ooops, double.....and very strange happenings on the board

[DingoGirl]

Forgot to mention it's Cyber Monday...anyone shopping on-line and finding any good deals????

Was going to say, the only salutation you forgot was Happy Cyber Monday

no shopping here......

ooops, double.....and very strange happenings on the board

what? what's happening??

*yawn*

so bored - and trying to write a grant - very hard - head exploding

[tom]

- THOSE are NOT BRICK coloUred!!!! . . . THOSE are Cinder Block coloUred!!!! . . .

Aaaargh so close!!! Didn't think crutch

I think brick-coloUred tips must be factory-equipped, and replacements aren't.

So . . . I'm calling a do-over and changing my guess!!! . . . Is it a cinder block???

Hi Judith!!!!!!

My 'moody' cat is a female, spayed AND has ALL her teeth and claws (read: dangerous!!!)

To be honest , she would be better suited to live in peace and quiet with some little old lady doting on her .....but THAT ain't happening!!!.....Too much noise and people aggravate her

The other cats are VERY wary of her!!

I'm a old lady. I can be doting and I have a BIG lap..........will you please trade cats with me?

chortling away to self whilst Shane is at a meeting -

(mad at self) Yes, the combination of the licorice scittie dogs and the potato chips is combustible

hope your explosion has occured while Shane was out of the office.

feel better sooz........what a combination of food i must say

Glad we got the 'rubber protection device' figured out

[tom]

You may be right . . . . perhaps you guys would have simultaneously guessed correctly at about question # 5, had I not claimed that they are brick-coloUred. Indeed, must be a Canadian thing, as all the ones I've seen through me life are brownish-red. Perhaps a Commonwealth phenomenon? Nik?

Sure there's all these newfangled grEy, black & brown tips NOW, but I recall a lifetime of brick-coloUred crutchtips too - why doesn't everyone?

:lol: no - and now have to spend the rest of my life pondering this

Sillies - the bomb builds and...there is Shane, and two other men sitting in here within mere feet of me

*gasp*

and one of the guys just read the above sentence (well, he already knew since I announce it to whomever comes in )

[nikki-uk]

Forgot to mention it's Cyber Monday...anyone shopping on-line and finding any good deals????

Cyber Monday????

You yanks!!....got a name for all kinds of days!!

Just spoke to me Mum.....she's just back from visiting me Brother (he lives up North in Yorkshire where they talk phunny AS do his children for gawd sake!)

.... and he's got a PUPPY!!!.....a miniature Schnauzer!!!

...but the thing that's puzzling me is 'we' (me Brother & I) were not allowed pets as he was allergic (asthma) ....not that I'm bitter or anything!

Love Em's new av he's quite a guy that Sam!!

Nearly bedtime, what day is it tomorrow??? ....what am I doing??....where's me braiiin

Very minimal brain function today........ I suspect that Tel has passed on his man flu to moi, (itchy sore throat starting) which will manifest itself as a COLD in me (female) ....and I WILL valliantly fight it orf!!!

Most wackl

OH! oh! did any of you read about this guy's skull???

Amanda, How's John doing? Is he feeling better?

[elye]

Has Soooozie detonated yet?

ooops, double.....and very strange happenings on the board

Yes, of course....coinciding wif the heinous, strange cyber things happening at me home, i.e., NO BLOODY INTERNET WHATSOEVAH. I'm sure these things are connected.

Glad we got the 'rubber protection device' figured out

So phunny.....this thing sounds so very prophylactic in nature, when described . .. . . ....I almost feel like I did find a condom in me ho' tub......

Sure there's all these newfangled grEy, black & brown tips NOW, but I recall a lifetime of brick-coloUred crutchtips too - why doesn't everyone?

x 10

I do not know why I found this so funny. Yes, my lifetime has been chock full of brick-coloUred crutch-tips, as well, Ptaoughmghmn.....guess we are kindred spirits.

I believe I will start a new focus group on facebook:

Brick-ColoUred Crutch-Tips - - A Part of My History

Wait! better yet:

Who in Hell Left Their Crutch-Tip in My Hot Tub?

[Jestgar]

Who in Hell Left Their Crutch-Tip in My Hot Tub?

And what were they doing with it in there??

[elye]

And what were they doing with it in there??

Yes!! That, too!!!

All right, seriously for one moment, pholks. This is, as I've been repeating, verrrrrrrrrry bizarre. It is starting to make me a little nuts, I think. No one else in the family is nearly as flummoxed (or can bother to be), as I am.

Were it your ho' tub, would it be killing you to know how this crutch-tip got in there, as it is me?

Man, even I couldn't a' made this one up... . too crazy.

HOW'D IT GET IN THERE??

A bird dropped it in. Like, a phreakin' big bird. . . . . .....

[tom]

Has Soooozie detonated yet?

:lol:

If not, we may as well start a pool - I'll take the 4:00-4:15 (Pacific Std Time) slot & a 3.2 on the Richter.

Forgot to mention I got my next Mayo appts.

Jan 13-15 endoscopy/colonoscopy, MRIs, immunologist & GI.

And despite MUCH talk about "no need to test for celiac", some of my blood was used for celiac blood tests & DNA. waste of $$$, but I'm DQ2.5, very common for celiac. But, <yawn> makes no difference to me w/ SO much unknown on celiac genetics.

OMG - Shane farts all day - has his own gastro issues (he had a bypass a few years ago and lost over 100 pounds) I DO insist that he walk into the warehouse for farting.......

I am just......experiencing a slow leak, I guess........no major richter scale recordance, yet Earlier in the day let out some good, newscaster-ish rippers while he was gone - You'd all have been proud

Nearly bedtime, what day is it tomorrow??? ....what am I doing??....where's me braiiin

Very minimal brain function today........ I suspect that Tel has passed on his man flu to moi, (itchy sore throat starting) which will manifest itself as a COLD in me (female) ....and I WILL valliantly fight it orf!!!

Oh no, not the Man Phlughe!!! well, yes, 'twill be but a cold in our valiant lass over the pond...she'll run around and function and do eveyrthing, per usual

Man, even I couldn't a' made this one up... . too crazy.

HOW'D IT GET IN THERE??

well......I think it would have been really quite normal to find a condom in yer tub, in any condition.........seriously. not so weird, right? but - the rubber tip from a crutch

WHAT IN HELL??????????????

What I am now thinking is that it was in the tub before or during the time it was being filled with water? Did any of those workers have crutches? that you know of???????

and BTW - I used crutches once in my life, circa 1988......I DISTINCTLY remember the dull, beige-ish yellow on their tips..........I think Ptaums' outta his mind Or - maybe it's a regional thing? only yellow-coloUred tips in CA?

oh HARRUMPH!!!!!!!!!!!! that could cost - hundreds, nay, thousands more?

Well - so glad you're getting all of this done!

[curlyfries]

Sooozieee!!!!!.........is it safe to come out, yet????

Jim thinks our rescue cat bites cause some nut declawed him whilst whacking off his balls.

Methinks that person needed glasses

Sure there's all these newfangled grEy, black & brown tips NOW, but I recall a lifetime of brick-coloUred crutchtips too - why doesn't everyone?

I was thinking that exact thing!!!

Maybe because your too old and we are soooooooooooooo to young to remember?

Tom and I are old enough to remember..........some people <ahem> are just too old to remember

Judith is a wackl extrordinaire!

Emmm......I had a vision......Tis all clear to me now.......One of yer dogs has been accosting disabled and injured pholks and stealing their crutch tips. A groomer with a broken leg once clipped her topknot too short, and she's had her panties in a bunch over it ever since. If you excavate your yard, you will find that there are a multitude of these rubbers on your property. The one ended up in the ho'tub because on that day, she had just had her nails done, and she simply couldn't ruin a good manicure.

[DingoGirl]

um........not entirely :lol:

:lol:

this sounds good...............

but - another theory - - -

there was some sort of skirmish with a person on crutches and that victim's malfeasor, somewhere around Em's house/yard.

The victim flailed his/her crutch wildly and.........the tip of it flew over the roof and ended up in the tub. So, then, this person STABBED the perp with the naked, metal crutch end. Hence, you must alert the Canadian Mounties - and I mean RUN, DON"T WALK - to look for an evil-doer, in their CSI undertakings, with a perfectly circular one-inch diameter scar somewhere on his body (most likely his head, as this is where ALL rubberless crutch violent crimes are dye-rected).

And while yer at it, please ask Mr. Cho, he may know something.......why don't you march over there during his morning constitutionals tai chi, with the crutch tip in hand, and DEMAND he tell you what is going on.

[DingoGirl]

Oh!

and Em, DO NOT forget to tell the Mounties that........there is a deranged, crutch-wielding LUNATIC - nay, MURDERER - loose in the city!!!!!! I forgot to tell you that - most likely the crutch victim is now killing people, because, in case you didn't know, that is ALWAYS what happens in cases like those.

And take that crutch tip in whilst you're telling the story, they'll need it for evidence!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Take Sam Hill with you also - - his grEy coloUR really gives him away and....I just know that he's involved in this somehow.

oh but wait - -

this is how you must preface your story:

"I found this brick-coloUred crutch-tip in my hot tub, and I just KNOW that someone is dead"

[elye]

and BTW - I used crutches once in my life, circa 1988......I DISTINCTLY remember the dull, beige-ish yellow on their tips..........I think Ptaums' outta his mind Or - maybe it's a regional thing? only yellow-coloUred tips in CA?

OMG. . ....this is fascinating. The difference in rubber crutch-tip coloUrs, through personal memories, regions of residence........ . ..

Okay. Ptaoughmghmn, Leeesa and I have clear memories of brick-coloUred tips (hell, I have one drying out on my counter!). Who else? I have never, ever seen black tips....this would be bizarre to me.

Emmm......I had a vision......Tis all clear to me now.......One of yer dogs has been accosting disabled and injured pholks and stealing their crutch tips. A groomer with a broken leg once clipped her topknot too short, and she's had her panties in a bunch over it ever since.

The one ended up in the ho'tub because on that day, she had just had her nails done, and she simply couldn't ruin a good manicure.

Ohhhhhh. . ....... . .Leeeesa could be onto something.

I will check my crutch tip for gnaw marks. Gad, i may have to dig up me yard. . . . ..

Actually, all kidding aside.......a dog chew toy is a GREAT idea for the odd crutch tip that turns up. It's useless without the crutch, but man, it's hard rubber, too big to choke on....you could break up little dog bickies and put them into the hole end, as we do with.. kongs.... . . .

Hmmm. Yes.....What else can I use this useless li'l thing for now?

Decidedly NOT as a necklace pendant.... . . . . ...
