I agree with Patti. I loved Flash Forward but couldn't keep track of when it was or wasn't on. Weather sounds lovely Peter.

Jess- in Spain they have Castillian (sp?) as a language, too. I think most people you will see will speak English.

Need some f book advice. The "MIL" has discovered fb. she wants to friend me. I am really friends with her ex hub and his sister. They were actually FILs step kids he adopted. I don't want her spying on me or thinking I like her. She and FIL have done some horrible evil things. However, it might be good to keep an eye on her. My SIL has already friended her so you will see some things that way. I'm planning on pretending I haven't seen it for a few days. Want to see if see friends the ex kids.

You could friend her, then unfriend her later. She'll never know (unless she takes the time to look for your name on her friend list).

I'll be going the end of August and plan to do barcelona, the southern towns, and Madrid. I may add some northern stuff, or just save that for later, depending on my mood.

OH fan- f***in-tastic!!!!!!!!!!! :D

I went to Barcelona with my parents many moons ago - BEAUTIFUL sights!!

...but I have to ask (as yer be but a few countries away) WHEN ARE YOU COMING TO ENGLAND?!?!

I think ABC goophed big time by not running all of the episodes at one clip. It's hard for people to get back into something after having it gone for months. It worked for Lost, but only after it had been on for several seasons.

I'm glad he has another TV project in the works :)

Unfortunately, the same thing happened here <_< ... and when it came back it was on a different night - so I didn't get to watch it.

WORLD CUP!!! In less than two weeks!! :D :D :D

Oh yes!!!.... how can I forget? :rolleyes:

Flags will be hung outside (with bunting....do you have that? :unsure: )

England football kit shirts will be worn..along with hats, scarves,..whatever you can find with a St George cross on it.

Match schedules are being worked out.

Dan (my eldest) may have to play hookey from work if an England match occurs between 9-6pm...come to think of it, nothing gets done during these highly important matches. The country grinds to a halt.

The streets become bare like a plague has befallen us,tumble weeds blowin' through as everyone crams into pubs/living rooms...... the only noise to be heard is the roar when England score!!!! ..... ( we hope :rolleyes:)

T'is hard NOT to get caught up in it :lol:

Yeah, even lil ole New Zealand qualified for the Cup this time around, the last team to make it in, I think :(. Of course, we is holding high hopes for them :lol:, especiially since the vice-captain (do they akshually NEED a captain for that??) has fractured his shoulder last week :unsure: But that's all right because they have screwed it back together with three screws and he reckons he'll be good to go by the second match on the 20th :o And t'was one of them evil Ossies what did it to him :rolleyes: Go the All Whites!!

Lord, I have all this to look forward to with Jack.... .:unsure: . ....actually, there will be no car parts strewn about with him. ... . . ..I'll be seeing model pieces, papers on various theses, scribblings on life... . .... .and these things can take up nearly as much space, so I won't be getting off easy, to be sure. BUT -- no epoxy paint smell. 'Tis good. .. . ....

When Nathan was little, it was butterfly nets, jars of various bugs, maps......not sure what he was studying on the maps, then as he got older it was turtles, snakes, iguana......

Man, I want a husband/son like this!! How phabulous to have a guy around who can change yer spark plugs/oil, flush yer radiator, replace lights and sensors.. . . ..... .

My daughter Briana was the mechanic :rolleyes: ......learned from her daddy. She was very proud of herself that she could do what a lot of men couldn't. She tuned up her car, changed the oil, replaced the brake pads......

Nathan knew enough to keep his car running while in college.

GADS!! Some o' yooz kids breakin' up from school already??? :unsure:

Ours don't until late July, go back Sept

I've been out for a week. We go back August 2.

WORLD CUP!!! In less than two weeks!! :D :D :D

Nathan will be watching for sure! At the age of 13 he was in Ireland when they won the World Cup. Nathan played for years, and quit after high school. He is just now joining an adult league for the first time. Can't believe he will be playing in the heat of the Texas summer! :o

My favorites are John Mellencamp, CCR, Prince, Bad to the Bone dude and Bette Midler and Bret Michaels

The things in my bucket list are all mushy emotional things like "be more pleasant"...stuff like that.

My dream home is a 1940's farmhouse with a red and white kitchen and linoleum floor.

OCD - I have to pick up and put down my sock 5 times before I put them on. No idea where that came from, but it's the only OCD thing I do. basically.

What's a vacation?

We call him a back yard bred lab - (in a Ozark hillbilly accent)" You got a Lab and I got a lab, we can make a lotta money on the puppies." He has the big head and feet of that type and the skinny body of the slender ones. He's not too smart...but he's pretty!

Bad to the Bone dude

It has been a while since I have visited the psillies. There are new phaces, and some pholks seem to be missing. Where are Suzie and Manda? I hope they are well.

A possibly phunny observation for Sunday evening: To a pessimist, the glass is half-empty. To an optimist, the glass is half-full. To a psilly, more wodka is defintely needed. :lol:

Hi Oscar!

You are my second favorite sesame street character. My favorite is the Cookie Monster! Years ago I used to play Quake (a first person shooter) and you could put different 'skins' on your character. I found out on the net someplace a Cookie Monster skin and loved playing with that - except that I absolutely stink at Quake. :)

So one day I was playing with about a 1/2 dozen co-workers at lunch and I was having a worse day playing than usual. I died at least 30 times in a 5 minute period and the hallway where I kept dying was carpeted with blue cookie monster bodies. It was kinda like the 'secret elephant burial ground' for cookie monsters! :lol:

I totally agree! Did you ever see the 'Far Side' comic where all the Sesame Street characters are gathered for Thanksgiving (I assume) dinner and there is an empty chair and a Giant 'Turkey-like' bird on the platter in the middle of the table? :)

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
