So... Get your hubby's best bottle of Chateau Foo Foo Head '63, pour it down the sink, fill it with a nice Albertson's White Zinfandel, two drops of red food coloring, and one drop of blue, bring it into the room - carrying the wine glasses in that sexy two glasses in one hand way - and enjoy.

Love, A Bronco Fan ------------------------------------ A Bronco Fan, I'd point, laugh hysterically bent over, come up for air, squeeze out a "Whew!" and go back to laughing hysterically.

Who can I hide such a thing from my friends and even my husband??? Oh he tryies to hide it but I can see the pain and revusion in his eyes the few times I swirl the pink liquid in his Burgandy wine glass. -------------------------------------- So I guess you haven't told him about BJ"s either yet? You're walking a thin line Missy - think you better figure out your version of a demi-glaze for him. ;>

After that doesn'twork "fertabosslizer."

Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Dear Tickled in Topeka, Thank you so much, dear! But do be careful in expressing your admiration of me.

Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan Dear L & L -- I have a 3-part question: 1. I notice that Pixie Glitter has assumed the name of 'Litter' after much resistance. How did this happen? Am I the last person on Earth still referring to her as Pixie instead of Litter? b. There's a poster of LP who always makes me the butt of his jokes, and I'm helpless to stop him. I don't want to name names, so let's call him Rendofbb. What's a really good zinger I could throw his way? 3. My last question is, whenever I read this thread, I can hear the theme to 'The Odd Couple' playing in my head. I imagine you two living in a NYC apartment, dispensing advice while arguing. How can I stop the music from playing in my head, as well as the various radio stations I seem to pick up from time to time? Signed, Curious in Cali
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Dear Curious in Cali, First of all, referring to me as Litter is acceptable ONLY under the following circumstances: 1) within the confines of this one thread, and/or 2) if you are Lisann22. The explanation for why I allow Lisa and only Lisa to refer to me as Litter in places other than this thread is rather complex. But what it essentially boils down to is that, being a far bigger person than she is, I have decided to allow her to use this term because she derives such unholy glee from it, and being that bigger person, I like to make her happy, even though she devotes the majority of her waking hours to making my life a living hell. As for your problem with. .erm. . Rendofbb, perhaps it would help you to cope with him if you used the mantra I use daily in dealing with Lisann. Repeat after me: He's just jealous, he's just jealous, he's just jealous, and besides I'm cuter (in your case you might substitute "funnier") anyway. Question 3: take the aluminum foil off your head, dear.

Markedward what an excellent idea I will remember your advice ..I am a color tech and I didn't even think of that WOW....You are good. >>>So I guess you haven't told him about BJ"s either yet?<<<<< Ah yea well..umm , nope I haven't and I am not going to ever and neither are ANY of my friends..... in my house even just those letters put togeather are considered foreplay..

My question is should I just react with abject horror everytime I see this man?
Originally Posted By markedward 111 posts in just over fifteen minutes. Wow! That's amazing. Congrats. Here's my problem, Lala. I can call you Lala, right? I recently took on important duties in a certain new country. In that country, the Most Benevolent But Don't Mess With Her Just In Case Despot recently sent a certain individual to the dungeon. We'll call him "kdaynfrees". I'm worried whether I should say anything, as I've just gotten this big promotion, and you know how it is. But here's the problem. This country, we'll call it Aquatopia, is built on a coral reef that's only barely emerged from the ocean. I'm not sure, but I'm pretty confident that means that any basements, cellars, dungeons, etc., would be completely submerged in salt water. Should I mention this to someone? Or is it better to skip this particular problem and keep my concerns to myself until I'm more established?
Originally Posted By markedward By the way, if I remember water safety class correctly, a human can hold his breath in a dungeon submerged in salt water for up to a week. So no big hurry on the response. Wait a minute, did I take water safety? Or was it Play Dough safety? Whatever.

That way the innocent man is saved, and the germy one is sanitized by all that salt water. And I feel fairly certain even without consulting her that Lisann22 would concur with me on this matter--you many not call us Lala.
