    Riley - Thank you, that video was hysterical!!

    I'm so sorry to hear about Jenn - while I never "met" her on here I have seen a few of her posts.  My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family.

    CS - Your little chloe sounds adorable.  I can just see the hyper little terror attacking the poor cat and the cats bored expression.  When we first got Hoover we had another dog Fred, much much bigger @ 90 lbs then Hoovers puppy wieght of 10.  Well Hoover would pester the heck out of poor Fred.  He would chase him around the chair and bite him in the arse.  One day Fred caught on and turned and bit Hoover in the arse.  If only you could have seen the shocked expression from Hoover!!  Not to mention he cried like Fred bit his arse off.  My hubby and I still laugh over it. 

    Friends called me around 7 last night.  Invited me out to see a band a co-workers son was in.  I can't tell you the last time I was in center city, in a bar watching a band with friends.  We had a lot of fun.  Today I'm off to do a 5k with a friend of mine.  Now this is not a real 5k like Titan.  We'll be on treadmills and it will just be the 2 of us but it is something we are doing with an online group.  I hope to finish somewhere near a 30 min but really don't think that's going to happen.

    Titan - Do you realize sometime this weekend probably or maybe early this week your thread is going to hit 15000 posts!!!!!  That's pretty darn amazing!!  You need to make yourself something special with your Rum to celebrate.  I'd like my Rum in a Pina Colada with a little umbrella.

    An african ambassador visited Russia and was entertained by his opposite number, the Russian ambassador. For three days, the African ambassador was wined, dined, and generally treated to the best hospitality that Russia had to offer.
    On the last day of his visit, the Russian ambassador said, "As your stay is coming to an end, it's time for you to play our traditional game, Russian roulette. One of the six chambers of this gun is loaded - you spin the cylinder, point the gun at your head, and pull the trigger."
    This phased the African slightly, but he was a proud man of a warrior people, and to show fear would be unthinkable. Both men took their guns, spun, and pulled the triggers.
    Both chambers were empty, and both ambassadors breathed a sigh of relief.
    The African ambassador was impressed with the courageous game, and thought hard about the subject before the Russian Ambassador was due to visit his country the next year.
    When the visit came, the African ambassador treated the Russian with all hospitality, until the final day of his stay. Leading him to a private room in the palace, the African ambassador spoke, "Now, time for you to sample our game, African roulette". He then led the Russian into the room, the only occupants of which were six stunning and naked women.
    The African ambassador said, "These women are the most beautiful members of one of our tribes. Any one of them will give you a oral sex take your pick".
    The Russian was not entirely averse to this idea, but he couldn't see the connection with Russian roulette. He said, "Well, ok, great, but where's the roulette part? Where's the danger?"
    With a big grin on his face, the African ambassador answered:
    "One of them's a cannibal."

    Titan - you really made me laugh when you said you were to "impatient" to play poker. Patience is not my long suit, but now I realize that maybe loving the game was a life lesson to teach me some. I actually sit at the table reading a book while I play. Marking 6/23 on the calender so I can clap my thighs in support. Tell hubby that I'm tight as a tick too, but Captain Morgan Private Stock is worth the price, and so smooth it rolls itself into the house, heheheheheheeh



    Riley - still laughing at the video! BTW, crate was my first thought too.



    McCrimmon - you go girl! *claps thighs*. The only time I ever plan to "run" in this lifetime will involve either someone with a knife or a gun.



    Pray for me today ladies, lol. It is raining buckets here and I'm off to my nephews outdoor H.S. graduation party. This is the first time I will have to be in a social situation with my Ex and his wife. I'm ok with ex, but this is the woman that he was having an affair with. To let you know how ballsy she is, I threw a Valentine's Day party for my hubby at his job, and found out long afterwards that she was at the party. Also found that when my Dad died 2 months after we seperated she insisted on being part of the company honor guard at the funeral, because he was "her boyfriend". (Company sends an honor guard to all funerals. His boss called and asked if I wanted to refuse it and I did. I only found out later, the reason they had called me)

    The most diplomatic phrase I can up with if she insists on being introduced is "it's interesting to meet you!". You DO NOT want to know my knickname for her! It would get me kicked off the board by the moderators! Pray for me. *big a**ed evil grin*

    kathyrn.... good luck today.  And rise above the beatch... you are bigger and better than she will ever be.  She is not fit to clean your shoes.   But I'd bet you'd just love to slap her upside the head Laughing  And dont forget, if your Ex had an affair with her... one day he is sure to do the same to her - statistical fact.   Revenge is sweet and best served cold.

    Let us know how you get on...

    Navy - thanks for letting us know about Jenn3. She's a lovely women. I had the privilege of meeting her in New Orleans during a family trip for New Years 2011. 

    I hope everyone's doing well. I've been out of commission with the flu. I'm on the mend now and am trying to catch up on all your posts this past week.

    Oh dear Kathryn, you are not alone.  There is one woman out there that I have a few "special" nicknames for, too.  I hope that She NEVER crosses my path, again.  I am afraid that I would have no self control.  One of us would end up in the hospital and one of us in jail.  And since I vowed after MX that I never wanted to be in the hospital again, I guess it would be me in the jail!!!

    Heather..if you can do 30 minutes for a 5K that is awesome...a 10 min mile!  That is where I am right now..hoping to get to a 9 but who knows....I just keep running a hope that I will get faster...remember to extend your legs...I keep forgetting to do that and it really helps.

    Cocker..I saw the Queen Mother on TV day...thought of you...My DH thinks she is a little uptight..but I guess she has a right to be....I would be a little grouchy if I had a daughter in law like Camilla..lol..

    If anyone hears from Jenn please pass it on..I sent her a pm but not sure if she will respond.

    Kathryn...I think you can swear on here...no problem... one of my posts was reported here once...I called someone a **SS ..h***l...yeah..I should have stepped back and just turned off the computer but I didn't...it was someone that considered chemo the worse thing you can do to yourself and I took exception to that...she obviously wasn't tn....but that is way in the past...no harm done. I've been good ever since...

    I agree with you about the Captain....when we go out that is what we get...but for "at home" we have the cheap stuff

    *waves hi to Sugar*. Feel better!



    Well ladies I'm home and you don't have to bail me out of jail Navymom. I could feel all your *evil grins* and I didn't slip and refer to her as HSC even once.

    (and no I didn't have to interact with her in the slightest.). She sat with my ex and didn't interact with ANYONE. I'm a huggy-kissy type who interacts with EVERYONE.



    It actually was rather sad. My ex looked horrible. He has put on about 60 lbs and looks haggard and old. ( my ex is 13 years younger than me. I went thru freaking cancer this year and look better than he does).



    I did do a *gigglesnort" when I saw his wife. I think she may have felt a little threatened that I was going to be there. Who in their right mind shows up at an outdoor cookout, in 50 degree weather, wearing a sleeveless top with cutouts all over the place and 4 inch stilleto patent leather pumps with open toes (Cross my heart, I'm not exaggerating)! I really did have to work hard to keep a straight face when she almost broke her ankle when she had to try and walk across the lawn in her stilletos.



    What made me even sadder was seeing my ex's son. (long story short, my ex was abandoned as a child. She made sure to get pregnant right away. My ex would never walk away from his child, and this was her way I think of locking down the gravy train). I've met him a couple times and he is just the sweetest little child. My ex adores him and is wonderful with him, but she never once got up and paid the slightest attention to him.



    All in all, it was sad to see.

    Hi Ladies

    Hope you are having a good day.  Got rack of lamb for dinner and I can smell it cooking even with a blocked snoz.

    Kathrynn - I always believed that about smoking. I never caught anything that others did.  I'm sure it was because I was so bunged up with nicotine nothing could penetrate.

    What you do with the floozie your ex went off with is say "its interesting to meet you" then you introduce her to the Russian Ambassador and load up the gun! (Bernies Post).   

    Sugar77 - hope you soon get rid of the flu.  Take up smoking me and Kathrynn never get flu.

    Heather - my dear old cat does get annoyed with the furry rat. He sits there with two bad tempered lines in his forehead and a frown and his paw waving in mid air ready to strike for ages until he decides its time to put her in her place.  When we hear her screech we know he's hit his target and we all go "serves her bloody right".

    Titan - OMG I would love to have read that previous post where you had a go at someone. I just love it when you are bad!!  I bet it was priceless.

    Yep have to agree about Camilla,  (Horse face). Actually I think her and Charlie both need a bullet cause he's about as useful to the royal family as a two bob watch (about 20 cents, no bloody use at all).  After all the lazy bastard can't even put an inch of toothpaste on his own toothbrush in the mornings. How pathetic is that and his staff have to put a thermometer in the bath in case he burns his penis, well I ask yer. I do like old Queenie and William and Kate providing they leave her alone and she doesn't get treated like Diana.   

    NavyMom - ok spills the beans who is this lovely piece of feminine beauty that you can't stand. Don't leave us in suspense,  we want the whole sordid story.    

    Ok I'm off to eat my rack of lamb, yummy.  Have a great evening ladies. Annie

    Kathryn:

    So sorry you had to even endure being in the same place as she was, but you sure handled it well, and all to your credit.  Always remember, karma is a bitch - and I certainly wouldn't want to have hers!

    Sending my best to all you wonderful ladies,

    Titan, please, I couldn't run a 10 min mile if my ass was on fire.  I did complete the 5k but in a whopping 49 min.  I'm trying to get back in shape and it's been a long long time since I was.  I did do an additional 15 min on the eliptical afterwards and 30 min of beginner yoga beforehand.  Did a new move yesterday and I'm so sore today.

    Kathrynn, had it been other circumstances I might have felt bad for her but Karma is a b*tch.

    Start work tomorrow so today is going to be a nice lazy day, get some housework done, figure out what I'm going to wear tomorrow and maybe give myself a little pedicure.

    Happy Sunday Ladies.

    Titan - just an FYI. She is just the Queen, not the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother would be the Queen's mother, and she died a while back.

    C-S, I actually feel a bit sorry for Charles - spending most of his life waiting to become King. He should have married Camilla in his young days as they were always attracted to each other. Then perhaps he wouldn't have ended up with a twit like Diana who lacked any skills and intelligence to be useful.

    Titan - I don't think Jenn has been posting anywhere. I am a FB friend and there is nothing there. We'll keep hoping for the best and thinking of her.

    Cocker yum, lamb is my favorite! I think you may be right, I've never had the flu or a flu shot. I keep laughing about your cat. It used to be the opposite in my house. The cat terrorized a 60 lb Shepard. We had to lock up the cat whenever we went out for the dog's safety. If Titan went after someone, I know they bloody well deserved it! Navmom, I vote for those beans too.



    Bernie, thanks for the curse, but I think he's already involved in the African Ambassador's game!



    LRM , I don't know, I've lost a lot of faith in the power of Karma, after meeting all the lovely ladies on here.



    Mccrimmon - pat yourself on the back for a job well done and enjoy your day off.



    Gilly - I must really have brain rot, I don't remember the Queen Mother's death.



    Last word on my ex, and only to show that this freaking disease has taught me some life lessons. My ex was the last man that ANYBODY thought would cheat. In fact he had no need to. Because he was young when we married, I told him right from the start, if he ever met someone, and felt he might have made a mistake marrying so young, just tell me and we would go our own ways amicably. So this tells me that he must have fallen in love. What makes me sad is I know from their co-workers, exactly what she is. After I divorced I joined a social club, which one of my ex's bosses ran, and all of his co-worker's hung out at. (I asked his boss not to spill the beans, and no one made the connection, because I always kept my maiden name). It was 3 years before the secret got out at a function. When I came in the next time, about 10 of his former co-workers (he was gently pushed out of his job, they can't get rid of her because she's civil service) stood up and applauded. The men came up to tell me that when it had all gone down, they had been told that he "had a really nice wife, but now that they knew me personally, they knew exactly HOW nice a wife he had" (yup, I cried) They told me they couldn't believe he married the "company skank". Trust me, she wouldn't have interested if she hadn't seen dollar signs.

    What I came to learn over these last few years is that if you have truly loved someone, when you get past the pain, you will want them to have happiness. My ex and I have spoken only a couple times over the years, the first being when he found out I had CA, and he called to say he'd help if he could( see he's really not a bad sod, took a lot of courage to call a woman who refused to talk to him). I know he's not happy, and it saddens my heart. I truly wish that for him and his child. (her not so much, lol)

    gillyone... couldn't agree more about Charles and Camilla.  I always said that had Diana been born in an inner city council/welfare flat/apt.... she'd have been a first class slapper... that is only my humble opinion Wink  All that being said, the Brits sure do the pomp and circumstance better than any other country - I think.

    Kathyrnn... You have risen above all the crap and shone as a true lady.   Karma is a bitch and its has come back to bite your ex and skanky wife in the arse...that being said, you did portray it is quite sad.

    mccrimmon... have a good first day back at work... let us know how it goes.

    Annie.. the rack of lamb sounds delish - was it?

    Enjoy your days/evenings ladies.

    Gillyone and Tazzy - think you might have given the name 'slapper' to the wrong person. That applies to Camilla more than Diana (think about it)  and do tell me what 'skills and intelligence' you feel Camilla has that Diana lacked, I can only think of one and its too rude to put on here.  Annie

    Sugar - I agree.   I think that charity work that Diana started and left as a legacy cannot be denied.   I just had an issue with her conduct and felt she demeaned what the Royals stood for.    

    But it is just our 'opinions'... thank goodness for democracy Smile

    Oh and anyone watching this morning... that rain - although didn't dampen the party spirit, last weekend the UK were basking in 80 degree heat ?!
