Tony was way tight during qualifying. Glad Jr will be toward the back with him because it gives them the chance to team up. Missy, are you laughing right now? I bet your at least smiling. :biggrin1: It sure didn't benefit Tony to qualify did it? Will do a rain dance for you Kim. This race is a biggy for sure. Did you see Jr on Trackside? We are huge OSU fans as well and they are playing the Longhorns. #1 and #2 ranked teams. Of course, OSU is #1. We will be using our Tivo for the football game for sure. The race comes first though. :biggrin1: GO SMOKE!!

Kim, you & your family have a heart of gold, not to mention your a Smoke fan. I would have more dogs if my DW would let me. It does take money when you take care of them properly by giving shots, heartworm/flea meds, and high quality dog food. Last but not least, there's the dog license. When you say White American Shepherd, is that a white German Shepherd? 3Loves had one growing up named Hitler von Ross. He was already named when they adopted him. I know he lived for many years. Will have to find out how long. He was very protective of the entire family. Great dog from what I hear. Nana, do you have your dog/dogs yet?

I can hardly wait. I am thankful for Tivo because I will have to record the game and watch the NASCAR race. It's a biggie this weekend. In the end, the Longhorns are going to be branded with Buckeyes anyway. What can we do about Madden? He's everywhere. He's even on the radio doing commercials. :phanvan He's gotta go.

I'm all for a Halloween exchange. We could give people 2 -3 weeks to sign up and that would still allow plenty of time for shipping. JMO. We love Halloween at our house. The boys make it so much fun. K@t did a wonderful thing by having Secret Stiffies. DREWS, you are the best!! I understand that things come up, but this was inexcusable. Princess, glad you got your gift on a day when you needed it the most. I hope all those missing gifts get their packages soon.

Hmmm....now who should I vote for on that poll? Let's see. :guess Don't tell Missy or my MIL, my vote will probably go for Gordon. Tony will not have to start at the back of the field at this point. You only have to go to the back of the field if you use a different car than what you use for qualifying. The car he's using has won at Martinsville. Qualifying is at 6PM EST. Jr will make the Chase. I feel confident of that. To be honest, Gordon will too this year. If Tony doesn't make it, I'm going to quit watching NASCAR and start watching my tomatoes grow. After all, it is so exciting.

Did I hear someone challenge me to a fart war? You don't want to go there...trust me.

Careful, those pots may not be tomatoes. They do use "grow lights" for that wacky weed, you know. Oh, glad I brought that up. Does anyone realize that drugs are not really a problem in the sport of racing? Another reason to love NASCAR. Someone did get banned from the sport a couple of years ago for testing positive. Can't remember his name.

You should have told the manager to expect the local news cameras outside her doors first thing in the morning. I bet that would have caused a stir. The manager should have been offering you a HUGE discount. Is it a chain? If so, I would contact the home office. Retail is too competitive to tolerate this attitude. Tell us the name of the store.

I thought this thread was dead.

Missy, I agree. I hope they never get politically correct and stay true to their roots. Is a "DA BOMB" something that hits the wall when going around a turn too fast? GO SMOKE! TOM, you know what I like about you? NOTHING. OK, that's a joke. I do like your sense of humor. You may seem a bit off to some, but you make me laugh. How can a Republican not like racing? Have fun with the tomatoes. Just a little hint to for your neighbor, he may want to plant them sooner in the year. Right now we're enjoying our ripe yummy tomatoes. We'll be thinking about you during the race. :heh:

Drews, we will pray for your husband. Sure sounds like you've both had a rough road to start your marriage. I hope this only brings you closer. You are right, good health should not be taken for granted. Great job on losing 1 pound! Take everything you can get. My DW lost 2 lbs this week so she's up to 14 lbs for the challenge and needs to take off 6 lbs by next week. We'll see. I'm proud of her progress regardless. Glad to hear you talked to Inamed like Kim said. That is a smart move on your part. It will be interesting to see where the leak is located and see who owns up to the responsibility. From what Steve said, it makes sense that a defective should not be installed. Kim, you seem so happy. Glad your doing well. Message delivered to DW. Thanks. My DW sends hugs to ALL. :couch2:

I haven't seen the movie yet and will probably wait for it to come out on DVD. Something tells me TOM that you are being a bit sarcastic. Am I correct? :couch2: If you are, I caution you to tread lightly in mocking NASCAR fans with.... NASCAR fans are legendary in their loyalty and I'm sure they won't take kindly to you mocking their sport or their fellow fans regardless of their driver. I can speak for myself & my DW for sure...NASCAR is an unparalleled sport with more to offer owners, competitors, and fans than any other sport I've ever known. I am proud to be a NASCAR fan and proud of our driver TONY STEWART a.k.a. SMOKE. You are truly missing out if your not a NASCAR fan. :biggrin1: With that out of the way, was the movie good? Did you get your money's worth? I hear from reviews that it is worth a few laughs. Is that true? Anyone else see the movie? BTW TOM, you should watch the race Sat night on TNT at 7PM. Your sure to get some action like you've never seen before. Oh, the big orange car with the Home Depot on the top will be the car to watch (hope I don't have to eat those words :nervous ). Pull your belts tight and LET'S GO RACIN' BOYS!!

Happy Birthday Pattman & picardy3! :happybday2: Hope you both enjoyed a wonderful day!

Hey, same here for my DW. Where can I find a support group for men dealing with raging hormones? Anyone?

I hear Tarell Brown was suspended. Still want to go with the Longhorns? This game is shaping up to be one of the biggest games of the year. Man, I can't wait to watch those Buckeye's kick some serious Longhorn butt. Sports Illustrated Poll Which team will win Saturday's No. 1 vs. No. 2 showdown? Ohio St. Buckeyes 58% Texas Longhorns 42% This poll is not scientific and reflects the opinions of only those Internet users who have chosen to participate. The results cannot be assumed to represent the opinions of Internet users in general nor the public as a whole.

Welcome to LBT! This is a great place for information and support. My wife had the surgery in May and had to jump through MANY hoops for that final approval. It is definitely worth it. I wish you the very best!

Hi Misty. Welcome to LBT and congratulations on your decision to get the lapband. I'm personally just starting my journey (researching insurance & such), but my wife had the surgery in May. She is doing terrific and would do it again in a heartbeat. I wish you the very best!!

Did anyone see this poll on NASCAR.com? I find it hard to believe that so many people think Kasey won't make the chase. If for one, think he will. Will Kasey Kahne make the Chase for the Nextel Cup? Yes, he's on a roll1737953%No, it's too little too late1518447%TOTAL32563 Votes

Hi Daniel, think of all the knowledge you have gained and how much different it's going to be this time. I wish you the very best!

The Water theory sounds reasonable for explaining women going into labor. My wife was to be induced with our first son and they had to reschedule her by one day because they had a rush on babies...women going into labor naturally. They were lined up in the halls and didn't have rooms for all of them. It was a full moon. So do people act weird on a full moon because they have water on the brain? I can tell it's coming. It's in the air.

Hi Mallorie. Congratulations on your surgery. My DW was a little sore in the neck area after her surgery. After discussing it with the surgeon, it was determined it was from positioning during the surgery. I encourage you to talk it over with your surgeon just to make sure it is not something that needs attention. Try a heating pad for the soreness and gas. It helps a lot. I hope you have a speedy recovery and I'm sure this will all be a distant memory.

Sounds like a great deal to me Jack. I've sold a Craftsman saber saw & Craftsman circular saw for $5 each at my own garage sale. Who needs a new one when it says Craftsman?

Myra, you should talk to your surgeon. It may benefit you to go on Prevacid or something of the sorts. 3Loves has been on it since surgery as a preventative measure. She has not experienced any pain, even after the fill. I'm wondering if your pain could be related to some type of reflux that is more noticeable when you are tighter. :eek: Good luck.

I'm a Pisces married to a Gemini

Thank you all for the kind words. Trust me, 3Loves misses you more than you'll ever know. It is very sad it all had to come down to this. Glad it's over though. DeAnn, did you ever reach your doc for a fill? Drews, what's the status of your port? Myra, what did they say about your port after your fill? I noticed a thread on here about outies. Have you seen it yet? http://www.lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?t=23065&highlight=outies Kim, 3Loves is thrilled to hear your fill has been a success!! To top is off, you already hit your Sept goal...WTG. My DW is doing great with her fill. It's that TOM so she's being very careful not to "challenge" the band right now. Just playing it safe as she says. Marci, you are just not having good luck are you? Hope you feel better soon. My DW had a horrible sore throat & aches yesterday. Started on antibiotics and it has helped tremendously in a short period of time. Great job Linda on hitting your goal!! You are a true success. I guess it's fair to say you ALL are. Well, I hope that I remembered everything. Until next time, take care.
