The person below me

[theCryptofishist]

I think that I'll huddle beneath the bed like a dog on the Fourth.
TPBM can totally relate to accidentally hitting "caps lock" and then hitting "tab" to return to regular letters.

[Sail Man]

WOW! Didn't work for me, went straight to preview when I tabbed. Speaking of which, TPBM absolutely loves

[International Incident]

I think the last can of tab I had would have been when just a kid. I remember the ads though.
TPBM is wondering why St Patricks day is "such" a big thing in the USA.

(well I want to know anyway) Its a drinking day here and we have lots of irish heritage (eg me)

[theCryptofishist]

Sorry, I hate SPD. And i refuse to celebrate until at the very least St. Stan is held in the same esteem. And then there's George (England, Catalonia), Andrew (Scotland), Dennis (ahem! France), David (Wales) and all those tiny duchies, counties and principalities that were Germany and Italy until the recent past.

TPBM thinks that all sucks for those people in parts of the world who weren't even christian, much less catholic.

[OregonRed]

I don't really think about it one way or the other. Religion is really weird.

TPBM wants to soak in a hot tub (or the equivalent).

[theCryptofishist]

I fear sloshing around unable to get out...
TPBM collected stamps as a kid.

[OregonRed]

I collected stamps and bugs. Eventually I combined the collections and collected stamped bugs. (I'm so kidding, couldn't help myself, Fishy).

TPBM owns water wings.

[theCryptofishist]

Even I'm not that much of a hoarder.
TPBM built castles out of lego.

[moonrise]

Yes, I did. Also sand castles on the shores of the Long Island Sound (sweet memories & one of my "happy places" when things get tough) the tide would come in and wash them away...we would try to save them, but there was always another day and more sand castles.


TPBM fire roasts tortillas, bread (toast), bell peppers etc! over an open flame gas stove without using a pan of any type. Yum!

[Eric]

Yup. Especially tortillas- hell, we "import" those from Arizona & freeze them so they have to be treated right!


tpbm is delaying the inevitable.

[Trishntek]

Yeah, we're having a St Paddle's Day party and I need to get my ass in gear

TPBM is already shit-faced

[jella]

Nope just started Had too much shit to do today

TPBM has another special reason to remember March 17th.

[maryanimal]

Nope. Can't think of a darn thing...
tpbm loves corned beef and cabbage

[theCryptofishist]

Never had it, to be honest it sounds gross and unhealthy...
TPBM bought soda bread this year.

[Elorrum]

no soda bread, but I did look at corned beef today. figure it will be on sale tomorrow, and I do like it. It makes a good sandwich, good mustard delivery vehicle.
tpbm might know someone named Erin who should be encouraged to go bra-less today.

[B the B]

Indeed!
Corned Beef and Cabbage Gross and Unhealthy?!!?!? SHENANIGANS!!!! I CALL SHENANIGANS!!!
TPBM has no idea what Erin Go Bragh means

[jella]

something about being true to Ireland I think

TPBM isn't Irish even on St Patricks day

[lemur]

i take st patricks day off... my bony irish ass is busy the rest of the year


the person below me thinks BURNING WALL ST sounds like a good idea!

[theCryptofishist]

I'm not thrilled about the layers of worth the super-rich are peeling off the rest of the country, if that's what you mean.
TPBM is rushing off to buy as much green beer as possible while it's still available.

[catinthefunnyhat]

I'm not much of a beer drinker, and food colouring doesn't make it any more appealing to me. I did, however, enjoy some gin & sodas with slices of lime in them yesterday. So I did my green-adult-beverage-drinking duty!

TPBM has a garment full of playa dust that s/he takes out and sniffs now and then, just to bring back the feeling...

[Eric]

I actually have a bag-full that still need to go to the dry cleaner. I think the feeling is more "ick" though.


tpbm had the luck of the Irish yesterday

[theCryptofishist]

Not really. At least I didn't get invaded by England...
TPBM finished a crucial piece for her/his burn this weekend.

[OregonRed]

Sorta. Oregon Fire Conclave is fleshing out our intro choreography. It's always a challenge to herd flaming cats.

TPBM would be delighted to give me a birthday kiss.

[theCryptofishist]

I'm more of a huggy person, than a kissy one. I'd very gladly give you dozens of hugs and hope to do this on the playa.
(alas, Terminal City!)
TPBM likes paprika.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Yes, but I generally prefer cayenne pepper. I find most paprika is kind of bland and, dare I say it, dusty tasting (not playa dust, just regular). That said, I did have a jar of lovely hot Hungarian paprika a few years ago, and it was great stuff.

TPBM has painted toenails.

[theCryptofishist]

*sits in middle of thread and blinks...*

TPBM is, or was, a backpacker.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Well, I have a backback, and I use it a lot. But carrying books 'n' shit around downtown Toronto probably doesn't count. So, no, I guess not.

TPBM doesn't like wind chimes.

[Dr Helix]

Hate hate HATE 'em. Droning on and on. I would pull them off their mounts if I could.

TPBM will never accept online newspapers.

[theCryptofishist]

I think that they are irritating. If we stipulate some sort of electronic ink, and a format that's portable, and the fact that there are differing opinions in real newspapers, in a way there isn't on the web. But doing the crossword puzzles won't be the same.
TPBM likes the Jumble.

[maryanimal]

Why, yes I surely do!!

tpbm will celebrate the vernal equinox on tuesday.
