Ymo - I'm so sorry to hear this and completely relate to losing a furry family member. When my cat-girl died (18 yrs old) a friend sent me this and it was such a lovely, helpful thought. Sending hugs your way. Sheree Rainbow Bridge Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an a...

Other than that, he doesn't annoy me. He has a soothing voice.

I thought it was a toupe... (pronounce toop in our house, as in there goes a bad toop)
but for the record, I like him.

Hearts and Flowers to all CTNers!

I don't know if they ever showed it on tv, but the guy in front of the grad student section by the bench who holds up the whiteboard with cheers, jeers, etc. had a great one today. It said: Fear the Zoubek!

2 inches on our deck here near downtown Raleigh and coming down pretty hard. It's begun to stick on the street.

I curse them at every available opportunity...

ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sending tons of positive vibes to LT! Heal quickly

light snow and sleet here close to downtown Raleigh

something Alfred Hitchcock? I seem to remember that he was obsessed with getting a toilet scene in just to beat the censors. Um, and my old brain is having a hard time coming up with... Psycho?

That's cool about the snow smell. I can usually tell if it will snow vs. rain depending on how the air smells. Chris, Holy shit! Me too! I thought I was the only one! It really is awesome. -EarlJam Me 4. I love the smell of imminent snow. Me 5. Alas, it only smells like rain this morning...

Happy Belated Birthday - I think you should keep celebrating!

Happy, Happy, Happy Day to you! I hope it's the most marvelous day for you - make everybody treat you like a Queen!

Oh no - I just had a (bad) thought. Since our b'ball game is on CBS, Greg Fishel will probably be interrupting the game every 5 minutes for a weather update - or WORSE, decide that weather coverage is more important than the game. EEK!!

we've got about 3 inches here close to downtown Raleigh. The sleet was coming down hard until about 15 minutes ago. Now it's a mix of sleet and snow.

Awesome, Ozzie! Let the spoiling begin!

oooohhhhhh - how exciting! sending all sorts of positive vibes!

Best of luck to you! Sending tons of vibes! The advice about looking at more than one house is good because I bet there ARE plenty to choose from on a short sale.

Big thunder-boomers in Raleigh...

Here's your good news shereec :D Apparently they think Bill will be fine. He has internal bleeding, a disc problem, broken ribs, and an abrasion on his liver. He's in an immense amount of pain, but he will survive. Sadly, the family from Raleigh has "claimed" him so he won't be coming to New Bern. ...

Sending thoughts and prayers specifically for your friend and for all those in need from this terrible catastrophe. It's overwhelming to think about the suffering and pain. I hope we hear good news from you soon, Rolvix. In the meantime, hugs to you as you wait.
