Hey Sneezy, how did she know about your bro? Has she been spying on us in the café?

I think you must have hit the mark when you said your 15 year old brother had better grammar... for her to throw that in your face... wow...

I guess when you can't attack the person, attack the family? I don't know. I'm assuming he/she is looking around our profiles/messages to see what we're talking about... quite possibly to look for ammo.

Svettie: in case you're here... I'm going to throw out some bad grammar usage... so maybe you can hit me with it:

I go college. It make me smart.

LOL!

I just answered spitvenom's question... I was going to write "Cause its what I is"... couldn't... :D

Can someone add straight jackets on Alty's list of supplies? We might need them, lol

LOL!

I just answered spitvenom's question... I was going to write "Cause its what I is"... couldn't... :D

LOL... you should've! I like all the SMRT people here! :D

Remember Starby... breathe, RIP, bubbles, bourbon... repeat as necessary...

HAHA! Tiny bubbles... in the wine... makes me haaaappyyy... makes me feel fine!

One Zinfandel Blush pleeeease! ;)

Mmm... me too...

::hic::

:D

*sigh*

It's that time of day, all.

I'm ordering a calzone on my way home... going to get in my sweats and hole up for the night. Sneezy, drop by with that brother of yours for some Cherry pie and Coffee... :D

OOh calzone!. darn it HC... now I want calzone...

You have yourself a wonderful weekend!

Calzone, cherry pie, and coffee... The ingredients of a relaxing evening... ooo... and Corona. :)

You have yourself a wonderful weekend!

Thanks Sneezy Sweet... you do the same! Enjoy that little brother of yours.

JR Kisses :D

Have a good wkd Chicky... thanks for the wine! Have fun with them bubbles... and the bubbly! :D

Thanks Starby...

Remember my four step plan if Svetters comes back...

Chicky, out!

... or the Corona! hehe.

Yep... breathe, breathe, bubbles, bubbles! Was that it? Did I forget anything?

:) bourbon and the RIP button :)

NEVER forget the bourbon!

Now, I'm really out of here!

Ohhh, yes! How silly of me. Never forget the bourbon... got it! I'll be RIP-PED enough after that to remember who crazy Svetter is! :D

I'm out for now too! Have a good night with bro Sneezy! Catch you later on I'm sure! :)

Well, on a lighter note...

My trip to Europe's planned out (almost)!

I booked most of my flights... just looking for ONE more flight.

I'm a little scared as American's been canceling flights left and right... so we'll see how that goes.

Currently working on my paper... going out to dinner with the little one... what IS there to do with a 15-year old on a Friday night..

OOH! My camera broke recently, and it's been... 4 years, so I figured, why not.. and I bought a new camera. Then I found out that the broken camera actually has a recall on the exact problem I was having with it!! So... I ship it back out, and they send me a newer camera!. so now I have two.

Bye starby! See you later!

I'll Take the One u don't WAnt!

Hey there Alty! How did your appt go?

Hey Starby. My appointment went well, 20/20 vision, still a bit blurry around the edges but it's only been 2 weeks. They think they'll need to operate on the tear duct eventually, he's going to refer me to a specialist, hopefully I won't need surgery, I hate eye surgery.:(

Guy, are you here too, I saw that you are online.

Hey Svetlana's post is closed. That women doesn't have the right to voice an opinion, she is never unbiased and always rude. Still upset that she referred to me as her evil twin. I'm not that bad am I?

All right then, I'll get myself a Honey Ale, stick a couple deep dish pizza's in the oven, plug a nickel in the jukebox, and do the limbo with the pool boys! Nice uniforms you gave them Alty... I see you didn't spend a whole lot on material :D

Oh you should've been around this afternoon for the rest of it!

Material? Watch, it's transparent in the right light. ;)

... and we've got a sneaking suspicion that she had been reading what we wrote in the café... and probably in here too, lol

Well you should see what happens when they go under the limbo stick, lol

Svet's here? Ooooh, come into my parlor said the spider to the fly. I'd love a chance to get at her on my home turf. She wouldn't dare, she just acts tough.

She had the nerve to say to me... (I can't remember the exact quote, but man was I ticked) Do you really call yourself a Canadian?

I was ready to scratch myself through the screen, so Chicky had to calm me down with bubbles and bourbon, lol

She was just nasty to Sneezy too. She was calling him imature, and all sorts of things. She's just a little off her "tilt a whirl", lol

Honey, don't become me, trust me, not good. I know that she's annoying, and I probably will give her sh*t the next time she compares me to her, but I think that she loves the attention and loves getting people angry, we're giving her what she wants. Bourbon and bubbles is a good way to go Starby.

However, having said that, if you ever need backup just let me know, you know I'll be there in a heartbeat, so will Sneezy and the others. Nobody messes with my friends, Nobody!

:)... I know you will! And I shouldn't have given her any of my time... but I was sticking up for Sneezy too. I know he can handle himself... but no one messes with my buds either!

I'm cracking a cold one! Care to join me? :D

The page is still up Alty! She is back answering, and just quoted me.

Oh no, not again. Ahhhh, okay, Alty to the rescue, don't worry, I'll give her a piece of my mind, hmm, can I spare it? ;)

Is it under Smokes and Alcohol? I can't post on it, I think it's closed. Are you sure it's open again?

What's happenin' here tonight? Got any root beer?

Let me go check the time on it again... it sure wasn't long ago. And I don't know why I spelled the other one Clough... my mistake, lol You think I would remember that one ;)

Of course we have root bear, no pub is complete without? How many wondergirl?

Did you notice the pool boys?

I'm sure Alty... 9:49pm

The pool boys look cold. I thought I saw some goosebumps on one of them.

Just one root beer, Alty. Is there anything to eat?

Hey there Wondergirl! :)

Nachos with extra cheese? We're in the process of having steak and lobster on the menu, let me see if that's set up yet. Also we have beer nuts, who doesn't love a good nut? Hee, hee.

Starby, I looked again and I can't post, don't know what's going on. Can you post?

The pool boys look cold. I thought I saw some goosebumps on one of them.

Just one root beer, Alty. Is there anything to eat?

Is that what that is, LOL Oh I'm bad! :D... sorry!

I may start another bubbles and bourbon order... but I'll see!

Starby, you are so Canadian, love it, we always notice bumps on men, don't we. Oh we are evil little girls aren't we? ;)

Hey, it's a pub, we're supposed to talk dirty, aren't we? Were's M tonight, oh yeah it's Saturday in Aussie land.

As I look closer, I see it's only one goosebump. Hmmmm, you might have something there, star.

Yes, we are darn proud Canadians. I don't know what her point was there, but whatever.

No I can't post anything either. I wonder why that would happen? Not that I want to even deal with her anymore, but hmmm?

HAHA! Those pool boys have been swimming in cold water again. We need to turn up the heat girls! ;)

You can still rate Svetlana's answer though Alty! I can't because I have to spread more rep. ;)

How about making it a heated pool?

Should I try posting wherever this thread is that you are talking about?

Or we could join them in the jacuzzi... but that might be a little TOO hot. Poor boys! I think we should carry on with the limbo contest! Alty ran out of material for their uniforms. Where are their palm leaves Alty? They are suppose to be fanning us!

Wondergirl, here's the link, but I'm pretty sure it's closed.

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/other-law/smokes-alcohol-202420.html

Yup the pool boys are cold, poor guys, come over, Auntie Alty will keep you warm. /wicked grin.

How bout making it a heated pool?

Should I try posting wherever this thread is that you are talking about?

Sure, give it a try. I don't know if Alty can post it here for you. I have to learn how to do it. I don't know how! :(

Heading of thread and in which category?

Under Law... Smokes and Alcohol.

Starby, go to your profile page, it should be there, or go to the actual thread. Right click on the title, go to copy shortcut, left click. To post the link right click and the left click on post. Voilà, you have posted a link.

Wondergirl, here's the link again;

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/other-law/smokes-alcohol-202420.html

I really think it's closed, only it doesn't say so.

Cool, thanks hun!

No prob, that's why we're here after all, to answer questions. If you have any problems let me know, I'll walk you through it sweetie.

Wondergirl, ready for another root beer. Personally I'm cutting out the root and just going for the beer. :)

I think I'll switch to a tropical drink! Something with an umbrella perhaps! HA HA... fooled you... I'll have another beer minus the root too. WG can have all of our roots... I don't even know what that means... maybe I don't need another, LOL! Chicky was feeding me bourbon all day... It's all her fault, hehehe!

I'm going for another beer, not my fault if I start not making any sense. Does that make sense? I've lost my sense. Darnit!

I just put some nickels in the jukebox... any requests?

Where do you think you lost it? I go look for you... is it bigger than a bread box?

Something dancy, one of the pool boys is giving me the eye and I'd like to dance with him. Oh, oh, here comes hubby, quick pool boy, dance baby! Alty + Beer = naughty, thank goodness Sneezy, Westy and M aren't here, or worse, underage Guy, Alty smarten up you wicked thing.

Grabbing a smoke and a beer, back in a minute Starby.

Is there a public washroom in this establishment?

How 'bout we start with some country! Maybe Alty's Pub's theme song. "I Love This Bar"... my kind of place! Will that do?

Is there a public washroom in this establishment?

Ask the pool boys... they'll escort you! :D

That was quite a thread, the svetty one. Sneezy did well. Everyone did well. Wouldn't it have been easier for her to call the authorities or even write something for the op-ed page of the newspaper?

No kidding! You should have seen some of her other questions. Just as bad! One about dogs wearing seatbelts, and another about meeting men on the internet and agreeing to marry them. But not meeting them until the wedding day.

Yup Svets a weird one, not doubt about it. Not at all happy with her.

Wondergirl, was the bathroom clean, I didn't get to it today, hope it was okay. :)

I found the Comet cleanser and a rag and swished out the toilet, but you'll need Lime-away for the stains. Why is the bathroom so large?

Cuz we're girlz! lol ;)

How big is the men's room?

I'm listening to a good ole song! I don't get to listen to country too often, but I've got Toby Keith on. "Find out who your friends are" is a really good song! Don't think I've ever heard it! I love it!

I've always dreamed of a super huge bathroom. Should we put in a jacuzzi tub? Snap my fingers, wow, jacuzzi tub, that was easy. How about different perfumes, soaps, bubbles (for HC) anything we want, the sky's the limit. Ahhh, only in my dreams, but that keeps me going.

FYI, I'm a bit tipsy, everything I say here on out should be taken with a grain of salt and a shot of bourbon. Just warning all of you. :)

Oh just little... we knocked out a wall! LOL!

Wondergirl, there is no mens room, the get to do their stuff outside. Kidding, the mens room is just as lush as ours, just follow the next pool guy in, you'll get an eyeful.

Naughty Alty.

I love to clean things. Maybe I could do the bathrooms once a week?

I joined you Alty, so Wondergirl?. you might have to keep us in line a bit! Shall I go get Kevin to come over to work security?

We could get a little crazy, but Kevin could give us rides! :D

You don't have to ask me twice, you are so hired Wondergirl. Hey, if you love cleaning come on over, my house is a pig sty right now, I can't get caught up, could use some help. I pay in cookies and beer.

Starby, I don't think that Kevin would mix well with pool boys, glasses, food, drinks, the bathroom etc. etc. You know I adore Kevin, but he should stay at the doggy daycare, he does good work there. :)

Can you stop here too... it's on the way! I'll serve up a good dinner and by the time you make it to Alty's you'll be ready for dessert! ;)

Tell me more about Kevin. Is he as cute as Sneeze?

Hee, hee, Kevins a kangaroo, Friend4U sent him from Australia to protect Starby.

Yeah, Kevin is a little clutsy isn't he? I think M needs to come have a talk with him!

As Kanga's go he's great! You are right though, a bit clutsy, but such a lovey. :)

He said he's going to Fed Ex a Wallaby over too!. hehe! I can't remember his name... I think it was skippy! lol

Skippy and Kevin, hmm, cartoon time!

That's 2 cartoons we've got in the works now then. Starty and Starby... I think we're action hero's, lol Now Skippy and Kevin.. hmmm! :D

Wondergirl, want to be in a cartoon with me. Wondergirl and Alty, I'm even giving you top billing. How about it?

You could be crime fighters that go around kicking loopy people off websites! :D

I know karate. I can also stop people's library cards so they can't check out books.

Yup, I can do that, can I do that? I don't have the power to do that. I can tell on them though, I can be the tattle tale crime fighter, I don't fight I just tell someone else. Somehow that isn't to exciting. :(

Thumper bunny is stinky today, a bit of a poo problem. TMI?

Karate, wondergirl, wow, I'm afraid of you now. FYI guys, don't tick off Wondergirl! ;)

I can sew, I'll make our costumes, what's your favorite color? Should we have capes, masks, spandex? Decisions, decisions.

Well that's just plain mean! I suppose you'll steal their lunch money too, and make them do your homework without any books. You big bully's you!

Thumper must be eating the same stuff my Thomas Jefferson is. Whew!!

Could I be a librarian crimefighter like a library policewoman in your strip?

Librarian crimefighter works for me, after all I'm a mom crimefighter, or a bunny rescuer, dog loving, bird and fish loving crimefighter. How about pink costumes, I like pink.

Stop it!. the pool boys stopped doing their jobs now! They got distracted by the whole librarian/police woman thing!

/waves seductively

Hi boys, how you doing?

Okay, enough naughtiness.

Girls, I've got to go, it's 12:30am, way past my bed time. The kids get up at the butt crack of dawn and I at least have to look alive.

I'll talk to you all tomorrow. Take care of the pub, and give Sneezy a big smooch for me if he shows up later. Hopefully he's sleeping.

Good night.

Alty out.

Hmmmmm, let's promise them a show tomorrow night as long as they stay on the job when they're scheduled.

How could we ramp this up? Do we want our characters to have pets? I want a horse to ride. I will need a computer too.

Nitey Night Alty! Give your peepers a good rest :)

Well, guess I had better wash dishes and get out of here until tomorrow. Bye!

You could bring the horsey's to the daycare during the day when you're at the library fighting crime!

G'nite Wondergirl! My pup is wanting to play some ball too... been ignoring her... have a good wkd, :)

Oh MY you ladies have been busy while I was gone.

430am...

Around 10pm, I was watching a movie with my brother when I was "politely" reminded that an acquaintance was having a birthday. I say "politely" because as soon as I picked up the phone, I got an earful of "Where the ^$#@ are you, you son of a %@&%!??! Get your *$# down here you %@#^@#!!!"

... this, of course, was my friend... who was "slightly" drunk.

Oh, and I say "acquaintance" because... I don't even know the girl, but apparently, my friends have talked to her about me and in her drunken stupor, she kept saying, "I want sneezy to come here! Bring him here! I want to talk to him!"

... so I went. We went to a bar/lounge... the acquaintance and I talked a little bit... but most of the time, she was so inebriated that she couldn't put a full sentence together. The most I got from her was, "Muerrr my friends..hur jje...awwess...they looveeeeee you....annnddd, they think I loveeeee YOUUUU"

... Great. Thanks.

... so I just got back. My brother's snoring away in my bed again... time to hit the couch.

Starby: I'm SO glad you're sleeping.

Alty: I'm so relieved to hear that your vision's getting better. Hope that surgery doesn't happen.

Wondery: kevin's a LITTLE bit cuter than I am ;) but not as wonderful as you are. OH! Can you come help me clean my apartment?

Urmm... gnite all?

Hehe... funny Sneeze! Yes we had fun tonight, and I mirt ba tlakin lik yer gril that you wrer with. LOL No, I wasn't sleeping... but definitely on my way... G'nite Sneeze! Sweet dreams!

Greetings and welcome to Alty's Pub, your after hours spot to unwind and have a pint.:)

So pull up a stool, relax and order a drink. The sky's the limit and anything goes (with the drinks that is).:p

Would you like a Beer, in a glass or in the bottle? How about a fancy drink with a little umbrella? How about a weird concoction or something with a sexy name?

Your wish is my command. Pull up to the mahogany bar, grab a hand full of beer nuts and tell me all about your day. After all, that's what bartenders are for.

The lights are dim, the music playing softly in the background and the drinks are FREE!

Come on down!:D


Nice place... kinda dim in here isn't it?
Stringer

Welcome Stringer. Let me turn on the lights for you. We like it dim, that way you can't see all the mess on the floors.

Can I get you a drink? Some beer nuts? Lobster, steak? Your wish is my command.

Thank you, still in the mood for some more white wine... do you have to tip here too? Don't mind if I should...

Nope, everything is free, it's a dream pub. White wine coming right up, no food?

How are you Stringer, I'm glad you stopped by.

Steak Salad and Baked potato please. You got some Bailey's and Coffee? I'll need something to keep me awake through the night to study.

Do you have anything that has the side effect of a photographic memory? I sure need something.

Hi J, welcome to the pub. Well, since this is a dream pub and everything is available at the snap of my fingers, I'm sure I can find something for you.

How would you like your steak done, potato fully loaded? Here's your bailey's and coffee, more bailey's than coffee.;)

Photographic memory, hmmm, not sure, I'll have to check.

Morning boys and girls ;) Is everyone drinking already? LOL Did Chicky give you her recipe for a Starby Special to you Alty? I'll have one if you've got one please!

How's everyone?

Starby special coming right up.

I'm still drinking coffee, with sugar and milk, might have a beer tonight though, not sure yet.

I'm okay, my eye's still bugging me, but what else is new? How are you sweetie?

Fine fine... got some sleep for once! Must have been the beer from lastnite, lol Well if you read my message to Sneezy you probably saw that I carried on without you! haha.

Just had an argument with my stubborn ole Dad who is insisting on towing an 18 foot boat and another vehicle when they come back from Florida in a few weeks. Crazy man. He's getting too old for that stuff! My mom is worried about it.

I've got a strange craving for a pop-tart! Do you have any? :D

Hi J,

Don't know of any of that, but let me tell you the Chantix will give you vivid and strange dreams.

Stringer

/snaps fingers

Your wish is my command. A pop-tart for Starby.

An 18 foot boat, wow, do the like going boating? I'd rather have a trailer than a boat, but that's just me. Hmmmm, are they living on the boat? ;)

Chantix, eh? What's that?

Hi J,

don't know of any of that, but let me tell you the Chantix will give you vivid and strange dreams.

Stringer

Yeah, I've been on the Chantix for 3 months now. Failed miserably, guess it's cause of the stress of this semester. Once I sit for my boards and get my license, I'll try again.

But the dreams are very strange and very vivid (colorful). I haven't had any bad dreams though, just strange.

Chantix, eh? What's that?

A pill to help you quit smoking... I am down from 40 to 50 cigarettes a day to 10 to 15 and getting much better...

My side effects; nausea ( not so bad now), very vivid dreams, some head aches, and gas... but so far very good I think?

Stringer

They bring "toys" back with them every yr! They brought home a schooner last yr, and the yr before a humungous motor home (which they hardly use) that I usually stay in when I go to visit them. They have a huge waterfront home, both here and in Fla. So, hence the boats, but at their age they don't need to be towing home toys anymore all the time.

This boat is suppose to be for my bro. I'm calling him in a bit to give him a little piece of my mind. My parents have to detour from their normal route and go through Atlanta. I've driven through there and it wasn't much fun for me. I can only imagine towing a bunch of stuff behind you. Geez!

J_9, you can channel my near-photographic memory when you take your exam.

It's cold and rainy here in Chicago. I need something warm and comforting for lunch. Any ideas?

Stringer

I might have to check that out! I've heard about it.

I am down from 2 packs a day to less than one pack. I have had no other side effects other than the dreams. I actually enjoy going to sleep now cause it's like going to a different movie every night, and much cheaper. LOL

A dream example; (Apparently saw some of a ghost story before I fell asleep.) I don't remember the whole dream now, it was a few days ago;

My wife is away seeing her family so I am in bed by myself. I felt the presence of a person on "her" pillow. In my dream I opened my eyes and saw this decaying face about 4 " away from mine with big veined eyeballs with no eye lids staring at me, no lips and only patches of skin and hair. It looked like it was smiling at me with a sinister smile. I tried to tell myself in my dream that "this is a dream." But to no avail, it moved slowly closer and closer to my face and I couldn't move away.

I am telling you that this is one of the most frightening dreams I have ever had, it was sooo real.

They aren't as bad lately and I am happy that the Chantix is working for me, I really want to quit now.

Stringer

Oh man J, I can't imagine what would happen to me then if I took them. I have vivid dreams normally! A different movie every night. Pretty strange ones sometimes.

Stringer

I think I'll smoke... LOL That's scary!

Wondergirl... did anyone get you something to eat yet?

Hmm, sounds interesting. I'd love to quit smoking, I can only seem to do it when I'm pregnant. I quit for both pregnancies, actually quit for 4 years with my son, but then my parents died and I started again. Quit again with my daughter and then started again. Nope, I don't want to have another one just so I can quit smoking. ;)

J, when's your next exam, how many left, are you almost done?

I want dreams like J is having!

J_9, you can channel my near-photographic memory when you take your exam.

It's cold and rainy here in Chicago. I need something warm and comforting for lunch. Any ideas?

Hey Wonder! How are you? Isn't this wonderful weather we are having here in Chicago? I am sick of it...

Stringer

Synn, I don't know, I think I'll stay with my dreams, not scary, kind of pleasant at times.:)

I need more coffee, I'm falling asleep!

I am down from 2 packs a day to less than one pack. I have had no other side effects other than the dreams. I actually enjoy going to sleep now cause it's like going to a different movie every night, and much cheaper. LOL

That's actually quite good J... that's 20 some less a day.

And everyone is correct, you will do fine on this test... and then over the top!

Stringer

J, when's your next exam, how many left, are you almost done?

I have one this Monday on here is the breakdown of content on exam 5 : Burns= 15, Neuro 1=15, Shock =16, Dosage calculation =3 EKG Rhythm interpretation =1

Then I have one next Monday and then the comprehensive final on the 30th.

My dreams are actually VERY pleasant, bordering on FANTASTIC!! I'm not looking forward to no more Chantix :(

It was 84 here yesterday, stormy in the morning, but sunny in the afternoon and 52 and cloudy today.

Wow, you're almost done, that has to feel great! Congrats J, you are almost at the end of your goal. Stringer's right, you will do GREAT!

Maybe I should try Chantix, I don't know if it's available in Canada, I've never even heard of it. I'm on other meds though so I'd have to check with my Doc, see if it's even okay for me. Worth a try, I so want to quit smoking, doing it on my own isn't working so well.

It's around 10 degrees celsius today, I don't know how to convert that, sorry. It's a beautiful day, the birds are chirping, the bunnies are hopping, the dogs are, hey, enough poo, I've got tons to pick up as it is. YIKES!

Hey Wonder! How are you? Isn't this wonderful weather we are having here in Chicago? I am sick of it........

Friday morning was warm and sunny, but the 30-degree change in the early afternoon was scary. The grass is getting green and I saw a faint green blush on some Oak Brook trees yesterday.

The coming week should be nicer, according to Tom Skilling.

Oh no, I just looked outside, in my front yard. I think the little pine tree I planted last year is dead, or dying. Sigh, that's my daughters tree, she even named it, I hope it survived.

Yeah, strange weather, I don't know about you but I need 75 to 80 degrees and bright sunshine for a while... I feel like I am paying for a debt that I don't remember incurring.

Oh no, I just looked outside, in my front yard. I think the little pine tree I planted last year is dead, or dying. Sigh, that's my daughters tree, she even named it, I hope it survived.

K... here's the plan, ready?

If it is dead, go get another just like it, plant it and she will never know... got it? Ssshhh.

10 C is about 50 F, Alty. It's 15 here! :p hehe! A degree warmer for every hr it would take you to get here!

Starby, not nice. You better clean up I'm coming over. Get out the lawn chairs and the margaritas you're about to get company. 5 degrees warmer, not fair.

Stinger, I think I might have to replace the tree, I just hope that I can get it done while she's at school. She's only 5 but she's got a memory like an elephant, she remembers things that happened when she was 1. She's the kind of kid you don't make promises to unless you intend to keep them, because she will remember every word you said. She's also got a photographic memory. I don't know were she got this from, it's not inherited, maybe it skips a generation. Hmmmm.

Have you ever bought a dog treat called Rollover Alty?. or anyone?. I think it's only available in Canada though.

Nope, my dogs get milk bones and occasionally beef jerky for dogs. I haven't heard of rollover, what is it?

Starby, not nice. You better clean up I'm coming over. Get out the lawn chairs and the margaritas you're about to get company. 5 degrees warmer, not fair.

Stinger, I think I might have to replace the tree, I just hope that I can get it done while she's at school. She's only 5 but she's got a memory like an elephant, she remembers things that happened when she was 1. She's the kind of kid you don't make promises to unless you intend to keep them, because she will remember every word you said. She's also got a photographic memory. I don't know were she got this from, it's not inherited, maybe it skips a generation. Hmmmm.

I'll get the margarita mix out, and dust off the chairs. I'll get the umbrella out of storage and we'll get ready for the party! :D

I'll bring the beer, and the chocolate swirl cheesecake I made yesterday (what's left of it).

Funny...

Well... put it this way... It's DOGGIE CRACK! It is made in High River I think, and dogs go insane for it. It comes in big 5lb chubs. Beef, chicken, seafood, lamb/rice are the different kinds. I bought Nik a marrow bone and started stuffing it with that stuff. Now that's all she wants! She mopes around and gives me dirty looks if I don't give it to her! Packs on the lbs though, and I don't know how to break her of it.

Oh no, Niki needs rehab. That's sad. ;)

Oh no, Niki needs rehab. That's sad. ;)

LMAO! Poor Nik. She seriously gets right pissed off if she doesn't get any!

Momma bad!

No, momma not bad, dog treat manufacturers bad. Poor Nik, rehab time! ;)

My dogs love eggs, but the gasses that accompany eggs are just not good. I'm talking, wallpaper peeling of the walls. Ew!

Oh I know! Niki loves loves loves cheese too! But that does the same thing to her. Phewww!

In fact she'll eat just about anything! She loves Cheerio's!

Got to love doggie babies and their stinky butts. Hee, hee. :)

Got to run now, play with the kids, pick up the poo, oh joy, please can I?

I'll talk to you all later. Take care, be good, drink coffee, or beer. I'll be back.

Alty out. For now.

Have fun with the kiddies. I better stick to coffee, and lay off the beer till the party starts, lol. Catch you later on! Have fun with that poop eh? :D

I shouldn't make fun... I should be out doing the same!

Good reason not to have one of those lovable things...

Not really, wife is allergic...

Betcha can't do it Alty......you will check to see and respond.......Cans we all say we are addicted? Can we be honest with ourselves...................? haha

Addicted?. to what? No... Not me! I promise I have never eaten Niki's treats... really, no really! Ok, well maybe a few... LOL! And those cigarettes are just a... hobby... yeah, a hobby! ;)

Addicted??...to what? No... Not me! I promise I have never eaten Niki's treats...really, no really! Ok, well maybe a few...LOL!! And those cigarettes are just a...hobby...yeah, a hobby! ;)

Hahahaha... "Me thinks thou protest too much....."

I'm so glad right now that I have cats, and not dogs, and that they turn their noses up at people food.

Yeah, my dog is starting to look like she ATE a cat, lol I don't normally feed her too much people food, but she sure loves those treats!

hahahaha...."Me thinks thou protest too much....."

Protest you say? I'm da queen of da nile! ;)

Well folks... I'm off to buy party supplies, haha. Have a good wkd you! :D

Protest you say?! I'm da queen of da nile! ;)

Well folks...I'm off to buy party supplies, haha. Have a good wkd ya'll!! :D

Aaaaaaaaaah... K... gotcha...

Weekend... Oh yeah, too cold and rainy to do much else than read, watch TV, read, and OH YEAH... wife is finally back...

Stringer

Ah, Stinger, you're wife is back, good for you. What did she buy, did you get anything?

Yup, I'm addicted to this site, I really can't believe how addicted I am. I've met so many wonderful people, present company included, and I never thought that would happen on an internet site. Nope, I was really suspicious at first, you hear so many bad things about meeting people on the internet. But I know that you are all genuine caring people, I've seen it time and time again, I'm glad to be a part of this little family. Aw, that was a bit sappy wasn't it. Alty bad.

I'm back for a few minutes, anyone here, or am I all alone? :(

Hellooooooo everyone!

Ah, what horrible atl weather awaits me... so glummy. Nevertheless, mmm... anyone have anything interesting happen to them today?

I'm heading out to the gym and then out to a poker game with a few of my buddies... which always ends up with us just getting pretty hammered... so I'm assuming that I'll be losing my pants there in more ways than one. God I hope there're women there.

I've had my arse sitting here in my chair since 10:30 this morning studying for my next exam.

Dam burns, why do people have to get burned anyway? Ugggghhhhhh

Can you tell I'm frustrated?

Have fun at your poker game Sneeze. Keep your pants on, or I'll tell HC on you! LOL! ;)

Drop in at the "Dancing with my dog" party when you get home! I'll try and follow Alty's instructions to see if I can put the thread on here. Or maybe Alty could?. maybe if I talk real nice? ;)

Don't get frustrated 'J-9'... take a break for awhile! We need all of your good advice here! 20 days and counting right?! :)

Hey all, taking a break for a few.

Starby, time to clear you mail box, I couldn't reply because your mail box is full. Get on it girl. ;)

J- take a break sweetie, otherwise you'll stress yourself out and won't be fit to take the exam. Can I get you anything, a cooler, a beer, your wish is my command dear.

Sneezy - Keep your pants on buddy, just don't loose and you'll be fine. Learn to bluff. ;)

I just cleaned out my mailbox... oops! I didn't realise there were so many messages in there. Holy cow man, lol.

Yup, I clean mine out weekly, I must be popular, gosh. /blushes.

How are you Starby, did you get the supplies for the party?

Sneezy's playing pool, I guess he isn't coming tonight.

J-9 is studying, so I guess she isn't coming.

HC- doesn't have internet access at home, count her out.

Synn - Are you coming, please save Starby and me, please.

Stringer's wife is home, he has better things to do.

I don't know about the rest, they haven't checked in. Looks like it's me and Starby, Clough and Jrebel. Should be fun, I'll be there. I'm bringing beer!

Got to go again. Time to make supper. Back later all, take care.

Bars stocked... foods ready... got my records ;) I think we're good to go!

I'm going to take a nap first... the allniters can be tough, LOL!

I don't know about the rest, they haven't checked in. Looks like it's me and Starby, Clough and Jrebel. Should be fun, I'll be there. I'm bringing beer!

Wondergirl? What about Wondergirl? I clean your bathrooms and you forget about me?? I could clean someone else's bathrooms, you know. I just don't get no respect around here.

Where's the Lysol? I need to keep busy so my emotions don't overwhelm me.

Am I coming where?

I so can't keep up with you! They make me WORK!

To my "dancing with our pets" Party! It started as a joke really... but it took off I guess, lol. I'll try not to be computer illiterate and try and put the thread up on here. :)

Um... My pets are cats.

They don't do the dancing thing.

Well if I can wrap my little blonde head around this, and figure out how to put the thread on here to show you ;)... there were cats dancing there lastnite, and I didn't even know it, LOL

Alty's bringing her bunnies and there is going to be a bunny hop I hear. The dance floor has a catwalk. We could also play some songs from "CATS". We could play... "What's up Pusscat"?.

Your kitty's will have a blast!

Um... my kitties kind of hate people.

Really.

Can't I come and leave them home? And maybe just bring my friend Nos? People call him an animal all the time!

HAHA! All animals welcome! We don't discriminate here, lol. I still can't figure out how to post the thread. Duh! Alty will help me :) I know it's not hard to do. I can still chew gum and walk at the same time though... does that get me off the hook?. haha ;)

I really need to nap before the party though. If I'm late... the door is open! You start without me. Pull up a chair and help yourselves to drinks and munchies k?

Wondergirl?? What about Wondergirl? I clean your bathrooms and you forget about me??? I could clean someone else's bathrooms, you know. I just don't get no respect around here.

Of course you're invited, goes without saying. Do you have any pets, if not you can dance with one of my bunnies.

Okay, Starby, here's the link;

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/mental-emotional-health/dancing-dog-199850.html

Remember, right click on the title of the thread and left click on "copy shortcut" then go to were you want to post, right click and "paste" then you've added the link. You can do it, I have faith.

Check out Svetlana's comment on this thread, very telling I think.

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/members/trumpet%2Bguy93.html

Not at all surprising.

I'm confused, Alty

I'm confuzzled too. That's not a thread but a profile instead.

Oops, sorry, my bad, hit the wrong shortcut. It's not important. Maybe I shouldn't be the one to teach Starby how to post a shortcut to a thread, obviously I'm not that good at it either. ;)

How are you two? Good I hope. J- still studying? Synn- how are you?

I've got to go, the kids are outside playing and I'm going to go join them. They are going to be exhausted tonight, they've been outside all day, only food breaks and bathroom breaks, their cheeks are rosy and they're filthy dirty. Ah, to be a kid again.

Talk to you all later.

I don't know about the rest, they haven't checked in. Looks like it's me and Starby, Clough and Jrebel. Should be fun, I'll be there. I'm bringing beer!

If these guys will be there, SO WILL I! :D

Yup, they will be, at least that's the plan. Are you going to bring your bunny too? We'll do the bunny hop and have some fun. Now we just have to wake up Starby, it's her party after all.

Starby, you up? Time to party!

Hello ladies!

I just got back from a lovely dinner.. decided to skip the poker game with the guys. How's the pub doing?

Sneezy, how did you make it through burns and shock? I'm scared of the exam on Monday.

Other than that 3 beers down and studying done for the night.

Cheers J9, I'm also having a beer.

Hey Sneezy, no poker? Good, now you can keep your pants. ;)

I didn't. Luckily, I don't have to take the boards yet ;) I still have... PLENTY of time...

Best of luck J_9... you'll do fine! DO expect a call from me in about 3 years screaming for help in me passing the USMLE.

Nope, alty. No poker. Decided to ditch the guys for a friend of mine... she and her boyfriend just broke up, so I took her out to an oyster bar. I love oysters :)

Oysters huh? You know what they say about oysters right? If you don't I'm not going to tell you, you'll have to do some research.

How's the little bro doing? Passed out yet?

I wish you the best of luck J!
Sneezy, you are going to SKIP poker??
Alty I will bring a microphone and a video camera! That should be fun!

Haha, I think I read it a medical journal somewhere...

The little bro is actually home (parents') now... I go home and have lunch with my parents every Saturday so I dropped him off today. He has school on Monday.

DO expect a call from me in about 3 years screaming for help in me passing the USMLE.

I'll be here!! But you'll know more than me at that point, but remember, nurses are there to catch the doctor's mistakes. LOL

I truly don't believe that...

Don't tell anyone this... but to be honest, the nurses do more than the doctors do... and often times, know more about the patient than the doctors do. Without the charts, doctors are clueless.

... don't EVER quote me on that.

Wouldn't it be neat if you two worked together some day. Now that would be cool. Of course you'd never know it, Sneezy and J9, I'm sure they're not your real names, amend, I hope they aren't your real names. :p ;)

Hey, I just let Choux provoke me again, this time it's on her own thread, and the thread is all about getting out our feeling about her, so I did. Not fond of that lady, not one little bit, she sure does know how to aggravate people. Maybe she'll grow on me, I doubt it though.

Another beer for Alty, I'm catching up J9. :)

Yeah, I read that... a little caustic, but I like it

Sneezy and J9 as a team... Sounds like my plastic surgeon... he had a nurse who he trusted almost everything with.

Would you trust me Sneezy?

I was caustic or she was? I wasn't trying to be caustic, just calling her on what she said about me. I know I shouldn't have let her get me mad, I've learned my lesson and from now on I'll RIP, but she asked for it on her thread, I wasn't going to let her say it was my fault, she started it.

Sorry, another vent, jeez, I've had allot of those lately.

Okay, happy Alty. Anyone want anything? Beer, Nachos, Steak, Lobster, nuts, pool guys, oops, did I say that? Hee, hee. /blushes

I know Choux in real life. She was one of my (good) library volunteers until about 7 years ago. Interesting how sitting behind a computer can change a person's personality...

I am going for a cup of coffee and whatever else comes my way!
(I think personal problems with each other should be kept in PM's or on the thread she started to get it all out) Only my opinion, but, well, I just hate to see it go everywhere anyway... sorry if I offend anyone for saying so, I truly am:)

Sorry... "pool guys'... nope... wrong flavor...

Is she nice in real life Wondergirl? I've only had a few run in's with her, and so far none of them have been good. Should I sluff it off to bad timing and bad Karma, or are those encounters as good as it's going to get? I don't want to judge her, but she's made it rather hard not to. Arghh, it's frustrating.

Wondergirl, are you coming to the dog dancing party? I posted the thread and invited you, bring your fur babies, or come solo, there are extra fur babies around if you need one.

J_9, after reading your replies, I'd trust you with my own body on the table.

Alty, it's fine. Really. Happy alty.

Wondergirl, really?! Small world...

No pool guys for Stringer, how about a bar wench? Wait a minute, your wife's home, you don't need a bar wench! :)

Starty, I get it, and I won't talk about it anymore on this thread, sorry. As for offending me, never. Once you are a friend of mine there is nothing that you can do to change that, and I always value your opinion, always. Sweet Starty, you're such a dear.

I have four cats, Alty. Could I bring Thomas Jefferson? He and I play "Titanic": -- I'm the ship sailing on the high seas (down on all fours) and he is the iceberg bashing against my head and trying to "sink" me. We provide sound effects and lots of exciting action. "Will the iceberg sink the ship?"

Choux is the same on other Q&A web sites as she is here.

The weather's a bit weird here in the atl... as always. Extremely pleasant during the day, and cold in the evening (to the Canadians... "cold" means 60 degrees... )

J_9, after reading your replies, I'd trust you with my own body on the table.

Alty, it's fine. really. happy alty.

wondergirl, really?!? small world...


If I decided to have another baby (not going to happen folks, unless there's an oops) I'd want J9 to deliver it. Of course I'm in Canada, she isn't, it would be a long way to go just to get the person I want to deliver my child. No worries, I'm done anyway. Two is enough, I love them to bits, but at least with two you still have one parent for each child, three is not good, they could outnumber you and take over. YIKES. :p :) ;) :D

That mental image in my head... classic.

Bring all the kitties, you can put on a play, I love Titanic.

Hey Sneezy, Lily can be one of the crew. Hee, hee.

Awwww, Alty thanks for saying that. :) True, I also value your opinion as well.
Noooo pool guys for Stringer... :) :) :) hehehehe

Sneezy, I bet you thought old people just sit by the window and peek out between the lace curtains. Actually, we're a pretty lively bunch! All I have to do is say "Titanic" and Thomas begins to wind himself around my feet meowing madly.

No way, the "old" folks at the hospital are QUITE the lively bunch... it'll be 8pm and while the other patients are watching TV... dozing off, the older bunch are getting together to play board games and talk about politics!

I did offer Stringer a bar wench, but Marta's home now right, he should be fine.

Stringer, did you leave without saying goodbye, were are you?

As for the other, you know it girl, I've considered you a friend for a long time now, nothing will ever change that. I admire honesty, even if it means telling me I'm full of it, really.

Okay, as the proprietor of this establishment it is up to me to make sure that everyone is happy. Are you all happy? If not, lie, please.:)

Can I get anyone anything? How about a game of pool, or monopoly, who brought the monopoly? Snack, drink, dip in the jacuzzi, what's your pleasure, I'll try to make it happen, I have magic snappy fingers, watch.

/snap (dang, were did my hubby go, oops):eek: :o

You are full of wonderful energy true and sweet. K, I wish I had a good dance partner besides my dog. I have never danced formally before! I normall just belt out some busta moves when I am walking around the house and a good song comes out, sometimes I get stares or glares, but who cares right? I love dancing around, feels good to the bottom of my soul!

Nope, just catching up... but I am leaving now, see you tomorrow...

I appreciate the jester Alty, but... I have never cheated and I am too old now... so...

You guys have fun and when you finally hit the sack, sleep tight.

Stringer

Just go to the Doggy dance, bring your bunny, mine are there. I left my dog Indy at home, he's old and creaky, Jasper is just too full of mischief, the bird, not a good idea with cats coming, ditto for the fish. So it's me and three bunnies, bring your bunny, mine are fixed. :)

Nighty night Stringer, sleep tight. Remember, you're only as old as you feel, that means I have one foot in the grave, geesh. Talk to you tomorrow dear.

Anybody here? I'll turn on the lights.

M, are you in the corner, or did you go home?

Hey all, come say hello!

Anybody here? I'll turn on the lights.

M, are you in the corner, or did you go home?

Hey all, come say hello!


Wait Alty, shine that light over there in the corner... yep, looks like some had way too much fun last night.

Stringer

Ew, you're right Stringer. I'll go get the mop and clean up. A pub owner's job is never done. SIGH.

I'm here... sitting in the library cranking out my paper... but not really cranking, more like... false starting... darn writer's block. This is why I'm not a writer... how does HC do it everyday?! I'd MUCH rather cut into someone than sit and write a paper.

Ha, ha, Sneezy, cut in to someone, funny, or scary, not sure which. ;)

How are you buddy?

Still breathing. How're you enjoying your Sunday afternoon?

It's a B-E-A-utiful day here today... upper 60s... sun is shining... GREAT day for a picnic. I may possibly ditch my paper and go for a walk in the park with my dog.

We're planning to take the kids to the park today. The weather is gorgeous and the backyard is 1/3 clean of poo, they will add more today though, they are both full of it. ;)

Next week I am building a bigger better bunny run, indoor/outdoor, collapsible bunny run. I'm also starting to build my tables again, now I can wear my safety goggles without having to put them over my glasses, YES!

SWEET! (that your eyes are getting better)

Today is definitely NOT the day to sit inside a library and write a paper. Darn you syphilis.

Syphilis, naughty syphilis, yup I'd rather be outside too. ;)

Sneezy, saw your post about the nose ring infection, great work. :)

Thank you, thank you ::takes a bow::

/claps loudly. Encore.

Yup, I am impressed, you are a doctor in the making, can't wait to see the finished product. :) ;)

I'm not an expert at anything, sigh, except for running my mouth off, apparently. :)

No need to be an expert @ anything to be wonderful.

Aw, you are such a sweetie, if I wasn't married. ;)

I KNOW! And if HC wasn't here... NOT that I'm complaining. I'm QUITE happy with HC. She is a WONDERFUL cook ;)

I think I'm going to rebel... I'm going to leave the paper-writing for later tonight. I refuse to let my youth waste away here in this dark library while listening to the two people next to me discuss how their weekend was "slamming"... people, this is a library...

You go and breath in some fresh air, take Lily with you, and a ball. Enjoy the spring, it's a beautiful season. Sometimes you need to give the brain a rest and just do something that requires no thought.

I've got to run too, going to clean the kitchen and go outside with the kids.

Talk to you later Sneezy sweetie, take care and have fun, you're only young once. Darn, did I miss it? ;)

Anybody here? I'll turn on the lights.

M, are you in the corner, or did you go home?



Hey Alty
I'm always over here in the corner , I just observe sometimes , its fun :-)

Nice to see you all taking Kevin dancing.

Hey there Friend! You missed the big doggie dancing party lastnite. Kevin got a little unruly at times, but he was a good bouncer! ;)

HA ha , I did see that. But I popped in when the party was all over. Damn timezones.

No kidding! What time/day is it there now?

It's 10.30am Monday morning. I've been at work now for 2 hours and still going through all my AMHD emails. LOL naughty friend , get back to work :-)

LOL... It would probably take you most of your day to catch up with shenanigans that went on here on the wkd ;)

I know , I've just finished everything in Alty's Pub , earlier The dancing dog thread ( I see you had Kevin over there as well) and now I'm off to see how chicky's café ended up.

Yeah, sad to see it go, LOL We had a toast, and played the café theme song, and then strolled down the block to the pub for a cold one! :D

We needed Kevin at the dance party to keep it under control and provide the bunnies with rides and entertainment!

So did you work out how to paste a thread into your posts yet starby?

HELLOOOOO ALL!

... senioritis is hitting me purty hard. I've been in this darn library for the past 6 - 7 hours now, with a small break in between... and I've gotten 2 pages written today.. . I have no motivation to do anything. ANYTHING!!

The plus side is, this one barista at sbucks have been giving me free coffee/triple shot venti white chocolate mocha for the past 2 weeks.. . I think I'm going to get her something nice.

So did you work out how to paste a thread into your posts yet starby??

No, haha! I've been being lazy. I did try it once, but I must have been doing something wrong, so I gave up. I'm such a quitter, LOL
