Don't they though?! I think I'm going to make them. As soon as my diet isn't looking. http://img200.exs.cx/img200/7135/eyebrow1qb.gif

Use the Fat Free cream cheese and turkey bacon. Might not be the exact same, but darned close.

I have to run to a meeting, but I'll be back to play later.

Speaking of food (:rolleyes:) This site was linked to in another thread here, and I've gone through almost all of the recipes so far. Not only do they all sound fabulously delicious, but this lady is hilarious.

Ditto on both those sentiments! :)

The school district Nutrition Center ran a test program at one of my schools today; bringing in a chef to do a demonstration. Of course, I had to get my camera out.

I should've had this shot for this past weekends WWPD! :D (food and drink)

And the test was a smashing success! It was a little tough to get in and get the shots (with a quick edit for obvious reasons).

Distract your diet with a plate of raw broccoli!
Use the Fat Free cream cheese and turkey bacon. Might not be the exact same, but darned close.
That does sound yummy. I guess I am going to have to make it to market

I bet it was a fun shoot, though! what an awesome idea for the school to do. will they follow up with better meals?

WU!!

I was supposed to tell you that Lisa's dress came today, and they sent the wrong one. :rolleyes:

[wu_wei0]

ROFL!! I hope Boopie Bear is in a secure pocket. He mmight need his own chute!

[wu_wei0]

WU!!

I was supposed to tell you that Lisa's dress came today, and they sent the wrong one. :rolleyes:
NO!! That's horrid! I wonder whta they sent. Didn't she order the suit as well as a green sweater and skirt from bloomies?

All of mine arrived. They might even be squeeze-in-able if I avoid the poppers!

I really only have to be concerned about 1 jacket. the rest is fine

[short5]

LOL Dan thanks!! I know not of Boopie, he is a real entity in Wool's life?

[eenorton]

I bet it was a fun shoot, though! what an awesome idea for the school to do. will they follow up with better meals?

I doubt it. :rolleyes: These kids get SO much processed crap! I think they're required to put one piece of fruit on their plates, but most of those just end up in the trash because they're in such a hurry to get outside for recess! :( One of my schools has reversed their schedule and the kids go to recess first and *then* come in for lunch. Not *near* as much fruit and salad and milk gets tossed! I don't know why they don't all switch around to that schedule.

And I saw a special on 60 Minutes or some such program about a principal who took over her school's cafeteria (underprivileged, under performing kids) and got rid of all the junk food and soda pop and the kids grades went up in leaps and bounds!!

I know our school district has some sort of *really* big bucks deal with Coca Cola, to keep their machines in our schools, kids health be damned! :evil:

I guess she ordered a tan jacket with a matching skirt. They sent a tan jacket with a burgundy skirt. It might work after all. I'm supposed to bring it to her.

[Miniflash]

Hi everyone ~
Whats cooking ? lol

[puddlepirate44]

LOL Dan thanks!! I know not of Boopie, he is a real entity in Wool's life?

Actually, that's supposed to be the Chief. :oops: It's hard to tell with all that parachute stuff on.

Boopie (though he did not have a name then) was first introduced here:

http://tuppervilleranch.com/comic-view.php?filename=FFwindowTR.jpg

I'm not too sure if Belmondad has a Teddy or not, but it's fun to imagine....;)

[puddlepirate44]

Permie Update:

Some of you know that Lisa went on a 7 hour whale watching tour through the San Juan Islands today. She just called.....


It was a total bust. Not one whale. Only a couple of Sea Lions and some porpoise, but that's it. She froze her tush off for nuthin'. :evil:

Hi everyone ~

Well, I was hopin' for a Dan-O sandwich... but no bean sprouts. It's just not the same without the bean sprouts. :cry:

Hi beth ~

[wu_wei0]

I guess she ordered a tan jacket with a matching skirt. They sent a tan jacket with a burgundy skirt. It might work after all. I'm supposed to bring it to her.It could work- and she still has time to send it back, if not.

[puddlepirate44]

gah... craptastic :( does she get a refund? :D

Not really, they do stamp her ticket meaning that she can walk on any of their boats for free during the next season... which I believe is Spring/Summer. My mom went with her, and she also got "stamped". She then gave her ticket to Lisa for me to use. Whadda Mom. :D

Dan she doesn't like boats does she?

Not really. But this was the San Juan Islands, so, theoretically, it wouldn't get all up and down like on the ocean. She did get a little ill if she went indoors, but she was fine otherwise. The boat they were on was 110' long. Sounds nice.

Well, I was hopin' for a Dan-O sandwich... but no bean sprouts. It's just not the same without the bean sprouts. :cry:



Bummer. She got spoiled on your last whale trek. :D

You're right about the sprouts, Beth. Sorry.

We did get spoilt on that trip with the Orcas. Definitely a once in a lifetime shoot.

Cwapo:evil: I would go foe the brownie points with hot coco or beverage of her preference. Hot bath with bubbles?

If she were here, that's exactly what I would do. She did say when she called that she was working on a nice big hot Starbucks.

That's my gal!!

[puddlepirate44]

It could work- and she still has time to send it back, if not.

Yeah, that's what I told her. She has another outfit that she could wear, but she had her heart set on this one.

[Maxed Out]

FInished editing my pics....uploading begins:lol:

[cfpackerfan]

Hi everyone ~
Whats cooking ? lol Jalepenos. :lol:

Incidentally, the spell checker doesn't think jalepenos is a word. (It's racist I think), and in the options of 'alternative' choices it gave me, one was 'Pentecostal' and one was 'Penologist' . That is hilarious to me and I don't know why. But I thought you'd all like to know why I'm laughing to myself over here. :lol: :lol:

EDIT: If you spell it correctly: Jalapenos, it gives much better alternative spellings. :lol: :lol: Galapagos, for example. :lol: :lol:

EDIT #2: After a quick google, penologist doesn't mean what I thought it meant. :lol:

[wu_wei0]

Yeah, that's what I told her. She has another outfit that she could wear, but she had her heart set on this one.

It is a gorgeous outfit and looks so classy in the tan. I love mine. She really will hve to return it-- how can we be twins if she doesn't?

[Skrim17]

Beth I so hear you about the schools and food, E's actually is very strict. No soda and no food whose first ingredient is sugar which means no birthday parties at school.

I pack Eli's lunch every day but Friday, he's a painfully healthy eater. Friday they have pizza and salad so I let him eat there. He has never had soda and we try to keep him off refined sugar but that one is a toughie.

Oh, the teachers SO wish they would get rid of the birthday party routine. It's so disruptive...

It's *GREAT* that Eli is a "painfully" healthy eater! :D One of the best gifts you could possibly give him!

Hehehe... yellow water :p

[Skrim17]

the other day he ate half a head of cauliflower for dinner :D

[wu_wei0]

.....

I've seen a number of studies that support wht you said earlier about lunch and grades, etc. It can actually even be done as cheap or more cheaply than traditional trash food. I know school hate to give up the $$ from corps like Pepsi, but there has to be a different way fro them to pull in funds than "poisoning" kids. (somewhat j/k with the use of that term)

Click on it Wusy, its a videoThat was super! Eli looks like he was having fun! I wanna play underwater, too! My tub is too small.

I still think the original frame would make a cool print. :D

[eenorton]

the other day he ate half a head of cauliflower for dinner :D

:lol:

One of the chef's creations was an ice cream cone.... the cone was a BIG (upside down) carrot and the top was cauliflower! :D

[wu_wei0]

quick question-- how do you guys mark your gear for identification in case of loss or theft?

[Skrim17]

Making it fun is half the battle. My little nephew Tommy is a terrible eater, my sil does everything she can think of but he barely eats but 3 or 4 things. She no longer keeps any snack food or cookie type foods in the house so when he asks for the sweets/filler carbs there are none to give.

Wu we have an old DEEP tub with no top drain thing to keep the water from overflowing, it is a great soaker tub!

[Skrim17]

I haven't marked mine, I have heard others talk about writing something inside the battery compartment door.

[Skrim17]

It is such a strange feeling putting a "regular" camera under the water, I keep checking it to make sure it is OK!!

[Skrim17]

I like those Max!! Clay tools?

Looking forward to your shots from tomorrow. Are you out of school for the holiday?

That fiddle player made serious eye contact with me. We had a moment.

OOoooooOOOoooooooooOOOoooo I love moments.

That fiddler sure fits his jeans nicely, Cat. Good one to choose for a "moment!

Uh Huh, he certainly does

My Olympus arrived today!! YAY! Battery is charging. What size card do you use on yours Cat?

Yay!!!

I got T.D.'s package a couple hours ago:

Yay!!!

And hello everyone.

Theague...where you been?

Here is my niece Chloe~Thats my sister with her

That is a great shot, Deb, I love the natural smiles and the crop.

Hullo. I am breaking away from spreadsheets for a few. *brain weeps in gratitude*

Me to getting ready to load new price files. Got so involved, totally forgot I was supposed to call our Orange, CA office to do a training at 3:00 my time. Sales Rep called me at 4:00 thinking he was suppose to call me, but; got delayed by a customer. Whew!! But, now we are rescheduled for Friday, at 3:00 my time...2 hours before I go on vacation I have a training.:rolleyes: At least he is psuedo computer literate.

Just ordered Eli some new tap shoes of course he outgrew his others over the summer, by a full size and width! We signed him up at a new school where there are more boys in the class.

Gotta love those growth spurts. IMHO, guys make better tap dancers than girls, don't ask me why but I've always enjoyed watching the guys better than the girls when it comes to tap. (well other things too, but; we won't go there);)

Awwwwwwwww The Chief has a Boopie Bear. Good for Lois to remember.

I was supposed to tell you that Lisa's dress came today, and they sent the wrong one.

http://performancephoto.us/images/Curtsgallery/OMG.gif

I know our school district has some sort of *really* big bucks deal with Coca Cola, to keep their machines in our schools, kids health be damned!

Our HS got out from under that contract this year. Soda and snack machines are a curse to have ever brought into the schools.

It was a total bust. Not one whale. Only a couple of Sea Lions and some porpoise, but that's it. She froze her tush off for nuthin'.

Yeah, those 2 resident pods are never where they are suppose to be.:rolleyes: I missed them too, when I lived out there. Thankfully the Pudget Sound is much calmer water than what you have in Oregon. (Course she could have gotten some shots of Jelly Fish;))

Click on it Wusy, its a video

Thanks Crissa, I missed that it was a video too. Very cool, I like the goggles in the tub. Reminds me of wearing a scuba mask in the tub back at that age.

G'MAE all, the GND came today along with Curt's flash/light meter thingy. He is in measurbating geek heaven tonight.:D

[Maxed Out]

FIxed them all.....tell me if you cant see them

[Becky N]

does anyone see red x's

cause i do somehow.....

Only one and I couldn't get it to come up when I Right Click and Choose "Show Picture"...have to say, those are some very nice shots. Keep them coming.

[Guineh]

Whoa. It's a special school for kids with swirly faces. :shock:

Hmm. I didn't notice... I had to do a double take, whuddya know, they do have swirly faces..

I take it you're enjoying the new waterproof toy, Crissa? Eventually, when I have the money, I'll get one.

With the money spent on daycare, I could have afforded a couple Lenses at least. Grah...

You are going to love the 2.8 in low light conditions. Do you have any noise removal software? You will need it if you get above 800 ISO, but; it is a great lens for those conditions when you have to shoot at 1600-3200. Actually it is a great lens all around, which is why it is my walk about lens.

The flahers are very nice as well.

Grandmother Update: They had to rush her to surgery late this afternoon. She is doing well. The funny thing (well not really) is this was all caused by a surgery she had when she was 15. HMMM let's think about that for a minute....... She had her apendix (don't you know I can't spell & I know that ain't right) remove when she was 15, the scare tissue from that was causing all the issues. I just wonder what my grandchildren will be saying about our medical techniques when I am 92? Thanks again for all the contiued thoughts and prayers.

Jamie Update: No head ache today -> first day in 32. WOOOOO HOOOOO. Did not check the BP will do that on the way to work in the a.m.

[Woolburr]

nope, i have one + a UV;)....thanks:D

Maxy's first few shots are used for pottery and clay. (correct me if I'm wrong, Maxy) one is a scraper, and the wooden ones are used for detailing and such.

Actually, if I have to be honest, I was hurrying, because Murphy's law states that after a 12 hour lull in TPBM, 2 people will inevitably crash. :lol: I was avoiding the headache, because I forgot my helmet. :lol:

[Jamie Holladay]

Yessir Mr Jamie Sir. :p

ROFL! I can't take you seriously with Noah smirking at me. :lol:
I was not serious, Silly.

Funny thing when I burned the CD of Makayla's photos she had almost the exact same photo from a totally different day. He is such a camera ham.

[cfpackerfan]

Camera ham. Huh. I guess that's better than being a stereo beef.


*groan* :lol:

[Jamie Holladay]

Oh he has an iPod don't be fooled.

[cfpackerfan]

:lol:

[thomascanty]

HOLY CRAP! I just realized that you have been here since 2005!! You're older than me. :lol: :lol:

What does that make me? I guess I'm older than dirt, eh?

[Jamie Holladay]

Where is Zane?

[Jamie Holladay]

What does that make me? I guess I'm older than dirt, eh?
No just Redwoods.

[Jamie Holladay]

Ok well off to check the mail. Well actually to let Eli water the brick mail box but I am sure that was too much info. So what I am trying to say is it bed time.
in the wise actions of Zane
*poof*

Permie Update:

Some of you know that Lisa went on a 7 hour whale watching tour through the San Juan Islands today. She just called.....


It was a total bust. Not one whale. Only a couple of Sea Lions and some porpoise, but that's it. She froze her tush off for nuthin'. :evil:

Same thing happened to me in Iceland, we tried to persuade the boat operators to change their billing from "Whale Watching" to Watching for Whales" but no joy ....... :-(

[BearLeeAlive]

Good Day All

3:00AM here and up to get as much work done as possible, before departing as soon as possible today.

Sorry, but I never really read through yesterdays posts, between pounding away in the office, out at meetings, buying a couple last minute items and attending a company party at a local pub for 5 hrs which sent me home in a cab to an early sleep, I never had time to visit.

I will check in at least once before leaving today, all my time will be here in the office or throwing our stuff in the car.

[Pete]

Hey Jim, flying to Vancouver ain't so expensive after all. We'll be there in the morning, want to pick us up? ;)

[BearLeeAlive]

No problem, but it would be better if you came in to Calgary. :lol:
Pack your woolies. ;)

As it is, we have a 12 hour drive to get to our destination, though seeing we are taking our Mazda instead of the truck, I am sure I can cut that time down a fair bit.

[neil_r]

As it is, we have a 12 hour drive to get to our destination

It once took me 14 days to get from Calgary to Vancouver, but it was a fantastic 14 days.

[BearLeeAlive]

That is the way to really see some awesome country.
There is so much to see and do between these two cities, it would take a lifetime. Trust me, I'm trying. ;)

[Maxed Out]

The shots are great, maxy! YOu are going to have so much fun with Tammy!

Yup:D

I'd bet on 2 being clay modeling tools-wooden paddles?- 3 maybe part of a hinge?

i have no clue what the first two are technically called....just clay tools

the 3rd one is a straight iron bar on an old sink.....

Go here ( http://www.sterlingtek.com/twocanb11bap.html ) young Maximus...spend 30 bucks and never have battery woes again. I even linked you to the correct battery for your camera.

sweet.....thanks;)

You should give your host's support center a call. It looks like your server is having trouble getting it's daemons to start up.

[cfpackerfan]

Daemons? Automagically??

:lol: Harry Potter took over your server, Jamie. :lol:

GMAE all. :D

[neil_r]

:-( My plans for the weekend may well be going down the pan. I was heading off to the Midland Game Fair on Saturday but this latest F&M outbreak will more than likely cause that to be cancelled :-(

[Athena]

Hi everyone - I've been reading, but not had time to post for awhile. Lots of pretty flowers and ceramic tools and a neat underwater video! Nice stuff!

Jamie - your avatar is confusing me...

Neil - Matthew had HFM when he was little in Malaysia. He luckily had a very mild case of it. Is the UK outbreak extreme?

[neil_r]

Not yet, but to prevent what happened a couple of years ago there is a total movement ban on all livestock throughout the UK

[misspix]

Max: GREAT shots :D You have a good eye!

Jim: Have fun/be safe ;)

Jamie: Good news on Grandma and on 2 days headache free.

Permie: Grrrrrrrrrrr on the dress and lack of whales :(

Hullo and g'bye-I am on the road today.

[cfpackerfan]

HI TERRI! Thanks for stopping in. :D We miss your mug.

Neil, so you have the weekend free. Could be interesting. ;)

[neil_r]

Neil, so you have the weekend free. Could be interesting. ;)

Sunday is still a bit special. Teresa will be 40 on Monday so I have managed to track down a whole load of people for Sunday Lunch at a place just 10 minutes down the road LINKY (http://www.anstyhall.co.uk/index.htm?ac=afu&affut=1415)

It is where we spent our wedding night :-)

[Athena]

I posted an orange gerbera in the Nature Section (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=377169). I'm not sure if I have ever posted in there before... :)

You're going to McDonald's (http://www.mcdonalds.com/) for her birthday?! :shock:

;) :p

Tell her happy birthday from us. :D

[cfpackerfan]

A friend of mine just E-mailed me and asked if I, or anyone I know, would be interested in an old Pentax kit:

The Pentax K1000 SE (SE! Wow- hurrah!)
What i think is the original lens ASAHI Optical 1:2 50mm
A 28-85 mm zoom, also says 1:3.5-4.5
And a 2x tele-converter
An old Vivtar flash
And one of those gizmos you can attach to camera (has a spot for flash as well) to help hold it steady.


I told her that I'd love to take it off her hands and asked what she wanted for it.... she told me to offer half of what I think it's worth.

Any suggestions?

[Skrim17]

I haven't a clue Cat, have you googled it all (silly question I know)

We are flying Jamie or of course we'd be stopping in!

[cfpackerfan]

I've been googling. Lots of info on the camera, but not much info on what it's worth. :?

LINK (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentax_K1000)

[Jamie Holladay]

I opened a ticket, they are checking it out.
Jamie - your avatar is confusing me...
Why? I was going to put a 40D something there but could not figure out what so I just went with Noah until I get a better one of Me.
Jamie: Good news on Grandma and on 2 days headache free.
Yep. Mom told me this morning that Grandmother was doing well and the first thing she asked for when she came out of surgery was her teeth LOL. So all is looking up. Again thanks for all the thoughts and prayers.

[Athena]

LINK (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentax_K1000)what about offering it up to B&H and seeing what they would pay?

Why? I was going to put a 40D something there but could not figure out what so I just went with Noah until I get a better one of Me.Because it's going to take awhile for my old brain to learn to associate that cute little face with your comments. ;)

[neil_r]

were you planning on bringing livestock?? :shock: ;)

LOL no. But the Game Fair will have a lot of animals and country people there so may well be called off. They were during the last outbreak. I have just watched the news now and they are slaughtering all the animals on the farms neighbouring the one where the outbreak occurred even though they have no symptoms. The strange thing about this outbreak is that it has been caused by a leak from a Government laboratory that was researching the virus !

[Permagrin]

Hi everyone :) Not home but just sayin' hi :)


Jamie! When did you get the 40D? (there's NO possible way I can catch up after 7 days :lol:!)

[Athena]

The strange thing about this outbreak is that it has been caused by a leak from a Government laboratory that was researching the virus !
:roll: that is rather ironic... Awful, but ironic.

Have a great time Jim! Becky when do you leave?

Saturday 0darkthirty.

Jamie - that is great on the headaches.

[Pete]

Hi guys... We just booked out summer holiday - for October!!
