FYI - I'd rather go to a TASER PARTY than a Tupperware Party any day, lol 

You gave me my giggle for the day!!!
How about Pampered Chef? I LOVE Pampered Chef parties, great products and they feed you!!! Some of my best recipes have come from Pampered Chef parties believe it or not!!!

I love Pampered Chef.  I haven't been to a party in years but I have a spatula from a party about 16 years ago and it's still doing it's thing.  Looks like new.  You get what you pay for.  All their stuff is great.  I love my square baking stone.  Great for cookies.  Are you a distributor?

I'm a 56 yo male and love to cook. About 3 years ago we went to a Pampered Chef party. I went along hoping to visit with my buddy, but he wasn't there. Most of the ladies I knew and they invited me to join in. Long story short, I won the first 6 prizes for correctly answering the hosts cooking questions. And da bitches threw me out. We still laugh about it at other get togethers.

LIVING IN 2008 

 You know YOU ARE LIVING IN 2008 when...
 1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.
 2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.
 3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.
 4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.
 5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they
 don't have e-mail addresses.
 6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone
 is home to help you carry in the groceries.
  7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.
 8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the
 first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you
 turn around to go and get it.
 10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.
 11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile.
 : )
 12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.
 13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.
 14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.
 15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this
 list .
 AND NOW U R LAUGHING at yourself.

Don't even need to  be reminded of it right now.  I had to snow blow twice yesterday and our temperature is well below zero.  We have wind chills between -25 and - 35 with predictions it will get colder by tomorrow morning.  We will all welcome the NY Giants to town as this is where they will stay for the big game on Sunday. 

Those players have heated benches and huge blowers on the sidelines.  We poor fans sitting on those metal benches covered with ice are the ones who really show what team spirit is about.

I took some photos of my back yard again yesterday.  It is really a beautiful snow, but it does get old after six months.

LOL...*******...the one I feel most stupid doing, but do all the time.....call my DH on his cell when I can't find him in a store......which happens all the time!


Please light a candle and say a prayer for Clinton, Carolyn and her family,TES and all the volunteers this weekend.

Looking forward to the game....just hope those Giants aren't too beat up and can make it a good one! I have a soft spot for the Packers this year, though usually go AFC.

Police: Victim drunk during tiger attack
41 minutes ago
 


One of the three victims of San Francisco Zoo tiger attack was intoxicated and admitted to yelling and waving at the animal while standing atop the railing of the big cat enclosure, police said in court documents filed Thursday.

Paul Dhaliwal, 19, told the father of Carlos Sousa Jr., 17, who was killed, that the three yelled and waved at the tiger but insisted they never threw anything into its pen to provoke the cat, according to a search warrant affidavit obtained by the San Francisco Chronicle.

"As a result of this investigation, (police believe) that the tiger may have been taunted/agitated by its eventual victims," according to Inspector Valerie Matthews, who prepared the affidavit. Police believe that "this factor contributed to the tiger escaping from its enclosure and attacking its victims," she said.

Sousa's father, Carlos Sousa Sr., said Dhaliwal told him the three stood on a 3-foot-tall metal railing a few feet from the edge of the tiger moat. "When they got down they heard a noise in the bushes, and the tiger was jumping out of the bushes on him (Paul Dhaliwal)," the documents said.

Police found a partial shoe print that matched Paul Dhaliwal's on top of the railing, Matthews said in the documents.

The papers said Paul Dhaliwal told Sousa that no one was dangling his legs over the enclosure. Authorities believe the tiger leaped or climbed out of the enclosure, which had a wall 4 feet shorter than the recommended minimum.

The affidavit also cites multiple reports of a group of young men taunting animals at the zoo, the Chronicle reported.

Mark Geragos, an attorney for the Dhaliwal brothers, did not immediately return a call late Thursday by The Associated Press for comment. He has repeatedly said they did not taunt the tiger.

Calls to Sousa and Michael Cardoza, an attorney for the Sousa family, also weren't returned.

Toxicology results for Dhaliwal showed that his blood alcohol level was 0.16 — twice the legal limit for driving, according to the affidavit. His 24-year-old brother, Kulbir, and Sousa also had alcohol in their blood but within the legal limit, Matthews wrote.

All three also had marijuana in their systems, Matthews said. Kulbir Dhaliwal told police that the three had smoked pot and each had "a couple shots of vodka" before leaving San Jose for the zoo on Christmas Day, the affidavit said.

Police found a small amount of marijuana in Kulbir Dhaliwal's 2002 BMW, which the victims rode to the zoo, as well as a partially filled bottle of vodka, according to court documents.

Investigators also recovered messages and images from the cell phones, but apparently nothing incriminating in connection with the tiger attack, the Chronicle reported.

Zoo spokesman Sam Singer said he had not seen the documents but believed the victims did taunt the animal, even though they claim they hadn't.

"Those brothers painted a completely different picture to the public and the press," Singer said. "Now it's starting to come out that what they said is not true."

Hi MUM! There's another one in the Lounge, but I wasn't entirely happy with it, so maybe you'd like this Valentine's Day?

I had snow as well, Great Owl....................not as much as you did, but it was pretty. Today it's melting off and looks awful. Streaky patches and mud don't make for a winter wonderland! 
Do you really have 6 months of snow? I can't remember..............where is home for you?

You should post the pictures!
