Shoot the Breeze With the Cooler Crew - Peoplesforum Edition

I am glad to see Days of our Lives back on tv.

But I was wondering how many people complained that the 'soaps' were interupted by WAR! SOAPS withdrawls.

Is Victor still on that show? Him and (the old) John Black (new Roman - D.H.) were my favorite characters.

Yeah, Victor is still there. As far as Roman -I am pretty sure, yeah, he is still on the show too, a cop, he is in love with Victors X-wife-not much has changed.

OK- here is a good story for the world-

This is a very simplistic story, but a powerful

message.

The mouse looked through a crack in the wall to

see the farmer and his wife opening a package;

what food might it contain? He was aghast to

discover that it was a mousetrap!

Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed

the warning, There is a mouse trap in the house,

there is a mouse trap in the house.

The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her

head and said, Mr. Mouse,I can tell you this

is a grave concern to you, but it is of no

consequence to me; I cannot be bothered by it.

The mouse turned to the pig and told him,

There is a mousetrap in the house.

I am so very sorry Mr. Mouse, sympathized the

pig, but there is nothing I can do about it

but pray; be assured that you are in my prayers.

The mouse turned to the cow, who replied, Like

wow, Mr. Mouse, a mouse trap! Am I in grave

danger, Duh?

So the mouse returned to the house, head down

and dejected to face the farmers mouse trap

alone.

That very night a sound was heard throughout

the house, like the sound of a mouse trap

catching its prey. The farmers wife rushed

to see what was caught.

In the darkness, she did not see that it was

a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught.

The snake bit the farmers wife and the farmer

rushed her to the hospital.

She returned home with a fever. Now everyone

knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken

soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the

farmyard for the soups main ingredient.

His wifes sickness continued so that friends

and neighbors came to sit with her around the

clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the

pig.

The farmers wife did not get well, in fact,

she died, and so many people came for her

funeral the farmer had the cow slaughtered

to provide meat for all of them to eat.

So the next time you hear that someone is

facing a problem and think that it does not

concern you, remember that when the least of

us is in trouble, we are all at risk.

As far as Days goes, I think Victor is Jennifer Aniston's dad.

Yes he is.

I am going through the 2001 cooler and came across ths funny post...

Guess who? (Ares you can't guess cause you probly know)

Be kinda funny to tell em thats who I am on here! Me and Ian walkin in a park next year and meet up with someone,they ask "Your in the Cooler?" "Who are you?" Ian responds "I'm Joe Ho and this is dingdongdiddlyass."

hahahahahaha Clue Master---always misses it by 'this much' my friend...

post from January 31, 2001
I'm here and gone all in the same breath. I need to get down to the press to pick up that last clue. I know I'll just find it this year!!

actually i canguess because i don'tknow, but i could easily find out. so i won't play.

what woulda really been funny is if they'd responded that way and it really was dingdongdiddlyass they were talking to :)

hahahahahaha

David writes about the 2001 Como hunt...

And then there were all the clues that referred to things that didn't exist! Where Beulah lane used to run, trolley tracks that are long gone, and the underpass of a bridge that's no longer there? I think those were unfair clues.

which is funny cause now that I think back on them I like them---history

so I post to him...

boy, allisonwonderland, would I have a earfull for you. I really had a twist with ideas for all of these clues!!! we need to hook up at the bash. You would not beleive what these clues could have and should have meant!!

Those comments make me think of how much David and I know of eachother now :) and how I tear apart these clues and need an editor :)

and of course, this year the clues actually referred to things that didexist but were so obscure they might as well not have.

Clue Master---always misses it by 'this much'

What? The boat? If so, I definitely missed that a number of times ;-(
3 days of work left.

dingdongdiddlyass?

mornin' joe ho.

CSL Can't stop laughing!

ok-looking at changing internet connection...I currently have AOL.
I am looking at MSN, ATnT or is it Comcast? Peoplepc, earthlink. anyone like any of these? anyone have anyother ideas? I want to keep cost lower than AOL. prefer at least $20 a month or less.

I have dial up-

i know ian's posted it as a recommendation, and i know i've mentioned them to you, but these guysare about as cheap as it gets for dial-up.

Connect speeds up to
56K

Wow! Hold on to your pants. You get what you pay for I guess.

if you know of a faster dial-up connection speed, i'd love to hear about it :)

I would not change. I'm basically on 24/7

There are times it disconnects when I'm away from the computer, but it's set up to re-dial.

$110.00 a year pre-paid

My dad switched to http://www.goldengate.netlike last summer.. maybe even longer ago... I think we pay like 24.95 amonth.. might even be less, since we switched from some other comapny when they closed down. Its dial up... and it works for what we need it for.. plus.. its a local, twin cities company..... screw that big ass corporate crap.

If you want to keep any of your aol names, download/install AIM on your computer BEFORE you cancel AOL. Sign on with them. You may have to register, or return an e-mail. After you get your GBRonline account, start AIM and sign on with all names. Cancel AOL, and uninstall.

i know me2 already has aim on her computer, so that step shouldn't be a problem for her.

mornin' sam.

mornin' dingdongdiddlyass.

mornin' joe ho

I ain't Joe Ho. I ain't Joe Woman, Joe Momma..... I ain't nobody's Ho.

Well, Ho, Ho, Ho to you too!

merry christmas, me2.

Joe ho ho and a bottle of rum.

Joe ho-ho, a twinkie and a ding-dong?

dingdongdiddlyass

you leave my twinkie and ding-dong's out of this. next thing ya know they'll be up on the chandelier with my thong.

Is Ares dingdongdiddlyassing that frog?

"John Milton was a failure. In writing Paradise Lost, his aim was to "justify the ways of God to men." Inevitably, he fell short and wrote only a monumental poem. Beethoven, whose music was conceived to transcend fate, was a failure, as was Socrates, whose ambition was to make people happy by making them reasonable and just. The surest, noblest way to fail is to set one's standards titanically high. The flip side of that proposition also seems true. The surest way to succeed is to keep one's striving low. Many people, by external standards, will be "successes." They will own homes, eat in better restaurants, dress well and, in some instances, perform socially useful work. Yet fewer people are putting themselves on the line, making as much of their minds and talents as they might. Frequently, success is what people settle for when they can't think of something noble enough to be worth failing at." -Laurence Shames

I was thinking the exact same thing when I struck out in tee-ball when I was 6.

Don't write this down, but I find Milton probably as boring as you find Milton. Mrs. Milton found him boring too. He's a little bit long-winded, he doesn't translate very well into our generation, and his jokes are terrible.
[Bell rings, students rise to leave]
But that doesn't relieve you of your responsibility for this material. Now I'm waiting for reports from some of you. ...Listen, I'm not joking. This is my job!

You mean Milton Bradley?? Come on... dont diss the top-hat guy.... Monopoly kicks ass...

Intellectual conversation going on. Now for a commercial break...
Want to know how to stop that nagging itch? Go look in (Hidden Falls?) for Lil's puck, pull down your pants, and sit your ass in the snow...

Yeah right. You'll be up on the bluff taking pictures.

Want to know how to stop that nagging itch? Go look in (Hidden Falls?) for Lil's puck, pull down your pants, and sit your ass in the snow...

Speaking from experience?

And just which nagging itch were you referring to? hmmmmm?

Well at least I guess now we know why your buttox are frozen. :-P

This was a pretty fun show. I highly recommend it to any fellow baby-boomer out there.
