It's March and we are just getting a dumping of snow today! I understand the Europe is starting spring! Send some spring here! I just came back in from outside and the snow is deep! Like Christmas again!

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning, world. Looks like a quiet day on Bonaire.

Happy Hump Day!

It's supposed to rain all day today in Western Massachusetts - and hit the mid-40s. It is DREARY!

I was so tired yesterday...



Surf's UP on Bon!



Wishing on a rainbow?

Good morning,Rusty. When I look like that it's usually puddles of liquid around me.
One of our watery parrots.

Morning Eileen and Rusty. It is a dreary ol' day here in the uk too. Rain is on the way

WHOOPS! Morning John. That one took so long to upload, you just nipped past me there.

Rain coming here too, since we get pretty much the same stuff as Rusty, just an hour or two later, and somewhat moderated by the ocean. Just changed the wiper blades on the car. All the ice and frost on the windshield over the winter really chewed them up.

Now it's off to the dentist.

The combers are still crashing in.

It's...

Bridge Players Day

And just who started all of that bidding? Probably the English! They had a game called Trump back in the 1500s. This turned into Whist and became popular with the upper-class in the middle 1700s. Whist went through many changes, but ended up being the contract bridge game played today.

That is not my favorite place to go. Good luck at the Dentist John. Annie B.

I was wondering if this guy would show up again this year. Wonder if he's bathed since 2002?

Now, for another chorus of *The Old Rugged Cross*:

Annie! I'm glad that things are going well with Emma! Hooray!

Did anyone notice something *funny* about the Mickey Mouse T-shirts in the first Mardi Gras thread yesterday? Mr. Bill, you must be slipping...

Good Morning Everyone


Good Luck at the Dentist, John

Not too bad weather-wise up north. Is colder than it looks. Had a few spots of rain, but nothing distressing [or wetting]. Bit grey though mainly bright.

Well I posted them, and Kev had a look to check if they were shes or he-shes

Here they are again.

Rusty:

Yeah, Mickey's "ears" were 3-D if you catch my drift! I laughed hysterically over those!

Thanks for pointing that out , Rusty.(referring to above)

Now about those mouseketeers....I noticed that ,too, but didn't want to point out the merely obvious. A very clever costume idea! Did anyone actually miss that? I thought everyone was just being polite.

Hey John - aren't you supposed to wait for *DENTIST TIME* for your appointment?

Good morning, Jenni!

I was thinking it's kind of funny for the preacher to be there amongst the rabble and the breast exams - but it's probably the closest place to Sodom and Gomorrah he could find that has a cam and no cover charge.

Hi Sally! I laughed too.

Thought it was a clever idea, but not sure I would do it. Of course down-town Manchester is not the place to do it either [cept around Canal Street maybe], and there looked the right place to do it, and the right time.

Jenni:

They are DEFINITELY more brave than I'd be...especially on cams around the world! I'd be wearing a mask for sure!

I guess that's the best thing about Mardi Gras...you can do things you wouldn't normally do!

Margarite

You excited? I was VERY excited when I got my 2000. And what are we going to do when Rusty reaches 10,000? Gotta do something!!!

Hi Jenni, I am still experimenting, still can't change background colour on the bubbles. Check your emails. Annie B.

I can imagine the *mouseketeers* sitting around in a craft class making felt noses!

Hi Rusty, Margarite, Sally, Jenni, Eileen, Annette & John,

Mr. Bill did not miss the clever Mickey Mouse shirts. Just great admiration and appreciation in silence!!! Thanks for re-posting them Jenni - they certainly are deserving a second look!

And welcome back to Janeece daaawling from NZ who showed up on last night's thread.

Miserable winter weather today. No Mickey mouse shirts in sight.

Bill

Annie - howz the situation?

Wassup with the bubble background?

Bill:

That's because where you reside, Mickey's nose'd be sticking out a mile!

Oh my!

Im trying paint shop 7 again. when I go to fill in with white background, it says I need a non-null foreground, and I don't know how to do that. Went into help too. It's gotta be something stupid I am just not seein'. Annie B.



Gotta restart. Silly puter freezing up bad. Be back in a mo.

Annie - choose the background FIRST - then go to the usual circle deformation. Just dbl-click on the lower right square in the pallette.

LOL!!! We had such fun at Mardi Gras! Wish we had a Hangover Cam.....we'd see the ugly results .

Would I wear that costume? Wellllll......maybe under the right circumstances.....the mask would be a must, Rusty , Annie , Jenni and the rest of you would have to do it with me, and I would have to imbibe copious quantities of liquid courage !

Annie I had the same, at first. I went on a palette looking thingy on the right hand side, and changed that mustard coloured background to white, and then it is all right. Well, the white doesn;t show up on the chat thread, but does on the webcam thread [cos background is now grey, of course].

Hope this helps

Oh dear, the end of that message reads all wrong. I meant I hope the information I gave you annie helps you. I'm sure the bubble above will help some folks, but not you Annie in working out 7. LOL :-)))

Look we had visitors. Was just going to enlarge and read the signs and the cams changed shot and they were departing. Darn it!

So who are they? Look very lovey-dovey, don;t they?

Do we have to go home? Can't read HIS sign, tho:

GMTA, Rusty. don;t you think she looks a little like you, Rusty? She's not your sister is she?

Alrighty, then! I'm ready for the Mardi Gras cam! *hic*

Let'sh go, grrrrlsh!

Jenni at that bubble. I tried a grey background on the other thread, but it is too dark, so I just leave it white. Annie B.

Sally - But a knitted nose warmer would be required - totally spoiling the effect!!

The all-natural red-heads of BT should get those shirts and get to the street cam!!


And you wouldn't need Jenni to provide support - 'cause she'd be there!

Bill & BillBot - Two perv's are better than one.

You know, I wouldn't be surprised if my psychic twin were there. I am in deep need of some warmth and sunshine! I would love to get to Bonaire this year. Alas, I sent my dentist and my two surgeons in my place. Phhht. LOL

I did notice that one of the Mickeys needed a nose job. He deflated. LOL

I'm getting ready to head out into the Hump Day - Down in the Dumps Day - with Dadz. Going to need a *brelly* or a bumbershoot, or whatever the UK Chix call them!

Hey - take a picture of ME with SMOKEY THE ROCK!



New thread, folks...
