And the Oscar goes to the MMP!!!

May I suggest Steak Oscar? It seems kinda timely.

So this weekend saw all the weeds in our front beds replaced by tulips, primrose, salvia and phlox. I hear Spring is coming… a little bird told me so.

{{{{{lieu}}}}} - where ya been hiding, dude?!?!?!?!

Spring was temporarily shoved aside by nearly freezing temp this morning. And more to come the end of the week. Hope it doesn’t hurt my early-sprouting flower…

Was he nice…or a grouch? :stuck_out_tongue:
I’m in a VERY grouchy mood today. :mad:
Driving this morning; traffic jam, doing 0 mph, look down, when WHAM! WTF!!! I wasn’t even sure it was the guy behind me at first, or if I was just the front of a chain. I watch carefully to make sure he pulls over (he does, making a 90° turn into the car dealership). I pull into the next entrance, he pulls up to my car & gets out (wearing mauve pants & tie with a white dress shirt; not my fashion choice, but professionalish-looking). I start to pull out my phone to take a picture of his bumper, when he comes over, extends a hand, says he’s sorry, & asks for MY insurance info. Because of how he’s acting, I decide to call PD first & we can do the pictures & info exchange while waiting. He gets back into his car & says something about pulling out of the way; this confuses me as we’re in a parking lot & I don’t think we’re in the way but I’m distracted by the 911 operator asking me (unnecessary) questions. He pulls around the corner…& takes off! :mad: :mad:

Not only do I have to deal with this shit, but I need to pay my deductible because he committed a crime!..& the most important surveillance can was broken! :mad: :mad: :mad:
I’ve wanted to get a good dashcam; I’ll be doing that posthaste (but too late)!

Sounds like Sha Na Na; therefore, I vote for Bowser.

Why do you have doorknob to Swampy’s house? :confused:

I like Bowser. :slight_smile:

Dinner at your house sounds yummy Swampy! Poke roast is my favorite.

Very headachy today. My Indian name should be Naps with Dogs. (They’re just fine with the plan.)

Paint fumes are pretty much gone. The painter will be back tomorrow to finish the living room; by the time he finishes on Thursday he should have the living room, dining room, kitchen, and bedroom all done. The grey paint my wife picked for the living room is awesome.

Not only is he painting, but he’s going to install some light fixtures and ceiling fans, and most likely put some IKEA stuff together once we get back to the store and buy stuff and get it delivered.

Forgot to say, welcome to Bowser!

Also, sorry to hear about car woes Butters and Spidey. People suck. :mad:

Hi All! I’m home from work with the dog on my lap. Dinner will be left over Chineese. Sometimes, life is good. It’s the little moments that count.

Home. Supper will be baked cod, cornbread, and beets. Maybe some fruit, too.

I’s tahred - it was a busy day.

Mom, if you ever pass through NE Kansas give me a shout. I’d be happy to put up a Doper friend.

Neighbor, how long’s it been since you had yourself a big, thick, steaming bowl of Cod Oscar?

Well… that’s been too long.

I got something written, most of a granny square finished, and read a little of my book. Appropriately for this week’s title, it’s a biography of Oscar Wilde. :cool:

I don’t get the Sha Na Na/Bowser connection. is either a young’un or too old, not sure which

Bowser - he was a member of a 50’s style rock group called Sha Na Na. Chances are you’re much to young to know. But I’m sure they’re all over YouTube if you care to search.

I remember Bowser quite well. I am honored to be his namesake.

And with that, I bid you all a good night.

Dindin has been ingested. ‘Twas quite good if’n I do say so myself. There’s some poke left over. I envision it bein’ shredded and turned into bbq sammiches Thursday. Tomorrow is the Shrove Tuesday pancake supper at the church house. I am in charge of bacon and snausage. Wednesday is Ash Wednesday, so no meat. We must be somber and penitent on Wednesday.

I like Bowser for a nickname. Thus mote it be.

Spidey that sucks! Not a good day for Mumper vehicles.

I worked, I came home. Making baked fried chicken wit roasted **N.O.T.**s and blackeyed peas.

{{{{Butters}}}}

Sorry, Spidey.

I know who Bowser is. And I’m not old.:stuck_out_tongue:

And welcome and goodnight, Bowser!

Moooom, like you, I’m subcontracting some of the stuff that I have no business doing like the move this summer and hanging the living room drapes. Both were well worth it.

{{{butters and spidey}}}

butters, check to see if the scuff can be buffed. Your hubby may be able to give you a clue whether it’s possible.

spidey, do you have uninsured motorist coverage? That usually takes care of hit and runs. Your insurance company will nudge the local gendarmes.

Today was a sucky Monday.

I already knew that getting month end would be a priority. When I got to irk, I was informed by security that the restrooms on my end of the building were out of order (the odorhad greeted me already) meaning that I had to go halfway across the plant to the loo (about 1.5 city blocks).

Around 10, I reached for the lipstick in my pocket and discovered a loooooong tear to the right of the hip pocket on that side. :smack: That meant a trip home to remedy the wardrobe malfunction. I now have another pair of all cotton jeans on the spring clothing list. I bought three pair of cotton spandex ones a couple of years ago and this is the third pair to give out in the same place. This means the dreaded trip to the fat lady store to try on what they have in stock (because of issues like metal mouse recently had with ordering them online, jeans are something I definitely try on). Warning: clothing rant! Why, oh why, do the companies that manufacture large ladies’ clothes think that we all like stretchy jeans that have been embroidered and bedazzled to death, blouses with loud prints, ruffles, gathers, rhinestones and weird necklines? Give me boot cut cotton jeans, polo-ish shirts in plain but somewhat feminine colors and simple cable knit sweaters? (rant over)

So much for my sucky Monday. :stuck_out_tongue: Time for supper.

How else would I get the Candiru into the cement pond?

That’s just mean!
