Ok gang, I am out for the day. Talk to you all eitehr late tonight or early tomorrow. Enjoy your evening!
Life called but I am back in the plush co-ed cave for some witty repartee.
I wanna play with someone's rapier wit........
Go ahead darlin' I'll play.
Oh, Goody! Now my mind went blank......dang!
I am nefarious in an insouciant way.
You sound like my cat...in both qualities...
I left out one of the ice cream flavors from last summer's ice cream feast. Maple with Candied Bacon. That one was very good.
whoohoo! nothing like a fire drill in 20' weather to wake a person up from that midafternoon slump!
to be fair.. it wasnt actually a drill....
HuH? Did they catch me smoking in the Boy's Room? It' too damn cold outside. My Bad!
ahHA! i'll be sure to include your admission in the report i'm currently writing up as one of my EC duties. :)
I promise it wasn't me! I'm snacking on peanut M&M's not popcorn.
That is funny, wonder how many guys deploy these tactics? Boys, please share your stories....
*sigh* Oh V-Day...you fall so close to my boyfriends birthday that it's unfair.
Same thing with my husband's birthday...but mine is right next to Christmas so he has it worse.
Ouch! that IS pretty bad. Mine is always sure to point out it is 2 seperate gift occasions with 2 seperate gifts. lol.
LOL – reminds me of my bestest buddy, she almost lit her house (and nearby forest) on fire when she was first married in NC...hubs hasn't let her near the grill for 25 yrs now...
Given my propensity to burn things, perhaps a cedar sided house was not the best choice for us to make. Every year we go to the Indiana State Fair and every time we pass a sign reminding people not to smoke in the livestock barns, hubs "lovingly" reminds me not to touch anything either just in case.
Reading the comments on the lunchtime poll made me think of something that I heard a guy do once. It's a little off topic so I decided to bring it over here.
Some guy started talking to me in a bar and was bragging about all the hot snobby chicks he had nailed. I asked him what his secret was and he said he would write down his number on the back of an atm receipt. The funny thing was that he would find someone else's atm receipt that had a really big balance. He always seemed to get a call the next day....
That made me laugh.....
LOL! that reminds me of a friend of mine lending out his Beemer to his friends for just such a reason.
I haven't, but we will be travelling that day back from Phoenix, and after 20 yrs married (and it is our Anniversary), it sadly is no longer a big affair... That said, try shrimp cocktail. If you face the shrimp together, tails touching, they are a little heart! :)
Has anyone started planning their Valentine's Day menu (assuming you are cooking and not going out)?
Sorry,I will be preparing for a much Bigger Day-Feb 22! National CHERRY PIE DAY! PARTY at MY House!
And the afternoon slump has set in....
Want some Peanut M&M's?
Yes, please!!
It's o.k. take the bag. I've got another one in the truck!
Farewell for the day chums. Let me know tomorrow if I've missed anything exciting.
Yes, caesar or italian dressing work well on chickens as well as a pork tenderloin, then grilled is best. Get a fire extinguisher and give it a go yourself!!
Normally I would just do it myself but our grill is on our wood deck right next to our cedar sided house. That, my friend, is a recipe for disaster. Plus I'd probably end up singeing my eyebrows and that is just not a good look.
we have one of those revolving restaurants here in KC...its atop a hotel adjacent to Crown Center. ahhh Prom Night. grilled swordfish during sunset facing west in the round restaurant. absolutely gorgeous...and nicely timed by the guy i went with. :)
Then he got the bill,had a major heart attack and you had to take a taxi home. Ahhh,Prom night-The memories!
ACtually... oh wait. this is a PG blog... ;o)
It's o.k. I can cover WD's eyes so she can't see. Tell all!
Don't go to the Bathroom-it will take you one hour to find your table as the restaurant revolves around. YOU ARE ON BROTHER! STEELERS FOR THE WIN!
OK, my SBW pick...Pittsburg. I actually watched both games yesterday (shocker) and I couldn't get over how much energy/determination and strengh that team had. Now what's for lunch??
Why Texas Chili of course! In regards to your sb Pick,I must allow my Brother,SirB first choice on this years selection. I am 0-2! Hangs head in despair!
From lunch at the top of the Space Needle, I have to go with the Packers!
i saw earlier today that Jack LaLanne passed over the weekend. does anyone have one of his juicers? i've often thought of getting a juicer just to see if i would like it. i do like juice, but hate paying the inflated price for it. it's an investment, so i thought i'd ck in with you all to see if there's anyone out there with applicable juicer experience. what say you? yay/nay?
if you are willing to make the investment, and I do mean investment, go for a Vitamix. Those things are AMAZING! One of my friends has it and I use it/lust over it whenever I go to her place.
I bought one (a breville...not too fancy but it does the trick) and love it! There is nothing like fresh apple or orange juice in the morning and carrot juice in the evening. Yuummmmmyyyy!!!!! The only downside is cleaning the filter that the juice passes through after each juicing. I found that a (new) toothbrush works very well.
great, thanks for the input! i'll go check them out! carrot juice is the BOMB for after a workout!
this should get our brains a'whirring! :) my Q of the day is: what would you do if we DO get one?
Sometime this year, we taxpayers will again receive another 'Economic Stimulus' payment.
This is indeed a very exciting program, and I'll explain it by using a Q & A format:
Q. What is an 'Economic Stimulus' payment ?
A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.
Q.. Where will the government get this money ?
A. From taxpayers.
Q. So the government is giving me back my own money ?
A. Only a smidgen of it.
Q. What is the purpose of this payment ?
A. The plan is for you to use the money to purchase a high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.
Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China ?
A. Shut up.
Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the U.S. economy by spending your stimulus check wisely:
* If you spend the stimulus money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China or Sri Lanka .
* If you spend it on gasoline, your money will go to the Arabs.
* If you purchase a computer, it will go to India , Taiwan or China ..
* If you purchase fruit and vegetables, it will go to Mexico , Honduras and Guatemala ..
* If you buy an efficient car, it will go to Japan or Korea .
* If you purchase useless stuff, it will go to Taiwan .
* If you pay your credit cards off, or buy stock, it will go to management bonuses and they will hide it offshore.
Instead, keep the money in America by:
1) Spending it at yard sales, or
2) Going to ball games, or
3) Spending it on prostitutes, or
4) Beer or
5) Tattoos.
(These are the only American businesses still operating in the U.S. )
Conclusion:
Go to a ball game with a tattooed prostitute that you met at a yard sale and drink beer all day !
No need to thank me, I'm just glad I could be of help.
I think I would buy real estate (a VERY modest "ranchette") and a horse.
point is these are all-American...
LOL! I'll see you at the game.
No wonder The KC Chiefs can't win a ballgame! Goes for the Royals too! Just sayin'!
too true!! they're too busy staring up into the stands! :)
Finally an excuse to do what i've always dreamt of.
Temporary check in here. Wholeheartedly agree on one, nice, big, comfy cave we can all share, keeping the ever obsequious Patricks and the hot tub and all the other civilized amenities. No competitions allowed anymore.
No Shiuaa was nearly assassinated Friday but I rescued him. See above for his new backyard dining accommodations. He is our totem and mascot for however long everyone likes him to be around.
How's that?
I set of a hose up outside so it runs along a little trough and gave hie a couple of crayfish. He washed them diligently before dining as in the Way of Raccoons.
You must share your chili recipe, please...my brats were very good btw. Simmered in beer, onions, and a bit of butter, then on the grill for a suntan, with horseradish mustard. Even hubs approved! :)
Good Girl-I'm Proud of Ya! I will need YOUR NFL expertise on choosing an SBW winner this year. #2and 3 of your spice list are included in MY Secret chili recipe!
YUM!!!! I LOVE brats!! of course, i, being of some German descent, require copious amounts of kraut and mustard on mine! :)
I'm a culinary bumpkin so having food of any kind simmered in beer is a new one to me... Hafta try it though. Does it matter what kind of beer?
I'm sure a nice lager or something would be nice to put with the brats, but all we had was Coors Light, and it worked great. The onions stewed in the beer and we put those on the brats at the end and had really nice flavors.
i use Busch beer... it's kinda salty so i think that helps it a bit for flavor.
Morning still here. 5 spices:
1. Thyme (preferably fresh)
2. Cumin
3. Garlic
4. Rosemary
5. Oregano
Sorry your Jets ran out of fuel RH.
There was an emergency over DC during half time they had to take care of. Sigh! Like MY Beloved Texas Rangers-Maybe this Year?
Afternoon all! I'm devouring a delicious chicken caesar wrap and next up is a chocolate chip cookie. Has anyone ever tried marinating chicken in a caesar vinagrette dressing? I'm thinking about trying that and either grilling or searing the chicken. I'll let you know how that works out. For those who may be concerned about my past issues with flammable material, I will let hubs do the grilling.
i have done that as a matter of fact! i love chicken marinated in caesar dressing.. in fact our cafe here at work makes it available twice a week. :) i've had it both in reg caesar and a caesar vinagrette...they're both delish...altho i think the vinagrette allows for more flavor as the vinegar content is higher.
A little late getting to the party this morning. Thanks for the plethora of beverages and munchies! Another day of sun and 60 degree weather this morning, here on the coast!
Still GOT your testicles?
Yeah, they won so it's all good. She and her dad had some good heartburn going during the game.
What's up? I must say MY Texas Chili was excellent as usual. It's been a bathroom three tripper so far. Is that TMI?
Once it turns into a three-roller let me know so I can then be impressed.
I am very impressed with the NGF. She buys in bulk Huh?
Morning/Afternoon everyone! Hope everyone is having a great day :)
5 spices:
garlic
cinnamon
chicken bouillion
sage
my own special meat rub
mmmm. Andy Richter's article has made me crave some french toast. so Patrick 2.0 is now whipping up a batch to be served in the communal lounge if you wish to join me. Maple Syrup, powdered sugar, and fresh fruit are the choice of toppings.
Count me in. I'll bring some Orange Marmalade.
It seems somewhat sad that we are now separated into two "caves" and a communal area.
I agree. Chumarinos, take down this wall! We can still keep the hot tub and the Patrick's, right?
Truth be told, (no pun), but I agree. Even more sad is how quickly it evolved into an "Our cave is better than your cave" thing. That is one reason I sort of bowed out of that discussion last week. Part of what makes Klatch great is bringing together people of vastly different backgrounds. Let's not fall into traps that are stereotypes folks.
I would still like to keep separate bathrooms.
My vote is for one cafe once more. I don't see why we couldn't keep the patricks, though, as long as they aren't the type to brag about salsa in Spain too often.
just cuz there's been some redecorating going on doesnt mean there's walls up! well.. there are in the restroom, but that's just understood. i was merely indicating that the food was in the 'lounge' area away from the hot tub. french toast and hot tubs just dont go together... i picture our hangout as one giant room with different themes in each corner... in one corner resides the raccoon, another the hot tub, another holds Patrick 2.0 and his kitchen, another the restrooms (with walls) and in the center the lounge with giant foofy couches and ottomans. :)
Agreed on the seperate bathrooms. I used to go out with a girl who attended Vassar College, which had unisex bathrooms. A whole new type of education there.
Wasn't the racoon euthanized?
I feel so lost sometimes...
Have a small 5@5 idea:
What do you think are the 5 most basic and essential spices your kitchen needs?
Not counting salt and pepper.
Mine are:
Garlic
Oregano
Basil
Dill
Cinnamon
There are more of course but this is the essential first 5.
My 5 spices:
Garlic
Oregano
Basil
Cinnamon
Vanilla
my top 5:
1. Garlic
2. Curry
3. Cinnamon
4. Italian Spices (William Sonoma Mix or Pampered Chef)
5. Old Bay (essential for the OH to function but I can't stand it)
for a Monday, this day sure is crawling by!! i've only been at work for two hours, and i'm already waiting for the closing bell.
i know this is long, but it's funny...especially if you've ever gone hunting in the cold winter weather. makes you appreciate your tree stand so much more.
I had this idea that I could rope a deer, put it in a stall, feed it up on corn for a couple of weeks, then kill it and eat it. The first step in this adventure was getting a deer. I figured that, since they congregate at my cattle feeder and do not seem to have much fear of me when we are there (a bold one will sometimes come right up and sniff at the bags of feed while I am in the back of the truck not 4 feet away), it should not be difficult to rope one, get up to it and toss a bag over its head (to calm it down) then hog tie it and transport it home.
I filled the cattle feeder then hid down at the end with my rope. The cattle, having seen the roping thing before, stayed well back. They were not having any of it. After about 20 minutes, my deer showed up– 3 of them. I picked out a likely looking one, stepped out from the end of the feeder, and threw my rope. The deer just stood there and stared at me. I wrapped the rope around my waist and twisted the end so I would have a good hold..
The deer still just stood and stared at me, but you could tell it was mildly concerned about the whole rope situation. I took a step towards it, it took a step away. I put a little tension on the rope .., and then received an education. The first thing that I learned is that, while a deer may just stand there looking at you funny while you rope it, they are spurred to action when you start pulling on that rope.
That deer EXPLODED. The second thing I learned is that pound for pound, a deer is a LOT stronger than a cow or a colt. A cow or a colt in that weight range I could fight down with a rope and with some dignity. A deer– no Chance. That thing ran and bucked and twisted and pulled. There was no controlling it and certainly no getting close to it. As it jerked me off my feet and started dragging me across the ground, it occurred to me that having a deer on a rope was not nearly as good an idea as I had originally imagined.. The only upside is that they do not have as much stamina as many other animals.
A brief 10 minutes later, it was tired and not nearly as quick to jerk me off my feet and drag me when I managed to get up. It took me a few minutes to realize this, since I was mostly blinded by the blood flowing out of the big gash in my head. At that point, I had lost my taste for corn-fed venison. I just wanted to get that devil creature off the end of that rope.
I figured if I just let it go with the rope hanging around its neck, it would likely die slow and painfully somewhere. At the time, there was no love at all between me and that deer. At that moment, I hated the thing, and I would venture a guess that the feeling was mutual. Despite the gash in my head and the several large knots where I had cleverly arrested the deer's momentum by bracing my head against various large rocks as it dragged me across the ground, I could still think clearly enough to recognize that there was a small chance that I shared some tiny amount of responsibility for the situation we were in. I didn't want the deer to have to suffer a slow death, so I managed to get it lined back up in between my truck and the feeder – a little trap I had set before hand...kind of like a squeeze chute. I got it to back in there and I started moving up so I could get my rope back.
Did you know that deer bite?
They do! I never in a million years would have thought that a deer would bite somebody, so I was very surprised when ..... I reached up there to grab that rope and the deer grabbed hold of my wrist. Now, when a deer bites you, it is not like being bit by a horse where they just bite you and slide off to then let go. A deer bites you and shakes its head–almost like a pit bull. They bite HARD and it hurts.
The proper thing to do when a deer bites you is probably to freeze and draw back slowly. I tried screaming and shaking instead. My method was ineffective.
It seems like the deer was biting and shaking for several minutes, but it was likely only several seconds. I, being smarter than a deer (though you may be questioning that claim by now), tricked it. While I kept it busy tearing the tendons out of my right arm, I reached up with my left hand and pulled that rope loose.
That was when I got my final lesson in deer behavior for the day.
Deer will strike at you with their front feet. They rear right up on their back feet and strike right about head and shoulder level, and their hooves are surprisingly sharp... I learned a long time ago that, when an animal -like a horse –strikes at you with their hooves and you can't get away easily, the best thing to do is try to make a loud noise and make an aggressive move towards the animal. This will usually cause them to back down a bit so you can escape.
This was not a horse. This was a deer, so obviously, such trickery would not work. In the course of a millisecond, I devised a different strategy. I screamed like a woman and tried to turn and run. The reason I had always been told NOT to try to turn and run from a horse that paws at you is that there is a good chance that it will hit you in the back of the head. Deer may not be so different from horses after all, besides being twice as strong and 3 times as evil, because the second I turned to run, it hit me right in the back of the head and knocked me down.
Now, when a deer paws at you and knocks you down, it does not immediately leave. I suspect it does not recognize that the danger has passed. What they do instead is paw your back and jump up and down on you while you are laying there crying like a little girl and covering your head.
I finally managed to crawl under the truck and the deer went away. So now I know why when people go deer hunting they bring a rifle with a scope......to sort of even the odds!!
Clarifies what the term UN domesticated really means.
no doubt!
You're pulling out cyber legs, right?
*GRIN* my mom forwarded this to me... supposedly it's written by a farmer somewhere in the midwest. he actually tried this...and noted the results.
I can't believe that they censor l m g d a o. Anyway hilarious story.
Sorry Michele ... too much? :)
It's the visual..........
SCT ..."my nippels could cut glass. "

This trips me out.

oh how neat!!! my dogs like to bark at the deer...i always wonder what would happen if they got close enough to play. my girl loves to run with the horses...
beautiful.
Morning all! I heard a funny on the weather channel this morning...fill in the blank: "It's so cold that ______" Politicians have their hands in their own pockets for a change. LOL
"This day is as cold as a mother in law's kiss"...
"Peecicles. Need I say more?"
no
BTW (that's By the WAY) Shiuaa is resting comfortably in his crate in a warm corner of the Blond Cave.
I set of a hose up outside so it runs along a little trough and gave hie a couple of crayfish. He washed them diligently before dining as in the Way of Raccoons.
I spent a month in Mongolia some time ago teaching English at a orphaned children's home. For laughs, I ofter will check the weather there. This week, the HIGHS are going to be zero to five below all week with nighttime lows of 25-30 below.
Denver does not feel too bad in comparison...:)
Eeeww! I need a parka just to read about it!
It gets better...keep in mind tha the primary mode of living over there is the ger, which is basically a felt tent. Surprisingly warm, but still, at freakin thirty below, I have no idea how people do it.
A bikini salesman would starve to death.
That nefarious (WOD) Old Man Winter!
Now that IS COLD.
I must admit, my purely paphian feelings towards snow is simply nefarious in most everyone's minds!
Looked up new word "paphian." I feel (sort of) like that about the desert.
Most certainly is that nefarious, wendy. Actually more repellent, perhaps, than nefarious.
I love winter, but not quite like that.
Morning sunshines! What nefarious (WOD) deeds have you been up to while I was gone?
My queen, your suspect of us hurts. It really does.
I second that!
My suspicion is born of my deep affection for all of you...that and the fact that I know what devious little minds you all possess.
Devious? Devious? The world is out there just waiting for me to explore and experiment on. That's CREATIVE!
My name gave it away, didn't it?
I knew I should have gone with "Not-doing-anything-suspicious"!
g'day everyone! a toasty +12 here in KC today. games yesterday were good fun to watch! and i must say my predictions (amazingly!) came true...now we wait for Feb 6th.... dum dum dummmmmmmmmmmm. :) we got another 2" saturday nite of the fluffy white stuff...bringing my total yard accumulation to 14"!! WHOOHOOO!!!
Good morning! I devoutly respect those of you who can live in TWELVE degree weather!
i do like the wintertime... but i'd be lying if i didnt say that i was jonesing to get the little convertible out and throw the top down for a couple of days! i miss slamming through the gears and going for midnite drives... *sigh* mr Groundhog better be good to me!!!
My boy friend talks fondly about his time while in the Navy when he spent 13 months in Kodiak, Alaska. He has stories of having his eyelashes frozen together, and being cautioned about NOT breathing deeply when them temps got down in the minus double digits. And they had to keep truck engines idling all the time lest the oil freeze and ruin the engines.
How DO they get anything done there.....?
He's exaggerating. I'm from a town less than 100 miles from Kodiak. It's pretty mild there.
Sorry. Forgot to mention that this was when he was in Fairbanks. Apologies.

These are circulating on the internet. You might get them, too.
Perhaps, though my friends and I don't really do the email forwards. Only once in awhile will we find something and pass things along if it relates directly. (Usually techie humor.)
This one was fun. Like Jerv, I especially like ROFL... CGU. I may use that some time.
I do have to wonder how many people will get this, take this seriously, and start using these that way.
I guess those who use it will be a function of how many "older" folks "get" texting and do it frequently... Stay tuned....!

Love that one!
Howdy ho Chums from (yet again) annoyingly mild southern California. Predicted high around 80 with a wind chill making it seem like 78.......
thanks for the welcoming coffee....Perked me right up!
Morning. I wish I could do like that guy in a Billy Joel song, "Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast" and hang out with you. It is 22 degrees in VA.
Well, you'd be welcome as the flowers in May!
you must be in the warm part of the state...i'm jealous
Riverside county
Yup Richmond VA. What is the temp in your neck of the woods?
Apologies. I misunderstood.
I'm up in the DC area, it was 10 this morning and in theory will hit the mid-20s at some time today.
Having been born in Las Vegas and grown up In Phoenix I confess that those temps, to me, are like having to live on Pluto....
Good morning all.
-12F overnight. -9F now. Wind chill about -20F.
And if the storm starting tomorrow goes up along the coast, there's a potential for another dump of snow from a nor'easter, but it's too soon to get estimated snowfalls yet. *sigh* And no more vacation time left due to dental issues... so I can't just stay home and make a pot of soup and spiced cider.
Here's some cider for you, Mildred. Hopefully you won't get snowed in at work today.
Thanks- the snow isn't supposed to be starting until after midnight. The overnight low is higher than today's high. brrr
Morning chums. I'm mulling a big pot of spiced cider this morning. I'd say the temperatures call for something nice and warm. They probably will go nicely with the cinnamon rolls.
Truth, your words of the day have been decidedly evil lately. Very, very nice.
Have to say that a fine brewed coffee definitely wake my brains up! My Millionaire Mentor 2011
I believe my Psychic gave me nefarious information concerning the winners of yesterdays football games!
What's up dude? Your nefarious (WOD) Jets let us down yesterday. Anyway, should be a good superbowl game to watch.
I'll stick with some orange juice for now...
...Seems like I picked up something over the weekend that's pretty much got me down...
Sorry to hear. I swear by Zicam...the citrus lozenges kind....always seems to cut it in half at least...
Is something nefarious (WOD) afoot or did everyone just stay home from work today?
Maybe the games last night? I got in this morning and had to check the calendar to make sure it really was Monday...and not a holiday.
Ditto....It's strangely quiet.
Word of the day time!

Good morning! I have some Hazelnut Hot Chocolate and, as requested, some Cheesecake Cookie Bars. Enjoy!
*Hangs head in shame*
Good morning all!
Coffee is great today. Looking forward to a great day in the MHC. No snow on the horizon, which is always nice.
Pssst...I found a riding crop and a dog collar behind the recliner. Please remember to pick up after yourselves next time.
Sounds like my weekend! When I woke up to -7 on Saturday, I decided it was an inside weekend! Still don't have the house as clean as I would like...can't get the hubby to take down the Christmas lights...
I'd like to know where the mild winter predicted by the Farmer's Almanac went. If anyone finds it, I'd like them to please return it to the Midwest.
-7??? Suddenly +10 isn't so bad...
Here you go! Think I will make some cinnamon rolls as well. How was your weekend?
Not bad. Just the usual stuff: laundry, groceries, house cleaning. I stayed inside as much as possible, it was too cold to do much else.
Good morning! I will start the coffee. It's snowing again here, so I need all the warm caffeine that I can get...
Coffee sounds wonderful. Can you pass me a cup once it's ready? Thanks!
Oh boy, I'm the first one here! I'll just curl up in the recliner and watch the morning news.
