(I think we stopped the 10 incriments at 40?)

2) I'm really glad people keep this list alive it's the highlight of my days

3) I absoultely love Men In Black II - very very good movie.

4) I have dolphin 'curtains' (towel & shower curtain) on my windows - during the day it looks like I have two huge fishtanks. At night it looks to the outside like I have two huge fishtanks.

5) I have several boxes of XMas decorations but haven't had energy to put them out.

6) I do have my fiberoptics tree up though - beautiful.

7) Took this job last year to keep from gaining weight - haven't gained any so that's good.

1. My cousin is on his way from the airport in a yellow taxi.
2. I am so nervous about everything being perfect for his visit that I had to run here and try to work out my anxiety before his arrival.
3. Everything that happens on our visit will be relayed with embellishments to the grapevine.
4. Our plans for the evening are New York pizza and the Survivor finale.
5. I'm being nervous over my own insecure fears that my paternal side of the Family always seems to know how to tap into.
6. He's the baby of our generation.
7. I am so happy about his visit no matter how whiney and unappreciative I may sound, because his presence in my home is the best present that I could receive.
8. I have to do 10-15 minutes of Tai Chi.
9. This forces my breath to be smooth and even, and it influences how my train of thought works.
10. I think Twinkie's home is dreamy.

1. I have to honestly say that when I read that Zachsmom was nervous and was going to change her locks today, I thought she was getting a new hairdo.
2. After reading it more closely, I realized what she meant.
3. Now I'm worried about her and encourage her to change those locks post haste.
4. I have recurring dreams about tornadoes.
5. I'm glad Spygirl is through the worst of them for today.
6. DW and I are taking the kids to see Santa this afternoon.
7. I think if we really wanted to see a Square/Fanny, we'd just have to ask Spongebob to bend over. He's not wearing square pants for nothing, folks!
8. I only started watching this season of TAR about 3 weeks ago, but I was sick of Flo right after she opened her mouth the first time.
9. I'm going to see the new Star Trek movie on Christmas night, and with a friend I haven't seen in a couple of years.
10. I'm terrible at wrapping presents, and I haven't started yet.
11. Whenever I find out that someone has served in the military, I make sure to thank them.
12. I'm the person in my office who everyone comes to with questions.
13. They're doing it again, so I'm glad I'm done with this list!

3. Now I have to double check to make sure I didn't make any mistakes in my haste.

4. I've lived though a tornado, flood and a church fire where I was the last one in the church before the fire broke out...thankfully I had taken my guitar and music with me. The pizza's for the choir party were still safe in the freezer.

6. There is actually a company in Cedar Rapids, Iowa that specializes in restoring smoke/water/fire damaged pianos and organs.

7. My choir will ROCK on Christmas Eve...a rousing Caribean Christmas tune with percussion.

8. I will have to practice the piano, as it is FAST and gospel-like accompaniment.

9. I can't believe that whiney Flo won the Amazing Race!

10. I lover Twinkie's house and hope to see it in January!

11. I'm glad that Spy is out of the tornado closet, too!

12. When I first moved to PA from the tornado belt, I went to the basement everytime the sirens went off, not knowing that they go off for fire, rescue squad and at appointed times during the day.

13. I was in the basement quite a bit!

14. It's going to be almost 50 degrees here today!! WHOO HOO!! No coat.

15. I own a mink cape that I bought for $35 at a consignment shop in Illinois...what the heck, the animals already died for someone else.

OK Moon. How does your mom cure your hiccups over the phone?

Signed,

Curious

P.S. Whit, and what is your methodology?

Moondance

Thursday, December 19, 2002 - 03:25 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
I say, 'Mom I have the hiccups'

She says. 'OK then lets count them ... go ahead ... count them... I don't hear them ... go ahead hiccup!'

I swear it works every time and I am learning to do it myself ... it's some sort of secret intimation LOL She does it to her second graders... works EVERY time:)

I now get them and I go to dial the phone and they disappear!

You think I'll share my secrets? LOL

No really anyone can do it if you do it RIGHT.

First you have to do this BEFORE they hiccup again... and you can't let up

"Let me hear you hiccup..come on hiccup for me..well? Hiccup! Come on hiccup......"

No pauses....you can actually cure your OWN hiccups this way if you do it right..lol.

This will not work for really small kids (5 or under..) or for anyone really drunk... but works for everyone else :)

They TRY To hiccup and can not do it :)

My mom cured MY hiccups by scaring me (it always worked) but I like my method better lol.

1. I just got back from shopping at the Mall with my the deejay daughter.

2. I am still sick and I have a bad case of the sniffles.

3. I am very tired, but happy.

4. ALL my shopping is done!

5. The deejay daughter is an ACE shopper and we were able to find the perfect gifts for hubby and our friends in New Jersey at GREAT prices.

6. She would be a wonderful personal shopper for someone and I would HIGHLY recommend her.

7. Nothing gets me in the shopping mood like Jose' Feliciano's Feliz Navidad.

8. My best friend in New Jersey is a retired Fire Chief...I found the greatest T-shirt for him that is for a "Vintage Fireman"....and says..."The older I get ...the braver I was."

9. He is either going to laugh right out loud or he is going to kill me when he finds out what I got his 16 year old son who also wants to be a fireman someday.

10. It is a CO-ED Naked Firefighting shirt and the message is rather riske'.

11. The deejay daughter talked me into it...but I still think I may be in trouble with the parents...but the boy is gonna love it!

12. I am taking a few minutes to rest before I start to wrap these gifts that have to be in the mail tomorrow.

13. I like wrapping gifts at Christmas time.

14. I have a standing agreement with the deejay daughter that I wrap her gifts first and anything left that I dont' get to she will do for me.

15. I wish I could get her to help me decorate the tree!

16. I shouldn't go into book stores...my packages are always so heavy when I come out.

17. I bought two books for myself..I couldn't help it..they were screaming at me with those bargain prices!

18. They were such bargains that I don't even feel guilty about it.

19. The books are NASCAR realated...I bet the folks in the "Library" would get a kick out that! lol! I can just see Seamonkey scratching her head...giving me a very confused look!

Well since I have time to kill avoiding the rest of the board so as not to be spoiled - want the finale to be a suprise... I'll go again :)

Lemme see....

1) I've wore out so many keyboards it's unreal - over a dozen at least.

2) Current keyboard has the A N L S T and I wore off

3) I wish Phatcat would post more facts her list was awesome

4) I can't figure out where Azriel is moving?

5) I've though of a good middle name for BigD :)

6) I wish Jewels would post and tell us how the baby is doing - I'm sure she's tired though

7) I'm wondering about Cyn's father - how long he's been blind etc...

8) Wondering if DJ got her piano and if she's known how to play a long time or ?

9) Wondering how Webkitty's yardsale went?

10) Wondering if I have just missed the answers to these questions?

11) Wondering if Wargod still has Ronald McDonald orange hair?

12) Wondering what in Meggie's ad caught her future hubbies eye....

13) Wondering about alot of things I guess :)

14) Wondering how long ago this thread would have died had we not worked out the kinks and settled on 20...(I can't iamgine many going for 59 facts...

15) Wondering if 2003 might be the best year for me in over 7 years.

16) Wondering when I'll have a GOOD year again...

17) Wondering if I should try to quit smoking since I basically don't like cigs anymore - could be easy

18) Wondering if I'll gain 40 lbs if I do quit

19) Thinking of the 10,000+ I would save if I did quit.

20) Thinking of leaving the house before I'm tempted to peek in on the Survivor thread.

1. I have a co-ed naked sailing shirt that I wear a lot from a sorority/fraternity mixer in college. It says, "Co-ed Naked Sailing: The Rougher the Ride, the Wetter it Gets". We got in a lot of trouble from our faculty advisor for that one
