there are 9 brownies, if i at least can get 9 christmas trees done, they can be working on those while i put the other moms to work punching holes in the rest of the designs. we are going to do this over several meetings. one each would be plenty, but we are taking them to the nursing home, so they have to do a few each.

I heard that it was not possible to restrain you from Dick.

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[xsmommy]

don't be overly solicitious of the johnny-come-lately bellyacher that comes to class ONCE in a blue moon!

[xsmommy]

harrumph to both of you. i wasn't even going to deign to answer mr vast, but since you became overly hysterical i thought it best to put you BOTH in your place!

[hobbes1]

Can't you put four layers together and then punch the holes?

Good point Slip.

Well xs, what about it ? Would it be better if your felt hole was punched harder and deeper?

[hobbes1]

i wasn't even going to deign to answer mr vast, but since you became overly hysterical i thought it best to put you BOTH in your place!

One in front, one in back ?

[xsmommy]

Ruffles, like Homeland Security, have Ridges.

[VRWCmember]

You can't tee one up for us like that and then expect nobody to step up and take a swing at it can you?

[xsmommy]

you looking to be killed also??

[xsmommy]

it was a test to see who the MATURE ONES are in the class..... you and hobbes fail! ; )

[Robert A Cook PE]

OK, i am choking on that sentence....!

Arghie - Arghie.

Wood "I" (Sweet, innocent lil ole me?) be the one to point out the juxaposition of xsex gettin' all choked about the idea of Dick orally presenting himself at CPAC?

[VRWCmember]

Methinks the lady doth protest too much. If we ignored such an invitation to witty repartee you would think we no longer loved you.

[hobbes1]

slapping is too good for you, you need killing.

Don't worry, I am killing myself...LOL

[Eala]

She missed mine at 58 too. Maybe if I blow a little harder. (It's such a great sound when they go out of tune... *\;-)

[hobbes1]

it was a test to see who the MATURE ONES are

Yes. You are mature. I am sure Vast and I are not quite ready for the AARP recruitment drive yet.

[VRWCmember]

Thanks doc. Another target is a welcome addition at this point.

[xsmommy]

[hobbes1]
