Scattelogical ramblings and desultory humor - User's Guide

Can't believe we can't kill this thing!

I know. Can't say I haven't gotten this thread off track by getting it on track.

It's the Loosestrife of threads.

I wondered if anyone was ever going to post on it at all.

hi guys - sorry i'm late!
Tuve que terminar la tarea para mi clase español que es mañana.
Lo siento. Sé que algunas personas están molestado cuando escribo en español.
Estoy terminado.

I was still stuck on the other thread!! Good morning to all - no humor or ....... rambling here this morning!! (to lazy to go back and see how to spell the "s" word) Eleanor

Good morning, Eleanor.

I, for one, don't think this thread should 'die'. It's the one I visit first, most days, just to get my day started with a smile!!

How does everyone else feel about this thread?

There's nothing 'wrong' with it Candyce. It's just that it has become something totally different than what it started out as. It's pretty much the same as Water Cooler now. But that's okay too. We aim to please!

if you pull it, would it unravel?

Not mine.

If you're not standing in the corner please do so right now!

What a beautiful calendar. Nice to see some NE people represented there. Eleanor

Thanks for the link Pirl!

Wow - that was quick!

looks very well done also

A bit pricey, or is it just me being cheap?

I think $15 would have been a good price.

I didn't notice the price

Very nice, but a bit pricey.....how much is shipping on top of the price? I didn't get that far. Thanks for that link, Arlene!

expensive to me too...
but it looks nice.

Do you think it'll be cut by 50% the day after New Year's? That's when I usually buy my calendars.

I like buying the previous year's calender. Less uncertainty about what each date brings.

I like to leave my clocks alone all year instead of resetting them for the time changes. They're always on daylight saving time, and they give me pleasant surprises all winter. Every time I think I'm late for something, I remember I still have that extra hour.

I like that! I always say we should have two hours ahead in the warm months, one hour in the cool ones.

I do that too, leave the clocks alone---only problem is when the time changes and they are right, I'm still adding that hour and end up being late!!

i set my clocks varying degrees of ahead, so i'll always be afraid of being late and GET moving! mostly it works. but my cell phone sets itself. sigh.

Leap Year makes me ill. Takes about four years to recover.

I went to school with someone born on leap year(Feb.29), he's dead now - coincidence?

My father's cousin was also born on that date.

Who doesn't wear a watch, ever, besides me?

I like to feel the time, so don't ever count on me.

But using a calendar from the wrong year is really stepping out of the box.

Victorgardener, I could say meet me at three on Dec 2, which is a Sunday and I would show up at 4 and you would have shown up the previous day on a Sat. at 3. Random living. I like it. But it is sort of like liking Loose-strife, but knowing it is a bad enjoyment. Patti

Who needs predictability, Patti. And please, call me Victor!

That is predictable, how about Rivtoc? Patti

amethystsm...Hay que bueno ! Si no tienen libros de jardin en espanol, oprima DG !!!

Ha, Ha, Ha,... I gotta laugh...Let me get my umbrella before the gargoyles from Notre Dame do a fly-by...LOL!

JD: no sé "oprima." algunas personas aquí no se sienten felices el mes pasada cuando escribí en español. Pero siempre estoy buscando una persona para practicar español conmigo.
i have a test on esto miércoles on conditional, subjunctive, and my nemesis: OBJECT PRONOUNS (direct and indirect).
but i'd better stick to english here!
: )

I had a photo on the calendar but it was me twenty years in the future. It's good to know I'll get better.

oda ouya owkna istha anguagela?

Patti - neither DH nor I have worn a watch since we retired.

Watches are an endangered species in the cell phone age.

Dave, I think anyone who has kids knows that language!
