We had the most wonderful Thanksgiving holiday by the ocean with my sweet daughter and friends. The icing on the cake, was seeing The perfect film yesterday. I haven't had time yet to write the full Movie Review, but in the meantime here's my latest Momma Movie Rating...

I have a slight change in holiday plans... Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. I'm telling you in advance, so don't act surprised. Since Ms. Stewart won't be coming, I've made a few small changes: Our sidewalk will not be lined with homemade, paper-bag luminaries. After a trial run, it was decided that no matter how cleverly done, rows of flaming paper sacks do not have the desired welcoming effect and quite frankly, I do hate to waste my favorite head gear. The dining table will not be covered with expensive linens, fancy china, or crystal goblets. If possible, we will use dishes that match and everyone will get a fork. Since this IS Thanksgiving, we will refrain from using the plastic Peter Rabbit plate and the Santa napkins from last Christmas. Our centerpiece will not be the tower of fresh fruit and flowers that I promised. Instead we will be displaying a hedgehog-like decoration handcrafted from the finest construction paper. The artist assures me it is a turkey. We will be dining fashionably late. The children will entertain you while you wait. I'm sure they will be happy to share every choice comment I have made regarding Thanksgiving, pilgrims, and the turkey hotline. Please remember that most of these comments were made at 5:00am upon discovering that the turkey was still hard enough to cut diamonds. As accompaniment to the children's recital, I will play a recording of tribal drumming. If the children should mention that I don't own a recording of tribal drumming, or that tribal drumming sounds suspiciously like a frozen turkey in a clothes dryer, ignore them. They are lying. We toyed with the idea of ringing a dainty little silver bell to announce the start of our feast. In the end, we chose to keep our traditional method. We've also decided against a formal seating arrangement. When the smoke alarm sounds, please gather around the table and sit where you like. In the spirit of harmony, we will ask the children to sit at a separate table. In a separate room. Next door. Now I know you have all seen pictures of one person carving a turkey in front of a crowd of appreciative onlookers. This will not be happening at our dinner. For safety reasons, the turkey will be carved in a private ceremony. I stress "private" meaning: Do not, under any circumstances, enter the kitchen to laugh at me. Do not send small, unsuspecting children to check on my progress. I have an electric knife. The turkey is unarmed. It stands to reason that I will eventually win. When I do, we will eat. Before I forget, there is one last change. Instead of offering a choice between 12 different scrumptious desserts, we will be serving the traditional pumpkin pie, garnished with whipped cream and small fingerprints. You will still have a choice: take it or leave it. So in closing I repeat, Martha Stewart won't be dining with us this Thanksgiving. She probably won't be coming next year either.
I am thankful. Love... The Momma

It's about dedication, determination, hard work, struggle, enthusiasm, & a refusal to give up.
The Hunk & I, as an ISP & a web designer, are tired of the Internet being a playground for spammers & hackers, or the focus of T.V. talking heads & politicians with luddite fears that it only exists to invade our privacy, threaten National security or make our children accessible to porn & pedophiles, we look forward to being able to help a deserving young woman use the 'net for what it was intended... as a way to share & inform & create a global community. I'm very pleased to report that we've been in contact with Sarah. Her new domain www.dodgerplace.com [thanks to Michael Silva & an unknown donor] is live & well & hosted for free by BBS-LA with great pleasure & admiration for this courageous lass for as long as she desires! Thank you Mr. Plastchke for writing about this spunky aspiring reporter. Now Sarah, I still love football better than baseball :-) but you can count on me as your number one fan sweetie! You Go Girl!

Goliath is stomping again... this time on you!
Windows XP [yet to be released], Office XP [in release] and Internet Explorer 6 [in beta but soon to be released], all contain varying degrees of SmartTag technology. This technology, by most reputable and knowledgable folks opinion, should be a major concern for end users, web designers, ISPs, and owners of any form of intellectual property that can be read, or viewed, or otherwise used on a computer. Read all about... MICROSOFT SMART TAGS and be afraid people... be very afraid! To prevent Smart Tag links from appearing on your pages you'll need to insert the following code between the <head></head> tags on all your Web pages: <meta name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="TRUE"> and for those of you trying to sign or view my guestbook, I'm assured that the technical difficulties are being worked on and it will be back online within 48 hours.

Talk about your coding animal house... It seems that Mz Nyla is just like any other female who's ever moved into a new place... redecorating is always first up on the To-Do list. Now lookie what she has gone & done to... Kimba's Kritter Korner! She's accessorized & coded a complete re-do of the Korner [some features still pending] with lots of new feline funnies & stuff for you all to enjoy. And not to be outdone by a coding cat... The Anonymutt went & fluffed up her section with new Doggie Delights as well. This could get problematic with all these animals vying for my keyboard.

Aaah, the first day of a new month... I'm missing Da Hunk since he had to be away on business for a few days (However having complete control over The remote & the toilet seat remaining fixed in the down position is a delightfully positive aspect of his departure.) Add to that, something has crawled under our casa & died there I fear, since the air in the love nest is permeated with the ripe, noxious odor of decaying flesh. Did I mention, that I cannot open the windows, since the neighbor (two feet from my main window) has rented one of those bouncy blow-up thingies run by an industrial strength generator, for the neighborhood kiddies to bop around in. (at last count the darn thing has been running for ten straight hours now!) So it's hot AND smelly too! Oh & of course to add insult to injury, my steady faithful mail program of over five years, took a header... crashed & burned taking tons of mail, addys & lists (never to be seen again) with it down the rabbit hole. Can you feel my self pity?!? And how's your day been? p.s. For all you Goofie hungry visitors (& you know who you are :-), I have received your requests (not to worry) & I'll be creating some new ones soon, once I recover from the bender I'm planning on starting at any moment now. It's gonna be a bumpy ride... Cheers!

Yeah, I've sure got the great stories (the good, the bad & the ugly) from working in the psychiatric field for almost twenty years. I also can fill your ears with stories of my own personal attacks while trying to stomp on mental illness.

The executive was interviewing a young blonde for a position in his company. He wanted to find out something about her personality so he asked, "If you could have a conversation with someone, living or dead, who would it be?" The blonde quickly responded, "The living one." Lawsy... I'm so blonde I didn't even know yesterday was National Blonde Day. I mean like... Who knew? Sheesh... I probably could of scored some presents for this blonde momma.

Twenty five years ago today, I was in a Michigan hospital pregnant & suffering with a horrible case of chicken pox. My body was literally covered with pox... 'n when one is over nine months pregnant, lemme tell ya, that's alot of body & alot of pox! I looked like one of those huge Macy Thanksgiving Day parade balloons that had been dragged down a gravel road. Although my fever had ebbed, I still itched, felt like death warmed over, and was wallowing in the pity pot. Believe me, I was not having a good time... Then I received a gift that changed this day from dark to light, a gift that continues to fill my life with giggles 'n sunshine. The one gift that just keeps on giving and truely gets better and better with time. Happy birthday baby girl!

Q: How many women with PMS does it take to change a light bulb? A: One. Only ONE!! And do you know WHY? Because no one else in this house knows HOW to change a light bulb! They don't even know that the bulb is BURNED OUT! They would sit in the dark for THREE DAYS before they figured it out. And, once they figured it out, they wouldn't be able to find the light bulbs despite the fact that they've been in the SAME CUPBOARD for the past 17 YEARS! But if they did, by some miracle, actually find them 2 DAYS LATER, the chair they dragged to stand on to change the STUPID light bulb would STILL BE IN THE SAME SPOT!! AND UNDERNEATH IT WOULD BE THE WRAPPER THE STUPID @*!#$% LIGHT BULBS CAME IN! WHY? BECAUSE NO-ONE EVER CARRIES OUT THE GARBAGE! IT'S A WONDER WE HAVEN'T ALL SUFFOCATED FROM THE PILES OF GARBAGE THAT ARE 12' DEEP THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE HOUSE. THE HOUSE! IT WOULD TAKE AN ARMY TO CLEAN THIS #@*$!#@ HOUSE! I'm sorry ... what did you ask me?

All you need is love... the good: So there I was basking in the afterglow of a perfect day...
the bad: Then came a different kinda love in the form of a nasty virus on Monday resulting in tons of work for me, creating chaos on my computer & the loss over 4,000. yeah count 'em, 4,000 graphic files I had made. In all the years I've been active on the net, I've always run my Norton Virus Scan & just when I had slacked in sending the payment for my virus definition upgrade subscription & turned the sucker off...Whammo! Frankly, I'd rather have Sunday's kinda love 'n of course some chocolate! |
