mms--
Congrats on the retirement! My husband is a 1st Lt for USAF--only 3 years into it and wants to stay in for 20! I'm sure this will be the first of MANY rescheduled vacations. Good luck with the move--hooray for getting to move where YOU want to!

BIG RAVE: To jor for finally putting the date on Freaky Friday post so we know which thread we're on.

Rave: Even though it's Friday night and it's fairly new on DVD, we've got a copy of Le Divorce waiting at the video store for us. We get to look at Paris and dream about our next trip.

Rant: It's just a breast, for God's sake! The ads were a lot more offensive.

rant - i live in maine

rave - warmth in 29 days(orlando)

rant - my kids are fighting

rave - they'll be gone tomorrow all day

rant - basically that i ever had these cute little babies that have turned into fighting, obnoxious, loud, phone hogging, boyfriend bringing home teenagers

rave - ones at college, and the next two arn't far behind



ok i may sound a little mean but being home all day with 2 female teenagers and 4 of their friends while they have a snow day is more than i can handle......

Rant: Someone is suing over Janet J's boob? Why are people so outraged over the boob at the superbowl when there so many more "boobs" in more dangerous places, like political office!!! Maybe if they had more of JJ's cleavage they would have less Viagra advertising!
Rave: I got to plan more business travel for hub so more FF miles and hotel rewards!

rave: Our snow in Rochester is shrinking!

rant: It turns out that 1 foot of ice is almost as annoying as 4 feet of snow!

Mary2Go: Pretty funny boob comment!

I thought we established last week that the statute of limitations ran until Sunday midnight. Besides, emd, it's only 9:10pm Friday night here on the left coast!

Thanks, Marilyn, for the clarification! That gives us on the East/Right Coast an extra three hours to rant/rave.

Rant: We here in mid-Michigan got a few more inches of snow today (which may not seem much to those of you out of the snow belt, but to those of us with over a foot of snow to begin with, is A LOT).

Rave: Winter is now more than half over and the days are getting longer (which means that spring is out there somewhere!)

They are ranting over the "boob" because it was "broadcasted" EVERYWHERE. There are small kids to adults who are christian, people who have morals and apparently these are the people that are offended.

Hey, I have morals, and I was not offended by the breast but I was offended by some of those incredibly tacky and misogynistic commercials (and I don't mean the erectile dysfunction ones).

Ques. How do you know when it's time to go to bed at Neverland?

Ans. When the big hand is on the little hand.

Rant: poor Carlie and her family, I am heartbroken. I think watching her being abducted made the the whole mess MUCH WORSE. Rave: here in SWFla, a cool cloudy day(high 68*) to read a good book, I feel guilty when reading on a gorgeous 80* day like yesterday! Judy
