Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

Yeah, and since most of the things I ever bought her were guns and knives it was important I was sure about that.

[FrogInABlender]

Heh, I can just see an arguement in your household! It'd be like the movie Mr. and Mrs. Smith ;o)

[JenB]

Heh, that is why we don’t argue.

I’m really quite hard to tick off... you have to insult homeschooling, geek hobbies, or mentally retarded people to do it.

[FrogInABlender]

{makes notes of Jen's flash points}

[TalonDJ]

Now that is just silly. I mean who leaves guns out in the shed like he did? But the rest of our house is pretty much like that, yeah.
If people come visit I tell them just to leave any knives, guns, or Plutonium they find and not mess with it. The Plutonium is tossed in there to make them sure I am joking, then, after they visit, to make them wonder if I was joking at all.

hehehe

[FrogInABlender]

... I mean who leaves guns out in the shed like he did?...

Of course not, any sane person would have them in a secret safe room behind the shelves in the library! ;o)

[JenB]

Or just around.... on desks, in cabinets, in the bathroom... we need to redeploy but we have enough for one in every room in the house...

[FrogInABlender]

...in the bathroom...

Dang woman! Nobody's gonna catch y'all with your pants down! LOL!

[Corin Stormhands]

It’s five o’clock somewhere.

Oh wait...that’s here...

[JenB]

Well, not in the bathroom at least... ok so we don’t have one in there. Just an AK magazine.

[FrogInABlender]

A mere technicality...

If the basement is mostly brown and green, using some yellow would be good, since that's roughly between the brown and green on the color wheel. Then you can use some red accents throughout since that's across the color wheel from the green. So you could paint the stools red, with yellow seats, or do yellow stools with red seats. You could do some red pillows or artwork with red and yellow in it. Here's a link to a color wheel that shows a lot of tints and shades so you can get an idea of what secondary or tertiary colors go together.

evenin’ everyone. I’m home and plumb tuckered out. The NewJob takes a lot of energy.

[darkangel82]

It’s ok, I avoid needles too. Hope you start feeling better.

evening Lil...

When we can, we’re gonna get propane gas logs for the fireplace.

We've been pondering a heating solution for the media and craft rooms in the basement. We'd used some strip electric heaters, but SirKit was always nervous because the kids would have blankets, jackets, etc. down there, and we didn't want one landing on the heater and causing a fire.

We decided to get a natural gas fireplace, that is rated to heat all the square footage, and we also bought a distribution kit that will move the heater air, through ductwork, to the adjoining room. That way you don't have to have it wilting hot in one room in order for it to travel to the next one.

[Lil'freeper]

Heya

[Corin Stormhands]

We don’t have natural gas in our neighborhood...well not the heating kind anyway. Thus the consideration of propane.

[LadyDoc]

I don't follow the threads, but did you guys post the link for the Battle of the Pellanor fields...in gingerbread and gummi bears? LINK

[Corin Stormhands]

Heh...somebody has too much time on their hands...
