gemgirlpa - wasn't Nugget going to get bonnet stripes this weekend? Or were you just thinking about it? How did they turn out?

MtyMous - I love your classic, it is so British and has the cute bum that the Minis and MINIs do so well. Like the old VW Bug you just cannot help but smile when you drive behind one.

x uh oh x - ah Magnum, those eyes, that smile, that goofy laugh - a man not afraid to show his emotions. I still remember the episode "Did You See the Sunrise?" - enough said.

I have and still am enjoying this threat. Such great people here. Perhaps Apple will come clean and either come through with the Mini or at least fess up and turn over a new leaf and promise no more cons. It is very said if this was a con and this is how she entertains herself. Regardless of her motives, she caused strangers to become friends and the thousands of miles and several states melt away into one very large party.

MYEMINI and MYECOOP are freshly bathed and tucked away for the night and the outside of the house reflects no hint of Christmas past. I still however have the tree up and lit as hope lives on for Skillet. Everyone has a good side, sometimes it is just hidden very deeply away. Let's hope that with the spring thaw, Apple's goodness comes to life as well.

Come on Apple do the right thing!
Well, I think Sandy aka Apple aka CyberGypsy just loves to promise pictures
http://www.8thcivic.com/forums/ontar...ml#post4492491

and she has been promising for at least 9 days on her diet blog for a photo of her chubby bundle in a bra and panties.....

before that she promised photos of some sort of navigation screen mod that she claimed she could do...here on NAM

I see a pattern.

Yes and no... Yes i was supposed to go today, but woke to a snow storm, so i sent my MA a message asking what the weather was down her way, because I'm up North and we get worse weather up here. She called the "strip guy" and they decided to postpone until next saturday instead... don't you know i went out to shovel and then came in, and the time i would have left to go to the dealer it was clear out!! Figures.
About 3 hours later it started snowing again and worse this time, so i gues it was all worth not going out!

so hopefully next week..


Our tree and decorations are still up until tomorrow! I didn't feel right sending the hubby up the roof today during a storm!

I have so much respect for all of you living with snow. I barely survive when we hit the high 30's. Our thick fog is no fun but MINI takes it all in stride and handles it like a dream. I so love the automatic lights. She knows when to turn them on and when to turn them off, I don't even have to think about it. When I get to work and she turns them off, as I walk away but then turn around to double check, (out of habit) I cannot help but smile as I know she is thinking, "I've got it handled, now go to work!"

Nite nite to all and sweet Mini/MINI dreams.

Hmm...We may not have snow problems, but next weekend is going to be a real BUGGER around here - inaugural weekend, and they're projecting craziness starting this wednesday for at least a week. I suspect longer. Hotels are booked as far south as Richmond (two hours away.) I would greatly prefer SNOW.

So I can hardly type I am laughing so hard! I wasn't planning on posting anything else tonight. For some reason I went to check the "Cybergypsy" E-90 (BMW) link and see if she'd checked in there today.

See link: http://www.e90post.com/forums/member.php?u=47467

SHE HAS APPARENTLY JUST MOVED TO KEY WEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bet she's been really busy trying to get rid of any evidence to where she is and what she's doing. Oh no... what a web we weave.

Uh... road trip to KEY WEST anyone? Guess what... there's only one road in and one road out... and the only place left to go from there... CUBA! HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHH!!!!

For real... we still know where you are... and it's NOT KEY WEST!!

Yeah that has got to be a bummer, trying to get around during rush hour let alone 185,000 extra people!!
I hate snow but this is where my family, I have lived here all my life. But I did say just yesterday to a friend, "only 1 1/2 more months" then usually no snow and it will start to get nicer out! that means CONVERTIBLE TIME!!!

She must notice she's being watched! Wonder which car she used to pull the mobile home? Or if she called her step brother Johnny Depp to help.

Out of respect to the Travolta family, I'll refrain from saying anything about her being their neighbor.

Here's the infamous Apple bra/panty picture.

Thank GOD it's only a Granny Smith Apple!

I didn't think I could laugh any harder... but I just did! I'll try to stop... as you said... "out of respect for the Travolta family".

So is the next forum going to be for the Camaro (or as she spells it "Camero") or the "Phaeton" (?) and isn't there an R8 somewhere?

Boy the subject sure moves FAST!! Hadn't had a chance to get Pet Photos posted, we have two 4-legged critters. Here is a pic. of MY Baby Girl Sadie, she's an almost 7 Year Old Chocolate Lab Mix.And "Rosie" MY Husband's Australian Shepherd Mix, she just turned 3 in December.

http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/l...y/IMG_1543.jpg

They are never far from one another so to get pics. of them apart is unusual.

Each of our girls were rescue dogs. Sadie was adopted from a Rescue Shelter in The Dalles, OR, we drove an hour to go and fetch her. And Rosie came from the SW Washington Humane Society, both were puppies when we brought them home.

Sadie is our "Wild Child" and Rosie is "Licky Dog", but we LOVE them to pieces and they are SPOILED to no end!!

BTW- I forgot to add "7 Series" to the list of forums.

OK... gotta go... watching a movie and getting "talked to".

Ok, so I know I have a problem, but Apple is bugging me.

On her VW forum back in 2006 she claimed she invented a car air freshener and wanted to give out samples. A bunch of people sent her their addresses and wait for it..... never heard from her again.

http://newbeetle.org/forums/showthread.php?t=7641

Ok, I'm going to Apple detox for the night.

Skillet, still hoping for the best but it's looking bleaker as time goes on.

We keep talking about getting a second lab to keep her company but now sure if she is too spoiled to accept another in her home..

I heard something about the automatic lights but I don't think i have them. What package is that in? or better question does the convertible have that option?
