You Never Get A Second Chance....

#1 Post by Evil Squirrel » Thu Nov 27, 2008 8:59 am

To make a first impression.....

Squirrels are the architects of forests, the planters of trees, nature's own acrobats and show a zest for life that can inspire us. Every day should be National Squirrel Appreciation Day!

--squirrelmama (10/3/07)

Many of these (squirrel) migrations were probably caused by food shortages as well as habitat overcrowding. We solved that for them. We not only reduced their habitat, we reduced the whole species by about 90%. The least we can do now is share a little birdseed with them.

I like it!


On another note, perhaps you need to shop at Mecca for a new computer. You will
love a laptop once you have one. (of course, I'm assuming you don't!)

I have used my Mom's laptop before, and I do NOT like it. It is nice if there's nothing else to browse the internet on, but it does not make up for a nice, regular old computer...

Plus, I can not imagine trying to do drawings on it....

They have a wireless mouse you can use with your laptop. You should think about it.

Why would I want one? The only value it would have is when I go on my baseball trips, which is twice a year....

I get another $417 bonus on my check in 2 weeks. Are you trying to spend it for me....?

I like being at my desk with all my notebooks. It was a mess back in the WTVT® days when I had to sit in the comfy chair and post.

Since when did computers become outdated? They are just as in vogue now as iceboxes....

Did you make sure and brine the one-eyed possum before you cooked it?

I did not brine my turkey (or my one-eyed possum), but it turned out fabuloso! Mushy stuffing from inside the bird and crispy dressing baked separately, green bean casserole, mashpoes, sweetpoes w/marshmallows, flaky biscuits, canned cranberry sauce (can't help it, I just love it), the best gravy ever (threw in some peices of the long tubey thing (is that a gizzard?) after simmering it and shrooms for a while in broth & drippings, 3 kinds of pie, and visiting daughter whipped up her famous banana nut bread.

This year I am thankful for good health, wonderful family & friends, gas prices, and the one-eyed possum. Hubby said, don't forget about the one-eyed snake.

Hope everyone had a terrific Thanksgiving!
