I still say trick or treating as one of Jehovah's Witnesses would be great...
One halloween, my very witness brother stopped by (dont think he even knew it was Halloween). I had all the candy out, and the kids were all dressed up, then I asked him "hey, what are you going as a Jehovah's Witness". The look on his face was priceless, and yes if looks could kill I'd be dead and gone.

It's because the guy looks like he's "boning" the watermelon.
OMG, it really does. These are all too funny!
in the 16th, and 17th centuries, everything had to be transported by ship and it was also before commercial fertilizer's invention, so large shipments of manure were common.. it was shipped dry, because in dry form it weighed a lot less than when wet, but once water (at sea) hit it, it not only became heavier, but the process of fermentation began again, of which a by-product is menthane gas.. as the stuff was stored below decks in bundles you can see what could (and did) happen.
menthane began to build up below decks and the first time someone came below with a lantern, 'ka.........boooom!'.
several ships were destroyed in this manner before it was determined just what was happening.. after that, the bundles of manure were always stamped with the term 'ship high in transit' on them which meant for the sailors to stow it high enough off the lower decks so that any water that came into the 'hold' would not touch this volatile cargo and start the production of methane.. thus evolved the term "s.h.i.t.
Where in the world would a story like this come from, beats the shit out a me. I must admit it entertained me, but then again, I got shit for brains...
in the past i visited bethel and got to 'tour' around.
here men & women worked their asses off every single day - a full 8 & 1/2 hours a day.
they had to make sure they were up at the crack of dawn to attend the reading of the day text.

Do they teach you how to wipe your A$$ when you go to the bathroom too??? Shish, talk about your control!

OMG, this after there was just another earthquake in southern Cal (a smaller one) just on Sunday. YIKES! My brother lives in Sacramento, better call my mom.
i hope this thread receives a lot of responses.
not because i am egotistical.
heck, really, i like any sort of film.
| Life is Beautiful. This one is Italian, and it's actually better to watch it in Italian and read the subtitles- the dubbed English version loses something, IMO. The ending always makes me cry, which I hate to do, but this movie is just that beautiful. | |
YAY!! This gets my vote. I also cried like a baby during this movie!
i bought hubby clothes (boring, i know) and am probably going to buy him some cologne too.
i love obsession night its yummy!
what are you planning on doing with, for, to, your spouse or s.o.
On Sunday, I will hang out in my pj's and watch telly all day.
Actually sounds like a great way to spend a Sunday to me. Sorry about your father, and you are not cranky, so there!
i mean a specific location that you would go to time and again to just sit and look and enjoy?
or a favorite vacation destination?.
i love the cascade mountains as example.
Since our kids are so small, we do Disneyland every year (and probably will for the next 10 years or so). But every year, on the way home, we make it a point to stop at Pacific Beach in San Diego. We have our favorite spot, a little restaruant that is outside on the beach, we eat breakfast, walk up and down the beach and the boardwalk. I love it!
