h1. Hi Pookie
Thats not my kinda movie, but im glad you had fun.

[rgreen4]

I have the book and it was great. I'm undecided about the movie, but will probably get the DVD when it comes out. I generally don't go to theaters as they are such a hassle and if there's anyone noisy around it's hard to enjoy the movies. When I'm watching a DVD at home, the dogs know to be quiet lest they get tossed in the back yard for a few hours.

Today my friend and I went to see Marley & Me, with Jennifer Aniston. It was really, really good. We laughed so much, and we cried too.

Yeah, I heard about that one. Don't know if I want to see it as they gave the ending away. I still have memories of Old Yeller and I have never been able to watch that again.

Good morning adama. Not at all......Those are for you.:x

yesterday i went to help decorate the Rose Parade Floats... it was freezing cold there working there for ike 6hrs didn't get out til 11pm at night lol but it was pretty fun gluing stuff on all the floats

[coastie65]

Hey lil, A lot of work goes into those things. I am always amazed when I see them as it is hard to believe all the Rose petals that into one.

[lilxkid24]

oh yea there was a lot of work around 500+ workers mostly teens that were gluing this and that on painting this, the floats were huge too so we had to climb up on these platforms to work on some and they didn't allow us to use ipods text or take pics inside but most people didn't really care bout that lol.

[Adama]

Thanks, Tech. I always enjoy all the fun stuff you come up with.

:x

Unfortunately, losing a dog is part of life. We should just be thankful for the time we have for them, and the best way to honor a beloved pet that we have lost, is to get another and not dwell on the past. This is tough, but otherwise we just sit and think of the past. The longest I have ever had a dog was for almost 12 years. He has been gone for 13 years, and although I ocassionally think of him at certain moments, my current brood keeps me busy. I can remember all my dogs, and look back on my time with them with affection.

[Adama]

You're absolutely right, RG. One of the things that hit me, hit us (my friend and I) yesterday, while watching Marley & Me, was how much we both missed her dog Shanta, even though it's going to be 2 years on Feb. 09 that she was put to sleep.


If you ever get the chance, rent the DVD. It is a delightful movie, and for what I believe, based on a true story. I think you'll like it.

[coastie65]

Yeah I know. I remember having Andy's predecessor put to sleep. His name was Bear and he was a little 14 and just about blind. He was full of Cancer and about crippled up as well, but it was still hard.

[Adama]

Awww... Sorry about Bear, Coastie. It's never easy having to put your best friend to sleep.

[coastie65]

Yeah Feb 18, 2001. The same day that my favorite nascar driver ( Dale Earnhardt) died at Daytona. Not a good day.

[Adama]

That sounds like a lot of fun, Lil, and a lot of work too. You're very lucky to have been there. And, I'm glad you had the opportunity to do something like that.


Just think, in the future, when you have kids of your own, you'll be able to tell them how you helped create these beautiful floats for the Rose Parade.

[Adama]

I wonder if anybody is doing anything special for New Years?

[mcbarker]

Nothing on New Year, but a bunch of us from work are going to see Cheech & Chong at the Mohegan Sun casino the night after New Year. I'm not really expecting too much though. Tommy Chong is still funny, but Cheech Marin seems to have lost his sense of humor. How 'bout you?

[ARock84]

Nothing special here either! I have to work later, then usuall. So I don't see myself doing to much! But Going to Atlantic City for the weekend, starting Friday! Time to Win Some MONEY!!! :) :) :)

[rtfire1]

we are sitting at home with the kids playing world tour and watching some movies. I think its going to be world tour for an hour then a movie then back to world tour

[coastie65]

NOPE. probably do some gaming and end up conking out before the New Year arrives, although I did make it last year. Think I might order a pizza as well ( Thanks Adama :D ) .

[rtfire1]

Well are dog bear is getting on in years and is having a few issues mostly just old age acks and pains but i am thinking in the net 6 month to a year he is going to start having problems. the wife has stated that when he gos she is not going to want to get a new dog right away even thought i think are other dog shadow is going to need a friend. I am also thinking of what the next bread of dog we should get will be. I am thinking I might want a boarder collie again my last one was a canadian boarder collie an she was a blast (also very very good with kids). I will have to see what i have for dog pics that I can upload. I think i even got one for flash with the bros dog behind the wheel of the stang.
