Some of my favorite feel good moments were after 9/11. No Political Talk. I Love our Country!

As well you should we are a great nation. NOTHING more to say.

Ok, fw, I do have a funny overseas story. My son, my sister-in-law, and I were in a shop in France looking for gifts to take home. The shopkeeper did not seem to be too amused to have 3 Americans in the store who didn't even know what we were looking for. After a period of time and feeling a bit uncomfortable we decided to exit. In our rush and nervousness, 2 out of 3 of us forgot want country we were even in as one said good-bye in Spanish, the second in German, and the third finally in French. Not sure if the shopkeeper thought we were all nuts or what, but we sure got a laugh out of it once we realized what had happened.

I totally agree let's get this party started because we are NOTHING but just for fun!

We all want Abby to have NOTHING but fun while she is here so let's share some of our favorite fun activities for her to try. I think the Mt Dora Canal boat trip is fun with lunch and shopping in the quaint town.

Before I forget I wanted to thank you, fw, for posting this even though the guys thought I would enjoy more adventurous activities :shocked:. I haven't done the boat trip per se, but did cruise around with a friend of mine in his boat through the canal and over to Mt Dora for lunch. Also drove there once to check out the shops, etc. I appreciate the reminder because next time I come down with some girlfriends that would be NOTHING but a great thing to do with them.

Yeah they weren't too cooperative. I was really hoping I might learn something also it was NOTHING but an ulterior motive.

Bury a couple of those eggs. They turn Black and taste like it sounds but I think it’s a delicacy in S Korea. Thousand year eggs! Yuck!

Know NOTHING about the eggs and Korea,but they are. Delicacy in China. I’ve had them. My Chinese manager say you only eat a bit at a time. NOTHING was truer.

BTW, I think I read they are preserved in lime, not soil. I think China is the most advanced in preserving food.

Are you looking for a Nothing theme song?

We have one, but maybe we should take this into consideration and take a vote. Good find for NOTHING, tomwed!

NOTHING could have made me happier than hearing that the Thai kids have been found alive and well and NOTHING better than hearing that an American rescue group found them!

I was NOTHING but happy to learn this as well.

Kenswing 07-04-2018 05:18 PM

I thought it was a couple of British cave divers that found them.. NOTHING in the news is reliable these days..

Kenswing 07-04-2018 05:22 PM

And where are my manners? A hearty welcome to NOTHING, Madelaine Amee.. :welcome:

I read it was the Thai navy seals but it doesn't matter as long as they were found and are alive. I guess it is going to be NOTHING but difficult though getting them out.

I love lime but I'm still not eatin' it.......no way, NOTHING, yuck!!

So didn't come to airport until an hour later because I got a text that flight would be an hour late. No problem. Sittting here for the past hour, now finding out it will be 3 hours late! NOTHING but fun, fun, fun especially if it's a plane full of cranky kids headed to Disney. Heck, I might be cranky by then!

Lots of people from many nationalities seem to be working on solving this problem and approaching it from every angle. NOTHING but proud of their working together.

I used to like to fly but now it has become such a hassle that I try to avoid it if I can. I want to plan some road trips for a change. We did this a few years back through AZ and NM and had nothing but fun.

Look at the bright side, it gives you 3 more hours to do NOTHING with us..

Kenswing 07-04-2018 07:28 PM

It sounds like NOTHING but WWIII here and it's still 4 hours before it gets dark..

I totally agree. Road trips are NOTHING but fun especially if you're not on a tight schedule. When I'm fully retired, hubby and I will probably travel back and forth to TV by car and make overnight stops along the way visiting family and sightseeing.

I still like to fly even though it keeps getting more inconvenient. Plus there's NOTHING that can make me walk to Australia next year.. lol

True. And even when I get there, although everybody else will probably be in bed by then, I can still do NOTHING with you. The only good part about you being on the left coast....lol

Come out to our lake. They take their fireworks NOTHING but seriously. It doesn't hurt when there is an Indian reservation about 5 miles away that sells everything from sparklers to mortars..

Cool..... I love fireworks, especially if they're really good. No wonder it sounds like a war going on around you though. I can hear fireworks going on outside the airport but I see NOTHING. :(

Yeah, some of these people spend some big bucks on fireworks.. And they'll be going strong until at least midnight.

The two cities nearest us banned fireworks this year so a LOT of people are at the two county parks that are on the lake. It's going to look like fireworks on the National Mall tonight. NOTHING but spectacular until I want to sleep.. lol

Denying your appetite will only make you hungrier. It was meant to be, the King & Queen of NOTHINGVILLE. This is a natural progression, first the tribal chiefs form a loosely held nation of NOTHINGS, then the tribes begin to bicker among themselves striving for superiority. This can not be sustained. What are we to do ? A monarchy seems to be the solution. One nation held together by a King & Queen. I have to admit, I saw it coming, just didn’t know when. Please allow me to serve within the castle walls in whatever capacity you deem. I’ve lived among the peasants, not very pleasant.
