I'll just give one other piece of advice, do not place a frozen turkey into the hot oil. The frozen ice crystals will not react nicely to this. Yes, I'm warning of this because someone has actually done it.

We all seem to be a bunch of food obsessed people lately. I'm right there with you. My mom always makes the BEST homemade fudge. She has a staunch rule about the fudge, though. She only makes it between the third week of November and Christmas. Good for me that she does, to be honest! A few years ago my husband's assistant at work got a batch for Christmas.

He tried in vain to convince my mom to start a tradition of making "Valentine's Fudge" or "Easter Fudge" because he couldn't stand to think about waiting a whole year for more. And we think that it's only women who get obsessed by chocolate! It's a standard joke in my family now, "Mom, how about making some Columbus Day fudge for us? Thanks for the praise! I do feel so enormously proud of myself for fixing old Dino the computer without help. To be perfectly honest, I'd have been glad to have kept my loaner computer forever, it was much nicer and more modern!

Oh well, comfortable old shoes are better than no shoes at all. Since you're already there due to the time difference, how's tomorrow looking for us? Well, I must go and cook supper. It's odd that I'd rather talk about cooking than actually do the cooking! Have a good night, all!

Product details

Not been on here for ages so sorry for all the missed birthdays. Barbie, is your mum secretive about her fudge recipe? If not, be sure to write it on the recipe thread. Has she ever done treacle fudge? I've seen many different flavours, but never treacle. Hands up who's just seen Jonathon Ross interview Stephen Fry. They talked about Harry Potter for ages: Jonathon and his family are fans. Most of it was stuff that's been mentioned before, but I hadn't heard about the envelopes passed to JKR.

Where's the best thread to give details? Shall I write it here? I'm thinking the JKR interviews and influence on our ideas thread. Good to see ya round the chat thread, mate! Good to see ya. I'll apparate over there right away. Sorry if anyone has tried and failed to e-mail me recently. I've sorted the fault out now. Just apparated back, this little titbit won't really fit on an established thread and it's not worth setting up a new one.

One of the assistants that accompanied her whisked it away before she touched it. This happened 17 times during one book signing. At the end of the session JKR asked the American assistants why they had grabbed the envelopes. If any of her next books included anything like the contents of the envelopes, then she may be sued.

I did it at least once. I got my permit in November and didn't get my license until the following July. My dad celebrating by buying me an utter wreck of a car to drive myself and siblings to school. It was so long that Squidboy used to make beeping noises when I backed up. There sure are some devious f-f-folk out there!

Good to see ya mate! I have a task that I must fulfill. I saw that we had many newcomers on the threads, and I'm hoping that they will be our new friends. So, here goes a massive Forum welcome to the following: Keep your quill handy, and draw up a chair. We're a feisty bunch, but we love our own, so check in often! I've finally made it back to the land of the fantasy living. I had a root canal earlier this week, and had a bad reaction to the pain pills they gave me, and haven't been able to get to the computer all week.

Can't catch up on all the news, but to touch on a few topics: We always roast our turkeys. My favorite is a citrus turkey. I generously rub margarine or butter if you prefer and dried orange and lemon peel on the outside and under the skin, then stuff the inside with peeled lemons, clementines, and oranges. Sometimes we'll change it up with a garlic turkey, following the same procedure, but with garlic outside and garlic cloves and onions inside the bird. It makes me a little sad that the movies used to be pretty empty, but now are crowded with families that can't find anything better to do together on such an important day for them.

Of course, its also sad that there won't be a new HP movie to see this year! I can't think of British food without remembering the episode of 'Friends' where Rachel makes trifle and puts in beef. Ahh, at least now we have 'Joey' to fill that empty 'mindless yet funny sitcom' void. Well, off to rinse with salt water again. Anyone have any advice for dealing with the tooth discomfort?

It depends on your taste. If you are even occasionally offended by anything, don't see this movie. It's got violence, graphic sex, and Kim Jong Il Personally, I thought it was the most hilarious thing I've seen in years. I'm sure in a theater full of people it'll be even more so. Marie is right about her first car. It was a tank--right down to the olive green color. All it was missing was the gun turret on top.

On the plus side, she was pretty much guaranteed to walk away from any collision not involving an wheeler. Nice to know I'm your favorite brother The banner's already been claimed by my wife, but I might be able to score a poster for you by Christmas if you're nice. I've found that alcohol helps. The tooth still hurts, you just don't care anymore. Thanks so much for your answer. I had always wondered what they could have been for Ron to try to entice Hermy with them. Now I think I might just go and look for some recipes to try and pull them off.

Have a look on http: It tells you how to make custard as well. I would never think of something like that! She has to be so careful and I'm sure even when she is, there's somebody wanting to sue her! I try not to make it any other time because it is too good and I am too bad.

I'll think of an HP angle and post in on the recipes thread if anyone is interested. Mike, aka Giant Squid, Almost a year later and I am still green with envy!! I did manage to score one of those lenticular wanted posters, so I have been appeased somewhat! Now I am going to have to try it.

I've actually lucked out in that I'm the only Pottermaniac at my location and our theater doesn't get the HP movies, so I can swipe stuff as soon as it arrives. Hubby will be working tonight so I will be running updates on the computer all evening. We're headed to Disney the first week in April. I'm going to bring POA because Hubby doesn't read the books and hasn't seen the movie yet. I want him to be prepared when I buy the DVD. We're driving from Ohio - with 2 children no less - I must be crazy!

Have a good weekend all! See you on the threads! What toothache, and why am I seeing so many cards??? Accio- Maybe call it Finnegan's fabulous Irish Fudge? Perfect for the World Cup or any wizard gathering! I can barely stand my kids in a car for the 45 minute drive to the butcher! For me, it's the only way to keep my sanity on our yearly trek to the beach.

We'll have to see what we can conjure up. I have successfully completed my update - it only took 4 hours - I hate dialup. It has saved us on many a cross-country car trip. So far it's just me and my friend Nikki but we're hoping to get more people coming. There are six others registered on the meetup site.

I think the fact that Nikki and I have been bringing our kids scares the younguns off, so for November's meeting my husband "volunteered" to watch them all. Our weather has been yo-yoing from 60's to 40's and so naturally I have a cough now. I've been drinking a lot of tea and thinking happy thoughts. I'm finding myself shivering and then berating myself--I grew up in North Dakota, where mid's is a heat wave haymoni, I was going to ask which Disney you're travelling to CA or FL , then realized it'd be a trek either way.

I just had such a super week and these things are not normal in my life and I just wanted to share Some people are really high powered "high flyers" sometimes I pinch myself and rarely have anything to say as it is all beyond me!!! High 60s in the day time and your shivering Mike? That sounds tropical as its in the low 50s here. I to have got used to slightly warmer temperatures that I grew up in.

Hooray for all the food related posts. We nearly went for the midnight blue dress with a cape. Thanks for the message Jack, you made my day. You're not crazy, you're adventurous. I'm going to let some of my ideas on child-rearing seep into the next paragraph. I'm not judging anyone, just telling what I found and what worked better for us, but if you get easily offended, just skip ahead. For me, the purpose of family vacation is: So electronic entertainment gets the kibosh, or at least, is highly limited. They are too isolating, and over-use actually increases tensions.

I know it sounds hokey, but, singing and storytelling games break up monotony better because it forces some interaction. If we do use an electronic boost, books on tape where everyone listens have an advantage over headphone games because it gives us common ground for restaurant conversation. When the kids were little, we used some intro to foreign language tapes with hilarious results; and when they were teens, we listened to lectures on history and business law which led to some very interesting discussion.

A Feed the Geek philosophy of child-rearing. One potentially stressful situation actually turned out as a blessing in disguise due to vacation circumstance. Family modesty levels are often less than normal when everyone is sharing a motel room or staying in a friend's home. We were on a road trip to the Pacific Northwest and over miles from home when my daughter, then 20 months old, sees our friend's child who is a year older being potty trained.

My daughter, who was born with a bit of an you-can't-stop-me attitude, decides she can do that! And she pretty much did. It was the easiest potty-training ever and our biggest problem was finding underwear small enough for daytime. She was tiny and they don't make a 1yr. So you see, Haymoni, what might look crazy on the surface sometimes isn't. Sorry I haven't been participating much in the chat these past few days.

I have three midterms this week one of which is tomorrow! I just got off the phone with Betty. She asked me to let you all know that she's back in the hospital. Her most recent round of meds wasn't doing the trick, so she's back in to try something new. I wish it were better news. Is there anything we could do or send to our forum mom? Good luck on your midterms. Missy, I was thinking of making the fudge a Finnigan family recipe. I work on posting it! Last time she was in the hospital we had flowers sent to her. If you guys are willing to help do that again, and by willing to help I mean contribute to the cost shoot me an email or an IM pinstripers16 hotmail.

Also feel free to email or IM me if you have any other ideas. Well I am back from my vacation to the mountains. My parents and I had a wonderful time, it's so pretty in Telluride. Plus its fun to ride the gondola. Hey, I am easily amused. I found some great Thanksgiving recipes in Parade magazine a few years ago. I have done Thanksgiving a couple of times and it turned out well. I love that green bean casserole, so easy too. Well I am back to using an iMac.

I haven't used it in over a year, been using PCs only. So I need your help Mac people out there. To make all those nifty avatars I need a graphic editor and I just have a graphic viewer. I will also need something that can make thumbnails. I am looking for something free. If you do have any ideas let me know, my e-mail address is under my profile. Send Betty our best Julia! That goes for me, too! All the best, Betty. And get well soon! While that may seem like a pro-PC statement, it has been echoed by my cousin, who swears by Macs A big cyber-hug to Betty, of course.

Hopefully they can find the right mix of meds for her soon. Oh, and good luck on the midterms, Julia. I can vaguely remember those from the dark past when I was in school, and they kinda sucked. I am pleased to finally have enough freedom to post properly. My mother-in-law is gone, and to all who really know me, you will understand what this means. Chemyst, I read your post about child-rearing and trips with fascinated interest, as we have had our own travel challenges. I am pleased to have an ally against the automatic "tv in the car" thingy.

We had a child who, for the first 28 months of her life, no matter what, screamed in the car non-stop. Neighbors recommended getting an in-car TV as the solution, but we figured that since our oldest child was already half-nutso listening to the screaming, trying to watch TV over it wouldn't help much. Also, unbeknownst to these friends, we aren't big TV watchers at our house. So hubby, being the cute cheapo that he is, thought, "Why buy an appliance that we don't use IN the house? So on long car trips, we listen to Harry Potter books or other good books on CD.

So there is a happy ending after all! Cheers to Betty, and feel better; Hi to all my friends who have posted; and Hi to all the friends who haven't posted yet, and the new friends I haven't met yet! This weekend, we went to a Cub Scout camp out that was 40 min away. Over the summer, we drove from TN to UT and back with 6 in the van with me.

I think we may be going back again in the summer of since it will be the bigger family reunion, my grandmother's family rather than just my mom's family. This means we get to see extended cousins, aunts, great uncles etc. It is really cool to see the resemblances between every but a bit unnerving when you are getting a soda from the cooler and someone who you don't know exclaims "You have to be Kathy's daughter! We got to hear wild cats, coyotes and owls as well as assorted other woodland creatures during the night. It was muzzleloading season and even though we were on a protected area, there were still poachers.

The ranger had an attack when he realized that we were hiking in an area where he knew there were poachers. We were hustled back out of there quickly. Apparently he didn't think we would go down there and for whatever reason, decided to not go chase off the poachers. We had a great time, we did a scale model of the universe using tissue paper and rocks, we had a contest to see who could find the most unique 4 complete items that would fit on a penny without touching one another or overlapping, we played games, we had a puppet show and learned a lovely song called Road Kill Stew it was that or Ruff, the Tragic Maggot We are already planning a Winter Camp Out.

Now, I am off to try to read a few threads before calling it a night! I haven't posted here in a long while. I am still kicking around. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Julia, the day is not over yet. But I might wish I hadn't lived it after tonight. I remember with fondness the "mixed up sign" song. The child sleeps tonight I hope you sleep, also. Our 10 year olds lead the group to help them learn it and then we sang it a few times.

First you go down to the interstate, You wait for the critter to meet its fate, You take it home and you make it great, Road kill stew, Road kill stew. Lady Arabella Prefect Posts: I understand completely, as well as buying a new truck, we are also beginning the home search. Oct 18, 8: It is always nice to have new ideas on the Forum! Amber--I am the mother of three great kids, the youngest of which graduated from high school in June. For me, the older my children got, the more I really liked them as people. Life with a youngster is still vivid for me, though, and I send you all the patience and prayers that I can.

Hint--Take a nap when he does!

Gypsy--I had a friend in high school who wanted so much to go to Australia that she married an Aussie and moved down there. The marriage didn't last, but she stayed on at his family's ranch and continues to live Down Under to this day. One day soon, I hope to get down there to see your wonderful country. Edit MzWhizz, I moved this from the introduction thread. That thread is ONLY for introductions, please post any comments or greetings to those introductions to the Chat thread.

Welcome to a wonderful forum I have something in common with both of you. If that is your real name, then that is what we have in common, I'm an Amber too Gypsy: I am a fellow Australian Harry Fan! When we moved out here our slam-dunk two week escrow took two months to close during which time all the jobs were taken. Three years later we re-financed, only to deal with the same thing weeks to months. The first time it was the escrow company; the second time it was the loan officer--a now-former friend of my mother-in-law.

Here's hoping you get to move in before Thanksgiving! After my stay at home and study-week I got so hopelessly far behind on the thread it took days to catch up. I didn't want to Obliviate, because then I always miss out on important things going on. I hope she gets better again soon. Welcome to the forum, all newbies. You have found your true home here, I'm sure!

I've lived in here for almost a year, and I can say I have never been in a friendlier forum family. You know, when we were kids, we were usually really nice to each other. We used to go on extended-family trips all around southern Norway and to Denmark, never any fighting. But when we turned Let's just say that my cousin once removed and me, who had been best friends since we were 3 suddenly weren't best friends anymore.

Nothing really happended, we just grew to think the other one was hopeless. It took most of high school to get us on speaking terms again. We are friends again now, however. It really is an exhausting process, my biggest question is this: Why is it when I gave people my work number to call, does everyone from the bank, the real estate agent, and the inspection company insist on calling my home number and leave messages for me at home asking to call back right away?

Don't they realize I'm at work? Isn't that the reason I gave them a work number? Thanks for letting me vent.

Hubby is out of town today so I had to cancel my meetings and quit being a Slacker Mom. Can't get in to the doctor for another hour so I thought I'd pop in here and say hello. Jack - home ownership is worth the headaches, but I don't understand the telephone number thing either. We have cell phones, work phones - why do they insist on calling home? It kind of scares you. If they are so stupid that they call the wrong number, why do we continue to do business with them? Have a butterbeer and "take a deep breff" as Daughter says when I'm losing my cool. No time to read over posts, so my most humble apologies.

Just wanted to stop by to say I'm still job hunting, but at least I have internet service and email at my home now. I have changed my email address here on the forum I need to get back to searching for employment? Oh, all right, but running out of money is sooo much fun! Gee, that's something my kids haven't had in a while. Now I've jinxed it and they'll both come home with gunky eyes. Now Michael, it was '76 that we drove from Missouri to North Dakota. I remember that we made up a song that supposed to quiet Bekki down but actually made her cry harder.

I also remember you singing "Rhinestone Cowboy" for most of the trip. Slacker mom item Have bought frozen peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to put in the kids lunchboxes. They thaw out in an hour and are ready to eat by lunchtime. I would love to join the auntie group. I have had that problem as well with people calling me at home.

I almost passed out with shock when I bought a new cooker from a company that understood that a mobile means that I am not at home. You have my sympathy with buying a new home. The last time I moved I was selling and buying at the same time. I was a wreck. No, I'm alive and still a Muggle and I've been too busy to post.

Please post a pic soon! Long car rides, I know the feeling, except my little sister and I are usually the ones doing the bickering. My parents liked it more when she slept the whole ride. I shall leave you with this: As such, I am duty bound to be a Yankee "fan" if I must identify myself as a fan of any type.

I haven't heard from Julia in a while? I hope she's alright. I, too, hope that Julia hasn't gone missing! Two kids home sick with some icky respiratory thingy. Poor Hayley and therefore mom has been up since 4 a. Even the puppies are sleepier than usual today. I keep chanting to myself: Don't get it; don't get it; don't get it.

Well, to chime in on the baseball rivalry, hubby and I are aligned with the Red Sox. Off to make some tea to stay awake until an appropriate bedtime. Have a good evening. Good luck job hunting. I am having lots of fun too watching the money roll right out of my bank account. I gets lots of helpful advice from people saying "Oh but you did save up lots of money just in case this happened right? I too have gone through the joys of home buying and the ever fun re financing. It's all stress now but it will be worth it when you finally own your own home. Plus, there is the tax write off.

Haymoni and Catherine, I hope the kids get better soon! I hope the two of you stay healthy, because if it's anything like my house, it really doesn't matter if mom becomes sick! I still have to take care of everybody. ICThestrals and Padfoot, I'm sending employment charms your way! And Acceber, I'm rooting for the Red Sox for nothing else than just a change of pace. Louis is going to win it all anyways, so it really doesn't matter. Being from Cleveland, it is hard watching Manny Ramirez in someone else's uniform, but I wish him all the best.

I will be home tomorrow with the Pink-Eyed Daughter. It is right before my busiest time of year at work, but maybe I'll get started on the packing for Disney World. It's been a really disgustingly busy couple of weeks. They told us teachers not to search the web "for fun" any more at work.

Now I'm only supposed to look things up about the things we're studying in school "The Outsiders" is next; good book. Nonetheless, sorry for once again zipping ahead to recent entries, but hopefully everyone is doing wonderfully! I'm rooting for the Red Sox too, but if not them, Houston. I don't want St. Louis How my St. Louis relatives would torture me! I am now about to give birth to a brand new baby ulcer.

Second, please no "pics" of your new baby ulcer? Here's hoping you and Cynde both have the best luck in getting a job. One that we'll all be jealous of when you get it!! Well, part of our state got hit with some severe storms yesterday -- there were some bad thunderstorms and a few tornados. Luckily none here in my area, but it was bad in the lower half and eastern side of the state. FYI for those who are "thinking" about trying to fry their 1st turkey here soon.

Which I highly recommend!!! That way, when we are ready to fry the thawed out turkey we know exactly how much oil to add without it overflowing. Paul Newman and a ride home. Talk about ruining a perfectly good book with a movie! Dally was supposed to have an elfish face and hair so blonde it was almost white - Matt Dillon???

Patrick Swayze as Darry was good, but you couldn't get close enough to see his eyes. Book-Darry had eyes like ice. Diane Lane was pretty good as Cherry - how pretty is she??? Hinton the author who wrote the book in her teens as I recall actually played the nurse that Matt Dillon is hassling. I'm pretty sure I swiped a paperback copy of that book from my high school. It has to be around here somewhere, along with my black-handled switchblade.

The internet connections at UConn are working just fine.

As Accio Sirius mentioned, I do indeed have midterms this week, two of them tomorrow in fact. I've been studying in a very Hermione like fashion, although I've been lurking all along. I realized that the playoffs bring out the worst in me and I don't like it very much, that combined with frustration and midterms is making me not happy right now. My only real experience is basketball and I've been a Laker fan for over 20 years. What's more, I'm tiring of pointing this out. Anyway, I always found myself a much better sport when the Lakers were clinging to a series lead than when they were up or Don't put it off 'til later, cuz I'm sure you're a first-rater!

Ok, now I'm sleepy and old, because positive reinforcement is just not not my style. I am far too much of a kid myself to even consider bringing one into the world. He or she might try to play with my LEGOs or read my comic books! I remember that movie, mainly because Marie was a squealy teenybopper when it came out.

It's the same reason I know the lyrics to Duran Duran's entire catalog up to their first breakup, anyway. They had the radio on the 80's station at work recently, and I found myself singing along to "Save A Prayer"; it was most embarassing. I'd just like to say I'm back. Best wishes for all the birthdays, celebrations I missed but I had to use the cheat button mark as read to get along with this thread.

Off to lunch it's Everyone has a good day. Jack - hang in there too, the completion makes it all worth it!! Septentrion - pleased you had a good time. We all have our flahsback moments. My freshman roommate in college had a Duran Duran poster, and sadly, I didn't mind at the time. I may have even gone to see them in concert, but I can't be sure--I may be repressing that memory. I've been on a Cheap Trick kick lately, trying to recapture those moments of dancing around the room with high school friends and squealing over Tom Petersson who just by the way, in his prime, could have played Sirius.

I try not to regret too much from my past as it is pointless, but I'm glad nobody has pictures of me from a Journey concert. Anybody else trying to repress an embarrassing concert event from their youth? I liked Journey, but I went to the 2nd concert to see Bryan.

I saw the Stray Cats. It had been raining and a mudslide had formed on the lawn - what a riot! I don't choose to forget my 7th grade obsession with Duran Duran and how many times best-buddy Lisa and I watched the Hungry Like the Wolf video we taped from Friday Night Videos because MTV hadn't made it into our neck of the woods yet. Those were good times that we laugh about. If I really dredge up the "need to be forgotten" memories, I might think about, in the same year, that some friends and I performed to the song "Freakazoid Robots" in the middle school talent show.

In one of them, we all dressed up for the Headbangers' Ball. Our attire consisted of dog chains, leather, ripped clothes, bizarre hairstyles, and anything too tight and too short that would give our mothers apoplexy. I can't believe that we actually went out like that. What WERE we thinking? Have a great Wednesday. How could you ever have been such a dork Catherine? I was cleaning out my closet and found a jean jacket waaay in the back that I had cut into a vest.

My concert pins from Stray Cats and Journey were still on it. Did anyone have a GQ Wall in college? We would buy "Gentleman's Quarterly" does that magazine still exist??? Needless to say, we often had to go to the library to study! Off cource I was 15 in , during the boring mid-nineties. I barely owned any clothes that werent black, army green, brown, grey or I also used mascara in my eyebrows, and went to school looking like that.

Add glasses, acne and braces, and you get the picture that 15 wasn't my prettiest age. Maybe I'll post a picture of myself at that age once. I'm off to join Winky in numerous bottles of butterbeer. This is what I get for sharing. You'd think I'd learn my lesson! It was very brave of you Catherine. I'm sure if someone dug far enough, there would be something on Loopy. I will admit just about all of my college misadventures, but since I minored in photo-journalism, I was the one taking all of the pictures, so there is no hard evidence on me.

I only gave a website because I like to back up my statements with proof; I knew I was right to begin with being an insufferable know-it-all and everything. And no, that was not me at the Huey Lewis and the News concert in ' Oh, and here's more. I was sooooo busted this weekend.

I was taking my 15 year-old niece to her grandmother's. I was trying to do the bonding thing by agreeing with her that I totally hate Avril Lavigne however you spell that chick's last name too. Anyway, my niece, who always has control of the radio, was flipping through stations and I said "Oh wait, I like that song" at one point. I had no idea whose song it was, but you guessed it.

I had just told her to stop on one of Avril's little ditties.

I had a ticket for Fleetwood Mac, but had to sell it to a friend, as I developed a stiff neck. I don't know what was more painful - the stiff neck, or missing the Fleetwood Mac concert! Stevie Wonder and Ringo's All Starr Band are ones I'm still wanting to go to; but I don't even know if they're touring over here in the near future But, as they say, each to his own! Its an excellent book, which I'm looking forward to teaching. I agree that the movie is off a bit, especially as far as Dallas goes; Matt Dillon is too all-american for that part. Dally is supposed to look meaner than that.

What do you think about the karate kid playing Johnny or that kid who plays Ponyboy? At least, mostly, they stuck to the plot unlike SOME movies. I just finished showing the kids the movie "Charly" based on "Flowers for Algernon". Egads, it features Charlie going off on some motorcycling free loving self-discovery journey! Tears for Fears recently got back together too. I tried to get tickets but alas, earwax, I failed. Anyone here besides myself guilty of wearing "side ponytail"?

Just to share in the embarrassing youth stories, one of my first concerts was in '88 when I went and saw Bros does anyone remember them??!! Oh the joys of youth! Thomas Howell seemed a bit strained in this movie. He has developed into a very good actor though. And, yes, I did wear a side ponytail - how about the endless braiding? Well, if I must be included in this collection of geeks then I'll out myself too.

My first concert ever was Michael Jackson and his brothers on the Victory Tour. My girlfriends and I had a slumber party afterwards. Simon was last because his hair was shortest. I was down the shore with a friend when Live Aid happened, and we were crabbing and flounder fishing that day and we made her Dad bring the transistor radio out on the boat so we could listen to it. I did get to see The Hooters open the show, which was a big deal since they were Philly Boys. I was purchased by a cadre of students and some teachers, who all chipped in to save me from the "Freak" guy.

Aside from carrying 6 people's books and getting their lunches I had to perform on stage. I was dressed all in "Pleather," with studded belts and boots, hair teased out and Adam Ant make-up on, lip-synching "Hopelessly Devoted to You" while dancing with a giant stuffed mouse. Now I don't feel like the only freakazoid on the Forum! He also saw Live Aid there. Speaking of the State Fair, I am looking forward to it. Where else can you eat yourself sick, ride things that make you sick, pet smelly animals and watch VERY interesting people? To this day, I still don't think my mother knows that I went.

I was "going to a friend's house" for the night. We had some horrible seats, but we danced like idiots the entire time even though we were the only ones dancing in the nose-bleed section. It was quite fun. Hope everyone is having a great day! I will also admit, I still have a soft spot for Jon, especially since he cut his hair!

I will also admit that when I went to my first Blue Light Disco a disco for kids run by the local police I was 13, I wore a black mini skirt, with knee high black and white striped socks, and doc martin shoes, and white t-shirt, I had my hair in a low pony tail with a huge piece pulled out of the front in a long curl hanging down the side of my face, my sister helped me get ready and we both thought I looked sensational!

I look back now and thank god no-one took my photo! Back before he developed a conscience and got political, I was all over John Cougar. But alas, earwax, his sex appeal exited stage left when the name "Mellencamp" entered stage right. I have all his early albums, even the self-titled debut which has him sporting a pouty, made-up, Billy Idolesque look.

On the album he sings "I Need a Lover", which, would you believe, he wrote and Pat Benatar did the cover. Mind you, I only went to see Journey because John Cougar was the opening act. And if you think one's as bad as the other, I assure you, you are wrong. Their big album Slippery When Wet came out a year after I was born. I love 'em, even if Jon is responsible for that whole hair thing Alas, I have no more 80s music story considering that when they ended I was five. I love Duran Duran to this day. I adored Billy Idol I actually own quite the collection of 80's pop compilations.

I have a thing for Robert Palmer in the worst way. He is Simply Irresistible. Color me clueless, but what does "Rebel Yell" really mean? I wish I could come too! I love the NC state fair! Do they still have the performing tigers right next to the chicken barn? You can see those tigers drooling Be sure to watch the animal races I think they had goats, ducks, and other assorted animals. Oh yes, and be sure to find the maple sugar cotton candy in one of the exhibit halls. And the fellow selling that cool slicer kitchen gadget? It's not really as cool as he makes it look. This may be a historical "urban legend," so if it is incorrect, I will stand to learn something.

In a modern setting, without the historic connotations, I suppose it could be thought of as a rallying cry of the underdog against the mighty, or ruling forces. The first "real" grown-up roller-coaster I ever rode was called "The Rebel Yell" and, to my eight year-old self, it seemed rather frightening.

Flannagan, who took me on this roller-coaster over his wife's protests! Good night to all. I'm off to the fair tomorrow, so I need me rest! However, I will not post that here. What does Billy Idol sing about Nothing like fun and excitement in the neighborhood! This afternoon, a friend came over with her kids so we could canvas my neighborhood selling popcorn for Cub Scouts.

On the way back, we came to a house that had an alarm going off. We could smell smoke. We looked around the house, it appeared to be vacant and had a for sale sign. We decided to be cautious and called I clearly told the operator that the house appeared to be vacant and that while I could smell smoke, I could not be sure it was from the house or from outside in the neighborhood somewhere. I did say the alarm was going off. I was concerned that maybe some kids broke in there and set something on fire. Well, within just a few minutes, 2 fire trucks and an emergency response vehicle came screaming into the neighborhood.

Naturally, all the neighbors came out to see what the fuss was and I found out THEN that the alarm has been going off since Tuesday! The real estate agent had been called loads of times about the alarm from various neighbors I am only 5 houses down and never heard it. Wanna bet he gets his butt out there and turns it off now? I feel bad that the fire department came out for nothing but I also felt it was better to err on the side of caution.

The firemen were very nice, talked to the kids and told them to come down to the station for a tour. The smoke we smelled was coming from behind the house, in another yard. Not a salad shooter. It's a flat thingie that slices random objects into thick or thin slices, and can also cut potatoes into french fries. It can be handy Serendipitously, it ties in with talk of State Fairs. And yes, Marie was there too. Though I later went on to become a metalhead and a fan of QR's music, I have to say that to this day they were the worst live act I've ever seen. We booed them off the stage.

I will also freely and proudly admit that I have seen Warrant live three times The Kiss shows were better, although spandex does not look well on year-old men. Oh, and I'd like to echo ShelterGirl: I would have posted earlier, but I was trying not to throw up. I am not exaggerating. It was hard, but in the end my dinner stayed where it was supposed to.

I did however, have trouble breathing, but, thank G-d, I'm still alive and my breathing has returned to normal. On that note, sweet dreams everyone, I'm going to sleep. I never got to see Warrant, I don't think they ever made it to Australia, but I was a big fan, and as for Kiss, I just recently saw them here, and even though they are now about , they where great! Also another concert i loved was Aerosmith, I was in love with Joe Perry even though he was old enough to be my dad!

They used to do shows there quite a lot before they hit it big so there might be some truth to that story.
