    Lye's my last name. Quite horrid-sounding, really, and it's a toilet cleanser. But at least it's very short to write and spell out to someone. (you can imagine the kidding I got in public school..."Em's a liar! Liar!") My pants were always on fire...

    We've heard that Tom is also into...inflatable things. So the spiked heels may not be on his borrow list, but I notice that in our basement we have a blow-up Santa for our front lawn. ...If you're looking for that sort of thing, Tom. I have to think about whether or not I actually want to hear your answer; this is a Santa Claus effigy, after all... Okay...

    Well, I have a BIG confession to make. I have no idea what making someone your friend on here does,--why we do it, what the perks are...Richard suddenly became my FIRST friend a couple of weeks ago, and then more followed. I tend to be something of a sheep, and follow the great flock, so now I have started "befriending"...Do we go to each other's houses...

    Okay, I am fulfiling my duties right this minute...I am going to help some sad soul right now. I'm breaking free of the strict Silly environs for some serious discussion with troubled people on another thread...some reaching out. Here I go, now...no flip play on words, clever innuendo, just words of support. And NO LAUGHING....

    Bev, it's funny you mention this. I was just thinking yesterday (y'know, deep birthday thoughts, where's-the-time-going, guilt, regrets, all those horrid yearly pinings as the hourglass slowly runs in the background), that I have been SO lax in my responibilities of helping the newbies who get on here, depressed and frightened. Our Cult of Madness makes...

    Excellent, Tom!! We are just talking about a DATE for our yeti, but who knows how fast a mover he is, patricularly at a wedding? So I say he can dance the first dance with Amanda and she'll let him Lead, he can drive our limo and we'll let him Speed, he'll be first at the buffet and we'll Let him Feed, and if an angry Chuck Norris shows up, we'll be Lettin...

    We'd better make sure Ms. Spears is NOWHERE NEAR our procession...and everyone, as a precaution, watch your feet. Susie!! Robert Duvall? Ewwwwwwwwww! Anybody else react to him that way, or am I alone in my he's-a-great-actor-but-NO-panting-going-on reaction? Tell you what, you can sit beside Mr. Duvall. I think I'd even rather sit beside the Dalai...

    Uhhhhhhh.....Amanda....Hate to tell you this, but you may have to be re-ordering post haste. We'll be needing considerably more seating than for fourteen. There's your wedding party, then all of us...and you must know that the yeti will likely take up three seats alone. Will there be a sunroof that he can stick his upper body out of?

    Okay, that's better! Good Afternoon, Othersillies... I suppose you're wondering why I've called you all here... Well, I am somewhat relieved and chuckling. Spoke to DS this morning about his school project involving bulging zycomatics and maxillary notches. It is for a poster he has to make about the austalopicethis, an ancient homonid (250+ yrs....

    Whoa...it's very odd. Amanda, you have no one to divert your attention and make the time speed by, and I am leaving to teach another class. C'mon, somebody...Richard, get on here and keep Amanda company while I'm out. Susie, can you watch Amanda for me? I'll only be a couple of hours...
  11. elye
    Yes, but it's only SIX DAYS AWAY, Amanda! How can you concentrate at work? You'll just have to keep coming on here...I find nothing else that makes the time whip by like sitting here, fraternizing with the cohorts who really matter!
  12. elye
    ...And a maxillary notch? ... Maybe even more...compelling(?)...I don't know how to describe my reaction to that one. I need to ask my son about this assignment--I don't think David Hasselhoff 101 begins until middle school.
  13. elye
    Now I'm worried...WHAT is a bulging zycomatic? And perhaps most importantly, will there be one in the hottub at our honeymoon party?
  14. elye
    Well, Silliests, Off to my birthday dinner @ The Outback, but felt I had to share with you some information that I was met with when I sat down at our laptop. My son's grade five assignment material is on the desk here, where he is looking things up. He has carefully printed on the one page of notes: -Less convex and bulging zygomatics, and more vertically...

    Now, we need to give Ol' DL some benefit of the doubt...that ever-present twinkle in his eye is more than Godly worship--it's the flickering of a terrific sense of humour. If he were on our forum, I'm certain he would be typing crazily to finish my organ thought. After all, remember how he partied that evening and...oh...Janet, you weren't there. You missed...
  16. elye
    ...No organs? Oh, boy...I dare not....

    Whooooaaa!! Open Original Shared Link So....is that going to be, in fact, the Dalai Lama speaking? Or perhaps, someone else?....International media will be there...Get ready for some worldbreaking news...
  18. elye
    Amanda, I'm there! I'll have my tape measure for that yeti...wait...perhaps he won't need an inseam measurement for a bathing suit...
  19. elye
    ...Er....Smart as a gizzard?
  20. elye
    RIGHT YOU ARE, TOM! Gawd, how could I have made this error?? Actually, it's worse than that: I made TWO errors....Bert Lahr did NOT sing those lines. Ray Bolger did. It's the age thing! Not as sharp, memories blurring...stupid birthdays! I'm afraid there's no denyin', I'm just a dandelion, A fate I don't deserve,(or desoive), I'd be brave...

    You guys inspire and incite me... A Thousand Thank Yous for noting my birthday. I'm so glad I have young kids, otherwise I would just grumble my way through the rest of them, trying to ignore the relentless passage of time. Cannot do that with children--they put HUGE circles around it on every calendar, force DH to arrange a big dinner, and on and on...

    Gad....I hope he was praying........

    Since we all intimately know and love Superweasel, "she" can justifiably be used, here... Sigh...wish we had Whole Foods up here. Would love to drop DH off just about anywhere for a beer and game-watching. Wait...I drink wine...and I watch more games than he. Where can he drop me off?

    Wait a minute, wait a minute...my dad was at our party with us, portraying the Dalai Lama. Unless...now, wait, I'm confused...maybe that really WAS the Dalai . Oh, Gawd...I kept calling him a crazy old fart. Ah, so that pained expression wasn't just some really convincing emoting on Dad's part. Naaaah, it had to have been my dad. Old Tibetian monks...
