As is making snow angels.

Floccinavcinihilipilification.

You should probably see a doctor about that.

We are nearing 12,000.

Well then. 11808.

Fried green tomatoes,
dunk'em in an egg and cornmeal mix,
hot skillet,
hot sauce,
sour cream.

I wish I ate that good.

I ... don't even bother assembling my PB&J; spoon, PB, bread, jelly- instant satisfaction.

I will make a terrible gourmet chef.

marmalade jelly mixed with ginger,and soy-sauce,
is tasty on roast duck.

Oh my..11811...cool.

The Robert Frost made me cry.

It reminded me strongly of the Marquis de Sade.

& butchering cows.

Hello.

---NOT!!! but I love duck, my favorite fowl, at least of the ones I've tasted. Bye bye, I'm going to Joe's Duck House down in Chinatown to get me some Peking duck.

I have no idea why some of you guys are mixing up the numbers, but I got another one of those palindrone things 11and8and11

You guys made me do it ...I had to go hear Robert Frost read in his own voice ...about snow, no less

"Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" I found here http://www.salon.com/audio/2000/10/05/frost/

On the number mixup, let's imagine some intruiging story about what happened to
"the missing post numbers" written this cold Winter Day by a famous but anonymous Poet Lariat

one snowy cold night on TFP
as I arose to take a pee
I heard a creak in the upstairs rafters
it must be the ghost of lost post's laughter
there was a mixup in the numbers
ring thought she got the good one before slumbers
but alas we all realized by then
that badnick stole it, yet again

:hyper:

I cannot figure out where two posts went...
someone is playing with us...
my turn for the loo.

(EDIT) HaHaHaHa! My little imaginary friend who had become visible,
for two posts, many pages back, has been liquidated.

I am the one responsible for the number shift....

My apologies to all,
oh shoot.....that really messed up OCM's math for many pages.
I feel sad about that.

Where's the Twilight Zone music for the disappearing posts?

Morning all.

Wow...I need more coffee to answer that one...

The scent of coffee....yes..
good morning everyone.

less than 200!!!

11818

E.T., phone domicile.

i guess we're up to 11819 and the randomness never ends, so lets have fun before the day ends

Today is all about details...
on the phone, navigating many menus..
The lady at the agency was very pleasant,
all appears to be falling into place....

I am most happy.

This is not random, it is a thought out discourse that went through my mind this morning:
Our pet red eared slider turtle is still in semi-hibernation. We've had him for over 8 years, his shell was about 3 or 4" long when we got him, now he's almost 12" long. We worry about him a little, and check him often. My kids keep asking why he's not eating or moving much "dad, is he dead?" but he's done this for about the last 7 years or so, I believe it to be normal ...for a turtle named Franklin. Wake up soon, Frankin; we have good tasting bugs waiting for you. He loves to tear cicadas apart so when we catch one, into the tank it goes buzzing around and Franklin aggressively attacks; he seems to be the antithesis of slow and laid back, he's very aggressive when not hibernating so his chances of getting a job in those comcast commercials is zilch. Big earthworms are his favorite, we dig them out from under our cut grass/branches/weeds pile, plenty there for our fishing needs plus his dietary supplement.

Turtles are a readily evident masterpiece of design.

My sister and her children discovered a box turtle that
wandered into their yard some years ago,
they built an enclosure to house him,
and named him Hot-Rod...

A few years later he decided to abscond, ( a hawk, or the resident terror,
that was loose at the time in the form of a pit-bull might of got him.)

anyhow..he ended up venturing to somewhere.

I like non-random stories :)

ahhhh, we had a venturesome frog a couple years ago. At a pond not far from our home, from early spring until early fall the place is heavily populated by frogs, we like to hike around the pond, catch frogs, usually let them go; but once we kept a large bull frog I caught; took it home, made a real nice terrarium with pond for him, fed him bugs, etc. One day the boys were playing in their kiddie pool in the driveway and had the frog in the pool; they turned away for literally about 10 seconds, the frog is gone; we looked everywhere within 50 yards for that guy, under leaves, bushes, etc. but never found him. I hope he got home OK.

It was just about 51 years ago, my favorite uncle Joe and I were driving down Delaware Ave. in Philadelphia in his latest new Buick, a '57 Roadmaster. He hit a bump in the road and I suddenly realized it was a turtle; so he pulls over and we're expecting a bit of a mess, but it was a box turtle, shell about 8" long, and it was unscathed. I took it home, built a box/house for him and had that guy for almost 10 years before he perished of seemingly natural causes; this one's favorite foods were baloney and watermelon which I would hand feed him along with as many flies as I could catch.
PS: I think '57 was a very good year for women, too ...or I guess baby girls who eventually grow up to be women.

57 was good for a chevy also..
thats funny..
Hot-Rod never seemed to be worse for wear eating bologna,
as an occasional dessert...

That reminds me of a story...
my 3 year old niece came shrieking into the house..trembling and crying
about seeing a snake with no eyes or a mouth...

Turns out it was an earthworm...
but the neat part is, her parents took the time to ask her questions,
and eventually she understood the answer, and all laughter ensued.

And that's all.

"I HAVE A GOLDEN TICKET"

"ALL ABOARD"

These large letterings my aged eyes appreciate.

What song shall we sing together?

It's funny you mention a song.

Don't be too put off by the artist. I don't like them either. My friend introduced me to a few of their less know songs, you know, the ones where they aren't screaming. This is Vermillion Pt 2. It is remixed to bring out the instruments in the background, sounds great. If you enjoy The Crow, you will enjoy this song.

Yes Augi..
All is emoting....

damn the constrictures that attempt to dam!

colour us all with a blanket of knowing.

We all swim to a shore,
flailing,
wailing,
to be met by a like kind,
a
hand
up,
a
hand
grasping,
life.

chili time AGAin today. wheeeeeeeeeee!

that was too much chili. i'm off it for a few days now.

I like a chili that makes my eyes water.

Saturn is going to be visible next to the moon tonight also.

Uranus is gonna be visible tonight just after the moon.

The moon is so bright at this moment,
