Morning Pan, the wind is howling and the rain is on the way, but at least the laptop is keeping my hands warm.
Two DP episodes in the same week…/faints in shock
The music got the foot tapping this morning
Glad to hear it, Van 🙂
Thx

Yo. happy Thursday / new Deadpan day / Turkey day 08 bitches!
breast,
your smarty hotties:
andrea, hugh, stephanie, sam, and jennifer
I caught up on the comments.
Am tired now. I was way back there.
Morning, Deadpan! I’m up early at my folks’ house, heading to the hot tub. In other words, roughin’ it.
Morning Pan!
Enjoy your turkey US Panites!
WE have a very strong frost today. My hubby almost couldn’t get the screen door open
Quite mild today on this side of the pond.
Here’s a question. Why is it called “a pond”? A pond is something small. Maybe with a few coy in it. Not a big frikken huge body of water 🙂
coy = koi (so I can’t spell)
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
I never equated interviews with sex before. I must be doing them wrong.
Still waiting for that CD release, Jack.
Actually Jack, you need to come up here. I think it would be interesting to hear you and my husband play together.
I think I need to do an interview… or something 😉
Happy Thanksgiving all. Hopefully everyone is able to find something this year that they can be thankful for.
Try not to eat too much today 🙂
Just remember to all those eating a traditional Thanksgiving meal – you are what you eat 😆
Don’t get too addicted to Thanksgiving left overs, otherwise you might have to quit cold turkey.
Time for bad Thanksgiving jokes:
What did the mother turkey say to her naughty son?
If your dad could see you now, he’d turn over in his gravy!
The football team had just finished their daily practice session when a large turkey came strutting onto the field. While the players gazed in amazement, the turkey walked up to the head coach and demanded a tryout. Everyone stared in silence as the turkey caught pass after pass and ran right through the defensive line. When the turkey returned to the sidelines, the coach shouted, “You’re terrific!!! Sign up for the season, and I’ll see to it that you get a huge bonus.” “Forget the bonus,” the turkey said, “All I want to know is, does the season go past Thanksgiving Day?”
If the Pilgrims were alive today, what would they be most famous for?
Their AGE
the local police arrested a turkey the other day. They suspected fowl play.
Why do turkeys always gobble?
Because nobody taught them good table manners.
Ok, I’m done.
Phew!
I’m reminded of that joke.. what would Elvis Presley say if he was alive today?
Well I’m amazed at the restraint..TEB invites Jack up to play with her hubby and nobody makes a gutter comment.
cough.
So think I will be eating light tonight compared to US DP contingent, just a couple of soft boiled eggs and toast. There will be no soldiers.
CW:Latest Pushing Daisies episode
Just wanted to proclaim my best wishes to the Deadpan on this U.S. holiday!
Special guest appearances by the Smarty Hotties & Co. and Nomad!
Even TEB was being coy. 😉
Take care everyone.
Wow, I never anticipated so much activity on T-Day! Rock on. I hope everyone is enjoying the day.
I believe TEB also invited me up for an interview ;). ahem. Thanks about the music. What instruments does Mr. Bunny play? If I ever find my way to Alberta, I’ll be sure to bring a guitar. And a space heater.
He plays the guitar, also. You wouldn’t need to bring one though, Jack. We’ve got more than one (I think six was the last count if you include the electric bass and 2 acoustics).
Space heater?
We also have a guest room with a (semi) private washroom to save on pesky hotel costs. 🙂
Just got back from the doctors. I was put on new meds about three months ago. I think this is the first time I’ve ever had a (close to) normal report. We were both very happy.
I brought the laptop and iPod with me and listened to the Deadpan sex-erview during my three hour tour to Grandma’s house this morning.
Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone. 🙂
w00t for the good report, TEB 🙂 And thanks for the invite. That sounds like the guitar collection in Spinal Tap. . . all he needs are amps that go to 11. Your hubby is welcome to contribute his own recordings to Deadpan.
Thanks, Cj! Best T-Day wishes to you and the family.
OK, I’m off to Charlie the Beer Guy’s Turkeypalooza.
Back from MA. I’m testing for my yellow belt on Saturday, so I was really put through my paces this evening.
And yes, Canada can be cold but, believe it our not, we don’t live in igloos, and we have central heating systems in our homes, so you don’t need to bring your own heater 🙂
Everybody must be out eating turkey.
I have met the turkey and it has been eht.
sleeeepy now
A successful thanskgiving for once.
Though I’m still rather shocked my wife told my mother and grandmother we broke our bed during really rough sex.
Good luck with the yellow belt test TEB.
Dub, I’m reminded of a certain scene in Pulp Fiction..way too much information.
Morning Pan, cold hands again, this is becoming a trend.
Just watched some Pulp Fiction at Charlie’s. Good beer, good food, good conversation. I’m thankful every year to not be Jim Ignetowski.
Today’s strangeness:
An elderly woman cheerfully telling me she off to arrange her funeral.
Today’s strangeness:
An elderly woman cheerfully telling me she off to arrange her own funeral.

Wow, it’s the post thanksgiving deadpan desert.
Now which song to serenade the tumbleweeds..so many choices…
How about, Tumbling Tumbleweeds?
Morning Van. Morning Pan.
I just attended my very first Black Friday sale. I have satisfied my morbid curiosity and will never do it again. A woman was bleeding (not my fault.)
They were sold out of my coveted item by the time I shimmied my way through the mass of crazy people to get to the back of the store.
I was so pissed off that I bought the last Baby Alive just so nobody else could. That made me feel better and my daughter will love it.
Someone told be it was called Black Friday because this is the day when the store’s bottom line goes into the black. After that story CJ, I’m more inclined to think it’s actually short for “black and blue Friday” which is what you’ll be if you try to shop on it 😉
Busy day for today. Besides it being month end at work, I have my normal Friday stuff:
Clean the upstairs bathroom
Go shopping
Bake cookies (the cookie of the week will be Lemon Almond)
Plus, my MA is having their year end party tomorrow, after testing. It’s pot luck. I’ll be making fudge today to bring.
In the UK the equivalent are the boxing day sales. Utter madness and hopefully I will miss them again this year.
So has the black belt guy backed off from you TEB?
Van, I have the feeling Master Park has said or done something (maybe asked him to come on different days?). While he used to attend every class I did (Monday, Thursday and Saturdays), he has not been in any of these classes since I’ve been back from World Fantasy. I know he’s been attending other days as some of the other students have mentioned him. I know it seems vain to think his schedule has changed because of me, but it still seems a little strange from always being with me to never being with me without some sort of intervention.
All the same, it is more comfortable, now.
Hello, Pan! My mad end-of-NaNoWriMo rush started yesterday. Wrote 6,000 words in a day yesterday for the very first time, going for 10,000+ words today. Off to write.
Darn Americans and their holidays that don’t match ours! Work is not “working” as I need some info from a US branch.
Go Go Amy!
I now have a headache for you just thinking of doing 6000 in one day.
I think we all need a “I survived Thanksgiving” shirt. 😉
I survived the US Thanksgiving?
Well I’m off to see Quarantine. Not so keen on horror but the good reviews have tempted me….yeah yeah I know it’s been out in the US for ages but some moves take a while to cross the pond.
Woah, Van. 92% match on the movie thing. Great minds and all that.
Note to self-Must watch Grosse Point Blank this weekend.
Just remember to switch to pears TEB.
cough
Will that have the reverse of the apples?
Maybe if I just “cough” it would have the same effect. 🙂
I need to watch GPB sometime after December 1.
2,655 words so far today. Taking a lunch break, then getting back to the writing.
Good going Amy!
TEB – sorry about the mismatched holidays. What do you need? Will any American do? ;}
Happy post Turkey day! I’m posting from my folk’s computer in central Kansas. Damn it’s cold here. LOL Ditto is as super cool as I expected. We had a really nice chat. Hopefully there will be more in the future. 🙂 Also, thanks for the latte ditto.
Just got back from the grocery store.
Van, guess what. I bought oranges! 😆
J0e, I don’t know. Can you give me the codes and authorization to to a $1.5m wire transfer?
Halooooo! Where is everybody?
Bathroom cleaned. Lunch eaten. Now to make cookies.
Quaratine was ok, predictable and not scary at all.
I’m sorry to hear that, Van. I don’t do scary movies as a rule. I go once a year with my daughter, but that’s it. Then she usually laughs at me because I jump at everything.
Well, I’m glad to see that all have apparently survived Thanksgiving. We had a good one with my family. The wife and I did go out this morning for the running of the bulls. There was nothing out there this year that I felt was really worth camping out for and things were pretty orderly at the places we went. I think at this point its more of a bonding experience for us than it is about scoring some mega deal.
Though, I think I can hear my scale cringing in anticipation of my return home tomorrow. It will not be a happy meeting.
You’re not supposed to count calories during the holiday’s Ed. It’s supposed to be one of the many things you are on holiday from.
First batch of cookies are in the oven and the dishes are done. Will start on the fudge after both batches of cookies are done.
Glad to see that everyone’s T-Day went well. I’d always thought Black Friday had been named by retail employees, because of the horrors faced on this day (I worked many Black Fridays at Sam Goody in the mid-90s). There was never any blood, although I recall a few occasions when there should have been.
I’m going to continue to do some things around here and laze for a bit – but I expect we’ll see 112 in a few hours.
Well that’s a relief, I can stop hitting the refresh button on my browser every 5 minutes.
There, cookies are done and fudge is setting. Now I have to do some work 🙁
So it appears if you want to live longer, you need to eat food that contains a higher amount of ‘heavy’ water.
Are there more calories in heavy water? (kidding 🙂 )
I haven’t read the full article yet, but it appears that ‘heavy’ water is better at eliminating free radicals in the body, FRs have been implicated in the aging process.
There’s this green tea they have at the downtown office. I love it simply because it says on the package “prevents free radicals”
I always find that statement amusing.
You get what you give
Well, Van. It looks like it’s mostly you and I on the board today. People must be too overcome with turkey.
If you’re alone in a cold climate, will you become ice-olated?
Maybe things will come alive once they pop the alka seltzer.
Here’s a silly question. I know why US and Canada celebrate Thanksgiving. Since England is more of an original, not a colony, do you have a similar holiday?
Well it’s related to harvest festivals..which are mostly irrelevant for people who live in urban areas.
So the answer would be a no. In terms of families getting together for a big meal, it’s really only the Christmas holiday.
Ah, thanks.
Of course I can’t speak for everybody in the UK.
Oh, come on Van. You can speak for all to me. 🙂
Yes Van, we also need tyou to speak for everyone in Belgium.
Only if it’s Tuesday, Jack.
Another 10c to the Adams estate.
Hubby home. Gotta go get ready for company and gaming tonight!
Well time for me to call it a night. I shall have to stream 112 to my phone tomorrow.
Night Pan.
Have fun, everyone. Sorry for the extra day’s wait, Vanamonde. In the meantime, here is my blahblahFish creation (thx for the link, Bunny):
Sufficiently it is sufficient! It was that of the snake of these motherfuckin of the plane surface of this motherfuckin in me
OK, now to edit.
Sorry for the delay TEB.
Just checked through my desk drawer and couldn’t find the codes for a 1.5m transfer. 🙁
The best I could do is the codes for $2.29, $4, and $12.50 (U.S.). Oh, and of course the LAUNCH codes which are given out to every American.
Just in case.
Just returned home from the Merry Main Street Festival in Safford, AZ. More exciting is the fact that I just discovered Mork and Mindy Marathon on Sci Fi!
