RN Alwayz, I know the feeling of sending the DH off for the week. Whenever you're lonely, you know that coming here there are folks all around to help out and offer a shoulder. *HUGZ*

RN Saxy, Thanks! I think I must be having one of those *menopausal* days, sorta like PMS, all BOOHOOEY and crap! All my family lives so far away and it's just me in this town. I have friends, but no one to really hang with and it's me and Spanky my cat. Enough of the pity party for now.

RN, we are looking to buy a washer and dryer for the north house. we looked at a one-piece stackable look front-load washer with electric dryer. we try to order it from sears online but it keeps screwing up. so dh gets on the phone to call a real person. well, they won't deliver this to stores for pick up and they don't deliver to where we live. we tried to see if we could pick it up in merced, modesto, stockton, sacramento, red bluff and redding! none of the stores will accept this item to be turned over to the buyer. huh? how the hell do you buy this item if they won't deliver it to a sears store or your home? want to bet they haven't sold any

Right now I prefer wiener, also, and I intend to go get some, but Juju what the hell you tawking 'bout? You talkin weiner or Wiener? Is it a personal preference or a spelling issue? No hot dogs. Ever. And what about sausages? You are totally hurting the feelings of the entire sausage-eating world by leaving them out of the mix. PS I've met Wiener and I am POSITIVE his hot dogs and sausages are just fine. Not sayin' that I've seen them, I'm just sayin' that I'm sure they're just fine. Ahem. Get your wieners, sausage and Hot DAWGS .

right now, GAL, you've met W-E-I-N-E-R not Wiener. <hanging head and shaking it over this whole mess> unless you go around meeting hot dogs!

LOL, this is such a silly thing!
as fred astaire would say:
potato, potawto, tomato, tomawto, wiener, weiner let's call the whole thing off!

RN, Tabby, if you get a front-load washer/dryer set, you can, depending on the design of the set, stack them on top of each other. Then you have options rather than being locked into a stacking unit AND they're easier to move/ship because they are two separate pieces.

Some of the newer ones are smaller, which is great if you don't have a need for doing large loads all the time. I have a Bosch set that I love. They are much smaller than the Whirlpool or Maytag frontloaders and perfect for my needs.

Anyway, something to think about! :-)

RN GAL, Thank you for the laugh! I'm still laughing about your closet story! Just plain, old hot dogs (or dawgs) with lots of stuff on them (chili cheese dogs are great!). But, positively no weiners or wieners for me!

RN, i sure hope JUJU watched grey's anatomy tonight. they mentioned her at least 50 times :-)
everything was juju this and juju that and one young man with OCD had to say it 30-something times.

Right now I'm waving frantically at Yankee. Hi girl we need to catch up! So the rule is "i" before "e" except after "c." Is there a Weiner/wiener exception to which I've not previously been introduced? Juju, I have in fact met numerous hot dogs. They're usually fun to date, but you wouldn't want to marry them. My advice to Baby is stay away from the hot dogs, they are not marriage material.

RN, let's clear this weiner/wiener thing up! I choose to use, "weiner" because I LIKE it that way! Since it's my favorite silly word, I can make that choice!

http://dictionary.reference.com/help/faq/language/s39.html


Why is weiner a variant of wiener? Why is it weird but not weird? Isn't it i before e except after c? Like most rules for English spelling, there are exceptions, and weiner and weird display this. In school, you heard: Write i before e except after c or when it sounds like an a as in neighbor and weigh. Exceptions include: beige, codeine, conscience, counterfeit, deify, deity, eight, either, feign, feint, foreign, forfeit, heifer, height, heir, heist, leisure, neither, rein, science, seize, society, sovereign, species, sufficient, surfeit, weight, weiner, weird. (And the list goes on!) Why? The rule only applies to digraphs, so words like deity and science do not count. The rule only applies to digraphs that have the /i:/ (ee) pronunciation, as in "piece." The rule does not apply to words that are recent imports from foreign languages, such as gneiss, dreidel, and enceinte. As far as weiner/wiener, "wiener" is the original spelling (c. 1889, from wiener schnitzel) and weiner is an (erroneous) spelling variant (c. 1961), mainly used in North America.

Right now ... I have to go to mediation with my son's father in about an hour. It's not like we haven't been there before, it's just a pain in the butt. Two hours with Nicholas' father is like sticking pins in my eyes!!! Maybe Mocha doesn't do the hugs but I sure could use them!
