I wish there was a flesh-feasting-dog smilie :fleshfeastdog:

The boys must be so f***ing sick of this sh*t (I know I am, so I can't imagine what they must feel). As lovely as they are, it still must wear them down a bit each time this happens. Can we possibly find this dude and let the dog across the street feast on his flesh? And to make it even better we can sing Yellow/Trouble/Clocks while the doggie gnaws at skull. nom nom nom Sorry, that's probably a little too graphic.

Would it be easier to hire a piano mover? When I got my clp270 piano about a year ago, the piano movers from the store delievered it, and it was one of the most efficient things I've ever witnessed. They were nice and neat and had everything done in 5 minutes. Seriously.

Excellent! I can tell you're excited. Yeah... pose for a picture = snatch it for your girlfriend. :sneaky: Just kidding, I know you wouldn't actually do that (I think).

I would be in heaven even if it were 60 here! Of course, there might be some flash flooding since all the snow would melt, but other than that, it would be wonderful. Perfect softball weather.

70 degrees = cold? :thinking: I'm guessing you're somewhere in the south.

Even a very small amount is wonderful if you can do it. That was the quickest checkout for donating/purchasing I think I've ever used. EVER.

There's a decent amount of snow on the ground, although it hasn't snowed for a couple of days. But, apparently there's enough snow out there for the village police department to leave a notice on our front door yesterday indicating that since we "failed to remove snow from (our) sidewalk within 24 hours of snowfall", they could sue us within 5 days. :freak: Needless to say, we shoveled our sidewalk last night.

Okay you convinced me, I just put it in my siggy. Not very big, but a little snarky.

^ :laugh3: Well, then tell the boys they need to give me my money back for the album's sheet music book.

Hmmm, maybe I'll just change my avatar for a few days...

And I really love TexasluvsJonny's, with the 'mine mine' Finding Nemo seagulls. Adorable!

I like how people are marking their territory/winnings in the siggys! I kind of made one last week, but I've been debating posting it because what I made is a little snarky...

Okie dokie, here goes, from the official sheet music: Ah, sleep, I need. Sleep satisfies. Sleep satisfies. Ah, sleep, I need. Sleep satisfies. Sleep satisfies. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep satisfies. Sleep satisfies. Fall asleep. Fall asleep. Sleep mystifies. Sleep mystifies. Fall asleep. Fall asleep. Sleep satisfies. Sleep satisfies. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep satisfies. Sleep satisfies.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think that is something that would be declared on your year-end income tax return. I plan to get my taxes done later this month, so I'm going to ask the preparer to be sure. If that is the case, I'm not sure if that would go on the 2009 tax return since the transaction occurred in December, or if it would go on the 2010 tax return since it won't be shipped (and a lot of us didn't pay for the item) until January. I'll post something later this month or early next month when I find out the answer from the "expert".

Well, if the Oracle doesn't post a correction on Tuesday regarding the Simpsons episode, then I'll send a snarky comment/question about it. Snarky. Love that word.

You're right Anna... I just checked my TV listings to be sure, and it definitely is not on this Thursday. It's funny, the link the Oracle provided even says it is the 31st. I considered sending a message, but I'm sure the Oracle will be bombarded by other people saying the same thing. Methinks the Oracle should put a qualifying * next to "The Oracle Knows Everything", with the * at the bottom saying 'most of the time'. :lol: Hmmm... maybe that's the 'question' I should send... You don't think the Oracle is Debs, do you? If so, I don't want to offend her or anything.

^ Well, I suppose that is true (the weather situation). Even so, a mass e-mail to the winning bidders would have been nice, we shouldn't have to work so hard. I did get a response saying they received the money, and they indicated they would give me tracking info once they had it. But, I suppose because of the weather there, that may not be for awhile. They received the money, so that's all I really care about now. It will come eventually.

It's about -10 celsius here, which is fine, I don't mind it. What I do mind is when we get a few inches of snow right before/during rush hour, which in and of itself isn't bad but the road commission doesn't have enough time to plow and salt the roads, so it took me 2 hours to get to work (instead of the usual half hour).

Mmmph. Oh well. But I'm still in a good mood, because I'm a happy-go-lucky kind of person like that; I live by my siggy… :awesome:

sorry, double post, my connection stinks right now

Ha! Multi-talented Will. Love it! Hey, is it just me, or does that mustache make Jonny look like a 70s porn star?

Will says, "how the f*** did my thread get to page 2? Show me some love!"
