ems please tell me those three people have very sore jaws from where you whacked em up beside the head, cause they all deserve a head whackin’. Some people need a clue by four or two to teach 'em about nosiness. :mad:
I’ll be off work all next week. Mon-Weds, FCD and I will be doing a bunch of chores that he won’t be able to do after his surgery. My inlaws will arrive Tues night, and Thursday at 1:40, the doc will start cutting on my sweetie. Yeah, I’m looking forward to that. <sigh>
Meanwhile, I’ve completed my Planning for Retirement Training - good info there. Now I just need to apply it and start planning for my retirement. The plans will determine exactly when I can retire. Sometime after Jan 23, 2010…
Yes, everyone should have vibrating pigs (that would look better with some sort of special effect). I love my vibrating pig. The world is a better place on account of vibrating pigs. Since we’re not so far removed, geographically, I’d be more than happy to loan you the use of my vibrating pig sometime when I am not using my vibrating pig.
…and this little piggy went to bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb…
Looks down at the bottom of the page… ah, now we’re getting somewhere…

Nope, still showing jewelry ads for me.
T’chuh! That’s practically the whole point of Circus Peanuts. Plus, the perversity of bright orange peanuts.
Which reminds me of the peeps jesus. I’m out of official peeps white sugar-- jesus has got to be either lavender or pink. If I go all unofficial, I can put orangey-red chamoy on his boo-boos. He’ll be rather spicy-sweet mind you.
I made meatloaf sunday-- quit copying me Swampy. Nothing much actually happening except so much work I’m thinking of making the advanced students grade papers. I miss my T.A.! And **vibrating pigs ** too. Ah, for the days when **vibrating pigs ** ran free as the wind.
VunderBob, do you two go to any sort of support group? That can help, if your wife feels up to it, I s’pose. Maybe.
I was all ready to come in here and tell people to get moving because we were only on page 2 and - lo and behold! - between the brief appearance from Rue (::waves cheerfully at Rue:: ) and the wonder of vibrating pigs, we’ve made it to page 4.
I’m feeling almost human today. Although I couldn’t sleep last night either. Is insomnia catching?
Have to go out and mow the lawn because it’s WAAAAAY overdue and it’s supposed to rain tonight and be cold tomorrow. Plus, I was considering starting some more plants. Hopefully I can get all of that done quickly.
Back later.

So ** Shibb**, is your vibrating pig like the one on this page?
I’m liking the Squishy Foot Massage Pillow down at the bottom myself.
Now I’ve got four ads for jewelry. Lessee:

Shibb’s vibrating pig is plushy with massaging nubbies on it. And it’s pink. And big enough to fit in the small of the back to do its vibratory magic. Theoretically. For all I know, he uses it to scare the dog…
There’s probably something real preverted and wrong there, but I can’t quite figure out just what…
FCM I’m sure FCD will come through with flying colors. Well, the pain meds will make him see flying colors anyways. 
Seriously, (what, I can be when I want!) let him know he’ll be in my thoughts and prayers for a quick healing and bein’ back to his old ways real soon. You should make a meatloaf for the inlaws. Can you still tell I want meatloaf? Guess I’m gonna have to thaw out some ground beast and make one.
ACBG is still workin! 
Looks like I ain’t gonna get to see him tonight. That’ll be two nights in a row! It ain’t fair! Ain’t fair at all! Bless his heart, he can’t help it cause his work is once again short staffed. Even though he’s management, he jumps in to help when it gets busy. Poor thing has to see a patient at 7:30 tonight to start her on an IV thingy for some meds. Did I ever mention he is the Administrator for a home health agency and a RN?
No, that’s not it. Not sure that there is a pic anywhere. Tupug ixnay on the ewelryja and the ads will go awaya. FCM describes it well, though.
Before, when I was saying “vibrating pigs” alot, there was an ad for naughty t-shirts and another for some sort of novelties.
Just for Lissla–here’s the recipe for Tibetan Curried Potatoes. Nummy!
1/2 teaspoon Sichuan peppercorns
1 2-inch long piece of fresh ginger, peeled and finely minced
3 or 4 cloves of garlic, peeled and finely minced
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp cayenne (or other fiery pepper)
1 tsp salt
4 Tbsp (1/2 stick) clarified butter (see note)
6 medium Yukon Gold or Red Bliss potatoes, peeled
2 Tbsp soy sauce
Garnish:
1 scallion, including the green part, trimmed and minced
Several sprigs of fresh cilantro, minced
Boil the peeled potatoes for 15 minutes, then cut into cubes.
Heat the peppercorns in a small, ungreased skillet over medium heat until they begin to darken and release their aroma. Turn them into a small mortar or onto a chopping board and pulverize to a coarse powder.
Mix the pepper powder, ginger, garlic, turmeric, cayenne and salt together to form a paste. Heat the clarified butter in a large skillet and blend in the spices. Cook and stir for a few minutes, to let the butter become fully seasoned. Meanwhile, toss the potato cubes in the soy sauce until it has all been absorbed.
Add the potatoes to the skillet and turn up the heat to medium high. Cook until the potatoes have a crunchy brown coating on the outside and a meltingly soft interior. Use a spatula to turn them constantly so that they brown on all sides, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Add the minced scallion and cilantro and cook for a minute to allow the garnish to wilt and cling to the potatoes.
NOTE: To make clarifed butter, put the butter in a heatproof measuring cup and set it on the rack in a preheated warm oven. When the butter has melted and the solids have separated out, remove the measuring cup from the oven and carefully pour off the clear liquid into the skillet. Discard the solids.
Makes 4 servings
Pig pig pig pig pig pig.
The word 'pig has ceased to have meaning.
Yes, pig is not really doing the trick here. But the phone is apparently rin-ging off of the hook.
This little piggy went to market…
How come the google ads show nothing for Vibrating Pig or even Epiletic Cop?
( I was up yesterday from 3am until 1130pm. Fighting a damn migraine all day until it took the A-bomb of RX to kill it off. Leaving me foggy and having to go bowling. 136/91/109. I blame the 91 on the pharmacuetical industry.)
Crap. Sorry, buddy. These damned threads move to fast.
Lissla apparently got screwed for some reason, so I’ve learned my lesson. I ain’t mailing nothin’ to nobody no more.
I think they must have reconfigured the bots cause I ain’t seen NUTTIN about no vibrating pigs sos I quit!
But magic, luscious as the taters sound…how can they be curried taters when there’s no curry innum??? 
Now, now…you are just seeing our faithful homeland security forces at work…saving our canadian friends from the ravages of cider doughnuts. That is all.
So who IS guest MMPing next Monday?
Tupug
Taters I can’t shut her up, but I have something that will keep her from looking at your 'puter screen. Its real use is to shade glare on the monitor.
Its 3 folding leaves that velcro to the monitor. Its about 18 inches long…
I know I’m not explaining it very well. I’ll take so pictures.
Anyway, if you want it its yours. I don’t remember where you live, but if it isn’t convienent t meet, e-mail me an address, and I’ll mail it. I’ll be back in a few with pictures.
Ok, here are three pictures of the CRT Shade thingy First, second, and last
Let me know if you want it. We have two and I now have a flat screen.
I know what you’re talking about, but it still makes me <snerk>.
The postage machine repairman is here, and as I surf the MMP and the giant “Straight Dope” sign comes up, I can’t help but wonder if he’s a Doper?
