Just as a follow-up to the Red & Blue quiz (which I'm still not sure what the point of that quiz was...what's it mean to be red versus blue?) here is another site that I kind of liked cause it tries to match you up with the candidate that best represents your feelings on the "ISSUES." I haven't t

On Slate on MSN today there is an interesting little quiz, "Red or Blue—Which Are You?" I took in in the hopes that it will help me define who I am politically. No such damn luck. I came out right in the middle. What does that make me, PURPLE???? <!-- Ju-Anchor-Footer-End

As most of the visitors to my blog already know, I am up to my eyeballs in re-siding our house. This has created several piles of masonite debris that have become home to a robust chipmunk. This past weekend we were working on the north side of the house. This is the side that has our large picture window (yeah, I know...large panes of glass should be on the south

Don't you mean "poem"? Yeah, that too! Pr0n & Pe0m need early warning systems in place.

I totally agree Kayles...also, I'd like advance warning when it's a poem...*shudder*

And I didn't think that my deleting one article would subject me to your wrath! The point was that it was an internal experiment not designed to attract the attention of anyone. Just a sorta "What happens when I push this button?" thing. Honestly I was surprised and even a little flattered that it WAS noticed. It's nice to get feedback on the things I post but I never expect it. So, while I didn't believe that your article was

A while ago there was an article titled "Why would someone delete their own articles?" and still being relatively new to JoeUser I wanted to see what the consequences of deleting an article would be. Would there be a big red "X" announcing to the world that an article had been purposely deleted or would

Good to see you posting again, oleteach! I was afraid that maybe you had left us. I always read what thoughts you choose to share in this forum, although I don't always comment.

This weekend we got one window replaced and the rest of the masonite off that side. We moved out the scaffolding and put some foam up along the bottom in anticipation for the starter strip. SO got the porch light installed on the west side and I finished up the aluminum F-channel for the soffit and the rest of the J-channel for the vinyl on the section of wall aroun

...how i wish i could have seen his face, haha! I think I am a kid person, but when they are rude, and their parents don't seem to do anything about it, it really infuriates me, there are certain levels of basic respect and there's no excuse for not following them! How old are you're kids? If you don't mind me asking! </

Thanks for the suggestion pseudo...but I have to be a little more subtle than that. If they asked what did I mean by my t-shirt I could just say, "This ol' thing? Oh, I just threw it on."

I'll play too. I just finished Firefly by Piers Anthony (just picked that on a whim at the library). So I need something new to read!

Yes rude children...grrr!! They get to me sometimes too. Which isn't too hard cause I'm not a kid person. Generally I don't like any kids but my own. But if they're well mannered and respectful I can deal with them. My neighbor has a gang of kids and they drive me nuts. They come over to my house and start lipping off to me. I asked one to stop stomping on our aluminum soffit that we are trying to install and he said "I can do what I w

I just saw another blog about a user who had a dream and that reminded me that I wanted to start a dream journal. Thanks Pixielust for the memory jog! My dreams have always interested me and even though I can't make heads or tails of them I like to remember them. I've found that if I write them down I will remem

It's after lunch and she hasn't even tried to mail merge. She's just typing labels out by hand. She went whining to our supervisor that I wouldn't do it for her but got absolutely no response from him. He knows better. I told her that if she just clicked Help and typed in Mail Merge it would tell her how to do it. She said, "I'm not smart enough to figure that out." Huh? Not smart enough to know how to click Help? Give me a fricken break. </

I'm in kind of a melancholy mood today. Probably because I don't feel so good. I was up at 4:30 and took a bath, then a shower, loaded up on acetometophin & ibuprofen and was finally able to get back to sleep at 7:50, ten minutes before the alarm went off. Now I know that a lot of you guys, especially the military ones, have already been up and accomplished more befor

hey, I liked Froggy Potions. Don't know what was in them and am probably better off for that. But I remember thinking they were yummy.

Ah, Companions...what a wonderful place...nothing but good memories from there. I think alcohol killed any bad ones. Do they still serve Froggy Potions??? mmmmmmm!

Another good article. Even better than your last one. Next time I'll try to make myself a little clearer. Sorry. Hey, don't over-clarify things! That's what I enjoy about your writing. I have to sit back and think about what you are trying to s
