Okay, who let the Grouching thread get archived while I was away? Now, it's not considered nice to point blame, but this thread is not about being nice. Lettuce let the blame fall where it may and I am sure we can all agree that it was Fruitbrat and Grooch's fault.

Not having a place to gripe rubs my soft fluffy cuddly fur the wrong way!

We have freaking snow here today! On the Washington coast where it never snows. Yesterday it was 16 degrees Farenheit, 19 this morning. Usual temperature is around 40.

Yay, we had show today!! Oops, wrong thread. I mean, darn, we had snow today. (Oregonfire gets pelted with snowballs for being annoyingly cheerful.)

It is freakin' warm here today and none of my "lighter" clothes fit!!! Grrrr... and boo hiss, I am still ticked off about Billy Graham showing up on my TV instead of Survivor last night, not to mention that I still don't have a VCR and will miss the second episode tonight as well! Oh, and did I mention I am off to take another silly exam in half an hour??

Buttercup laughs at self for being boohissy.

That is a shame about the VCR, Buttercup. I have a new VCR sitting in a storage shed in Mission, TX, and who knows if I will ever be back down there to claim it? We bought it last winter when we went to South Padre and bigdog got laid up for a month with a bad back. Then we left it in Momma's trailer shed thinking we would be back down this winter, but didn't make it, went to Florida instead.

Nice grouching Butter, I knew you had it in you! But not one word about that brutal assault on my person by Grooch? Why if Twigs hadnt come along I might still be laying here. You see, when she smacked me, I fell down! Like Ethan fell down in the truck! Not plopped down, FELL DOWN!

Juju are you griping about your VCR or rubbing salt in Butters wound? Nice touch either way. Now I have to get back to my boiling cauldren of tar; I'm inviting Oregonfire to come up from Corn Valley for a special ceremony in her honor.

I joined a new discussion board (topic, drum corps). Everyone was introducing themselves, along with their drum corps background. Every few posts, the administrator would welcome the newbies. The administrator has posted since my post, and gone on with other subjects! *sniff*

I'm starting to feel invisible!

How's that for whining?

Good work Rabbit. I am innocent. Let's blame Grooch.

I HATE Martin Sheen. He is an arrogant, humorless boob. There.

Those stupid little bangs Mary Hart insists on wearing, with every new hairdo, making it look like the same damn cut she had last time, continue to be a source of irritation. They just sit there hanging off the left side of her forehead.

OK, done.

"Juju are you griping about your VCR or rubbing salt in Butters wound?"

Actually, I was bemoaning that I couldn't get my spare VCR to Buttercup, but those are both attractive alternatives.

Ok, my turn. Argh! Gah!

So, I'm thinking as I read this thread earlier, how nice of a day I was having, and didn't have much to gripe about. Then while working on my website, and trying to load the site, I get a page that says this: The web site you are trying to access has exceeded its allocated data transfer. Visit our help area for more information. Phooey! What BS is that? I'm allowed 15mb, and have uploaded only half that.

Grumble, grumble, grumble.

Marysafan,

I marched in Blue Knights WAAYYYY before anyone knew who they were! I marched 1968-1974, when we scored in the 20's and had a hornline less than 20! I was in the guard (rifle). Our winter guard was World Class, but the corps had a while before it could catch up.

Whose your fav corps? What shows do you go to?

I'd like to gripe that I had to stand out in 25 degree weather for my son's 3 hour baseball practice. I am still frozen. I am mad that I didn't have enough guts to get my child and go home. I think it's ridiculous for 10 yr olds to practice until 9pm on a school night in what felt like artic weather. For some reason ball parks feel about 10 degrees colder than the thinking world. I'm happy he got a good coach but am fearful I will eventually tangle with the wife. I am just not in a mood this year. On a happier note, there is nothing that I would rather do than watch my son play baseball.:)

Why is it that I'm still working at this time of night!!! I'm leaving tomorrow night, and will be gone till late next Saturday or Sunday morning. For some reason my hubby always thinks I'm suppose to have EVERYTHING done, as in "have you got the laundry done...so I don't have wash clothes while your are gone"..."have you got this and that and EVERYTHING DONE". When he left with his friends for a vacation, he didn't do my laundry or anything extra or ahead to make my life easier!!!

OK ok, back to the subject GRRRR, booooo, hissss.
I'm takin a break....He'll never know becauses, HE'S in bed SLEEPING! I'm the one that has to work tomorrow all day and then drive a 13 to 14 hour trip! (OK, mens club, this is not male bashing, this is bashing my husband...I'm allow this time..hehe)

Boy do I sound like I need a vacation or what!!! LOL
Rabbit, how did you know this thread fit me so well today! (now look what you started, LOL)

Thanks Twiggy, it's good someone hears me, I just seem to fall on deaf ears here at home. If you know what I mean.

i hate that with all this bad weather you are all having, that it will be a bad year for the drum crops and the drums will be no damn good.
and i hate that someone made whoami think that she killed another thread( but kinda serves you right for thinking that you can go to any other board beside this one..)

Have no fear, Donut. The musicians union has been discussing subsidizing the drum farmers to ensure planting and continued production of drum crops next year.
The fundraisers have gotten into a good rhythm and have drummed up plenty of donations to the fund. Let's hope that this cymbal of support sticks around.

Whoami, I grew up the Upper Penninsula of Michigan Yes..I am a Yooper...(in reference to the "Toys for Toddler" thread) in a town called Ishpeming. Home of the famous (but now defunct) Blue Notes. Many of my friends were in "the corps" in the late sixties/early seventies era.

I have attended the "Drums across the Midlands" shows in Omaha now that I am living here in the middle of the country. I admire and appreciate all the hard work it takes to pull off those fabulous routines.
