Good morning you bunch of NOTHING PEOPLES. I told you I was way overdue for a foul up, bleep or blunder. Let’s see if getting off this IPad does the trick? Time will tell.

I just got my report card from the boss for the last six weeks with NOTHING more than one to go. I’m in good shape so far. It’s NOTHING but the home stretch that counts. It ain’t over till it’s over.

Mrs Abby good luck with your scheduled meeting next week with E.F. Hutton, lol, I hope you guys have the tide going with you. NOTHING but 15% Interest accounts in a certain Island Account. Only problem is the Interest is paid in NOTHING but Coconut’s. Things will work out. Better tighten up that wager before you bust out the good news.

When E.F. Hutton talks, people listen, NOTHING more to say.

Same thing for me. When FW speaks I’m all ears. NOTHING but lucky to have you all to keep me in line and off the Island permanently. Gotta check on Mary Ann. I forgot again.:1rotfl:

I'm working on a mini-series about the exciting life of a Villager. The title for the first episode is "I heard a Knock on the Door and it Turned Out to be Nobody Holding Nothing." Right now I'm just working on the titles.

You guys need to all go take a nap. I am getting NOTHING done!

Abby10 08-17-2018 01:40 PM

Holy Smokes! You guys are having a blast on here today. Well, here's something I just got from a friend that is perfect for NOTHING. Ironically, my husband just sat down with me yesterday to explain this deep thinking phenomenon in retired men, so even more apropos for my situation. And here I thought he was just making an excuse for doing NOTHING instead of what I thought he should be doing.......

It's entitled, "RETIRED MEN-----DEEP THINKERS???"

I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so I sat down and had a cold beer.

The day was really quite beautiful, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking.
My wife walked by and asked me what I was doing, and I said, "NOTHING."

The reason I said "NOTHING" instead of saying "just thinking" is because she then would have asked, "About what?"
At that point I would have had to explain that men are deep thinkers about various topics, which would lead to other questions.
Finally I pondered an age old question: Is giving birth more painful than getting kicked in the nuts?
Women always maintain that giving birth is way more painful than a guy getting kicked in the nuts, but how could they know?
Well, after another beer, and some more heavy deductive thinking, I have come up with an answer to that question.
Getting kicked in the nuts is more painful than having a baby, and even though I obviously couldn't really know, here is the reason for my conclusion:
A year or so after giving birth, a woman will often say, "It might be nice to have another child."
But you never hear a guy say, "You know, I think I would like another kick in the nuts."
I rest my case.

Time for another beer. Then maybe a nap.

I let my hair grow for the first time in 10 years since July 1st. Flowing locks of multi color hair that I couldn’t stand. Just back from the Barbershop and look like Uncle Fester or One Butt Cheek.

I will let you know tomwed. I have a feeling you and me together may include NOTHING but bail! :1rotfl::mademyday:

What numeric age must one be to be an Owl or are we talking street smarts?

Abby10 08-17-2018 03:17 PM

Since I have to go to my paid job tomorrow, I must finish my NOTHING work today. So here is your priority list, Kommander, for your return home tomorrow -

1) NOTHING, NOTHING, no NOTHING comes before your wife. Greet her, spend time with her before doing anything else because she missed you even more than NOTHING did. You might just want to stop by briefly to let us know you got home safe.

2) Get a good night's sleep.

3) After your morning coffee and a shout out to NOTHING, take a look outside and see if your massive NOTHING yard needs mowed. Hopefully someone else did that for you. If so, take the day off, rest, spend quality time with your better half.

4) Get a good night's sleep.

5) Check in with work, go in if you have to, and get yourself caught up. Then take a nap. Repeat if necessary.

6) Once all is in order both at home and work, you really have to deal with your massive NOTHING deficit. It is seriously in need of replenishment. If it goes much lower it may crash and burn leaving NOTHING left of NOTHING for us NOTHINGS.

Aside from this, it will be NOTHING but wonderful to welcome you back to the usual NOTHING routine. Whether or not all of us NOTHINGS are in one piece due to your absence is debatable, but we survived nonetheless. :welcome: home, :welcome: back to the fold.

And please take note, I really know how to use my NOTHING - lol

Joan Rivers tried to explain to men what childbirth felt like. She said, NOTHING more than imagine pulling your top lip over the top of your head to the back of your neck. It was a bit much for those times but Johnny Carson I think it was almost died laughing.

Funny stuff there Joan Abby!:popcorn:

fw102807 08-17-2018 03:49 PM

It will be NOTHING but great to have the Kommander back. It has been kind of a rough couple of weeks trying to fend for ourselves and keep track of our NOTHINGS. Glad Tom stepped up to the plate (I am always thinking of food) and a cameo appearance from Barefoot.

You are so right. We had NOTHING less than a little help from our friends. :)

K sure knows how to keep a ship steady. I think that's why he's NOTHING but missed when he's not here. He's our anchor.

I’m 55 year old single male currently looking to buy a place here. It really seems like a fun active community. Any good nightlife here? I also enjoy golfing.

Try posting in the general forum. You'll probably find NOTHING here.

Abby10 08-17-2018 04:37 PM

Does K have any idea all that I've dealt with while he's been gone?!? Thank goodness it all amounts to NOTHING, including any payment for it. :rolleyes:

Nucky 08-17-2018 04:53 PM

I know everything about the Nightlife as long as it’s B/4 9PM. Otherwise I know NOTHING.

WELCOME back #1. I want to protest a Violation I got when I had a fever cooking, probably should have been resting but was trying to keep things going, we were in an Ebb at that moment.

ONE WEEK TO GO!

Nucky was going above and beyond to keep NOTHING on track even while he was deathly sick. I vote for a raise and promotion for him also. More NOTHING for Nucky!

Thanks, fw. NOTHING but nice of you. I could do without the raise and promotion though unless K has something good to offer that I know NOTHING about.

You mean NOTHING isn't enough?

Abby10 08-17-2018 06:17 PM

I don't know if I'm going to make it tonight waiting for K to report in. I'm NOTHING but exhausted. I guess I shouldn't complain after all he's been through. We're supposed to get bad storms tonight too, so I feel like I'm going to relive his night last night losing sleep over the elements. Maybe I'll go to bed now. I'm not usually good for more than 4 hours at a time which would mean I'd wake up shortly after he gets in.

How about you, fw? It seems like you've been staying up late every night as well waiting to at least hear that he is okay. Is it messing with your regular bedtime schedule?

Now that's something to think about. NOTHING should certainly be more than enough, shouldn't it? I need to learn to be grateful for what I have and not always want for more. :pray:

NOTHING messes with my bedtime schedule NOT even NOTHING.

I just got back from seeing Christopher Robin. It was really good and there are so many quotes about doing nothing, and knowing nothing, and fixing nothing one would think I could remember at least one. So you will just have to see it yourself.

Wow, a NOTHING extravaganza! I'm just glad you came back to report instead of feeling like you've had enough of NOTHING for one day.

But then again, is that even possible - to have enough NOTHING? Somehow I think that's been discussed in NOTHINGVILLE before. It sounds like a former K and W scenario......

You'd be surprised how things change when you retire and remove the stress from your life. I try to block out the unpleasant people and situations so there is NOTHING to interfere with my sleep.

That is a movie I would like to see. Sounds like NOTHING but fun.

fw102807 08-17-2018 06:44 PM

Tom so nice that you are becoming a NOTHING regular. We will start paying you a salary of NOTHING please spend it wisely. You might even want to talk to EF Hutton.

tomwed 08-17-2018 06:57 PM

If you're an old softy you will sit in the theater with watery eyes and a runny nose and run out of the theater as soon as the lights come up so nobody sees nothing. Now if that sounds like you make a left to the exit door entering the parking lot and not a right into the lobby where there is a crowd inside and another outside.

Sounds like a good lifestyle change that I need to NOTHING but make. Thanks for the reminder as to how important it is not just for one's health but for one's overall well-being.
