Let's not forget the extra note, that you must allow your good looks to be pimped out at anytime, to any media(whether you agree with their ideals or not), any public event, knowing and agreeing to being sexually harassed in front of a camera to be saved for all eternity.

Great post, made me laugh this morning!

I will be thinking about you. Have fun!!! I have this sunscreen umbrella that fits on my scooter, and an electric fan if I need it. I have a cup holder. I can fit a cooler easily under my legs. Let's not forget, I never have to look for a seat. And I work up a nice breeze when I move. You "walkers" have it hardddddddd!!!

I have to go deal with this donkey or try to. Trying to figure out the best thing for it. Fight the good fight, while I am gone.

I am begining to think that Nici realllllllly likes me.

Hey, there's a debate going on on another board about the article below. So, maybe yall wnat to join in the heated debate. My wife is on it cuz she thinks i am on them too much



BLOGS AND BLOGGERS :
People use Blog sites in a myriad of ways. There is no standard way to use it. There isn't a rule book about the proper use. Most Bloggers issue statements concerning political views (Politico.com) and reference alternative sites focused on community service or a venue for opinionated diatribe. Most of us even ignore the question "What are you doing?" most of the time. Because blogging is an evolving community it can be complicated to determine whether a specific behavior is appropriate or not but you can find behavior and usage patterns emerging. Many bloggers are seeking friendships, although this is unfortunate for those looking to discuss issues. A cabal of sorts ensue and life’s petty issues enter the blog-0-sphere. Recently, a co-editor entered the Bravo TV site in order to review “Top Chef” for article conveyance. Clearly, many bloggers are somewhat lonely, and form an odd and pathetic family of sorts. Sad because one has no idea with whom they are communicating, and some go as far as indicating “love” or “love ya”. Sad, but true!!!

Earlier on the bloggers (using PollDaddy's nifty poll feature) I posted a poll asking "Is it okay to Blog and love? How long should someone remain on one Blog”?
The responses have varied but most people find that those that blog about a show for over a month are “lonely and pathetic “ and seeking something that they are missing in “Unvirtual life“. The poll found that 97% percent do not blog regularly. If they do blog, they do so for a day or two. Those that remain on blogs for weeks, or even months may find that they are socializing less in the real world. They are “disconnected” according to John Fries, Professor of psychology, Des Moines. “ There are many people who are very lonely and hoping to connect online. Some of these users of blogs truly believe that the other bloggers are friends. This is concerning” The disconnect is becoming alarming, as the social strata is seeing more of these individuals lost in a virtual setting, seeking invisible friends beyond the keyboard.

You can see the poll and comment on it here.

Chef Daddy that is interesting but if you read my response to Jack123 you would know I'm much too busy here to take up another cause. Thanks for the info though.

And by the way Blogs are fun but this is a "Message Board" and since I post on the boards I am a "Poster" not a "Blogger".

FYI, Blog stands for "Web Log" which is more of an online diary. Blogs are more of a monologue. This Board is more of a dialogue.

Jack123, Once more you have pointed out the flaws in my previous posts.
If Shepard Smith is in fact a closted gay man that is truly sad. But at least he is making money from FOX News not placing a "Media Buy" and giving money to FOX News.
It's ironic because The Advocate is running a cover story about the pressures of being gay in the news anchor field.
http://advocate.com/issue_story_ektid53765.asp

And as far as Fox News goes you should read this article in the Advocate (the magazine Jackie was on the cover of a few years ago).
Here is an excerpt:
"It appears that once again an individual on Fox News Network is preaching from the pulpit hatred and intolerance. Radio host John Gibson's seething mockery of Heath Ledger's death provided yet another forum to bash gay people."
http://advocate.com/letters_detail_ektid51845.asp

And you also were right about FOX Broadcasting (which I love BTW) being more liberal.
But they still have a ways to go....
From the NYDailyNews article:Fox gets 'F' for gay portrayals
"Fox isn't doing so well when it comes to portraying gays and lesbians on the small screen, according to a new study from the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation."
http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/t...portrayals.html

And just want to state once again... I am here because of Jackie's behavior on the show Work Out.

My pointing out her selling her wares on ultraconservative FOX News is in answer to you accusing me of being a bigot and homophobe, in your attempts to defend Jackie.

That settles it...I am buying a scooter. Or Ellen pimped out this cooler once that you can ride...maybe one of those . Good luck with you 'arse'.

As for you and NiCi, we could always plan a double wedding.

You are a fountain of knowledge. I learn something new from you every day.

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha !

Hey NiCi...should I start planning a wedding for you as well? What's up with you and Booglie?

Nici we could show your wedding in animated emoticons.

For those boycotting Work Out here is a synopsis what you missed.

I think you are wonderful! Don't you remember that one day I am going to show up at the farm suitcase in one hand and plate of cookies in another and just stay? But I do remember you mentioning a significant other and I am not home wrecker so will gladly stay as cookie baker, feeder of goat triplets, female companion and general helper around the farm.

Besides, although I have not directly mentioned my sexuality (I thought my avatar might have tipped it off or my responses in posts), I am (gasp!) a female hetero! I did not directly mention it up till now because I do not feel it defines me, do not feel it should divide people and do not feel it has any bearing on my reaction to Jackie's recent behavior on the show (which I have been viewing for over two seasons).

...can I still bring my cookies to the farm?

I immagine the haters will pounce on this but I would point out that I enjoyed watching Work Out for over two seasons and thought Jackie was a strong woman who was doing great things and who had fought through some difficult things. I was rooting for her to move on from what I saw to be a distructive relationship with Mimi and to heal her relationship with her mother. I wished her success. I saw some disturbing patterns start last season, but thought it was just her way of working through some of her issues. That is why it was so jarring and majorly dissapointing this season when she came back and was so... well self centered and mean to everyone around her. All of a sudden, the one I had been rooting for, and hoping success for had turned into a monster who was hurting others (many of them innocent clients) and I had had enough! THAT is why I have the reaction I do. Not because of sexuality or anything else, no matter what may be said by the haters.

See my reply to her post.

Can we still be buds too?

Now you are jsut showing off, you little monkey bottom!

Too funny. When do you sleep?

Oh, My! I have created a monster! (OK, a very cute and talented monster, but a monster none the less!). Why did I ever give him that webiste?!!!

Our board will never be boring again! From now on it will have little smiley creatures cavorting all over it thanks to our friend Liam!

OF COURSE! Most of our friends are straight. You can come here and be our French Maid. Maybe you are only 'a cocktail or two away from being gay'. I make a mean Jack and Diet!!! We could dress up up and you could become our Cher barbie. Liam and JC have a fake barbie...we could have the real thing!!! Oh my gosh I'm calling Alex right now!!!

Did you get them? I am going to delete them as soon as you guys get 'em. Except for this one for DrB...

OK, I'll be your real Cher barbie (you will have to supply the long black wig and sparkly cutout dress), but I aint sittin on top of no christmas tree (pine needles up the butt, I don't think so!)! And if I am your maid I aint dust bustin no cat nip (aint bathin no goat-cats either). And another thing, if that goat-cat attacks me, either it goes or I go!

Oh NiCi, of course I remember all of our "cute boys from SIUAD" conversations,- I always knew you were a friend of "a friend of dorothy's".

BTW I have some dirt on one of the Step It Up Boys...

Liam, you big tease, dish it up then!
And don't erase the smileys - I have not had time to copy them yet!
Not all of us are as fast as you (and you can take that in any way you want!)
Man. all the regular smilies seem so BORING now!

Sorry! A little of those goes a loooong way. Gave me a wicked headache! I can always send to your email addy (as JC calls it).

Well, I don't know how you feel about this kinda thing...
but there are nekkid pics of one of them online...

I am laughing so hard about your mooning smiley... you really are a little monkey bottom my dear Liam!

there were discusions that Michael had done the nekkid pic thing. If it is Miguel, well, that might be enough to turn me off of men for good!

That's ok...I deleted it! LOL!!!

.

.

No, I've determined JC is alright!



Daisy has a toy carrot with a pouch for catnip but she prefers it empty. Its an awesome carrot!

I've actually seen the nekkid Michael pics. Not bad, I say!

I can't believe you said Miguel & nekkid in the same sentence... thanks

This the author of the "List" post.

Well Howdee, right back at you!

I can't believe that you took the time (and effort) to read all those pages! I'm impressed!!! At least you really know what has been going on and you know probably more than you want to about a lot of people around here!

And Liam told you about this board? A friend of a friend...

So, now that you know so much about us, tell us a bit about yourself! We know that you are a good reader, you know good people (Liam), you have a lovely accent, and that you are kind and polite.

Which posts were yours from the other website (the letter about LIST perhaps?)? Ah, I see by Liam's post that was yours - excellent, by the way! It is a pleaseure to read the author!!!!

I told you...'one or two cocktails away...'

Let me clarify the cher thing...we don't want you to loook like Cher. I would prefer you look like Erika, maybe in tight spandex or Angie Harmon. (Guess what color hair Alex has?) Alex would prefer blondes thus we would dress you up weekly to resemble whomever. Sitting on the tree is not required but taming the shrew is. Alex seems to be pretty good with the dust buster so she can do that. I do all the cooking because she tried to kill me one time cooking toe food and telling me before I took a bite that it was sword fish. I spit it all over thetable and she laughed and laughed. One time she made lamb burgers and didn't tell me either and I thought the meat was bad. Now for Morris attacking you, I pray he will so we can get rid of him.

Let us know when you would like to start and Al will get you a plane ticket. Our house is pretty big so you will have a lot of dusting to do. But there is a central vac. so you don't have to lug a vac all over the house. By the way, is the dressing up extra or does it go with the cleaning rate. We have a guest house in back so you will have your own 6'x6' house. LOL!!

For some reason people appear and disappear all the time- I've learned to ignore most of the "who is online"... at the bottom of the screen- it's not really accurate.

I thought "That boy has nothin' to be ashamed of..."

Welcome Pan!!! Did you pay your dues yet? If not just send it to me in care of this post site and then you can say whatever you want. Most people in here are really nice and thoughtful and insightful. But just like Dumas, TX...Welcome! 16,000 nice folks and 1 or 2 who are just plain mean. Hope you enjoy your stay.

We call them 3 beer queers...

Just what does Daisy do with that empty carrot?

.

[

Oh, dear! Everything was going just fine... It was sounding like the dream job and like everyone was going to be so happy and then IT happened...
You just HAD to do it didn't you?
You mentioned...
(gasp!) ...
DUSTING
(and a LOT of it?!!!!)
Heck No!
THAT, My dear, is what they call a deal breaker!
I am a fourth generation hater-of-dusting!
The only reason women in our family have daughters is so that they have someone they can make do the dusting!

*stomps off in a storm of dust that has built up in her house since she has no daughter to pawn the dusting chores off to*

DrB! I'm shocked!!!

Not really... but heres a funny story.

Are you familiar with the Veggie Tales DVDs?
Basically they are Christian Biblical parables with animated vegetables as the cast.
And remember when Tickle Me Elmo was popular?

Well the makers of the Veggie Tales decided to copy that...
which of their characters did they choose to giggle and jiggle and laugh?


Wait for it....

the Cucumber! I kid you not a vibrating cucumber toy for children!
I wish I had purchased one before they pulled 'em from the market...

That reminds me of Torchsong Trilogy when the gay leads were looking to become foster parents.

Question:"How old should the child be?"
Answer: "Old enough to dust!"

It sure isn't accurate. I probably appear online all the time. I keep the

webpage up and come and go. When I return to the computer I recycle

the page and up come the new messages. Down fall for that is

appearing online all the time.

No more diet coke when I'm reading your posts!! It hurts my nose too much when you make me laugh!!

And diet coke is hard to clean off the monitor and keyboard! Want some paper towels?

Thanks!

Here is what I was talking about y'all...
http://www.sportsoutloud.com/new/cover-sto...kie-warner.html

Returning for season three of Work Out, Jackie Warner continues demanding the best

Whether it’s due to the catfights and fist throwing, or crying and kissing, reality television continues to draw an audience. Reality producers will tell you that the formula for successful reality TV is fighting, crying, and sex. That shouldn’t be a surprise to those who watch. This formula, however, may not apply directly to Bravo and Jackie Warner.
When starring on reality TV, most participants sign away their life, literally giving complete and total control to the producers, and editors. Of course, the producers and editors “cut and paste” what we see. Once again, this process does not sit well with Warner, star of Bravo’s reality show Work Out.

A different kind of reality star A millionaire by age 22, a successful businesswoman and top dog among a crew of alpha trainers, control is Warner’s middle name. But then again, this is still reality TV.
“I have contractual control, of course,” Warner makes exceedingly obvious, admitting that doesn’t mean she has full control of what is shown. But, unlike many reality TV stars, this one knows the business, and knows that it is her behavior that is the ultimate control factor. After all, producers can’t use what you don’t give them.
“Sometimes I am taken out of context, but for the most part I think they get elements of my personality.”- Sports Out Loud Excerpt

WELL SAID! I TOTALLY agree!!!!

Now, the truly important question... do you really ride a Harley?
