This Night Owl Blog has given so much!
It is a fun place, we don't bash and we have fun being "tedious"!
We offer advice, give love, lots of free food and an open forum which can be about anything that is important, thought provoking or just plain silly.
And sometimes we just March (some to different drummers, but all together). :)
It is not about a single person, it is about all the people on any given day blended together.....Goldie!
Lots of things to do today..we may even have a date with a pirate..how fun is that? Better get to the farms and then jump into the shower. I hope everyone has a good day today!
MO: I lit the candle as soon as I got up and I'm saying prayers that your cousin Elaine's surgery is a complete success!♥
Good morning ZONA!! Looking mighty fine in 1st today!! Have fun at the movie....arrrrrrrrr ;)
SHIRLEY - So sweet...brought a tear to my eye. My hubby didn't do it that big, but he did send me on a wild goose chase one night so he could ask my Dad for my hand in marriage ♥
I am finding news on the shooting in Jennifer's town...

A woman was shot this morning on the northeast side of Dillon Elementary School in Rock Falls near 19th St. and 8th Ave, where children were playing.
Both Rock Falls Middle School and Dillon School are on lockdown.
The shooting took place around 8:30 a.m.
An officer told a bystander, "She's still alive," referring to the victim.
About 50 parents are in the gym, while students are being kept in their classrooms. There is no word on whether school will be let out early on this warm spring day.
Parents are being allowed into the gym while the lockdown takes place. They must have IDs to pick up their children.
"Thank God stray bullets didn't hit any of the children," said Dawn Sandrock, who has three grandchildren at the school.
The school reportedly sent out a voice mail and text alert around 9:30 a.m. Some parents are angry that Dillon didn't send one out right away.
The shooting occurred during the morning rush of parents and students entering the school.

very scary....but I guess the worst is over.....what a thing to see....
Maybe the school will dismiss for the day...and give witnesses time to process this...
That video made me sad because as a gay man I am not deemed fit to marry...that I am considered worthy of fewer constitutional rights than the people in that video who are clearly mentally unstable...
He with his body all tattooed and she with her pyorrhea swollen gums making a public spectacle of themselves with that pitiful engagement ring probably from the fine jewelry department of JCPenny!
They'll have a tacky wedding and I am sure the reception will be a drunken brawl and all 13 gap toothed...slack jawed guests along with the bride and groom will be arrested and thrown in the pokey!
I hope they both turn out to be abusive and spend the rest of their married life pounding the crap out of one another!
Pieter van Houten has invited me to a "Post Rapture Looting" beginning at noon tomorrow!!
heres part of the invite!
"When everyone is gone and god's not looking, we need to pick up some sweet stereo equipment and maybe some new furniture for the mansion we're going to squat in."
So starting 30 minutes ago kids were released to parents who wanted their kids.
I have 13 still here and we are playing on the computers. Violence is no stranger here in my town some of the parents see no reason to take their kids home.

Hey Shirley!! Who ask you? If you are trying to start trouble with your smart mouth I will take care of that away from the nest....let me know via FB...otherwise STFU....
Jennifer, I'm so sorry you saw that happen! I was subbing at Merrill today (was at Dillon on Tue. & Wed). The woman who was shot and killed was the mother of one of my after school students. My heart goes out to her. Also, Desera (who was in your class) was the one who saw it and called 911 (she and Sonea). They were both inconsolable! All three of those girls were here at Merrill today. It was a very scary thing and I hope we NEVER have anything like it again! However, I do think our schools do a great job at keeping everyone safe!
I feel sick too. Am consoling with Captain Morgan tonight!

That was a 4 Slice Toaster.
Michael I found the last paragraph of your comment at 3:44 and your entire comment at 3:45 tasteless and rude. Grow up!
Hey Shirley!! Who ask you? If you are trying to start trouble with your smart mouth I will take care of that away from the nest....let me know via FB...otherwise STFU....
Hi guys! Back again! (the other Jennifer)!
Jennifer, I'm so sorry you saw that happen! I was subbing at Merrill today (was at Dillon on Tue. & Wed). The woman who was shot and killed was the mother of one of my after school students.

Michael kiss my ass!!!
Shirley....I realize that you are trying to show off for your "friends" but we are supposed to handle personal things away from the nest...
But I do just have to ask...when you say "Michael KMA!" ...are we talking about the east side...or the west side?? Or the north and south as well?
Because I am going to have to get a bigger kisser.....ijs
Good evening Owls! Zona, TAMPAGRANNY, Bebbi, Lynn and Jodi I'm glad you liked the video! I thought it was pretty cool! How were YOU proposed to?
Hi, TG!
Absolute craziness in the comments today! Jennifer, that's absolutely horrible. Shirley and Michael... I'm speechless!
Wowzer! And all this just before we all either ascent to heaven or perish in a big earthquake!
