Chatty Charley thread for the week of March 24th 2008

I made it here before Charley? LOL

Well, Cheryl (in the name books) is the female equivalent of Charles..so I guess it's okay.

Hope everyone had a good Easter.

I spent it with the 48 hour flu. I'm better today.

To beat charlie

Yes it is true there is spring and summer after Winter. Can't wait to get the Motorhome out next month to do some traveling.

The breakfast of truckers!

Glad to hear you're feeling better. My wife was also under the weather.

how about davidson beating georgetown? geez! screwed my brackets up

Curry? Gotta love it!

Anybody like the Lebonese dish called Kibbee? If you do, go to www.mrkibbee.com and check out a DVD of how to make this wonderful dish! The guy behind the DVD is my wife's uncle, and his son was reponsible for producing the DVD. Yum.....Yum....

I prefer spam with a hard boild or frid egg and peanut butter on and enlish muffin

Memphis Tigers - great coach and experienced players. Should do well.

LET'S GO..............MOUNTAINEERS...

You gotta love it, East Indian or West Indian, I make both and my wife also can't get enough of it. We also go out for East Indian buffet every couple of weeks sometimes every week. Now I am getting hungry again... I notice my pants keep shrinking every time I put them on..

I'm glad to hear!

I think I've had a 24-hour brain tumor. Either that or the ordinary Monday headache.

I kept repeating at the office, "It's not a too-mah."

I can't believe it was flurrying in Atlanta today.

I didn't post because my daughter and I went to my old HS (Miller School of Albemarle, which is a prep school now, but was a military/prep school when I went there) yesterday. It was depressing. I was talking to this senior when I realized that she probably wasn't even born when I graduated. She probably thought that I was really old. I remember when people would come back and visit and it had been like 15+ years, I thought they were old.

70 in Atlanta tomorrow. Time to plant the garden.

I just took a quiz of things that were in vogue and necessary during WWII and up to the late 40's.

If you got 17-20 out of 20 correct you had to be older than dirt.

Damn, I got all the answers correct.

Tells ya something !

Ack! Don't to those

I've been product testing for this marketing company for over three years, just for fun. They asked if I knew any guys that might be interested, so I thought I'd pass it on. (If it's okay with Miss POI.)

They send you free stuff to try, fill in a simple online form to let them know if you like it or not. They don't sell anything, they are strictly a feedback company. The reports are up to you, they just trust you will do one or two.

I'll be signing up for this campaign, for sure.

Cheers!
Cheryl

BZZAGENT EMAIL SENT TO ME:

Know any guy friends or colleagues who'd be interested in a smooth whisky that's great alone or in a no fuss, sophisticated cocktail?

If so, let them know about the new campaign we're launching soon! As long as they're 25 or older, there's a good chance they'll qualify to try some of this whisky for free!

Forward this email to guys you know so they can quickly sign up for BzzAgent at the link below.

Guys: Learn more and join now!

Or, simply copy and paste this link: www.bzzagent.com/go/whisky

We're guessing your guy friends will thank you for the heads up, so what are you waiting for? After all, this whisky is what dad drank back in the day, when he didn't want a beer and wouldn't be caught dead with a tiny umbrella. Think you know someone who'd be interested?

as I stated before, my daughter and I went to appomattox to see the site of Lee's surrender to Grant. Here is here video of our day trip. Make sure that your volume is on.

As much as I love living out west, I do miss experiencing the history back east.

OTOH, the East may have too much history for my day-to-day living. Personal preference....

Thanks for sharing, anyhow.

Uhh, Cheryl?

Is it single-malt scotch?

I am so glad you're feeling better and back in our midst.

I did the same thing, then checked the dictionary. Both spellings are acceptable. I prefer whiskey.

Not sure what they'll be sending to test. They'll probably send a coupon that you have to take to the liquor store to redeem.

It would be nice to get a bottle of 18 year old Johnny Walker gold. I take mine, straight, on the rocks.

For the madness to continue...

I signed up, so we will see if I get to participate!

Here I sit all broken hearted,
Got no load,
Can't get started.

Oh well, another day.

Happy Thursday everyone!

(Just keeping the windmill alive)

10 more days till the Mexican Riviera cruise!

I will be glad to see your ten day go by then I only have 20 days before taking the motorhome out for the first time this year Happy sailing.

I don't have to work tomorrow, so I'm heading to Shreveport to hit the casinos!
I feel lucky today!!!

Man - I sure feel sorry for you truckers!! Diesel fuel is more expensive than gas (and easier to make) and we know you don't get much mileage out of a gallon of that fuel oil. I wouldn't blame you guys at all if you stuck - and crippled this country. Maybe then some folks in Gov't would wake up to your plight!

Keep on truckin dude!!

Has anyone seen or heard about the new Dash Express GPS released for sale today????????

Its been all over the News: Fox - ABC- local stations.

The concept sound good but it depends on having lots of units in the street to report the traffic conditions back to base.

After owning a Nuvi I can stick in my pocket doubt that I want that monstrosity sitting on the dash board, it is like going from a plasma TV to a big tube TV

School is cancelled. We have snow, and it's still snowing! Is Tuesday really April 1st?

I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.

7/5 of the population, doesn't understand fractions.

Tailspin, I think you are 2/3 right, maybe even 3/3 right.

There are 10 kinds of people in the world....those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Baa

I love testing free things...insert your own joke here. Thanks for the heads up on this, I'll definitely check it out.

I see you're new here joshlinc...welcome.

Took me a few seconds (it's late)... but I got it alright!

Hi all,

Well you observe Earth Day today?
Will you turn your lights off for 1 hour?
Just check Google today if you don't know what this is about.

Tailspin, how is it that the front wheels on your signature picture are turning backwards? LOL

Will I observe? I noticed it on the calendar...does that count as observing?

No, I'm not turning my lights off for 1 hour. That is just symbolism over substance nonsense.

I may even get in the car and go for a long drive looking at windfarms.

I'll turn my lights off for 8 hours! When I go to bed! 

He doesn't know if he's coming or going! 

Diesel fuel is a byproduct of making gasoline. Use to be diesel was way cheaper than gas. Now it's almost a $1.00 more per gallon.

Diesel is now averaging $3.999 a gal. Big trucks get about 6 miles per gallon. And burn about 1 gallon per hour when idling. And for those of you who are against trucks idling, would you sit in a steel box, with the sun beating on it, in the middle of the summer, with no a/c? Or how about in the winter? Sitting in the same steel box with no heat?
Some people think it's ok. We are only human, trying to do a job and survive in order to bring you your goods to the store.
We need more people to help, by contacting their government officials and voicing their opinions about this anti-idling matter.

Ok, I'm done. (Hopping off soapbox) NEXT!

Hey tailspin...
Nice signature/////////

Does looking down on the ground for observation count?

Lights? What lights? All lights are off right now. As Mr. Spock said, "I prefer dark."

miss poi I was taking 56 Marines aka jar-heads from one base to another a 6 hr trip training you know. One of them sow my Garmin c330 and heard it talking and ask what it was. Another marine spoke up and told him. This started a 3 hr conversation on GPS and Garmin, Tom Tom and many other and the POI Factory. It turns out many of them either look here from time to time or are members of POI Factory. Hi gays. They even told me that they look on the web site while they are in the war zones. I just thought you mite like to know.
