OK, since I luv my babble friends I will tell a story. I was raised Catholic my early years. As we were prepared for our first confession, the sisters and the priests kept warning us about "those" thoughts - as in IM6. Fine, so I go to confession, start with the usual I stole a cookie, and then, for whatever reason told the man behind the screen that i had had ______ thoughts. Got assigned a few Hail Marys & Our Fathers. Later I went home all nervous. "Mom, I lied in confession! I said I had an ______ thought and I don't even know what that is!" I don't remember what my mom said, she probably gave me a cookie, but the story was very durable at familty gatherings.

well there you are. On your day off, you are supposed to relax. Working on days off is a sure way to burnout. It is your selfpreserving talent that keeps you babbling. Good for you.

6:32 am
Katydid0615

daughter used to have a bichon. it was a very high strung dog.
6:32 am
Trifioso

i think it is the lack of an "s" that makes it so - no plurals means more unique words to find
6:33 am
bichon

Katy, that's strange, cause Bichons are the opposite of high-strung. Ours have been very mellow
6:33 am
Katydid0615

could be because she had 4 kids running around and the dog was probably scared witless.
6:34 am
Katydid0615

they ended up giving her to an elderly lady who did very well with her.
6:34 am
bichon

That would do it Katy. Bichons can't be mistreated. They need to be adored

something funny here, mg, is that when reruns of ER (my personal fave) is on, they don't have subtitles for the dialogue that isn't in english. makes for a loooong episode, sometimes!
10:23 am
MonkeyGames

I pointed out that we will not watch their channel again-- which will not be hard as House is the only redeeming thing they have ever shown,but I saw fit not to mention that detail.
10:23 am
MonkeyGames

They did that here with something or other the other day, Trif, with lots of Thai in it...
10:23 am

Can you watch it online, Monkey? Doubt it's censored there.

Now Gordon Ramsey is someone who gets censored a great deal. Talk about potty mouth!
10:25 am
Trifioso

:)
10:25 am
MonkeyGames

Oh, and here they also tend to put subtitles in the same place on the screen... so if someone is speaking Japanese or Spanish or something, and it was originally broadcast somewhere English-speaking, they put the Dutch right over the English so nobody can read any of it!
10:25 am

oh, he is just the WORST. why give such a person a platform?

11:19 pm
Jellen

Barely missed meeting ruru...he was on the grounds of the resort where I was staying, but I wasn't there at the time...
11:19 pm
