[twogun]

[Kool]

morning Kool, hows that QOTW list going?

It's almost done twogun, couple of spots left. :D

[Drorain]

Got me large "turbo ice" coffee from 'dunkin donuts' hmmm taaaaaaaaaaaaaasty and delicious caffiene

can I go home now?

[twogun]

in that case.......mmmmmmmmmm

"there was a young girl form Kilkerry" no that wont work......mmmmmmm
"what do you call a man with no arms?".........."dirty bum", too crude.....mmmmmmm
i know, a song!.......

The indians send signals
From the rocks above the pass
The cowboys take positions
In the bushes and the grass
The squaw is with the corporal
She is tied against the tree
She doesn’t mind the language
It’s the beating she don’t need
She lets loose all the horses
When the corporal is asleep
And he wakes to find the fire’s dead
And arrows in his hats
And davy crockett rides around
And says it’s cool for cats
The sweeney’s doing ninety
’cos they’ve got the word to go
They get a gang of villains
In a shed up at heathrow
They’re counting out the fivers
When the handcuffs lock again
In and out of wandsworth
With the numbers on their names
It’s funny how their missus’
Always look the bleeding same
And meanwhile at the station
There’s a couple of likely lads
Who swear like how’s your father
And they’re very cool for cats
They’re cool for cats

To change the mood a little
I’ve been posing down the pub
On seeing my reflection
I’m looking slightly rough
I fancy this, I fancy that
I wanna be so flash
I give a little muscle
And I spend a little cash
But all I get is bitter and a nasty little rash
And by the time I’m sober
I’ve forgotten what I’ve had
And ev’rybody tells me that it’s cool to be a cat
Cool for cats

Shake up at the disco
And I think I’ve got a pull
I ask her lots of questions
And she hangs on to the wall
I kiss her for the first time
And then I take her home
I’m invited in for coffee
And I give the dog a bone
She likes to go to discos
But she’s never on her own
I said I’ll see you later
And I give her some old chat
But it’s not like that on the tv
When it’s cool for cats
It’s cool for cats.......
Surely that's done it!!!!

[G-Man79]

How is that Turbo Ice, Dro? I've seen the ads but have yet to try one.

[TheBluePanda]

Wayy to early to be reading poetry.
This time yesterday I was pretty sick, but I'm feelin better today thus far, thank goodness.

[reuber1]

The mumps spread to Florida. Way to go, Panda! :p

[Drorain]

How is that Turbo Ice, Dro? I've seen the ads but have yet to try one.

for the price its quite good, if they load it up with cream you dont really taste the bitterness of expresso, but with milk you still get that extra kick which I like. I'm going to ask for 2 shots next time.

[twogun]

bloody hell c'mon guys, you lot are far too sleepy this morning, i'm gonna finish in two and a bit hours.....it's like you've just got out of bed!!!! teee hee!!

[Drorain]

Hey roobs be glad your not working at the big T anymore, you've less contact with the public

[Mynock]

But mummy I don't wanna to go to school.

[Drorain]

speaking of which, I'm jealous of you twogun, I wanna visit england so bad, it's where my family came from (well my favorite heritage)

sigh I wanna travel the world...I may seriously think about uping myself to Japan for a couple years too, although this would be in the distant future.

[reuber1]

Hey roobs be glad your not working at the big T anymore, you've less contact with the publicDefinitely, I've had the most health-deficient people come up within my private space and hack up a lung when I worked there. Ugh, go quarintine yourselves.

You know what's hilarious, is that I went shopping there yesterday, and was talking to a buddy who got promoted to the position that I left from, and as I was talking he had to go help someone quick, and then a woman came up to ME and asked me if "we" had something in stock at the store that was on sale; I must have been so popular there that people friggin' remember me. :rolleyes:

What's even funnier is when she got kind of mad when I told her "I don't know, I haven't worked here for four months."

[twogun]

speaking of which, I'm jealous of you twogun, I wanna visit england so bad, it's where my family came from (well my favorite heritage)



why do you want to visit that badly Dro? i've been over your neck of the woods a couple of times, toured the west coast and all that, San Fran down to San Diego and into Mehico.....twas fab!! loved the culture and people....(maybe that wil get me onto QOTW, genius!!)

whats the MA for, is that Massive Chew Sets? (that what the Bee Gees have you know!!)

oh and one last thing to really get you guys down, its not only mid afternoon and nearing time to think about beer, but its our Easter break here and we all shut down till Tuesday!!! ha ha ha!!! enjoy!!

[G-Man79]

You could have really messed with her Roob and just led her aimlessly around the store for an hour or so. That would give her a real reason to be pissed.

[Drorain]

yup, that happens to me at the supermarket a year after I quit..although I know alot of those people now personally, I can chat with them for an hour....8 years of history there.

hmm, on of my coworkers just came in and I said hi twice, no reply...even looked right at her...she was out sick yesterday...whats up with that, I'm curious

[Drorain]

MA is massachusetts, New England...I suppose our climate is much like yours, and most of our people here are originally from Great Britan, I just like England and Ireland. I think the people are quite warm, love the accent...especially an blond irish dame with a thick accent...hot!

I'm also interested in history, my family came from there back in the 1600s I want to follow the family tree back there.

[twogun]

new england is where i would love to visit, apparently its rather nice in the autumn (you call tha fall i beleive)

what part of england are your ancestors from?

[Drorain]

the last name on that side of the family is Ball...John Ball, came over on the Arbella with John (Winthrop)? I think... to help establish the mass bay colony which is now Boston. The family came from a city beginning with W, Wellington, or something its been about 10 years since I did the family report. I need to go back and look for it.

[twogun]

facinating.......how long did the research take you?

[reuber1]

You could have really messed with her Roob and just led her aimlessly around the store for an hour or so. That would give her a real reason to be pissed.I came so close. I WILL do that next time to someone.

[Drorain]

my grandmother actually found a book with a recorded history of it all in a local library, she even took images of headstones and sent me all of the photocopies...I was in the 8th grade so I really forget how long. But once the right resource was located it was cake to do it.

[morea]

not the interview yet, I had to meet with the friendly people at the unemployment office. I went in and continuously demanded donuts until the meeting was over, and also managed to get some of the employees there on my side.

No donuts materialized though. :(

[balou]

Thanks Twogun - Cool for Cats - had to go find my Squeeze on itunes. Had been a while since it landed on that one! Better than coffee!

And I want a spring break! Holidays are scarce between January and May.

[twogun]

[morea]

[Drorain]

[twogun]

[balou]

wow, sounds like a spin!, dont get sucked in by any s***t though, just keep your Kool!

LOL! You're really fishing for that QOTW aren't you?!

[twogun]

[rickself]

[JPnyc]

I assumed so. Did I commit a faux pas?

[twogun]

lol and I wonder to myself...just who is in the 'post-modern' secular society lol

not sure what that means but it might be me!!! (having real trouble with the butler today you know)

[Drorain]

nothing really meant by it except that on our news Bill Oreilly would have us think Europe is full of hethens that have abandoned all forms of Christianity...but here I find you have a 4 day weekend *cry*

[balou]

Bill Oreilly would have us think Europe is full of hethens that have abandoned all forms of Christianity

Isn't that the journalist that likes to talk dirty to his co-workers? And if that's the case in Europe, I'll be right over.

[Satchel]

Isn't that the journalist that likes to talk dirty to his co-workers?

I thought it was his babysitter?!

[Drorain]

lol, yah he likes them to play with 'toys' or something, ah well. so we all awake now, two guns about off for work I think, so he can fly over and buy us drinks...we'll all meet in california in about 6 hours...sounds grand

[twogun]

http://www.vinestreetlounge.com/

[Satchel]

Jeez, I leave for a class come back and this place is dead!!!

[Mynock]

The coffee is gone.

[reuber1]

NOTHING LIKE A ONE HOUR DRIVE HOME THAT NORMALLY TAKES 20 MINUTES BECAUSE A MORON DRIVING A DUMPTRUCK HAULING A BULLDOZER FEELS LIKE HE NEEDS TO PULL OUT IN FRONT OF YOU BECAUSE HE IS AN IDIOT.

*Whew*Needed to get that out. Man that pissed me off.

[reuber1]

Hmm, looks like we're about to get rocked by some nasty storms. Just west of here has been hail, TONS of lightning, high winds, and apparently several tornados. Mother Nature is Iowa's bully.

And speak of the devil, I hear it now. I'm out.

[Drorain]

be safe

[reuber1]

OK, so everyone from the weatherman to all the citizens were predicting impending doom, and what happens? Pfft, a little rain and thunder.

Actually, there has been one death, several homes destroyed, some golf-ball to baseball sized hail. But as soon as it got to us, it fizzled out into a bunch of nothing. Good thing though.

[balou]

I was wondering about you. Where is Iowa City?

[Mynock]

In Iowa, I think.

[reuber1]

About an hour and a half west of me. We were getting kinda worried for a while, there were like 5 sections of bright red on the doppler, two of them with purple, and one of them had a black hole in it. And they were heading straight for us, and suddenly they went south east instead of east.

[balou]

In Iowa, I think.

Are we still a bit groggy this AM. :D

[Jeizzavelle]

Half day today *dancing*

[balou]

Am glad it didn't hit you. But how cool to have a black hole show up on doppler!

[The_Black_Knight]

About an hour and a half west of me. We were getting kinda worried for a while, there were like 5 sections of bright red on the doppler, two of them with purple, and one of them had a black hole in it. And they were heading straight for us, and suddenly they went south east instead of east.The one thing to remember about black holes: stay away from the event horizon, and everything will be fine. You may be tempted to stand a little ways from it and throw stuff in there, just to watch it get destroyed by intense gravitational tidal forces. You must resist this temptation.

[Jeizzavelle]

Shhh...everyone's asleep.

[reuber1]

Looks like I got lucky.
