OMG, i laughed so hard at this site, I cried.

Time for the afternoon laugh.
Sony Pictures Studios announced today that the next James Bond script is being written, using a storyline based on the General Petraeus scandal. Working title for the film: "PantsFall"...
You may now return to your regularly scheduled Eatocracy...
OK, folks I have a question for you. Christmas commercials started right around Halloween, Christmas krap showed up in stores right next to the Halloween candy...SO when do you put up your Christmas Tree??
I'm wanting to get a head start and put it up this weekend, but I have always waited for Thanksgiving to pass...
I gave up on a real tree when we got Odie and he decided it was his own personal tree house...
No tree in the house for the same reason. Felines don't understand the whole Christmas tree concept.
Yeah, they do. It's meant for climbing, knocking down, and batting ornaments off. Not to mention the tinsel, tasty stuff.
Nothing is more funny and horrifying than seeing the cat dragging a turn a foot behind him by a strand of tinsel he couldn't quite crap out.
*turd, not turn
Ewww, but hilarious!
I wait until after December 1, and put everything away by January 2.
Sorry, meant that for Jb. Need another cup of coffee!
Truth- I agree...Odie would drink all the water for the tree, lay down under the tree then push all the presents away.
HarleyG – I put it all away on January 1st, never fail. :)
When the oldest furry was about two years old, I put up the tree as usual. I was upstairs working, and heard a funny noise, came down and found that she was untrimming the tree, one glass bulb at a time. She would take one off, carry it in her mouth to the kitchen tile floor, and roll it around cause she liked the noise. Never broke one!! From that year on, if I do a tree on the floor it is nekkid.
My friend just got hers up today, they like having it in time for turkey day. I'm doing good if I have it up in time for Christmas ! IMO, put it up when ya have time...lol!
Menard's, which is based out of Eau Claire here (and owned by father of Paul Menard, Nascar driver – whom I've both met) had Christmas stuff out on Labor day Weekend. I went to pick up stuff for the lawn in late summer and there in all it's glory is the Christmas section.
I couldn't believe it. August had just ended.
PAGING RICHARD HEAD! Might someone know how to contact? Our travel reporter wants to talk to him for a story she's writing.
Go Team Flamenons!
I just dropped him an email letting him know you're looking for him.
I sent an email Sunday and haven't heard from me yet...he just said he's been running busy busy. Santa's Elf is being run ragged!
*him* not *me* I need to go back to bed.
Good morning...
I can haz reboot of week, plz?
My two best friends (who are also married to each other), have lost their jobs (one today, one tomorrow). Another friend's mom passed away this morning.
And my apartment had a lovely foreclosure summons taped to the door after I left for work.
Very sorry to hear that, (((((HUGS))))) heading your way!!!
Holy crap! You and your friends are having a bad week! Sorry to hear that. Sympathies for your friend that lost their Mom, too. May the week get better for you, and may your friends find good jobs right away. Hang in there!
I am so sorry for all of what you are going through. You have our support!
(sighing) I'm very sorry.
I just saw a piece on the newly invented "baby mop", its hilarious, look it up!!!
VERY cute!

Since I was denied elsewhere posting this....
I figured someone would pick up on that comment.
Yeah, Kat and Co frown on posting videos in threads outside the Kaffeeklatsch.
Rings of 1984.
Ever get your Lunchtime Poll you were promised?
No. There have been polls, but not one named Lunchtime.
I decided to stop bother them about it. I got hammered with speech about how they were trying to make the content around here more meaningful, so then I felt bad.
I did one that was *tagged* lunchtime poll, just not NAMED lunchtime poll. Because I love you.
Ah, yes. Deer hunting season.
The time of year where all the ladies' men are out in the woods and the chicks are all out on the town.
>=)
Yes, out on the town after the craft sales. That's hard work & is deserving of a cold 1...or 3...or...well you know!
Good morning folks! It is 28 degrees right now, with a high of 45. I have woods in the back of my property. As soon as the sun came up, I could hear gun shots for about 5 minutes. The neighbors get their deer, and it is quiet the rest of gun season. It doesn't take long, because the woods are just full of deer. I have 10 acres, and can see them most nights when they come up into my pastures to graze. I lost my last horse in June, so we've been pulling the fence line down. Now, they come up closer to the house. Got to say, there are some pretty big deer back there. They probably know they are safe on my property. I only hunt with a camera. @mt- I love the craft shows, too. Tis the season! Have a great day all!
Ya like craft sales...Delta Plex in GR is having Shipshewana on the Road Sat & Sun...yeah, I'm going!
Check your mail, new shirt on the way to you.
How did you know I needed a new shirt made of whipped cream? You're so though-y.
Enjoy it. Its handmade.
Sooooooo you whipped your own cream? Why am I not surprised?
Good morning, friends. Chilly and sunny here. MT, I know what you mean, I was woken Sunday morning at dawn with the sounds of guns going off. Being from a hunting family I wasn't too surprised, though. Enjoy the craft fairs.
Alee, have you been naughty again? Biddle, keep your mind out of the gutter, maybe she just likes reality tv. :-)
Hoping today will be calm, every day since Monday has been a challenge, and tomorrow will be as well. Wish us luck, please, we need all we can get.
Lets be honest, that is not a reality TV glow. Maybe she got engaged or won the lottery or found out her boss who she hates just quit. Maybe she hung out with WIT at 4:20. It could be a plethora of things, but there is soothing about that grim you can't deny.
I'd hit it.
That's what I thought on Tuesday.
Didn't think it was that notty I posted a "recipe" for bourbon cake. Guess the modbotz ate it. :( BTW, it's chilly here, too, with a high of 77. Gonna poke holes in my shirt for sure. ;)
Thanks, Mary, I know I will. :)
Coffee Lady above seems to have that glow. Wonder what she did last night?
Morning all!
Yeah. I kind of thought she looked pregnant.
Already.
Good am! JBJ, Mobile off, ph works fine...thank you! Today is opening day for gun season (poor deer) & you know what that means, arts & crafts fairs begin this Sat...WOO-HOO! Let the shopping begin...lol!
Good to know it worked! We are heading to state line Nevada next Wednesday to a casino for Thanksgiving...then there is an Outlet Mall next door for Black Friday madness! I am doing Christmas Light this year, so should be done with all the shopping by next weekend...
Oh hey! I overlooked your comment earlier, sorry 'bout that. Will you be near Vegas? I went to an outlet mall in Birch Run MI not too long ago & did a little Christmas shopping...such good deals! Right across the street was a resturant called Tony's...featured on dives, diners show. they had theae BLT's that came with a lb of bacon! Not far from there (6 miles maybe) is this huge Christmas store in Frankenmurh, called Bronner's...this place is decorated yr round. It's a football field & a 1/2 long. My sis & I spent hrs in there, unreal! Gee, talk about babbling, all that over an outlet mall...lol! Have a great time while you're gone!
Why moderation? What did I miss?
