Welcome to Plodchat

Sounds good to me. I agree, let’s call VB, he’ll come, I’m sure. Anyone else? We can make a day of it! Where’d drop go, anyway? And everyone else?

Hey dropzone! Way to paint me into a corner!! Do I get an award for ‘Plotchat’ if it gets really hot??? :smiley:

Which by the way, it is here in Atlanta, HOT. But, hey, it’s the middle of June, it’s SUPPOSED to be hot. We had a couple of cool days and I even cut off the air conditioner but it’s back in the 90’s again, gotta stay :cool:

My oldest son, DJ is home from college and bored silly. He went out with some friends (ever love someone but are kinda glad when they leave for awhile??!) to try to see the Braves game tonight. I doubt they’ll pull off going with no tickets, but at least they’ll have fun trying. The house is unbelievably quiet without him!

Ahhh, this is more my speed…excellent idea, folks!

It’s hot and really humid here. My poor woofer was miserable. Looked like it was going to rain, but it blew over and stayed stifling.

I ran a bunch of errands, then like a fool worked in the gardens during the worst of the heat. Almost made myself ill.

It didn’t help that a bug bit me right on the eyelid, so I look like Bill The Cat. But how the hell are you supposed to put Cutters on your eyes?

It’s cooled off now w/ dusk, so the woofer is asleep and I’m still sucking down iced tea.

Truly boring,
Veb

Isn’t that awful how vulnerable we can be to bugs, but boy, in your eye! I’d drop the bug story and go for having fought with someone in a parking lot for the VERY best parking spot ever! I’ve always loved the scene in ‘Fried Green Tomatoes’ when Kathy Bates goes ‘Psycho’ on the young woman’s car that beat her out of ‘her’ parking place.

But, Veb, you’re anything EXCEPT boring or plodding, however being that we are so slow, we wouldn’t do anything other than make you feel welcome anyway!!

I’d love some iced tea about now, but I think I’ll keep downing my water. I sweat like a trucker! :frowning:

Thanks, Auntie Pro! You’re sweet to say so.

After a loooong, cool shower and soak, I felt tons better and figured out how to veeery carefully dab on a bit of After Bite. At least the swelling and itching have subsided a bit.

Like your idea for an explanation! Damn, it sure sounds better than the truth!

Veb

Dark

  • Another speedy person in ‘plodchat’!! * Good to hear it’s dark there too, aha! I’d forecast continuing darkness, but we have a streetlight right in front of our house, so it’s darkness interspersed with some light!

I’m glad that you’re feeling better, Veb. I always use ‘Deep Woods’ Off, but I still get bit even through my clothes. I remember once reading Unka Cecil saying that mosquitos and their swarmy ilk find us by our ‘warmth’. I’ve been trying to figure out what kind of instrument we would need to ice ourselves down before yardwork. I’m thinking along the lines of a machine that gives off that dry ice smoky effect!! Yeah, THAT’s the ticket! :wink:

Shhh Veb - no talking about showers and soaks. Bratman is lurking and the thoughts may shut down his brain. This is plodchat after all.

And on that note, the weather here is wet with a forecast of rain. Don’t you just love coming into winter in Australia?

So, dpr, how’s life in Oz. You from there or did you get transported?

Ok, everyone, how did I become the MPSIMS perv? Geez, make one little comment about your eyes glazing over and falling into a trance at the sight of big breasted women in wet t-shirts with water glistening off their cleavage and . . . water glistening. . . cleavage . . .

::eyes glaze over, starts drooling::

007, are you looking for a real answer to that?

Sorry about the hijacking in the other sites. i am new to this and don’t know all the rules. I know, i shouldn’t use being a newbie as an excuse, but it is the only one I have. i guess i wil learn or get in trouble, Right.

Don’t sweat it, hijacking happens. I should’ve known better I’ve posted here enough to see it happen before. BTW, the stuff about my eyes glazing over comes from the waterfight in case you were wondering.

I’m pretty sure it’s that thread that got me known as the perv. Running around naked there didn’t help my image much.

Why do people care about this dress code thing?

What dress code? I never heard of a dress code.

It has been thrown around a bit today and I am just curious. It is not important.

Plodchat, huh? Might be my kind of place.
Weather? Lots of weather in Key West. Some rain nearly every day. But more sun an hour later. Just never go below without tightening your rigging. Come up during a bit of rain and get hit with everything you left topside.

The dress code was probably a joke in another thread that some people picked up on. I’m still hearing about Wally and the gerbil incident. I’ll try to find it and post it for you here. It’s famous.

Here it is, Nika, the famous gerbil story

BratMan, my dear. Considering the pics of you I just saw in your welcome to Nika thread, you can continue to drool over my, I mean, me as often as you wish. :wink:

And Salt to You, welcome aboard! :slight_smile:

chuckles @ dropzone No, didn’t get the free all-expenses paid ticket. Had to do it the tough way and get born into freedom.

Btw the weather today is near perfect. A wonderfully blue sky with the merest hint of a gentle breeze. sigh I think I’ll be spending most of today (public holiday) in my hammock.

Hey PB - how are managing without Mr Bear so far? Must be hard. Well, at least you’ve got us. (Oh god that coud be depressing for you)

Welcome aboard salt.

And sorry about the tiger trap Brat…
