Amazing the relief those alternative phrases give isn't it?Timpane wrote:I splashed warm grease on my hand while producing potato chips, it took a long time to heal. I said a couple of alternative phrases, the pot and the grease had some new names.

I did the exact same thing a while back while making french fries. I had an ugly hand for a long time. I also gave the pan and grease some colorful new names, too colorful to mention here.

I am concerned about my dog. She hasent been doing too good the last couple of weeks, I found her a few minutes ago lying on the floor, her eyes shut and hardly breathing. I think she is dying. Probably wont last the night. But she is very old, 21 years. I put her in her box and tried to make her comfortable and I have a hole dug for her final resting place. She was a good dog, I will miss her.

And boy, at least she lived for a good 21 years. A real tear jerking comment you put there, may she rest in peace.

My Lord, Bighuey, that must have been quite as scare .... so glad it wasn't more serious, the forums really wouldn't be the same without you & your entertaining posts.Bighuey wrote:This was yesterday but I had one hell of a scare. I was in the bedroom and I heard a POP! in the front room and started smelling smoke, thought this old shack was burning down. It was a power surge, luckily most of my stuff in on surge strips, and the only thing that got fried was my microwave and 2 of the surge strips. Those things really stink when they blow. I can still smell the smoke. The microwave is no big deal, you can get them here for about 10 bucks. But it was scary.
