Lively Case Discussion #585 2/25 - 3/2/2007

[BTgirl]

I was just looking at the most recent schedule that Klaas has posted in the prayer chain thread. Unless someone has recently taken them, the 2:00 - 2:30 and 2:30 - 3:00 slots are still open.

If someone could take those, we'd have the prayer going on for the whole 24 hours with no break.  

[Kat_Gram]

I can do 2:00 eastern = 1 central on the prayer chain. I stuck my camera out the door. This is what I see.
Bummer. I love this country for alot of reasons, but this much sno on March 1 is not one of them.
If I ever see the sun again,  I will take a pix and post.
I am cooking a turkey dinner for those nearest and dearest of mine that did have to go out today. I like to do that, so maybe that will cheer up.  
Swim, sauna, yakking. Eat chocolate brownies, ice cream, rasperry sauce.

Those of you commenting on the Diario article I posted (especially the "Stupid American" part) - I don't know WHO is saying that.

I infer that the story is about an American expat who is living there, a tourist, a "woman of color," and that something may have been stolen.

But I hope we can find out who made the comment, and what the story  is about generally.

I may here just in time....lol


IF THE WOMAN WAS MISSING SHAMPOO, TOOTHPASTE, AND WINE.....

( Then I  think I know who did it...lol )
THE ARUBANS REALLY ARE GETTING DESPERATE!!!!!!!!




MRS.  RED hope this gives u a giggle!

Today's Prayer Chain - the only remaining slots are:

2:00 - 2:30
2:30 - 3:00
4:30 - 5:00
5:30 - 6:00

The thread is in the lounge; klaas has it in her sig line. I'll bet there are four monkeys out there who can cover these times.

I will take 4:30 to 5 if no one minds if i pray while i am naked getting oil rubbed all over my body......

hell, I'll pray anyway...but put me in if u want

If anything I can pray for my masseuse to turn into a young hot stud

[Kat_Gram]

FOM I think you are to pray, not for things for yourself.

This is all a “lugubrious game” to them. They were all at the party and all of them are turning their heads. One of them needs to be pinched.

Kat-Gram:  I feel for you because I hate the long cold winter also, but this year has been amazingly warm and sunny.  It is 52 degrees in the bright sunshine and, what little snow we had this year,  is melting.  This would be normal for April 1st not March 1st.

Continuing with weather topics -

The National Weather Advisory has issued a tornado watch today until 9:00 pm for many counties in Georgia. The watch includes the city of Atlanta and Cobb, Decatur, DeKalb, Fulton, Gwinnett, Rockdale, Cherokee, Forsyth and other metro Atlanta counties.

The newspaper says that heavy rain is expected around drive-home time (3:00 - 8:00 pm) with straight-line winds of 70 mph.

(Anything can happen here in March - snow, ice, tornado, hail, and even spring!)

Forecast for tomorrow and through the weekend is good.

[Kat_Gram]

This is unusual for here. What happens we go from Winter to Summer all in one day.
PPl are sick, colds, flu, etc.
Always try to find a way to cheer up. Bought some Hyancinths that are blooming and a Begonia that was blooming.
Sometimes, we all check into a hotel with waterslides and spas. No cookin' no dishes, just Fun 24/7. But the others are too sick ( are on the mend ) right now.  Pneumonia is going around. Not me . Been lucky so far , but at the first sign of it will crawl to the clinic for DRUGS.

Hey Monkeys.....what's happening in here today?

[mishy]

Hey guys,

I'm at home as our office has closed. All the school systems shut down earlier...so we're expecting several twisters and people are getting a little antsy...It is headed south of Birmingham in a little place called Clanton, within the hour...

[crazybabyborg]

You stay safe, Mishy!!!!

I haven't checked the storm track. Is it supposed to head my way?

Good thing they let you get home early Mishy . We are expecting snow/sleet/ice any time now. Winter storm warning in effect.

Does anyone know what happened to the 2 boys on the front page of Diario? How were they killed?

I can do a prayer chain time....what time is needed?

It was a horrible car accident.  The driver of the car they were in was trying to pass another vehicle.  Very sad.

Thanks monkeys and please stay safe everyone. I don't know if it's headed CBBs way...I really need to check the tv!!

But I just wanted to respond to one of Kat_Gram's posts in the prayer chain thread:

I was reading all the paryers and thinking of what a great group of people are here.There have been things that have divided us, but the things that unite us are stronger. I am grateful to have met this group of people who share the values that I do.
I am going back to the candle site to think and pray.

I wanted to know:
any particular group, Kat? I was just scrolling through the groups and saw one called "Nat" and stopped and lit a candle there...recognized at least one name...

Hi, Monkeys,
Just stopping by to see if most Monkeys in Alabama know the schools are closing and to pick up children, etc.  Not so sure how I feel about this as the weather was predicted this morning and could have cancelled then as some did.  I hope this doesn't put lots of kids home alone for this bad weather.

Right now the Northwestern  and Southeastern corners of the state are being pounded as is the Tuscaloosa area, heading into B'ham.  

Be safe, monkeys!  Klaas, you will have many sign off as there is tremendous amount of lightening connected to some of these storms.  Good news is they are moving fast so maybe they will move from the area quickly.  Bad news is they are heading toward others!

Take care!

Anna

Oh how terrible. It was certainly a large memorial service for the boys. I feel very sorry for their families. I saw their obituaries, very handsome kids.  

[bleachedblack]

Things feel kinda sad and quiet in here today............

[bleachedblack]

Maybe this will make you smile......think of this as a flight  home from Aruba!
