"Sunshine on your shoulders makes you happy, until you light a match, because life has been too crappy, and flames shoot out your a$$." Edited 'cause Dooj says I can't spell! As if I didn't know that....

Heavens no! I'm a lean, mean, interpreting machine! And sassier, because of the crab? No...probably from the Mojito's tho!

Gives new meaning to kiss my a$$

Ok I'm confused...didn't Dooj steal the wine from Bumpy? So is she now dispensing that which she has stolen? How very Christian of her! Crab...make me fat and sassy? Never! I say again... Never! I was fat and sassy long before I ate all that crab!

One of my fav subjects...especially when attatched to the right person.

Serving? Did you mention serving? Does that include bisquits and gravy? I am back from the bay...me, Notta and my sister shark have eaten half the crab in the bay so now its time for breakfast!

I'm not usually that subtle. Usually I just step up and say, "Buddy you have just crossed a line, you might want to put it in reverse." Sometimes I just tell some dumb SOB to take his or her happy a$$ elsewhere and leave me or my household alone!

"Unholy union"? You talking 'bout the Carpenters union or something? Can I hand out umbrella's?

I had to leave you something Notta! :) And she aint just whistling Dixie on the food and MOJITO'S being totally incredible!!! PS go ahead and post away!

That was by far one of the greatest times that I have ever had in Frisco! Belle and Notta are real class acts, and Belle's family is really sweet too! After dinner we had to bid farewell to Belle as she needed to leave with her family. She is just as sweet, loving and straight forward as she seems in her posts and contrary to what some may think she really is very Southern with all of the class and intelligence that comes from a real Southern Belle. :) I know that Notta and I were both very sad to say good bye so early to dear Belle. But alas we didnt let her get away scott free, we can always crash her house! Anyway Notta and I then wandered the pier looking for a cup of Peets coffee, those Mojito's pack a punch! We ended up watching one of those mobile street vendors use spray paint and scratch board techniques to make a most unusual and beautiful picture of Frisco's skyline. It was so nice we asked him to make another so I could buy it. We held on for as long as we could but it was getting late and the drive to Walnut Creek was about 40 minutes more. So we finally got in the car and headed out. I had never been in Walnut Creek, that I can remember, so it was really a good thing that Notta was navigating or I would probably be calling someone for directions from Tiajuana right now. Eventually it came time to say goodbye to Notta, I delayed that as much as I could but it was inevitable. :( Notta is a kind and gentle soul, she is a woman that thinks deeply and laughs easily. I was very sad to let go of her and say goodbye. But she didnt get off the hook either. The next time that she is even near the area we are meeting in Tahoe. My trip of a mile and a half back to my motel from the BART station (Notta had to pick up her car and I was lost enough...hehehe) anyway my trip to the motel was very quiet. When I finally entered my room at about 12:15 am I was exhausted, elated, overjoyed and a bit sad and lonely. It was my great honor to meet such incredible women. Belle please tell your father "Yes, it was worth the drive!" I used the next day to relax a bit on the Wharf and Coit's tower and China town and just all over town. I spent a ton of money and took a gazillion pictures all for my roomie and niece who could not make the trip with me because of school and work.

I enjoy talkshoe most of the time. There have been days when I could not participate...but it was because life does tend to catch up with me at times.

Obviously you have never had her cooking! And what the heck is a "meathead goat"?

Yeah, what waysider said, except its bisquits and gravy thay keeps me here! :P

Yup...the rumor is correct...Pier 39 look out!

Sweet! I got a Colgate smile!

You have to wait on any seconds on gravy 'cause I was a bit hungry this morning and ate it all. So does that make me a pig now? Or am I still a shark? Do they have pig sharks? They dont have an "internet shark", I looked it up. Ok I'm just a really hungry Tiger Shark. Oh yeh, in answer to the threads actual topic, I dont think it would be a good idea either, I cant copy recipes that fast. And one last thing before I go find lunch...Sharks eat Trolls we dont invite them to bisquits and gravy or accept birthday gifts from them.

Way cool! Do we have a back seat so we can invite our sister shark?

Sweetie I dont care if your are heartless, cruel, mean, ornery or anything else as long as you let me ride in the car!

Oh sure call your "people" what about your fellow sharks? Hmmm....dont you think that's just a bit heartless?

:D Nice save Notta! I will meet you in Tahoe anytime! Drinks are on me when you come visit!!

That was amazing, and sweet. Thank you.

I dont quite know what to think of this whole idea of "slain in the spirit" where people fall down and twitch and such. The jury is still out for that one in my mind. I do however find that the stories and experiences that you are sharing here are quite inspirational. I really love the stuffed toy story. Wow! I truly shy away from churches of any kind, and it is not entirely twi's fault. The church that I grew up in had as much to do with that phobia as anything twi did. But as I said in another thread, for the first time in nearly 20 years I am considering (seriously) going to church. Maybe this Saturday after work they have a service. Thanks all for sharing.

Thank you...it's a good thing my life didn't depend on my memory. <_<

I am in Nv. but I'm in Reno, which is a 3-4 hour drive from Frisco. Depending on how low I fly. PM me and let me know when you will actually be there and maybe we can meet up. That would be fun!

I wish you the happiest birthday ever, and may the year bring you great joy, love, laughter and growth! God Bless you always my dear friend. :) I love you , Teresa Oh Yea...I almost forgot...ENJOY YOURSELF!!!!!! and have a beer on me...well not "on" me..you know what I mean!
