Bernie your post is hysterical! I am also completely addicted and am out there getting others addicted too! Well, in my good friend Nonie's defense, we wouldn't have had the pleasure of meeting you two wonderful people and many more if it wasn't for TOTV. You've met my husband, so you know he's in a zone of his own. LOL He plays Bridge on computer (addicted to it) and I chat or post on TOTV so it all works out. Although I will admit I have heard my drama queen daughter sigh on the other end of the phone when I say "hold on just a minute, let me finish this post!" ;D I can't explain the phenomenon. Other than good chats, good debates : good information, good laughs and great friends.

Bernie, I'm sorry I write such long posts. It really has to make you flinch when Nonie mentions me as an excuse. Sorry it's caused scorched clothing. (How do clothes get scorched in the dryer anyway?)

I'm addicted too.* As soon as I get home from work I check to see what has been posted and to make sure I haven't missed anything exciting.* Then later I go to see who is in chat and if I'm not too tired I check-in there.* Sometimes even when I'm tired I go in anyway and start posting and end up waking right back up again.* I feel I know some of the people on TOTV and I haven't even been to Crispers yet.* One of these times we'll be there when the group meets.*

Would hipnosis help with all our adictions? Does anyone know how to shut off the hours spent on TOTV, seriously! My wife says it is getting too high!

red,

Hubby says his underware is too tight because of me being on TOTV and letting the dryer run too long. Lets see ,Im sure there are other things I can be blamed for because of TOTV! :

Your phone is inging -- no that BF who lost her r's

Sincerely -- I do understand the new friends we've made thanks to the bonds of TOTV.
Bernie - Fireboy left at the end of February for Canada and I just noticed two days ago that he was gone!! You're lucky that at least Nonie is still making toast for you, burnt or not.

TOTV has been a great way to meet you all and form new friendships. I am so grateful to the Administrators who came up with the concept. :#1:

Nonie -- make a deal with him ... you'll let him buy new shorts and you'll cut down on PMs to no more than 20 a day and he can't complain about TOTV addictions or we'll help you REALLY shrink them.

Bernie, some things in life are a tradeoff. I bet Nonie smiles more now. I know we're all enchanted with her giggle. You wouldn't have that pleasure at least 7 times a day if it weren't for TOTV. Nor would you have the chance to go to such wonderful gatherings as Hyacinth's St. Paddy's Day party and the TOTV get together. Sometimes you just have to give a little to get a little.

Hi Bernie,

I think you are a very nice person, understanding, considerate, warm, friendly and with a good sense of humor. What I do not understand is why you can not do the things that you are suggesting your sweet, wonderful, lovely, compassionate, delightful and devoted wife should do.

We are addicted to each other - we now have Sistahs that need our attention and help. That is what being a Sistah is all about.

Of course there is one easy solution to the items you stated - hire a butler and a maid. That way all problems will be resolved.

So my dear Bruddah - you now know what you need to do. As your new Sistah I would like to mention I also need a butler and maid.

See ya soon.

Sistah Hyacinth Bucket
