On another note, who would have ever thought W would be in charge of law and order? Only in NOTHINGVILLE. Maybe it has something to do with the new Avatar.



Speaking of avatar’s, your’s dear Madam is still NOTHING.

Tit for tat......I was just trying to prove the point that NOTHING is impossible in NOTHINGVILLE.

In the meantime, I have been considering the avatar thing. I have a pic I'd like to post but I have to find it. But for right now I need to get upstairs and get packing.......see y'all later!

Call the NOTHING fire department - this thing's on fire!! We may have to recruit fw's husband unless we have any volunteer firemen on board. Wages are the same either way, of course.

NOTHING but a man of many talents! How did us NOTHINGS get so lucky to have you around?

Oh, wait a minute, you're the one who started this whole thing. Well, on that note, I guess you're just stuck with us - ALL or NOTHING.

Kenswing, have you by chance ever missed a NOTHING and if so who busted yo butt on dis? Inquiring minds want to know. And the other day there was a reference to the first NOTHING thread. Anything to dat or is it NOTHING. Was this alive and disbanded?

OK so I was following the tread about Turners vs Rose Plantation and I have to admit that I had to Google half the terms. Did you know that a corking fee is actually the amount of money a restaurant charges to bring in your own bottle of wine? I feel like NOTHING but a country bumpkin and yet I have traveled to dozens of countries on 3 continents.

I do the same senseless NOTHING but B.S. to people who bring Champiple to my house. $10 only because it’s a twist off cap. I don’t get it either fw but it cool to read about. Just not our thing.

Our twentieth anniversary was this past April and it was at The Rose Plantation. You know me long enough now that I’m not showing off. It was reasonable, not nuts $$$, that ship has sailed. I’m happy for those that enjoy the finer places, why not if that makes them happy.

I’d like a new route in the Golf Cart for a ride and a nice Ice Coffee from DD’S. Peace Out.

Our closing up north fell through 3 times. When it finally closed we went to Arnold Palmer to celebrate and had a coupon for a free bottle of wine. It had the Arnold Palmer label on it so we brought it home and dated and now proudly display it. Most of the time we have chateau whatever comes out of a box. I am NOTHING but cheap.

If I have ever forgotten a NOTHING it has never been proven. I'm not saying it's never happened, but I doubt that it has. I've come close to missing a few times but was able to reach the edit button before anyone caught me. :throwtomatoes:

The Original NOTHING thread was established in the Political Forum. It served a purpose there as this thread serves its purpose here.

Join the club......NOTHING but cheap NOTHINGS here too. Or if not that, the deal of the century. My husband is a researcher and negotiator. Not the hard nose kind, but the kind where they end up liking him so much he ends up getting more than he asked for. He actually has people ask him to go with them when they purchase stuff.

When my son was little, while I was busy reading him the usual children's stories, not so my husband. For Christmas one year my mother bought my husband the book "The Art of the Deal" which everyone is certainly aware of now, if they weren't before. So, killing 2 birds with one stone, my husband read it to my son. As a toddler my husband was teaching him about earning interest and at 4 years old my son asked Santa for a MAC card (now ATM, of course) for Christmas. At the age of 12, my husband took my son to a flea market and let him set up a table to sell his "wares". Some Jersey people will be familiar with it, the big one in Berlin, NJ. After that, my son took off, negotiating everything even grades at school. :ohdear: It all paid off though especially with the uncertainty of the job market for these millenials because he already pretty much has his retirement package in hand with his investments in real estate.

You can see I had NOTHING to do with any of that. Maybe there was something I added to his upbringing......:undecided:
