Happy, happy birthday Tom! I hope our paths cross again sometime soon. Until then, have some virtual cake and a wonderful day!

No worries, we knew exactly who you meant. Thank Jack Flash for us! PS - Brianne, he may be adorable but he's also a holy terror....we were just outside pulling weeds in the garden, and as fast as we dropped them into the trash bucket, Noodle was snatching them out and tearing across the yard with them. There are pulled weeds all over my backyard now. But when he sleeps, he is God's own sweet-smelling puppy angel, and a great little snuggle. So it balances out.

Noodle demonstrates how to open Buzz's puppy cat treats: "You'll have to excuse me; I'm busy with a bacon fish right now." Thank you so much, Maggie, the coffee is fantastic and the pets now believe in helping to bring in the mail! You are such a thoughtful sweetheart!!!

I got a lovely package yesterday...or should I say, Noodle got a package yesterday, as it was addressed to "Mr. Noodle Murphy" He was of course wildly excited (which is pretty much his reaction to being alive in general) and immediately set about freeing the contents, as seen below: Many tiny needle-teeth holes later, he finally agreed that perhaps I should help. We got the box open, removed the sealing tape from Noodle's jaws, and stared with wonder and awe at the interior. Even sealed in plastic, the bag of Sumatran coffee hiked my eyelids back into a state of fully awake, and Noodle e

I'm so sorry to hear this, Lynch. How horrible for your friend and for you. I'll keep him in my thoughts and prayers.

Happiest of birthdays, Jen! Hope it's a joyous one! Sweets for the sweet!

Happy Birthday, Sue!

Genius!

They are all sweethearts, and we're some very lucky fans.

Oh, Jenna, she is simply gorgeous! And that picture of Lyric and her Unca Brad is precious beyond words! WOW.

YAY BABY SOOIE!!! Welcome, sweetheart!!!

Being sent with all my vibeational abilities.....getting headache now.....go Jenna go!

Happy Birth Day, Lyric!

You should be ok....for now...

He's actually 17 and a half already....we got around to this late, and he's been champing at the bit for awhile now. He's so proud of himself today. His examiner told him he'd done so well that he should change his name to Perfecto. Yeah, he can't have anyone younger than 20 in the car with him, and can't drive alone between the hours of 11 pm and 5 am. Good, sensible rules I think.

Brennan got his driver's license today. You've all been warned.

The Brothers K had exactly the quality you describe. That also took me awhile to get into, but then suddenly I was so hooked I could hardly put it down. That book had a lot to do with baseball, which I have no particular interest in, but the sweep of the bigger story was so hearfelt and true, emotionally, that it totally won me over.

Happeningstone, I loved Three cups of Tea. Such a great, hopeful story. redpillbox, let us know how Duncan's "The River Why" is. His "The Brothers K" is one of my favorite books ever, one of those you just never want to end because you are so swept up in the saga.

That info came from the TicketWeb site I had bought my tickets through.

This thread has ceases to have anything to do with its subject & since I'm tired of editing offensive posts full of gratuitous obscenities and personal attacks, I'm closing it. Grow up, everybody (you know who you are)....what're you, 12? The flinging about of foul language and "funny" put downs does nothing to enhance your "maturity". Far from it. Jeebus, I feel like I'm babysitting.

Be well, Jenna. The homestretch of pregnancy always seems the hardest, but soon you'll be holding that beautiful baby.

This is on hold at the moment. More information will be posted here before too long.

Best of luck, blindgonzo! May your problems turn out to be manageable & your little car soon be back on the road.

Sorry for any confusion, but TTL is the appropriate forum for general topics (not related to Wilco). We want to be sure everybody sees the upcoming birth news!
