Hi Sidekickcat, Cathy got married??? To Irving? Our paper discontinued it before that but replaced it with Baby Blues which is very funny. (my what an "off tangent" this has taken!) Our paper tried one "edgy" comic but the public wrote too many letters, so we have "Peanuts Classics" now in its place. Still have Marmaduke and Family Circle and Dennis the Menace, too. Can't figure out why they keep Mary Worth and Rex Morgan MD, though (no offense to those who like those two) 14 mice?? Wow, no wonder they ate so much! Tell Hubby to keep checking that trap line! Liz

Somebody give her a cheeseburger!!!!!! Liz

Hi Sceeter! I was wondering the same thing. It was very quiet around here Tuesday night! Must be spring fever or the Eastersugarbuzz letdown. Macmarauder, stop that!!! You'll haunt my idiot box and break it!!! (he's obviously still mixing candy and nitrous oxide...) Liz

Hi Sidekickcat, So, what's the rodent count up to? I read my hubby your post. I think if we were neighbors, they would be Dagwood and Herb! (Hope you get Blondie comics there!) Liz

From one old poop to another, Happy Birthday!!! Liz

I heard Tom Green was supposed to be on Tonight's AOTS but missed it (must be my warped sense of humor, I liked the Tom Green show....). Looked on the forums to see what Tom's antics were and apparently HE somewhat behaved himself but....oh my....Won't be tuning in for the rerun. You'll have to look at the forums for yourselves if you want to know what happened. Please do not watch the rerun if you have children about. **And to the teens here--if you're curious, read the forums first, then decide if your parents would approve before watching the reruns. How would one of your parents reac

Hi all, Well, I don't need coffee, still on an Easter sugarbuzz or sunlight, but coming to visit anyways. It reached 50 degrees today! Yea!!! (my spring tantrum is on page 2, I'll let it stay there) I depooped the half of the backyard that isn't still snowcovered (how can a 50 pound dog fill a plastic grocery bag? Perhaps because it has been snowing since October?), raked up a garbage bag full pinecones (easier to do when the ground is still frozen) and did it without my winter coat! It felt WONDERFUL! 50 Degrees and these idiots in Michigan are out in shirtsleeves.... The snowdrops an

Hi MistaMatt90, Nice article, nice tribute, thanks. Anyone watch the new show? According to G4Forums, it is basically a variety show and Sarah said something naughty--thats all I could glean from the immature comments on AOTS board before I said, "bah" and came here . Liz

Hi all, (listen up, Dan6996 ) Just to let you know we found the reverse gear in this idiotbox!! Son backed up all the music files today--took 25 CD's in MP3 format--choke! Didn't know 2 kids could collect that much, glad I bought 100! Very painless (especially since Son did it--he knows how to use the CDburner, so I don't NEED to know! ) and maybe took a couple of hours. Plan on backing up Windows Updates, Favorites or Microsoft Word Stuff tomorrow--at least one item a day until its all done. Both kids have Gmail and Hotmail accounts (the "big ones") and I thought of just sending their Wor

Sidekickcat, you had to give Macmarauder ammo (The Star Trek meal replicators), didn't you? I can hear him banging around in that basement now!! Liz

Oooh, I forgot Johnny Cash--ok, I hate country but love Johnny Cash (I hear that train a-comin') Liz

Wishing all a blessed, safe and happy Easter!! "He is not here. He is Risen." Liz

Hi MistaMatt90, Well, now you know the kids can never watch a LOTR DVD with me home now...that was hilarious, especially #8. Copy, paste, email! Thanks, Liz

Hi MistaMatt90, I would have loved to see Richard Simmons take that donut away, he's hilarious! Hi Flashh4, Wow!!! and by the way, HAPPY RETIREMENT!!! Liz

Me thinks you 3 guys have had waaaaay too much Easter Candy!!!! Liz

Confession time--I'm 47 years old but love "alternative music", so I'm an embarassment to my kids but a hero to their friends--Pearl Jam, Beck, U2, Velvet Underground, Greenday, etc. Not the "screaming stuff", though. Always hated country. Liz

Hi Sidekickcat, I read this to my husband (he came into the room to see why I was laughing so hard) and he didn't react too well, either. The nerve!! He said, "what, are you afraid they'll come into the bedroom and gnaw on your face or something?" I answered, "Hey I SAW those rat movies in the 70's, so.... yeah!" Sounds like a good idea to me, too. They just don't get it. Liz

Hi Robroy, Are Rocknrollers nice? My sister was soooo excited to meet Carlos Santana (her hubby did some guitar work for him and brought her along) and the names she called him afterwards--well, I don't say, so I KNOW I can't say them here.....guess he was really rude to her. Liz

Hi Sidekickcat, The Mouse Candy I get might work for you "under the right conditions" It's called Talon-G and available only at Exterminator Office/stores. What it does is makes the mice really thirsty and they are supposed to go outside to find a water source and die outside from overhydration. And supposably, if they can't find a way outside and die in the wall, they are so dehydrated that they "dry out too quickly to smell". The "condition" part is NOT having ANY water supply in your house to force the critters outside to drink. Your "condition" is that cats and mice are noctural, so

I say calackalate!!! Math (which I am so horrible at)

Waaaay back before most of you were born, I got to know John Getz, then the US Ambassador of Malta (....Malta???) and his fledgling actor son, also John Getz, who went on to "Another World" later "B" and Lifetime,etc movies (ok, so he wasn't that talented....still a kick to see him on the screen). Riches beyond my imagination, but the nicest, down to earth folks one would ever want to meet!! I'm related to a bunch of famous people, though, John Alden (think Miles Standish + Prisilla love triangle story from the Mayflower), in fact they named their firstborn "Elizabeth with no middle name" an

Hi LJM, Your reply sent me to Google and my Internet Explorer for Dummies book to translate, but because of your reply, I discovered the Restricted Sites box--I got a new toy to play with!!! So far those two nasties are hopefully living there (hmmmm, maybe add a few online games son is addicted to?? sooo tempting, sooo tempting...) Thank you very much, Liz

Ok, not to be redundant, just seeing if this works.. Liz's Lighthouse Link Yep, I think it did!! Thanks tictoc5150 and handplane! Liz

restoring 140 year old house (dining room ceiling next----aughh, its going to be messy! Have to remove 12 inch acoustical tiles first and its right in the MIDDLE of the house.) Pool or Beach?
