    thartley - Shirts are in the works. Thought about doing cafepress (thanks for the Laundry Day order, by the way) but figure I can have a bunch made here ($2.50/ea) and then have someone back in the states ship them out whenever an order is made. That would create a profit of $6/ea instead of $2-$3 from Cafepress. Or maybe it's better doing Cafepress. Less hassle. Not sure.

    What do you all think?

    hmmmm, too many thoughts running thru my mind. Cafe Press is easy, but I didnt know it ate that much of your $$. Buying direct from Isara is better on that score, obviously. But you would need to make sure you have committed support to get them out timely. And that would require initial cash outlay? Or print as the order is placed? If you can do it direct and by-pass splitting the profits, then do that. :)

    No problem, briceman. We've all wanted to vent occassionally. When people visit a forum everyday, for a long time, it becomes like family. And we all know that families don't always get along. But, in the end, there's no stronger bond than family. ...Well, except maybe a covalent. Ahh science humor. :) Hey, just convince yourself that your birthday party is actually about you becoming a Junior on Isara. :) Happy belated birthday, Pk
    Thanks a ton PK! Well... it's off to mow the lawn... oh and the shirts are a great idea!

    The weather here has been crazy today. It was hailing so hard this morning. The hail set off my car alarm and woke me up. After that fun try out to the car, it poured rain while the sun was still out, then it got really dark like it was about to storm, now it's really sunny, not a cloud in the sky, and it's supposed to rain again later. It's like war of the worlds.

    PS: 2 more posts before I'm a sophomore... I think. :)

    That sounds like our weather here at times. We have a saying: If you dont like the weather, just wait five minutes. B)

    I am scared to DEATH of lightning and we get some hellacious summer storms here. If I am at home, I seriously am usually hiding under my covers. But when I am driving, I'm a basket case. I dont mind rain, thunder, hail, wind... give me all you've got. But when Zeus starts cracking the bolts, I'm a goner.

    Hey, I didn't end up bowling last night... went and played miniature golf instead. Did pretty well... was 2nd place in both games. People will be showing up for my party in 30 min. It should be fun! :)

    Color me cautious as I try to figure out what's going on here.
    ----------------------------- I don't think there's need for extreme caution. Just probably don't go off on anything about DVXuser or bring issues from that family to this family since they're kind of kissing cousins. But I think you can be as whacky random and chatty as you wanna be here (in a thread like this) as size DOES count here. (a theory PK's all to familiar with }:-@) ... and other good manners may apply :) Glad you're here too Terry ... uhm I mean \"Turbo\" ----------- I'm so depressingly behind on so many gargantuan projects. I need anouth 8 hours in the day and a time machine :( grrrr Ok by All.

    awww, I used to play miniature golf at Putt-Putt. Now we have a place called Adventure Landing...huge place with a water park, go carts, laser tag, game room, flight simulators, and of course, mini-golf. heh!

    Goony Golf was always my favorite because you had to do stuff like hit the golf ball into dinosaur bodies and stuff like that. Kinda like you saw in Happy Gilmore. I have not played in years, though.

    Post some pics of that party when you are back among the living! haha!! Briceman in a lampshade... heh!

    Hey all! I'll post some pics of the party later on. I need to get the camera memory card and stuff. It was such a great time, and I had a lot of great friends show up.

    Look at Brice! Smiling! You ought to use that pic for your avatar. :) Or a pic of Rosie. hehe.

    T - you mentioned miniature golf and now I've got a hankering to go play putt putt. I'm going to check out a new place this Friday that has \"Glow in the Dark\" miniature golf. Doesn't that sound cool? Anyone ever played golf in the dark before??

    Golf in the dark? Nope, but I am planning a FUN day for myself. As soon as I am given the nod from the doctors that I can resume full activity, I have a list of things I want to do before going back to work. We have a pretty cool zoo here and I always like going. The silverback gorillas are awesome to see up close. Like they know what we are saying but just lack the ability to verbalize back. Anyway, there's the zoo. Then a day trip to Cumberland Island. Aside from the boat ride over (which I hope to not get ill on) its always a good outing. There are wild horses that roam around on the beaches, lots of wooded trails, and crumbling mansions. I may take my video camera if I can handle hauling all the equipment that goes with it. And there's a few of my favorite places that always just make me happy and I've not been there for ages. Maybe I will document this fun day and edit up a short dealio to let you guys see. heh!

    Hey, I'm back from the weekend. What'd I miss around here? Briceman's party, Terri's plans for being healthy, what else could y'all have possibly fit into this thread?

    Oh, Brandon, tell your Dad he looks just like you. :whistle:

    I don't recall a link to any footage... Did I miss it or was it on the other forum?

    Don't forget, one more page of conversations in here, then you've got to retire this! I just can't keep logging in and sifting through all of it. ;)

    So other than golf, the zoo, and hanging with friends (real and online) what random and fun things do you people do?

    ginafish - i like romantic walks on a beach, outdoor activities with friends, and memorizing personal ads. :)

    Seriously, I'm a big movie fan. I know that's not very \"random.\" Unless I told you I like to watch movies while riding a unicycle. I also like to play sports. But not that sissy Putt Putt Golf that thartley and briceman play.

    :)

    What about you?
