2008 Live Chipmunk tour
Has anyone here seen the live 2008 Chipmunk tour? It is free to go and they are coming to my state on the 28th. The mall is a two-hour drive away-- at least and I would have to pull my girls from school to make the show just wondering if it is as good as the movie or not worth the trouble. 
i don't think she is chasing him. sm
why would she call you up to tell you about the seeds if he was there on her property? that alone would be a good excuse to talk to him to pass on that info, but instead she called you and told you. to me it sounds like a woman who isn't interested in a lot of other men coming to her property for only her. it sounds like she was giving him that info to let him know if that was what he was after, don't waste his time.
I dream he and George are chasing me. Being them,
x
sounds like you are chasing him too much. if you care, let him show how much he really cares. sm
you said you primarily communicate via phone, text, and emails. do you ever see each other in person? you need to back off as other's suggested and see what he does. when he asks why he hasn't heard from you just tell him i wanted to see if you cared enough to contact me since i am always the one contacting you. maybe that will get him to thinking. most guys like a chase, not being chased so just keep that in mind.
Hes gorgeous!!!!
and it looks like he feels really at home in his new home.
On another note, watched a bit of the "animal talent show" on Animal Planet earlier today (caught the tail end of it -- no pun intended), but they had a dog on there who would literally hop on the door of a running dryer and retrieve tennis balls -- blew my mind!!!
WOW!!! That is gorgeous. nm
nm
Up. Fake but gorgeous! lol (we think so at least!)
nm
My Stars! He is GORGEOUS! sm
wow! I would snap him up in a minute! I cannot imagine anyone putting that beautiful dog up for adoption, but you are so lucky! If your DH is not into showing, perhaps putting out for stud? there is money in that too, and he would make some beautiful puppies!!! I cannot imagine your other dog rejecting him, but maybe more than one visit would be a good idea. Good luck to you! ks
He's *gorgeous* with a pedigree to die for. sm
I'm jealous! ;o) BTW, the win he had under judge Kathleen Kanzler (Innisfree Siberians) is very impressive. She and her daughters are very well known and respected in Siberians. It was her dog that won Best of Show at Westminster (in 1984, I think it was). Try not to get bitten by the show bug.  It's a whole other world.
I hope Sasha likes him so he can live with you!
She is just gorgeous. You can see the gentleness in her!!! NM

As I said - they are gorgeous creatures
I watched one eat a mourning dove but usually try not to watch. They pluck and leave a great pile of feathers. Great Horned Owls can get cats - in case you have one - but their favorite food is skunks - a bird of prey expert told me that the white stripe makes a good landing strip at night!! I too keep the camera close by, got a couple, but usually by the time I get focused he has moved on.
What a gorgeous horse!! sm
I am sure he is just as happy where he is now as he was with you! You saved his life once and he won't forget that! Bless you both!
your baby is gorgeous!!!! sm
I have three bassets, 12, 11 and 8 years old. I love my dogs! I'm a huge animal lover, they are like my kids. Bassets are very stubborn. It took a while to train our first basset. Our second basset (Lucy) we got when Flash was 1 year old. Lucy wasn't as hard to train as Flash was. Our third basset I got when he was about 5 years old. He was used to being outside, and he wasn't hard to train either. I'd giver her some time. They are such loyal dogs!!! Great with kids too.
I think she is gorgeous...congratulations!
:)
Weather was just too gorgeous today.
I went outside in a sleeveless shirt to decide how to dress to walk the dogs, and ended up tidying up the yard instead! Won't my neighbors be relieved, LOL.
Yes, the dogs eventually got their walk, but first I fed them. Sasha decided not to eat tonight ... until I explained that we'd go for a walk only after she ate. She ate it right up and then did her time-for-my-walk dance!
Hope this weather makes it up north soon.
Gorgeous kitty! Will pray it all goes well! :) nm

FRED is gorgeous!!!!! Thanks 4 sharing...nm
GORGEOUS pet-collars! Check this out.... -sm
To all of you pet-lovers out there:
I've seen lots of websites offering fancy dog and cat collars, but nothing like this one! There are pages and pages of lovely sparkly rhinestone collars.... it took me forever to finally choose one for my new little princess-kitty!
If your pampered pet could use a little "bling", you'll love this site!
They are gorgeous, and he is just too adorable for words!!! NM

What a gorgeous colt! From your description - sm
of his temperament, and liking to do 'interesting' things, I'll bet he'd made a great police horse, or be fantastic in trail-horse competition at shows! (Not to mention excellent for actual trail-riding!) What a cutie!
I've had horses in the past; my last one, a dark brown thoroughbred, was a Hunter/Jumper. I got him when he was just 3 years old & unbroke, and he finally died at age 25. Can't afford them anymore (live in an apt., so have to board...) but I do miss it!
yeah but...Mexico is gorgeous. Hey, I went to Cancun. I look at sm
it this way: If more of us were to vacation and spend our money there enjoying their gorgeous wild life and pretty beaches, that would give them plenty of tourist money and they wouldn't have to leave their country! I respect those hard-working Mexicans who stay in Mexico (like the ones who courted us at the resort), and I support the likes of them. They work hard, stay in their country, and I will give them good tips and help them to help their families as I enjoy snorkeling, deep sea fishing, and great food.
I wouldn't put all Mexicans into a box and say that you wouldn't give them a dime. Yes, there are illegals here who have no morals and I certainly don't support them! But, like I said, I do support those hard-working ones who are staying in their own country. I don't see a problem in that.
Gorgeous night walk in the snow.....
Walked the dog last night around 8 pm. There are about 12" of snow on the ground, covering the pines, the roof tops, and blanketing the side street where I live. It was breath-taking, which might have been due to it being 23 degrees, but more so because the sky was inky black with a few clouds here and there, and the stars were so bright. The tress without their leaves were silver, contrasting against the black sky, stars twinkling through their branches. The pines were still bent with the weight of snow and snow-covered Christmas lights on the trees glowed dimly. My footsteps crunching on the packed snow was the only sound heard, with the occasional snorting pig imitation my moronic dog does when snow gets up her nose from sniffing too strongly.
I hate having to dress like Nanook of the North and looking like the Michelin Tire Man, but walks in the night like that make me forget about the insanity I endure M-F, at least for a little while.
Technically it is still fall, this is Maine, so I might have a different take on the snow come March.
Lucky, you! I am sorry I got the spelling of this gorgeous breed SM
wrong. I study dog breeds, know every one in the dog shows, etc. and then made that fo-pa. Not intentional, I assure you. They had the Pembroke and Cardigan. You would have loved it.
Yes. You must make a point to see this next year. It is so adorable and a change of pace for those of us who don't watch the football game. They have them on what looks like a football field with lots of toys and they are all running around, and they play a sound track in the bakground that sounds like fans cherring in the crowd!
She is gorgeous, and a twin to my niece's beautiful cat, Nina! NM

Doesn't Shemar have the most gorgeous smile you've ever seen? nm

Sunny, gorgeous October day in Cali - (guess that's
Gorgeous! Very nice coat! Does she have a bit of corgi in her? Looks like our corg/shep. mix. nm

Can't pick just one . . . sm
Dances with Wolves, original Rocky, Bladerunner, A River Runs Through It, The Way We Were and The Notebook are my faves
I can't pick just one either...
I like lighthearted stuff mostly - How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Lucky Seven, Wedding Date, Wedding Planner, Never Been Kissed.
But, also really liked Contact and U-571 and A Time to Kill (see the Matthew McConaughey pattern emerging?) And Dead Poets Society is also one of my favorites (I cry at the end every time - My Captain, my Captain!  ) Oh, and It's A Wonderful Life - I watch it every Christmas by myself because no one else will watch it with me.
Good question.
They always pick someone..... sm
I would immediately have a discussion with her about this and if she continues to be this way towards you and your daughter I would take it to the principal of the school. My son had a teacher last year that kept him after constantly and he was only in the second grade. I asked her to keep him in at recess instead of after school as I have someone picking him up daily who cannot wait on him and she did not so I took it over her head. There is not a teacher alive that is going to pick me or my child to be "the chosen one" for that year to pick on.
My wife doesn't let me hang out on a forum dripping with all you gorgeous chicks unattended....sm
And every now and then I catch her eyeing me in a speculative sort of way out of the corner of her eye while idly twirling the little Beretta that I was foolish enough to teach her how to shoot.
Now, I don't say she's actually made any verbal threats. No, no - nothing like that. But it's not too hard to interpret the occasional warning shot that whistles past my head.
Thanks Dillybug! I will have to pick one up!
Anything to make the job easier as I hate to clean the tub!
my dog would try to help me pick strawberries,
eating them off the plant as i picked. But i saw a list in my vet's office about all the foods toxic to dogs/cats. It is generally best just not to feed people food to animals.
Pick your poison
I figure you can do one of two things:
First, buy the Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus books and learn how to talk like a man. You know - short, sweet and to the point or maybe just a couple of grunts. No blow-by-blow descriptions. None of that emotional/feelings garbage. Don't use him as a sounding board for ideas - ask his opinion only if you want him to fix the problem. All that [insert your expletive here] stuff.
Second, and the one I would prefer, is to go out and buy a T-shirt that says *If I'm Talking You Should Be Taking Notes*. Actually, I'd get several in various colors, one for every day of the week.
And I wonder why I'm not married! (she grins)
Sisters . . can't pick em
As the oldest of 10, 2 brothers, one passed on quite young, and 6 sisters, it's bittersweet. Sometimes I think I am the odd one as I don't think like my sisters, and therein lies the problem. Our parents died young. Three of us married sisters took in two younger ones each, and did a relatively good job, not great, but they were loved, cared for, included in everything, and I truly enjoyed and relished their company. Now we are all adult women, and I hardly see them because they are too weird. I have always praised them, and have always been proud of them. They all educated themselves, have masters and bachelor degrees in the medical field. What they have in education they lack in common sense or the ability to gain insight. It amazes me and floors me that they hate my mother's family. My sisters target them for neglect and abandonment, when in reality we had lousy, abusive parents who did not take care of themselves, which is in part why they died so young. My sisters focus their hurt on our mother's family. My sisters are narcissistic, antisocial, and completely paranoid of me because I do get along with my mother's family. My sisters do not include me in any of the holiday functions. Oh well, I say, I am the lucky one because I can be objective, look at painful situations, hold no one accountable for my lot in life, gain insight and grow from my past, and love being around people and socializing. What hurts me is that I have finally figured out why they are so distant with me - pretty much without saying it clearly, this summer, the sister I was the closed to, had a talk with me and pretty much feels that it would have been better if they had been adopted out!! Unbelievable. That is so easy to say because it did not happen that way. Now, I think the only sad part is that they all have such beautiful children, and what a loss that they do not allow me to have a relationship with them. I would love to have a relationship with my nieces and nephews, take them out, have them over for sleep overs, and cookie baking. Life is so funny sometimes. In spite of it all, I think that I am the one truly blessed and pretty lucky.
HMR is better - and you can pick and choose
My mother got NutriSystem and most of the meals are unpalatable and I can eat about anything (some were okay). HMR is actually good. Difference is breakfast consists of shakes/cereal.
How do we pick a charity
I am wondering how to we pick a charity. Is there a list somewhere or do I have to find the local website? I would love to donate to animal shelters in my community, but not sure how to select it so funds would go to them.
4+ for me. Everyone has time to pick up a bit! nm..

He helped me pick it out!
I tried it on in front of him, too.
Here's a couple for you -- you pick!
1) I was on the phone with my boyfriend sitting on a no-back barstool. I was rocking back and forth against the wall when the barstool went out from under me. It not only went under me, the leg came back to jam me up the rectum. Of course I dropped the phone and immediately started yelling, IT HURTS, IT HURTS!! My boyfriend stayed on the phone all that time and my mom had to pick it up and tell him I'd have to call him back later I just gave myself an impromptu colonoscopy. Talk about red!! My butt hurt for like a week. I couldn't even poop for 2 days after that.
2) My boyfriend (now husband) and I were making out in an orchard one night. Afterwards, he took me home and the next morning I awoke to find my entire backside covered with poison ivy. I also noticed I was missing about $60 I had shoved into my pockets the night before. I immediately called my boyfriend and explained that it must have fallen out of my pocket in the orchard. Since $60 was a lot of money to me then (now it barely fills up my tank), I asked him to go back and look for it. Lucky for me he found it and I used it to buy some Calamine lotion. Man, did my butt itch for a week. We still laugh about this one. 
He would be my pick, but both very talented. NM

Not sure of websites, but pick a

I'm sure the kids will pick
out something perfect for them. I heard of a youth group name the other day and it is kind of cheesy but it stuck with me for some reason.
God Squad!
Don't cancel. When you pick it up again
if there are any "pre-existing conditions" then they can be excluded. I wnet for a little bit before getting insurance as I could not afford Cobra before my new job's insurance clicked in and then my daughter who had had an ovarian cyst 5 years ago was excluded for that and, of course, she had to go to the ER for another one 1 month before the new kicked in and we had a $4000 ER bill. DO NOT CANCEL>
I try to pick and chose- sm
in the Fall I usually have 4 going on at various times. Nuts for GS, candles for dance, flags/magazines for school and frozen cookied dough for school...the two school ones do not overlap but are only a few weeks apart from each other. The nuts and candles overlap the school ones though. Obviously I try not to bug my neighbors too much. We hit everyone up for GS, but for dance I just make a donation, and school we may ask a few people on the flag/magazine one, the cookied dough one I don't bother anyone, it is gross, and I still have stuff in my freezer from 2007 (which I have to chuck). Kids just brought home another one a few days ago for St. Judes (from school). I give to our local Children's Hospital and Make-A-Wish, and ASK (raises funds for MCV's Pediatric Oncology Dept.)so St. Jude's is out of luck there. I just do cash donations now if I want to donate that is, otherwise I do not go to the trouble to bother every soul I know to buy something, and never ask family except for the grandparents.
OP surely knows on herself that she has to pick
herself up and get going.
She is just down and wants to vent and looks for some compassion and support.
This forum is also a 'venting' forum for all our various frustrations.....
There should be a 'venting' Board with 'no bashing' allowed.
Where? I wanna go pick 'em myself.
Ponchatoula?
DH played the lottery, Pick 4, hit it
straight. What got me was he only played 50 cents, but he still won 2500. I would've played at least a dollar!! What was funny was that he had a job number and a work number that were the same number. He said that never happened in 30 years of working. Told him he had to play those four numbers for a week. Three days later, my "cheap" husband hit! I still tease him about it! and still kicking myself that I didn't play it too!! You just never know :)
I pick at them until they come off. Cheaper than a dr visit

If she stops meowing after you pick her up (sm)
she is probably not in pain. She would meow and may even lash out and bite if she were in pain. She wants lovins from her momma and some attention, it sounds like. Things to look for when it is the end (although not all animals are the same, of course): Sleeping/lethargy, not eating or drinking, urinating on self, etc. I know it's hard to hear *you'll know* but you really will. And if you are even questioning right now, it's probably not time and she just wants reassurance.
yes, you can practice by trying to pick up a towel (sm)
with your toes. Rather than doing the bending back and stretching, which I eventually started to think was actually aggravating my fasciitis, bend your toes under like you are going to pick something up with your foot.
