8:10 am
suefrad625
no, it is a state run. But yes he will live in the onsite dorms. He is very snotty and quit responsible, i am hoping it will continue if he gets in. his team placed 5th in the cheer-leading competition yesterday and he is getting so good.
8:11 am
Mom
that is great
8:11 am
sprite
sounds good
8:11 am

8:12 am
sprite
aw I know that song
8:12 am
Mom
it is a hard time for sure
8:12 am
Mom
it is bad enough when they go away to college, I can't imagine going away while in high school
8:13 am
sprite
I kinda hope my son will go travel for a year after highschool. Would do him a world of good. I will worry like crazy, no doubt, but I think he should.
8:15 am
Mom
is he in high school, Sprite?
8:15 am
sprite
yes, he is 15 now, 4rth year of 6 on the gymnasium.
8:15 am
Mom
wow 15 already
8:16 am
sprite

8:35 am
Dorens
happy anniversary to mom (if she's still here)
8:35 am
Dorens
I know what you mean about lurk mode owl. i do it more and more these days
8:36 am
sprite
why is that?
8:37 am
72 Temple Owl
beacuse you are are here!
8:37 am
Dorens
I don't know sprite.. maybe because I'm getting more crochety in my old age... maybe cause some of the conversation lately just doesn't interest me?
8:37 am
sprite
(very sad face) Would hate to think you guys stayed away because of me
8:38 am
Dorens
I find I'm less tolerant, and more easily annoyed by some folks... best just to play and stay out of the convo. Not you, ever, sprite
8:38 am
72 Temple Owl
no,no that is why we came out
8:38 am
kje
I'm with dorens ; )
8:38 am
kje
bit I'll only admit to the crotchety, not the old
8:38 am
sprite
oh! ok :D
Yeah, I can imagine some convo's aren't very inviting. But some others are. Anyway, am glad to see you both.
8:38 am
Dorens
hi kj (oh, thanks... nice to have company in my less attractive moments)
8:38 am
72 Temple Owl
see? it is just that easy to offend, when that is not meant at all
8:39 am
sprite
that was because of crossing dialogues, I think, TOwl. I asked why, and you said because I was there. But that was to a former post, I see it now.
8:39 am
Dorens
no problem kj. few are as old as me (I now qualify for the golden age pass at national parks though :/
8:39 am
72 Temple Owl
and hi kje. folks are overtired, holidays and all i guess, and typing has no intonation
8:40 am
kje
no, I'm not offended at all TO, I just find the drama tiring at times. I have real drama in my life, I don't need the fake kind - lol
8:40 am
sprite
indeedy deed.
8:40 am
kje
dorens... I have seen your pics... I hope to look as good as you do if I make a golden age
8:41 am
Dorens
no, i don't blame it on holidays, or being offended either.. just don't like what people go on about sometimes. and some seem so self-important... that's something I've never tolerated well
8:41 am
72 Temple Owl
*nods in agreement*
8:41 am
kje
(but dorens.... i AM important!)
8:41 am
Dorens
good genes kj... one of the things i thank my mother for
8:41 am
72 Temple Owl
with kje
8:41 am
72 Temple Owl
*clarifies* with kje
8:41 am
sprite
Always amazes me if people go on and on about somebody else but me. Just cannot understand at all.
8:42 am
kje
i just started watching a show called "once upon a time" - have you guys seen it?
8:42 am
Dorens
ah, but they do go on and on about YOU, sprite
8:42 am
sprite
no can't say I have. Is it fun?
8:42 am
72 Temple Owl
yes, i saw most of the marathon.
8:42 am
suefrad625
didnt mean to leave so fast. we are listing our camper on craigslist
8:42 am
Dorens
no, there are just too many shows on.. too many channels, and then there are books to read, movies, and babble, of course
8:42 am
sprite
Dorens, I know! But that is only when I am not there... sigh... I feel SO excluded!
8:43 am
kje
it is fun... very different (I mostly just like something different)
8:43 am
suefrad625
can i paste the ad in and you all can look at it for me
8:43 am
suefrad625
txt that is
8:43 am
sprite
of course, pls do
8:43 am
renfield
well - nothing new on this side of the rabbit proof fence
8:43 am
Dorens
what is it kj?
8:44 am
kje
I don't have a TV, but I do occasionally watch something via computer.... I saw a review for this and it looked interesting so I looked it up on Hulu - very interesting so far (which means they'll ruin it eventually, but I maintain hope)
8:44 am
kje
called "once upon a time" dorens
8:44 am
sprite
at least you can enjoy it while it lasts, kje
8:44 am
72 Temple Owl
it is fantasy,perhaps science fantasy, would you agree kje?
8:45 am
Dorens
sounds interesting. and of course i have no time for it. I just caught all of season one of Downton Abbey, and season two begins tonight. but that does sound good kj. will look into it
8:45 am
renfield
we've been watching jerserylicious as well as the glam fairie
8:46 am
Dorens
ren, where did you move to? I didn't realize you had left texas?
8:46 am
kje
not really sci-fi as typica sci-fi genre... but yes, fantasy, sytery, etc
8:46 am
Dorens
is jerselicious anything like jersey shore (a show I still have managed to miss, and suppose I will forever)
8:46 am
kje
yes, I watched downton abbey on line last fall... will watch it online again
8:46 am
sprite
sounds good. If it ever makes it to our region, I will watch.
8:46 am
72 Temple Owl
oh my, poor nj
8:47 am
renfield
dorens - we left tx in 2008 - we are currently in the tampa bay area
8:47 am
Dorens
does hulu reach you sprite?
8:48 am
Dorens
oh, that does sound vaguely familiar, but somehow I think i thought you were there for a visit, didn't realize you live there now? Are you near tarpon springs? the only thing i remember about the tampa area is a really good greek restaurant on the water there
8:48 am
sprite
no I am afraid not
8:48 am
renfield
jerseylicious is about a beauty salom and all the drama, smokey eyes, big hair,
8:48 am
Dorens
hah! that sounds amusing
8:50 am
tabbycat
Dorens, are you talking about Santorini's in Tarpon Springs?
8:50 am
renfield
great food area dorens - more food than i can afford - and street parties and more food, and booze and food and fights
8:51 am
Dorens
gee i have no idea but it might be. I was there over 30 years ago, but I remember it was really terrific and their greek salad is something I recreate still today. had avocado and lots of great vegs in it
8:52 am
tabbycat
Our daughter and son in law used to live in Tarpon Springs and we went there often. Lots of great places to eat and shop. A really nice little town.
8:52 am
Dorens
booze and fights don't really appeal, but the great food always does
8:52 am
sprite
hi tabbycat
8:52 am
renfield
hey tabby
8:52 am
Dorens
i have two tabbycats sitting by me right now
8:52 am
tabbycat
Never saw or heard of the fights.
8:53 am
72 Temple Owl
hello tabbycat
8:53 am
tabbycat
Hi Ren and Dorens
8:53 am
kje
i need greek now.... darn babble chog
8:53 am
sprite
yay for greek food!
8:53 am
tabbycat
Hi Sprite & kje
8:53 am
Dorens
all you need is some feta cheese and anything can be greek (i have a big tub in the fridge at all times, thanks to costco)
8:54 am
sprite
good feta rocks. Bit of retsina during dinner and a bit of samos after dessert....
8:54 am
tabbycat
I like the Greek style potato salad that's usually part of it...different from the usual Southern style that I make
8:55 am
renfield
you must leave early - the locals told me to sine, stroll, then leave, so i do do - avoid the fights
8:55 am
72 Temple Owl
is it vinegat and oil based, tabby?
8:55 am
Mr Bob
Morning friends
8:55 am
72 Temple Owl
vinegar
8:55 am
Dorens
well the big tub of crumbled feta that i get at costco might not qualify as good feta, but it is feta. that and tomatoes, of course...
8:56 am
renfield
share the makings of this greek potato salad tabby
8:56 am
kje
i buy a sheep's milk israeli feta at Central Market that is to die for
8:56 am
renfield
hey mr bob
8:56 am
Dorens
morning mr bob
8:56 am
tabbycat
I think they use lemon juice instead of vinegar
8:57 am
72 Temple Owl
hello mr bob
8:57 am
Dorens
i can't buy cheese that is to die for, kj, because when i do i eat the whole thing. can't resist
8:57 am
Dorens
oh yeah, lemons in everything. very greek
8:57 am
kje
yes, I can relate, dorens
8:58 am
Dorens
have you had La Tur?
8:58 am
72 Temple Owl
you are making me want to try a greek salad, have never had one.
8:58 am
Dorens
do you like feta cheese owl?
8:59 am
tabbycat
I've never made it myself...only had it in restaurants. But here's a link
9:00 am
Dorens
kj - my two most evil cheese right now are La Tur and Truffle Tremor. Exceedingly fattening and maddeningly delicious
9:01 am
tabbycat
Oops...couldn't make the link work. But you can google Greek potato salad and find lots of recipes.
9:01 am
72 Temple Owl
thank you, tabby. doren i think feta is ok
9:02 am
Dorens
i have a very good greek dressing recipe, but can't get to it now. will send it to you later if you like
9:02 am
renfield
i have discovered a longhorn cheddar that reminds me of the rat trap cheese we had in TX
9:02 am
sprite
cheese is a killer. I love it to bits and it is SO fat.
9:02 am
kje
truffle tremor is awesome
9:02 am

9:03 am

9:03 am
sprite
crossy :) *hugs*
9:03 am
kje
oh wow, I forgot we had something called rat trap cheese growing up
9:03 am
Dorens
can you believe my son gives it to his 5 year old daughter. (She loves it, but why should she eat $25 / pound cheese?)
9:03 am
kje
you are right, ren... essentially would be like longhorn cheddar (which I have never seen outside of TX)
9:03 am
renfield
hey crossy
9:03 am
kje
gotta raise their palates right, dorens!
9:04 am
Dorens

9:38 am
crosshair
problem with making home made cheese bread is you have to make 3 at a time,two for regular use and one to be gobbled up fresh and hot by everyone the second it is done
9:39 am
Glantarell
crossy - there is only me here - I gobble a third while it's hot, save a third for regular use and slice and freeze the rest
9:40 am
crosshair

9:42 am
crosshair
then there is the old sheep herders loaves with various meats baked into it

Glantarell
illegal because? causes dangerous drool puddles?
9:42 am
Glantarell
Never heard of meats being baked into bread...
9:42 am

drool flooding can be hazardous.
9:43 am
Glantarell
olives and subdried tomatoes work well though
9:43 am
crosshair
yup,when i was young i often saw beef and or lamb baked into bread
9:43 am
hego
Italians always bake meats into breads.
9:43 am
Glantarell
droolm flooding can be downright dangerous - extra slippery and if it freezes well, nobody would be safe LOL
9:43 am
crosshair
now,sun dried tomato,s would be very nice
9:43 am
Glantarell
Sun dried tomato and salami bread has a ring to it

3:36 pm
Focal
Well it's taken me a week to cop plurals!! But I am playing a couple of minutes here, a couple of minutes there.... I need to sit down for an hour or so and give it some wellie!
3:37 pm
Pinikula
well, there's a ton of assistance at any given time you're available to play, focal :)
3:37 pm
Pinikula
PERIwinkle...you're in the grid! :)
3:37 pm
periwinkle
so I am :)
3:37 pm
Focal
I know, it's a really friendly group of people. And an enjoyable scattering of complete nutcases too!!
3:37 pm
Pinikula

3:38 pm
Pinikula
you hit the nail on the head, focal!
3:38 pm
periwinkle
Yes you can, Pini. cause I say so!
3:38 pm

3:41 pm
Pinikula
I had to move my office over break and winter term classes start tomorrow; I'm still trying to figure out where all my stuff is!
3:41 pm
Pinikula
..but the computer made it...that's a bonus
3:41 pm
periwinkle
hope you like your new space,pini
3:41 pm
Pinikula
Oh, and I have a new iPhone!
3:42 pm
periwinkle
good for you, marigold has one too, I just got another basic phone, which is all I really need. altho the iphone does look neat
3:42 pm
Pinikula
it's about 1/4 my previous office size, but I don't have a choice but continue to get it to work (i.e., have to order new furniture to replace the temp pieces, etc.)
3:43 pm
lynxxx
so disruptive to the daily grind when you have to move
3:43 pm
periwinkle
new furniture is good
3:43 pm
Pinikula
I'm loving it, Peri...I was going to go for a basic, but I can't see the screens and I have an iTouch...so the iPhone is visible and allows me to add the apps from the iTouch so I can give the iTouch to CamoBoy (instead of having him play with the phone!)
3:43 pm
Pinikula
so, it's kind of a win/win kinda thing
3:44 pm
Pinikula
I'm looking forward to ordering the new furniture if I could get a moment to sit down and review the quote
3:45 pm
Pinikula
now, I'm just looking into "must have" that friends have told me about...
3:45 pm
periwinkle
what is that?
3:45 pm
Pinikula
...there are a few that I'm definitely passing on, some are OK, and some I'm finding on my own
3:45 pm
Pinikula
oh, "must have" APPS
3:46 pm
Pinikula
(sorry, my bad for missing the important word there)
3:47 pm
Pinikula
you know that phrase "there's an app for that"...well, I'm finding it to be pretty true!
3:47 pm
periwinkle
just don't go too crazy with all the possibilities
3:48 pm
Pinikula
<-- more mature than my dau in that respect...she already has twice as many as me!
3:48 pm

<---Is amazed that Welki wants her house to look like it just erped flowers and stencil print
4:25 pm

<---ruru is the best wine app
4:25 pm
Pinikula
but, ru...do you want me to put your phone number in my phone for the wine-moments?
4:26 pm
rururocks

4:26 pm

most wine app people are dumbshits when it comes to wine any way..
4:26 pm
welki
pini, i'm no afficianado, but a decent app for us regular folks is wine PhD
4:26 pm
welki

4:26 pm
rururocks
the writers of the apps I mean
4:27 pm
Pinikula
I was kinda thinkin' that, ru...about the apps...but I'll remember to hit you up here before I go out on a wine excersion to get your input! :)
4:27 pm

4:28 pm

Oh, did I see crossy in here??
4:29 pm

I think the King Estate Pinot Gris is okay.. the other wines are kinda mass produced
4:31 pm

...well, now I have the Kindle app on my phone and they sync...so I can pick up where I left off on either device!
4:31 pm

4:39 pm
crosshair
The cable had passed us by; the dish was the only hope, and eventually we were all forced to turn to it. By the summer of '85, the valley had more satellite dishes per capita than an Eskimo village on the north slope of Alaska. Mine was one of the last to go in. I had been nervous from the start about the hazards of too much input, which is a very real problem with these things. Watching TV becomes a full-time job when you can scan 200 channels all day and all night and still have the option of punching Night Dreams into the video machine, if the rest of the world seems dull. -- Hunter Thompson, "Full-time scrambling", _Generation of Swine_

<---Not in charge of watching Pini this week : )
5:48 pm

I'm sure no one is in charge of Pini this week; Molly. She'd be a tough one to be in charge of! ;-) I've just missed seeing her around since we've played Babble together for so long
5:49 pm
Nef
ANd that would be some road trip for meatloaf and pie; pick me up on your way through!
5:49 pm
MollyL
She seems to be here on a more infrequent basis. Life must be busy.
5:50 pm

6:43 pm
HarryHood
I have many questions
6:44 pm
MollyL
Berkley Breathed is still alive and kicking. I actually got a thank you note from him when I sent him a get well card after his accident. AND...my farewell to "Bloom County" was published on the op-ed page of The Washington Post.
6:44 pm
HarryHood
woo molly you rock
6:45 pm
HarryHood
I had a roommate for awhile who was Steve Dallas personified
6:45 pm
MollyL
I am a die hard fan. I still have "Bloom County" withdrawal from time to time.

Dorens
readinig back in the chog. i just watched all of season one downton abbey this weekend too, very happy to see season one tonite.. it's on pbs, kap
6:50 pm
HarryHood
not in this grid
6:50 pm
Kaplan the Magne
No- there is a word find puzzle second to the crossword. It says finding 50 5 letter words in their grid is genius level, but I am so used to monkeying random words and having them work, that I don't know if I am a genius or a monkey.
6:50 pm
Dorens
love period soap operas like that.. anything british, i guess
6:51 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I have 45 but I don't know if they're all words
6:51 pm
MollyL
And all this time I thought it was Downtown Abbey
6:52 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I watched 3 on Friday and 1 yesterday. The British version is longer but on PBS they edited out some of the legamisms about estates because they thought Americans wouldn't get it
6:52 pm
Dorens
so did i moll
6:52 pm
MollyL
<---Not much for Brit TV
6:53 pm
Dorens
they might be right,.. i didn't really get the whole "entail" or whatever they were talking about, but understand enough to follow the plot. sort of in love with matthew i think
6:54 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Oh, he's sooo cuuuuuute.
6:55 pm
Dorens
this is really a shameless rip off of the old upstairs downstairs, but that's ok with me. it makes me feel like i'm under thirty again
6:55 pm
HarryHood
last word...clue for me7? I think i have the first part...but can't get the suffix
6:56 pm
Dorens
ends like pro*****.. bacteria, phyllum, something like that
6:56 pm
MollyL
Suffix starts with z, sounds like feathery neck piece
6:56 pm

6:58 pm
Dorens
grid was okay today. i was down to 20 or so that i couldn't find at all... then when i listed i didn't even have to look back at the grid.. just filled them all in. nice when it's like that
7:01 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I adored Upstairs Downstairs, and it echoes all the time- but it's OK. I miss Hudson. But the new one is for now- I can but it's nice to have a new one go back and watch things I used to love over and over-
7:01 pm
Kaplan the Magne
what do you do for work Dorens (was looking at yr profile)
7:02 pm
Dorens
i'm a school counselor. very varied (K -8). mostly enjoyable
7:03 pm
Dorens
i kept missing mrs. hudson too. this cook just doesn't seem right.
7:03 pm
MollyL
I'm a little queasy. The Denver/Pittsburgh game has just gone into overtime. My hate for Pittsburgh grows exponentially.
7:03 pm
Kaplan the Magne
This g
7:03 pm
Kaplan the Magne
It was Mrs Bridges.
7:03 pm
Kaplan the Magne
She never married Hudson, did she?
7:04 pm
Dorens
oh of course.. as i wrote that it didn't look right. Hudson was the butler.. this butler is okay tho.
7:04 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Lady Marjorie went down in the Titanic, remember?
7:04 pm
Dorens
i think at the end we were sort of aware that they might, but i could be making that up
7:04 pm
Dorens
yes... odd that this one begins with the titanic
7:04 pm
Kaplan the Magne
James and Georgina...I cried when the series ended
7:04 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Did you watch the 3 episode update?
7:05 pm
Dorens
felt like they were part of the family
7:05 pm
Dorens
No i totally missed it.. hope i'll catch it sometime.. this new one has me hankering for the old
7:05 pm
Kaplan the Magne
HERE's a trivia question- on Downton, the scene with the prize roses is exactly from an old movie I just watched with my husband- I think with Bette Davis, I can't recall-
7:05 pm
Dorens
funny also that the scullery maid always being yelled at is daisy too
7:06 pm
Kaplan the Magne
but we were watching and I said "I have seen this story somewhere before."
7:06 pm
Kaplan the Magne
No- that was Ruby. Unless there was also a Daisy.
7:06 pm
Dorens
oh gosh, i don't remember my bette davis movies at all. haven't watched the old films in a long long time
7:06 pm
Dorens
yes. that WAS ruby. but there was a daisy... alfred was sweet on her, wasn't he?
7:06 pm
Kaplan the Magne
My mother used to watch Upstairs Downstairs- it is one of my later memories of my mother...
7:07 pm
Dorens
i really have such a muddled memory. ruby, daisy, mrs bridges, mrs. hudson.
then how old were you when the series was on kap?
7:07 pm
Kaplan the Magne
My mom died 28 years ago this January 12, which means I had my mother for exactly as long as I have not had her (1984)
7:08 pm
Dorens
ah. i am sorry
7:09 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I'm definitely over it! Except every Jnuary. 28 is too young to lose a 60 year old mother- we had not resolved any of our difficulties.
7:09 pm
MollyL
DENVER WON!!!!!!! WHOO HOO!!!!!
7:09 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I watched it again in the 80s when I met my husband. (Pause to cheer). We didn't have a vcr so I had to be home for all the reruns
7:09 pm
Dorens
i just heard a whoo hoo from downstairs too molly
7:10 pm
Dorens
why is it that everyone hates pittsburgh so much?
7:10 pm
Kaplan the Magne
My mother watched the Waltons when I watched "An American Family"- quite a difference
7:11 pm
Dorens
an american family? the louds?
7:11 pm
Kaplan the Magne
This chog has at least 7 conversation lines at the moment. I am communing with Dorens and Upstairs Downstairs. Yeah, the Louds.
7:11 pm
ChampFit
If anyone cares, Denver just beat Pittsburgh in overtime.
7:11 pm
MollyL
Because The Steelers have spent WAY too much time in The Super Bowl. It's fresh to see other teams get a chance.
7:11 pm
Kaplan the Magne
The first reality show, and weird 70's documentary.
7:12 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Pittsburgh schmittsburg.
7:12 pm

Champ missed my loud cheering below.
7:12 pm
ChampFit
Sorry Molly...I was bummed. Looked like Big Ben woke up, but Tebow was on a roll!
7:13 pm
Dorens
exactly kap, i was thinking about it recently... all this reality tv is such garbage... that really was reality (or as close to it as you ould get)
7:13 pm
Dorens
well, we are giants fans here..so sort of excited that they've made it this far
7:14 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Lance Loud in the Chelsea hotel was a true example of New York culture in the 70s- downtown.
7:14 pm
Kaplan the Magne
He died of AIDS and crystal meth.
7:14 pm
Kaplan the Magne
We will have to have this conversation in the parlor- there is too much cheering in the rec room.
7:15 pm
Dorens
yes i remember seeing an update sometime in the last deade or so
7:15 pm
Dorens
ok. i have to go anyway. later all
7:15 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Nice chatting with ya
7:16 pm
MollyL
Champ, Tebow has been touched by the football Gods.
7:16 pm
MollyL
*Mental note: Do not post about my intense hatred for The Giants when Doren is around*
7:17 pm
Dorens
haha. it's ok. i don't really care about football at all. it is just that others around here do. so hate away, moll
7:17 pm
MollyL
*Fluffs up Elway jersey to wear to work tomorrow*

I am so glad the Steelers lost.. I can't stand Ben Rothesberger.. thug and creep
7:18 pm
Dorens
oh good. another reason to hate the steelers.. and yes, he is
7:18 pm
MollyL
Amen Ru. Did you see that last play? That will go down in football history.
7:18 pm
rururocks
just adds to the Tebow legend .. unbelievable
7:19 pm
rururocks
Miley Cyrus can throw the ball better then him, but he still has something special to win.
7:20 pm
MollyL
My ex, who passed two years ago, was a HUGE Broncos fan. This was an especially sweet win for me. : )
7:20 pm
rururocks
I'm glad they won too.. all the NFL talking heads are going to be talking all week about this one
7:23 pm
rururocks
it's amazing Rothesberger isn't in jail.
7:24 pm
MollyL
I agree Ru and I hate seeing him being a sports idol for young kids.
7:25 pm
rururocks

8:33 pm

we actually got some snow today!! not much mind you, and it's already gone, but snow nonetheless
8:35 pm
stidmama
wow. the white stuff! good for you! maybe we'll see some this year, too. Seems strange that only a few years ago I was whining about having too much snow, and this year I am whining about all the warm, dry weather. But these wild variances from normal range confuse my plants and the animals, and they are very distressing.
8:36 pm
lbdawger
i know what you mean about the crazy weather. there has been grassfires over on the east side of the mountains already. not a good sign

Ev4/7 with the list and clues, this grid was hard.I am almost done,so here is a story I will sh5/12 with you. My ex-husband had a very sh5/14 te6/24.My life was in pe5/12 the whole time we were together.He would physically ha 4/6 me. He would sh5/18 me around. He would bite me with his te5/12. He was jealous and he called me a ho4/5 because he thought I was cheating on him. He was so paranoid,he would ho4/8r over me whenever I was on the phone with someone to see if I was talking with another guy.My ex always believed I was making secret plans to me 4/5 another guy. He was very volatile and he th5/20 things in our ho 4/6. During one of his rages, my ex tried to stick my head in the ov 4/7 while it was on. I really wanted to leave him and mo 4/8 out & re4/4 an apartment, however, I was afraid if I atte5/14ed to do that,he'd catch me and kill me. Also, I took an oa 4/5 to love him through good times and bad times.I decided to be with him pe 4/6anently no matter what.Then one night I heard si 6/18 outside my house. The cops came to my door to tell me that he had pe6/24ed while drinking & driving Ne4/8 of his death actually brought tears to my eyes I we 4/9 not because he had died, but because I was happy to be free of him. Husband just wrote me a me 4/6 that he wants computter.I am going to go watch the movie The Em 6/24 Strikes Back. I'll see you later.
