12:35 am

12:35 am

couple of different spellings for it..

12:35 am

no The Man

12:36 am

no idea what that DO7 word is cant find it yet

12:36 am

how are things in your neck of the woods just?

12:36 am

12:37 am

extremely humid which is hurting me :( but otherwise okay...my kids are out in BC..

12:37 am

gone to look for a place to live?

12:37 am

how 'bout you westie?

12:37 am

same here weather wise

12:38 am

well more for jobs...and dil wanted to renew her driver's permit there...rather than getting one here

12:38 am

plus see her family...

12:38 am

because of the last name thing?

12:39 am

no...she just has never taken to Quebec and/or Montreal life :(

12:39 am

oh I didn't mean the hang down your head guy this is another song

12:39 am

why was she there? work? school?

12:39 am

oh really??? well then, I've only know one song with that word!!

12:40 am

fo7

12:40 am

solo

12:40 am

hi ruru and pt too

12:41 am

she lived there....when her parents emigrated from Singapore, she was only about 10 or so....the last couple of years before she met my son, she had moved to Victoria, from Vancouver...but a BC'er

12:41 am

hi ruru -- enjoying the PB?

12:41 am

so they were meant to meet

12:41 am

was just heading there jilli wanna come?

12:42 am

both places are wonderful

12:42 am

she had a job in the pharmacy at a hospital in Victoria, and my son had gone out there on business, and that is how they met!

12:42 am

too bad they're not closer to each other

12:42 am

sure, if you bring the wine

12:43 am

pulls cork on fabulous Pinot Noir

12:43 am

aaahhh

12:43 am

uhh who, westie? they are married

12:43 am

I meant the places

12:43 am

BC and Quebec

12:44 am

I went to the wedding via pictures

12:44 am

yeah for sure...and esp with the gouging of Canadian airlines prices....it's cheaper for me to go to Europe than in my own country

12:44 am

but the wedding was in Vegas! lol

12:45 am

they actually just celebrated their 1st anniversary! in BC..

12:45 am

speaking of that did you hear about those poor people stuck on the tarmac for 6 hours?

12:45 am

where does the time go?

12:45 am

no I didn't ...where? in Vegas?

12:46 am

guessing they won't take Continental any more

12:46 am

Continental flight from Houston to Minneapolis. Stopped in Rochester and they wouldn't let them off the plane Sec of Transportation is looking into it

12:46 am

guess not (whaterver that meant)

12:47 am

there was just no reason for that

12:47 am

1 toilet too for 50 people

12:47 am

hmmm Rochester is kinda outta the way from Minn esp the flight originating in Houston, no?

12:47 am

and babies

12:48 am

Rochester MN

12:48 am

hope they throw the book at them, but they won't

12:48 am

ohh thought NY...

12:49 am

No offence my US friends, but this homeland security thing has really, really gotten way out of hand

12:49 am

no offense taken you're right

12:50 am

btw westie....have you ever had Tim Horton's coffee??

12:50 am

another plane landed and they bused the people 80 miles so they could have done the same with this crowd

12:50 am

no I haven't but we have a place here

12:51 am

we usually get Dunkin' Donuts coffee

12:51 am

I heard they got in trouble

12:51 am

Tim Horton's is a national coffee/donut/muffin franchise in Canada....named after and owned by an old time hockey player...

12:52 am

really? what the Puck?

12:52 am

our Bess Eaton Doughnuts is now a Tim Horton's

12:52 am

I read about that today...never knew they have franchises in RI....but they did set one up in Kandahar, Afghanistan...

12:52 am

lol ruru

12:52 am

they also have great soups, chili, sandwiches, etc

12:52 am

I have heard their hot chocolate is out of this world

12:53 am

all the soldiers, of all nationalities go to Timmy's there!

12:53 am

IceCap is good too (iced cappucino)

12:53 am

We used to have a lot of Dunkin Donut's here but now only a couple...Timmy's rules...at least that's what the people say

12:53 am

I didn't realize they had food too will have to give them a try

12:53 am

that's toooo good jilli, just had one yesterday!

12:54 am

maybe some don't, west

12:54 am

IceCap makes more sense now will save the hot chocolate for later

12:54 am

well they had a PR meltdown, there in RI, it seems

12:55 am

DD are on every corner but I'm always willing to try new things

12:55 am

they were to be a sponser of the non gay marriage thingy there....

12:55 am

oh yes I heard didn't know it was just RI

12:55 am

but we Canuncks hounded them over that! lol...then they backed out

12:55 am

wouldn't it be Tim mormons then?

12:55 am

as well they should

12:56 am

I heard they were going to give free coffee

12:56 am

mormons only believe in polygamy not homosexuality....the hypocrits

12:57 am

yes they were supposed to westie..but not now

12:57 am

well they don't drink or smoke they have to have some fun lol

12:57 am

** no comment ***

12:58 am

hey if they want x amount of wives and support them and all the kids....all the power to them, if that's their shtick

12:58 am

live and let live, I say...accent on the live...

12:58 am

shoves gag in mouth... mmmmpf

12:58 am

don't think that goes on much any more

12:58 am

if gays want to marry...all the power to them too...

12:59 am

such restraint ru

12:59 am

I know all about Jack Mormons

12:59 am

right just

12:59 am

out in BC, in the interior of the province, there's a cult of whatever, of people who practice polygamy

1:00 am

my husband has enough trouble with one wife

1:00 am

I'm sure many places do that we don't even know about and who cares...if they're peace loving people..it's their lives

1:00 am

so does mine westie :)

1:01 am

I think a polyamist or a gay married peaceful person is a helluva lot better than some religious fanatical homicide bomber

1:01 am

amen

1:02 am

well... given those options...

1:03 am

44 words left but have an appointment so will come back late - happy babbling

1:03 am

I have to go take care of cats hopefully I'll be back soon

1:03 am

any options ru...who cares what people do in the privacy of their own spaces, as long as no one gets hurt by it

1:04 am

what people do in the privacy of their own bedrooms is no one's business I agree

1:05 am

so all I'm saying is Live and Let Live...do your own thing and let me do mine, and don't go killing and bombing those who don't think like you.

1:05 am

I just have problem with these preachers calling gay people names and having sex with prostitutes and molesting young boys..etc

1:05 am

self righteous a-holes

1:05 am

sicko's abound in every culture ru...

1:06 am

they are the worst of the worst, I agree

1:06 am

esp when they are politicians and priests :(

1:07 am

arrrrgh.. dont' get me started with politicians

1:08 am

100 down and not liking this grid

1:08 am

and teachers and coaches and people of authority

1:09 am

the last 2 grids were murderous..hated them

1:09 am

I was molested by a teacher

1:09 am

It was pretty difficult after that

1:09 am

really? how old were you and were they male or female?

1:10 am

13 and she was my WEnglish teacher

1:10 am

that's horrible ru...so sorry something like that had to happen to you :(

1:10 am

she? wow...

1:11 am

hope you've been able to work through it...

1:12 am

sorta

1:12 am

hope so...

1:13 am

do you have any children, ru?

1:13 am

nope

1:13 am

never wanted?

1:14 am

not really.. no.. bad parents... didn't want to repeat the process

1:14 am

just curious, sort of, cause, my son (my only child) doesn't want any

1:15 am

Helo everyone...:)

1:15 am

hmm that may change with the right person

1:15 am

hi cj

1:15 am

late start here :(

1:15 am

he doesn't want for medical (his illness, might be passed on) and the state of this world in all its glory...

1:15 am

so another large grid I see

1:16 am

does he say why Just?

1:16 am

hi cj -- this one's not too bad -- big, though

1:16 am

no he's married now ru...just celebrated their 1st anniversay couple of days ago

1:16 am

oh.. honorable position just.. sounds like a smart kid

1:16 am

good, I didn't have time yesterday to finish it

1:16 am

congrats to him...how nice..

1:17 am

Every generation says they don't want to bring children into such a terrible world

1:17 am

Do you regret, now at this age, ru, not having at least one child...that's what I worry for him

1:17 am

ditto that...what ruru said :)

1:18 am

no.. not really.. I think parenting belongs to people who really want it and do their best to raise their kids in the best way to grow up to be productive and responsible people

1:18 am

I pray they get a bit smarter to make it a better place to be...is my hope anyway

1:19 am

Just, my son said he didn't want children, they didn't think they could anyway, she did get pregnant and he changed immediately - he's a terrific dad, they're together as much as possible

1:19 am

I never thought I'd ever have any kids, but I did end up with one, and now I don't know how I'd have ever lived without him

1:19 am

my wife now wants grand children however... I explained to her that we missed a step...

1:20 am

lol kinda....

1:20 am

I stopped at one, felt right and then 4 years later inherited 2 more

1:20 am

inherited??

1:20 am

wow

1:20 am

step children

1:20 am

wow

1:20 am

and they moved in with hubby and I

1:20 am

ohhh well that's nice....I hope

1:21 am

it was best for them of this I am sure

1:21 am

now I'm a grandma....nannie as I am called

1:21 am

If I hadn't have had a child, then, no matter what kinda hell he put me through, for a few years) I'd have never known what real true love is

1:22 am

I used to call my grandmother, Nannie, too :)

1:23 am

there are way too many young adults having kids and don't want to raise them or care to

1:23 am

I'll never be a Nannie, tho :( or a Bubby or Grandma, or whatever

1:23 am

you never know Just...

1:24 am

and Ru...I could send one your way...lol just kidding

1:24 am

I know cj :( and I've come to terms with it....as long as my kid is happy and at peace and living well, that's all I really can hope for

1:25 am

this is true, happiness is more important than anything

1:25 am

I think I didn't have a childhood so I dont' really relate

1:25 am

the youngest is 19 Ru

1:25 am

do you have any siblings, ru?

1:25 am

one brother..

1:26 am

are you two close

1:26 am

older, younger?

1:26 am

he is 4 years older... we talk often..he has changed a lot though

1:26 am

not trying to be nosey...can't help myself sometimes

1:27 am

does he have children?

1:27 am

did he experience the same as you, as a child growing up?

1:27 am

yes .. three boys

1:27 am

yes...

1:28 am

well that would make you a great uncle I bet

1:28 am

I like his boys.. they are nice kids

1:29 am

do you both live near each other?

1:29 am

about 2 hours away from each other..

1:29 am

he is a recovering alcoholic..

1:29 am

the perfect distance!

1:30 am

that is hard, my ex is 12 years sober

1:30 am

yes .. you know it is...

1:30 am

55 to go, I'm off to bed, goodnight all, be back in the morning

1:30 am

Didn't have the greatest childhood either...emotional abuse big time

1:30 am

night flosey sleep well...

1:30 am

night flosey

1:30 am

night flosey

1:30 am

I had that too.. just... and lots of physical abuse too

1:31 am

well done, flosey -- nightynight

1:31 am

crap I have 105 to go

1:31 am

some physical...my older sister married very young and was gone from the house when I was only 14

1:31 am

I had a great childhood, a bit sheltered...didn't have the abuse till I moved out then didn't know what to do

1:31 am

this is slow going

1:32 am

nobody talked about it back then

1:32 am

what do you mean after you moved out?

1:32 am

with my ex...he was abusive in all ways

1:32 am

after she moved out we became the best of friends for over 40 years and now we are totally estranged

1:32 am

that is true cj.. everythign was under the covers...

1:33 am

why is that?

1:33 am

but not until after I had my son, and I felt trapped

1:33 am

is that over the vacation thing just?

1:34 am

yes ru and it's worse than if she had died...

1:34 am

it took me 3 years to get away...now he's sober, and I forgave him...just will never forget

1:34 am

I'm sorry to hear that Just

1:34 am

did you know she was so petty and close-minded?

1:35 am

I understand that cj...there are somethings that just cannot be forgotten, and therefore not foregiven

1:35 am

i have just signed up for this puzzle but i think i'm doing something wrong. For every word i find it says '** does not in the puzzle'. i couldnt find even a word so far.

1:35 am

that isn't really true

1:35 am

did you look at the tips at bottom of page ozlem

1:35 am

the words have to be 4 letters long or longer oz

1:36 am

are you using letters twice oz?

1:36 am

and did you look at "Help" up above, oz?

1:36 am

it is true sometimes ru....

1:36 am

I believe in forgiveness

1:36 am

glad you thought of that jili, forgot about that lol just a wee bit tired

1:36 am

for example: i am typing 'ladder' but it doesnt exist in the puzzle.

1:37 am

how stupid could I admit to being if after 58 years I didn't know she was "so petty and close minded"?

1:37 am

also, oz, the letters have to touch

1:37 am

I do also, ruru, it was best for me to move on also

1:37 am

people do change though to just

1:38 am

too

1:38 am

I have always been the "bigger" one and went, with hat in hand, to apologize...not this time. This time she just really took my heart and sliced it to bits. I will not apologize for that

1:38 am

oh.. ouch.. I remember that she was a little self-centered and controlling

1:39 am

the only way I can deal with things like that is as long as I can look in the mirror and be ok

1:39 am

That is really too bad.. but you need to be grateful for the friends and family you do have...

1:39 am

those are the ones that matter

1:39 am

not so much her as her POS husband, to whom she's been married now for 49 years

1:40 am

pos?

1:40 am

piece of sh*t

1:40 am

thats a shame Just and I'm sorry to hear that

1:40 am

oh

1:40 am

such is life, eh?

1:40 am

that may have a lot to do with it too

1:40 am

gm

1:40 am

oh geez what are you doing up?

1:40 am

hi kje

1:41 am

hi kje

1:41 am

yes this is true, but we only get one go around...

1:41 am

hi jilli - long time

1:41 am

hi kje

1:41 am

seems I'm the only one to use your icon theme for today

1:41 am

hi just, ru, cj

1:41 am

cute one, jilli

1:42 am

I know cj but there's only so many times where you are to blame ...can't always be you

1:42 am

stuck at 108...really just been chatting

1:42 am

no it can't Just, sad that she can't see that as well

1:43 am

sorry for interruption but i'm playing a riddle game and i need to solve this puzzle to find the answer and the help page gets me nowhere because my words are still not accepted.

1:43 am

from what I remeber Just .. she went pyscho-bitch on you for no reason..

1:43 am

well to put it in a crude but descriptive manner...her "sh*t" don't stink

1:44 am

oz..make an example of a word you can't get

1:44 am

not that I'm making excuses for her, but her POS hubby pretty much goaded her into it...

1:44 am

funny too that he has had nothing to do with his own 3 brothers fro decades either

1:44 am

try refreshing the computer oz

1:45 am

for example : ladder , after etc.. none of them was accpeted.

1:45 am

ladder doesn't exist.. in a row

1:45 am

but ladder is not a word in this grid....

1:45 am

oz, the letters have to be touching each other

1:45 am

I've become a bi*** about certain things at this point in my life, but she needs to open her eyes

1:45 am

the letters have to connect

1:46 am

OOPS! get it now :). Thank you very much

1:46 am

ok... lots of 4 letter words though

1:46 am

I still have 38 to get!

1:47 am

it's now be over 7 months, I don't see any attempt. My hubby has been sooo good to them throughtout the years. They had no quarrel with him. But neither of them have ever even called him to see how he was...that has been the final straw for me

1:47 am

He should go home today--I hope so.

10:34 am

If you’d like to hear a radio interpretation of each meteor as it comes in over North America, the US Air Force Space Surveillance Radar (which is based in Archer County, Texas south of Wichita Falls), generates an audible signal each time one is detected

5:12 pm

some kind of disgusting cured fish

5:12 pm

ewwwww..... :P

Oh. Urgh :o(

5:12 pm

ptui ptui ptui!!

I *would* try it but I'm vegetarian.

5:13 pm

I like fish, but that sounds awful!

Who on earth thought that it would be a nice thing to eat?

5:14 pm

Vikings

There are some really gross foods around.

5:14 pm

people starving to death in Minnesota many years ago

5:14 pm

Is is a Norwegian delicacy mush appreciated by many

But cod is quite nice by itself. Why ruin it like that?

5:15 pm

makes it last longer for sea voyages and winters

Crazy Minnesota Norwegian vikings

5:16 pm

:-D

Still gross. Salting it would be preferable, I'm sure

Isn't lye used in soap?

5:17 pm

well its getting late so must go and get some shuteye, ... goodnight all and good luck.

5:17 pm

nite, mo

Night mo. Sleep tight

5:17 pm

my mother described how she used to make blood sausage when she was young

5:18 pm

night mo!

Don't like that either nrkii (and I have tried that one at least).

5:18 pm

also how she could skin a squirrel in one piece, and how good squirrel was when cooked

5:19 pm

nrkii .... black pudding ... lovely .... poof....

5:19 pm

I can't even imagine the appeal of blood sausage when you understand how it's made... talk about ewww

5:19 pm

sounds like Dolly Parton up in the holler!

Well, that I can understand. If you're going to eat meat, why be picky about which animal you'll scoff?

5:19 pm

My ancestors were Norwegian ... I don't apologize for that

5:20 pm

Une, she was in Massachusetts, but if the guys went hunting and only got squirrels, then they ate squirrels

5:20 pm

oh, I understand -- just teasing :-)

5:20 pm

Becca, I agree, but the idea of my mother at age 12 knowing how to skin a squirrel in one piece is kind of strange

5:21 pm

Mother's little helper . . .

Bet she could still do it if need be

5:21 pm

she's 70 now, and only mentioned it to us "kids" a few months ago

5:21 pm

Apparently they are not suppoosed to taste too bad - squirrels that is

5:21 pm

Becca, I'm sure you're right ... she could!

5:22 pm

there was someone here on the news that eats them - he had some in the freezer along with badger

5:22 pm

she says they're pretty good... I can't imagine they're much different than rabbit

5:22 pm

gamier

5:23 pm

i would imagine that you would need to casserole them - if they were old they might be tough

5:24 pm

with a nice nutty flavor LOL

5:24 pm

good one une

Time for me to go to bed. Good night folks, enjoy your squirrel!

5:24 pm

8:20 pm

howdy welki

8:21 pm

Hi there, welki.

8:22 pm

about two months before puppy is born?

8:22 pm

who's ?.. yours?

8:22 pm

yours, i thought

8:23 pm

i thought you were getting one from a december litter

8:23 pm

no.. mine will be born in November sometime if the breeding takes..

8:23 pm

I think January is more likely...I can't wait...

8:23 pm

I have been moping around here without my own dog to love.

8:24 pm

i made a mistake; thought you were getting one from an october litter in december . but now i see :)

8:24 pm

will make the pup all the more precious

8:24 pm

qy7?

8:24 pm

oops, qu7?

man, I didnt start.

8:25 pm

my poor golden. i've been trying to learn how to trim him myself; i'm not doing very well .... you'd probably laugh your tush off

8:25 pm

I am really good at grooming..

Ru, I am sorry....and Welki, i took teulu to the groomer once, and she gave him a lion cut, like the little fluffy dogs. he looked quite bad for a long itme.

should I start this grid?

8:26 pm

a qu7 is a question beginning + the beginning of the state next to montana

8:26 pm

bought a good scissor and thinning shears ... and i follow the directions. have done his feet a few times and i'm almost comfortable, even though they still don't look "quite right" ... am scared to death to try his ears

8:26 pm

...and tail

8:26 pm

It isn't too bad red.. not really bad at all

8:26 pm

...and hocks

8:26 pm

...and everything else!

8:27 pm

the hocks are easy..

Ru, are you trying to suck me in? or?

8:27 pm

take a brush and comb all the hock hair in one direction and clip the hairs in a line at a slight angle

8:27 pm

planning on a trip to calgary anytime soon? :)

8:28 pm

then brush it over to the other side and do the same so they are balanced.

8:28 pm

in one direction .. up or down?

8:28 pm

I groomed my dogs for show.. even the handler wouldn't touch them they looked to good

8:28 pm

I go up in one direction..

8:29 pm

*looking up westjet schedules*

8:29 pm

take a little off at a time to get the feel of it

8:29 pm

I leave them about an inch or two off the hock.

8:30 pm

got the qu7, was going the wrong way for the clue

8:30 pm

i sure do love how his feet look when they're all nice and tidy

8:30 pm

good shirl.. hard to vlue

8:31 pm

if you brush the hair back between the toes the other directions so that they are sticking up like a cow-lick.. thake the thinning shears and trim the high hairs down

8:31 pm

hard to clue that is..

8:32 pm

BR would have been more clever

8:32 pm

(sorry if the dog trimming convo is boring, other babblers) ... i find that i use the shears more than the scissors (coward, i am)

8:33 pm

scissors are way better

8:33 pm

I'll show you one of my grooming jobs... just a sec

8:33 pm

if you leave now, you could be here by breakfast, if you drive ... or i can pick you up at the airport :)

actually, welki, its very interesting. but unfortunately, I will never be too good at the grooming...

8:34 pm

i'm thinking that i won't ever be either, red

8:35 pm

refresh welki

8:35 pm

of course, the fact that as soon as bax is nice and clean, he finds a nice stinky something to roll around in doesn't helf much

8:35 pm

i'm refreshed! (wish it was that simple)

8:36 pm

is that monty?

8:36 pm

that is Lily his half-sister

8:36 pm

Monty was unbelievably gorgeous

8:36 pm

beautiful color, ru ... bax is the color of honey

8:37 pm

Lily ws very blond

8:37 pm

ears. how the heck do you get them to look so trim?

if you can tie flies, welki, I imagine with practice you could be a very good careful groomer.

8:37 pm

need a glass of wine.. I think..

8:37 pm

red, i tried to learn how to tie flies. my first attempt ended up with something that looked like a small sheep *LOL*

8:38 pm

You could take a class from a groomer in your local club...it is so fun and easy

8:38 pm

i can tie flies onto my line, that's about it

8:38 pm

Hi all,and welki, is Bax a dog? If so, it's not surprising he found something nasty to roll in after being washed. Our old dog's favourite was fox poo.

8:38 pm

what is it with dog's and other animal pooh

8:39 pm

hi jac .. yep, baxter is a golden retriever. the best rollers were my basset hounds; they could find a meadow muffin in a desert

8:39 pm

it's ^^^^parfume^^^^ to them

8:40 pm

Try haaving a Jack Russell, welki - they know just how to weld the fox poo smell into their collars.

8:41 pm

but .. you can easily pick them up and put them in the tub. a fully rolled basset hound must be carted to the dog wash! lolol

8:41 pm

*trys not TO SNIFF in memory."

8:42 pm

*hugs* jac .. i miss them, too. wish they were here, stink and all

8:42 pm

or6/24?

8:43 pm

group sex

8:43 pm

subtle, ru

8:44 pm

I thought so too...lol

8:44 pm

You can pick a jJack R up and put him into a tub, you can also shampoo him. if hehasn't scratched your bath to helll first.... but he will get his revenge, unless you know that you must hold a dog's shoulders and rump at the same time as you stop thr water or take the towel off.

8:44 pm

hey for a word like that, who needs subtle? thx ruru

8:45 pm

I took a poke at it..lol

8:45 pm

Blimey! There was I talking about pets and group sex suddenly came into chat.

8:45 pm

poke, HA! freudian slip!

8:45 pm

g'night folks .. going to try to get some mid-week housecleaning in

8:46 pm

you finish welki?

8:46 pm

yes .. do you need clues before i go?

8:46 pm

That's very saintly of you, welki. Can you come and do my ouse when you've done with your own?

8:47 pm

no thank you.. just glad you finished.

8:47 pm

i can't, jac .. i have to pick ru up at the airport in the morning so he can groom baxter

8:47 pm

I don't need clues; finished long ago.

8:48 pm

Hi Jilli. My worst sexual experiience was succumbing in semi-publi place and then realising that I'd laid my head down on human poo. I washed my newly done hair (only that afternoon) so much that night that my Mum feared I had some kind of disorder.

hello all

8:58 pm

hi TO

8:58 pm

jilli - I may ot be able to type correctly tonight, but maybe it's because one of my guinea pigs died.

9:05 pm

ruru -- Shih Tzu

9:06 pm

Cecil and Frederick walk into a pub in the central outback of Australia… Frederick says "Oooooh, I feel like a Gin… actually, Gin and Tonic!' Cecil walks up to the barman and says, 'I'll have a Gin and Tonic…. No, make that two Gin and Tonics!" The barman folds his arms, looks Cecil straight in the eye and says… 'What type of gin do you want?' Cecil says, 'Well, what do you have?'

The barman says, 'we have 3 types of Gin here… hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen' Cecil gets a little flustered and says…. 'Ooooh, I don't know… let me go ask Frederick' He minces up to Frederick and says 'Daaaarling, I don't know what to order. The barman says they have 3 types of gin here… hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. What do you think I should get?' Frederick says, 'Sit down Cecil, I'll get the drinks.'

10:00 pm

Frederick walks up to the barman and says, "I'll have a turd please, no, make that two turds.' The barman looks around at all the bottles and says, 'What is a turd?' Frederick says, 'Well, there are 3 types of turd… there is mustard, custard and you, you big shit!

this grid is too easy... and I am comparing it to yesterdays b!tch of a grid

While shopping in a food store, two nuns happened to pass by the beer. The first nun said it would be nice to enjoy a beer. The second nun answered that, indeed, it would be very nice to have one, but that she wouldn't feel comfortable about buying it. The first nun replied that she could handle that without a problem.. So, she picked up a six-pack and took it to the cashier.

10:07 pm

lol autumn, i see your point!

The cashier had a surprised look on his face, so the nun said, 'We use beer for washing our hair; a sort of shampoo, if you will.'

10:12 pm

ker-fl 6/27

10:12 pm

when things go wrong

Yeah but where's the rest of the joke?

Without blinking an eye, the cashier reached under the counter, pulled out a package of pretzel sticks and placed them in the bag with the beer. He then looked the nun straight in the eye, smiled, and said, 'The curlers are on the house.'

Ha ha, good one!

10:14 pm

A woman was sitting at a bar enjoying an after work cocktail with her girlfriends when an exceptionally tall, handsome, extremely sexy, middle-aged man entered. He was so striking that the woman could not take her eyes off of him. The young-at-heart man noticed her overly attentive stare and walked directly toward her. (As All men will.) Before she could offer her apologies for staring so rudely, he leaned over and whispered to her, "I'll do anything, absolutely anything , that you want me to do, no matter how kinky, for $20.00................on one condition" Flabbergasted, the woman asked what the condition was. The man replied, "You have to tell me what you want me to do in just three words." The woman considered his proposition for a moment, and then slowly removed a $20 bill from her purse, which she pressed into the man's hand along with her Address. She looked deeply into his eyes, and slowly and meaningfully said.............. "Clean my house."

10:21 pm

"You've Gotta Love The Irish!" At a U2 concert in Ireland, Bono (the lead singer) asks the audience for some silence. Then he starts to slowly clap his hands.</p> Holding the audience in total silence, he says into the microphone... "I want you all to think about something. Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies." A voice from the front of the audience yells out... "Then stop clappin', ya asshole!" You've gotta love the Irish!

10:25 pm

God says, "Done, Michael Jackson, you're dead too!!"

"Ten Pints Of Guinness" A texan walks in to a pub in Ireland and clears his voice to the crowd of drinkers. He says, "I hear you Irish are a bunch of hard drinkers. I'll give $500 American dollars to anybody who can drink ten pints of Guinness, back-to-back." The room is quiet, and no-one takes up the Texan's offer. One man even leaves. Thirty minutes later the same gentleman who left shows back up and taps the Texan on the shoulder. "Is your bet still good?" asks the Irishman. The texan says "Yes," and asks the bartender to line up ten pints of Guinness. Immediately the Irishman tears into all ten of the pint glasses, drinking them all back-to-back. The other pub patrons cheer as the Texan sits in amazement. The Texan gives the Irishman the $500 and says, "If ya don't mind me askin', where did you go for that half hour you were gone?" The Irishman replies, "Oh... I had to go to the pub down the road to see if I could do it first."

A woman takes a lover home during the day while her husband is at work. Her 9 year old son comes home unexpectedly, sees them, and hides in the bedroom cupboard. Then the woman's husband also comes home. Panicked, she puts her lover in the cupboard, not realising that the little boy is in there already. The little boy says, "Dark in here." The man says, "Yes, it is." Boy "I have a football." Man "That's nice." Boy "Want to buy it?" Man "No, thanks." Boy "My dad's outside." Man "OK, how much?" Boy - $250 A few weeks later, it happens again that the boy and the lover are in the cupboard together. Boy "Dark in here." Man "Yes, it is." Boy "I have football boots." The lover, remembering the last time, asks the boy, "How much?" Boy "$750" Man "Sold." A few days later, the boy's father says to the boy, "Grab your boots and football, let's go outside and have a game of footy. The boy says, "I can't, I sold my ball and boots." The father says, "What?! Why?! How much did you sell them for?" Boy - "$1,000." The father says, "That's terrible to overcharge your friends like that. That is far more than those two things cost. You're going to church to confess!" They go to the church and the father makes the little boy sit in the confession booth and he closes the door. The boy says, "Dark in here." The priest says, "Don't start that shit again".
