      It's not Wednesday anymore. I'm a little late replying here. My bad. Regarding that talking camel, my nephew Matthew loves that commercial. He laughs & smiles everytime he sees it on TV.

  2. I'm cooking for 13 on Thanksgiving and had the menu all planned, list made, cooking timeline set.  One is vegetarian and I had plenty of veggie options.  I just found out another is both gluten and dairy free.  EVERYTHING has gluten and/or dairy. I am FREAKING OUT

      Cooking and eating gluten free is hell, I tried it once for fun for two weeks just to see what it was all about as almost a fad diet experimentation. It was during a hot period in the summer and it was easy just to eat salads with meat and then WHOOPS, salad dressings can have gluten!!!!! I had to stop it since I found out my husband was going through fast food drive thrus in private and was starving. lmao 

       

      Most meat and veggies do not have gluten. The gravy and stuffing would be a problem though. And I hate any deserts that are gluten free, ick. I mean give me a real desert.

       

      I am lucky I don't have to cook anything for Thanksgiving outside of making one desert lol.

      Good luck Nadine! I am sure it will all come out terrific in the end.

      I do feel for my niece.  Her digestive issues are tough.  I want her to have a nice thanksgiving. Here's hoping we chose well.  My daughters are baking pies today.  One will be gluten free. This feast is serious business!

      Just put the Bratwurst on. I have 8 of them for today and tomorrow. I am pretty much staying in all weekend and away from the crowd. Next 2 nights will be Brats and Beers and Baseball watching.

      that's true. So we need to renew our efforts to remind everyone :)

      Jim H.

      "Reminding" is a lot different than encouraging forum members to look for reasons to report people to "the authorities." Seems, I dunno...very secret police-like. But it's your website...police it as you deem proper.

    4. Nadine

      Nadine

      Jim that is not how it works here. We all need to contribute to keeping this a family friendly site. If you feel that it is nothing more than policing........then you did not read the terms of service when you joined.

  6. Been helping my daughter with her new house and she pointed out to me "you think caulk is the answer to everything" lol, guess I do, caulk, joint compound, and duct tape are a home owners best friends

      lol! I remember many many many years ago (BDT - before duct tape) my dads friend was doing a little (a lot) of fixer up and his home. The spacing between the walls - no paneling was a headache so he used masking tape. He taped the joints and painted over it and it looked great and it lasted many years.

    3. Nadine

      Nadine

      wow, never heard of that use for tape! I finished caulking baseboards in one room, and painted them. They are beautiful!

      So really where the T&G met up father's taped over it and painter over the tape. It worked!

    4. Nadine

      I am pretty good with technology. Generally better than my kids. The problem is that both Itunes and icloud are focused on getting you to give them more money. They don't make money when you load your own music......hence they make is really obnoxious

      Actually I was joking about the empty bookcase behind him.

      I have no idea how big an athletes contract is. I would imagine that there is a clause referencing both parties agreeing to comply with the CBA, which would eliminate the need for an awful lot of details.

      I'm sure it stinks being the one person on the planet who doesn't love the Beatles, but I still wouldn't call you a "walrus". :)

      Put plastic siding up Nadine. Then all you have to do is wash it off with a hose. No more painting ever again. SW1 loves no maintenance stuff AKA do it once & be done with it forever.

      yes, you cannot trap and relocate them without permits and to get those you have to prove you've tried to deter. The good news is, we hung a bunch of DVDs from the house.......and it looks very strange but so far it is working.

  20. I hate bundled 'promotional' pricing. It's just a way to jack up what you pay to an unreasonable price if you fail to watch the renew date. Also hate auto renewal. It's a way to do the same thing

      I got rid of ATT, in part because I was sick and tired of the 'rental fees' for the boxes they require I have, in part because most of the channels were pay per view/subscribe, and in part because when I went to look at 'renegotiating' there was also a charge for that. Went back to basic cable and bought a dvr which is what I mostly use anyway. Antenna TV works really well for most of what I watch. Now I have an issue with one of my tvs not getting anything near an ok pictur...
