Well, you can see it in the post that Skillet modified, right? Maybe I'll see if I can come up with some other random nonsense to add here instead.

maybe I am really dumb here,,, but where is there a place where you see the youtube option in a reply?

I go away for a bit and it's hard to keep up! When I come back I try to make sure that everyone's thoughts have been acknowledged... but sometimes it's hard to do that.Thanks for the well wishes about Josie... she's well loved.

Does anyone's back and arm hurt from being here all the time?

BTW- I was wondering if maybe this- - is supposed to be from the SNL skit with the Roxbury boys? Where the poor girl in the middle is just getting uh... danced to death? This one is just a snippet with a peculiar and ironic twist at the end. How weird is that???


Here's some more hugs for anyone that might need one.

Hey, question... do you guys actually "log out" when you leave? Or do you just close the page?

I just close the page. I'm auto logged in when I return by my computer. And I'm not worried about people getting on my name because there are 2 passwords to get onto my computer, and both of them are my fingerprints. lol.

You have to have my index finger and my middle finger to even start up my hard drive.

Watch the clip. Cut to 0:26 seconds into the clip and look at the lower left hand corner.

Whoa... like Disney! You must have some important stuff on your computer.

Sometimes the husband has gone to NAM and even though he logs in it shows my green light still on. Sometimes it's off. Maybe sometimes I don't close the page... just minimize it.

Funny how there is no record anywhere of Johnny Depp having any step-brothers or sisters, but his siblings are publicly noted everywhere else... would also like to know how she can live in a trailer next door to John Travolta who's Florida home is in a neighborhood that, from my understanding, one can only access via a private airstrip. Correct me if I'm wrong on that last one.

I was thinking this very thing!!! Didn't know JT lived in a trailer park/mobile home park- whatever is politically correct. And I doubt that his estate backs up to it either.
Miniola,,I agree with what you said about returning and trying to acknowledge everyone's posts,,, hard to do at times...glad I am not the only one struggling to catch up.
And I remember those dorky guys on SNL,,, one of my faves,,, absolutely.

Mytmous good catch on the classic mini in that video clip....

More to reply to..... minicooperwwill,,, thanks, uhm, for that vidoe clip,,,, I think??
Gemgirl,, don't let Lacey's sweet little " Lady and the Tramp" Disney face fool you, she barreled into me with not a care at all for my well being. That little dog loves to eat!!
And Miniola- I never log out, I just close down the page. I don't share my laptop with anyone so I figured it was not a problem,,,, not that I get on here and scam people or anything like that

Former Hooters waitress settles toy Yoda suit

PANAMA CITY, Fla. (AP) — A former waitress has settled her lawsuit against Hooters, the restaurant that gave her a toy Yoda doll instead of the Toyota she thought she had won.

Jodee Berry, 27, won a beer sales contest last May at the Panama City Beach Hooters. She believed she had won a new Toyota and happily was escorted to the restaurant's parking lot in a blindfold.

But when the blindfold was removed, she found she had won a new toy Yoda — the little green character from the Star Wars movies.

David Noll, her attorney, said Wednesday that he could not disclose the settlement's details, although he said Berry can now go to a local car dealership and "pick out whatever type of Toyota she wants."

After the stunt, Berry quit the restaurant and filed a lawsuit against Gulf

Coast Wings, the restaurant's corporate owner, alleging breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation.

The restaurant's manager, Jared Blair, has said the whole contest was an April Fools' joke.

I mapped it out. Her trailer park is about 8 miles from Mr. Travolta's house. I guess by her logic I'm neighbors with a lot of famous people.

Chevy Chase did come to the drive-thru of the Popeyes Chicken I was working at in Pueblo, CO when they were filming National Lampoons Vacation. (a long time ago)
