WHAT IN HELL???? I can't leave you kids alone for a MINUTE!

I leave with your father to go watch a movie, just one hour of peace, and I come back to find Susan getting snifgf'd by strange men, Jess is typing like a dislexic scotch moron, Patty's snoot is phul, somebody stuck little paper fritu thingiers on the hoes, and the damn beans are ho' tubbin it in the CROCKPOT, for Gods' sake?! Tsk, tsk, ladies--and gents--you have been naughty little pups. Now straight to bed, all of you. No pudding for you.

I will esplain about de gorillas in blue on the morrow, you nutty wackd out sneeches.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

hmm seem to have a bit of a headache this morning. must be something I ate :ph34r:

I have pine needles from the sheets stuck all over my body, and I don't seem to have rinsed after brushing my teeth because there's an excess of ....mint flavoring.... in my mouth.

Or maybe I decided to have a piece of gum before sleeping. should probably check my pillowcases for a wad of partially chewed gum.

"The birth of Mojo"

subtitle the story of the blue gorilla

Once upon a time some very psilly pee-pull were spending wayyy too much time on an online auto industry technical forum whilst working. Some of said techs were even sending pictures to each other, and personal info and anecdotes. Well, one day the corporate po-leece showed up and were not amused.

(I believe me hubby was one of the perpetrators invloved in the insidious crime--something about bacon <<really>>.) The po-leece gave them all a big spanking and they were temporarily grounded from forum priveleges.

Now, much protesting was soon to follow this flagrant misunderstanding, and a rogue tech (ie=mechanic) from somewhere down Indiana way, was forever banned. Said tech, a lovley man whom I am happy to call a friend, decided to pull a gorilla maneuver and branch out on his own. Thus, "The Blue Gorilla Tech Forum" was born.

A young lad of all of 13 years put his genius to work and created thebluegorilla.com--BUT WAIT!!! Before you click on it, let me tell you that it is a private, closed forum, and not open to the public. If you go to the site you will be told you must have an account. And let me tell you why...

The corprate po-leece were seriously not amused by these reactionary methods and tried unceasingly for months to shut it down, without success. No copyrights were violated, no insider info was mishandled, no eggregious wrongs were ever committed. Just some guys--and gals--that wanted to talk about cars.

Now, back to the 13 year old boy who created the site. His name shall remain undisclosed, but I would like to add that said lad is the nephew of one of the funniest dang comedians I have ever seen perform (a really pale guy that talks about food a lot.)

So, one day a blue gorilla member buys a plush gorilla toy on e-bay and sends it to the forum admin as a gift. Me hubby suggested he send it to another member, and the rest is history. Mojo has travelled across the entire North American continent including Canada, and I think even Mexico. He has been well outfitted along the way with a holster and capgun in Wyoming, a real stuffed gator head in Florida. He has been to baseball games, bars, vacation homes. He has an entire mini sized wardrobe, a photo album/scrapbook, and comes to the reunion every year in Indiana.

Travelling gnome, indeed. This monkey really gets around.

And btw, the reunions are a gass!! We have a great time and I would love to do something like this here

[jerseyangel]

Yes! I was lying in bed, making a list of things that I have never thrown up. ... ......

Only you Em, would actually remember what all you did NOT throw up.....I however remember what I did, since I very rarely throw up (if not pregnant ...then all bets are off). My list includes rice (how ironic that after this incident in 5th grade, I did not go near rice fer years....), beer, and chili. That's about it.

Hope none of youse are eating your breakfast.....

Oh, I don't think you guys need to worry about her . . . she's progressing waaaaay too quickly.

This is good to hear!!! JoDog on the mend!!!!

hmm seem to have a bit of a headache this morning. must be something I ate :ph34r:

Uh yeah, that's it.....something you ate Now go get yerselph some coffee, change yer sheets and try and locate that toothbrush You was phunny last night

"The birth of Mojo"

What a great story, Minimom!!!! I most heartily agree that we MUST do something similar. Emmel has gifted a phriend wif Sam Hill Manhead, but I'm sure we could come up wif a Yetti facsimile er sumphin to send betwixt all of us.

One of me phondest wishes is for all of us sillies to someday get together--all in one place. It has to happen......but how?? Suz--what about the 20 mil? Any chance you get yer hands on part of that? I'm more than happy to host.....

[Jestgar]

The drunken chile actually turned out quite good.

I also forgot the onions, so I sauteed some this morning and threw 'em in. I also added a shot of scotch, just for commemorative purposes.

May need an extra pot of coffee, however. Today's plan is to decide where to plant this year's sacrificial azalea, and I need some motivation for that.

[elye]

Aren't those endagered??? You can get into biiiigggggg trouble if "they" found out you were cookin' one up.

I think they are native to Armenia.......I will call the embassy here in town and ask about the status of the Armenian Civckeb.....

Oh, I don't think you guys need to worry about her . . . she's progressing waaaaay too quickly.

This really is great news, Jyahgnutt. . . . ..... Tough on you, but great fer us.. .. . . ..

So, this rogue Scothc anestheesioologist scared the bisjesghhes outta me the other day. He said that thea coyote and lawyer attacks were on the rise and that the lawyers attaxk very sloewly, wearing masks. Then he opened his trench coat, flashed me his doublewood, then tried to SNIFGF me right there on the street! I made a puget sound, and ran away verrry slowwwwleee. The weird thing is, I've been haunted by this odor ever since--like bacon wrapped double fudge cloves??

OMG....a doublewood phlashing.. . . . .....now THOSE must be rare. . .. . .....

I HATE when that happens! Guys only interested in one thing -- snifgfing. . . . .. ..

I have pine needles from the sheets stuck all over my body, and I don't seem to have rinsed after brushing my teeth because there's an excess of ....mint flavoring.... in my mouth.

Um......this is fascinating, Jyess. You must have been out rolling in the forest last evening at some point, like a wee sylvan sprite.. . . ..

Raye-chull! What an epic. . .. .....a great story!

We often dream about a Major Psilly Psummit, involving everyone, at some mid-point on the continent.......but then there's Nikkers across the pond. . . . . . ...

HOW CAN WE DO THIS??

[psawyer]

but then there's Nikkers across the pond. . . . . . ...

When I read this, my mind registered it initially as knickers across the pond--well of course they're knickers over there, aren't they? :lol:

Jess sounds like she has slept it off after another exciting Saturday night on Bainbridge--who knew it was such a phun place?

[DingoGirl]

Gah...... . . ....you cooked a CIVCKEB?? They have those 'round yer parts? We do not have access to such things up here. I believe they are Armenian, and I am certain that I have never thrown one of those up. .. . .. ..

Aren't those endagered??? You can get into biiiigggggg trouble if "they" found out you were cookin' one up.

can't even TELL you how delightful this is..........and yes, we ALWAYS talk about a Psillie reunion........

wish I COULD have gotten my hands on that 22 Mil

it was for my cousins.......who knows how much would have been left when their grandfather finally dies but......she would have shared some of it with me, this I know for certain. (they gave me a cheque out of his estate last year, I mentioned it briefly, though I think I SCREAMED it on here, I was so thrilled)

What a great story, Minimom!!!! I most heartily agree that we MUST do something similar. Emmel has gifted a phriend wif Sam Hill Manhead, but I'm sure we could come up wif a Yetti facsimile er sumphin to send betwixt all of us.

we must find this yeti.......I"ll see if I can scrounge up the 22 mil, and we'll all be in Texas in no time

sacrificial azalea? WIH? Is this the plant upon which you throw up er sumphin?

Well, must get ready to head on over to Janie's......we are going to watch the remake of Grey Gardens (Jessica Lange and Drew Barrymore) but.....I fear that NOTHING can match the original documentary..............most fab thing ever.......

SILLLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!! My college roommate (Tulsa, for one year) just found me on Facebook......she lives in Norway.........and guess what, she is CELIAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm out of my MIND over this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

missed that the first time, just love it

and there's LEESARGH squiggling!!!!!!!!!!!!

HI LEESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[elye]

LET'S ALL SQUIGGLE WIF LEEEEEEESARGH!!!!!

[curlyfries]

GAAAHHHH!!!!!!!......HOW DID I GET SO FAR BEHIND???????..........How many pages did y'all go thru last nite?.......can't believe I missed it all. I still haven't fallen into my old routine since I've been back home. It doesn't feel like my real life, anymore. Hubby not here....DD and her fiancee and all their STUFF is. What a mess I came home to to which I came home. And for the last 5 weeks I lived a different reality.

JoDog's home with about a 5 inch incision in her knee that is stapled together. Looks Frankensteinish.

Brian had 38 39 staples in his leg....38 removed by the doc. That nite Brian found one he had missed, so he decided to remove it himself, for reasons I will explain shortly........DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!!! He used a pliars and screwdriver, and I had to hold the flashlight......thought I would pass out! He finally got it, after much struggle and some bleeding <gagface>

The reason he didn't go back to the doc was because we went to the hospital for his 10:30 appointment, and....I kid you not....did not get out of there until after 5:00!.....4 hour wait to see the doc, then more waiting to get checked out of the hospital! Evidently this is typical.

My ancestors were mostly Polish immigrants (some Russian and German), my husband's were French, English, and French Canadian Indians. My husbands grandfather was a full-blooded Indian, Ojibwe to the best of our knowledge.

My maternal grandmother was French Canadian Indian......grandfather was German.

I've aso; discovered that bacon goes quite well with scothc

Evidently so!

i think the population of the island is like 50 % attorneys. I've often thought of ny safety risks while doing my very early motning walks. I figure thea lawyers attaxk very sloewly and with muicuh conversation so i could get way. and what're the chances of stya a rougue anestheesioologist jumping out of the bisjesghhes with a mask and container of whateber that gas is that they use to put your to sleep?

not too unsafde

Yeah......not too many rogue anesthesiologists are seen jumping out of bushes trying to gas people.......no worries there.

dude

you have not l;ived unitl you've sneezed raw vborocili out your nose

That's OK.....I'm good!

Too much else to comment on......what a night! Jess shnockered, cooking, and talking to her sillies...the best remedy for the doldrums ever!

Mimmsy....so glad you've been pulled into our vortex.....you can nae leave us now!

Went garage saleing yesterday with DD......bought some clothes for me......lost more weight after hubby's accident and really didn't need to. I have no butt or....well, you know. Also bought some BABY things!

[curlyfries]

LET'S ALL SQUIGGLE WIF LEEEEEEESARGH!!!!!

[Darn210]

Sorry it took so long....seems I'm always getting interrupted whenever I decide to post .......plus, I'm a slow typer

But your spelling is good . . . so not drinking at the moment??? . . . or are you using a spell checker.

Garage sale starts Thursday. Neighbor down the street is bringing her things and will sit and sell my stuff for me on Thursday and I will do the same for her on Friday. I always wonder why I do this. I also swear every time that nothing is coming back in to the house. What doesn't sell will go to Good Will . . . but that hasn't happened yet.

Ummmm . . . . . . why did you have to hold a flashlight . . . were you trying to be secretive . . . hiding in the closet or under the covers so that no one would see and report you to the . . . uhhhh . . . rogue anesthesiologists. Perhaps it was due to the staple's location. Where exactly was this staple located??? Wait!!! Don't answer that!!! I don't think I want to know!!

No spell checker, but I am anal about my spelling and grammar (not saying it's perfect, mind you). Having a hard time falling back into 'psillie speak' at the moment.....still trying to find me psilly.

I was originally planning on having a garage sale over spring break......that plan kinda flew out the window. I have all my old clothes to get rid of.

The lighting was not so good.......we'd been living in a trailer....plus the staple was rather embedded in the skin, and the flashlight made the metal shine.

What a mess I came home to to which I came home. And for the last 5 weeks I lived a different reality.

It's impossible to imagine, Leeesarh..........your life these past few weeks. You have made it through - - and you amaze me!!

The two of you, alone in the darkness of a trailer, trying to find a hidden staple...... . . .. .how romantic. . . . .!.

I must just say now that last night's posting shenanigans with our smashed Jyess were the phunniest I've experienced in a loooooong time 'round here. .. .....still larfing. . . .....

True Dat . . . Jess should drink more often . . . *hic*

I had no idea how bad my posts were :lol:

My mistake was starting the scotch before starting dinner. :ph34r:

Planted some more herbal things. Sacrificial azalea is under the holly. And I now have 5 tomato plants. D'ya think that's enough for one person?

[Jestgar]

I told my mom I posted her pic, but hadn't yet passed along her butt scoot story. Her response:

Hi

I don,t mind you sharing stories.The butt scoot is pretty funny and we laughed a lot too .I didn't think it would work,but it did.Tell your celiac group hi from us,and if they have a weird problem, contact your Dad.

Love

Mom

and here's the butt scoot story. Keep in mind my parents are both in their 70's:

Mom doesn't do well on stairs, so I built up a pile of pillows for her to sit on, and then slide off the pillows to the floor. She then could butt scoot down the steps, grab the walker and hop on her "good" leg (Pulled a muscle or tendon or something, hurts to walk) to the car. Fortunately the there were wheel chairs at the medical center. Transfer from the car to the chair snd off to the elevators. Saw the DR's nurse, who checked the ankle, applied a new dressing, and sent us on our way.

Home again. Reverse of the trip out, i.e., hop to the stairs, and butt scoot up the steps to the floor. Now it changes. while sitting on the floor, I had her pull up a bit on the railing so I could get some pillows under her. This lifted her about a foot or so. Then, she pulled herself up from the pillows by hanging on to the walker, while I lifted her from the back.

[elye]

Sacrificial azalea is under the holly. And I now have 5 tomato plants. D'ya think that's enough for one person?

Jyesss, I think that the more fresh produce you have available for your meals, the better. Um, you seem to have some trouble with yer can opener. . . . ... .. ..

This is wonderful, hearing from a Psilly Mom!! We should let all the Moms drop by here.... . . . ..but you all know the one word that my mother would keep saying to all of you, as she reads the posts... .. ...

[mimommy]

Gah...... . . ....you cooked a CIVCKEB?? They have those 'round yer parts? We do not have access to such things up here. I believe they are Armenian, and I am certain that I have never thrown one of those up. .. . .. ..

Although rare, civckebs have been spotted in several areas of North America.

Aren't those endagered??? You can get into biiiigggggg trouble if "they" found out you were cookin' one up.

Once near endangerment of extinction, the native civckeb is now naturalizing and multiplying at a rapid rate. In fact, in some states they are filibustering to allow special hunting lotteries to thin the herd.

Tis true.

I most heartily agree that we MUST do something similar.

One of me phondest wishes is for all of us sillies to someday get together--all in one place. It has to happen......but how?? I'm more than happy to host.....

Yes, let's! Can we please, huh? Huh?

Part-ay @ Patteigh's! Here's how it works--1) Choose a date 2) Book a flight on credit card 3) Arrive

The drunken chile actually turned out quite good.

I also forgot the onions, so I sauteed some this morning and threw 'em in. I also added a shot of scotch, just for commemorative purposes.

'Oh, what shall we do with the drunken chile...?'

OMG....a doublewood phlashing.. . . . .....now THOSE must be rare. . .. . .....

I HATE when that happens! Guys only interested in one thing -- snifgfing. . . . .. ..

doublewood phlashing Yes, only the youngest lawyers can pull this off.

But, I must say, I knew the very first time Scott and I snifgf'ed that he was the only man for me

When I read this, my mind registered it initially as knickers across the pond--well of course they're knickers over there, aren't they?

'My boxers lie over the ocean,

my knickers lie over the sea'

I am sooo cheesed off--quotebusters got me and I had already typed out some dang psilly stuff

[flourgirl]

Mimm-e-o, I have to say, you add a very special something to this group. I'm glad you're here!

Sacrificial Azaleas....yes. I have several. They were meant to be beautiful and prolific in their flowering.....but the deer have deflowered defoliated every dang one. I now have several very naked shrubs....(talk about your double wood!). Every yard should have at least one

Drunken typing going on...I think I crapped out signed off too soon! Then again....I need to sleep when sleep calls....because it will not wait for me and has no patience. 'Tis a lousy lover and rarely stays the night with me.

I'm all for the psilly gathering. Pah-tay...if it doesn't work out at your place, WV is "wild and wonderful" and "almost heaven" (both official slogans of the state). Would be a real gasssss!

One of these days I'm going to go to "Da Book" and get caught up again. S'posed to be rainy for the next several days...good time to do that.

I have not yet planted tomato plants.....but I did get all of my seeds in the garden today (YAY!) Can't wait for the fresh stuff. We do 4 tomato plants and freeze/can a lot of it. I also will do Sweet Potato again this year. I found a variety that is pale yellow....not nearly so sicky sticky sweet. It has a great texture....and holds up in stews. I LOVE this stuff. Also froze and stored enough veggies that lasted into february. I want to do even more this year...sure beats buying crud stuff from the store and tastes....well...store stuff can't even begin to compare.

Sorry...I tend to get a little carried away by garden stuff!

Hope you all had a wonderful, wonderful Sunday. (It's been warm enough that I wore shorts for the last 2 days....yippeeee). 'Til later....

Okey dokey.

I got, like, 5 bowls of chile in the freezer, plus another big bowl in the frig, the rest of my civckeb, an entire package of chicken thighs with different rubs on them, and a jamaican rub pork loin that just came outta the crock.

May I suggest that we hold the event at my house, since I seem to have already cooked for it?

Perhaps I need to declare a couple no-shop weekends.

Let's all gather at our westernmost member's abode for a party. There's lots of food, but I fear that she may have used up most, if not all, of the scotch. Perhaps BYOB would be fitting.
