the BREAKFAST CLUB

[royster]

THERE AUGHTA BE A THREAD JUST FOR COFFEE DRINKING IN THE MORNING.
Someone should start just such a thread. Maybe they will.
Good morning Shasah. We have a virtual heat wave here in Virginia; 43 degrees F expected as the high. Some good melt-down, though the last mile to my house is ice, and will be for the rest of winter. YUCK.

[royster]

Apparently I can't change the title of this thread, and I can't delete it, either. I'll just have to live with BEING A BOY NAMED 'SUE'.
the BREAKFAST CLUB is supposed to be the title, should any sympathetic MODERATORS decide to help out, here.

[royster]

don't you/ forget about me/ I'll be alone/ dancing, you know it, baby

This is the song Simple Minds wrote for the movie, "The Breakfast Club". I remember the movie well; I was in Indianapolis in September of 1983, moving from California to Washington, D.C. in a '73' Grelin I bought for $35.

The purpose of the visit was to see Grandma and two aunts. My cousin was there, too, and we went to see that movie. Someone ran a stop sign on the way to the theater and we got broadsided. No injuries, and we didn't even miss the movie. National Lampoon's "Vacation" was also playing (Chevy Chase) and we managed to see that another night.

"The Breakfast Club" was rather abstract, but it's sort of like this forum. And I've gravitated to having morning coffee here.

And now it's time to go to work.

[royster]

Time to go. But feel free to sit and have a cup or two in your morning...whenever YOUR morning is.

[Angela]

Just having my first cup here -- good morning!

Sorry I missed this, this morning but you KNOW that my brain is not fully functional until later in the day I am at lunch at work now but I still have coffee does that count?? And it looks like the moderators had mercy on you. What was the original name if I might ask?? LOL

Have a good evening. I should be out and about later. If not, I'll now be notified that the BREAKFAST CLUB has commenced

[Haigha]

Roy's original title was THE TAKE A TERRORIST TO LUNCH CLUB. Then a team of CIA operatives showed up with a giant fly swatter.

[royster]

Shasah, you know how I use the title block for notes? Well, I had put the words to the song there. I couldn't change it.
THANK YOU, MODERATORS!

And the reason you put "A Boy named Sue" lyrics there?? Wouldn't have something to do with a friend named Sue that everyone thought was a man for the first month or two she was here, would it??

How about this? Rooster Royster?

Here they come to snuff the rooster, oh yeah
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he ain't gonna die
No, no, no, you know we ain't gonna die

Alice in Chains anyone??

It's breakfast somewhere right??

[marinik]

Would anybody please explain what this thread is about and what am I supposed to do hear except drink my coffee and stare at the screen??? Just hit the con button if I am right!

Actually, no; it was about "acceptance" of having the thread read "don't you/ foget about me/ I'm be alone/ dancing, you know it, baby"...which I put in the FIRST post's title box, instead of "Breakfast Club". A kindly Moderator changed that.

So now it is appropriately titled as a thread for morning coffee before going out into the world, (to answer Marinik's question)...some exchanges of the day starting, as time doesn't allow for a whole lot of creativity. We have a whole day to think about that, and something to look forward to when we get home.

Perhaps I should just "get a life". For now, I'll just "get another cup of coffee".

First cup in hand and first post of the day. Unfortunately, not understanding the concept 100%, I have nothing witty to say

But, nevertheless, good morning!!

[royster]

Fear not; the caffine will kick in.

Good to see you. VERY happy about your good fortune! And also, we'll get to SEE Chaos and Deja.

Heat wave here! Expected high of 45 today. I'm still working locally, and that means my own bed at night in the Rat Hole, as opposed to having to be well-mannered in Alexandria.

So you know how to be well mannered?

It's supposed to be a beautiful weekend here so I plan on getting out and enjoying it. May just drive to what they call mountains around here and soak up some nature. Or just head to the local park. Not sure yet.

(first cup gone, time for the second)

[royster]

Yowza! Yer free asa BIRD today! Good for you! You might stop by LifeTimeLearner's yard sale and pick up a few items.

I forgot it's Saturday...for you. I work today, but only a partial day. I have a small adventure planned for this afternoon. Part of it is stopping by LifetimeLearner's yard sale, and picking up a few items.

Yes, trying to hook up with Lynnyrd Skynnyrd this morning, then meet Johnny Cash for lunch and mayhap dinner with Alice in Chains

So you'd travel how many hours for a yard sale?? It would only take me about 4 hours but how to get all the stuff I buy back here? I mean, really, look at my car

[royster]

Deep Purple...sorry, I'm old.

Actually, I don't know where LTL IS. But the manifestation worked for you, so it'll work for her, too.

Just got an A.A. call...friend in distress, but there's nothing I can do today. I bailed her out before, and can't help her today. It's a tough call.

There, but by the Grace of God, go I.

When I was 'courtin' Janice, we'd get into my Dodge Caravan and drive fro hours. What a great freedom to get to the intersection of the backroads, flip a coin to decide which way to go, then go. That kind of freedom doesn't come often, so I hope you enjoy every minute of it. Is Choas gonna flap ears in the wind out the window, or do you just get visitation rights?

A GIRL AND HER DOG ADVENTURE.

My clock is catching up with me...gotta head out, soon.

Spontaneity, what a wonderful word!!

Deep Purple, haven't listened to them in ages!! How about almost time to hit the Door(s)??

Khaos does not do well in vehicles, so I'm just utilizing my visitation rights

I too am heading out. Can you imagine, I'm actually going to the gym? I'm such a slacker LOL. Hope you have a great day!!! I have a feeling mine's going to be another where I get to use the word fantabulous.

[royster]

Many blessings go with you and everyone else.
We hope to see some fantabulous pictures.
Blue skies, green lights! See ya.

[royster]

p.s.
Put your BEST foot forward for your journey; check the water and oil in the car.

(Yes, Dear).

Let's drop all this huggy-huggy stuff and get down to the foundations: what are we having for breakfast? After 53 years of looking bleary-eyed across the table at somebody looking bleary-eyed back at me, it's time to pay more attention to what's on the stove, dammit.

Travellers and Europeans may be familiar with that queen of calories and Gargantua of grease, the FULL ENGLISH BREAKFAST. The most monumental one I ever attacked included, on a platter-sized plate:

small steak
lamb kidneys
pork sausages
bacon
black pudding
hash browns
fried egg
fried mushrooms
fried tomato
fried bread
baked beans

I didn't ask for seconds.

I'm sure the flight attendants were grateful for that.

How's G.O.D. these days?

[royster]

Hey Shasah! How'd the serendipity go today!?

Haigha, all I can say is, wow!! I have yogurt or toast with coffee for breakfast. Probably my most interesting was when I went to Japan. Fish for breakfast??? Or also in Japan, they served an American breakfast at one place. Eggs, toast, coffee, salad(?). So I put creamer in my coffee and just about spit the coffee out on the head honcho. Ends up that wasn't creamer, but salad dressing---oops LOL Still haven't lived that one down.

Today I could not find my camera So instead of going to see the dogs, I headed for the hills (literally). Drove to the closest mountain, on the way I found 2 art shops so of course I had to stop by. I found the most amazing painting!! And it's only $25,000 Luckily there is a lithograph that I can get for a much more reasonable price LOL. I plan to go back next weekend with my rolled coins to purchase it. (not one wheat penny in those rolls).

Then went to a lookout and enjoyed the view and some conversations for a while. Enjoyed it very much. Sunshine and peace with a view. Gotta love it!!

So, while I was driving, I decided I needed to manifest my camera back for when I visit the dogs tomorrow. And guess what? It was in my best friends car which she told me about 5 minutes after I got back Tomorrow, gym at 12, shower, and then go visit my doggies and get pics, all of which makes me happy

[royster]

MOST excellent! LifeTimeLearner had those prints at her yardsale, y'know...only $130.00.

Today was an interesting day, would be hard to describe, but I visited several worlds and took soundings. Yep; I'm right on the charts. So I'm good to go. Radar callibrated, instructions received and Love prevails again.

How DO you DO that??? The print I am going back to get, yup, you guessed it $130.00. Must have been one of those worlds!! (And I'm not making it up, it was posted at $160 and she came down to $130. She told me to remind her she said $130 because Anne is 83 years old and can't remember sometimes)

[royster]

I'm going to have difficulty with this joke, so...this might not work, unless you are familiar with "Prince"...

So you're going to buy the formal art known as Prints?

I sometimes have difficulty understanding some of the jokes but that one I got LOL.

Wish I had your talent with connections and words. (use that one for fodder why don't you?)
