  1. Yes...upon sober second thought, you just may be right, Tom...
  2. ..Looks like you scared Jimbo006 off, guys...
  3. Yes, I've been suspecting for some time that our Psawyer is, in, fact, the very Pete in "for Pete's sake"...I think he's our man. He may very well be the Peter in "Peter the Great", as well. And who do you think Elton John wrote Peter's Song for? Indeed, there could be a whole lot more about Peter that we're just beginning to understand. He knows the...
  4. Oh, wow...everybody's been so busy tripping, falling, hitting mammals, letting mammals in and out and in and out...just look at what I miss! Patti: That is a very traumatic experience. I know I would have barfed. Ontario has racked up something like thrice (three times ) the number of fatalities from vehicle/deer collisions this year. Something...
  5. Yeah, Peter, C'mon! Why did Zidane head-butt his opponent in the World Cup final? Do the French not fight with their fists? I have been pondering this situation for as long as I can remember (maybe age 7-8) and it drives me nuts. It makes me feel like my head will implode if I think any harder. Is the universe infinite? It must end somewhere. But when...
  6. Hi, Janet! Sorry you've been sick...and no special post crossing! Now, of course your family has not vomited, for they do not post on here. Ya wanna keep your brood barf, snot and diahrrea-free, keep them away from this forum and the magic post numbers...
  7. This is the fairly unanimous Canuck pronunciation, as well. Almost...Here it's "wUr-stir-sheer". Kinda... Our mad PMer would be pronouncing it "wUr-stir-sheers".... This is amusing...Will is my DH, as well. I brandish a number of things at him, caustic wit the least of it all... Heavens, there's a lot of...
  8. If one's lower intestine is not digesting the gluten protein, then one is gluten intolerant. There isn't any grey area. you cannot be "made" intolerant, or celiac. It is a genetic condition that you are born with. Symptoms can be made more noticeable by being away from gluten for a period and then introducing it again--this is what happened to me. I...
  9. What?! Details are being spared on this thread?! ...Gasp...Peter knows everything? Thank Gawd, at last!!... Peter: Why does the gynaecologist leave the room when a woman gets undressed? What do people in China call their good plates? Why do people point to their wrists when asking for the time, but don't point to their...
  10. Mygawd...I suppose it's okay for little animals such as cats to find stimulation in such a way, but you wouldn't want to see any big creatures partaking in such a way on blankets...or backsides. ...Like our yeti... Is this part of large, bipedal creature habitual behavior?! Hell, I'm putting away my fleecy blankets! Way to go, Jess...
  11. I wanted to visit Wooster-sheer when we were across the pond in the summer, as the town of Lye is there...Apparently my namesakes started up the village a million years ago. I'm sure it's quite an...interesting...place, with my ancestors all over the place.. It's such adorable, but curious, behavior. Why on earth do they do this? ...
  12. Thanks, Patti. Oh, PEEEEEETTTTEEEERRRRRR....(cupped hand against dominant ear).... It's quite astonishing...He cleaned up ALL the Christmas dinner plates (was very well-behaved at the dinner table--sat beside my dad, nodding politely at all his jokes), then pulled all the neighboUrhood kids around the block on their toboggans, some hanging...
  13. Ah, Good Mornin', Sillies! The hectic holidays continue...relatives coming and going, carrying out pop-ins if they are not already staying here. Got glutened at my sister's last evening. Bah. I come to love this place more and more...You guys are a necessary humoUrous and intellectual respite that I must now rush to, even during the bloomin...
  14. Oh, Amanda...wow, I did not know that John had cancer. Such an ordeal to go through, but at least you had each other!
  15. Grrrrr....haven't gotten my slippers yet. Must venture out this aft. Feet are frigid... Yep, in the middle of July the sun never really sets in Whitehorse...just too bizarre for me--like being on another planet. Insomniacs with suicidal tendencies... That is so terrific, Carla. What a great brood you seem to have! Glad you...
  16. Mornin', all! Mygosh, Susie...a pathetic Canuck you'd make...I'd never get out of the house if I didn't just resign myself to some bitter outings. Should be quite temperate today, however--right around the freezing mark. MIL tells me it's averaging -50 in Whitehorse right now--with, get this--about three hours of daylight per twenty-four...
  17. We haven't heard from Tom...wonder how things have transpired at his sister's place...
  18. Nikki, I am doing exactly the same thing tomorrow...going out for new slippers, which I informed everyone I needed but did NOT receive...are the shops open on Boxing Day over there? They are here, but I shan't venture out. The radio speaks about fistfights breaking out due to squabbling over much-coveted parking spots (Walmart staff had to call authorities...
  19. Hey, Guys! The day after...but the party continues, as it is my DS's birthday. So, gotta haul up the festive feeling for another day. Exhausted emoticon here. Ate profusely yesterday. It sounds like that syndrome which compels one to consume a chocolate each time one passes by the tray is fairly common. The worst part was, I was rather hypoglycemic...
  20. Mygawd...I'll make sure our power tools are hidden away... Dunno if I'll be posting again till after the big day tomorrow, so a big MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! To all of my new, hilarious friends. I so look forward each day to conversing and laughing with you all...Susie, Janet, Tom, Nikki, Bev, Amanda, Alex, Patti, Sarah, Jess...gosh...
  21. Nikki said budging... Gad, no! I'll be certain that does not happen. The race is the end of January, I believe. He'll be back by then, if we want him. Man, my community's gonna miss him...he's cleared our main thoroughfare street, our two residential skating rinks, helped push numerous trucks out of ditches and snowbanks...man,...
  22. Well, MIL is strongly rallying to have him go back up north with her (in six loooonnnnngggggg days), and he can be entered as part of the Yukon Quest sled team. He shovelled our driveway, then our neighbours' on either side of us (DD is annoyed as he's taken away her paying winter chore), and now he's working his way down the street, up on everyone's...
  23. Oh, Alex! Terrific confetti! Hope I can get on here a few more times before actual Christmas Eve...We're going to my BIL's for supper, and I want one of Tom's phones that I can just bring along and type in my ends of conversations. You guys do not, that I am aware of, (so I guess that's all that really matters!) stare at me, then look at each other...
  24. Merry Christmas Eve, everyone! I was going to paraphrase here a terrific writer's thoughts on the buildup to Christmas in our society, but I've just decided to put it in another thread. It's not silly Christmas talk, you see... Okay, gotta wax serious here for a moment: Tom, if you are ill, no one will blame you or be offended if you take...
  25. Uh.....I dunno what those are.... Unless they're the same thing as Canadian prairie oysters....And I believe the yeti would happily chow down on those... Good idea, Susie! Yes, Nikki, what do you folks across the pond have for your Christmas dinners? Is everyone having turkey? Wonder if the yeti can help me cook...
