Hey Spindlette!!

“Boo is my 7 year old. Baby-O is 5.

Thanks Roam. He's taking the 'puter away again now. :)”

“your welcome!

:)

my pleasure - Baby O and I have the same taste in cartoons!”

“Cool!

Did you name him Otis for Otis Redding?”

“No.”

“Sisters and the Cure? If he gets ahold of any Bauhaus it's over.

Puberty will show you who is cheerful and who is not . . . the early indications are not in Baby-O's favor. You might as well start dressing him all in black and break out the Manic Panic now. I've got some boots I'm sure he'll grow into :-)”

“anybody that sings the Scooby Doo song is automatically cheerful, and that kid sings the Scooby Doo song!”

“In my considerable personal experience Robert Smith, Andrew Eldritch and Peter Murphy have a much greater hold on the mind than Scooby Doo.

Baby-O would look cute with spiky black hair, plastic pants, nipple rings and big black boots.”

“I am not ready. Especially not if Baby-O evolves into a Perky Goth. (Don't make Mommy break out the Plath!!)

It'll be a wait and see but Boo is way more angsty.

I'm just praying not to be deluged with Top 40. *cringe*”

“mine went thru the top 40 phase - briefly - the boy now looks back on that time in his life and just shakes his head wondering "what was I thinking!!" The girl was way more brief and much more receptive to good punk music.”

“Thank goodness his town doesn't have recycling laws yet or he would have had to sort through it.

spindlette

My town does, and whilst the bag of garbage I took home wasn't as big as Gigundo, it was big enough for the neighbors to stop, stare, and mutter WTF? The things I do to entertain the peeps in my hood.

If the nalgene is blue lexan, it's probably ENS's. I've had it for months and brought it for him to finally take home, but I bet he forgot.

The spork may be mine. Perhaps I can retreive it on the "Welcome MsDoolittle to Colorado" trip.

The Gigundo garbage bag is mine. I'll want that back.”

“"...anybody that sings the Scooby Doo song is automatically cheerful, and that kid sings the Scooby Doo song!"

Aw, dat's so cute!

But who will teach the children about Bo Diddley?

Turn them boys on to some Ray Charles....

"See the girl with the red dress on
She can Birdland all night long
Hey.........hey
All.........right"”

“The nalgene is in fact blue and lexan - with the logo of a particular retailer emblazoned on the side. The proper owner will need to name that retailer to have any hope of retrieval. In addition, the foul smelling liquid that was inside incurs the owner a party foul penalty of at least a six pack of good CO microbrew.

Talk to Calmwater about the gigundo bag, not sure he'll still have it, but good luck.

You comin out here next month for Ms D's welcome trip?

“The Doors and the Cure for 5 and 7 year olds? Good lordy Spindle, I know you live in Martin's Creek, but are your kids DRINKING from Martin's creek? ;o)

btw Spindle - congrats on your "Hey" thread. Another 750 or so posts and you'll catch up to the Hey Pennsy thread. ;o)”

“Really!

5 & 7 year olds should be learning to groove to stuff like Manic Depression from Jimi.

Are You Experienced?

Third Stone From The Sun is a highly groovable tune as well.”

“Yep Roamy, that's ENS's. It was full of Redwood Creek pinot noire that EzPace and myself inhaled. I imagine by now it must a tad funky.

Is there really a MsD welcome trip posted? I was kind of kidding but I'll have to take a looksee.”

not posted yet - we havn't 'officially' named a date. mid december - and we're also planning a new years eve weekend trip - the 28th - the First!”

“I have a blue wide-mouth Nalgene that belongs to Phantom Soul from the Connecticut AT trip two years ago.”

“Hey, how many people are going to be on this "Welcome Ms Doolittle to Colorado" trip??

And thank the Goddess I won't be the only one sucking air if Pennsy's coming out! Yay!!

The spork may be mine. Perhaps I can retreive it on the "Welcome MsDoolittle to Colorado" trip. ~ the Pennsinator

Pennsy, really? You coming to CO?? :D”

“And thank the Goddess I won't be the only one sucking air if Pennsy's coming out! Yay!!

Hey, I resemble that remark!
I'll have you know that I have been on Colorado's highest, Mt Ebert, and would have been on top of Mt Massive if a certain unmentioned tour guide hadn't blurted "Snowhoes?? We don't need no stinkin snowshoes!!"

but yes.... there was some sucking of the air.

Seriously, I'd love to return to Colorado. The beauty there is astounding, but I really hate flying. But I've flown twice this year and that's a record for me, so who knows.

“Oooo, you should come out! New Year's.... You don't have anything happening, right? You could list that as flying once in 2008 if you really don't want to face flying 3 times in 2007. ;)

I'm just sayin'. :D”

Pennsy

I should hope not. No child of MINE would ever forget to filter! ;) (I'd wager those creepy little Barney-tune singing rug monkeys down the street drink from the 'crick, huh?)

Thanks. Sunny wants her clothes back. ;) I'd never presume to hope to catch up to you. I am not worthy. ;]”

“Hey Spindle, I just noticed on the "Bag night" thread that I have mail. I doubt I ever updated my profile from the other site, so that e-mail addy is no longer active. What's up girly?

“I thought as much. It's nothing pressing. :)

Last weekend I took Baby-O out for an overnight down around Rauch Gap. I was just pinging you to see if you were up for taking your little guy out too. It's an easy enough hike in for the wee ones.

Did you get that pole replaced yet?”

“"Did you get that pole replaced yet?"
Spindlette

With what, a czech?”

“No. A Romanian.”

“There's this red-haired Scottish woman..................”

“That's my Great Aunt.

I wouldn't mess with her if you value your hide.”

“Is her name Tanya Hyde?”

“No, Meadhbh.

Yes, this is pronunciation quiz. ;)”

“You ought to see the Irish spelling of my name.

>8^O”

“You can't scare me. I'm out of an O' family.

Didn't drop in in the ocean either, nosiree. ;)

We should go drinking. Ditch work next Friday. ;)”

“Eo'ghain or something like that......

Say..................I suspect that "Baby O" carries a very similar name to my surname.

>8^]

Drinkin'??
It's in the blood!”

“Yes he does.

We are Ó Súilleabháin. Beare, not Mor, those miscreant infidels. ;)

In the blood. Safest place for drink to be, really.”

“None of that "prot" whiskey for me, thankie!”

“Whiskey knows no politics.”

“It ain't politics, Footie.

Tis ethnic persecution.

But, I'll drink with any of 'em that'll have me and let bygones be.”

“Whiskey knows no ethnic persecution;)”

“Whiskey is the ultimate equalizer.

As long as gravity isn't involved.”

“.......or momentum.”

“Whiskey would take the edge off of this day. :p It takes the edge off of everything. :D”

“That Knob Creek stuff you brought to Masten took off the top of my head, Ms D.”

“:D

Good stuff, no?”

“Dang boys. Always after a girls bourbon.”

“Really, though, I'd rather drink a little beer and some a little whatever.”

“There was no drinking a little of anything at Masten.

Calmwater may still be sleeping it off.”

“That beard must be down to his waist by now.


Rip Van Calmwater?

“dunno

He may have been sucked back into the vortex of weirdness that is California.”

“The dude is from California??

I like California.”

“Hmmm... haven't heard from that one.

Nah, I don't think he'd go back to Cali. If anything, he's back on the AT. :p”
