Good Thursday Morning, Crew!

[Clintmax]

:donut::hi:
Welcome to the Thursday edition of the Early Morning Crew thread! :bounce: I hope you had a good Hump Day yesterday and now that we're through it, the weekend is closer than ever! :bounce: Holey moley time flies, doesn't it?

I decided to wait until Friday to get my new camera! I'll savor the delicious anticipation a couple more days!

As you are well aware, there has been a LOT of talk the past few days about gay marriage. Bills getting presented to vote on to amend our constitution banning it, even when there's NO chance in hells of it passing. It was an obvious ploy by the you-know-whats to drum up support for the upcoming elections. :eyes: Ridiculous! Didn't you know that the day Greekspeak and I got married, nuclear winter would promptly ensue and all marriages now on the books would be null and void? :eyes: Gladly, it was re-soundly defeated.

:rofl:

And now, Thursday begins! So let's get this new day started, shall we?! :bounce:

113. DU seems to be

rerunning your mornings. Hope you don't mind reliving the week!

[Clintmax]

115. LOL! Yes...

Somebody who shall remain nameless but whose initials are Random_Australian kicked them all! :rofl:

[riona]

RA? - I'm shocked!

[Clintmax]

122. ROFL!

Don't be...that's just like him! :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

136. Just like me? I WILL MAKE ALL PEOPLE LIKE ME, I am a militant Athesit.

:)

[Clintmax]

139. Well then there you go!

:rofl:

[Random_Australian]

155. EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! (Translation: good night, have a

lovely day!)

[Random_Australian]

142. Calling me out is it? OH NO! I am shocked! Ok I admit it, tj did it.

And buffy did it.

I had NOTHING to do with what flvegan did.

Because it was MissHoneyChurch. With the help of Joan_Alpern.

Who all looked on as Rabrrrr did it.

Not me.

[Random_Australian]

2. Morning!

[Clintmax]

4. Good Morning, Random!

:hi:
Are you having a good time this AM?

[Random_Australian]

12. PM, yes. I am plenty glad to hear that that legislation got smashed.

Stupid, stupid piece of paper.

[Clintmax]

15. Yes, it was.

I'm glad you're having fun no matter WHAT time of day it is! :bounce:

[Random_Australian]

18. Yup, I got my psych essay back today; my mark was fourteen higher

than I thought it would be!

[Clintmax]

31. Well, congratulations, Random!

That's got to feel good! :bounce:

[Random_Australian]

39. It does! Good cheer all round! Anyway anyway anyway anyway,

That was the other thing! We have another FReeper around! Can't call them out, but they appeared in R/T and started talking about how lovely the people who take the Bible literally are, and how not outlawing (x,y,z) hurts the left et cetera. Sounded reasonable, then started up about the 'militant atheists' controlling the dems. Then it clicked. Got a severe case of the "I'm a persecuted Christian" complex, too.

Fun fun fun. Will hold semi-rational conversations for a while, then flamebait. I lurve toasting trolls! (As per my sig) (Only after there is a wide consensus that they are, in fact, trolls, and I only flamebait in ways trolls go nuts over too)

[Clintmax]

44. *grin* You're so bad, young man!

I LOVE it! :rofl: You keep right on doing it too! :bounce:

[Random_Australian]

53. It is a great, great outlet for my evil sense of humour.

Soooooo evil a sense of humour, soooooo nice a person usually, so when fReeps are detected, I bait them with extreme care & accuracy, to ensure a nice, even explosion of the head.

Keeping DU safe, & clean. You never know, next they'll allow them evul gays in here! *shock* *gasp*
(And sarcasm, of course)

On the upside, working out a system of morality from the laws of physics is going rather well, in fact, I seem to be making on hell of a moral system. More on that later......

So, hump day is over, weekend soon. For me that means STUVAC. Which means exas are soon! OH NO!

[Clintmax]

56. Exams soon, huh?

Well, I wish you good luck with THAT! I know how nerve wracking they can be. :hug:

[Random_Australian]

61. Uh huh. I have sooooooo much to learn. Good thing about that memory thing.

Anyway, yay Hydrogen fuell cells, how are you? I never asked!

[Clintmax]

65. I'm doing just fine, thank you!

Lots of work to do at the store, so the days go by fairly quickly! :bounce:

[Random_Australian]

70. Yep, there is the store, there is the rest of the life, and then there is

invalidating other peoples marriages / making atheism the official religion.

[Clintmax]

72. LOL! Yep, you got it!

:rofl:
See, that's what would happen if the hommasexuals got married! :eyes:

[Random_Australian]

78. Yup. *ahem* Anyway, how goes

destroying the family unit the high explosives that you will use on churches, as a communist store?

[Clintmax]

81. *smile* Hey, I'm not like that...

Although some people (fundies for example) completely believe I am. Fuck'em. :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

86. Well, a bit of THAT spirit will go a lot further than Pat's, let me tell

you! Oh wait, I did just tell you!

Anyway, that was the other thing about the working out a system of morality from the laws of physics, I hope on day to create a fundy-reducing algorithm! Wish me luck!

[Clintmax]

103. I wish you all the luck in the world, Mate!

That's quite an idea you have there! I hope it works out! :bounce:

[Random_Australian]

106. Thankyou. Did you notice that SOMEONE (who?????) kicked all the

morning crew threads from days around today to the top of the page?

WHO WOULD POSSIBLY DO THAT????????????

[Clintmax]

114. LOL!

Now, everyone is going to be wondering what in the hells is going on with THAT! :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

120. Never! Ok perhaps anyone reading before coffee.....

I think it was Buffy! O8)

NEVER me!

:)

Ann Coulter has finally been knocked out of GD - by Captain Co-incidental Death.

[Clintmax]

123. No, never you!

:rofl:

[Random_Australian]

128. Anyway, did you know that if you attach one pendulum to the end

of another pendulum, it's motion creates a fractal pattern that never repeats & is infinitely sensitive to initial conditions? (It goes freaky)

[Clintmax]

137. Ummm...no, I didn't know that...

I'm picturing the contraption in my mind now...and I can see how it would create a fractal pattern like that.

[Random_Australian]

151. Nighty night time! The Lounge will sure become more mischevous

without my calming presence. I never kicked those threads! Honest! Someone else did it!

Goodnight Clint!

(One of the very many secrets in enjoying life is to look forward to going to bed - no insomnia ever(unless you get MDD or similar))

[Clintmax]

159. G'night, Random, you trouble maker!

:rofl:
:hi:

[NMMNG]

62. But surely you can see how harmless it is

to let the Fundies squash just a few civil rights so they don't think we're opposed to their deeply held beliefs? :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

68. MILITANT ATHESIT!!!! YEW MILITANT ATHESITS JUST WANT TO

FORCE THE PROPER, LORD RESPECTEN KRISHNAS OUT OF THE PARTY! KORAN KISSERS!!!!!!!!!!!

YOU ARE JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE YOU ATHESITS JUST ARE NOT SMART ENOUGH TO FIND GOD!!!!!!!!

Athesit!

[NMMNG]

73. You!

I almost spit M&Ms all over my computer screen! :rofl:

[Random_Australian]

80. I thought you might like it. :)

How are you?

[Random_Australian]

152. G'night Buffy!

[tjwmason]

9. Good evening Random.

:hi:

Hope you've had a splendiferous day.

:hug:

[Random_Australian]

14. Yes indeed, my psych essay was fourteen higher than I expected!

[tjwmason]

35. That's wonderful news.

Shows that you're a genius as well as being witty and stunningly beautiful (which we already knew).

Congratulations. :toast:

[Random_Australian]

45. Thanks, man! Anyway, I hear that Yank bill got it's socks knowcked off.

Hooray! :party:

[tjwmason]

87. What's the legal position in Oz?

We've recently got civil partnerships - they provide all of the legal benefits of marriage without using the term (my guess is that this was to get them in without much noise, then in a few years they'll all be turned into civil marriages). The Act wasn't even controversial - a large number of Conservatives voted in favour of it in the Commons and the Lords.

I don't automatically see John Howard being a great fan of gays though.

[Random_Australian]

93. The ACT introduced a civil unions bill, got it passed simply, but now

the federal government squashed it. You are quite right - John Howard is NOT a fan of gay marriage. However, in some years time, it should become legal, but it may take a while.

[Random_Australian]

156. G'night tj!

[tjwmason]

161. Good night Random.

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

3. Good morning Clint

I heard it in the news that the bill didn't go through. Boy, am I am glad to hear that. It is so ridiculous. I can't udnerstand why people feel threatend by two men or two women being married to each other.


Tomorrow the World Cup starts. My friend and I think about going to a public viewing of the first game. Germany vs. Costa Rica. I just hope the German team doesn't embarrass itself.

[Clintmax]

7. Good Morning, Miss Honey!

:hi::hug:
I don't understand it either. I guess people like to hang on to their prejudices. :shrug: Going to the World Cup sounds like fun! I'll cross my fingers for Germany to win also! :bounce:

[MissHoneychurch]

11. Hey, I live in the country who is having the World Cup this year

it is the best chance to feel the excitement and be part of it. Even though I am not a big fan of soccer, I enjoy watching the World Cup. And once the World Cup is over, the Tour de France starts :bounce:

[Clintmax]

17. Yes, and THAT is fun to watch too!

Is everything at work going good again today?

[MissHoneychurch]

27. Yes, work is going good

and now it is time to get outr during my lunch break. See you in a bit :hi:

[Clintmax]

30. OK! Have a good lunch, my dear!

:hug::loveya:
See you shortly!

[MissHoneychurch]

66. OK, I'm back

and eating my rhubarb :9

[Clintmax]

69. Rhubarb??

YUCK! :rofl: I've never liked the stuff.

[MissHoneychurch]

74. I LOVE it!!!

my mom used to make a vey yummy dessert out of it (I can cook it myself these days) with pudding. Very yummy :9 I have to buy me new rhubarb this weekend to make some more.

[Clintmax]

76. I'm glad YOU enjoy it...

I guess SOMEBODY has to eat it! :rofl: Not me though! :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

79. I am sure there is food you love

and I detest

[Clintmax]

83. Oh, I'm sure!

Everyone is different in their likes and dislikes of certain foods! As it should be!

[MissHoneychurch]

109. True, so true

For example I don't like raisins. I like wine in its fresh form and in the bottled form., but not in the dried one. Also I detest fish but I love seafood like shrimp and crab meat. I am weird, I know :)

[Clintmax]

116. Hmmm...let's see...I like raisins,

don't like wine in any form, love fish and detest seafood of all kinds. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

119. We better not cook together then

:rofl:

[Clintmax]

125. LOL! No...probably should just go out to eat!

That way, we can each have what we like! :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

140. Quite a good idea

and that way we can concentrate on our conversation and not on the cooking :rofl:

Lat night I made a soup of

+ +

and made a cream soup out of it. It was quite yummy. Tonight I'll have the leftovers

[Clintmax]

146. What's the middle one?

I can't make out the picture.

[MissHoneychurch]

160. Kohlrabi

the online dictionary translates it as

cabbage turnip = stem cabbage = stem turnip = turnip cabbage

I don't know which is the correct English expression.

[Clintmax]

163. Oh, OK...I know what it is now.

I'm off to go get ready for work now, Miss Honey! I'll see you in the morning! :hug::hi:

[tjwmason]

10. Good morning Miss Honeychurch

:hi:

though only by about 2 minutes...

Hope all's going well in Germany.

:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

19. Good morning tj

I still can say it without problems as you are one hour behind.

Everything is fine here. The country has only one topic these days: SOCCER. And that Michael Ballack can't be part of the first game. :eyes:

How are things in the U.K.?

[tjwmason]

40. It's much the same here.

Everybody (apart from me) seems to be obsessed with this damn football tournament.

Yesterday the Prime Minister had a special annoucement that he's going to fly the St. George Cross from Downing Street during England's matches - it doesn't even have a flag-pole :eyes:

Our streets are also covered with flags, they're selling really cheap ones to be flown from cars - which predictably fall off in a couple of days and sit in the gutter for days.

[MissHoneychurch]

71. You won't believe the merchandise here

it is nutz. You cna get everything - and I mean everything - related to the game. Be it soccer balls and trikots, be it Nutella in a ball formed glass, be it cheese formed as balls .... there is nothing that isn't possible,

[tjwmason]

90. Unfortunately a lot of our merchandise

has an horrifically predictable anti-German over-tone. :eyes:

Some people really don't seem to realise that the war's over, and we're friends with Germany now.

[MissHoneychurch]

97. I nthink the British tabloids will always bring it up

to every possible situation.

[Callalily]

98. Morning MissH!

Sounds like that's quite a sports agenda for Germany! I think watching a REAL LIVE WORLD CUP soccer game would be fun, although I really don't watch much soccer. There seems to be much more excitement at the game itself, much more energy, than watching on TV. Do you get off of work again?

[MissHoneychurch]

108. Good morning SimplyF

I won't watch the games in a stadion but on a big screen they build in the river. I think that it will be fun with all those people. Here is a pic how it is supposed to be



My next day off is Thursday in a week. Another public holiday. :D

[Callalily]

127. I swear MissH

Germany has public holidays almost one a week!

Thanks for the pic, that's quite a setup. Yes, it'll be fun being among the crowd. The excitement is contagious. Makes the experience, the game much more fun.

[MissHoneychurch]

131. Well this time of the year

we have quite a lot I admit. But the next one will be only in October :cry:

I am glad I could convince my friend to come with me to watch the game. We want to buy some food and something to drink and then we can enjoy the game and the surrounding.

[Callalily]

143. Sounds like a good

time, and food at those venues are always so tasty! Maybe you'll be able to take some pics and share with us (hint hint).

Gotta get going, so I'm wishing you a good day today.

[MissHoneychurch]

149. You have a great day SimplyF

:hug:

And I will take my small camera with me to make pics, I promise :)

[billyskank]

5. Good morning Clinticles

:hi:

[Clintmax]

8. LOL! Good Morning, Billy!

:hi:
That nickname...I swear! :rofl:

[auntAgonist]

101. Clinticles!!! billy you are a hoot!

:hug: I hope you're doing well this morning.

:loveya: :hug: :loveya:


aA
:hi:

[Random_Australian]

124. Sure, I am fine! How about you?

:hug:

:loveya::hug::loveya:


























Ok so I am not billy.......

[auntAgonist]

148. dagnabit you ALMOST had me fooled

:rofl:

I'm doing very well this morning RA, I hope your day's a good one. Although, your day is probably almost over by now. I think you're about 14 hours or so ahead of me (?). That would make it at this time of posting, somewhere around 9:30pm?


:hi:
:hug:
aA

[billyskank]

150. Hi aA!

:hug:

[In_The_Wind]

176. billyskank

[billyskank]

178. Joaneeeee ~

:hug: :loveya: :hi:

[tjwmason]

6. Good morning Clint.

:hi:

I'm actually awake and in a good mood today (something must be wrong there ;) ).

Just coming to the end of Bach's Orchestral Suites - which includes the famous (and infamous) Air on the G-string (as it's commonly called).

:hug:

[Clintmax]

13. Good Morning, TJ!

:hi::hug:
Being awake and in a good mood is a good thing, Man! :bounce: I'm happy for ya! Hey, even I have heard of "Air on the G-String"! :bounce:

[tjwmason]

32. I know it's good - but it's very rare round here.

:eyes:

and I'm playing something that Clint's heard of - well that calls for :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Clintmax]

37. Yeah, no doubt!

bouncy bouncy! :bounce::bounce: :rofl:

[tjwmason]

54. You probably haven't heard of the new piece

but it's a fascinating story.

It's actually a new piece by Bach - Alles mit Gott a strophic sacred aria for soprano and continuo.

Nobody knew it existed, but then a little over a year ago a scholar was looking through an old archive in Germany and found a manscript - the hand-writing looked like that of Bach, and so a load of musicologists studied it, and now it's been recognised as a genuine new work of his. Pretty amazing given that it was written in 1713.

[Clintmax]

57. Wow! I didn't know that!

That's kinda exciting, huh? Finding a work like that from so long ago, previously unheard! :bounce:

[tjwmason]

89. It's amazing really.

But at the time they'd just have been stuck into a book and forgotten - then 300 years later out they pop.

[Clintmax]

105. Amazing!

I just wonder how many more there are like that out there?

[ScreamingMeemie]

16. Good morning Clintmax!

But you have it all wrong... The day you and Greekspeak got married would be the day you undermine my marriage to MrG, forcing us to divorce in shame and disgust... upending the lives of our children... hurting our families. Why can't you just be happy with the way things are. If it wasn't for activist judges we wouldn't have to worry about this you know... ;) :D :hug: :loveya:

[Clintmax]

21. Good Morning, MrsG!

:hi::hug:
Yes, I know...it's ALL the activist judges fault! :eyes:

How are YOU doing this morning?

[ScreamingMeemie]

23. I am okay. School year is winding down. My daughter has two more

days of finals and then she's done and the little guy gets off next week. I am looking forward to having them home. :) :loveya:

[Clintmax]

29. That's good!

I remember how much I always looked forward to summer vacation when I was a kid! The whole family would go camping for two whole weeks every year! It was fun! I'm sure you ARE looking forward to having them at home! :hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

33. We just renewed our Zoo membership and my son loves the polar

bear exhibit. I imagine we will spend a lot of time there this summer. :hi:

[Clintmax]

41. I love to go to the zoo too!

There IS no zoo in Tallahassee, so I'd have to go to Orlando. But Seaworld is there, so...:woohoo:

[ScreamingMeemie]

48. I love Seaworld!!!

:bounce: If you ever make it up here, I'll take you to the Zoo! :hug:

[Clintmax]

51. YAY! I would LOVE that!

How fun would it be to go to the zoo together?! :bounce:

[ScreamingMeemie]

95. It would be so much fun!!

We could make squashed penny souvineres of all the exhibits! :hug:

[Clintmax]

107. LOL! Yes, we could!

That would be fun too! :bounce::hug:

[tjwmason]

22. Good morning Mrs. G.

:hi:

Good to see you bouncing around the Lounge today.

:hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

24. Hi tj!

And it is always wonderful to see you as well. :hug: :loveya:

[tjwmason]

42. Sounds like you're in for some fun with the summer holidays.

Schools don't break-up here until mid-July.

Even though I've got no actual connection with schools, it's easy to spot because the traffic first thing in the morning is so much lighter.

:loveya:

[ScreamingMeemie]

50. Which makes for a much easier commute into work, eh?

It's easy here, because there are tons of children hanging out in front of the local store. :)

:hug:

[tjwmason]

55. Easier for everybody else.

no difference for me as I walk to work.

Somewhat calmer though, half of my walk is down a quite private road with trees on both sides and birds singing everywhere - then the second half is by quite a large road.

[ScreamingMeemie]

96. That sounds so nice...

I envy you. :)

[billyskank]

25. ...

:hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

28. Hi there beautiful billy...

:loveya:

[NMMNG]

20. Good morning Clint!

Yes, the FMA was defeated again! :woohoo: And in related news, Rick Santorum's marriage is heading for divorce court. :rofl:

But of course the wingnuts aren't done trying to instill theocracy in America just yet: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=263x18921




Yes, let's not let the sun go down on us! Sing it! :woohoo:

[Clintmax]

26. Good Morning, Miss Buffy!

:hi::hug:
Thank you for the link, my dear! It's all so ridiculous. When are people going to wake up? :shrug:

[NMMNG]

34. Lots of people are awake but can't do anything,

because all the wrong people are in power and the others are just kissing their butts or being namby pamby.

Then there are those who are either utterly clueless or actually apologists for the Religious Right.

That last group is by far the scariest. :scared:

[Clintmax]

43. You got THAT right!

The religious right is pretty damned scary. I stay WELL away from them. :scared:

[NMMNG]

47. I try to

But somehow they just keep pushing themselves into my life. :cry:

[Clintmax]

52. I know...

fuckers. x(

They aren't happy unless they're screwing with somebody all the time.

[NMMNG]

58. Yeah

And then they act like such prudes. :rofl:

[Clintmax]

59. Every single time!

:rofl:
How's work today, my dear?

[NMMNG]

63. Long story

I'll have to tell you another time....

[Clintmax]

67. One of THOSE, huh?

There is a LOT going on at my store right now too, so the days go by pretty fast. At least I have a vacation coming up! :bounce:

[NMMNG]

75. Oh yeah, rub it in.

:cry:


I have to go home and do more home improvement crap, do laundry, then come back to work. Then more crap at home, and work, and more crap at home, and work....you get the picture. x(

I think I have one day off coming up later this month though....

[Clintmax]

77. Only one??

Good gods, woman...you need more than THAT! What's wrong with those people?? :hug:

[NMMNG]

82. That's how it is when you work two jobs

:shrug: I get three "use them or lose them" days off every quarter from the one job so I use them for sure. Then I get annual leave from both jobs that I save for my actual vacations or use in little chunks for urgent needs that arise (like if something comes up that I absolutely have to do). I'm going to end up taking time off for my upcoming move, for example.

[Clintmax]

88. Ok, well at least you get THAT.

I guess that's a pitfall of working two jobs. I'm sorry you have to do that, my dear. :hug:

[auntAgonist]

36. goodmorning everyone!

Hope you all are doing well!
An early day for me today, I'm usually sleeping for another 4 hours hehe.

:hi:
aA

[Clintmax]

38. Good Morning, Aunt!

:hi:
Welcome to the Early Morning Crew thread! It's good to have you today! :bounce:

[auntAgonist]

100. nice to see you Clint, you have quite a following

:)
Looks like a beautiful day for travelling. We're getting ready to go on vacation for 4 days. A 5.5 hour trip to Ontario Canada, leaving around 9am.


:hug:

aA

[Clintmax]

110. We have a good time every day here in the Crew thread!

I hope you have a wonderful time on vacation, aA! I've got one coming up in a couple of weeks! :bounce: I can't wait!

[Starbucks Anarchist]

46. Good morning, Clintmax!

[Clintmax]

49. Good Morning, Starbucks!

:hi::bounce:

[riona]

60. Fl check-in

Morning Clint. My hubbie and I can't figure out why gay marriage can't be legalized. Why the fundies have problems with it - well, to me it's like getting uptight about a beautiful, sunny day. Glad we don't have to clutter our brains with their senseless beliefs.

[Clintmax]

64. Good Morning, Miss Flblu!

:hi:
I think the fundies think they have to have control of SOMEBODY'S life. We're an easy target. I'm glad we don't have to clutter our brains with their senseless beliefs also. It would be an awful way to go through life.

[LaurenG]

84. Good Morning Clintmax!

Since you brought up the gay marriage bill I have to tell someone about
the dream I had last night and I wondered if someone should get a toaster or just some toast.

To set this up my very first boyfriend determined that he was gay (years ago of course) and he hooked up with a dear friend (our families were friends since we were little)who realized that he too was gay. I have a very good relationship with these two men and I love them dearly.

Well in this dream they asked me to leave my husband and become the third partner and I said yes. There was much more to the dream and but I can't say what!! So what do you think, do I get a toaster or just toast!

I am going to have to call them today and let them know about it! Remembering it made my day.

Anyway I am happy the weekend is almost here and I know you'll love your camera. Can we be the guinea pigs and get some more photos of you? :7 :bounce: :hi: :loveya: :hug:

[Clintmax]

91. Good Morning, Miss Ohio!

:hi::hug:
Funny dream! :rofl: I say you get both the toaster and the toast! :rofl: I've already decided that my DU crew is going to be the guinea pigs with new photos of me, so stay tuned for THAT! :bounce: I'm also going to take lots of Tallahassee, which you'll get to see as well!

85. Morning Clint

Yes, I blame the mere idea that you and Greekspeak would even consider getting married to be the reason why I haven't gotten married yet. Plus, a song by George Michael AND Elton John... Just that Homersexual Agenda pushin' alone is going to set my potential back 4 years. At least. :)

But other than that, how the heck are things going?

[Clintmax]

94. Good Morning, Bill!

:hi:
Yes, our Hommasexual agenda is working! :rofl: Things are going fine, Man! How the heck are YOU?

[Wetzelbill]

104. I was always curious about

the vaunted Librul and Homersexual monoliths that all of the Crazy Right seem to be so frightened about. I mean seriously, if Liberals controlled everything, and the Homosexual Agenda is so strong, then how the hell did we end up with this President, this Congress and this Supreme Court? :)

Things are going along. Bit of a sleepless night. I really don't have anything to do right now, so I'm out of whack with my sleeping schedule. I need to get back in the groove again soon. Probably here in the next day or so. Been doing a solid amount of writing lately. I need to sit down and bust out my serious stuff though. Just have to buckle down and do it. :)

I have a thread that made the greatest page this morning. Here it is if you want to check it out. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x1378467

[Clintmax]

118. Those are the questions to ask, Man!

"....how the hell did we end up with this President, this Congress and this Supreme Court?" I've been asking the same questions for a while too!

Sleeping patterns can get screwed up pretty easily. The best thing for them is to go to bed every single night at the same time and get up the next morning at the same time.

[Wetzelbill]

133. aahh yes

easier said than done. :)

I find I can only sleep properly when I have a pretty strict schedule I have to follow. Other than that I am all over the map.

92. Morning Clint! Morning All!

What lively conversation here in your morning thread. I'm just upset that our politicos are wasting so much time and energy on such nonsense. Most of the time I'm so ashamed of this administration I just want to cry.

Oh that note, you are of strong character by waiting to purchase your camera. I don't make decisions like that lightly, but when I do, I just want to act upon them right away. I commend your reserve.

[Clintmax]

99. Good Morning, Miss SimplyF!

:hi::hug:
It HAS been lively in here today! I'm glad you're here now! The whole bill thing was a ploy and everyone knows it. Too bad they had to spend so much time and energy like that.

I'm usually the same way...once I decide to get something, I just go do it...this time though, I'll have lots more money for more accessories for it if I wait until Friday!

[Callalily]

111. Very commendable

Then you've got the whole weekend to figure out all the bells and whistles. I swear they make each model slightly different with slightly different features to FORCE us to real those manuals. I've only scratched the surface as to functions and features on the digi that I have at work.

Btw - this is my 2,000th post, and no offense to you, but I'm dedicating it to Politically_Wrong who seems to only lurk around lately. Maybe this will get him to pop in once in a while.

[Clintmax]

121. Well congratulations on 2,000, Miss Simply!

:bounce::party::bounce::party:
No offence taken, my dear! :hug:

[Callalily]

135. Thanks!

Hey and what's going on with your Good Morning Crew threads! They all seem to be popping up. You'd think it was April 1st.

[Clintmax]

153. LOL! Oh, Random decided to revive all of them...

So he went and kicked them all! :rofl: It's a mess, I know.

[Callalily]

157. That boy is soooo funny!

Clever and smart too. I always enjoy his posts.

I'm about to fill up my travel mug and head out of here. Have a great day!

[Clintmax]

162. You too, my dear!

I'll see you in the morning! :hi:

[Minnesota Libra]

102. Good Thursday Morning to one and all, hope everyone is.............

...getting ready for the weekend that is fast approaching.:bounce:

I switched over to Qwest recently for my phone service and answered all their questions including a message phone that I could be reached at other than my home phone. Very nice neighbors allowed me to give out their phone number with the agreement that it would be a message phone only in case I couldn't be reached at home. Great!! Not so great!!:spank: Yesterday I got three calls from Qwest - at my neighbors house - and NOT ONCE did my phone ring with someone from Qwest at the other end. My neighbors dealt with the first two calls by suggesting the caller try my home because they knew I was home.:banghead: The third time they came and got me to deal with the issue.:grr: Can you even begin to imagine the riot act I read them after telling the caller off and then coming home and calling "customer service"??:banghead: Believe, they will NEVER make that mistake with me again.:grr:

Let's hope the people are a little smarter that you all deal with.:shrug:

[Clintmax]

112. Good Morning, Minnesota!

:hi:
It's amazing how stupid some companies are! I hope they got their records fixed while you were on the phone with them! We have our share of stupid people at our store too, so you're not alone.

[Mutley]

117. Mornin'!

Boy am I still tired. :boring:


:D

[Clintmax]

126. Good Morning, Miss Mutley!

:hi::hug:
I'm sorry. Did you not get much sleep last night?

[Mutley]

129. 'Bout five hours.

Rogue needed to be given her breakfast, though. She thinks she'll starve to death.

[Clintmax]

132. Between 5 and 6 is what I get a night.

But some people need more than that. Are you going back to bed for a while or are you up for the day?

[Mutley]

138. Oy, five and six every day.

:o

I can survive on that for some time, but I much prefer 7 or 8. :D

I'm considering going back to bed for a couple hours. Yes, I probably will.

[Clintmax]

144. Well have a good rest, my dear!

I'm off to get ready for work now! I'm glad you came in and said Good Morning before I left! :hug:

[Mutley]

145. Me too.

Have a good day, Clint. :hug:

[tjwmason]

130. Good morning Mutley.

:hi:

Good to see you - I'm sure you'd look very peaceful if you went back to sleep.

:hug:

[Mutley]

134. Good Morning, TJ.

:hug: :hi:

It's great to see you. How are you doing?

I'm sure I'd feel very peaceful if I went back to sleep. :D

[tjwmason]

166. I'm good here thanks.

The only small blot is that I'm in an office and it's a gorgeously beautiful day.

But basically I'm all jolly here.

How are you?

[Mutley]

180. I'm good, other than sleepy.

Which I've cured by going back to sleep.

I was called for an editing position, and had a phone interview. I'm hoping the hiring manager will be calling me soon for an in person interview.

[billyskank]

[Clintmax]

164. Good Morning, Cannikin!
