A Note on Timeout

Wizard-"Touchdown, do you like timeout?"
Touchdown-"No, Grandpa, I don't like it."
Wizard-"Well, what are some things you could do so you won't go to timeout?"
Touchdown-"I could tell Dad, 'No!'"
Wizard-"That sounds reasonable, but maybe you could leave Baby Indy alone and not try to maim him."
Touchdown-"Yeah, but I could just tell Dad, 'No!"
Wizard-"Well, okay then..."

So now you all see what I'm up against over here at the castle. Oh, and as for the challenge. I accept. I am down to the weight I was when I got married to the Wife, so I am on a weightloss roll so to speak. I will accept the challenge.

Last thing today, Indigo is apparently concerned that I am conducting a QOTD over here with my constant questions. So as not to offend the delicate sensitivities (I love saying that in hopes of stirring up the pot) of Indigo, I will only leave a short but sweet message meant to provoke thought. Here goes...

What is the difference between a Harley and a Hoover?

The position of the dirtbag.

Did the Wizzard tell her what would happen if Touchdown tells the King "no"? He should have warned her of the conquences.

A Harley is a motorcycle and a Hoover is a Vaccumn cleaner. Easy one.

Harley is made in the Milwaukee, and they have a freakin' Harley Fest event every summer. No one ever has a Hoover event every summer that makes me wish that I lived somewhere else. However, the thought of Hoover owners, flocking from all around the world with their Hoovers, is rather funny. LOL!

Okay, call me an idiot, but it just hit me why you wanted to name your son Indiana. Duh. Indiana Jones. Gosh, I can't believe that it's taken me this long to figure that out .......

Indigo..The kid is seven months old. It took you that long to figure it out? Are you sure you're not blonde?

Lucy, Lucy, Lucy, it was a joke, I realize it is difficult to tell if the King is joking or dead serious, but the motorcycle and vaccum cleaner was a joke. King you are on with the weight loss. The only thing, we need to weigh in, and I don't want to post my weight.....yuk... Lucy, are you joining in the weight loss challenge.......

Grandpa, They don't call me gullible for nothing!

I posted the ginger bread cookies for you on my site. http://lucysfrugalliving.blogspot.com/2005/12/truly-ginger-cookies-for-grandpa-jones.html

I will join the weight loss challange AFTER Christmas. Ward parties, R.S. dinner tonight, H.P social next week and all the cookie making. This old woman is just too tempted. After Christmas it will be alot easier.

K, I had Indy figured out the first time I read it. What you bet they got a new batch of snow in Pagosa Springs last night? It's gotta be beautiful about now.

Indigo, is that Carol Burnette you see in the mirror or a brunette? It is hard to tell with all the blonde roots.

Wizard, I may be over tomorrow morning for the weigh-in and I will eat two or three of Lucy's cookies before I weigh in.

The king was last seen eating at a smorgasboard, trying to add weight be for the weigh in. I haven't heard from him, He will probably drink a lot of water, and think that will help him.....I am smarter than him.......
