((((BEN!!!)))) Don't disappear and worry me like that! If you keep it up I will have to name my next gray hair after you.

Mr. V decided to run for the grout and left me to wash the walls that are finished. Funny how that worked out....

Got a job. Need to move in a bit, so the tank is on hold, although I am picking up gear when I find good deals (this stuff is spendy!).
I'm almost out of another jug of passionfruit and rum, so I might pick up some cheesecake then.

Congrats on the new job Ben hopefully we'll see you around more.

 

[Drottwiler]

Bummer but good.Only getting a 1 day weekend.Working Monday.Good news is since Mondays my Sunday it will be all overtime.Of course I'll be spending it on the girls.They were on a holy terror and destroyed 5 toys in 2 days this week.Gotta love them.

way to many actualy they just paved 287 top oh hill is like a 4 mile stretch that u can see the entire 4 miles i happen to drive it daily, i mainly ride right around 80mph tho, who am i kidding i just cleaned it today getting ready for a ride somewhere between work and home i managed to hit 122 without knowing it.

Geez! My little VLX could barely manage 90 downhill on a mountain with a tailwind! I'm quite comfy on my Spirit at 80-85, but I don't think I'd be over 100 any time soon.

That's kinda scary Paul. I'm very familiar with NJ roads, and NJ traffic and NJ drivers and I have to say I'm very worried about your safety now. Be careful, your family needs you.

I agree! NJ is not the place to be messing around on a vehicle! The drivers are nuts!

That's gorgeous John.
Here's my question to all vendors...If you have a product that everyone including their mama want.Why are they so scarce? Why is everything a waiting list hope I get one?While I enjoy the occasional FRENZY sometimes I just want to buy something without so much drama.I love Lava tanks. I'd buy a hundred.Well O.K. maybe not 100 I would if Sallie was buying a hundred. She's my mentor you know...Where was I? Oh FRENZYS...I would buy my fair share. In the end it just pisses people off.Especially if you don't get one.Here's my advice as a pretty successful seller of all things Cameo.Stock what people buy...Don't put 50 out there.You have 100 people leave disappointed.You just lost 100 sales...Who does that? If I knew how to make those items I'd wipe everyone off this board in sales because I wouldn't put 50 up I'd wait until I could put 150 up.Again..I don't mind the occasional FRENZY but this site has become one big FRENZY...And what kills me is the vendors get all huffy.I'd be thanking my ... off....
Picks up soapbox and walks away...

I totally agree with you Stretchy! All the sales I've been through, and I only have 3!

I have no life. Everyone is out having fun today....Blah.

Not me, I was at work today. And what a fun day it was too! Apparently the storms last night did a number on our computer system/internet connections. We couldn't take any credit/debit cards at all, and every time we needed to print postage, it would take 2 or 3 minutes each time we put in a zip code. Yup, fun day at the P.O.!

I'm bored too...waiting for son to get home is a long wait! Doing laundry. I need a life.

I agree with Stretchy. When I first looked at JonBoy, my first thought was, why would I stay up that late to order something? Put it up for sale in the morning!

I'm done buying stuff now. One Riva and one ProVari is good enough. I have university tuition, sorority dues, daughter's rent and Denmark to pay for! That is just one child. Yes, she is working her ... off this summer at a job she hates, but it pays good money! She is also applying (this is so gross) to work at the City of Mpls. morgue - going on sites to take pictures, etc....she said sort of like a real CSI If she gets the job, I'm sure it will stand out on her med school apps!

I think that sounds like a really cool job!

Hi guys. Did I see cheesecake?

Yesiree Ben, you certainly did! And it's awesome! (Pssst, mix it with any of the fruits and it's even awesomer!)

I'll try to show up more often, but I found skyrim, so time is an issue.

Is Skyrim easer on the wallet than ECF???

 

[cba191]

As long as you are willing to sacrifice your free time.

 

[FlyingV]

Free time? What's that?

 

[Drottwiler]

I was thinking the same thing FV.How was the racoon hunt???

 

[FlyingV]

He came in without seeing a one. Of course they did show up around 3:30 this morning. darn it.

 

[Drottwiler]

Guess you'll have to trap then.Then kill.

 

[FlyingV]

That's what I'm thinking. There were four of them on the game camera again last night. I put the peep food in the garage to try to discourage them. I'm already watching the woods for them to come down the path.

 

[MustangSallie]

Maybe they'll come sooner tonight since they know you're serving dessert.

 

[JustPeachy]

Hmm, I was looking at some other forum threads and I keep getting a warning message about a possible hacker from Google. Signing off for now.

I was getting that on some sites that had flash on them. I think sometimes, when something doesn't get updated, people get false positives. Also, people can report a malicious site - it's one way to get back at your enemies. Same thing with reporting paypal accounts, and other stuff like that.

I agree... when this first went up for sale you could place an order for it right away, and he would ship out in batches, which he was very clear about. The demand for the DID has now exceeded availability, and he's now working on meeting that demand... Jim is a class act. I can't wait to see what else he is going to offer up to us.

Peeps are safely tucked away for the night, and I am going out for dinner. Woo Hoo! Lucky me forgot to cook.

See everyone later!

 

[Asenath]

Hi FV! WOOOT on the new flavors coming in! I'll let you know as soonas I'm back from 4th of july vaca! Let the testing begin!

Good Morning Asenath. 5? My new flavors are supposed to arrive today. Hopefully I will have something taste worthy by the end of the week. *fingers crossed*

Victor is busy annoying his brother now. Mr. V is still hiding in bed. I might need to vacuum.

 

[Asenath]

Stretchy, coming from you that's quite the compliment! =D
And the Stretchy chick is, of course, the prettiest!
She already had her head held high!

Asenath you are so many beautiful women at one time...Not as pretty as me..just sayin...Have you seen Stretchy yet?
