I'm waiting for the whole story to come out. This 18 years is a lifetime for her and her parents. What in the world can be going on in her head. This is going to be a text book case for sure. If she was 11, she was already programed pretty much. She had to have been disassociating big time!

How I wonder is her mother going to deal with having grandchildren born of that pervert POC. He was in jail for this chit, they let him out! When are they going to stop letting them out to offend again!? I don't understand!

The poor girl can't be right anymore, how can she be? My major question is, why did it take so long for her to get help?

Maybe once there were children involved she was afraid to do anything? You should see the local reports! It is getting weirder and weirder! There's religion and "voices" involved, web sites and blogs, secret compounds, mystery children...HOW COULD NOBODY NOTICE!!!!!!

He was on parole! How could a parole officer not notice a secret backyard compound full of a secret underage family?! Maybe they need to get on google earth more often. Here's his blog if you want to smell the crazy. (ps: don't overlook the comments)

[Nawny]

Years before my "connected" grandfather died, he'd had a stroke, and once every year some very well dressed men would visit, apparently to check and make sure he still couldn't speak. Very creepy. When he was a kid, he saw something in Chicago that made him decide to leave the country for years...he never told me about anything about that, but he did tell me adventurous stories about running booze out of Canada starting when he was a teenager.

Wow! Interesting BoB! I love old people and I could sit and listen to them for hours. They take many secrets with them to their graves, I am very sure. I'm leaving a book and it will wash all my sins away. They can't holler at me when I'm dead. :hat:

When my MIL would tell me stories (She was in her 90's) and I'd retell them to poppa, most of the time he'd say, She's fulla baloney, that' never happened.. lol!!!

[Nawny]

Actually Nanwy I know probably about as much as you. Mine kept wanting to update to windows 7. I have heard they do not have the bugs worked out yet from my brother so I refused to update. my new one here is a vista which is between a 6 (my old one) and a 7. when vista first came out there were bugs also but they are pretty much cleared up now. my brother tells me this. that is why I know not to do all updates. I sure wish everything was so much easier. You think it would be with new technology but it seems to get worse the better things get "supposedly." I also spent 4 hours on the phone over the modem. Way too long of a story there. LOL sara

thanks for that tidbit on the Kennedys. All stuff I never heard.

Sara I am convinced that computers are built to last 2 years. Poppa's computer is ancient at 4 years old and it acts like it's sick in the head. He doesn't use it much because he uses his computer at work, and I think his home computer needs a good fire hose cleaning. If his at home is on, then he can't get anything at his work computer. ????? I don't know why and I won't ask. ;)

I went to his city office today and our son was laughing because poppa doesn't understand computer technology and is always saying things like, feed it into the computer.. lol! He thinks they are supposed to start his car and do other magic tricks. He claims he doesn't need computers, hard copies are his claim to fame! Slow slow slow poppa. But he's always on the money! No mistakes! :shrug:

I tell my son, don't laugh at him, who owns this building? It isn't you baby! ;) Then poppa laughs and my son scurries away to his desk. I love when the young ones think they know more than a man who has been in the business for over 30 years, sucessfully. He has so many awards and credentials on his office wall there isn't room for anything else.

It's all good.

[SaraSidle]

Born in New York, his dad was from Ireland. Big family. They moved to Chicago when he was a toddler, and when the Depression hit, the boys decided amongst themselves that they needed to go out and make their way in the world so the girls could stay home where they'd be safe. My grandfather got a job driving trucks full of Canadian alcohol when he was 13.

He taught me to drive when I was 12, unbeknownst to my mom...said you never knew when you'd need to drive, lol!

the same thing happened to me. My grandfather's father came from Ireland and Grandpa and the rest of my dad's family including dad were born in New York. what a great place. The whole family was crazy. I just loved to visit them. Your grandfather should have taught mine how to drive. He had a stick and always got caught on the top of a hill and quit driving. LOLOL

[SaraSidle]

I've always wondered if it wasn't St. Valentine's Day massacre related. The timing is right, based on the desperate telegrams asking my great-aunt for money-to be sent to a pseudonym, and his working for the Irish. But then there was the argument with my grandmother where she was yelling about the "hatchet killing" (believed to be witnessed, not performed)...maybe more than one incident, who knows? He really did never talk, even when he could. She would never explain that fight, either!

Weirdly, even though he was an alcoholic and would drive drunk all the time...the LA police always released him once they realized "who he was", also very creepy. And he never had any money, so he couldn't have been a big shot, right? Ah, the mystery!


I bet he paid the LE to keep quiet with booze. was driving and drinking even a crime then?

You must be so proud Nawny. he sounds like such a great guy. It is an honor to him that so many people respect him. I am sure he knows that.
And I see his point about hard copies. I still believe in them at times.
You are so right about the 2 year thing. Mine lasted 2 1/2 and that was with expensive repair after 2. sigh. modern technology :shrug:

[SaraSidle]

I am so glad Deacon. And this has given you a handle on what direction to take down the road if need be. have a wonderful weekend.

By then it was the '50s, so I don't know for sure. In one incident, my mom was about 10 when they were pulled over. The officer looked in, said "Oh, Hi, Don! Cathy, you be careful now."

She was driving.

[BeastofBears]

Whatever hagnog is, I think I need a double, I am so hopping mad about Jaycee Dugard!!!!!! aaaaaaaargh! (primal scream) I want to maul something.

When his employees see me in the office, they corner me, tell me poppa stories, and beg me to talk him into going on vacation. :) I always laugh. He trained them all to be good workers though.

I think my son's team did win the tournament yesterday. He dressed up and went to the banquet last night and that would be the only reason he dressed up. Either that or he won either longest drive of closest to the pin on a par three. I'll find out this weekend.

[beemer]

Good Day :seeya: yes technology sure is frustrating at times. I know we have all experienced the million menu choices on the phone. Of course your issue never applies to menu's offered. All ya wanna do is talk to a live person who speaks English clearly. I'm kinda like poppa Nawny. I refuse to do online banking or use self checkouts. It takes away jobs. The other day I called our bank to transfer some monies. I just wanted to know if i could do it at the bank without an appt. I was dispersing to several acct's. Bank tells me oh i can do that right now for you over the phone. I politely declined. I want to go in and talk to a live person and check my print out that it is completed properly :shrug:

Mine are both off to college. I admit I did a little dance of joy. I have never lived without kids. DH had custody of his first two kids when we were married. Then we had two. I'm tearing every closet, drawer, nook and cranny apart and redoing everything. I've emptied the laundry room. My garbage can was filled to the top.

The weather is going to be crappy here all weekend - I think I feel the need to remove some wallpaper. I picked up some paint samples last week.

I'm loving the leftovers! When DS was home I had to cook two dinners everyday. I would have multiple crock pots going at once. One meal for when he came home from school and another for after sports. What said would serve 4 - served him.

Lego's - He still has his first big, chunky set. He will not part with them and barely allows his nephew's to play with them. Actually, he still plays with them and will allow the nephews to join him, occasionally. He's currently majoring in two areas of engineering.

I met the most incredible woman today at Dave's Market. She was complaining at the bread aisle that they don't have the cranberry bread anymore and I was helping her look for it. Before long, we started a conversation ( I talk to everyone, I even talk to trees) she told me all about her life, started on her hate for doctors because she has cataracts, then went on to tell me she is a Holocaust survivor and had 4 sons, three of which have passed away. She was so darn interesting. She is 78 years old and looks 50.

As we went on to talk more, she said she lost everything 3 years ago because one of her sons took her to the cleaners. She now lives in a 400 square foot cottage and all she wants to do is take walks on the beach and do her rug hooking. She is not bitter, she is not angry. I was listening to her and thought God had sent an angel to me. Her name is Lida.

I gave her my phone number. She gave me hers too. I found her totally fascinating. When we parted she turned and said, "Will you walk with me on the beach?" I said, Sure! Then she turned around again and smiled and said, All because of Cranberry bread. LOL!


Some days are just holy. :rose:

She hates doctors because she has cataracts?

Like the doctors gave them to her?

[Nawny]

She hates doctors because she has cataracts?

Like the doctors gave them to her?



No :) She started her story with that after we both agreed people are getting sick from the ingredients in processed foods. I should have clarified.

The conversation turned to doctors. She told me she had not been to a doctor in 40 years and takes no prescription medications. She believes they are over prescribed and doctors are killing people.

She talked about her cataracts because she went to an eye doctor to arrange to have them fixed and they asked her to fill out a form which asked her to list the medications she takes. She left it blank and the nurse asked her again to list them. She did not believe a 78 year old American woman was not taking any prescription medications, and Lida was treated like she had dementia because she couldn't do it.

The only reason she went to get her cataracts repaired is, she does rug hooking and her eyes were failing her. We both agreed we cannot fix our own cataracts or or set our own broken bones etc, but we avoid doctors around these parts, as much as possible.

Hee hee haa haa haaa Ha haaa! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-laughing025.gif (http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys.php)

Um, they come back, the little bastids.

Nawnys right....my parents have four children. Twenty-three years ago they said they were retiring to Florida. HAH! you think they left on their own? Nope, All four kids with wives and kids moved too. I moved with dog, no kids. Left my boyfriend of ten years. Figured if in ten years we weren't married, why stick around? Best move ever. Three of us live within twenty minutes from theit house.

On top of that I was looking at the Jaycee Dugard kidnapper at his arraignment...and I think I used to have issues with him on campus. He looks a LOT like this one "preacher" who used to bug me on Sproul Plaza. I'm creeped out on so many fronts tonight.

Bob, I know exact;y how you feel. Makes you feel as if your space has been violated and a little helpless knowing you could have been so close yet unknowing . http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-angry031.gif (http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys.php)

Yeah, I totally thought of you. And the worst is, its close enough that you feel like you should go do something about it, confront them or something. Of course, you got that opportunity, lol!

Bless you Nawny and the angels who look over you :rose::rose::rose:

Thank you Bree. I am very blessed every day! Like right now! Thank you!:seeya:

Thank you baby! You are an earth angel and I am so happy you found me! I love all the angels here! Hurricane Danny will always be with me too. ;)


It's raining here, not too windy and seems like hurricane Danny changed his mind about ripping my roof off. :tongue: Pssst, guess who is doing the laundry? Poppa is a laundry angel. I've been doing laundry since I was 10 years old, I dread it. :hat: I guess ya know dat! :o

[Nawny]

I'm almost finished cooking for a little 4 year old weeble wobble party. There are enough of us to fill a small 3rd world country so weeble parties are huge. I made the Rice Balls, gravy, chicken parm (I decided not to make the francese) potato salad, ravioli stuffed with spinach and cheese, of course the gnocchi with the pink vodka sauce and I know I forgot something. Now all I have to do is go recreate myself after a shower and deliver the food to the weeble's house. I'm so good huh? Pet me! LOL!:punch:

We have voluteers making the meatballs, taco salad, chicken wings, bringing the bread and chips.

Have the best day! :seeya:

You're a momma's girl LOL! You all followed your mother and father into their retirement! OMG! See? No escape! Yes leaving your 10 year education in relationships, was a good move. I'm glad you didn't marry him on paper, the court day is hell. The winner takes it all :beer:

I'm a gypsy at heart. I love to move. Just say when! In 17 years with poppa we've lived in 4 different homes. LOL! He gets nervous when I say, I saw the nicest house today! His panoramic eyes fly open! I do have some seller's regret though. This house is a lot to keep up with. I'd move in heartbeat. I just love the adventure of it. I've even lived in Florida. (Before I met poppa and after a nasty divorce) But Rhode Islanders (almost) always return. I can't explain why.

I'd love to live in NYC.

Fugeddaboudit! :cuss::punch:

Come on Poppa Live a little!!!:biggrin:

[beemer]

Nawny food sounds wonderful and yes you must be tired. Me too!!! Wedding yesterday and we were on the dance floor all night!!! We had a ball and stayed over in the city at the Inn. Lots of folks we knew so much visiting. Daily chuckle-At one point one of my gal pals and I went off to the ladies room. Decided to go out for a smoke. Exited the building where going out the door my back side was in full view of the public diningroom. A lady was kind enough to come burning out to tell me my dress was tucked into my undies at the back :eek: Gawd we laughed so hard we were crying. My pal didn't notice as she exited the ladies room first and walked ahead of me out the door to smoke :eek:

speaking of has anyone heard from Jlette?

[deacon]

My son's team won the tournament the other day. It was a charity deal for the people who lost their homes to the wild fire the other month. He and his team decided to give their prizes back to be put up in the silent auction. They won free green fees and cart fees to one of the most exclusive courses at Myrtle Beach. Green and cart fees there, if you can get on, are almost $175. He has always wanted to play that course but said the people who lost their homes needed the money more. In the auction, they went for more than face value.:eek: I think he has turned out pretty good so far.

[Gatordog]

Fish and rice are just about the only things I don't have an allergy to. I'd rather eat nawny's food and have teary eyes afterwards.

Datsa my boy. That is a private club where they once playes a Senior PGA event. The only way to get on the course is to be invited by a member or something like this. Maybe now his boss, who is a member, will realize what he has for an employee and take him to play there. He is off this Friday and we are going down Friday and staying the night. So we will get to be with him most of the day Friday. I guess we will take him out to his favorite Italian place to eat.

And you have all successfully summed up why I never wear dresses unless I really, really have to.

I don't know why the hyper-religious of all stripes think dresses are modest-clearly those rules are made by men who never had an "incident"!

Well, I can give you the orthodox and or fundamentalist Jewish take is -- very simply the OT thing about a woman not wearing a man's clothing. Even if they are pants made for women. They (the rabbis who call the shots) say that is getting too close, and one thing can lead to another.

Some of them have recently began to allow women to wear women's pants with skirts over them, to hide the pubic outline.

But I think the bottom lines are the rules are just another way of controling women.

Here one still sees a lot of religious Moslem women in pants. Loose pants, but not only. I've seen women in jeans and hijab at the university.

I think it is more they can not control their own eyes and want someone else to blame it on. A man should be in control of where he looks and where his mind goes and not blame his own thoughts on someone else. You are responsible for your own thoughts.

If I had to pick something out as being modest, I would vote for the salwar-kumeez like they wear in Pakistan. Comfortable and practical as well as quite flattering. I would totally wear it if I wouldn't look like some kind of wanna-be (we have a large Indian and Pakistani community around here.) I have seen some really stylish blazer coats and pants or jeans on Iranian women. Of course, they are usually being chased around by the religious police for it :mad:

This is an excuse the fundamentalist and/or orthodox Jews make all the time.

I "love" that double game they play -- men are clearly superior, except when it comes to keeping the "yetzer ha-rah" (the evil within them) in check. Then it is the woman's responsibility.

You know that belt that some of the Hasidim where over their robes? It's to separate the spiritual from the physical in the body. I'm not making this up. An orthodox Jew told me. (Modern orthodox, really modern orthodox.)

The salwar-kumeez is the long tunic and pants outfit? It's lovely and practical. But I'm sure that wasn't the intent when men ordered women to wear it!

The orthodox and fundamentalist Jews have their own (illegal) "Modesty Police" in their neighborhoods.

I think I mentioned them. You can't sit next to a woman on a bus, but you can beat her up if her wig is to glamourous. :shrug:

When I went there, we were warned about what to wear if we went to Mea Shearim, I think it was...I was like, why would I want to go there? They don't want me, and I don't want them. I found better places to hang out. There's a Ben and Jerry's - who needs anything else?

ps, fashionably wigged women should carry tasers. A few good zaps from those, and the "religious" police will learn to avert their eyes. Look within, guys.

[Marian Paroo]

Good for you for having the "balls" not to go to Mea Shearim. Most tourists are afraid of "offending" by not going on the offered tour and are "understanding" if they do go and dress the way they are ordered to.

Feh!

Have the riots of the Mea Shearim people, not even in their neighborhood, but in central J"m been on the news in the USA? Lemme tell you, if any body on the left, or any Palestinian attacked police and property like that, they wouldn't be standing on their feet for very long.

I hear that Mariam! Women have been pushed down for centuries, but everyone knows they're going to crash though the ceiling eventually. If we were not able to, heh, we wouldn't be intelligent enough to do so. I fight for it all the time even with my Sicilian poppa here. (On small levels) He makes me laugh when he says things like, "you can't do that, it's a man's job." LOL!!! I say, laundry is a man's job! :tongue:

Fortunately I live in the USA. And still, a female can't get a scholarship for being a great baseball player.

In the late 1960's when I was a teen, some performers seemed to think femininity was better than masculinity. I've often wondered why the phrase penis envy came about. Personally, I think it's the other way around. ;) Maybe it was an English thing?

Check out the clothing and the hair.. lol!

DH went and watched Tiger on Sunday. He said hardly anyone was there. I guess NJ isn't used to having major golf events. DS goes to school near there and he was able to get his dad a 1/2 price ticket. I was just glad DH got out of the house and let me clean/reorganize in peace. He keeps mumbling that it was more peaceful with a kid around the house.

Thanks. That is a son thing. He seems to have always been that way for the most part. Made him easier to live with. My MIL said we should have had another one because he was never a problem. Well, not a bad problem. He does drive his mom a little crazy because he won't answer her on the computer when she wants to chat. That is because she is fussing about something that really isn't that big of a problem. He will talk to me though and that chaps her rear. He He.....:D

Oh that's funny Deacon. My brother has only one child - a son, whom I adore as if he were my own. He treats me as if I was a second mother to him. His mom is fine with it. She feels, heck, if I want to spend my money so her son has better things, go for it. My brother on the other hand is jealous. He won't tell me when Philip calls or what's going on with him. I love him like I gave birth to him myself. He writes me when he needs advice. It just chaps my brother's rear too....:D My brother wanted him to be a Navy pilot, I wanted him to be a doctor. I had the better arguement. He will be Dr. Phil in 8 months. Auntie Gator will be going to St. Louis for that graduation.

I had the better arguement. He will be Dr. Phil in 8 months. Auntie Gator will be going to St. Louis for that graduation.

Oh that's funny Deacon. My brother has only one child - a son, whom I adore as if he were my own. He treats me as if I was a second mother to him. His mom is fine with it. She feels, heck, if I want to spend my money so her son has better things, go for it. My brother on the other hand is jealous. He won't tell me when Philip calls or what's going on with him.

:) You are proud of him aren't you girl!!! It's a grand feeling to see the children who grew up with your love, do well!

[BeastofBears]

Good for you for having the "balls" not to go to Mea Shearim. Most tourists are afraid of "offending" by not going on the offered tour and are "understanding" if they do go and dress the way they are ordered to.

Feh!

Have the riots of the Mea Shearim people, not even in their neighborhood, but in central J"m been on the news in the USA? Lemme tell you, if any body on the left, or any Palestinian attacked police and property like that, they wouldn't be standing on their feet for very long.

When they show "news of the world" segments, I've seen brief stories. Shep Smith on Fox does this, and he covers 4 "local" stories around the world in 1 minute flat. I have seen hopping mad Hassidim on that segment, but that's about it. Anyone else?

I have mixed feelings about my Italian instructor. He tells us not to email him with questions because he's too busy for us, and canceled our mid-class break because he has to book to another campus after our class and wants to end early. On the other hand, he is a smart, um, alec, who puts down the ubiquitous incredibly annoying students and tells us the actual bad words to avoid and why. My French teacher would never have done either.

You have to be careful how you spell or say penne, apparently.

How do I make it plural? Because there are these two girls who text during class and talk loudly and jump up and down wanting to answer every question. And they always sit in front of me! And tell little jokes to each other and giggle.

I need a taser more than a mini-skirted woman in Mea Shearim!

[DrewBerry]

I just learned of another heartbreaking story of a local baby killed by his father. I haven't learned how to post link but the story is online in the "Bellingham Herald." Bellingham is a college town about 1 hr. north of Seattle where I live. A 42 yr. old father called police last Friday to say his "baby was missing." He supposedly put the 10 week old to bed Thurs. night and when he woke up the next morning, the baby was "missing." A 3 day search turned up nothing until today when they arrested the father for murder. Apparently, he 'fessed up to police and took them to the wooded area near his home where he put his dead child. News reports state that baby had blunt force trauma to his head, broken legs, and multiple fractures, bruises. Mommy dearest is not a suspect because she went to jail the day before the father reported the baby missing. Mommy's in jail for robbery and will be there a while.
WTF is going on with our society? This baby was only 10 weeks old for f**k sake!
I'm just sick and needed to vent.

"Hopping mad?" Not burning tires, garbage cans, smashing cards? Over turning cars? Beating up policeman? Attacking the mayor when he tried to negotiate with them?

That's the kind of thing that they are doing these days. :flamemad:

You would need a taser to protect yourself for showing an elbow in Mea Shearim or Bnai Brak or Emanuel (in the occupied territories). Seriously. There is some rule about the eroticism of the female elbow.

It all revolves around power. "I want power and control over others and will do what I have to do to get it." Good comes from the inside out. Not from the outside in. It has to be within you and you must want to share it.

DrewB

That is a horrible story DrewB. :( Of course we are almost used to hearing such things, sadly. This human condition is not normal, but it is prevalent among us since the days before Christ. Actually, look what they did to Christ!?!

We are becoming more and more evolved and this kind of stuff is causing us angst, more than ever.

For all the optimists like us, I believe there is a rumbling and I have hope still, that things will change, starting with our laws. Man's inhumanity to man since Cain and Able, the first murderer, is inherent, yet we call ourselves civilized? Most are, but those who are not shouldn't be allowed to breathe.

I think of the geese I saw on the side of the road one day, where the male goose stood by his dead partner all day long. I drove by them twice that day; first in the morning, then in the late part of the afternoon and he remained by her side. Can it be that those animals have more compassion than we do as humans? Was it from those animals we learned that one partner for life was for us? Are we even capable of such a commitment? Are humans (especially helpless children) becoming disposable to the underlings of society? So many questions, and yet I see a change in the wings, less religion, more God. More love, less politics, more respect for human life. I hope I am alive to see it happen.

This Jaycee case is going to cause some serious problems for LE. I hold them responsible for that little girls nightmare! Totally. I laugh when they praise LE for finding her. BULL! They slept on it for 18 years. We need to remove those predators from society with the first offense they get caught at. These LE folks don't show up for life, never mind work! I hope that Jaycee's family sues the state for a billion dollars, not that money is going to unbreak their hearts. At least it will wake LE the Eff up!

I commented on Larry King's blog, saying they should give the perps life without for the first offense. Someone called me a moron for that comment, saying there are some who fall through the cracks and if it was a relative I'd be singing another tune. I laughed because I knew he was a chooch! Probably a perv wanna be too. They read. :rolleyes: If he were sitting in front of me, I would have told him I would help put a relative away for being anywhere near the cracks. :cuss:

[Nawny]

Thank you Samantha for this beautiful reminder!

Death is nothing at all.

I have only slipped away into the next room.

Whatever we were to each other, we still are.

Call me by my old familiar name.

Speak to me in the same easy way you always have.

Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together.

Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.

Life means all that it ever meant.

It is the same as it always was.

There is absolute unbroken unity, and continuity.

Why should I be out of your mind because I am out of your sight?

I am but waiting for you,
For an interval,
Somewhere very near,
Just around the corner.

All is well.

Nothing is past.

Nothing has been lost.

One brief moment,
And all will be as it was before-
Only better.

Infinitely better,
Infinitely happier:

We will be one, together forever.

No she has not. Now I am also wondering about Wagsy....

Wags told us she had company for a week. I hope it wasn't to triggery for her. Every time my family visits it takes me a few days to decompress.. :o
She may be working because she passed her CNA tests and was so happy:) to be heading toward her degree in nursing. She'll come back, I'm sure.
J might be having her baby :) Can't wait to see!!!

[Nawny]

It's another weeble's actual Birthday today. She's 4 years old and we're going to bake a cake from scratch. I'm no baker but she might bring me luck. I'm using Dom Deluise's mother's birthday, anniversary, wedding, cake recipe. I have his book called: Eat This, it'll Make You Feel better. Love it!

I'll let you know how it comes out. Poppa ran to the market this morning before work to buy 2 Betty Crocker cake mixes, just in case Dom's cake flops. Wish me luck! :o

LOL!

[Marian Paroo]

Bestaluck and Happy Birthday to the BD girl :rose: !

[shadydaisy]

I came for a quick peek and now I'm hungry for penne with vodka sauce, I want some cake, and I want to know what's going on with Jlette and baby.

I hate to say this but people killing their babies/small children is not all that uncommon in NJ. We just had a corrections officer kill her baby and herself and another woman killed her small child. She tried to kill the older child, too, but a neighbor started CPR and saved her. They just found another babies skeleton in the woods.

Thoughts are with Danny.

[beemer]

Happy Birthday to the Nawny weeble and thinking of Danny as well :rose: Yeah whats up with J-she could at least be posting us from the labour room:D

[beemer]

So sad eh daisy? So many who cant have children and so many that discard them like trash :cuss:

Good Luck with the cake Nawny-let us know and if a good recipe care to share ;)

[Gatordog]

Based on some personal knowledge...he could do better! :D

Though I do wish him the oodles of money that result...

I guess I should have said he will be a Dr. Phil, not the Dr. Phil. Found out yesterday that he's already operating. If someone had to operate on me, I'd want it to be him. He has long, slim fingers and hands. My father has hands like baseball catcher mitts! :eek: He'd have to cut a person from stem to stern to fit those hands into a surgical site.

[Gatordog]

LOL!!!! No worries Sara, I got her back! That stoogotz is not teaching he's stealing from students and he should be told, nicely with a few words he probably doesn't even understand! Send him to me, I'll teach him Italian! Then we can send him to Boston and he can learn some Irish too!:cuss:

Tell him I said Penne this:tongue:



BoB, have your people call my person. ;)

If you don't take care of him - Poppa will! He will say, Let me talk to someone with a brain!

[Gatordog]

For Nawny and Danny....

I thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new,
I thought about you yesterday
and days before that too.

I think of you in silence,
I often speak your name,
all I have are memories
and your picture in a frame.

Your memory is my keepsake,
with which I'll never part.
God has you in his keeping,
I have you in my heart.

Thoughts are with Danny.

One of my anthro profs did a study of Victorian child mortality and decided that a lot of it was not exactly biological in nature, if you know what I mean. There was a really disproportionately high number of "accidental" smotherings that just didn't work out no matter how she ran the numbers, and they were much higher among the poor. So she theorized that infanticide was taking place.

And here's a fourth century building that had over 100 newborn dead babies under it. http://www.archaeology.org/9703/newsbriefs/ashkelon.html So its been around forever, maybe.

[Nawny]

Bestaluck and Happy Birthday to the BD girl :rose: !

Thank you Marian! :) I finally managed to bake a cake without a box. For the first time in my life, I baked a cake from scratch! I even made custard to put between the layers and put fresh strawberries between the layers too! I'm so proud of that cake. It couldn't happen twice. lol! I even took a picture of it! I can't believe it! :eek:

Thank you Dom DeLuise cook book!!!!


However, ahem, I tried to write happy birthday on it with an old tube of blue deco sweet stuff and it leaked so I put some strawberries on it to hide the sins. I'm good.;)

Nawny I only made one cake not in a box with my sister. it was a seven layer cake with wonderful frosting and took 3 hours. It was for my mom and dad's anniversary. It came out great between the 2 of us but it was scarey.
I congratulate you...

You made a Dobos? :hat:

I'd rep you if I could, but it's too soon.

You guys have guts.. When I tried this it had weird bulges and collapsed on one side. Tasted good, but not fit for public viewing...

Heya, don't laugh at my Berkeley cop! She took one look at Freako and knew something was wrong. Nailed him! But they have a lot of experience with freakos on the Berkeley campus and ride herd all the time. You should have seen the day the Hate Man and Dave the Yashua Guy got in a knock-down fight...but I digress...

And...to Danny! :beer: Happy B-day, Danny!


Thank you BoB! I know he would have liked you a lot! Probably does anyway from where he is. You keep his mom smiling :) And the beer, oh yeah that he would like as well!! He was a URI **** guy, majored in calculus. (What ever that is??) We call it UR HIGH. Groan ~ ~ ~ Lots of stories. My least favorite is when 4 brothers walked into the keg room in the Civic Center in Providence and literally rolled 2 kegs right into the elevator, and out the door. No one stopped them. (??) I don't understand. :confused:

Another scary one was when he was being initiated and they lined a few **** brother wanna be's up (including him) in an empty auditorium, blind folded them, taped their mouths, put a slit in the tape and stuck lemons in their mouths, then proceeded to douse them with actual beer. When they untied their hands, they forced them to scrub the floor and the stairs.

This is educating? Bah fongoul! :cuss: He was proud to be a brother and I was outraged. He laughed at me. :shrug: Danny loved adventure and most likely still does. There are many Danny stories. They don't seem so scary now. :)

Some folks need to get out more. Discover the incredibly erotic...BIG TOE!!! good grief, the things people will fixate on. I get it...its anything with a crease, huh? makes those of dirty mind think of other body parts? Oh, why am I trying to make sense of it?!

Haaaa!!!!!! Cry laughing!!!!

Wow the Snowbirds just flew over our house. Scared the bajeeze's outta me at first as they were so low and it was so loud. About 6 planes in formation. What a sight. Must be enroute to/from an air show.

Cool! I got something similar on The A's home opener this year, the Blue Angels flew right over my house for the end of the anthem. I was such a happy dork!

[Nawny]

If you don't take care of him - Poppa will! He will say, Let me talk to someone with a brain!

LOL!!!!!! You got poppa down pat! :hat:

[Nawny]

For Nawny and Danny....

I thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new,
I thought about you yesterday
and days before that too.

I think of you in silence,
I often speak your name,
all I have are memories
and your picture in a frame.

Your memory is my keepsake,
with which I'll never part.
God has you in his keeping,
I have you in my heart.

:rose:



Beautiful my friend.. just absolutely beautiful! I've never seen that one and I will keep it always. I love these words because they are so true. Thank you Jo! :)

Haaa my best cake was for my brothers 40th surprise party. I made a giant boob cake-2 boobs in fact. It was the day before the party and i was just perfecting the nipples with icing when he dropped in. I'm standing in my kitchen in a panic where to shove it so he doesn't see it. I opened the oven door but forgot one of the racks had been raised and i just shoved it in. Lopped those puppies right off with the oven rack. So i had to start all over:confused:

[Nawny]

Just one weeble here today. It's strangely quiet.. hmmmm.. she's the last one not in school yet. So sweet, so quiet and after lunch we will go upstairs and paint for a while. She's the birthday girl and she helped me bake her cake today. She loves being the only weeble at Nawny's house.. lol! :seeya:

Beem this reminds me of one night when Mom made dinner (not from scratch) and all the muffins came out of the oven with Nipples on them. I am not kidding. My brothers and I could not stop laughing. What made it worse was my stodgy dad (at that time) was hmmin and haruffing like he did not approve. You know of course that made it so much worse. Night to remember..........good old Mom............sara

Excellent points, Nawny. I'm with you about LE being asleep for the past 18 yrs. and now they get kudos for finding Jaycee?!

One of my anthro profs did a study of Victorian child mortality and decided that a lot of it was not exactly biological in nature, if you know what I mean. There was a really disproportionately high number of "accidental" smotherings that just didn't work out no matter how she ran the numbers, and they were much higher among the poor. So she theorized that infanticide was taking place.

And here's a fourth century building that had over 100 newborn dead babies under it. http://www.archaeology.org/9703/newsbriefs/ashkelon.html So its been around forever, maybe.

That was a disturbing article. I was, however, pleased that it was not just the girl babies put their to die. I know I'm grasping for something to be less of a downer.

Thank you Marian! :) I finally managed to bake a cake without a box. For the first time in my life, I baked a cake from scratch! I even made custard to put between the layers and put fresh strawberries between the layers too! I'm so proud of that cake. It couldn't happen twice. lol! I even took a picture of it! I can't believe it! :eek:

Thank you Dom DeLuise cook book!!!!


However, ahem, I tried to write happy birthday on it with an old tube of blue deco sweet stuff and it leaked so I put some strawberries on it to hide the sins. I'm good.;)

Yes please, I'll have a piece. I'll eat the spot where the strawberries are hiding the boo-boo.


THanks Bree. :)

Yes J could email from her labor room, jeese! Pictures! I want pictures!

I could do without the webcam. I didn't want to see anything when it was me delivering. Although I bet it hurts less when you just watch.

I'm getting a little antsy waiting for the news. Are we not first on her list of people to tell?


HaHa..... good one gator!!! prolly more like an A cup :beer:

I will tell you it's not easy finding A cup bras. It's a very serious matter. I have first hand knowledge. LOL

Those were the days, yep. I had actually considered getting the fake ones. But, menopause took care of that problem along with my rear end, hips, thighs and bingo arms. Ahhh, that's okay, nawnys are supposed to be soft and huggable.

Meet me at midnight in the back alley for cake! I'll be holding BoB's Italian teacher hostage, and we can all have a go at him with the rolling pin.

Eww that was such a violent thing to say. :eek: Ahhh, nah, just a few slaps :punch: so we can get BoB's money back. Hee hee. Now that's Italian!

Ah yes, the world needs Virgo. They're so darn logical. The red shirts go with the red shirts. The blue shirts go with the blue shirts and the fact that we live in such an imperfect world gives them ulcers.

No way! I want to learn the Italian no matter what, and there are no other sections. meh. All language teachers are the same!

It was fun watching him argue with one of the annoying students about how to say Asian-Pacific Islander, since she refused to identify herself as an American. Although she was born here, we found out in the next conversation section...you can meet the annoying students with your cooking implements, though! (there are two of them, and watch out, they're fit!)

Okay we'll let your Italian teacher keep his kalyoone's. Nobody scares nawn, fit or no fit. LOL! I have muscles and a rolling pin!

I can't get over the fact that Berkley has students that do that! It's such a famous school! On the other hand I live near Brown and I see strange things walking around the city. Their campus is not green, it's asphalt. Lots of guitar players sitting on sidewalks looking funny. They are our future lawyers and doctors. HELP!! :chicken:

Nah, your future doctor is being trained in Mumbai as we type, lol!

This is the local community college! SO not Berkeley...but frankly, I can name off students when I was there who were just as annoying. I went to JC before Berkeley, and I thought I was going to a hallowed land of pure academic brilliance. Then I got there and realized that there was the same percentage of people who really cared :shrug: so I hung out with them.

That's why, say, a degree from Harvard or Yale fails to impress me too much in politicians. Show me your transcripts and we'll talk. Of course, some of them won't release their transcripts. Wonder why?

My son is off on Friday so we are going down there Friday and Saturday. We will probably take him out to celebrate our birthdays Friday night. Go to the Bass Pro Shop Saturday morning. I have some stuff that I want to buy for hunting season. Not that I will kill anything, but I want to get it. I sat in a tree last deer season and did more "shooting" with my camera than anything else. Never did get a deer. Nothing but young bucks and does came to see me. And squirrels and a kitty cat. That cat scared the crap out of me. It was funny. He was in a tree and all I could see was white in a tree. I thought it was a deer but when I was looking at the white with the binoculars it started down the tree. Got on the ground and walked right toward me. I was in a ground blind and when it got about 20 feet from me I started calling Here kitty, kitty, kitty. I returned the favor. The cat went running back home like something was after him. End of hunting trip. I laughed so hard nothing was coming out then.:biggrin:

I feel so much better now that I got out of the plant that I was working in and started doing tha walking. The stress isn't as bad either. Too much back stabbing going on in that place. That is why I am not there now, I got stabbed in the back by my boss. Real nice guy, NOT.:mad:

I was wondering what language he was singing in. Then, I found a video on the list that said, with lyrics. NO language, lol!!!

[Amy]

I have mixed feelings about my Italian instructor. He tells us not to email him with questions because he's too busy for us, and canceled our mid-class break because he has to book to another campus after our class and wants to end early. On the other hand, he is a smart, um, alec, who puts down the ubiquitous incredibly annoying students and tells us the actual bad words to avoid and why. My French teacher would never have done either.

You have to be careful how you spell or say penne, apparently.

I hope this is a FREE course you are taking!!!! Otherwise, doesn't seem like you are getting your money's worth. Well, I guess learning the actual bad words might be worth the cost, lol!!!!

LOL!!!! No worries Sara, I got her back! That stoogotz is not teaching he's stealing from students and he should be told, nicely with a few words he probably doesn't even understand! Send him to me, I'll teach him Italian! Then we can send him to Boston and he can learn some Irish too!:cuss:

Tell him I said Penne this:tongue:



BoB, have your people call my person. ;)

Gee, thanks, Nawny---you should put a warning on your posts--now I gotta go clean the key board!!!

[BeastofBears]

Oh Nawny that cake looks soooo good :beer: good to see ya OS :seeya: No koolaid for me-I was at work for 6 hours and i have witnesses :D I'm drinking cawfee-decaf which would go so good with that cake. Looks like lotsa folks dropped in here tonight. Anybody got anything special going on this long weekend? I dont :( I'm on a 6 day stretch :( So much for part time right now. Youngest son was not set to head up to school till next week since he doesn't start till the 10th. He gets a call yesterday to caddie up that way for the Nationwide tour canadian Championship. So off he goes with my car tomorrow. Then back sometime over the weekend-day depending on if his player makes the cut or not. Then we will run him back next Tuesday. He can stay right at his school rental house as the course is nearby. Golf Channel should televise so I'll let ya know when and ya all can see my baby :seeya:

My new cable line-up has the Golf Channel! (a pox be upon them nevertheless)

Oh, yeah! I'm one of those inquisitive jerks who has to know WHY I can't say a word!

[Amy]

Well, gee. Looks like I missed the party even when I did sit down to post. Then, I fell asleep!!!!!:(

Great cake, Nawny!!! Bet the little weeble was beside herself, getting to help make it from scratch and everything. Happy birthday to all the little and big weebles celebrating here and in heaven.

When DD's first bday came along, I found the wonderful world of Dairy Queen ice cream cakes. Of course, my sister also BAKED a cake AND decorated it!!! So, every year, my kids had whatever cake they wanted from DQ. When we first moved over here, their baby sitter was a school cook (and a wonderful one, too!) One day, DD informed me that the baby sitter COOKED A CAKE IN THE OVEN!!!! (I didn't know DD even knew what an oven was, it wasn't like she ever saw ME use one, lol!!!) Of course, it was made from scratch. DD informed me that her aunt could show me how it was done!!! I said, but, if it was cooked in the oven, there could be no ice cream. Well, Mom--you can get ice cream in a box. Darn baby sitter!!! :tongue:

I looked to see if Wagsy was back to posting. I had a note and her company did arrive, and she has been under the weather. Guess she will show up sooner or later, huh?

Well, I'm wide awake now, so guess, since this party is over, I will check other boards/threads to see what else I missed, and if there are any posters still awake this time of night.

Good stuff Bob-Correction on my part-he is caddying for the Canadian Championship (Canadian Tour) NOT the Nationwide tour KRAFT disease. Son tells me it looks like it will be taped and aired at a later date. He will know more when he gets there and i will know more when he calls.

[beemer]

Sorry i missed ya Amy but i was long sawing logs by then :shrug: I'm just pacing it here-6 day work stretch and final school move day next Tuesday :eek: Oh dear i hope Wags didn't take my advice bout the wine :no: Hope she is back soon and fit as a fiddle. Too cute-they even say and do cute things at 21. Mr. Caddyshack here is presently in the shower. Handed me his cell phone with strict instructions to answer if it should ring. Informed that HIS player will be calling any time. Going thru all his stuff to make sure he has everything. Looking kinda official ;)

Let me know when - the DH always has the Golf Channel on. I'll search and Tivo.

Sara - Can I come play Canasta with you? I played it all the time with my Canadian grandmother - no one around here knows how to play, or is even interested in learning. I loved playing partners.

Will do daisy-he mumbled something last night bout it being taped starting tomorrow when the tourney starts but not aired for a month or two???? Sometimes canadian sport doesn't get the attention american sport does but we dont promote our athletes like you folks do. Golf channel may do some re-caps during the tourney. Our son should be at the course shortly so once i have player's name i'll let ya all know. He will be calling tonight with all the skinny. He is very excited and gets paid to boot. Both our son's have appeared in tourney's on the golf channel as player's. Not sure why he has a bit of the jitters. More excitement i think. Never learned how to play canasta but my Dad was a huge cribbage player with his Legion buddies.

And the defense attorney TH is trying to blame WHAT on the prosecution? The PROSECUTION is overplaying the fact that this POS killed her own baby? Or,
is she saying that the prosecution is overplaying the fact that baby daddy is a minor? Prosecution can't be blamed for her killing her baby, she had done that before there was a prosecution involved, for pete's sake. I guess it's just that, as a defense th, she has to make whatever kind of noises she can to "defend" the actions of the underdog---the one arrested for murder.:flamemad: No matter how stupid her comments seem.

Did anyone catch the woman on LK night before last i believe? She was discussing the Garrido case. I hope i have the nutbars name right. Anyways she went on to say that perhaps he is not as bad a guy as everyone thinks he is as we have no information on how he treated JC and the sired daughters during their captivity :eek: I had to change the channel. I still cant wrap my head around that :cuss:

OMG!!!! Does she actually think that treating a person "nicely," like making sure she had a roof over her head (technically speaking,) food in her belly, and a "job" to go to makes up for kidnapping and RAPING the victim? I suppose some defense slob is going to say that eventually Jaycee was a "willing" partner in having sex w/this POS? Just because there are only 2 children, sure as heck does not mean that this POS had sex w/Jaycee on only 2 occasions. And, even if he did not have to FORCEFULLY rape her each and every time does not mean it is not rape. I would imagine that @ some point, Jaycee realized that she would have to succumb to his advances, if she wanted to live. That doesn't make her a willing partner in any way, in my books. Just someone who wants to survive and does what she has to.

And, regardless of how "well" Jaycee might have been treated by these 2 POS's, she was deprived of her childhood, of her family, of her education, basically, of her life.

I think that if they would have handled his first case correctly this would not have happened. "A rope, A tree.........."

I know i hear ya's It was just appalling. Send her in there for 18 years and report back good gawd:flamemad: I just read that when he was sent back to prison for i believe 4 months his wife Nancy was then the sole person keeping them captive. Good then it should come down even harder on her. The he made me do it defense may not fly. Nancy also states she loved them and thought of them as family. Wonder how she would treat an enemy :eek:

Don't worry about getting his name right-he doesn't deserve one. He took Jaycee's name away. I therefor change his name to Freak. Fair play.

When defense types come up with this carp, just chant to yourself "doing her job, doing her job..." They need to exist for the innocent who get charged.

Can you believe with the details of that case he served only 1/5 of his sentence?

I would just love that shady. I truly miss playing that. Played it all summer long growing up with a friend. We rented a cottage next to hers on lake Michigan for years and we were both addicted. Grandma of course taught me that one. no one here plays anything. there are euchre tournaments and a bridge club. might join the bridge club. let me know when you are ready. sara

The stepfather said the missus is the one who pulled Jaycee into the car. One more nail.

This is a good example of why you need diversity (but I hate that word!) in LE. Men and women see different things, and people from different subcultures are more likely to spot when something is wrong when dealing with people from those subcultures... The campus cop said it was her "mom instinct" that told her there was a problem.

ps, one cop is from the city of Brentwood, and they are giving her a "hero" award today...

I know Bob-I missed the intro but figured she had to be defense. Thanks for bringing me back to earth. I just wish she would stay off the airwaves. The impact on folks already victimized is what makes me the craziest :beer:
