Reminds me that my older son used to poke holes in a package of Peeps and let them dry out before eating them--he liked them so much better that way. He said they got "crusty".....

well....yuh!!!!

.....and I used to let my graham crackers sit out cuz they would soften up

[curlyfries]

Ummmmmm......about those + and - buttons where you can vote a post up or down.......then it looks like you get a reputation.

......is that good or bad?????

.....oooohhhhhhhh.......I know.......you probably get a positive or a negative number there.

Does everyone see what your reputation is?........gawd........whose idea was that?

[celiac-mommy]

Sorry to disappoint you, but this psilly doesn't drink

Me own mum tried to make a social drinker outta me, but it didn't woik!

......but I'll have me blankie, cafe mocha, and a good book

A gal after my own heart, I'd take a mocha over the rum anyday! I talk big, but rarely drink--secret's out. I'm usually the designated driver BUT I do have now 16 bottles of vodka in my freezer I do like me vodka, just not phreeckwently I pheel like I need it more than I drink it!

What??? You HATE peeps???

You must not have tried all the different varieties and different coloUrs, otherwise you would know . . . OK, yeah, they DO all taste the same . . . but how cute are they??? Doesn't that count for something??

Yes, I HATE Peeps. The problem is, they are so darned cute that you just want to take a bite out of them, hence my issue. Last year the kids BEGGED me at Christmas time to get the star shaped peppermint Peeps to put in their hot cocoa-both hated them and wouldn't even drink their cocoa. It was like eating whipped toothpaste

Holy Smores!!! (<---- That's so appropriate in more ways than one ) Your peeps talk and predict the weather??? OK, ummm, I've never seen that variety at the store . . . only the little chicks and bunnies at Easter, and snowmen and trees at Christmas, and some ghosta or summat at Halloween. Yeah, so maybe your peeps don't taste so good . . .

I actually have a friend that dated one of them a few years ago. She said that too.....mentioned something like drinking bleach

well....yuh!!!!

.....and I used to let my graham crackers sit out cuz they would soften up

Don't you think there's something wrong there? Aren't crackers and cookies supposed to get stale and custy, not soft?

[elye]

Whot in hell are these li'l things.....Peeps? Sound rather yuck.. . ..... .....whipped toothpaste..... Like the Twinkie, they probably have no discernable shelf life, and could be left in the back of one's cupboard for eight years, pulled out and -- good as new..!

Lisa - you know Em is laffing at us . . . but we're the ones that will get the day off (hopefully) . . . who'll be laffing then???

((((Sigh)))))) . . ..... ... . ..'tis true... . . ...you guys have the right idear. I want my city to shut down due to psnaough!! 'Twould be virtually unheard of -- no vehicles plowing through drifts, people in snowsuits struggling along, breaking trail to their jobs, their groceries, their schools... ....... . ..

STOP THE INSANITY!

Does everyone see what your reputation is?........gawd........whose idea was that?

As longstanding Members of Psillyville, I think it safe to assert that none of us would likely wish to see that number, if it is compiled by the broad masses.. . . ......

Panicked phonecall to hubby revealed he cannot get home 'til this evening - but directed me to the stopCOCK (*snicker,snort*)

[elye]

Gnickers has found her STOP COCK! Thank gawd. . ..... ... . ...Every woman needs to know where this pivotal li'l (or large, depending upon yer household) item is located. Must have MY DH point his ours out to me. ........ . . ... ..

Sounds just like the Deutschlanders. Temp -30 (F); nothing but ice and frostbite everywhere, and the little uns struggling to school, wearing four layers of everything which it takes 20 minutes to put on and 20 minutes to take off again; shop assistants in fancy establishments allowed to wear Uggs (iffen they had had them then), but furlined boots and wearing tights under their trews, because "the show must go on." But come summer, they turn into wusses. Gets to 90 degreess (F), they close the schools!!!

As longstanding Members of Psillyville, I think it safe to assert that none of us would likely wish to see that number, if it is compiled by the broad masses.. . . ......

I wonder what the cut-off point is on your rep score? Maybe this is another Skaught tool to try and keep us in line. As if...!!!

Methinks poor Knickers has more domestic malfunctions than yer average psilly! Are ye malfunction prone, Knick?? Did nae know that is what ye called the shut-off valve Could we fit one to all rapists??

Check out his thumbs first afore ye waste the time fumbling in the snow for his stopcock

Hubby went into town yesterday in search of a ballcock, and came home with a piece of foam tubing!! Somehow, I don't think that's going to work

Drat, emoticonily busted again. Will have to add more <snortles> in future.

Does anyone know WIH I have been lately? It's Thursday? It was just Monday yesterday! I am in creting online course insanity. You guys think THIS board is bad- try Blackboard where you have to upload every file one at a time. I must have 400 files (can't talk to them so I have to write it all down!).

Bevvy is SO confused- the US beat Canada at WHAT hockey game? :unsure:

and I used to let my graham crackers sit out cuz they would soften up

Me too!

I actually have a friend that dated one of them a few years ago. She said that too.....mentioned something like drinking bleach

Your friend dated a Peep? What color? Well, he must have been sugary sweet at the very least :lol:

I rarely drink, and am a HORRENDOUS lightweight....get the most FEROCIOUS hangovers...although I always enjoy it at the time

I only have TWO bottles of vodka in my freezer......WHY???

Moi too! I love drinking my cosmos when I do tho. Drank 2 glasses of champagne NYE and was a) snockered (waited until 11 PM to start)

hungover all the next day (was more often asleep than awake) but was it worth it? YES! But only once or twice a year.

Patti said *BANG* and *COCK* in the same post :lol: I ADORE Big Bang Theory- Kurt claims it's an exact replica of his college experience (computer geeks). Don't know how Sheldon says his lines without cracking up. An algorithim for making friends :lol:

Gee, it is nice and warm here in my trash can.

Gee, it is nice and warm here in my trash can.

Yeah, sure, lord it over all of us, Oscar!

[elye]

Shroomie, you are SOOOOO right -- foam tubing does NAE do the job that a good, solid ballcock will manage. Gawd, ya send a husband out to get the right equipment, and pfffffffffffft...... . .

Bevel! So great to read yer post, with lots of cackly faces. You must be feeling better.. . ....

Hmmm, that Oscar.... ....... .he's a mystery, that one.... . ..... ..

[jerseyangel]

True dat!

[Darn210]

Well, the kids had school today . . . not even a delay. Smakl was sooooo disappointed he almost teared up at breakfast. Then to make matters worse, the kids weren't even allowed out to play in the snow at recess (we really don't get too many good snowfalls) because 3/4 of the kids didn't wear(or bring) hats/gloves (boots aren't required to go out but you have to stay in the 'cleared' area). Really?? These are elementary school kids . . . they still listen to their parents (for the most part) so why didn't the parents prepare these kids to deal with 6 inches of snow??!!! GAH!!!

I thought for sure we would have lots of no-shows at the preschool . . . NOPE. I think we were missing 4 kids total and I know one of those was because he was sick. Don't get me wrong, I'm not scared to drive in the snow, but if you don't have to, why would you?

Love Big Bang Theory . . . would love to see Sheldon in "real life". He plays his role so well, you think he's probably really like that.

Stop Cocks and Ball Cocks . . . yeah, it was about time that conversation circled around again.

Best line of the day (from Shroomie): Check out his thumbs first afore ye waste the time fumbling in the snow for his stopcock :lol:

I have a weirdity for you guys.

My dad calls me. He got a phone call from a guy who gave his name as Frank, said we worked together at a smallish company (named the company, I just don't want to type it) and said I'd remember him. Left a phone number that has a NJ prefix.

Jyess, didja work at the 'smallish company'?

[jerseyangel]

Jyess, didja work at the 'smallish company'?

Yeah, jidja?

M-m-m-m....Jersey.....maybe I know him?

They say we're all connected.....

[Jestgar]

Jyess, didja work at the 'smallish company'?

yep. And there was someone there named Frank, but not anyone I really worked with.

OK, I called the number (from work, which goes through a central switchboard). There is a long connect time, then it goes directly into voicemail which has an answering message of "...yes, leave me a message"

creepy?

[Jestgar]

he called my dad. If the guy isn't savvy enough to use google, he's not gonna know about being friends. It totally seems like someone is using stolen information.
