Let me put it this way, Jilli: Romney made a powerful case for an experienced commander-in-chief, and that's who i voted for!

Did anybody notice that Romney said our Air Force was founded in 1947? Hello? Then who in hell was bombing Berlin in 1943,1944 and 1945? And a few other places....

I think in the early 40s, it was called the ArmyAir Corps? (remember that song)> Did he mean the name changed in 1947?
12:29 am

According to wikipedia, it was officially founded in Sept 1947.

which actually is agood iidea to do here to, ill make some tea:)

sounds like a plan. However, that involves me going down the stairs and back up... which I will postpone until after the grid so I won't have to go twice :)

is that typical in holland? steep stairs?

pretty much so, flosey

conserving space?

10:26 am
crosshair

i was in construction/reno for 10 years and the rule of thumb that seems to work the best is take the estimated cost of the project,remove 10% for deals,coupons etc than take the new total and double it.same for finish times,take est time to finish,remove 5 days for good days,then double the remaining total
10:27 am

Hi Peri. I love Amazon. I always get my items very quickly.
12:29 pm
periwinkle

the original message I got from them said 7 days. I called them and said I thought it was 2 day delivery with amazon prime. she said on most items. then later in the day I got an e-mail saying the item was shipped and to expect it today!
12:29 pm
Altagolfnut5

my biggest beef with them is because they are so quick, and I forget that part, I order xmas gifts early, and theres only a 30 day return policy. so have to be careful
12:29 pm

I am in the process of setting it up. so far so good.

2:48 pm
crosshair

"One day many years ago a man walked along and stood in the sound of the ocean on a cold sunless shore and said "We need a voice to call across the water, to warn ships; I'll make one. I'll make a voice that is like an empty bed beside you all night long, and like an empty house when you open the door, and like the trees in autumn with no leaves. A sound like the birds flying south, crying, and a sound like November wind and the sea on the hard, cold shore. I'll make a sound that's so alone that no one can miss it, that whoever hears it will weep in their souls, and to all who hear it in the distant towns. I'll make me a sound and an apparatus and they'll call it a Fog Horn and whoever hears it will know the sadness of eternity and the briefness of life."

8:40 pm
Jacula

Jilly - Hi! The story this evening was one about walking the dog - who you meet, what you find etc.

Nice...I really miss having a dog to walk. She was so friendly to all, except for those she sensed something in...then she was all guard dog!
8:41 pm
Jacula

TO - Pet Sematary gave me nightmares! LOL. I do like Stephen King's books, but not that one. James Herbert's 'The Cottage' - read that. It's a great horror story.
8:41 pm

dogs are a good way to meet potential partners
8:46 pm
Jillyjill

Jacula...your Pet Semetary fear reminds me of a real situation. My friend had a kitty that her husband accidently ran over (her head). Kitty survived, but she always had an ee5/10 look about her and always gave me, the usual cataholic, the CREEPS..
8:46 pm
72 Temple Owl

ooh gross

ny dad actually killed the cat that way
8:47 pm
Jacula

It's taken me 19 years to even think about wanting another dog after I had to take my beloved JRXSheltie to the vet to make his final journey. However, I have the cat from hell living with me at present, who fights off any other living creature that is not a human. I'd not like to subject a puppy or an older dog to his wrath.
8:47 pm
jmcnrick

i could use a suggestion for a costume since my idea was shot down
8:48 pm
Jillyjill

Wise woman Jacula!

Jillyjill

What was your idea jmc?

nrkii

and will it be for a party, or for handing out candy?
8:48 pm
Jacula

Jilly - your kitten story is scarey!
8:48 pm

8:51 pm
Jacula

Depends on how large your group is, jmc.
8:51 pm
Jillyjill

Well, actually we are driving to Missoula to spend the night. We fly out at the butt crack of dawn and that gives us a little more sleep. Plus we will keep our truck at the motel and save on parking.
8:51 pm
jmcnrick

well i am only in charge of my costume jac. . . not my party but a friend's
8:51 pm
nrkii

is it mixed politics, or all/most one side?
8:52 pm
Jacula

Ah... jmc.
8:52 pm
jmcnrick

8:52 pm

8:52 pm
Jacula

jmc - all in DC, all mostly one side, that shouldn't be too hard to do then! Has anyone suggested a theme?
8:54 pm
Jillyjill

I still see nothing wrong as a women in a binder...(still lmao)
8:54 pm
jmcnrick

no there is no theme but most of the costumes are either political or current events
8:54 pm
MollyL

Yes, I am the killjoy.
8:54 pm
jmcnrick

my boy says too many people are already doing it (his age anyway)
8:54 pm
Jacula

Or, jmc, you could all perhaps put adult things aside and just do it in your inner child way? All of you.

All Hallow's Eve was traditionally the time when the dead got to walk the earth and make mischief. Not all of the dead did bad things; some just did things to let their family know they were still keeping an eye on them.
8:56 pm
jmcnrick

big bird costumes are sold out. . .so i dont want to do what lots of other people are doing. . .i try to be unique
8:56 pm
BabbleRabble

9:01 pm
nrkii

If I come up with anything better, I'll let you know
9:02 pm
Jacula

I suppose the fact that the tradition is kept alive is one thing, but it's such a shame that the pagan roots are being lost.
9:02 pm
nrkii

jmc, I have an old doll costume... I'm not sure how well it will zombify
9:02 pm

to be current i would have to say "i oppose gay marriage because i am a moral man" :p
9:02 pm

9:16 pm
cosdem

ahh ok thought so but wanted to double check :)
9:16 pm
cosdem

and the masks is because they wanted to hide from Samhain right?
9:17 pm

People wore masks to "scare" away the spirits of the dead, believed to roam the Earth that night.

9:51 pm
dcseain

Yaktracks are fabulous for ice.
9:52 pm
