Well thanks Square, maybe we can utilize that area... pump in some new ideas and opinions. I just love talking about my favorite shows. I'll just play it by ear... make some posts to my favorite show threads and see if anyone responds. We might just revitalize that whole area if enough of us post there. Anyone care to join me???

Gen, I didn't take it as a complaint. I knew there was a proper place for Trading Spaces discussions but I must confess I am 29% evil, lol. My bad!

Can I just say THANK you!! Lorry, you started this thread, "can we talk?" and that's what we're doing. It feels safe, and mostly "comfortable". I'm glad others post the links to other wonderful areas of the bb, but Lorry, you are the light shining in this thread.. and I appreciate all who come to talk, and to just share a nice part of thier souls!! Anyway I hate when people get so agressive in thier opinions that they attack others, and not in an open attack, a sneaky way, that puts down YOUR opnion. So I just decided to "lurk" over there!! and realize how much I appreciate what you have done over here Lorry!! (and other posters!!) (and I have emailed mods when I read a direct attack, and it seems to be gone now!!) So, is it Thursday yet???

Wow I just realized that was a rant, I'll have to erase it... Enigma (and others) The DaVinci Code is a fictional mystery (I think you could describe it as Historical fiction, because the author has taken great pains to keep historical facts accurate, there is a thread in the "Library" discussion area here!!) Its become my new obsession!! ABC did a show "Mary, Jesus, DaVinci" in where they explored the DaVinci code premis that Mary was married to Jesus and they had a child. Very interesting. I went out and bought The Gospel according to Mary Magdelene, and another book mentioned on the show. DaVinci is purported to be a part of a 'scion" (not sure if that's correct) that protected a lot of this knowledge, but he left clues in his paintings. For example the painting of the Last Supper, shows a definate lack of people to Jesus' right in such a way that there is a "V" between him and the next person. Specuation, could the next person be Mary (very femanin details on that person) and the V is a definate symbol of females... any way, that's my latest obsession! That and the fact I'm planning a Chicago Gathering of Tvclubhouse posters May 21 - 23!! Anyone want to come???

Thanks Gen & Square. Good info. But I think us folks just want to stay at home here –for now– with Lorry; Reader234, et al. Thanks for the info on The DaVinci Code. I will put it on my 'list.' (Like mysteries...) I missed the ABC show; I saw it listed but thought it might be a 'dud,' so I watched someting else...

I'm just giving this a push up in case any of us wish to discuss something off topic... like our ingrown toenails, capal tunnel syndrome or those damn freezing waiting rooms where they isolate you from everyone, take away your clothing and expect you not to freeze your tail off waiting for the doctor to see you.... hehehehe Or anything else... lol

Lorry, I've got to tell you about the most embarrassing waiting room experience I ever had. It happened when my former husband and I were stationed in Germany, and I went to a civilian gynecologist in Augsburg. I was sitting in the waiting room, and the nurse called my name. Nothing unusual about that. I was taken into a room and told to remove my clothes. I looked around for the paper gown, and I asked the nurse about the paper gown. "What paper gown?" was her response. So, I took off my clothes and she watched, then I was told to leave my clothes and my purse and follow her. She went to the door to the hallway and I followed her wearing nothing but a huge blush (on all my cheeks!). I walked behind her THROUGH the waiting room full of patients and their husbands! I thought I was going to pass out! I went in to the examination room and there was the doctor waiting for me. I got my examination, and then got to walk back through the waiting room so that the other patients could see me from EVERY angle! That was my first and absolutely last visit to a civilian doctor when I was in Germany! LOL!

Good Grief Gemma!!!!! I would have tripped over all the parts that are now well below my knees when not in their appropriated slings...and have fallen right smack dab in the middle of the waiting room with my big ol' rear end stuck in the air!!LOL God Bless ya', you've got more spunk than I do!

Gemma, if you had gone again, you could have taken masks and blindfolded everyone in the waiting room. Note: I turned my tv on a about 3:45 am this past Thursday morning. CBS was showing a repeat of the previous weeks Survivor (3:30 to 4:30am) It was not on the CBS scheule. (Just in case anyone cares, I like to work between 3 & 9 am: great time to get things done: quiet, no phone, et al.) Have taken on more work than I can handle. Will probably not be able to post for next few days (O.K.? Lorry.)

Gemma, the obvious solution would have been to cover your face with a towel so no one would have known you!! ROFL

I seem, since the change in my meds, to be waking up around 3 AM... so I definitely will check out the TV... I'd love a chance to view the show alone... without disruptions. Thanks for the "heads up" about you being gone from the boards... hurry and get your work done... we miss you already Enigma!!!

Well, no 3:30am Survivor repeat today. Guess last week was a one-shot deal. If I don't get back here, happy 'Survivor Thursday' to all

Happy Survivor Thursday to you too Enigma!!! Wow, it's great to be looking forward to another wonderful show. The best part of the show is being able to come here and talk about it with good people and friends. I will be busy with family tonite... darn..hehe but be assured, I will be thinking about you all while watching the show... and if our Rupert goes.. well, we still have good people left to enjoy... and you know, we have not seen the last of Rupert.... hehe... another season lies ahead with our favorite pirate. Later alligators...

Did anybody else find it hard to watch the snake swallow the iguana? Does anybody know what kind of snake it was? I wonder if the iguana was supposed to represent Rupert.

Hi Reader 234, hope you are feeling better after the episode. I am hypoglycemic/diabetic too and those attacks are totally debilitating, they weaken me for a day or two afterward. Hard to be keep balanced and lead any kind of active life.

Dogdoc I didnt watch it and I thought it was inappropriate. I got the analagy of snake in the grass and they could have stopped at the first bite. I dont watch Survivor to see the laws of the jungle played out, except when it comes to the human element.

Am still overloaded w. work, but had to come here and say: HAPPY THANKSGIVING (to all my buddies here) As I envision all of those turkey carcasses taking up too much room in refrigerators across this land, I feel at one with my fellow country-men.

LOL Enigma!! All is ok here!! Signs of the cold (please, not the flu!!) are erupting!! I think it has to do with survivor on Wed, I sat there at 7pm Thursday thinking out loud, its "Survivor Thursday" this is just so wrong! (ds, and dh just laughed at me!!)

Reader: Gee, I hope you get to feeling better fast. I am diabetic, among other health issues, and a cold is the last thing I need... so I can certainly sympathize. Have you tried that Zicam stuff yet? I've heard it really does help with the symptoms. I sure hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday. I ate waaaaaay too much!!!

Nobody's been talking for quite awhile!! I imagine that's a good thing! I'm wrapped up in real life, finally feel stable, and healthy!! That dizzy sugar stuff gets to me!! The doctor thought I was od'ing on BANANAS!! yeah right, well when I finally stopped eating bananas, (amongst other salty foods!) the world stopped trying to spin!! I feel so much better now!! I cant believe Survivor is almost over!! I love some of the speculation, I cant wait to watch it play out in the live show!! I couldnt believe Christa in her chat, I think I just come from such a different place than her experiences (young!) I was interested in reading that the outcast didnt bother them.. I thought that was a huge factor! What do I know?!!
