weeks and 1 day, and I will be a graduate nurse!! :D

Oh..... I thought of one....

I don't know what would have been more embarrassing, what you revealed or your Dad's comments about them! <EG>

I like to buy pretty underthings

It doesn't need to be naughty or sexy---just pretty and feminine.
Hey, me too!!

Honestly, that's all I ask for on fathers day and my birthday. Pretty underthings.

For the wife of course. Dirty little minds.

Think I'm kidding?? Who needs a silk tie on fathers day when I can get a matching bra and panties?

Funny things I've done... God I'm such an idiot, there's so much to choose from.

Embarrassing moment of the week:

Great dinner out, our anniversary, leaving in the car, feeling a bit gassy. I'm the kind of guy wholl leave the house to avoid napalming a room due if gassy, so I'm doing my best.

Get a cough in my throat that won't stop. Suddenly a *blip* comes out. Mkay... it hits me like a fermented skunk. And I say, as I throw down the window, "im sorry, i coughed"... meaning the cough forced the event...

To which my smarter, prettier, and wittier wife said "you COUGHED? that was a cough?! i have breath mints. take the box!"

I wish I could have *edit* right said fred *edit* play "im too sexy" in the background as I wrote that...

Right Said Fred.

Stupid moment with a baby

So I'm not sure if the kid messed his diaper and so I check. Now, normal people pull and peek. I had the brilliant idea to stick my finger in the diaper... BAD IDEA.

Again, my smarter, prettier, wittier wife sees the event and predicament and asks "how was that ever a good idea?" to which I stupidly reply "it always worked before!"...

Meaning id spun the chamber and pulled the trigger a few times and it always hadn't fired.

These are the moments she tells me "honey, you're pretty"...

So many more...

KP- LMAO, you should meet my husband, I've never met anyone with more gas issues then him. It's so bad that my 5 year old will ask him not to eat certain foods because she knows that he'll get gas from them.

A few weeks ago he had two burgers with tons of onions on them. That night we crawled into bed and our younger dog decided that he'd disobey the rules and sneak up on the bed. He plopped his furry butt right between the two of us. My husband raised his blanket, put it over the dog and let her rip. I've never seen that dog run so fast in his life, he also yelped. I can't tell you how bad it smelled because I ran after the dog, I know better to stick around after that. :)

Not really my confession giggle but funny none the least my sister wasn't popular that's for sure.
Every year when I was a kid we went to the coast to stay with my aunt and that perticular year my sister stayed home.
So we get back and as usual my mum goes off on a cleaning sprea and I hear her in the bathroom scrubbing away and she says uuuugggghhhhh as she is pulling the hair out of the plug hole.
Later on she says my god there were some thick hairs in that plug Jo my sister laughs and says that will have been the spider legs then apparently she washed a spider down and put the plug in and left it for mum to find hehehehe
Mum was not amused she really hated spiders...

Hahaha, that's cute CBW, DRANO kills all stuff that goes in the drain...
Reminds me of my little Maxy costing us a hundred and twenty bucks to get out all the little spray bottles out of the toilet that he flushed! Or my friends son about ten years ago flushed a big ole potato... LOL

My son tried to flush a bath towel when he was two. We thought he was going potty, he wanted privacy so we let him have it. Five minutes later we hear "oh, oh." I come running to see him repeatedly flushing the toilet. "Mommy, I keep trying but it won't go down." Apparently there wasn't any toilet paper on the roll so he decided to use the towel to wipe himself, afterwards he thought it only appropriate to flush it. What a mess that was. Oh, we threw the towel away, YUCK!

Hehehehehehe can't exactly be mad over the towel thing bless him, millie is obsessed with the toilet she loves to sit and contemplate life...

I think that Millie and I have something in common.

Let's face it, with two very active kids the only time I have a chance to think is while sitting on my porcelain throne.:D

Hehehehehe how do you think start feels with her lot??
Me I just close the door gates and hide some place else for ten minnutes I used to use my smoke time to escape but not anymore nearly a year since I quit.

Good for you, I'm in the process of quitting. Down to 5 smokes a day, can't wait to be done with that nasty habit.

I don't have baby gates anymore, and the bathroom isn't working so well anymore, my son knows how to pick the lock.:eek:

Lmao oh my so you can't even p in peace blimey.
Ah I just went cold turkey bam gone and I haven't looked back since bloody horrid habbit and costs sooooo much money its scary.

I still find my peace going outside to have a smoke, but that is soon coming to a hault.
The kids walk in on me I get no privacy...
The cutest thing is when Maxy goes poop, I always tell him to tell me before he goes so I know he is in there, one time he was in the back bathroom, and he never told me he was going, I finally heard him saying "MOM I'M DONE!" as loud as his little voice could carry. I asked him how long he was sitting there and he said long enough to count to a hundred and sing a hundred songs... lol
Poor baby!

Okay, this is how old I am.

I remember when cigarettes cost $3.00 for a pack of 25, movies cost $1.50 at the theatre, and gas was 30 cents a litre (sorry, I'm Canadian, we work in litres).

Yup, I'm old. Sigh.

No you are not... you are mature! (Maturing)you got a long long way to go...

Aw, thanks Starty, you are just the sweetest!

My three bunnies are preparing for Sunday, at least my daughter thinks so. She just told me that the Easter Bunny doesn't have to come to our house, we already have three Easter Bunnies!

Your as old as you feel ben tells me he feels 31 frequently ;)

Right now I feel about 10 but I think that's the wine giggle

Is this a good place to admit that from the moment I saw ben I knew he would be mine poor sod didn't really stand a chance tee hee

No kidding, we are with you Bed, you poor sod!
LOL
CBW, he is a lucky man to be able to have a lovely wife with two wonderful children..

Aw, that's nice. And I think he should consider himself lucky to have a wonderful wife like you.

Did you say wine? Oooh, that sounds good. Too early to have a glass were I am, but I'll keep it in mind for later.

Hehehehehe this isn't any wine ;) trust me its heavy stuff I'm feeling rather warm from the after glow :D

I don't know about wonderful a bit insane and a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic but hell who isn't these days

It's baby brain, we've all been there. They say that your mind goes a bit blank after the birth of a child. They also say that it doesn't last forever. I'll let you know when I get mine back, hasn't happened yet.:D

Well, I've got to go do the Easter shopping. Take care all, and stay out of trouble.:)

I watched I Am Legend last night and got scared... LOL
It was a good movie but holy cow scary... which reminds me being about 7 or 8 and my dad thought it would be a good idea to make some cup cakes and watch "Carrie", we all were downstairs in the basement and I thought I could handle it...
Nope, not me, I sat through it not wanting my sister or brothers to know that I couldn't take it but I just don't think I was ever the same after that. I didn't even want to go to high school after I saw that movie. Poor me, I was ruined!
I used the bathroom as an excuse to run upstairs trailing cupcake crumbs all the way there... I still want to watch that movie again, but it still frightens me to death!

In reading your confessions I was reminded of a few of my stupid little embarrassing moments.

The first ones I remembered involved driving my car. I once dropped someone off at the front door of their dorm at Toledo University. It was up a big hill, and was dark... as I was leaving, I reallized that I had driven on the side walk... I honestly had not been drinking... I was just from the country and was used to narrow roads... I wondered why all those idiots were walking in the middle of the street at night!! I asked why my friend hadn't said something, and they just laughed saying they didn't want to walk. Well, it was a bit more embarrassing going back down the hill.

Now another incident when I was on my way to go drinking many years ago just before Christmas, I drove right through an intersection with a flashing red stoplight. I totally saw the light and remember clearly thinking what a funny place to put such a christmas decoration?? My friends in the car with me started saying it was time to cut me off, and I hadn't had my first drink that night...

It's amazing I never got into trouble with those things... but jeesh, I don' t think I want my son to drive till he is 30?

I hope not many people are your passengers, how is your driving now? LOL loved the stories...

Haven't totaled a car in almost 20 years... and no accidents either... just a bad habit of not wearing my seatbelt and getting tickets for that which has probably cost me $500 over the years... just think if I had invested that money I might have $100 by now... with my financial mind! (or hair brained ideas... )

I know all aobut those seat belt tickets, my husband has come home with a few... LOL
Be safe silly, or is it cause you don't want to be strapped in when your car blows up and you can't get out fast enough? That is his excuse... hehe

No, my biggest excuse is forgetfulness... so many other things on my mind... such as funny stuff I have read on here! I'm trying to remember to be a good boy about clicking in though.

Click it, or ticket! LOL
I wear mine every time I get in the car, how could I forget, four sweet little reminders... "mom, get yer seat belt on" LOL:)

Ain't that the truth. Mom, you forgot your seat belt!

When we went to Germany we rented a car that had an automatic seat belt, you know, the kind that is always clicked and just the top part moves to lock you in. Well, my husband almost got strangled by the seat belt. After I stopped laughing I did help him.

Reminds me of another story. Winter in Canada, -30 degrees celsius, hubby, then boyfriend, and I decide to take a chance and drive to the video store to rent a movie. We get there, find a movie, go back to the car and RRRRRR, it won't start. Hubby gets out to use the phone and call AMA, he leaves the vehicle, closes the door, I remember something I want to ask so I open the window to tell him, he's GONE! I lean over to look outside the driver side window, he's flat on his back. I say "Did you slip on the ice?" he says, sarcastically "No, I just decided I wanted to make a snow angel." I closed the window and LMAO!

I have an adiction to ebay i love to buy other peoples crap and re sell it :eek:

At least you didn't say you were having an affair with the UPS guy. They claim that women who were addicted to QVC had their husbands accusing them of buying so much they had to have been having an affair with the UPS guy.

My motto is I give a crap about your scrap and all that other crapola!


I know all aobut those seat belt tickets, my husband has come home with a few...LOL
Be safe silly, or is it cause you don't wanna be strapped in when your car blows up and you can't get out fast enough? That is his excuse...hehe

That is my neighbors excuse for carrying a knife he says might need it to cut the seat belt in an emergency

Now you've got me wondering if I'm ever going to find my Swiss Army knife again... I miss that little toothpick as well as the tweezers! I once performed emergency surgery with it... well... I popped a blister anyway... ewwww... but that ought to count for something.

This is what I preform MY emergency surgeries with

THINK BIG ONEGUY!

LMAO, you guys are way to funny!

Blisters, heck, what about splinters? I once pulled out a whole dang tree out of my sons foot with my bare hands... LOL

HAHAHA... I got speeding ticket incident. I flirted my way out of a speeding ticket when I was 20. Not proud of it necessarily but kind of and only because I was like "alright... im the bomb! What do you want from me I was 20! And oh and just a few years ago I was pulled over for going 10 miles over the limit and I cried. But that day was the PILL of all days and all I wanted to do was get home.. NOTHING went right that day and furthermore I had the biggest fight with my husband (at the time) just before I left work so that was the LAST thing I needed. So the flood gates opened uncontrollably. The cop pitied me and let me go with a warning.

Let's see... I hate cleaning. My house is clean but I dislike cleaning it. Anyway the other day I was cleaning house and tried vacuuming the floor without plugging the vacuum in.

Don't feel bad I was trying to do laundry the past month and thought the water hose froze.
The other day, tired of going to the laundramat and it being a nice day couldn't figure out why the hose hadn't thawed. Checked it out and it wasn't even plugged in!!

Hahahaha, reminds me...
I had to vacuum before my mom got home so I decided I would just make the streaks on the floor, never plugged it in... why? Why didn't I just plug it in, not like she didn't see the dirt wasn't picked up?? How stupid is that? I mean I pushed and pulled that vacuum over the whole thing... sometimes I tell you!

Okay, we really aren't that bad girls, here's a story to make all of us feel better.

When I was in high school I had a friend whose father wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, if you get what I'm saying. Anyway one spring, when the snow had melted and it was lawn cleanup time, he went outside with the vacuum cleaner, and, yup, he vacuumed the entire lawn. The neighbors all grabbed a drink and sat on their porches to watch, after all, it's not every day you see someone vacuuming his yard, is it?

it's not every day you see someone vacuuming his yard, is it?

I have done that!! :D :mad: :eek: :rolleyes: :D

Shop vac for shattered glass!

No Help - A shop vac is still a bit silly, but he used his regular vac to clean the grass. Yup, apparently it was really dirty, being that it's grown in dirt and all. He also painted his driveway with regular household paint. He was a card all right, he was also a few cards shy of a deck, not the brightest crayon in the box, not the sharpest tool in the shed, a few bricks shy of a load, I digress, I think you all get the picture.:) :p :D :eek:

Peek-a-boo...

I enjoy hiding vegetable purée in cookies and brownies and never telling my husband I do it... lol. He claims to hate all the veggies I use... LOL... I got the idea from jerry seinfelds wife...

Also I have an obsession with my penmanship... whether it's a note to myself, or my hubby, or to anyone doesn't look just right I will rip it up an re write it as often as needed until the handwriting looks just right... I think its borderline OCD.

Penmanship is a long forgotten art... keep it up Al!
I have a great aunt who is the same, and we all love her penmanship, she will be remembered for that among other things!
Nice to see you! How are you and the family? You have been missed and thought about often by me!
Happy Easter everyone!

I know someone who has pretended to be in labour to avoid a speeding fine I'm just greatfull I don't drive ;)

Good to see you Al xxx

We used to vacume the pub garden on a Sunday morning there was so much broken glass it was the only way to really get it all up it used to tickle me though watching one of the lads vacuming the garden hehehehehe

Hooray!! I've redeemed myself. 92% on the make-up exam. Whew!!

Sweet. Good job!

Good work J, really GREAT!

Congrats J9, way to go.

By the way, my son walked by when I was posting, saw your avatar, and asked why someone was hurting that poor bunny.

Congrats, J9!

Thanks guys. It was rough tough stuff we had to learn, but I guess I finally got it. All about mechanical ventilation, preload, afterload, congestive heart failure, pulmonary embolis.

But, I spent my weekend away from here and in the books, LOL

Thank flipping god for that well done lady :)

Awww J way to go girl... way to go!! Be proud... open that front door and scream... :):)
Love you sweetheart.

My son is 15 months old, and if I'm getting ready in the bathroom and I'm tired of hearing him whine... I let him play in the toilet...
He finds it amazing, and I don't have to hear him scream (btw--i'm a cleaning nazi)

Oh, and be careful, toilets are the #1 drowning place of all children in the home. All a child of that age needs is 1 cup of water to drown.

MMMM that kind of worried me to I have to say the toilet just isn't a play place neither is the bathroom or any unsupervised water area scary if you ask me.

I know CBW, I would never let any of my children play in the toilet whether I was in there with them or not.

How are you this beautiful morning?

Reminded me of the time when my guy (son) was little enough to climb into the toilet and sit down! Thank god it was clean! It was a shock but kind of funny to see how much fun he was having. He got to take a nice playtime and swim in the bath tub after that!

Man, that would scare the he! Out of me!!

Me j I'm OK can't really say the trueth here far to many ears and eyes and sir theo is screeching ready for his next feed.
How's you?

I'm okay, but have to start studying for the next test on Monday. Remember I told you this would be the WORST semester of the whole 2 years? Well, boy was that the truth!!

It was scarey, and I should have said the bath was immediately after as in as soon as he was seen, and before he had time to dry off!

All right, enough toilet talk... :)
EEEWWWWW!
I love big empty boxes! (keeping kids busy and happy at the moment) :)

I'm okay, but have to start studying for the next test on Monday. Remember I told ya this would be the WORST semester of the whole 2 years? Well, boy was that the truth!!!

But its nearly over and you will soon be a pro :)

My son has been playing in our empty computer box for a week now...
Congrats J... I know Im late, bt my time is very limited these days.

Hey Al, long time no see!! How are you? How are the kiddos? And the new addition?

Ebay add...

Here we have one husband not in bad condition careful owner for the last 10 years who feels its just time for a newer model all genuine offers considered...

Now do you think its worth posting giggle

I don't know, I think it would be more effective if you offered them money to take him. Hee, hee.

I have told people that I put the kids and hubby up for bid on Ebay...
BUT I had no takers... BECAUSE THEY WOULD BE NUTS TO BUY INTO THIS!!

Hehehhehehehe I can but dream can't I ;)

Nice to hear the boxes work for you too AL, so nice to hear from you!
CBW, yes, you have every right to keep on dreaming! :)

When I was around 4 my parents bought a new refrigerator. Mom turned the box into a play house. She cut off the top and fashioned a roof and then covered the entire thing with left over wallpaper. It was the hit of the neighborhood and lasted for years, until I accidentally left it out in the rain. Ah, memories.

Ohhh that is great, wall paper huh? Good idea, very good idea, we always just paint or color ours but I bet the wall paper made it even stronger...
We had one from our freezer, it last days not years, but it sure was fun!

Someone left the box out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
Cause it took so long to make it
And I'll never find that recipe again...

:D

Scott- Love it, I can almost hear you singing it. Oooh, don't quite your day job.:D

With you playing your thingy in the back ground it wouldn't be so bad though Alty! :)

My accordion? Not a bad idea. How about it Scott want to start a band. We can call ourselves the "Tone Deafs".:p

Scott- Love it, I can almost hear you singing it. Oooh, don't quite your day job.:D

OK lets see if this works

For your enjoyment (or disgust) (http://www.massparkbikeclub.org/newsletters/audio.zip)


This is an MP3. Download it unzip and enjoy (if you can) <eg>

Please Scott, don't quit your day job!!

LOLOLOL, that was great, and if you ask me not too bad either... we need the accordion to top it off!

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!!

... as I hide in humiliation...

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...as I hide in humiliation...
Aww, come on give him a little credit! :D

I would show you all me playing the accordion, but really, I want to keep some of my dignity. But Scott, wow, really, I don't know what to say, do you want honesty? Or should I lie?

Lie through your teeth :D

Scott, that was the most wonderful song I've ever heard. In fact, I am going to burn it onto a disc so that I can listen to it in my car, over and over again. You have a God given talent, it would be a shame to hide it any longer. You are a singer, you really are.

Hey, you asked for it, and I have a hubby so I no how to pour it on thick.

Oh, Scott, that was wonderful! :D

But blondie's reaction was priceless!!

He Jillian, I want to thank you for letting that person know that she was being inappropriate on the etiquette post. I wasn't online at the time, which is a good thing because I probably would have had a few choice words of my own. Big White Rat, that's my bunny she was talking about. And my mommy should spank me, if my mom was still alive I'm not the one she'd be aiming for.

Anyway, thanks.

Sorry all, I promise I won't change the subject again, but who knows when I'll run into Jillian again.

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...as I hide in humiliation...


I think I just about creased up at this aren't dads great at ashaming us huh ;) just wait he will be on YouTube soon ;)

Scott I have to say if I close my eyes I see kermit singing giggle

The post was already closed by the time I came back and saw what had been written.
I would love to get a chance to tell that person that my avatar is not a white rat, he's my youngest fur baby. How dare they.

I'm okay, I'm over it, really, all is well. :)

Hey Scott, do you have anymore of your music stylings for us today? I played it for my kids and they wanted to know "Is someone hitting him while he's singing? He sounds like an angry cat." Sorry, kids are honest aren't they?

How did you record that and then post it? If I knew how I might actually record myself playing a song on the accordion. Maybe we can start a band. Anyone else play an instrument or sing? Keep in mind, you pretty much have to be terrible in order to play in this band, so no serious musicians or singers need apply.

How the hell can anyone say that's a rat my god they need there eyes testing that's just um really wrong shall we say lol

Just a friendly note to you all but there's a happy birthday allheart thred in the lounge go wish the nicest member ever a happy day xxx

I used Roxio's Media Creator 8 software. It has an audio capture module and I used a USB headset with mic. The software records in MP3 format so I just saved it as that. The hardest part was finding a place to upload it so it could be downloaded. The second hardest part was listening to it after I recorded it ;)

OK, I'll have to see if I can convert the karaoke video I have. Maybe I'll YouTube it.

Scott that would just be really rather amusing and you just know your daughter will go into hybernation tee hee

Scott, I anxiously await the YouTube Karaoke video. You might want to warn your daughter before you post it. I don't want the poor girl to have a coronary on AMHD.

I'm going to see if I can record myself playing the accordion, no visual, just audio, believe me listening to it will be bad enough, having to see it too will be torture. Yikes, I don't think hubby will be happy, there's a reason he hides the accordion in the furthest corner of our crawl space.:D

You're welcome, Altenweg!

So is this thread going to turn into an amateur musicians gathering place? I have ZERO musical talent - I might have to unsubscribe! :D

Amateur musicians, hee, hee. How about want to be amateur musicians. Pick up a triangle, tap, tap, tap, and you're in the group. No talent required. Really.

Lol I think the word amateur might be kind ;) could be an amusing way of starting an amhd YouTube thred though

You're welcome, Altenweg!

So is this thread going to turn into an amateur musicians gathering place? I have ZERO musical talent - I might have to unsubscribe! :D

I started a new thread for anyone to display their artistic ability (or lack thereof).

I ran around the ICU today humming Beatles tunes... Not good.

OK, I'll have to see if I can convert the karaoke video I have. Maybe I'll YouTube it.

Dad, three words:

DON'T YOU DARE!!

Ooooh... that sounds like a CHALLENGE!

Dad, three words:

DON'T YOU DARE!!!!

That would be a red rag to a bull to me that word dare is the worst one to use id do it now just to shame you lol

J at least you were humming babes ;)

Synn where you been?

Moderating, and trying to keep up at work with all the crap I have to do.

Yesterday I tried to take a day off from everything, but my stupid computer kept calling and tempting me, so I popped in and answered a couple questions. I keep TRYING to behave myself, too, but that isn't working that well either ;)

You should host the first ever amhd idol... Giggle

Giggle but who would we have as judges??

I'm sure a few people would volunteer as judges. I have a feeling that they'd put Simon Cowell to shame.:)

LOL that wouldn't be hard ben would make a good judge lol but he is very likely to use rude words

Oooooh!

I have no talents, but I'm good at being a callous judge! Pick me! Pick me!

See, I knew there'd be volunteers.

Synnen, can I get you anything (kiss, kiss, suck up) flowers, candy, you name it. :D

I'll wow you with my lack of musical talent. Were's my accordion, did hubby hide it again? Jeesh, I think he's trying to tell me something.:rolleyes:

LOL I won't go into what I will bribe our syn with lol

Bribing Syn is easy, if you know EXACTLY what to bribe her with. But I'm not telling ;)

Ooh, J9, what do I need to give you in order for you to tell me what to give Synn? Did that make any sense? Ahh, this lack of caffeine is killing me.

Lol not likely Alty that's gang info only lol

I'm not telling :p

Are you going to tell CBW?

No bloody way that's private and confidential information lol I'm open to huge bribes though :D

Hot damn.

Who knew so many people would want to bribe me?

Ah now look synn is getting all excited giggle

You are naughty, teasing me like this.

Oh you so love it

Gosh, I guess I'm not privy to the secret gang info. Who do I have to slay in order to get into this gang? Is there a spot open?

CBW - you said you could possibly be bribed, how huge a bribe would it take? I'm really curious now.

Oh and remember judges, this contest is for people with absolutely no musical talent whatsoever, so the best don't win, it's the worst that will walk away with the prize. Hmm, maybe I don't have to bribe anyone after all, I think I'm bad enough to win all by my lonesome.;)

Youb 3 are a riot!

Alkalineangel - We do have our moments don't we?

I've got to run all, eye surgery this afternoon. Take care I'll talk to you all much later.

Alty Out.

Ah you see Al is actually part of the old gang lol we just all went on a break for a while giggle

You don't have to slay anyone you just have to go through an initiation ceremony giggle

And bring us a SHRUBBERY!
