I'm in the pool at work (I'm in the golf business and my office is inside a pro shop; hence my co-workers are ALL golf pros. They bet on anything; what time the sun will set, if it will rain, etc) and I've got Phil!

I was once in a foot race with one other person.

I came in third!

Did ya see Monty's putt!

Go, Philly!

BayouGal~ I think that was the premise when Rosanne started her career! Can I get a collective egads?
Yeah, us northern ladies are a different breed. When we're not shooting those fuzzy squirrels out of the trees, chopping firewood and making our homemade dandelion wine, well, we're just sexy beyond words.
Many a day, I grab a pair of my husband's wool socks and prance around the lawn, hoping that Hugh Hefner will get a secret cell phone photo, taken by my neighbor, the detective, who has apparently started his own neighborhood watch, that is quite similar to stalking celebrities.. well okay, maybe those Levi cutoffs were a bit too Daisy Duke for him.
How 'bout you? Wrestling gators and making moonshine, or living a sedate life on the veranda with Mint Juleps?
Please report back before I add to the naughty Mr. Doughboy saga....

Hey,

Kenneth Brown is from Baton Rouge, LA which is only an hour away from here, his family lives here and he went to here in Baton Rouge, not new orleans. He is great designer. I watched the same show and yes it was a rerun for me, but he is great. they had an article not too long after his first show aired on HGTV. As far as I know from the article that was written in the Advocate newspaper here. He is from Baton Rouge. He is so down to earth on his show. I can watch his show over and over. Sounds like everyone is having a relaxing weekend.

Take care,
Liz

I spent a good ten minutes locked in a huddle with my butcher. In hushed tones, he whispered sweet directions about how to make a tender brisket that would make my husband beg for more.
So, I hope the dinner is a success,and I am a lucky winner tonight!

Liz, one of his shows said N.O., but I'm no expert on him. If you watch a lot, sooner or later you'll probably hear them say he hales from N.O. Maybe he worked there first or something. Wherever, he's a Louisiana boy and a great designer!;-)

LoL Jetset. I shoot squirrels from my back kitchen door on a regular basis. If my neighbor is out working in his barn, I'll even yell over to his place to warn him. Not sure he ever hears me, but I figure if I yell out and happen to hit him in the rearend with a pellet, he can't say I didn't warn him. Lately after breakfast, I hop on the diesel skidder (large bobcat) we borrowed after Katrina and drag huge virgin pine trees to the pile in the field to be burned. From there I clean house, wash clothes, give a stir to my fermenting muscadine wine, get prettied up 'fore my man comes home, and THEN I sip mint julips out on the gallery while awaiting his arrival.

There now . . . think we'll be runners-up for that new reality show??!!

Oh, and if you write it about ole Doughboy, I'll read it, especially if he's gettin naughty now, and enjoy every single laugh. ;-)

Where are the losers tonight? Everyone in bed already?

GoT: Too bad about Phil. How much did you lose? Where's your money for the British Open?

I have a suggestion. Why don't we start a weekly "loser club" thread sharing our weekend (mis)adventures?

On Saturday night I was so tired after visiting a rose exhibit and walking in the Golden Gate park - I did watch something meaningless on the TV too! and can't even remember what :)

Caribtraveler, I had a glass of Australian red too only on Friday night! Some Shiraz I think... have more at home.

Oh, and when I saw the heading, I thought it's about weight loss... sigh...

<<<< Too bad about Phil. >>>>>

I guess any moment now, Phil will be posting on this thread.

wow, I only lost $5

:-D

On deck, the British Open!

Faina, au contraire....seeing the thread title, I thought not of weight loss, but of YOU with an update from your latest casino trip!

CaliNurse,
...Wonder if that Faina casino trip rivals Black Bart's adventures? ;)

LOL guys (un)fortunately I go to casinos with my husband only.

Once he was sitting by himself at a slot machine in Reno at 2 am, and one of those girls who bring drinks asked him if he's feeling lonely. She also said, "we can make you happy".

You know, he doesn't understand much English, but in this case he got each word!

Cali, I posted my last update! We've even won a little! Look for my Tahoe report.

Pretty funny, Bill Boy. But, Phil wld never find this site. He's still looking in green garbage bags & hospitality tents. I heard they found him wandering around the local Winged Foot area last night..."I am such an idiot" is what he kept mumbling. It was heart breaking to watch those last 2 holes...I kept yelling @ him "Put the driver away" but Phil never listens to me. I have been telling him for years to take off that huge darn watch when he putts...it throws off his balance! Why wld anybody wear a watch when they play golf??? For the "Endorsement pics" slip it on, but when you play, lose the watch!

GoTravel, Put your $$$ on Mike Weir for the Open!

Faina--shocking!! No wonder Mr Again prefers to stay home most of the time while his wife is out on the town!
JAGIRL, I'm from Jamaica too (-: ...a proud graduate of Jamaica High School in Jamaica, Queens, New York!

Well GoTravel, I'm basically doing the same pathetic thing just a week later. Ok I'm not watching Miami Vice (Bridge Jones Edge of Reason). I'm downloading Beatles music instead of Latin Music. It's close enough for my taste to pathetic even though it's Saturday morning. So don't feel bad at all.
