. . . he looks great . . . how could anyone throw him out!!!

Another heeeeelarryus piece of this tale. .. ....

From where did he come?

Was he modeling male wigs? Neckties?

For what reason was he disposed of? He no longer had the "look"?

I must uncover more information: exactly what other businesses are in this building .. . ..

Maybe Will has had him in his office all this time. Just as a friend, to bounce ideas off.....

[curlyfries]

Speaking of guys' names..........

In this school system I have heard of some.....er.........rather unique names.......

The pronunciations of two names in particular are strange enough....

Dee-OH-gee (sounds Hispanic)

Shi-THEED (Middle-eastern, maybe?)

If you haven't figured out already, they are spelled...

DOG

and...

Sh!thead

[Green12]

YAY Jess!!!!!!!!!!

DOG

and...

Sh!thead

I am rather partial to Russell Smythe for the head/bust thingy.......

[elye]

Dee-OH-gee

Shi-THEED

Well, one of those names could work . .. .....

All right. Will and I are heading out back for our nightly soak in the hot tub. I think I will bring out my new head, see if it will float around.. .. . . .

Any nosy neighboUrs will think I'm languishing in the suds with TWO gentlemen.... . ..

A real HO TUB......... .

[jerseyangel]

.....and you can use him as a floatation device!

Name suggestion--Phileas Phogg!! Ya gotta admit, it's pretty sillie

[DingoGirl]

Could prop him on one's treadmill .. . . rather like a coxswain, ordering one forward. . . . .

*snort*

I do love the word coxswain

From where did he come?

Was he modeling male wigs? Neckties?

For what reason was he disposed of? He no longer had the "look"?

Oh, the musing's of Em's Mad Mind

Um.......you know, he does have a rather odd, twisted look about his pose, note how hard his neck is straining rather backwards. Was he perhaps a whiplash victim? Suffered an untoward fate and was discarded?

oh yes, Em, you MUST get to the bottom of this. Please go, take him with you, and question EVERY SINGLE PERSON in Will's building

DOG

and...

Sh!thead

*snort*

I am rather partial to Russell Smythe for the head/bust thingy.......

I am in total agreement here. Just love the name Smythe, esp. now since I know how posh it is. Was thinking of using it (Smythe) as Weezee's last name on her phacebook page

.....

love this also. or - for this crowd - SILLEAS PHOGG

in other news..........

SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Must tell you of my complete irritation with some people going on marijuana cleanup trip this week (I am not going)

They wrote in their fool intolerances - one is gluten-intolerant, and one cannot eat soy. Several vegetarians (is is Santa Cruz area, after all )

Now, of COURSE you now that I TOTALLY know how to handle this but.......I looked at Shane and said.....I just can't IMAGINE, writing to an organization that prepares food en masse, going on my first trip with said organization, and expecting that they even KNOW WHAT IN HELL GLUTEN IS????????????? Shane and the other cooks had never HEARD of gluten until I came along.

and SOY? mygawd, there's soy in.......our pancake batter, the margarine, the salad dressings, all the condiments, the cereal, oatmeal, peanut butter, the cheese ravioli, probably even the hamburger patties from SAm's Club, the pre-made ready-to-bake cookies.......what am I missing? Sheesh, there's soy in EVERYTHING, right? She has to live on chicken breasts and cheese and veggies the whole weekend? ( I told Shane to call her)

So - these people just casually email that they can't eat these things, when there's a crowd of 40 to feed over three days................

so - I called the celiac and spoke to her myself - - told her she REALLY should bring enough food to cover herself in case she can't eat anything (I could not eat a single thing on the menu except eggs and cottage cheese, but she's also DAIRY-intolerant) and she'd be reimbursed.

the noive.

Um.......you know, he does have a rather odd, twisted look about his pose, note how hard his neck is straining rather backwards. Was he perhaps a whiplash victim? Suffered an untoward fate and was discarded?

I rather fancy that he is looking over his shoulder........a guilty conscience?.......a rogue of sorts?

What if bad luck has befallen the last owner......and all owners before........each one trying to rid themselves of the spell..........but, as always, he is found again...........and the curse continues......

Maybe he's the guy with the lighter.......Chet.........poor guy.......that's all that's left of him

Hey hey psillies!!

Ptaum be bizzy-busy working & unpacking & unpacking & "hmmm how 'bout couch THERE, recliner HERE . .. ..bah not so good" & re-arranging "HERE & HERE ....bah again" & which box had the certain powerstrip I want for the space heater & "crap those pans don't FIT here" (SOOOOO many more kitchen drawers/cabinets at last place AND pantry which I now do wifout) & "can/should I use this shelf HERE?" etc etc etc

I AM mostly keeping up (woohoo AFA!! <IIIIIIIIII wanna go to a football game!!!!!!!>) but trying to get all moved in is top priority.

P.S. Remember that time Gian-knit played drums at the Indy stop of the Bananarama Reunion Tour?

P.P.S

Just gonna say, this doesn't really work. Too much bulk in the tube.

HuhhhhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHH?????????

<someone ain't doin' it right>

Corner folded for lock-down?

Heard Ned's Atomic Dustbin again on the plane back .....kudos to whomever remembered them. :)

Gyah I should be taking data as we speak/type!!!!

[tom]

Aargh double . . .. .dunno if it's too many electronics or what but connectivity too too spotty & intermittent in the ASIC lab.

[bonus question!!! Who knows - w/out looking it up ya cheater - what ASIC means in the chip world?]

OK then . ...anyone know if there's a nice Urban Dictionary-type word for the forced immediate viewing of TIVO'd/DVR'd recordings when it's 100% full & nothing's just "eh" deleteable, but space MUST be made for recording shows that will air while out, say, at work?

I HAD to - HAD TO - watch 2 hrs worth today tho didn't really have time for it!!!!!!!!!

I feel only partly close to generating a suitable term for this phenomenon

[nikki-uk]

P.S. Remember that time Gian-knit played drums at the Indy stop of the Bananarama Reunion Tour?

Now that was a memorable night!

Dunno but me running shoes are Asics

What does it all mean??????????

[blueeyedmanda]

Hi Sillies-

its been busy and i haven't had a chance to check in. I went back to work yesterday and I am trying to catch up on everything that sat while I was at home last week. Its crazy! So anyway just checking in and hoping everyone is doing good!

[Darn210]

P.S. Remember that time Gian-knit played drums at the Indy stop of the Bananarama Reunion Tour?

They soooooooooo wanted me to join their tour . . . but, you know . . . already had me own committments.

[elye]

Morning, Psillies!

OMG, Nik. . . . . ...I have a pair of Asics runners meself. . . ....and neither of us are a part of the Chip World of which Ptaoughmghmnuss speaks. .. ... . ...

Or ARE we??

Incidentally, I believe this would be yet another terrific moniker for the Man-head.

ASIC.

Sounds rather Northern European . . .....Slavic or Russian . . .. ...must examine face and see if there are any signs of this heritage.

Hmmmm.... .. Leeeesa, you may be onto something... . ...a curse.... . .a Russian hex... .. .

He does have his head in a somewhat awkward position - - not so much looking over his shoulder as drawing back, perhaps to avoid a blow or acrid smell. . . ......

His strange, Mona-Lisa type smile must be a clue. Somewhat smirkish. . . . maybe a bit of a leer. . ..... .

So phunny. . . . Will put the Head on one of our dining room chairs, and every time I walk by it this morning I jump, adrenline surging. . . . . ...

Mornin sillies

A fond Veterans Day and Remembrance Day to all

Pataghumn--oh how I wish we lived closer together!! I love rearranging furniture, setting up kitchens, phiguring out how to "balance" a room, etc. We've owned 9 different houses to date with the same core group of furnishings, kitchen stuff, Mark's tatt, etc.

It's always a challenge to make it all jive with a different conphiguration, but I love it! Yep--I could hook you right up

Welcome home, Amanda. I trust all is going well wif yer dad's recovery? Take some time now to settle back in and breath a bit

On a nuther note--I had another dream that contained several sillies. I was moving again, it gets jumbled up after that, but this seems to be a reoccuring theme wif me as of late.

Ok--got nuthin else......pellet stove on the blink already They are sending someone out--possibly as soon as this afternoon. No way I'm turning on that damn oil firnace--it's the principle of the thing!

Funny. NPR just did a piece on lower gas prices and mentioned that the drop in price has not increased consumption. It's people like you who refuse to overuse our limited resources that are keeping the economy in the dumps. Do you really want to put 'saving money' ahead of 'oil company profits'? Think about it. 'm sure you'll come up with the right answer.

Damn right I do

I have that same exact neti pot.

yes, Patti, but have you been pouring scotch through yer nose with it?

[Mtndog]

Had to see Emily's man-head!!!!!!!!!! BWA HA HA HA!!! Reminds me of A Christmas Story- is he fragil-A? An international award? :lol:

You could name him Psven or Pstewie or Crack in honor of Janet (I have no brain today and am cracking meself up- pa-thetic!).

Hmm......how about Erique? Sounds francais........very suave.

Hi Amanda- How are things? Been thinking about you lots.

[blueeyedmanda]

I dont think I am ever going to catch up with everything I missed last week--here at work. I get something finished and then turn around and there is like a stack of 15 other things to get done....crazy times!

Hopefully my dad will get home tomorrow. It will be nice I know to have him home again

[jerseyangel]

yes, Patti, but have you been pouring scotch through yer nose with it?

I was horrified! If I simply use too much salt, or don't stir it enough so the salt completely disolves.....ouch!

[Mtndog]

Paddeigh's pouring scotch through her nose??????? :lol:

Perfect Man, Perfect Woman

Random joke:

There was a perfect man and a perfect woman. They met each other at a perfect party. They dated for two perfect years. They had the perfect wedding and the perfect honeymoon. They had two perfect children.

One day the perfect man and the perfect woman were driving in there perfect car, they saw an elf by the side of the road, being the perfect people they were they picked him up.

Well as the perfect man and the perfect woman were driving with the elf, somehow they got into an accident. Two people died and one lived.

Who died and who lived?

The perfect woman, because the perfect man and elves aren't real.
