    The beginning of eternity, the end of time and space, the beginning of every end, and the end of every place....the letter e


    Poke your fingers in my eyes and I will open wide my jaws. Linen cloth, quills, or paper, my greedy lust devours them all... scissors


    What belongs to you but others use it more than you do?..your name!!


    todays....



    Forward I am heavy, but backward I am not. What am I?


    I never was, am always to be, none ever saw me, nor ever will, and yet I am the confidence of all who live and breathe on this terrestrial ball.


    Lighter than what I am made of, more of me is hidden than is seen. What am I?



    I drive men mad for love of me, easily beaten, never free. What am I?


    I've just been doing the maths.

    It's actually cheaper to start your own Octopus Farm than to buy retail printer ink.

    Beads of perspiration cascaded betwixt her cleavage. Her whole body shuddered and tensed. She groaned and writhed for what seemed an eternity, before finally sighing loudly. It's always the same when the missus gets up off the settee...

    I've just lost a shed load of money on one stupid gamble.

    I gambled that nobody would break into the shed where I keep all my money.

    A pub landlord refused to serve a Gypsy because he had been told by his bank manager that under no circumstances must he accept traveler's cheques.

    It was bring your dad to school day last week...

    I think he was really impressed at how well I teach English.

    I have a selfie stick.
    Whenever I see someone taking one, I hit them with it.

    There's actually little data to show that Asian children are any smarter than children of other races. It's really just a matter of perception, as I concluded from my research."

    I've been searching for my stolen bed.
    And I won't rest until I find it.

    I used to be in a band called 'Missing Cat'.
    You probably saw our posters.

    Just finished reading the fifth book in the "learning to count" trilogy.

    At the start of the exam, the invigilator says, "You have exactly 2 hours. I will not accept any papers after this time has elapsed."

    Two hours later, the invigilator calls out, "Time's up, Ladies and Gentlemen."

    One student is still scribbling away ten minutes later when the invigilator has all the collected papers in a large stack front of him. Slowly, the student finishes up and walks over to hand in his paper, but the invigilator refuses to accept it. The student puffs up his chest and says:

    "Do you have any idea who I am?"

    "No," says the invigilator.
    Great," says the student as he slips his paper into the middle of the stack

    What's green and smells like yellow paint?

    Green Paint.

    My daughter asked me how to spell "Orange" today.
    "O-R-A-N-G-E" I replied.
    Without missing a beat, she says "No, I mean the colour, not the fruit."

    I dig, you dig, we dig, he digs, she digs, they dig.

    It's not a beautiful poem, but it's very deep.

      Hiya Mick and Molls, Up early for dog walks and Dad's doctor appt.

      I'll have you naughties know that Pie Pulling is a sporting event. Yes, I saw it in the last Olympics. Involved bobsleds, I think, or was it archery? Anyway I'm sure participants were fully clothed. At least I think so...

        Good morning Abbers,

        Sunny but single digit temps today - not swell!!!! Tomorrow is supposed to be even worse - the weather folks are throwing the term polar vortex around again ~ whatever!

        Thanks for the startup & coffee Mick. I sure hope you take it easy until you heal up properly. You want to be in good shape for your upcoming trip, right??
        I'm heading to Curves then back here to do some paperwork. The grandsons will be dropped off for dinner again tonight so I'm in prep mode, ha ha!!!

        Pie, I hadn't thought of Olympic sports when I heard the pie pulling reference - interesting, LOL

        Hi there Molly, I sure hope you are doing OK!

        Greetings to everyone & sending wishes for a fabulous AF Thursday for all. I'll check in later!

            Morning everyone.
            I can't believe it is warmer here than where you all are....and I am in Canada! Last year it was in the -20's at this time. Sorry about the crap weather Lav, Mick , everyone else.

            Hi Mols and Pie.

            Pauly, glad you found such a great counsellor. That makes All the difference for sure.

            Its a great day here, happy to be sober.
            Talk soon.

              They're making margaritas on some show I'm watching, I never cared for them anyways, always gave me the shits haha,I'd be happier with a Slurpee work was ok,witch #1 went home early yay,Lav,I forgot to mention I was reading super old threads one night and you were talking about amoryn to someone and you were 6 weeks sober, it was weird to read that,I'm just used to you now being years sober something that was brought up yesterday by the counselor is he doesn't like antabuse,I guess he was court ordered to take it at a clinic daily and drank on it numerous times, he's concerned I would too,I said I may be a little crazy but I'm not stupid haha

                MAE ALL.....boss shut it down early again today :yay:

                Mick...thanks for kicking us off this morning. Cody's doing good these days, thanks for asking. He's spending more time out at Strathmore but we're in touch all the time. Thanks for the pick of the shuttles. Can hardly wait to see what you come up with.

                Molls...hope your day went good. I'm still 20 in my mind too. I think that's when the heaviest of my drinking was done and the maturity brain cells are still comatose. Are you off another week or is it back to the grind on Monday?

                Pie...tried googling Pie Pulling but didn't find anything related to a sporting event. :shakingno:

                Lav...at least we're not getting the polar vortex this year. The jet stream is farther east this year but heading straight for you. Keep Stella and the rest of the girls safe.

                Pauly...sorry about the insomnia that just sucks! Do you think hubs will go with you to the counselors? It sounds like you've got a winner there.

                Well now that I have this extra time on my hands I should see what I can come up with for supper. Snow's supposed to start tonight/tomorrow and then clear up on Sunday. Seems it's always the way as I haven't gotten Dad outside in ages. Hope you all have a peaceful evening......:smile:PPQP

                  Hey PPQP, I'm guessing Cody is your son?if so glad he's feeling better, anxiety is a horrible thing to deal with, I know that stupid drinking caused mine,I NEVER had it before, just the normal anxiety in stress situations, not having it chronically for no reason yes hubs will come with me, I just hafta make the appointment on one of his slow days at work, have a good night

                    Yup, he's my son Pauly. While we were going through the anxiety/depression over Xmas I talked a lot about drinking as that's what I could relate it to. He hasn't mentioned a therapist yet and I'm giving him some space before bringing it up again. Glad to hear hubs will go with you, that'll help a lot. Maybe it'll sink in more coming from someone else. It's true, those that don't have a problem with AL just don't understand. My ex included. LOL

                          Hey SF.....nice and easy, good to see you.

                          Lav...just heard on the news that it's not a Polar Vortex but a Siberian Express....that explains the shift to the East.

                          Pauly....Google soil for planter boxes and you can "cheaply" put together your own. Hope you can get some sleep tonight.

                            Pauly, the next time I walk into my hairdresser's and she complains of a sleepless night, I've promised myself to give her a hug, and then leave before the scissors come out. The haircut I got on Monday can best be described as an adventure. :eek-new:

                            PQ, I should've figured you'd fact-check my tall tale! Laughed out loud when I read your comment. How goes it on the housing front?

                            Mick, meant to say that I like the look of your tiles very much. My favorite joke today is the green paint one, which may give you some idea of how many of my brain cells are still operating tonight.

                            Hey Lav, Nar, Sunflower. Also Sam, Det, SL, and TT and others who may come by later.

                              Most of my brains were sucked out by the grandsons tonight, Ha Ha!!!
                              I need to just go to bed.

                              SF, glad you checked in & hope you are OK. I heard about the cold weather in your neck of the woods too. Stay warm!

                              PQ, the weather folks did mention Siberian Express too - first time I've ever heard that term in relation to the weather ~ weird.
                              Glad to hear your son is doing well, what a relief!

                              Pauly, good going on the counselor. I hope you get what you need & continue to build on your AF success
                              Funny that you are looking at such old posts. Nothing has really changed though - AL is still a problem if we allow it back into our lives

                              Narilly, we are about to break long standing weather records here with a -2F predicted for tomorrow morning. The schools are all either closed or on a 2 hour delay tomorrow. So this is what it feels like to live in Canada huh??

                              Wishing everyone a peaceful night!
