    ... because the early bird gets the worm ... and because we don't want those ~poor unfortunate~ Ozzy's to be here all alone, due to their oddball time zone. :D :D ~Who knows what would happen if we did~ :blink: :ninja:

    Don't worry, the inbox is standard for all members, which has a limit of 50. ;)

    You could save all your PMs as HTML pages or the other methods available in your PM box , and then you could freely delete all the messages consuming space.

    BTW - We aren't any more 'important' than anyone else, in the end we are all just members .... and we're all guests of Paul and Mike. ;)

    What does Love mean?

    A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds,
    "What does love mean?" The answers they got were broader and
    deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think:




    "When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her
    toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even
    when his hands got arthritis too. That's love." Rebecca- age 8



    When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just
    know that your name is safe in their mouth." Billy - age 4



    "Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne
    and they go out and smell each other." Karl - age 5



    "Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French
    fries without making them give you any of theirs." Chrissy -age 6



    "Love is what makes you smile when you're tired." Terri - age 4


    "Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip
    before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK." Danny - age 7



    "Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing,
    you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are
    like that. They look gross when they kiss" Emily - age 8



    "Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening
    presents and listen." Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)



    "If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who
    you hate," Nikka - age 6 (we need a few million more Nikka's on this planet)



    "Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it
    everyday." Noelle - age 7



    "Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still
    friends even after they know each other so well." Tommy - age 6



    "During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore." Mindy - age 8


    "My mommy loves me more than anybody . You don't see anyone else kissing
    me to sleep at night." Clare - age 6



    "Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken." Elaine-age 5


    "Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is
    handsomer than Robert Redford." Chris - age 7



    "Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone
    all day." Mary Ann - age 4



    "I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes
    and has to go out and buy new ones." Lauren - age 4



    "When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars
    come out of you." (what an imagination) Karen - age 7



    "You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you
    mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget." Jessica - age 8


    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge.
    The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.


    The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an
    elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife upon seeing the man cry,
    the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap,
    and just sat there. When his Mother asked what he had said to the
    neighbor,
    the little boy said, "Nothing, I just helped him cry"

    I was hoping somebody would think it was funny. I like playing with words (in case anyone hasn't noticed that already).

    Aah Pam, Pam, Pam,

    Not only was that line funny but it got right to the core!! But you gotta be wary. When referring to someone who has such an amazing post count as 'it' has (8434 last I peeked) you should be prepared to defend yourself. The 'Hoorah Brigade' has scheduled a recruitment session at your neighborhood 7-11 so this would be a fine opportunity to serve your something or other. As there is no Boot Camp, you get to go to the Front as soon as you report to Div. Com. Maj. Marg. She is very tough and not very fair, unless you like cats.

    If you make the wise decision you will receive a round of Hoorahs, 3 or 4 Medals, a promotion or two, and an invite to free pizza Fri nites at the Mess.

    If you join 'them' it's nothing but reprimands, no liberty, and veggie burgers 3 meals a day.

    Sempre Fi, Lt Gen big ed, USMC

    These are truly amazing pictures!
    A lady found a hummingbird nest
    and got pictures all the way from the newly laid eggs
    to the babies leaving the nest.
    It took 24 days from birth to flight.
    Because you'll probably never see this up close in your lifetime... enjoy!!


    {Check out the size of the nest in the last picture!}



    Hummer Nest '05
    A tiny bird on a tiny nest.
    She is holding her head high --
    as well she should!

    ...........................................

    At a chance moment, while she goes for a snack -- we can take a peek at what she has there - -

    Wow! Two tiny pearl white eggs, all of 13mm (½") long!

    Firstborn!!

    After the struggle to break out of his tiny shell, it appears he is just plumb tuckered out!!

    ...........................................

    A few hours later, our new arrival has recovered and is thinking -- "How about something to eat!!"

    Another visit with the Hummer family.

    Little Mother is there protecting the nest from today's rain showers

    http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/7044/hum68on.jpg

    Sooner or later she must leave to renew her energy reserve.

    ..........................................

    And this is the progress report - - -

    At the ripe old age of 21 days, the brave one has left the nest,
    he is likely in that tangle of vines and Poison Oak,
    but I couldn't locate him. I could hear Mom scolding me, though!

    http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/8817/hum162ze.jpg

    ...............................................

    March 9th, 2005
    Feel that empty feeling? Yes, they've both left the nest -- Happy Landings to them!!

    For a size comparison: A toothpick is 2½" long, a penny is ¾" in diameter.

    http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/1962/hum178qq.jpg

    My thanks to Maggie!
    For it was she who first located this nest.

    -----------------------------------------


    These photos were captured by a Panasonic DMC FZ20 digital camera.
    It's wonderful 12x zoom lens,
    managed to reach into that jungle and retrieve these images without creating too much stress for Mom and the babies.
