- Feel free to just rant about anything and I'll get back to you and seriously why wouldn't you.
- On this page everything is happening in the posts...so look down.
Okay, so here's a summary of what's happened;
- Bert got first post. :?)
- Geek said: Amber not Heather, what's the prob.
- I said: Don't ask me, sounds like the people you're around are smokin' a little bit of daffy tabaccy and losin' that short term memory.
- Jim made a comment about Rosie's much debated religeous page...or should I say "worst movies ever seen".
- Rosie called Jim a "patootie of cuteness".
- Bert pointing out the fact that my attempts to coral the conflab of useless trivia was all for naught.
- I have to agree and so this page goes to the mysterious land of archive.
- Rosie said loud children can get what they want, or so says D.Trump.
- I said...well you'll have to see now won't you.
- That's all folks!!! :?)
I love getting first post. Anybody want to make something of it?
You're tops Bert, literally. (snicker snicker)
T'ho
:?)
people always think my name is heather!
what gives? do i look like a heather? are they just confusing one slutty-ish pornstar-ish name with another?
amber sounds nothing like heather!
A friend once gave me sage advice:
"Don't eat at McDonald's." :?)
But he also said, and I quote "if they can't remember your name...then they're idiots."
Interesting facts:
Heather is an extensive tract of uncultivated open land covered with herbage and low shrubs; a moor.
Amber is a hard translucent yellow, orange, or brownish-yellow fossil resin, used for making jewelry and other ornamental objects.
Selfishness is characterized as concerned chiefly or only with oneself. ie. Not interested in anything outside their experience...names, faces, people.
There are more porn stars named heather (about 7 [thanks yahoo]) than Amber [only 2] and there is a porn star named "Andy Wang" (thanks again yahoo).
If you said Amber pronounced as "Heath-amber" one could possibly get confused and mistake it for "Heather". :?)
Don't worry when you're older...people will be just as annoying as they are now. Yipee. :?)
T'ho
:?)
I thought we already had a page for that?
(just kidding, just kidding!)
Ha! I swear I was trying to talk about a movie. Scout's honor. :?)
T'ho
:?)
You're a cutie patootie.
Now you're going to go and make me blush. Totally unfair. :-)
Pettifoggery is wild, man - it can't be tamed. You can't expect it to meekly come where no niggle has come before. [Best Homer Simpson voice]: D'oh! Stoopid.....page!
According to The Corporation , toy manufacturers deliberately and aggressively target highly manipulative advertising directly to children, because they have found that 40% of parents will buy something for their child in order to silence their nagging .
Which is where a little adult ingenuity and perhaps a well placed earplug or two can work wonders. :?)
:?)
My Mom had one of those harness thingies for my baby sister. I don't know if I was ever in one, but if I was, that would explain my affinity for prison movies.
Ha!
I think this is idea not yet fully explored as a resource for parents. While at the supermarket I generally pass at least 5 kids rampaging the aisles without a parent in sight. Then the parent catches up to them and starts balling them out. And I may be getting off subject but when training dogs it is a truism that you should always lavish your dog with praise when they return to you or come within your reach as to teach them not to run away. Not that I'm comparing dogs to people (although a certain argument could be made) but I would think it much the same. In effect yelling at them is reinforcing the fact that you want your kids to be out of your sight, because when you see them, you're angry. It is also helpful to carry dog-treats to: get your dog to be quiet, focus attention on you, and treat them for good behaviour. I'm thinking the same thing would work for toddlers.
T'ho
:?)
Training children, especially before they are verbal, is very similar to training dogs. They say that a dog can have the same size vocabulary as a 3-year-old human child.
Finally some proof to show my dog that he's only as smart as a 3 year old. (smile)
With that kind of information available it's a wonder anyone has kids at all. They could adopt a Bassett Hound, dress him up and send him to school every day. :?)
Kidding of course...or am I?
BTW, Brandy (my other dog) has quite the vocabulary, he goes on for about 10 minutes never making the same sound twice. It's kinda spooky. He's probably trying to convey the meaning of the universe and me being a dumb human I just can't understand. Sad really.
:?)
My dog is mute.
Strangely enough, my dogs name is Brandy too. Here he is asking me if he can eat the camera that I've suddenly stuck in his face. Rescued from a junk yard when he was about 6 months old, he'd had time to develop a personality. Not mean, just cranky. I could identify.
What a beautiful dog. He certainly has a grumpy look to him...but you know what they say about dogs looking like their owners. :?)
My brandy shows similar qualities in this photo. Though his grump factor is variably slim.
T'ho
:?)
They're both gorgeous dogs!! My dog doesn't photograph well. She's black, so she looks like a solid black blob in photos.
Ah, but as there is much trivia, there so stands the every mighty bicker. Good word BTW. Would that mean I'm a wannabe pettifogger wrangler...You're probably right. :?)
T'ho
:?)
Wasn't Pettifog the guy who went 'round the world in almost three months?
Nah! That was Finnicky Fogg, the 80-day wander.
Ha!
