Awesome!
Why didn't my kitchen come with one of those?
I can never tell if I am simplifying enough, as I tend to be too thorough. As a high school assignment on "thoroughness", I once wrote a three page paper instructing people how to make a peanut butter an jelly sandwich. Instead of "open jar" I wrote "With your left hand holding the jar tightly, place your right hand on top of the lid with fingers grasping the sides of the lid. Gripping tightly, twist the lid to the left until the lid is loose enough to lift off the jar. Place lid on table and use right hand to pick up spoon." etc. I was the only one who got an A.
Usually it comes from having kids (especially BOYS!). As Bill Cosby pointed out you have to detail EVERYTHING you want them to do. Can't just be "Go take a shower". It has to be go into the bathroom and turn on the hot AND cold water, then take off your clothes and get in the shower, turn the handle on the bathtub to make it go through the shower...well you get the idea! Can you tell I had 3 boys? They are now 29, 28 and 27.
Not to pick on the men but I thought it was just my boys like that. Ha! It's all males. Should've known better. My oldest DD loves it when I say that men are just boys in bigger bodies. It cracks her up.
Ok all, I'm off to bed
Got to get up early and go have back surgery. Behave while I'm gone!
Oh, by the way here's another link for some great emoticons:

Ok, one more post.
My favorite saying (said while clapping my hands together and VERY sarcastically!) is
"Boys...they have one brain cell running around in their head, TRYING to form a thought!!"
"And they don't get another brain cell until they reach AT LEAST 35!!!"
Night now,
Gail
P.S. Thanks, spencersmom98
I'm with you on Dave Matthews Lani. Ever seen him live? btw, I love your avatar..that's the little guy from the Manamana song on the muppets isn't it?
Animal Rocks!!!!!
LOVE Animal! I've started pulling up Muppet Show skits for my kiddos, (gotta teach 'em the classics, no? ) DS loves Swedish Chef! He walks around saying "Bork, Bork, Bork", and "Chickey-Poo", and wants to make donuts with a shotgun...
Waldorf and Statler, hi.la.ri.ous!
We've gotten all three seasons so far on dvd for "the kid" of course. My DH and I have always been big muppet fans though. And Waldorf and Statler are some of my heroes!!!
Muppets????
I love that Beaker one!
Did you guys see the Muppets Cake on the Sunday Sweets edition of Cake Wrecks? That cake was the s#!%! (pardon the language, but there is really no better expression describing it. )
linky: http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2008/09/sunday-sweets-to-make-henson-proud.html
I SO want to try to make a similar cake to that for DH, but I'm nowhere near where I want to be with my skills for that yet. I'm the type that if one detail made a muppet look wrong I'd hate it. And I'm so gonna use these smileys as much as possible now.
YAY! No school tomorrow - we are sleeping in! So I am off to bed, don't expect to see me up early.
Gail - good luck on your surgery!
Dkelly...I'll be glad to, if you want to pm me your e-mail. I can't attach anything through the email here. Or, you can right click on my avatar, then do save picture as, and save it to your computer. Then you can save it as your avatar too!
Jodie

A Doctor was addressing a large audience:
"The material we put into our stomachs is enough to have killed most of us sitting here, years ago. Red meat is awful. Soft drinks corrode your stomach lining. Chinese food is loaded with MSG. High fat diets can be disastrous, and none of us realizes the long- term harm caused by the germs in our drinking water. But there is one thing that is the most dangerous of all and we all have, or will, eat it. Can anyone here tell me what food it is that causes the most grief and suffering for years after eating it?" After several seconds of quiet, a 75-year-old man in the front row raised his hand, and softly said, "Wedding Cake."
