I was just watching The Fairly Oddparents cartoon this morning. In this episode, Timmy wished for a big brother. The big brother couldn't remember Timmy's name and kept caling him silly little brother nick names like "half pint" and "champ." But one of the other names he uses is "Scooter!"

Well after all, it is a "cute...cute name!"

Well, Amanda doesn't have to worry, because you can't make carbon out of ashes. Thankfully, or Erin probably would have stole them months ago.
Oh, stop. :smile:

If I were really going to steal the ashes, I wouldn't have advised Amanda to keep an eye on them, now would I? I was just worried that some other fan would take the ring idea a step too far...

Let's see...a deranged fan stealing the cremated remains of someone...would that be kleptomania or necrophilia or what? Something or other, I don't know.

I wouldn't go so far as necrophilia...I'd probably just call it very very sick!

I think it'd just be plain creepy and weird. Plus, aren't the ashes spread across the home in New Jersey, like she said? Or did they keep any. Why are we talking about this!!?

Yeah really, lol. We do actually want Amanda to come back here! hehe


Omg, I wanted to share something I just noticed. I recently purchased the Sesame Street DVD "Sing Along." I believe it was made in 1987. Biff and Sully are busy fixing a TV. At the end, a pole nearly falls on them.

One of the kids yells, "And you call yourself a repair man?!" Biff (Jerry Nelson of course) responds, "No, a Republican! I call myself a Republican!" LOL, I was like "What? He said that?! lol"

Nice ad lib, Jerry!

Ha! Wooooonderful conversation, y'all.

That's great, heralde! That sounds really cute. Jerry's awesome. Ya know, I've never seen Biff and Sully before, but I do love them Richard/Jerry matchups like that.

Yeah I like their pairings too. I don't remember a lot of Biff and Sully, just the basics. That they were construction workers, and Sully couldn't speak (or didn't speak, not sure). I like their song where they sing about how they could have been doctors or movie stars, but someone has to build the buildings! That's a nice thing to tell kids, that all jobs are important.

Richard and Jerry were great paired up, especially in music numbers because they both had great vocal talents.

Oh, BTW, changing the subject just a little, Steve irwin's funeral went well. it was quite sad and emotional, really. And his daughter Bindi read out this touching tribute she wrote. :cry:
It was held at the 'Crocseum' -or something like that- which is up north in Queensland in the Australian Zoo. It feels sorta strange beause I was there at the beginning of this year, watching Steve wrestle a croc live. People rully do miss him, he may have been a bit of a fruitcake at times :smile: but he was good, the way he bought land for the animals and things. Well, only the good die young, i guess. :sympathy:

Thanks for sharing that with us, Kiki. It's clear Steve meant a lot to Australia.

I did have a question, Kiki, what does the phrase "It's Sydney or the bush" mean? I know it's Australian.
