the garden is nice again

Yes, I agree Jim. I think that FG is once again on keel, and it's very enjoyable posting here now. I like a peaceful place to have fun. I'm so happy to see former members returning again.

Yeah, Jimbo............I feel the ambience once again. Let us all sit around the campfire and sing, "Cumbya". :guitarist:)

Seriously, I do like "nice"...but a little controversy among mature adults who respect each other is good too.

I don't know any of the oldies that left and came back seeing that I've only been around for about 2 months now...but I've loved being here from the beginning.:-4

So, in other words, it's a lil' too nice? Okay, let's go and dig up some old members to stir things up once again...

How's yer back, Hope? Wish I could zot over and help you shift those durn irrigation pipes. Really!! I might be a city girl, but I don't mind lugging stuff in the country if there's a mint julep under the magnolia tree afterwards.

my back is better than it was this morning, thanks for asking darlin! :-6

i wish you could come and help me with these pipes, we would sit out under the shade tree with our mint juleps in the heat of the day and just watch the world go by!

That sounds very nice, especially as I've just come in from a freezing roaring gale... brrrrrrrr... I bet it's blizzarding its little patootie off up in the mountains. Maybe that will blow out before I get there on Sunday. !!!!

ewwwwwwwww i hate cold weather! yuk!

btw whats this whole business about cucumbers that you and Carol had going?

i usually ask her my stupid questions when i don't understand things, which is quite often but shes not here right now! :wah:

Chezzie · Post by **Chezzie** » Fri Aug 15, 2008 1:01 am

Ok I googled Patootie:o

1.

A nice word usually used to substitute for "butt" or "ass".

Would I really try to cut up a brand spanking new flashlight? You bet your sweet patootie I would, if it's in the name of science.

2. patootie

a sweetheart, or someones sweetheart.

Justin is Wendee's patootie.

3. patootie

Patootie is "ass".

But "sweet patootie" is a term of endearment.

"I don't give a rat's patootie".

"You're my sweet patootie".

Now officially my new fav word, I love my patootie:-4

AussiePam · Post by **AussiePam** » Fri Aug 15, 2008 2:16 am

I came from another forum where the members were down right nasty. I found this site by accident and have loved it since day one. It's a great place to meet nice people, have some good conversation, and plenty of laughs to be found. I'm glad past members are returning and happy newbies are signing up. It's a great place to be :-6

There's a rather befitting quote from Eliezer Sobel's book, The 99th Monkey:

"He wanted to see us regularly, at $150 a pop. We left his office and in an epiphany, we both realized that we could save $600 a month if we just tried to be nicer to one another. It definitely works."
