Chit Chat in VOLTVILLE Thread #2 :)

[SandySu]

Today, when I went to tutor the kids, it was the youngest's 5th b'day. When I arrived, they were having cake, and their grandmother insisted I have some, plus light the candles, and I chose to sing happy birthday, then instruct them on making a wish and blowing out the candles, though the older siblings helped blowing out the candles. I took a picture with the girl's iPad, and here it is.



Then we got down to business. I took someone's suggestion -- thanks, but I forget who --tell me, please -- to hide a message in the instructions of a worksheet. The boy caught his, but the girl missed, and I pointed out that it would have been an extra stone if she had found it. She was very disappointed. I think now she'll be looking for that.

Today I burned some scrap wood in my fire pit. I guess some of that wood was pressure treated with some super chemical because it had a beautiful vibrant green flame!

And apparently its over a mb....

 

[tmcase]

Ummm ... morels with your steak? Probably not enough to coerce you to kiss a froggy, huh.

Not a chance.

So nice to have faces to go with the name-nots!! YAY! (about the hidden message)

That was my suggestion.

Happy 4 Year Vaperversary

Cindy!!!

Sorry, but it's the best I can do "last minute". My PhotoShop skills are directly related to the amount of caffeine consumed thus far today. And, I gotta go pack for Terry's place.

See ya later, All.

Okay. Gotta add one more thing just for levity. Jerry, you thought it was crazy here before! My son just informed me that I should expect delivery of a genuine, functional Civil War cannon. He got it as a gift for his Best Man.

Congrats cindy.

 

[JerryRM]

That's fantastic, Cindy, congratulations on 4 years smoke free !!!!!

 

[JerryRM]

Terry, try kissing a prince and see if he turns into a frog.

Raven, you can load that cannon with black powder and celebrate the 4th of July !!! Put in some grape shot and clear the critters out of your woods !!

 

[awsum140]

Cindy, congrats on four years of being tobacco free! That is really great!

Rave, you can use the cannon for the zombie apocalypse.

Anyone heard from Tritium recently?

 

[awsum140]

DUHHH

 

[awsum140]

DUHHH. For some reason ECF wasn't refreshing properly. Ended up with the same post three times!

 

[Semiretired]

That's fantastic, Cindy, congratulations on 4 years smoke free !!!!!

What Jerry said x 2...

 

[tmcase]

Terry, try kissing a prince and see if he turns into a frog.

Now why in the hell would I want to do that???

 

[Qew]

Happy 4th Vaperversary Cindy!!
Congratulations!

 

[Uncle]

Well, then we will just have to figure out how to get the ole happy Uncle back.

Oh - Don't worry about the "Old" Uncle - the Fun Loving Curmudgeon is still here, just getting so much older . . . AND - Notice I changed "My" Avatar once again too, however this is just for "You" this time . . .

I don't remember ever having been able to DELETE a post, but you can edit them and just delete the stuff you wanna delete. Then type something silly, like "oops, try again..." (although I don't think the 10 char rule applies anymore).

YEP - No One, but ECF Administration/Moderators can actually delete a post from view . . . The instruction were merely for editing and deleting the content of the post . . .

Guess it's like dangling a carrot in front of a mule to get him to walk.

IMO - More like trying to hit someone over the head to . . .

....but I'll get them back with EMOJIS!!!

YEP ! ! !

Woohoo completely forgot: TODAY'S MY 4-YEAR-SMOKE-FREE VAPERVERSARY!

YEP - A VERY SPECIAL DAY for Both of "Us" . . .

Anyone heard from Tritium recently? I saw that Greece is on the verge of a very severe financial problem, again.

Nope - Not directly, the last entry he made on FB was on Sunday too . . .

Although, I think "Trit" would, could, and will survive . . . I Really Hope that "Trit" is . . .

Great Uncle - you had me getting worried. Never let small things in life get you down - save that for the big ones that come up.

 

[3mg Meniere]

He'll be fine. Given how deep he is into gardening and finding mushrooms, and all the livestock farmers in his rural area, he won't starve. Given his knowledge of English and German and technology, if all else fails, he will have to move-- although we know how much he loves his country.

 

[Uncle]

Great Uncle - you had me getting worried. Never let small things in life get you down - save that for the big ones that come up.

Actually wasn't down, nor upset either - I am more "annoyed" at certain preconceived notions and attitudes like I've been seeing lately in some post by certain people than anything else . . . NOW - As for the "BIG ONES" in "LIFE" - don't worry (not that "You" should/would) I will make sure to let Ya' know - BAD

or GOOD

- when and if they should happen . . . Just Sayin' . . .
