You got that right, makes you wish you were here don't it :D :laugh:

Gonna see if DH & I can get the closed captioning bigger on this tv ... catch ya' later hon :)

:blink: Ok! Enjoy your Fritos and chili. I agree...sometimes the closed captioning is too small. I've noticed that at the bar. I have a certain spot I stand so I can read it. Any further away and I can't see it or too close and it gets all fuzzy. :blink:

:blink: We don't tell each other anything to do or not. Cause I wouldn't do it anyway and she likes having someone who doesn't try and tell her what to do. She complains about the heat, "Us fat people can't stand this heat." and the only thing I say is, "Calories in...calories out." :laugh:

Yeah...ya only live once so...everyone should be allowed to do what they want. We don't intrude on what the other one wants to do. :D

I would never have thought of you as a fat person. That's just not the image I had.

:blink: Fritos in chili? Yuck! That'd ****up a good chili! Maybe a cracker but Fritos? Noooooo. :nah:

I used to use crackers a little bit, a long time ago, until someone asked if I'd tried Fritos. I tried just a little in a spoonful and liked it, and that was all it took. :)

So neither of you like Fritos on your Chili. That's fine. More for me. :laugh:


Sorry to be late. I had some phone calls.

:blink: I'm not fat. I pay attention to calories in/calories out. Well...and workout everyday. DW, on the other hand, doesn't. Sooooo...she's a bit heavy and complains about it. Doesn't matter to me but it seems to bother her. Like I always told her, "Well if it bothers you...lose it." But apparently she's one of "those" people. She doesn't like her weight gain but doesn't want to do anything about it either. Which, like I say, is fine with me. But me? No way! I was over fat one time and that's alllll it took. I watch how much I eat and never miss a workout and a walk. :blink:

:blink: You had phone calls? Work maybe? :D

Someone in Cali is talking to me about signing on with them to do 3rd-party printer and computer repairs for their customers. I've done this kind of work many times in the past, and it's a PITA dealing with them via long distance, their tech procedures, and their other internal offices that I have to go through. This place has some kinks beyond any other place I've worked for, when it comes to pay, but I need the work. I'll do a few jobs and see if I want to stay with them.

Two guys were sitting down for a break in their soon-to-be new shop.

As yet, the shop wasn't ready, with only a few shelves set up.

One turned to the other and said, "I bet any minute now some pensioner is going to walk by, put their face to the window, and ask what we're selling."

No sooner were the words out of his mouth when, sure enough, a curious old woman walked to the window, had a peek, and in a soft voice asked "What are you selling here?"

One of the men replied sarcastically, "We're selling azzholes."

Without skipping a beat, the old dear said, "Must be doing well... Only two left!"



Lesson here: Don't mess with old people!

:blink: Yeah...she always says "Us" I guess referring to her and other over weight people. She always says, "You skinny people don't understand." But the only reason I'm not overweight is cause I watch it and workout. She's never seen me heavy...only pictures of me. It happened when I came back from overseas. Didn't do anything for a year but smoke "weed" and cook food. Woke up one day and went..."Who's that in that mirror?" And never looked back. :laugh:

Well...sounds like something. I'd certainly try it and see. :D

You sound like my husband :facepalm: And I sound like your wife :lol: No, I really try to watch my weight, but the last couple of years I've just 'watched' it creep up :cry: I have been trying to be more active lately, hoping that will help. But, the older you get (esp with women) the harder it is (for most people).

The Sailor and the Pilot:


By the time a sailor pulled into a little town every hotel room was taken. “You’ve got to have a room somewhere,” he pleaded. “Or just a bed, I don’t care where.”

“Well, I do have a double room with one occupant – an Air Force guy,” admitted the manager, “and he might be glad to split the cost. But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past. I’m not sure it’d be worth it to you.”

“No problem,” the tired Navy man assured him. “I’ll take it.” The next morning, the sailor came down to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy tailed. “How’d you sleep?” asked the manager. “Never better.” The manager was impressed. “No problem with the other guy snoring?” “Nope. I shut him up in no time,” said the Navy guy.

“How’d you manage that?” asked the manager.

“He was already in bed, snoring away, when I came in the room,” the sailor explained. “I went over, gave him a kiss on the cheek, and said, ‘Goodnight beautiful,’

…and he sat up all night watching me.”

:blink: Oh...it's hard for anyone. And yes...the older ya get the slower your metabolism. I can easily gain 6 or 8lbs. a week if I just eat whatever. I really regulate my eating. Here's the thing...I don't care if she's overweight. Certainly doesn't make her any less attractive to me or love her any less. But she(as well as others)need to be happy with their weight or do what is necessary to be happy with their weight. For me...I just wouldn't want to walk around being all unhappy. I guess the old saying "Fat and happy" comes to mind. If it bothers you...it bothers me CAUSE it bothers you. If it doesn't bother you...it doesn't bother me. People should just be happy with themselves regardless of their size. And people shouldn't compare themselves to others. Comparison of anything is the devil of society. :blink:

I couldn't agree more. We create our own happiness. Happiness is a conscious decision. I'm sure with your DW it's not a constant, all day walking around unhappiness. Just when she walks near a mirror. :D

You said that right, Meggers. I hit the gym 6 days a week and if I didn't I would gain weight...a lot. I wouldn't be happy without being in shape, so I go to the gym and watch what I eat (mostly). I spend a lot of time at the beach and with my shirt off; I want to look good. Of course, I'm single... so it's even more of an incentive. Back to dinner... I'll try to get by later tonight.:)

Hi Tink :)
Isn't that the truth? I've quit worrying about it :facepalm:
