Good morning everybody!

Ice how is FIL?

Still no AZ?

edit: We have been watching 5 shrimp boats go out the ICW every morning and return every evening. I suppose the catch goes to Little River. SCDNR opened the shrimp season early this year due to the warm weather.

edit2: I ported my home phone number to magic jack. I cut the cord!

Good morning Joyner!
He is doing ok, he had his last appointment with the retina specialist on Friday and is cleared to go back to his regular eye doctor for the lens replacement(when his eye finishes healing in 2 to 3 weeks)

Let me know how it works out, I've often wondered.

Mornin', folks.

morning.

Actually Stanley likes to crawl on to my lap when I am sitting in my favorite chair. Of course I am 6'6" and weigh 230 lbs. so it isn't too bad. He would crush my wife! Stanley also sleeps in our bed at night, on my wife's side of course. I guess he is a little spoiled maybe. But he is so sweet! We are working to keep Bella a little less pampered.

One of our DJ's died and there have been a ton of old tape and new show in his memory.

I log on and there is a 20 second commercial before the stream starts. It is for some multi day concert. It has camping sites, hotels and condos for rent.

Hippies have gone soft!

No D'name, hippies have gotten old. Woodstock was 44 years ago, after all.

My parents have a husky/malamute resque that I hold in my lap sometimes, but she can't weigh more than 40lbs. She would sleepp in my parents bed but she sheads so much that my mom can't sleep. She does of corse have a nice bed next to theirs.

Tablet + asleep=typos and poor spelling.

Afternoon AZ, glad to see you!

magicJack says it will take a week to 10 days to be effective. We never use the land line except to get messages. I set up a new gmail account and forwarded the magicjack messages through gmail filters to hubby, daughter and me. Cost for magicJack is $29/year and to port a number is an extra $20/year. If fit works, I will be paying less than 1 months phone bill for a year of magicJack and porting.

Afternoon, folks.

I wonder if anyone has the woodstock stuff? I remember Gary Stevens interviewing the bands as they came back to the city.
Or maybe it was the talk show that started at 11pm.
None of the bands like it. It was wet and muddy.

I remember Jefferson Airplane being interviewed.

I was 15 then. My dad was in the hospital and my mom made me go every day. The old ladies in the solarium would watch woodstock on the TV and turn to me and say "You wouldn't want to be there, would you? "
No, I would rather spend every day in the hospital solarium. ugh.

Although I was too young. No boyfriend. No drugs yet.
I met one kid who went a few years later. She didn't like it, it was wet and muddy. Her dad was there as security. He sent her home. I still shocked a ex cop would even consider bringing his 15 year old daughter.

Hi Gman, we were worried about you! Hi to everyone else, too. Looks like we are going to have downpours again this afternoon.

FenStar and Josephus ignored questions from me recently, but I figured they had other fish to fry. Gman, on the other hand, I think will reply when the timing is good! BTW, I still don't exactly know what the definition of "it is so money" means. Tried to look it up, but it apparently has several definitions. I wish I spoke the latest language - but then again, I am older than dirt.

Thought I did; thought I canceled the post.

I know dirt; you're not older than it!

ah, well, at least I amused myself. I have no idea what it means. I just used the context of your description of it to reply in a similar vein. Since I couldn't really reply without revealing my ignorance, I kept quiet.

Hi all. Took granddaughter #3 shopping and to lunch.

Klozit & Joe, I looked it up in the Urban Dictionary and I still couldn't figure it out.

I took it to mean something similar to 'that is so true'...but with a bit of sarcastically added in.

Or maybe it is a reference to That's So Raven, a kids tv show. Dunno.

My 16 yr old dotter doesn't know- might not be that popular.

It is more likely that I simply didn't see your question.

yes. I belive Iwas distracted from replying to this post because I was having problems with my tablet.

Ah, phony excuse!! BTW, I had a cat that color, but his eyes were the yellow of the other object. I do love your art. You are sooo talented. Do you earn your living as an artist? EIDT - just saw a reference to your 16-year old daughter? I thought you were about 20.

Not to worry - did not mean to poke at you, just an observation that you young guys have more to do than to answer us old broads - and I am the oldest here on Woot, I do believe.

I can remember 20. for now. ;^) The cat is highly photogenic. most of them are, but he's really a beauty.


I haven't pursued making a living with art- I made and sold furniture briefly many years ago, but there was no money in it then. I'd dearly like to see this shirt print, though. That'd be 4 for me, not bad for a not pro designer.

All these years on Woot sites and I had never visited shirts! I am having a lovely time over there!

So you are a govt. agronomist! Hope I spelled it correctly.

just to alert you, on occasion it can get pretty nasty over there. some of the least enjoyable commenters have mostly stopped commenting, but not all the time, and not all of them. there can also be sort of left-handed compliments that frustrate. overall, people are friendly and helpful, and some are quite friendly, and very helpful.

Thanks for the head's up; however, I would not comment or reply there. I would be in way over my head - and I am 5'10"
