for Eeyores

Eeyores.. I once had a palindromic address: 15851; of course I don't think I knew what that was when I was 5..

Rupertbear, I also see 11:11 (a.m. or p.m.) on a regular basis. It drives me crazy that I can even wake from a sound sleep on the couch and see it. I did read somewhere a year or so ago, that it has some meaning, but unfortunately I can't recall it right at the moment. I think it's scarey! It has happened to me for probably 25 years or so. I used to think (shudder) that it meant that I would die at 11:11.

return to your regular discussion now and pay no attention to the crazy lady behind the curtain

Hukd, I've never heard of a meaning behind that, but every time we see it's 11:11, we always have to say "It's one one one one!"

cries because Halfunit poked me right smack in the eye

Don't Google 11:11 unless you want to be spooked. Wish I hadn't...

I have always had a fondness for 11. We lived in apt. # 11 when I was younger. I lived in a bldg with the street number 111 when I was older, and I was 11 when I was put into the fostercare system (THAT is a coincidence...) The number seems to follow me around. I hated being 20/30/40/50/ But enjoyed 21/31/41/and am looking forward to 51 next month. I guess its the getting used to a new decade, that does me in each time. LOL.

As for yesterday's question... my mom named me Joyce cuz its the English translation of HER mother's name which actually translates to Happiness. Anyhow, my dad wanted to name me Regina, but my mom thought it sounded like a female body part... LOL, then he explained it meant royalty, a queen. So my mom, ever the UNsophisticated creature that she is, God love her, decided to simplify it to Queeny. I agree with Joan Rivers, when she says that the Royal family are going to the dogs with names like Queenie, Duke, and Prince. LOL. Mind you I am not a Gina, and can't see myself being called Reggie either... LOL so my middle name sucks no matter how you slice it.

The number 27. As for who I was named after....Not sure exactly. My full name is Carolyn (Everyone calls me Cally though) and Carolyn is the female version of Charles. My middle name is Rose and that was after my Paternal Great Grandmother.

Good morning TVCHers!! Yippee, it's Friday!!! It's going to be a gorgeous weekend here with highs in the 50's! Woohoo! Finally spring is coming. :-)

Lots of favorite numbers yesterday, and lots of interesting reasons for them. One thing I did notice was that a bunch of you think 13 is lucky. Hmmm...just as I was typing that my clock turned to 8:13am. <insert twilight zone music>

Ok, today's question is: Do you have and use caller ID?

My answer is yes.

Yes and I hate when it says private number! I have been getting ones lately that say 1-999-999-9999 lately but they never leave a message.

No and no - and while were on the subject I don't particularly like it.


I suppose I will be in the minority probably.

No I don't have it. If I don't feel like answering the phone at that time, I just don't pick it up. My family knows this and if it is an emergency, they know to call me right back a second time and I will answer the phone.

Other than that, I just can't think of anyone that I dislike so much that I wouldn't want to talk to them.

I don't get nearly as many commerical phone calls as I used too. I know that people using caller ID has helped that. But if I get one I just hang up on them.
