I guess I should have read further.. :ohdear:

I know, I've been NOTHING but a bad girl today and you weren't around to stop me. Now Nucky's probably mad at me for practically making him pee himself over my NOTHING gift. And to make things even worse God struck my internet dead.......

When we went to church this morning I forgot my phone and even though I don't use it in church and actually put it on mute the thought of not having it was NOTHING but all I could think about. I think there's a lesson there I need to work on.

When you figure it out, let me know. I think I NOTHING but need to learn the same lesson. It used to be only getting snowed in caused me cabin fever-like anxiety. Now it's when I can't find or forgot my cell phone, the internet's down, or God forbid the Keurig machine quits working - lol. Talk about feeling so dependent on a bunch of NOTHING.

Nucky 05-12-2019 07:34 PM

Just finished watching NOTHING but The Green Book! Wow! What a great movie. Lot's of feelings.

The car was RED so the DEERS could see you tooling down the road. Besides when you get down to the Earthly Promised Land I think a MINI COOPER Covertriple would be a great car for you.

You were on the lamb when I got my Ultra Magnificent Keurig Turbo Coffee Maker Complete with a Lifetime supply of Pacific Bold K-Cups. I am going to hook it up to brand new plumbing so I never have to bother filling the water tank. I'm very serious about coffee. The only thing that may goof me up a little is WAWA is opening just outside The Gate Of Golf Cart Controversy over on this side of Our Little Paradise.

It's a thrill to surprise the Wifey with new cars, I've done it twice. It was a VW Bug around 1999 & a 2003 Pepper White & Black Roof Mini. Felt great. It is better to give than receive. But enough time has passed and I'm ready to receive now! Just kidding! :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl: There will be a Yugo in the garage tomorrow.

Abby10 05-12-2019 07:46 PM

Hubby and I NOTHING but loved Green Book too. Lot of feelings is right and the fact that it was based on a true story always makes a movie extra-special. We could relate to the Italian family scenes and interactions. After the holiday scene when they showed all of the family around the table and everyone was talking at the same time and the noise level was LOUD, I turned to my husband and said "Gee it feels like we just visited with your family" - lol.

When a movie can make you both really laugh and cry, it's a good one in my book.

Abby10 05-12-2019 08:04 PM

So everything just died in our house. Well, no people, but all of a sudden everything just went totally black. Sure glad hubby just got home a bit ago. Never heard the power go out so quietly as it just did.......very eerie.....like in a scary movie or something. I mean it just went from light to pitch black. See, if I didn't have my cell phone right now, I'd have NOTHING!

See there was a reason I was having NOTHING but a panic attack without it. Hope your power comes back on soon.

Abby10 05-12-2019 08:13 PM

Since it sounds like the power might not be restored until tomorrow sometime, I guess I better say NOTHING more and sign off to conserve some power on this thing. Good night everyone!

You got it! Thanks for stating it in such a way that others reading this thread can easily understand how simple it is to post here. That's the reason you will notice this thread going in many different directions topic-wise because it all boils down to much ado about NOTHING.

:welcome: luperona9! Don't make yourself a stranger around here.

While we're on the subject of NOTHING, I might as well take the time to add that this thread originated in the political forum when the proverbial you-know-what was hitting the fan over there. It was an attempt by a small group of us, headed by the Kommander of course, to show that no matter our political persuasion or personal backgrounds (as we were all different as night and day), we could all exist under one roof without turmoil or slinging mud at one another. When the P-forum was shut down, the thread was Kommandeered over to this forum so as to keep it going. So now you know the rest of the story......

Funny you should say that. When we were at church yesterday, my son and I ran into a long-time family friend of ours who when we began exchanging stories about what we've all been up to said to us, "When you guys (meaning me, my husband and son) get involved in something you never do it half-way, you're all in." So I guess that goes for NOTHING but breaking things too. I mean it took me all day with lights going off and on, internet flickering to its death, to finally put it all down before going to bed - lol. Then when I woke up this morning, here it is, all back on. Oh happy day! :clap2:

Abby10 05-13-2019 04:35 AM

We may hit that next NOTHING goal today! :a040: Hope I'm around for the celebration and not busy at work when it happens.

So happy your power is back on. Maybe you should test out the BMW to make sure NOTHING happened to it. :1rotfl:

Nucky 05-13-2019 07:11 AM

ABBY, Your power went out for one of two reasons yesterday. Choice #1 - The plug to your house was pulled out when the Beemer was exiting the garage. Choice #2 your neighbor Mrs. McGillicuddy 1/8 of a mile down on the right past the house with the Cow Shaped Mailbox plugged in her Hmm Hmm Device! Just keeping it clean. This is a family type thread!

Later today either 3 or 4 O'clock is the Doctor Appointment. Gotta have Faith and High Hopes and whatever it is let's get down to business.

That must be NOTHING but the hair dryer.

Does the posting participation in this thread make any sort of statement about the level of thought in The Villages? :a040:

Hoping that it is NOTHING and that it can be easily remedied. I think you need to determine if it is 3 or 4 o'clock though :icon_wink: it kind of makes a difference.

Yupper, it all amounts to, you guessed it, NOTHING!

FW I guess the time sorta matters but only to us because this particular Doctor uses the Appointment time as a Ballpark Figure. Its cool because he is very Thorough.

A place like Lake Eye who did a fine job should make their appointments AM or PM. Their Motto is just wait, We'll get to Ya! :1rotfl:

Anything but Thanks for NOTHING for the history.

History is important so newcomers don't forget the path and sacrifices made by the brave people that came before, perhaps a monument is in order to this wonderful small group of people that started the threat.

They may not be with us forever. Please tell me, who are these brave originators that were so forward thinking to create this Haven for all of us despite our political allegiance?

I assume you are a founder Abby. Thank you for your service.

This was NOTHING but Kenswing's doing but he had a lot of help. He is some kind of manager of a forest fire fighter group in the State of WA. I am a law librarian put out to pasture at age 32 or so.

According to Marie Kondo this is what you say before you get rid of things that do not bring you joy. NOTHING here that qualifies though.

Glad you got your power going again, Abby..

See, nagging really does NOTHING but work - apparently the power company doesn't like it either. :1rotfl: J/K of course, I signed off from here and fell fast asleep. What else is there to do?

More like kicked out because I did not like the attitudes towards survivors/victims of crimes in law schools and law libraries in the US but things have changed partly due to my really making a big stink and drawing everyone I could think of into the fight. I based my criticisms on my own experiences trying to help my fellow Earl Wooster HS (Reno, NV) students deal with murder investigation of some of fellow students connection with an English teacher whose daughter was murdered on 2-24 in 1976 near the University of Nevada, Reno. This was not "solved" until 1979. The murder was covered very heavily in the Northern Nevada press. 2-24 is also my birthday. And not for NOTHING.

I was in with probably the most powerful group of law librarians in 1991. I lost the kind of game of thrones. I wanted to put survivors/victims of crimes on the throne so to speak. No two victims/survivors of crimes I have talked to are the same though. But I really wanted to get them the most practical information available to make them the most educated and well connected they could be.

There have been a lot of changes since 1991 though.

I hope positive changes. It seems NOTHING less than a Noble act.

It's an interesting story. Is there more written about it?


But yet a meticulous librarian should never NEVER forget NOTHING. [emoji6]

Well that is NOTHING but true.

It is all over my Facebook page and I have mentioned it to the point of being quite annoying on Talk of the Villages for years. I use my birthday of 2-24 and my number is a 17 week study on stress on the unemployed I was in as subject #613 in late 1992-1993 at the University of California, San Francisco Health Sciences Campus. I showed the interviewer a lot of the documents and such. I was kind of trying to get a date with her even if I was driving in from the Santa Rosa- Petaluma, CA area to San Francisco.

Here is something from August 2015 on Talk of the Villages. https://www.talkofthevillages.com/fo...roject-158897/

And I have communicated about it with hundreds of thousands of people since 1991. I have tried to pull in people from multiple disciplines-- social workers, nurses, physicians, lawyers, Hollywood studio executives, writers, journalists, teachers, victim/witness assistance providers, etc.
