I was determined to be nice to Dusty - well no new members to the Dusty Fan Club for a week, yet another significant birthday come and gone - then she throws in this.

Are you brave enough for a winner takes all vote?

I vote for me

Robert 1 Dusty 0
 
Fine and dandy hun. Night time here and I am watching the sky flash and listening to the air rumble.

Wbu?
 
How neat! Love lighting storms. Freezing my tush off, as was up at 4:30 am tending animals. Other than that doing ok, thx. Muah may you have a great night! - hugs-
 
Well that could be a possibility Robbie if I assume the air rumbling is Mr. Kat farting.

Thanks Angel. :hug: Nearly turn in time for me so Robbie can let his guard down...for now.
 
Dang, go away for one day and I have no idea what is going on. I can't even find my last post on here. Wish there was an easy way to do that then I could read to catch up. Hope everyone is doing well. I'm winning so naturally I am just fine. :)
 
Hi Ryan,there is a post number on the top righthand side,so that might be useful.But I have trouble catching up sometimes too.You're more or less on the same time zone as everyone,so it's probably easier for you....................winner

IT'S ALL IN FUN WITH ROBERT!!! This forum is about fun and fooling around teasing one another, yet being warm and compassionate friends. We stand with each other when we are suffring. What she told me is between she and I and lets just let this go now. Because it's not what this forum is for!!! OK?:thumright:

I'm still here, I have recently lost me 3 yr old nephew and I lost my mom last month but that's not why I'm looking at headstones...
I am a unemployeable disabled vet and I got retired out of Marines at 27
Well I got bored after 2 yrs of no work so I found a company that would pay me under the table doing security for some casinos here, they get robbed a lot cause there technically not allowed in Texas...
It's just something to do and get out of the house and make a little extra cash plus I get to carry and handgun and shotgun so that's just cool all by itself!!
Past two nights I've been doing security at a 50 acre cemetery that has been getting vandalized... I'm here from 6pm to 6am so I walk around and read headstones all night with my flashlight, it's very interesting right now cause we have a big storm going right now so that adds to the thrill!!

I am very sorry for your losses...

Ah ...... looking forward to a great Saturday! Did I miss anything overnight?

The newspaper has a free Frank Sinatra Christmas CD today - now you're talking!

We have his greatest hits CD and it is awesome Robert. You should get it!:ysmile:
 
I love Sinatra,but I'm not into Christmas songs much.Probably because we don't have Christmas here.....Don't mind a bit of Slade and Wizard but you can keep the shmaltzy stuff.

Sorry, just curious and it's such a joyful time to miss out on. To me it isn't the presents, it's the joy in lighting up a child's face and sharing special family and friends... :biggrin:Also, of course the religious aspect which should be the main focus, but isn't anymore.

Well Robbie, guess I've scared everyone away today!A price you pay for being a big mouth I guess!:ybiggrin: Sitting here with reddish blonde hairdye in my hair. We'll see Carol if hubs notices the change. I doubt it. Did yours ever? He probably will notice when the grey starts to come back thru!!!

I got tired out Mr. shark. He reminded me of a couple of attorneys I used to work for. (There were also good ones, like the first one I worked for was outstanding.)
Do you know how the first attorneys for to America? The first one swam and the rest walked across on the dead fish.

hi Sandy, when i used to put that i beat some one on here, i used to get told off by those living up above (USA), because they thought i was beating them over the head with something. different countries, different sayings.

we did? I'm sorry! shame on us! are you sure it wasn't our roll over em competitive spirit? (I guess that says a lot). We are very competitive, but don't want to do so at the "beating them over the head" feeling, by any country, culture.

I'm so sorry.

ive found when someone from down under says something, such as the beating thing, they get growled at, yet when its someone above saying it, we accept cultural differences and let it slide. as this thread is monitored i dont think anyone should be tellin anyone off, leave it for the super mods.
one word used lots on here is (rooting) bad word here.just my 2 cents worth. now for my win.

I've noticed you've been reserved lately, Trev, and I've wondered why. If I've offended anyone, and I'm sure I have because I often don't understand cultural differences like I should, and sometimes don't know where the line is with "friendly bantering" (I know some people think I've crossed this line, and I apologize to ALL, sincerely, I know feelings get hurt both ways, or all ways for those who are left uncomfortable - in fact after the fact, I've realized I've crossed that line), and I guess that is my point. We should all try to be respectful of each other when something gets uncomfortable. I appreciate the way you approached this, Trev. I appreciate Dusty's way of listening to my growling when I was in a bad mood and uncomfortable with her "ways" too.

I'm curious about the word "beating" Trev. Here in the US it has two meanings, like getting ahead or winning. It can also mean something like hitting, kicking, or punching. Do you use the word both ways? That may be something that has caused this problem.
As to the word "rooting," I appreciate that clarification. Here it means cheering for, or wanting to win, when used in a sports context. I think we should be careful, now, knowing that in when we want to use it and choose our words wisely.

As to the other matter, I understand both sides. I could state my opinions, but it won't do anyone any good. I'm just sorry there are "sides." I will just leave it at that. My two cents worth.

I hope that we in the US don't come across as we think we are better than anyone else, but it sounds like we do. For that, I am sorry too. The cultures from all over the world are unique and beautiful. I used to date a man from Turkey, and very much appreciated most of his culture. Still, partly cultural differences (and the fact that I discovered how crazy he really was) drove is apart. I still love part off that culture, that I would have never experienced before.

I hope this helps answer, Trev, at least my opinions on your concerns.

It's awfully hot in here. Would somebody turn on the air conditioner?

The Bee who hopes I don't sting too much
(and I caught that Dusty)
 
hi Sandy, it wasnt a personal attack on you or anyone else on here, just that we should ignor things said on here as they could have other meanings, and yes beat means the same here, so not sure why i was jumped on for using it in the same context as you used it. take care, Trev.
 
I didn't take it personally, Trev, just felt like explaining where I was. I'm not sure why you were jumped on for using that either.
 
I don't think we need to get too hung up on words guys. Lets face it, this is an adult forum that is here for fun so when things are said, whether we understand their complete context or not, we can be pretty safe in saying that they are said in jest and with a large degree of innocent innuendo. :wink:

There will always be words or phrases that some of us may be uncomfortable with because of those cultural and/or geographical differences but we move on safe in the knowledge that if those words are said then no malice is meant.

Everyone here is so fab and caring so lets all embrace our differences and similarities. After all, it is those very things that make this place so unique and interesting. :hug:

:cheerss:

Back on after much needed sleep. Walking around cemetery and I just came across 22 babies buried next to each other. I was reading their headstones and by the time I got to the 4th one I lost it and broke down crying! I picked myself up and regained my composure and visited the remaining with red watery eyes. Why does god need such young people? What did these innocent little people do to not deserve a chance at life? It hits me hard cause we just buried my sisters baby not to long ago so feelings are flowing. You know some of us might feel "punished" for our diseases but at least we're still living, they didn't even get a chance.

in my belief, they are the lucky souls. they dont have to go through this test before getting to go home to heaven. as for their families, well, i have lost 2 myself, one with my ex fiance, and one with my hubby. my hubby has lost 2 as well, one with his ex, and one with me. It is so hard on their families. but those little babies are at home with God and we will see them when we are brought home :heart:
still so very sad to see though

That's why I love fall and winter here, the air is a lot dryer. Summer time it's so sticky and nasty, you sweat just walking to car!
 
Actually, we're the looney bin. Stick around, and we'll make you crazy too. But hopefully you'll have a good time and realize that we do care about each other.
 
Nice try, but I won. I didn't do anything around the house today to claim my prize, but that is me.
 
Where did the day go to? I am finally sitting down with my feet up just before dinner. Been out and about but bought all the Christmas meat today! Got all overseas mail sorted and ready to post.

Need to find a bit more time in 24 hours :yfaint:

It's been great weather today. Time for a pre dinner win
 
Well, snow stopped. Still only 3° out though. And windy as ever. I biffed it pretty good! Ya know, I used to be pretty steady on my feet...not with all these meds tho. Mama T come back yet? Workin on your drawin angel. Would you like color interspersed into it? I don't do full color...you can see what I mean in some of the pics I posted. How is everyone tonight??? Yes, I did enjoy my first thanksgiving, though not like I will enjoy my second. First was with the inlaws, whome I love to death. But tje second is with my mom and sister (and my nephew who is my world) and we are very close
