Good Morning, Everybody!

2. G'morning, Clint!
I'm doing fine this morning. It's cold here in Minnesota, and only getting colder by the day, but I'll be okay. :)

I just need to buy me a fleece blanket within the next week or so.

I did read Skinner's thread and I'm excited about the new changes. Seems like this website will be getting pretty exciting in the coming months (not like it's not exciting all ready, cuz it is!). :)

5. Hello, hello Fox!
See...I don't like the cold...that's why I moved down here to Florida. Fall weather all winter long!

You're right about how good DU is now...and the proposed changes will be even better...and that's saying something!

11. I am doing ok
my cold is under control - I think. stayed home yesterday so I wouldn't spread the germs and it helped a bit. Still sniffling but it got better for sure.
Tomorrow after work I will be on my way to Potsdam (which is near Berlin) to the birthday of my grandmas. That means tonight I have to do my packing. I have not the slightest idea what to take with me.

23. Oh well, I will check my closet tonight
and decide on how I feel. It will be the right choices I am sure. Jeans most of the days, just on the b-day itself something more elegant.

Glad to hear that you are doing better also :hug:

6. Good morning, Clintmax!
How are you? I love Skinner's idea about the "Journal" page. His ideas are fantastic, and I'm already thinking of what the body of my journal will be like. I'm very impressed with his new ideas.

I skimmed over that thread. I look forward to the journal feature.

I love how they are always upgrading this site...unlike Freak Repugnant and their same old ugly ass site.

36. Oh, good-
I'm wide awake, thanks to my kitten, Sophie. She leapt on me this morning and meowed loudly into my ear. She wanted to play fetch, because she really believes she's a puppy.

45. Thank you! Here's what she plays fetch with-


It's her favorite toy. She has several dozen of them, but I won this strange creature at the state fair, playing darts. It looks like it has a tumor growing out of its neck, doesn't it? My best friend and I laughed our butts off when the game operator handed it to us. I knew Sopie would love this odd, misshapen thing! :D

50. That's the beauty of it, it's so damned pitiful-
I'd already won 2 "legitimate" stuffed animals before that, and this third was such an aberration I had to keep it for Sophie. She adores it.

55. *tickle tickle*
When my mum was looking after a cat for a friend, it loved things on the end of a piece of string, as most cats do. One day I was running up and down the room dragging a piece of string behind me, and the cat would hide under one of the chairs and pounce on the end every time it went past. My brother saw me doing this for about five minutes and said,

"dude, you're getting more exercise than the cat."

Hey, I skimmed through your "rant" thread before I posted, and I just gotta say...you were NOT wrong, Dude! The freakin Christians think they are so persecuted...they need to step into the shoes of someone in the Jewish faith if they want to know what religious persecution is.

If I ask you to bug TJ, you're all too ready for that.
When I promise to be your sex slave, that just gets ignored!
(Yes, I know you're happily married but a gentleman would have at least acknowledged the offer even while rejecting it!)

If I didn't like you so much I'd put you on ignore, since I do like you so much I'm just gonna sulk.

I'm excited about the journals. Sounds like a great plan.

Keeping us off of level 3 during the 2006 elections will also be welcomed :)

61. Bidding will be open from 10/08-10/15
A number of DUers will have masks on display, and the proceeds will benefit victims of Katrina (particularly those 4 DUers whose homes were lost). You should see threads about it very soon.
