I tried to go to the web page for the dancing banana but it does not bring up the banana.

Dancing Banana
You mean this guy? lol

OMG I LOVE that banana!
"It's peanut butter jelly time!" I'm such a simpleton!
Anna banana, thanks, that is very...
... gracious and generous, but I really have got it together and it's okay. You are so right; I'm looking forward to it being a lot of fun with my good friends at work! Thanks so much anyway--
banana nut cheerios
pretty good
I love Banana Boat...
EveryDay Glow Daily Moisturizing Lotion - Hint of Color! I just bought 2 bottles today for $4.96 each, probably the cheapest there is. It works great! It gets darker every day you apply, and it's just like lotion so it goes on nicely. I'm extremely white, and this gives me a nice color without looking fake. I use medium skin color. There's also a darker one. I usually put my own peachy lotion on afterwards to take away the smell.
Did you ever get one of those emails --
Did you ever get an email where it says to forward it to 5 people and watch the screen for something funny or cool? I get these a lot and nothing ever happens on my screen when I forward them to the said number of people. Is it just a scam to get you to forward it or is my computer blocking the image I'm supposed to see?
I'm not talking about the emails where you forward it to 10 people in 10 minutes and wait for the phone ring.
peanut butter and banana sandwiches
or peanut butter milkshakes
It is so necessary to montior their emails. sm
You did not say what age, but completely through high school. The internet is a dangerous place and they have no idea how dangerous. My daughter hate it, but I definitely monitored her access.
It's apparently one of *those* emails - it's not true...
http://www.snopes.com/critters/malice/elephant.asp
I check everything out on Snopes :)
If you knew what the emails said, you may think differently...
this has gone on for a few years now, either she wants to know me or not. One thing is for certain, she sure isn't getting all my information without giving something back. If she wants to meet face to face that's fine with me and if not, that's fine too. While I have curiosity, I don't spend my time wallowing in what could have, should have or would have been. That chapter of my life has been closed for many, many years and frankly the curiosity fades more and more with time.
Urban legend emails
What are your thoughts about forwarding/deleting good luck/bad luck emails (i.e. urban legend chain emails). Example: I get an email from one of my friends. Says to read the story then look at the photo. The story goes on to say that the photo is of a young boy who asked his friend to take a picture of him at a certain spot, The young boy whose photo was being taken screamed and fainted and 2 days later died of a heart attack. When the film was developed it showed this boy (actually looks like a teenager of Asian decent) and there stood a ghost next to him. The email goes on about how some man received this email forwarded it to 13 friends and received all this good luck and stated another man just deleted it and his whole life was ruined.
I'm thinking how gullible are these people. Also I'm looking at the pic and the ghost is definitely from some horror movie I've seen before (maybe The Ring). Can't quite place it but I know I've seen it somewhere before, which I think I've seen this boy before too in some other picture. So I'm thinking how silly are these people (which by the way my freind sent to to exactly 13 people). So I look up the place called Sundarbans and this is some urban legend. If you put that name in Google up pops a picture of the boy and the so called ghost.
What I'm wondering is how many of you out there actually forward on emails like this believing that you just might have good luck (you know, things like win a bunch of money, get the raise you've been asking for or a promotion, they guy you've been wanting to date mysteriously calls you, or you are offered free chocolate the rest of your life) HA HA, and how many of you just delete them. I am one who deletes them, and it irritates me to no end that my friends go and include me in part of their montage of people they are emailing, so now all their friends have my email ID. I guess I'm supposed to be obligated to send this email to 13 of my friends or else I become afflicted with some sort of bad luck. What is even worse than this kind of email are the so called "religious - good luck emails (i.e. I'm sending you this Angel to watch over you, she was sent to me by my good friend and I usually don't forward these things but my friend wouldn't lie about where it came from and she received the promotion she had always been wanting, blah, blah, blah!
So just curious if any of you out there are as annoyed at these kind of emails than I am. I know I could very nicely tell her to please not send me any more of these emails (which most of them I just delete anyway as soon as I see the word "Fw:" in the email address), but I don't want to hurt her feelings. I don't believe in any of that stuff. Maybe I will try searching for an article about urban legend emails and how if you just delete them nothing bad is going to happen.
On another note, I too have been caught up in the "send this email to all your friends and you will receive 12 days of good luck". Can't tell you how many of those emails I have forwarded on in my time (mostly religious emails) and never once has any good luck been bestowed upon me because of it. Who knows....maybe "The Big Man upstairs" (as my sister refers to him) gets annoyed that people are exploiting him like this.
Banana Pudding made with bananas and vanilla wafers
2 lg packages (or 4 small packages) INSTANT Vanilla pudding
3-1/3 cup cold milk
12 oz Cool Whip
1 cup sour cream
5-6 ripe bananas
1 box vanilla wafers
Mix pudding and milk until it starts to thicken. Gently stir in sour cream and Cool Whip. Mix well. In large dish or bowl put layer of vanilla wafers, layer of pudding, and layer of bananas, repeat layers. I ended up with enough pudding to put another layer on top of the bananas. Crush some vanilla wafers or just use crumbs in the box to garnish the top. Let it chill before serving. Delicious!!
Chain emails! You know, the ones that say send this to 10 friends and...
something good will happen to you in the next 30 minutes. I absolutely hate those! No offense to those who happily forward them whenever you get them, they just clog up my inbox and annoy me to death. I'd rather my friends just email me and let me know what's going on with them. I don't need some teary inspirational story to forward to the people I care about so I can be blessed.
Work related peeves - doctors who practically whisper when they dictate!
Update for anyone who cares. due to the emails I've sm
received regarding "how I'm doing, etc." I thought I'd give a quick update. Thank you all so much for your kindness and caring for a total stranger and her family.It means so much to me that others are thinking of me.
I ended up going to an ER and they prescribed Cymbalta and Xanax. Didn't the Xanax filled. I have no intentions of zoning out on Xanax. All I need is to become addicted to something.
I am not too happy with the Cymbalta. We didn't even discuss Cymbalta. We discussed another med, but I can't think of which antidepressant it was, but it wasn't that. Was surprised when I got it filled what he prescribed.
In any event, I have good days and bad days. Got a 2 week work excuse which I haven't abided by yet, either. I feel work keeps me grounded. I may still use it. I do need to focus and deal with my grief. I haven't done that yet. Been too busy. I like busy. Busy doesn't hurt.
Love to everyone here. Love is all that matters now. Love is all we need.
I get emails like this all the time, but it doesn't mean it's true!
I checked snopes.com and they are "researching it" to find out if this email is even true. There are urban legends about this stuff all the time, but most of them turn out to be proven false.
if actual threats then report it; keep all records/emails/calls for reference

Important to check source before posting/forwarding these types of emails and misinformation
Please, actually GO to www.snopes.com and read what they have to say about this negative e-email that has been circulating for months now. Right there at snopes, they debunk/clarify all of these mean-spirited accusations.
Specifically about it being factual and verified by snopes, it is NOT verified by them. Below I copied one paragraph from snopes.com but please go there read it in full so that you can hopefully choose not to pass on this Internet e-mail full of misinformation.
FROM snopes.com -
Variations: One version of the e-mail in circulation claims "We were told this was checked out on 'snopes.com'. It is factual. Check for yourself." and includes a link to this web site. It's our guess that whoever included that bit was counting on folks to not check, as our article says the opposite: that the polemic is not factual but rather is false.
Me again - Even if you do not care for Barack Obama, surely you do not wish to pass on lies or misinformation and engage in or extend the negative campaigning we all hope to NOT see much of... at least, I hope this is true, especially of people who talk about being Christian.
At least open your mind enough to read what Obama has to say about all of this misinformation. Between snopes.com and his own website, then make a decision whether or not to engage in actively passing on misinformation. Snopes is a great place to verify information that comes to all of us in these emails.

I sure hope all the good hearted folks on here won't flame me for encouraging us all to check things out before we post them or hit that FORWARD button.
Peace to ALL.
That's weird.
That portion of the toolbar says at the bottom of the left sidebar when I scroll up and down. Good luck!
Boy, they can just HAVE that weird,
.
no, thats weird, unless
like our daughter, whose husband just installed a new stove -- he didn't know about changing the orifices and had it set for natural gas instead of propane -- they didn't know it but they were gassing themselves a few days.
is it so weird?
People who are under stress are likely to do anything - whether it be physical or emotional or mental stress. If the auditors didn't catch the error for so long then I say shame on the foundation - this woman was obviously very ill.
Not weird but
I just started collected Willow Tree angels. They're precious. I believe in angels. Right after my sister passed away I was wandering through a store and out of the blue a woman asked me my opinion on a pillow - it had angels on it! I took it as a sign that my sister was telling me she was okay and was now my angel! I had goosebumps at the time.
That is so weird (sm)
Because if you're where I think you are from your signature, just up the highway they've had those avalanches, and here in Seeley we're snowing as I type, and have had at least two feet of white stuff in the last two weeks....of course, it did rain last night a bit before snowed again, and the same the other day. But still.....weird weather we're having, huh....and even read that where you are, you have less than normal snowfall, and it's "dry snow" ....so if they tell us come summer and fire season that this snow didn't count for anything, I'm gonna be reallllyyyyy po'd....lol.....anyhoo, keep dry.......
Not weird at all - sm
I think that definitely has something to do with his behavior. I often jokingly use that as a defense to friends/family when we're out and he starts acting up. We do try to do one-on-one things with each of our kids and will continue to do it. He just requires a little more one-on-one. Thanks for your post.
How weird is this?
My husband and I were just talking about that dweeb, Billy Mays, too! He gets on my nerves so bad. I cannot stand that dude.
Weird...
I don't practice feng shui yet but plan on learning...
I was looking at apartments to rent and walked into one (after looking at several) that just felt like 'home.' I couldn't explain it, but the feeling of peace, harmony and happiness just filled the apartment (occupied by a single nurse and her very large, very fluffy kitty).
I snapped the apartment up not only because it was beautiful but because of the incredibly positive energy the apartment exuded.
When I was signing the lease, I was explaining to the manager how good I felt about the place. She said, "I think maybe there's something to that feng shui the woman who lives there now does."
YEAH, DEFINITELY!!!!!!
no not weird,
i never was much good at the sewing part, but i do my own cleaning, make most my meals from scratch, and have made my own butter, enjoyed the simplicity in the past of a wringer washer...i think all the conveniences and hired services sometimes make for more stress, not less. there is a satisfaction to be had there, and it is the biblical way, in my opinion...carry on!! but by the same token, those who hire out help and use all the conveniences are not weird either...
No, definitely not weird...
I don't mind cooking and cleaning but some days with working and taking care of 2 little ones, it would be nice to just pay someone to do it...if we didn't have the money to do it though obviously it would not even be a consideration...believe me, we have money to have a maid come in once a week but my husband says no, so guess who does it??? me
that's really weird. Even Mom and Dad?
They probably suffer from dementia. Brother, also?
Don't be sad about the others.
I would mention it only to your parents, brother and boyfriend.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
and many more to come!
This may sound a bit weird., but /sm
I read your post and got to thinking about when I lived in a really large house and kept missing the knocks at the front door. I got myself one of those wireless doorbells, and would take the "bell" part from room to room with me when I was expecting a delivery... I wonder if you could take the part that usually screws onto the door frame and put it on a necklace or something for you mother to wear and "ring the doorbell" when she needs help, and then take the "bell" part from room to room. Actually mine was loud enough I didn't need to pick it up and move it unless I was going upstairs. They might even sell them with 2 or more receivers (what I call "bells") so you could hear it ring on whatever floor you are on.
Good luck. I took care of my uncle when he had lung cancer and we rigged up a baby monitor for him, but he was in a 1-story house and I could hear him except at night time, so I can empathize.
Yeah, its so weird
I can only lose weight doing low carbs too. I have done Weight Watchers and even staying in the points doesn't do any good if I am including too many carbs in there.
3 weird dogs
We have 3 dogs, one large, two small. The big dog is weird - he hides when he sees flashlight beams or hears electronic tones (like when the cell phone blows up) and it is so bad that he will knock over furniture trying to find a hiding place where he hunkers down and shakes and his paws sweat, so I guess these things really scare him. It is funny because he is huge and fearless most of the time.
The male small dog eats tomatoes right off the vine from the garden and likes to lick cast iron (antique sewing machine legs and a candle holder on my fireplace). He will lick these for hours. He eats great expensive food and takes vitamins too. So why???
The small female dog is a crack-up. She is one now and still acts like a puppy and carries her toys everywhere. She will for no reason run in small circles and then lie down flat on her stomach with her legs stretched out like superman flying. She sleeps lying on her back on a pillow like people do and snores like a freight train.
I guess you can tell that I love dogs! They are weird, but they are my babies.
THis is so weird because I had an email
from Paypal this morning confirming a purchase and I don't even have a Paypal account!!! I checked my bank account quickly but that seemed all in order. I sent the email to spoofpaypal.com for them to look into it.
Men are just weird some times##
.
Not weird at all - see inside
Men do stuff like this, most of them I expect. He just so happened to have you walk in on him. Please go to counseling to work through any problems you have, or go alone if he refuses to go. :-)
Seems weird he would go to craigslist
for help.
Okay, this may sound weird but.....
I have seen this in two different children in the family and they were all middle children. I know some may say there is no such thing as the middle-child syndrome but I say different. My daughter has two friends who were middle children growing up and they both had outbursts and seemed upset all the time, and their parents were constantly upset about them. In seeing this in my family and with friends, I really truly believe there is something to this. My mother is a middle child also and I can see she is perceived differently by her own siblings. She has been treated ugly by her younger sister and older brother. Her own parents (my grandparents) have always treated her differently, even though they would deny they have. I have seen it with my SIL and her daughter, the middle child. Now, on the other hand, the couple of middle children I have not seen it happen in was where the other children, one older and one younger, were opposite sex; she had two brothers. My mother had a sister and brother, my other family members also have sisters and brothers, but the ones with two siblings of the opposite sex than they, seemingly have no problems like this. A close friend had an older son, then a daughter, and then the youngest girl. The middle daughter began this behavior as well very early on. Since my girlfriend was a middle child, she quickly picked up on this and started spending time with this child alone and doing activities completely separate from the other siblings. She did tell me that if she were perfectly honest, she realized the oldest child probably did get more attention and then the second came along, probably not the same amount of attention, and then with the baby, of course, lavishing again because that child was the baby of the home. Being a middle child herself, she was very honest about this and knew what she felt like, so from early on, she spent a lot of time with this child, which may have seemed over doing it to the other siblings, but I have to say, it really changed things for the better for this child. She seemed to just blossom and the negative behavior just stopped. They took pictures of her by herself without other siblings around, movies alone with her, time cooking in the kitchen, just a lot of one-on-one time, and it really changed her for the better. I'm really sorry this is happening but I have to say, I've seen this happening over and over in my family and my friends. There is something to this middle-child thing. I think without even realizing it, parents are behaving differently toward the middle child; I can't put my finger on it but even I know we took tons of pictures of our first and as parents know, we tend to put the next child in everything together with the first, and sometimes their own identify gets lost in the shuffle.....you know?
My girlfriend did have a particular doctor who wrote books on this and she read a lot of the books, which she said made a lot of sense to her. She did not want her middle child to feel the way she did growing up and with the suggestions made, she did try them, and the return was great!! Maybe try this? I know you love this child just as much, but I'm certain the frustration you feel (and it sounds your son feels as well) is coming through. With his age, he just doesn't have the coping skills to know what is bothering him necessarily, so maybe a good book on this would help you.
How weird. I was just going to ask the same thing
I also have huge bags under my eye. I never paid too much attention until my daughter told me that I looked tired one day. Boy do they look awful. Cover make up doesn't even begin. I was hoping others would have some remedies to at least make them less puffy and dark. I may have to try Preparation H.
This story is so weird to me, I can only wonder...
I watched 'The View' today.
How did this man get pregnant? This is a puzzle to me.
And how come that his wife, who had an hysterectomy is BREASTFEEDING the baby?
How did her body produce milk?
Isn't it that one must be pregnant before producing milk? t is all a hormone thing.
This is all so weird to me, downright scary and I do not like it a bit.
It's all just to confusing and weird to me
I know it's a woman with man parts, but since he/she now looks like a man, it's just too strange. I was also wondering how the wife was breastfeeding.
That explains it somehow, but still weird..sm
What is a puzzle to me is how this man/woman got pregnant?
This is only possible if he/she has still the female organs and he/she is artificially inseminated.
They mentioned only 1 operation, the removal of her breasts.
It is also weird to me that Barbara Walters is so interested and fascinated by this story.
I used to admire her a lot, but lately not so much.
But for being over 70 she looks really still great, lately not so much, though.
The whole story is 'mocking' God, I do not like it at all.
They will tell the child: 'Your father had you! The poor child.
What a weird situation...sm
There is nothing wrong with you or your husband being friends with the mom. I think it was totally acceptable for you and your husband to go to the funeral because your husband knew this woman. Why wouldn't he go? It would be childish and immature to not go.
Also I think the relationship between the mother and you and your husband is not the brothers or the ex's business. The mother is free to be friends with whoever she wishes, and it is none of their business. It seems to me they need to get over it. I would continue being her friend and tell them to get a life.
This may sound a little weird
But I live in a really big city and I would put him in a retirement complex. That is a really good place for people with lots of money who don't feel like cooking for themselves or being alone. I hope you live in a big city too. Good Luck!
Weird twitching?
I have this weird twitching/slight spasm feeling in my upper abdomen, and I wondered if any of you have typed this or heard of it. It feels like a baby kicking. I wonder what in the world it is? Anyone know?
That end of craft is just WEIRD sm
Most of us who make them and/or collect them aren't like that! They can be outstanding works of art, but that is what they are...ART. They are not surrogate children.
I will say that they are a blast to dress and to look at. IT is fun because they will stay little AND their Carter's won't wear out. They are also a lot of fun and a lot of work to produce from the setting of eyelashes, to the microrooting of the hair to the properly blushing and veining of the skin. They can also look absolutely hideous! I have seen some really awful ones too.
You are right. That sort of love and attention should be given to a real child or to a pet, not a doll. I do them because I love dolls with a passion...to twiggle with or display. I collect all sorts of dolls and I am starting to rehabilitate old dolls as part of my reborning skills. I do change their clothing because I make a lot of doll clothing. I play with them as far as changing clothes for a new display goes, but they are artwork!!!!
Weird symptoms....sm
My sister-in-law went to the ER tonight. Her symptoms were numbness all over her body, nausea, dizziness, and shortness of breath. She started antibiotics Friday evening. These symptoms started tonight. I thought it may be the anitbiotics. Some kind of adverse reaction. She has a pilonidal cyst so they put her on Sulfa antibiotics. Well when she went to the ER they said they didn't believe it was antibiotics but a panic attack. She said she has never had a panic attack in her life. How weird. I just wonder if it could be the anitbiotics even with no rash. I would hate for it to be the anitbiotics and her keep taking it and get worse.
This sounds really weird, but s/m
meatballs slow-cooked in a crockpot or Dutch oven with sauce made with one large jar of grape jelly and one jar of chili sauce. Delicious!!
Isn't it weird how when you have an accent...sm
you don't know it until you get around other people who are not southern? People up north don't realize they have the northern accent until they come down here I guess.
What a weird post from the OP this was anyways!
Also her hint that she feels for this boy in a way she never felt for her husband!
Duh?
She should spend more time trying to seduce her husband than fantasizing about her daughter's boyfriend.
It msut really be very cold in her bedroom.
I pity her husband and he should do the same. fantasizing about 18-year-old girls.
What was she looking for in our answers?
Encouragement?
Condoning?
I, myself, I would never post such stuff on a public forum.
And the administrators and moderators know exactly who we are, they have our emails.
Are you trying to pick a fight with me?
Belligerent you are!
that's a really weird comment...nm
