- Pics, Blags; and "Never You Mind"...
-
Stolen from http://xkcd.com/148/.
.
Good Morning All;
I really HAVE been around; just spend LOTS of time reading about these dang politics of ours.
Wait, don't hang up. This is NOT a political blog. (Blag)?
heheheIt has been so long since I have "blagged" that a few of these pics/thoughts might be 'repeats'.
(If that is the case, kindly refer to the fact that I am 50 now)!I have received more pictures from my son-in-law, William.
Cute pics of my Little Lawrence and their family.
(Lawrence who clearly, I am not going to be able to call "little" anymore)..
.
Almost the whole crew...
(Minus me of course)..
.
Quoting William here:
"This is a type of sand shark that we caught by hand.
It's an angel shark,
Lawrence said what it was right when we pulled out of the water.".Um, wait a minute there Will.
I'm not too sure I want to be catching ANY kind of sharks by hand!
(And I don't care if it's an 'angel' or not)...
Not too sure what one would do with such a thing either...Does one eat it?
Feed it to the dogs?
Release it?
Throw it at someone you don't like?.
Not sure what Lawrence is looking for...
(But I'm damn sure happy I wasn't hiding in the grasses that day)!
hehehe.
.
Lori and Lawrence on a Dolphin Cruise!
(Lori, where is YOUR Life Jacket?)...
Y'all better CLICK HERE to see what happens if you don't wear one.
Something about "The Arkansas Titanic!"
hehehe.
.
Not too sure what these are...
~To me, they look like the biggest darn goldfish ever~
And the "goldfish" don't look too happy either....
See my comment from William himself below... (Among other things, he has ended the question of what kind of fish these are).
Meanwhile, on this side of the Mason Dixon Line, my sister Kris has completed her first triathlon with her cousin Bill.
Say "YAY" !!!!
.
.
.
. - Her times?
"quarter mile swim, 9 minutes
15 mile bike, 1 hour, five minutes
3.5 mile run, 55 minutes" .
.
AND, she came in 2nd in her age group too!
(Never you mind that there were only 2 entrants FOR her age group).
.Even more pictures?
My Angel Mama Marie has posted a new album of pictures of their Damion and his lil' brother, our Baby Sam.
Please click here to see these darling young men!On the homefront, I think I know why Sputnik is the deep purple color that he is.
.
hehehe
Yes, Casey had found me some purple drop-ins for the toilet!
(And yes, that darned cat prefers purple water)....
Also on the homefront:
Austin Straubel Airport has changed their incoming flight patterns..
.
This, I do not appreciate, for two reasons:
#1. They are LOUD when they are flying over.
#2. Punk has taken to chasing them clear across the field.
While this is good exercise for her, it startles people terribly... (Me, for instance).
No, she hasn't caught one yet.
And yes, it is probably safer than chasing cars...
Casey took this picture...
(Swearing that she didn't get it too)..
Methinks she got it just fine!
(This is how the cucumbers all get bitemarks in them too)...
sigh.
.
And one more thought here, but very important to my Multiply friends...
If you are wondering why I do not comment on your videos, please know this...
If you post one of these, , I cannot watch it. I have dial up.
Even www.hughes.net is quite spendy.
So, until hell freezes over, (or until I find a different home), I will not be commenting on these.
(Unless of course you 'splain them to me on an 8~year~old level)...
I'd better close for now. have taken that giant leap of faith and put my little sale in the paper for today... I'd best get out there and start moving a few things outside.
It might rain. Those "few things" had better be waterproof too.Have a 'wunnaful' weekend!
Special thanks to William and Kris and Marie for all the pictures!Love to all.
XOXO
AnnePS
The question of the day now...What is your very 1st thought when you see this picture?.

My first thought about the pic would have to be money. Why you might wonder? Well, I'm a 50 year old farm girl and not once did any of our pigs fly. If a farmer could raise pigs that fly, he'd/she'd be the richest person in the world. LOL!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics, too. I've spent time this week just reading blogs. Heck, over on 360 sometimes ya can't even do that. I'm just glad that some of those on my 360 list are here on multiply and usually post the same blog here and I'm able to read it.
Good luck with your little sale.
My guess would be Red Snapper(?)
ReplyDeleteWhere were the beach pictures taken - Alabama coast?
Nice looking family pictures - pretty Weimaraner (dog) too!
Congrats to Kris - that's really something! I get winded just walking up a few flights of stairs. I need a dog to walk, so I can whip myself into shape (or even close to being in shape would be good!)
Don't let Sput drink that purple water - ewww!
Somehow seeing big airplanes fly over your beautiful pastoral farm just doesn't seem right.
And the bottom picture is of course - "when pigs fly!"
Hope it doesn't rain on your sale. Make lots of money!
Good mornin' Bart,
ReplyDeleteThat picture reminds me when Pigs fly.. you must really be doing well on that sale...hehe
Looks like red snapper to me.. oh man they are yummmmmy!
As to that life vest thing.. funny I thought the very same thing.. Where is HER Life jacket?
How did Nikki get in that picture? Has she been sleeping around on me? Hussy!
That purple stuff cant be good for the Sput.. maybe get you an automatic hinge to close the lid from now on. hehe
What a great shot of the thief.. arent they magnificent creatures? Yummy also..hehe
Yep very good exercise for the Punk! Well, as long as she doesnt catch one.. Im sure the FAA would not be pleased..hehe
Congrats to the runners.. I know at my age I couldnt do it.
Have a wonderful day ..Im just sitting here waiting for the pager to go off.
Mucho hugs!

I love your blag!
ReplyDeleteThat's why I keep coming back to this wobsite :)
Great photos, the shark is cool....Lawrence looks happy and the triatheletes look fit as fiddles. Kudo's to them.
Purple cats and flying pigs? Now I know why you are mispronouncing things, lol.
When pigs fly...
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the Bikers.
Is that a deer Casey got a pic of?
Im with RT...
seeing airplanes over our home doesnt seem right
love to you
Oh my! Lawrence has done some growing! That was a great picture of Lori and Lawrence on the boat with the water as their background.
ReplyDeleteI do wish I was as athletic as your sis Kris. I'll bet she feels good too!
Hmmm....purple cats and dogs chasing planes! What's in that water up there in Wisconsin??? Oh yeah.....purple toilet drop ins! LOL!
When Pigs fly??? Well, that usually means the likelihood of something happening is pretty null. Now that I have seen it with my own 4 eyes (glasses add me another set. Hehehehe!) I would have to say that something has happened that otherwise would not have happened.
btw Im glad you are getting to see pics of Lawrence
ReplyDeleteSweet Doubtfire!
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine if there really WERE pigs flying overhead?
HAHAHA!!!
(And everyone goes "Ewww" when a seagull poops)!
I still miss so many from 360- Even here, there are a few that I miss because of no comments etc...
But yes, whether here or 360, I go to those peoples blogs who do actually take the time to come to mine and to even say 'HI" every now and then.
Ya get kinda tired of getting little or nothing in return...
And with this dial up, I have no time to waste once i am on here
Love to you
Hope your weekend is great!
Oh, and I am going to have some stuffed green peppers for supper!
All fresh I might add!
XOXO
Me
Sweet RT;
ReplyDeleteMaybe... I wouldn't know a red snapper from a snapping turtle.
My fish comes fresh from Seaway Foods- or the red salmon right out of the can!
mmmm
Where?
I dunno.
I believe they have a condo, or place on the Gulf Shores.
William said 'lake' in his note...
hehehe CONGRATS to Kris is right... (I get winded just thinking about her doing all those things)!
Milly just might be puppifying.
You can have the best rascal of the bunch!
hehehe
Purple water says safe for pets.
(It's also safe for the septic tank and drainfield).
Whom shall I complain to about the airplanes???
Hasn't rained yet. (I am still open but real slow now).
XOXO
Me
hehehe
ReplyDeleteSweet Beep!
Hopefully the pager is behaving. (If not, please complain when you turn it back in that there is/was something wrong with it, and that they should fix it before you get it again).
Laughing at YOU catching the jacketless Lori. (I figured after you had sunk one boat AND ONE CAMERA already, that YOU would see that.
hehehe
Punk says she is 'telling' Nikki that you called her a hussy.
Methinks Milly wasn't too particular either. But I was!
XOXO
Me

Sweet BethieBaby!
ReplyDeleteYou cracked me up all over again!
Too funny you are!
Mispronouncing? I can't even say 'Flying Pigs' 5 times fast...
hehehe
Not too sure about that shark though.
Looks really WEIRD to me!
Lawrence and his daddy are MUCH braver than I am!
XOXO
Me
Sweet Becca!
ReplyDeleteCongrats is right...
And yes, that is a doe (♫ a deer, a female deer ♫)...
Probably a year or two at most... And I know it's hard to see. We were standing up by the house, and took the pic over 20 acres...
I tried to darken it up, but what I know about changing pics is limited to cropping them...
Sorry about that.
Now you and RT have to figure out who I should complain to about those darned planes.
Love~ right back atcha!
XOXO
Me
ReplyDeleteSweet PeachieBaby.
Lawrence sure IS tall! (Gets THAT from me)!
And I was going to say it must be in the water down there, but then you made me giggle asking WHAT was in the water up here!
I love that picture of Lori and Lawrence too!
Almost professional!
I wish I was half as athletic as Kris...
sigh
Not this year anyway.
XOXO
Me
Me too! Me too!
ReplyDeleteIt takes a real long time to download them from the email because William has his camera set really high. But aren't they worth the wait?
I love them all!
XOXO
me
Hmmm
ReplyDeleteSweet Pea.
Whoa, were you making fun of all my southern friends on here?
Sassy you.
But hey, since I am neither Southern, (NOR self~respecting), you couldn't expect me to know.
XOXO
Me
Red fish have a large black dot just before their tail fin, the fish in the picture above don't, besides, they're too red to be Red Fish. These are definitely Red Snapper. Click on this link for a picture of a Red Snapper http://myfwc.com/marine/FishID/snapred.html and this link for Red Fish http://www.fishfloridabay.com/redfish.html
ReplyDeleteNice pics Anne. I wonder how those red fish taste - when cooked I mean. I'd guess other wise they taste with their tongues.
ReplyDeleteFish have tongues?
ReplyDeleteNice 'catch' on the fish!
ReplyDeletehehehe
(I still think they are HUGE goldfish)!
ReplyDeleteMr. Khoolman;
Methinks any fish from down there would be that color from eating shrimpies.
Therefore my guess would be that it would taste like a fish/shrimp.
GAWD, now I am hungry...
XOXO
Me
ReplyDeleteThey have to swallow somehow!
hehehe
(But I will admit that was my 1st thought too).
And my 2nd thought?
I am tired. Too tired.
And am going to try to sleep for a bit.
XOXO
me
Anyone who has ever taken a hook out of a fish's mouth will tell you...
ReplyDelete...fish do not have tongues.
So funny!
they do too
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeletewell at least Flipper does...
I stand corrected. I guess some fish do have tongues. Maybe the fish classified as mammals? But I'm absolutely positive the trout I've caught did not have tongues.
ReplyDeleteawww I cannot believe how big Lawrence is getting!! Thanks for sharing the pictures...purple water???? What is wrong with that cat???
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Sunday!!
hugs!
Thers
xoxoxo
I see sarcasm is one of those things you don't get around here......
ReplyDeletei was joking. the fish, it is red. one fish two fish, red fish blue fish.
Birdie Birdie in the sky
ReplyDeleteWhy'd you doo-doo in my eye?
I'm a big girl I won't cry
But I'm sure glad that cows don't fly......
Sorry, guess I should have SAID that somewhere huh?
ReplyDeleteNice pix Annie... Lawrence is so grown up, exactly when did that happen..?
ReplyDeleteis that a spear going thru that lil sharkey or...? yikes, poor dear..!
if anyone cares, I agree that those are red fish with tongues.
Contrary to what you may think about those triathlon-ers, i know for a fact that miss krissy sissy poo, couldn't walk, crawl or even say her own name the entire week after the race.
Purple toilet water cat..? are you smoking something?
love you mrs. loopner,
ant k
Not that it matters, but do fish have tastebuds? And if so, where?
ReplyDeleteIt's easy to ask to ask the obvious questions.
If nothing else, I'm good for researching stuff (yeah, I know).
ReplyDeleteHere's what I found out about tongues. All mammals or most multi-cellular animals, that is, members of the subkingdom Metazoa, have tongues or similar organs.
Some animals have prehensile tongues. For example, chameleons, frogs, salamanders and some species of fish use their tongues to catch prey. This also would include some insects.
So, fish that are mammals, such as Dolphins and Wales, have tongues along with those (mentioned above) which have prehensile tongues.
Isn't it fun learning new things? ROFLMAO!!
In your blog title:
Pics, 'Blags'; and 'Never You Mind'...
I guess this would fit in the "Never You Mind" category.
Mmm Bacon. yummy, I'll have a wing. Lawrence looks just like Roberta doesn't he? Khool, Fish do not have taste buds. Have you seen what they eat?
ReplyDeleteWHAT???? My dad is REALLY going to start stepping up to the plate and being a DAD?!?!?
ReplyDeleteYeah...
Speaking of frozen pigs in hell, well, never mind. I had no idea where I was going with that...
Your blag is one of the best that I've ever rood. In fast, it is thie beast I've evar sine!
Whew, that's a mooth full!
;)
Sweet Lawrence really is growing up... Pretty soon he'll be taller than me! Wait, that's not that hard... And I'm pretty sure he already is... Umm... Pretty soon he'll be as tall as a 6' person!!!
Yeah, speaking of tired.... (see above) ((No idea who above is, but you should see that person and speak of tired...))
And OH what exciting things they find, when they have the time!
From snakes to sharks, and beaches to parks
Oh the things you can catch if only you.... wouldn't be scared as hell to grab on...
(So much for hanging out with Dr. Seuss... I guess I have a ways to go...)
They do always have the most intriguing animals in their posession or in pictures, it is really quite awesome! That little boy is seeing more in his first ten years of life than I have seen in my entire 21 years! Very good for the mind and the character... Lori and William are such wonderful parents... They must read your blag too and take notes! :D
CONGRATS TO KRISSY POO!!!!! I honestly can say that I would not be able to make it to that finish line! Wayyyyy, too much energy required... Very awesome job!!!
I was glad that we could get some done this weekend, even though we expected those pigs to get off the ground and wanted some "down time" whatever that is... (I read in a book somewhere that it is pretty nice!)
Well, I must sleep...
Love you much much!
~CaseyAnne
LoL..cute! Yeah my first thought was when pigs fly! lol
ReplyDeleteI am glad YOU are good at researching stuff.
ReplyDeleteMethinks the most common search on my own computer is for pancreas', and not tongues...
hehehe
Please, no groaning, but it is always fin to learn new stuff!
If only you would have included the definition of 'prehensile'...
Love to you
XOXO
Me
Now what's the plural of pancreas?
Sweet SD;
ReplyDeleteThe wings do not look too filling.
(Talk about 'white meat' eh)?
You would have to kill many of those pigs for one teeny meal.
(Why am I thinking about crayfish from the river)... ???
I am afraid of taste buds, so I will stay out of the conversation to Mr. Khool.
XOXO
Me
Roberta who?
Lawrence looks like me when I was 8.
;-)
ReplyDeleteOne word Sweet Casey,
THERAPY.
XOXO
Me
Oh wait. You say it's lack of sleep...
ReplyDeleteHmmmm.... (ya think)?
You say Lawrence has seen more? You are probably quite right. But then again, I'll bet he never got attacked by a turkey, or bitten by a jackass either...
SissyKrissiePoo probably did those and more...
No worries about that sale either.
We got a lot done Sweet Casey... We just didn't sell anything.
hehehe
Love to you
XOXO
Me
ReplyDeleteMe too Sweetie!
Thanks for stopping by too!
XOXO
Anne
I LOVE your pics and when I'm finished commenting I'll just do the click thing on your links!!!
ReplyDeleteI so enjoy your "blags"..they've always made my day:)
When I saw your piggy pic I thought, "when hell freeze over"..something happened that no one can belive hehe
Have a terrific Monday and good luck with your sales xoxo
ReplyDeleteAND Sweet WyckieBaby, I so enjoy your comments.
I wish the luck wish for the sale, and the comment about something happening were true.
None such thing here.
Confession time now... I put the pic up just to get caseys blood going.
49 degrees right now-
The wind is blowing from the west.
A bit chilly to be sitting here with the window open.
I still have to bring water to Miss Milly- Am waiting for Kelli to bring Miller so I get a pic of her in all her Packers Glory!... The BUM! she got tickets to the game tonight!
(Well actually a friend of hers form work got them)...
love to you!
And I sure hope you enjoyed the pics of our baby Sam!
XOXO
Me
HOLY CARP!
ReplyDeleteI missed a bunch of comments above...
Need more caffeine...
And, I'm on it!
Sorry!
XOXO
Me
hehehe!
ReplyDeleteKinda reminds me of the little sparrow yesterday.
(Don't ask).
XOXO
me
ReplyDeleteSweet Thers;
9 times out of ten now I do remember to close the lid.
I had to hold it too many times to get rid of the paw prints...
And yes, the purple is darker than how the pic turned out.
Glad you liked the pictures!!!
XOXO
me
OH Sweet SissyKrissiePoo;
ReplyDeleteNot even CRAWL???
And then you, not talk??? (Hard to imagine THAT one)!
I guess that's why you didn't call me back!
hehehe
Jess / keeding-
Crisis has kinda passed.
sort of.
Not really.
I am not sure when Lawrence got so big. But he sure is!
As far as the spear question, I didn't want to think about it, so I have no clue!
Yes now, hang on- good idea.
I AM smoking something!
Salem Light 100.
No funny stuff, or I'll have to be in a crisis too.
sigh
XOXO
Little Me
Out of breath.
Placing hand on heart.
(Just even thinking about what you did)...
~
Mr. KhoolMan!
ReplyDeleteYes, fish have tastebuds.
They have to. How else would you explain that the goldfish and the others that are burried in an Altoids can somewhere, spit out some of their food and ate other bits of it???
XOXO
Me
PS
When I first glanced at your comment, it was a little after 3 this morning... And I surely didn't read 'tastebuds'...
hehehe
ReplyDeletehope I got everybody now...
sigh
XOXO
me
LOL Pigs can fly!! Oh my on those fish!! They sure don't look happy! I loved all the pictures you shared!! I hope your new week is going good so far! I am trying to catch up with everyone since I wasn't able to get on much over the weekend. I sure hope all is well with you! Hugs your way!!
ReplyDeleteSweet Sheri.
ReplyDeleteI still get a chuckle out of those pigs...
Please don't worry about all the catching up to do. You will, when you have the time.
XOXO
Anne
Now about the above mentioned fish, and other things:
ReplyDelete~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
xxooxxoo
From the deep south.
Yes we do know how to pronouce and speak down here.
You just have to speak and understand Gods language! I can interpret it for you.
The bigger one of the three is a red fish.
Not all red fish have the black spot on tail. Especially when the tail is turned away from the camera.The spot comes when they get bigger.
That is Evan, my sisters boy holding the big one.
The other two are called ruby red lips.
Because their lips look like they have on lipstick.
Yes that was spear for the shark.
We was down yonder on the gulf at Orange Beach, the city between Gulf Shores and Fl.
It was July 2008.
The adults that went out on the dolphin cruse did not have to have life jackets.
Maybe next year you and Casey (lil sister) can come and go with us.
What are y'all talking about? Lawrence is 100% Gaither. When I look at him it is just like looking in a mirror a hundred years ago
I was that skinny little kid.
Well he looks just like Blaine at least.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
God, I love William!
He can make me laugh, but always knows which end is up too!
XOXO
Anne
And he is really REALLY old!
ReplyDelete(Talk about the Fountain of Youth)! hehehe
Love ya William!
XOXO
Me
Whoops... Forgot to add almost the MOST imposrtant part...
ReplyDelete"Got to go for now, tell everyone thank you for all the kind words on my sons behalf."
William
