Winter In Ohio
Posted Feb 14, 2005
It's raining. Soon the rain will freeze and make everything look as if it's been dunked in doghnut glaze or sumthin'. All the trees and the tall grasses will be bent over from the weight of the ice as the temp. goes lower and lower.
The furnace will kick on and on. More than likely the cable system will fail. The phone might very well go out along with all the electrical stuff.
You don't dare venture out! Unless you're a World Class Ice Skater.
...wha' was the question?
Hmm.
Anyway, the Lake will make something known here as: Lake Effect Snow.
We'll be buried up to our snowmoblies in drifts. Probably won't even have the Postal Mail running.
Everyone will HAVE TO stay home!
Nine months from now the natal units will be busy!
I always wanted to Winter in the tropics again. But then ... I'd miss Winter in Ohio.

but, I don't WANT to pay taxes
Posted Jan 3, 2004
I, I, well, I mean, I do want the schools & such to do well. Couldn't I just go 'round to everything I support & hand them some cash?
I'm pretty good about donations & the like.
People freak out when I donate a huge gob of dead presidents.
So, why do *I* have to pay taxes.

When I was a little girl taking piano lessons from Mrs. Sprauge
Mr. O'Riley rented one of the rooms in her mansion...a ruby team
lived there too
Wha'?
Sorry...had a flashback to those fellas in their little shorts.
One Thanksgiving mama invited the entire team over for thanksgiving.
Wha'?
Sorry...I keep thinking about...those fella's...
Mr. O'Riley came too. I think it's because of him I can do a really good Irish dialect & a kick-a** Irish dare-a-lect-hic too!
Anyway...these guys from AU really liked the wine even more than the food. (Mrs. Sprauge fed um everything BUT wine )
The guys kept saying they were so 'pissed'!!!
Finally my father had been insulted enough! He demanded to know why the 'kids' were mad at us! The ruby-boys looked at eachother & burst out laughing. That was enough for papa! As he was pitching the 2cd guy out the door, someone was able to
stop laughing long enough to explain that being 'pissed' meant
'being drunk'! Pops picked up the kid from the lawn & brought him back in for more wine.
As I was thinking about the rugby team, er, I mean the olden days I thought...why not start a thread regarding the subject?
So...here I am...starting a thread regarding the subject!
I jussss love learning new stuff....'specially important stuff like what being pissed means! Natch, in America it means you're mad....other places, you're drunk.
Next...

I'LL BE BACK ASAP
Posted Feb 27, 2003
I JUSSSS HATE WHEN THIS HAPPENS...
I'VE MANAGED TO HURT MY RIGHT SHOULDER - EVEN TYPING THIS BRINGS TEARS TO MY EYES. NOT THE TEARS OF 'JOY'WHICH IS WHAT I'M USE TO BUT TEARS OF PAIN.
DUE TO A DUMBA*S ATTACK, OF MY OWN DOING, (MINE & MOTHER NATURE'S, WE'LL CALL IT PANDORA-VS-ICE / ICE WINS) I SHALL BE OFF LINE UNTIL I AM ABLE TO TYPE. NOT THAT I WAS A GOOD TYPIST BEFORE, HOWEVER, I CHOOSE TEARS OF JOY & EMOTIONAL PAIN (WHEN NECESSARY) INSTEAD OF TEARS OF 'OUCH PAIN' WHICH I AM EXPERIENCING NOW.
MISS YOU ALREADY.
~LOVE & PEACE~ PANDORA
