What did I win? :dontknow: :dontknow: Why would you cry over a forum? There must be other issues in your life that are weighing you down. I hope they are soon resolved for you.
Each day we receive is a blessing to be savored. Save your tears for those things that really deserve them...those things that matter. This chatter doesn't matter for diddly-squat.

Thought I'd let you know that dead private parts were discussed a today's luncheon.
Muncle, were your ears burning??? Your joke got some extra mileage today.

[chelsea24]

Yes! But did his private part get extra mileage?

[samhass]

Did any of you look and Handies post on the spinning woman? that was pretty interesting. It was indeed a right brain/left brain exercise. I posted something I found on the net about it.
It was curious to me that in the AM my right brain was at work and in the PM it was the opposite. I wonder how that would translate to brains in the work place in terms of productivity. I find that fascinating.

Interesting thoughts re workplace, Sam. I found that if I scrolled up to it was counter clockwise, clockwise when I scrolled down. Time of day hasn't seemed to affect it.

So, what did you find out? Inquirng minds (and nosy witches) want to know.

[samhass]

You have to look at his thread to see the post re left/right brain.

[Rokinronda]

My left brain isn't working. Now I have an excuse!

[chelsea24]

Don't worry Ronda, my left brain isn't working either. And my hubby's right brain isn't working, so together we probably make a perfect fit. Nuts and Nuttier! ;D

Has anyone seen Johnny and Barbara??? Johnny..are you out there???

[renielarson]

Johnny and Barbara are out here but very busy getting their new house in order. Both were at Crispers but at 2pm and thought everyone had already left. They also have no computer with them so only pick up their emails at Savannah.

Thanks Bright, we were getting concerned. Good to know they are involved in happy exciting things.We all know how time consuming getting settled can be, but it sure is a happy busy isnt it?

Hi everyone, we are back in NJ. Sorry we missed you Sam. We did get so much done and had a great time while we were there. Thanks for thinking of us.

Sam, Gracie want to talk to you about Koi.
For some reason, :dontknow: she is hijacking my Canadian luncheon thread with talk of fish. Not sure of the connection ... perhaps she is meaning to offer up her Koi as an appetizer for our Canadian luncheon.

[samhass]

Bare, that is sheer sacrilege. These are koi. They are special. The baby koi I have now are alive because of me. Their Mom came in from Japan. I had a good idea of when she would spawn so I built a small rock walled pool in the pond. When she spawned and I saw a big male cover the eggs, I swooped in and gathered (some of) the eggs before they became fish food. I fed them boiled egg yolk after they hatched. We bonded. Koi are very social fish. They will eat from your hand. When they see you approach they come swimming up. They know a handout is at hand!
My pond is in Pa. I won't have one here. I don't wish to spend that much time on upkeep anymore.

Sam this reminded me of my beloved black and tan cocker spaniel, Bubba Lou Cole. When Bouvier (my 16 yr old blind and deaf spaniel) gave birth every other pup was breach. Pup #1 was Bubba. He was still born. I ran around the house screaming and praying for help. Instinctly I covered his whole snout with my mouth and sucked! 2 times and Bubba Lou was born! Bouv had 7 pups. 4 breach. PS I have a surprise for you! I sketched your view from the avatar. I left a tree out as it would have been unbalanced and would loose its flow. 1 too many happy trees per Bob Ross!! LOL
