    Just need to vent

    Thanks Beth. Also it's so comforting knowing that while people can let us down, God will "never leave us or forsake us" (Hebrews 13:5). And encourage her that this other guy really did find her beautiful and so plenty of other guys will too. And, since she is so kind and generous, that will...

    What's your favorite baseball team?

    Well I was right about 3 of those four picks. But the one I was wrong about was my Yankees. :cry: Well, I'll say the Cardinals and White Sox in the Series now with the Cards winning. But the Angels are tough so we'll see.

    Happy Birthday, Count!

    Oh yeah and also when he counts the credits. Very funny and clever ending to a spectacular movie.

    What's your favorite Sesame 1-2-3's?

    I haven't been able to find out who any of the others were. Was neat learning that Jim Henson was the guy juggling the 3 balls and that Joe Ponazecki who played Wally in the Ralph and Wally skits was the guy opening all the little doors (like 3 crocodiles and 4 fish). My hunch is that the...

    What Time Zone is You In?

    Eastern for me. That makes the tally so far: 6 eastern 5 central 1 Greenwich By the way, remember the former Eastern airlines? Reminds me of a line Rodney Dangerfield said on his "No respect" album from the early 80's: "Eastern thanked me for flying United!" Other good lines: "I called...

    How Dumb Is Your State

    Good grief it's princess number 9! (State # 9 , not princess. Just thought I'd quote Jim Henson's last line in "The King of 8" skit. :D )

    Happy Birthday, Count!

    My two favorite moments have to be: (1) the skit where the mailman comes to his castle. Cool sound effects and atmosphere at the beginning. Then hilarious dialogue. Especially at the end when the mailman brings in sacks of mail and says, "You must have a lot of friends to send you all this...

    Nfl 2005

    Well didn't do so well this week. I'm 7-6 so far. And too bad my Skins are no longer undefeated. But they played Denver real close, at least. What a shame they fell short because of failing to convert a two point conversion. But it was really great to see the Eagles play so horribly against...

    Your signature-explain yourselves!

    I wanted to do a few lines from the Joe Raposo song, "I'm an aardvark" since I have the blue aardvark avatar and been watching those cartoons again and because it's a great song. But sadly, the signature has to be so short that I had to abbreviate the lines I wanted to quote. So here's the...

    Mmm...Smooooooooth!!

    Don't ever really have smoothies, but wanted to ditto D'Snowth; that is a great avatar. Good ol' 123 Sesame Street! Edit: Oooh and you pulled a Ziffel on me, Bear! And to think I was that close to doing that to you!

    New movies coming out...

    One upcoming movie that has my attention is this Friday's release of "Elizabethtown". I like fun adventure comedies. Plus, Kirsten Dunst stars in it and I am becoming a real fan of hers. But I now have a second job (part time for now; in addition to my full time job. Eventually should lead into...

    Songs of Joe Raposo

    Yeah that very well could be it. When I saw that title in one of the lists on this thread I thought it was possibly the one that has the word "fancy" throughout. And since you referenced it yourself, I'm thinking it almost certainly is the song. Thanks.

    Woo Hooooo!

    Well as the thread title says, Woo Hooooo! Congratulations on your continuing success, superfan. :)

    Dreams!

    How about this exchange from Abbott and Costello? : Costello: I eat baseball, I drink baseball. All night when I'm asleep I dream about baseball. Abbott: Don't you ever dream about girls? Costello: What and miss my turn up at bat?

    Just need to vent

    You're really a good caring friend to her to feel moved enough by her heartbreak to have this weighing on your heart and to share this with us. That's really nice. I'm sorry for her getting hurt like that. I've heard of other stories where a woman gets involved with a separated but not divorced...

    I'm shutting down KGZ

    Thanks. And Fred, Doris, and Arnold are good Ziffels too. :)

    How's the weather where you are?

    Overcast damp and rather chilly today (highs not much better than 60). Looks like more rain coming tonight and for a few days, with temps in the 60's all week.

    Last movie you watched

    I watched "Hotel Rwanda" (2004) this evening, a true story film about the mass genocide in Rwanda in 1994 that killed almost a million people. Tough film to watch at times, but mainly due to the subject matter and knowing this really happened. It's not real gratuitous; we usually see the...

    How's the weather where you are?

    Boy did it ever rain a lot today here too. Just heard Allentown, PA, which is about an hour and a half north of me, has over 9 inches of rain today! There are accidents and flooding problems all over so it really was a good day for staying inside. And even though the rain is finally moving away...
