Man it hurts to put the truth into words!!!!

Uhhh...it HURTS to know the only heavy breathing I'll probably hear from now on is my OWN!

Oh, well...it sure beats an unpleasant break-up when it's over!

Yep...and you ca still roll over and smoke afterwards...you just have to light your own cig!

I know deep down...you are really laughing at that last PM....

...and Mary is just IMAGINING that PM!

and afterwards, I needed a cigarette!

No doubt about it; I LOVE,LOVE Fall and Winter. I HATE SUmmer the most.

Winter - definitely - I love the snow and crisp dry air, the way things look clean and new when it snows, the stark trees with no leaves - nevermind, that sounds sick even to me. Mid-autumn with the leaves changing and the air drying, cool nights and medium warm days. spring with new growth, a million shades of green, birds at the feeders, but oh the pollen - the yellow cars, sneezing, watery eyes. I really don't like summer - too much Marching Band practice in the broiling hot sun. The parking lot last summer was 116 degrees.

Yea! I like Loz's suggestion as well. Sprummer for me!!

Been there, done that ....I have to say that wasn't much fun....being out in the heat on the field with our stupid dot book..... :p



Yah Meg, another Sprummer lover!

Great pic Loz!

Cool, loz!
Maybe I'll post my band picture now! NOT!

Closest I got to the band was...
...well, I better not tell that story here.

Just kidding...
I was a majorette...not really what you'd classify as "band" I guess. :rolleyes:

That's getting to be a pretty old pic.... Let's see I was 16 then...so it was almost 14 years ago....that was my natural hair color---I haven't seen that for years..... I loved being on the flag/rifle squad....it was a lot of hard work, but a lot of fun too.

Cindy, we weren't really classified as band either......one day we(the flags) all snuck off the field and the director didn't even notice we were gone....all he cared about was the actual band...although during performances we were a big part of the scoring for competitions...

Cute picture. Band and guard are now considered a single entity unless one group is in trouble and the rest want to distance themselves. My girl is pit percussion so she at least doesn't have to spin or march but when it's that hot even standing still is a work out (not to mention pushing the heavy equipment up hill, both ways, etc... )

Awwe, loz was so cute in flags. Here's me & Steve the first week we were together.



I HATED those uniforms. SO HOT! *blech* That was without the nasty hat too. Which we always wore. This was marching band. Concert band was ok, just had to wear a long black dress or skirt/blouse.

I love the new season ya'll have come up with-sprummer! It's great, now I can dream thru this cold days. WOW-SPRUMMER!!1

Is it sprummer yet?

My favorite season ie Hunting season all of them. Fishing season last year round here it is also my favorite season.

Loz- GREAT photo. Isn't it funny to see yourself when you were just a baby.

You know, I just read something about that Double Summer time in England a coupole of weeks ago, and thought, "Man, that would ROCK!" I happened onto a website about daylight savings all over the world, and found out all kinds of interesting daylight savings trivia:

Like there are fewer traffic accidents during daylight savings, and energy consumption is cut significantly. (Apparently the reason for England's double Summer Time during WWII)

Like, Japan doesn't do daylight savings. Neither does Arizona, Hawaii, or some parts of Indiana.

Like, somebody sucessfully avoided being drafted in the Vietnam war by using daylight savings. He argued that his state's "official" time for recording births was standard time, and he was born during daylight savings, and if they had recorded standard time, he would have been born the previous day, which had a much better lottery number.

Some kid in California was charged with reckless driving and vehicular manslaughter in an accident where he said someone's sprinkler system had soaked the road causing it to be unnaturally slippery. The guy who had installed the sprinkler system testified that that was impossible because he had the system set for such-and-such a time. Then the kid's lawyer (I think) figured out that the guy hadn't adjusted for daylight savings, and was able to prove the sprinklers had been on for like 45 minutes, so the kid was found not guilty.

Okay, sorry, done with the daylight savings trivia. Didn't mean to bore you, I just thought it was interesting. Also, all part of my campaign to make daylight savings permanent!

Cool!
I thought that was VERY interesting.

I thought that was all really cool info ....It's freaky you were just reading about that in England...not too many people know about that...heck, even I didn't until Dad told me....I hate turning the clocks back :p .....I don't understand why we do it....We would save energy if it wasn't turned back..... Maybe it's a conspiracy from the government so we DO pay more energy bills.....
