| I miss the activity on the board during this time of night. It's already 5:50 a.m. EDT. Where is everyone? | |

| Just getting up to walk the dog, or rather being rousted from sleep by the dog who says 'hey man, it's light outside, let's get going!' I won't turn on the computer until 7am or so. | |

| Natalie, you're hilarious.
I've tried reading accounting and tax stuff at 5:50 in the morning before. It just doesn't work. It would be like reading Kapingamarangi at noon (a language I don't speak, by the way). | |

| Natalie, I believe that I got up to go wee about 5:50 a.m. But then I went back to bed. to me, those ARE the 'wee' hours. | |
| 19 June 2009 | |
| Kevin, a good urologist can help you with those kinds of "wee" hours. | |
| 19 June 2009 | |
| so can a box of depends, but it's my own fault for having a glass of scotch before bed | |
| 19 June 2009 | |
| Too many nights like that, and you may need a hepatologist instead. | |
| 19 June 2009 | |
| and I had already wasted so much money on the mattress climatologist's fee! | |

| Seriously, Kevin, having had a BPH operationv[aka the 'roto rooter'] in 2006, Jerry's advice is very good. What I remember is the wee hours, or trips where I could not wait to find a "Men's" and barely made it when I come across one, then one day it all stopped.....literally, and I ended in the ER where I met a catheter. I tell that story and all go "oooooh, ugh" but believe me, it felt wonderful. | |

| If you wee into the wii, it won't work.
and my guess is that you're the 5th little piggy who went 'wee wee wee' all the way home. | |

| Budgetary concerns are cutting down on internet prattle! The Great Recession has moved some to turn off their machines for the first time in years.
It is reported that the "stars" on the TV show "The View" are burning candles at night instead of running the electricity, and bragging about it on their show. A woman I know actually had to speak to her husband last month (they are now seeking divorce by mutual agreement). Children are realizing for the first time that they actually have parents... and of course, they hate them. A minister actually found people in the pews this week who were not there to scrounge up business! If you hear your doorbell ring... it's Avon, actually calling! lol. People in Hawaii are moving to the mainland to have someone to talk to after work. It's a big mess, with no relief in sight. | |
| June 20, 2009 | |
| Well, I'm not moving to the Mainland. And Kevin, you should be the first one to guess the answer. | |
| 21 June 2009 | |
| well, if you're not the 5th little piggy, you're your youngest son Orion, who I can picture weeing into the wii. | |
| June 22, 2009 | |
| No, Kevin. We don't own a wii, and Orion is the oldest. And I'm actually surprised you haven't gotten it yet. | |
| 22 June 2009 | |
| Mario of Mario Brothers fame would be my guess, Natalie. That's because Super Mario Galaxy is the only game my daughter plays constantly on the Wii.
Or a leprechaun. I know why you don't want to move to the Mainland as well. Who would dare want to leave that tropical paradise you live in and sometimes complain about?! Especially, when it gets down to a bone-chilling 60 degrees above zero?! BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Tom | |
| June 22, 2009 | |
| Oh, you finally got it Kevin!
Tom, my mom sent me a real nice shawl that I can use on those cold nights, so I'll be set for next winter! | |
| 22 June 2009 | |
| Gee, I put too much thinking into that one. Orion, Galaxy, wee, Mario, Wii...
My brain was on overload. As to that shawl Natalie, I actually could use that out here. I didn't realize besides heat, cold is also unfriendly to me now as well! So, the only two seasons I can stand are fall and spring. Tom | |
| June 22, 2009 | |
| Well, Tom, what are your favorite colors? I'll see if my mom can get one of those shawls for you. | |
| 22 June 2009 | |
| Please I don't want her to go out of her way for me, Natalie
(Psssst: Blue and green are my favorite colors).

| (Oh shoot, I have to stop this late night game playing. I was just cracking myself up, and my youngest came in to see what was going on.) | |
| 24 June 2009 | |
| (not that there is any requirement to explain anything to Asa, children do tend to be curious by nature)
you could still be me | |

| Don't feel bad, Natalie. The other day, my 8 y/o daughter came in and watched me type my last response. She was correcting my spelling as I typed. Needless to say, it was quite embarrassing, but amusing as well (Her: "Daddy, that red underline means it's spelled wrong." Me: "DON"T YOU THINK I KNOW THAT!").
PS - Only kidding. I didn't react that way. Tom | |
| June 24, 2009 | |
| Tom, I didn't really feel bad. It's just that it was really pretty late, and I was laughing so hard, my son thought I might be crying.
Anyway, Kevin, yes, you are correct again. You have to come to Hawaii to claim your prize. | |
