bonachichi said...

Good morning, Cheating Tina.

Thanks for the laugh, EBJ!

Happy Friday everyone!

whabbear said...

LOL! Thank you, Nurse Judy!!!!

Good morning, Tina and Bon!

Lynn D said...

Morning Glories!

Tina is the prettiest today.

LMAO EBJ. I just sat through 2 hours of health dept. training and this is so true!

Here are some fun factoids I learned.

When washing hands it should take 20 seconds. How do you know you have washed for 20 seconds? Sing the Happy Birthday song twice at the top of your lungs. This insures that your coworkers or copee'ees know that you have used the alloted 20 second rule.

98 percent of all stomach flu's are not flu but actually food poisoning.

Always put frozen chicken or poultry at the bottom of your freezer or fridge. Why you may ask? Because it carries the most germy germs and if your freezer goes out that thawing blood and goo will not contaminate all of the other food in your appliances.

Oh, if you have a cut or wound on your hands you should bandage it and double glove!!!! Nasty hands.

Always remove your gloves before you pick your nose and then wash for 20 seconds and then reglove. Same applies for butt picking, lice scratching etc.....

PS I got 100 percent on the test. I did think it was a little intrusive when they followed me into the ladies room to make sure I followed all of the rules.

Good morning Miss pretty.
Hi chichi and Bear.

I could have used those gloves and my own seat last weekend. :)
Took a Limo home from the concert to my SIL's house. Should take an hour and a half. We get in Limo at midnight-I say to driver, find the first place you can to stop to pee.

Stuck in traffic, then nothing open in the area (easy in and out)- finally a gas station! Run in- some delightful man in a cage telling me 'no bathroom'. WTF? I promised to buy something- nope.

Back in the limo- driver not exactly sure what the fuck he is doing and takes us off the beaten path (there was less traffic) and stops in Maywood. We look out the window at the gas station and lets say the "crowd of people" and my husband says -get out of here-NOW.

Finally, 2 hours and something later my SIL and I say, if you don't find something NOW- we are peeing in the ice bucket.

Another gas station! YES!!!!! We jump out and run in and both mens and womens says "closed due to septic problem". I could have cried- but instead we went outside, walked over to the dumpster and in full view of the Cabbie sitting there, we pulled our pants down and peed. The longest pee of my life-and laughing the whole time..

The good news? I had tissues in my pocket! LOL

goldie said...

Good Morning Lynn!

I should have said we peed behind the dumpster.. it was better then sex.

Heading up tothe Nicolet Forest in Norther WI, with other SIL this weekend. Never been there, lots of pines and bears I hear.

Flapping a wing at everyone!!

Bebbilane said...

EBJ!! HILARIOUS! LOL..love it.

Tina, so pretty, ehhh.

Morning bonachichi..you certainly are BEAUTIFUL this morning. :)

Morning Whabby!

Morning LynnD! LOL!! picking your nose, butt picking..omg, too funny. :)

Morning Goldie! LOL..girls gotta do what a girls gotta do..thank goodness you had tissues..haha. NICE! :)

Can I whine for a minute? I woke up with a nasty bad headache...it's getting better now..the worst part is my whining..I need to suck it up, woman and DEAL with it..

DeeDee said...

Good morning....

I carry a can of Lysol everywhere I go!

Those are funny EBJ but you can't be too careful!

Just recently I was with 3 friends at a Mexican eatery and as the waiter brought our plates on his big tray he was suddenly overwhelmed by a sneeze and in fairness he didn't have time or a free hand to take proper action thereby sneezing over all of our food....

He said "excuse me!" and proceeded to serve the plates.....we all pushed back like he had sat a cobra on the table....lol

I don't know what the hell people are thinking when I see toddlers crawling around or playing on restroom floors.....seems like every time I look around someone is doing something filthy germie....

I use cash when possible and usually just tell clerks or whomever to just keep the change. When I order cash from the bank I have one of the White girls disinfect it before I touch it. I think she does it on the gentle cycle in the washing machine....so its clean when I get it...but after it leaves my hands God only knows all the nasty that gets on it!

And that old saying....

"See a penny...pick it up...and all day long..you'll have good luck?"

these days you pick up a penny and you may very well get one of those flesh eating viruses that'll eat your fingers off...ijs...

last time i did that I fell forward...hit the top of my head on the sidewalk...fell...split the ass outta my pants...busted my brassiere...and managed to pee..poop..and spit up a little at the same time.....

What were we talking about?

Lynn D said...

A simple tip:

Beware of street meat.

Bebbilane said...

LynnD: LOL! Street meat??..

DeeDee: LOL! flesh eating viruses??

You guys are too funny. :)

Bebbilane said...

DeeDee: Wow, on yesterday's video! Amazing!! That was cool how the one car went just around that guy that was standing there. all if it was pretty awesome though..was that a Cadbery Cream egg that fell on that car??

DeeDee said...

Well I have some sad news....my Farm Town Farm has been vandalized....

They stole a truck and left a junk car....ripped up flower beds..including my prize roses.

They tore banana and coconut trees right out of the ground and rung my chickens neck....but the worst part is in the fields....

They mowed the words "eat me" and "F**ck you" with my riding lawn mower....

My plane and helicopter weren't damaged but I will be moving them today.....

I won't have an estimate on the damages until they get all the feces out of the pool sometime today.....

I definitely will be staying in Farm Ville from now on...away from all the crime and violence that the new mega farms in Farm-town have created with all the thousands of illegal workers that have been brought in and the drug cartels that have law enforcement scared to act....

I knew something like this would happen after the injunction that tied authorities hands on checking peoples papers.....I just didn't expect it to happen to me....

I guess you never think it will... until it does...

So...in the meantime...I am accepting date trees in Farm Ville as gifts to make my farm more private...

There is a rumor that many of my neighbors were seen looting my farm during the vandalism but I don't believe the rumors TINA..Zona..Lynn D..Mary and Dianne...

sacBarb said...

Oh DeeDee, I am so sorry about your farm. I can't believe any of those people you mentioned would do that. I'm sure it must have been some hungry fool who wanted some pizza and found the place empty. The authorities will probably catch them soon.

Dianne/Denver said...

EBJ: Good ideas.....I like the idea of carrying my own toilet seat! I guess I could just wear Depends and then it wouldn't be a problem.

DEEDEE: I DID NOT LOOT YOUR FARM. Now I will admit I swam in the pool for awhile but no pooping as once again....I had on my big girl pull ups and they are made for swimming. I guess you will have to look at your other neighbors. I won't rat anyone out but I did see ZONA with a U-Haul but I am sure there is a logical explanation for that....right ZONA?

TINA: Congrats on being beautiful yet another morning and on your day off to boot. You must be farming very late and quite possibly dropped by DEEDEE's farm during the night.....again, not pointing any fingers just observing.

BEBBI: Hope you are better as the day has progressed. It's not a fun way to start the day with a headache and you can whine any darn time you want too.

GOLDIE: WOW , that was quite a night for you. By then you had probably forgotten all about Jon just needing to potty!! Good thing you are young and can hold it for two hours. I might have some panties to talk to you about for those long excursions!!

BEAR: What are you up to this weekend? Has your helper given up his strike yet?

LYNN; I sing all the time and it seems to clear the bathroom pretty often. I just sing while I am sitting on the pot, I didn't realize it was supposed to be while washing my hands. I'll try that next time.

Glad to see the owls are into such good health issues and taking care of not passing on germs. I heard the remotes in hotels are pretty nasty too!

CHICHI: Good afternoon to you. You are quiet today. Any big trips planned that you can tell us about?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY weekend CAROL and hope you have a lot of fun.

I cracked up at these 'tips.' The money one did gross me out, however. Maybe I can employ DeeDee's friend to wash my money for me.

Tina, I didn't expect to see your pretty face so early this morning.

Lynn, So, what would they do to you if you didn't follow the rules. Good thing you are a quick study.

I have got so much to do and I am getting a very late start, so I'll BBL. Have a good day everyone.

OMG< ALL those deletes are mine. The blog kept saying it wouldn't post so I had to copy and paste and then all of a sudden....they all posted....sorry.

Dianne/Denver said...

SACBARB; You came in while I was posting my ten post....Good Morning....better get going on those chores...or maybe save them for another day :)

DeeDee said...

Well as if I don't have enough on my plate right now my Doctor just called and apparently I have a poltergeist!!

I was having chapped lips and I was gagging pretty regularly and my mouth felt hot....The Doctor did an x-ray and discovered the poltergeist!

I had no idea when I used the x-ray for my avatar today. I just had a closer look after Doc called and I can SEE THE PROBLEM!!

Guess I am going to have to call Tangina.....

Mary/MI said...

Where to start.....
Goldie has had me peeing my pants in empathy
LynnD,congrats on test

Whabby "HI!"

Bebbi, I think I was sharing your morning headache!

DeeDee, eek! on the crawling babies! I see that a lot in stores too!
While at the County fair last week,I noticed a young lady holding a tiny baby. She proudly stated that the baby was 3 days old and she had it by cesarean! She was sitting on a nasty bench while feeding it. Can you imagine all the nasty germs floating around that place?

SacBarb, I hope you getterdone :)

Diane, I was sure I saw you dragging your boot across DeeDee's fields chasing a cute laborer!
I was there merely as an observer of course!

btw, at the fair I saw a t-shirt that read "Relax Gringo, I am here legally" LOL!!

Jodi said...

Well, it's been one long ass day. It started out well enough. Made the trip down to Amboy in just under 2 hours. Had coffee and various baked goods with LOIS, then started the trek back to Wisconsin. Sam decided that she just HAD to go to Plato's Closet (thanks for the googling ZONA!!), so we bypassed our exit and headed to Madison. Got home in time to drop Tim off at the pool and took Jake to his dr's appt. OMG....poor kid had so much wax build-up his ears looked like they were puking!! Got a call from Paul saying he was on his way home. The next call I got was him again saying he would be awhile cuz there was an accident. I said ok and hung up. I called him back to ask if hamburgers were ok for supper.....he said he couldn't deal with that right now, because the EMT was checking him over. WHAT?!!? That's right, he failed to tell me that HE was the one that was in the accident!!!! Thankfully he is fine. Very lucky...he was t-boned. Truck not so fine, but that can be fixed!!!!

EBJ....cute tips!!

CAROL - Enjoy your birthday weekend!!

Waving a wing at everyone else....sorry, too pooped and overwhelmed to do/post anything else.

bonachichi said...

Goldie, I was working with a man who had to do a Number 2, so we pulled to the side of the highway. He made it about 5 steps then squatted and let loose. As a cop car pulled up behind us. It took 6 hours to bail him out of jail.

bonachichi said...

Dianne, I have been on a "trip" for a week now... Back in the old stomping grounds of Italy and Switzerland. It's early morning here, but I've given up trying to sleep.

Mary knew about it, but maybe she forgot?

bonachichi said...

DeeDee, you ARE a poltergeist.

bonachichi said...

DEEDEE!! Is that a penis in your mouth?? Oh my holy crap. Who's DeeDee blowin' now?

Bebbilane said...

Jodi! Sheesh..what a thing to forget to mention!! wow...Glad he's okay.

Bebbilane said...

Mary: That sucks, I hope your headache went away quickly. Mine lingered all day.. Uggh..but I did feel better after work a little.

bonachichi said...

I'd say Jodi gets the bragging rights for "Most Exciting Day Ever".

East Bay J said...

Hi hooters!

We got back from Tahoe this afternoon, I have lots to catch up on. Barely got on the computer while I was gone!

Jodi, so sorry about your hubby's accident! Thank goodness he's ok. That is so scary.

Tina thanx for posting this, I'd forgotten I sent it to you! It still makes me laugh. I like the "shaking hands with a stick" cartoon.

I hope everyone has a nice weekend! I will try to catch up with blogs and everything else.

Maureen said...

EBJ...those are hilarious!

TINA...looking lovely!

DEE DEE...that's ghostly, er ghastly to have a poltergeist in your mouth!

HODI...glad hubby is ok. I hope the schmuck that hit him has insurance.

DIANNE...is farm raiding a new form of physical therapy?

GOLDIE...how did you even hold it for 2 hours? You must have a bladder of steel!

East Bay J said...

OMG just saw Dee Dee's avatar, didn't realize she had a big
الت‌ رجوليت‌in her mouth!
(written in Persian lol)

Looks kinda odd when x-rayed!

Tooooo funny!!

Maureen said...

I think it is disgusting that there have to be signs posted telling people that they have to wash their hands after using the bathroom...isn't it common sense? Do these same morons have to have signs in their own bathrooms at home or if not do they not wash their hands?

Does anyone remember pay phones? Those were gross! And it went up against your face! Ewwwww!

I like how our grocery stores have bleach wipes by the carts so you can sanitize the handle before using them.

There was a study of the bottom of women's purses and the results were horrifying! And those purses get set down on contertops and tables...again...ewwwwww!

Mary/MI said...

Jodi, How scary! I am so glad he is alright! Rest young lady!

EBJ, glad you made it home safe!

Bonachi, I am a senior citizen and forget a lot! I Do remember feeling sooo jealous about your going to Italy!! Thanks again for all the good info. :)
Our first stop will be Santorini Greece. Mr Mary keeps informing that he heard somewhere about kidnappings somewhere in Greece! I seem to recall the same conversation when I went to France lol!

Bebbi, all is good now. I rarely get headaches. I think this was allergy related.

Mary/MI said...

MOOOOOOOOO!
I read the same thing about purses! I hate when anybody puts theirs on our table at a restaurant.I had to gently scold the VFW Ladies. They put their purses on our kitchen counter tops!They would roll their eyes like "hey, I've lived this long doing it" lol!
BTW,Mo be sure to wipe your hands AFTER you leave the store too.
Mr Mary thinks I am a nut for carrying Clorox wipes to Vegas with me. I wipe down the airplane trays and the remotes in our room and especially the terlet handle!

Zona said...

EBJ: Personally I like the washing your hands with gloves on..you never can be too careful..lol..

TINA: Hope you're feeling better!

JODI: So scary..I'm glad your hubby is ok! Googling for you was my pleasure.. :)

LYNN: I read that when you brush your teeth it is supposed to be for at least two minutes..they said to sing "My Favorite Things"..that's a trick..try it sometime..messy, messy, messy.. ;)

GOLDIE: Omg..someday I have to tell you about my experience during a Dan Fogelberg concert..

BEBBI: Finished chapters 1-4..

DEEDEE: Well, I know your avatar's not Brendon..right EBJ? ;)

DIANNE: There IS a logical explanation..as soon as I think of it I'll let you know.. :D

SACBARB: I think you might be my alibi..lol..

BONACHI: What kind of trouble are you getting into..ummm..I mean fun are you having in Italy and Switzerland? ;)

MO: There was the same report about cell phones..yuck..

MARY: I've seen moms give their babies back their pacifiers after they've been dropped on the floor of a store..ewwwww...

BEAR: I hope you have a great weekend!

Well it looked like there was gonna be a storm here tonight, but it fizzled out..so maybe we'll go swimming afterall! Have a good night everyone!

Maureen said...

MARYYYYYYYYYYYYYY...LOL!

I get grossed out when I see people wash their hands then use them to turn off the dirty faucet and open the dirty door handle! I use my towel to turn off the water and open the door! I hate when public bathrooms have those dryers...no paper towel to turn off the water with...and I end up using my shirt to open the door handle!!

Mary/MI said...

Mo, I do the same thing. We are starting to sound like the MONK LOL!!

bonachichi said...

Zona, I've not been in any real trouble... flying into the little municipal airport though, the pilot pretended to faint and I had an aneurysm.

Mary/MI said...

I am off to farm,,,

bonachichi said...

You guys are doing the bathroom thing all wrong. I just say, "screw it". I wipe with my hand, don't wash and touch everything. If anyone's going to be passing germs around, by god, it's going to be me.

Bebbilane said...

Kathy: Nice, do you like it? It's pretty interesting, huh. I am anxious to see what happens~!

Bebbilane said...

Dianne: Thanks for the permission to whine. It was a rough day, I had that headache last quite a while.

Dianne/Denver said...

ZONA: Who is Dan Fogelberg? :)

Jodi said...

MO - The accident was Paul's fault, and yes he has insurance. He got a ticket for not yielding the right of way. Oh, and if we can't find his "proof" of insurance card and fax it to the Dane County Sheriff's office this weekend he gets another $500 ticket for that.....grrrrr!!!

BONACHICHI - Not sure it was the most "exciting" ;)

Birdee said...

Good Morning Everyone!!!!!

Sneaking in since I seem to be up and at 'em early today.....

Happy Happy Birthday Carol!!!!!!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxox

Sorry I've been MIA for so long....I'm a bad cyber friend lately. :(

Been a little busy and tired....and just kinda yucky!

Had to take my mom to the ER yesterday so they could check to see if she had a blood clot in her leg. She has to have knee replacement surgery in a few weeks..fell a couple of weeks ago and her leg started to swell...
Everything came out ok though...no clot.
But, I still had to get my nervous jokes in......as the nurse was leaving the room after taking her medical history, I asked my mom if she remembered to tell her about her pot smoking! Cracked me up when the nurse turned around and said..."what?"

Anyway....just wanted to say Hey and I've been thinking about you all. I've probably missed a few other Owl birthdays since I was here last. I'm sorry 'bout that.

Once my mom has her surgery, I'll be over there more often and probably even more out of the loop.

I miss you guys!!!!
~~~
Gotta get back to the laundry so I can get moving today...
Love ya!!!!!!

Maureen said...

HODI...I'm sorry. I guess I shouldn't jump to conclusions. And I shouldn't randomly call people schmucks. I'm sorry. Call your agent and have him fax or email you a copy of his proof of insurance.

BIRDEEEEEEEEE...you're a lovely sight for sore eyes! SOOOOOO nice to see your post. Hope everything goes ok for your mom.
