Thanks, Bill!

Maybe you're experiencing those weird glitches like I've been getting. It made the smilies show up in weird places - like replacing avatars and the reply button.

Couldn't agree more.

Qualifier, of course being a parent means the children need to be in bed before you imbibe liquid libations!!!

If you go back a few pages and read the vacuuming thread, you'll know how that goes here too.

May I have your wife's e-mail address?....or at least one week's supply of whatever she's slipping in your food?

So hubby comes home with this tale today:

His colleague has season tickets to the Oklahoma City Thunder NBA team... at the last game, his wife and kids didn't or couldn't go, so he sold two of the extra tickets..... to a woman from out of town who was visiting her family (now, details are sketchy here as I don't know where or how he hooked up with her to sell her the tickets... ) He mentioned to some of his buddies that he'd sold the tickets to a woman named Jesse Jane. If you need to, you might wiki her up - but be very careful if you use google, especially if you have kids around. He had no idea who she was. (good man!)

Hope his wife was understanding!

We'll be able to get a clearer picture if Godiva sales suddenly rise.

OK...time to make a work day go away and the only way to do that is get it started! Have a great day all. See you later!

Lisa, I think Nancy likes your avatar!

[Carolina]

Jim, I thought Cadbury chocolate came from Britain??

[East Bay Rider]

Nancy is up and out before I wake up. Checking in here while I start my morning is a good way to begin my day.

[unclesallie]

good morning! I read the Jesse Jane recap by Nancy from Lisa. So I went to the website. Truly Inspiring woman, until you listen to a couple of interviews, and as usual, mouth without brain makes what was errr(as Orchi would say) upright, down. In short, don't spoil the fantasy with any actual interaction with the young lady! I'll give her this much, she's figured out a way she can make money. Let's leave it at that.

Try Wilbur chocolates from Lititz, Pa. While you're there see if you can visit the rolex school. Go down to Columbia and visit the National Watch and Clock Museum. Come over to my house, for err, to visit and eat more chocolates.....bring Jimbiter69 along to clean up the mess!

Jim, luckily Cadbury eggs are easy to come by here, and around Easter the stores are well-stocked with a few different varieties of eggs - caramel and chocolate filled as well, I think. And you can also get chocolate Cadbury rabbits!

They're not too expensive. I guess these are the same Cadbury eggs you speak of? I'll read the packaging to see if they're imported - just bought some assorted eggs and rabbits for the girls...

What is wrong with you mate? Asking the lasses about their eggs. I will not even touch the subject of their creme eggs. Had a good Easter joke, but shall keep that one to myself.
