Quite a few cool (for NE speakers cool means good/great but also out in front, ahead of the curve) things in the last few weeks. A few that come to mind, Dylan, Jim's son and my nephew in training for the military, Boom's hubby, three eggs in the eagle's nest, spring may be coming, Alan and Joan's ambassadorship, Kaarien's back, Bob (well at least in his little mind) and I'M GOING TO BONAIRE NEXT WEEK.

I'm sure there are others.

And for those that insist on quantifying everything, the accepted units for coolness are Fonzies.

Cecil.....what is the scale for Fonzies? Are they like stars? or the richter scale? or 1-10? We NEEEEEED more info!!!



LaDonna

Cecil, all of that is cooooool......

I believe it is called the "Potsie scale" LaDonna..
Cecil can you elaborate on the exact data??

I have to chime in here and copy Cecil -
I'm going to Bonaire next week too

Oh yeah, and all that other cool stuff too!

And Cecil... I see in another thread you're on the Delta Atlanta flight - so is my dive group! We'll be the extremely pale group from Wisconsin running to meet the connection!

That's so COOL that both of you will be in Bon at the same time.

Yippee Becky girl......that is beyond COOL!!

Becky we'll be waiting at the gate for you, rested and excided. We can compare paleness.

As far as the Fonzie scale I believe it is a bit subjective, although it seems a 1-10 scale makes the most sense. With a ten being Fonzie in the early shows and 5 being when he jumped the shark.

The ultimate in coolness has to be when Fonzie was out in the wild and the critters were making a huge racket, and he went Heyyyyyy and all was quiet.

Good morning Cecil.and all how arrive later.
thanks for update,me behind no time,but can not resist to answer.if i stay longer at this laptop i will be fired lol.
hope the boys doing great at militair training.respect to them.soon they will man.

hope spring comes soon,Alan and Joan ambassadorship,gratulations.

WISH YOU A GREAT TIME ON BONAIRE,LUCKY YOU.

Cecil...that "quantifies" it quite well thank you!! LOL



LaDonna

To really ADD to the coolness.....

Cecil and Becky.....on Fri 3/21.....we need to plan to get together, before you guys leave! We could do a late dinner,(we are going on a "full moon sail") or lunch?

LaDonna

NEXT WEEK! Are you packed! Is there room in the luggage!
I talked to Captain Don's yesterday...is that considered cool

Kaarien,
Sorry you've got lots of dusty renovations going on; I know it will be hectic but SO worth it in the end

Three Musketeers are doing well; new pup is assimilating nicely although still a demon

Don't get fired unless it's a firing that will land you in Bonaire LOL!

Hugs to you, girlfriend!

Last night I packed one piece of luggage, plum full, with things for my boy & others at Hoppner and the animal shelter. Don't think I can fit a f&rt in there LOL! That has to be cool? My countdown is still double digits though waaaaa.

TO BAD no volunteers.can blame You.
Kobi You make me laugh with Your little demon.
Great Kobi You can read my mind.fire for Bonaire.
Hugs to You to.peep in later first to BT.

HAVE ALL A GREAT TIME.

Cecil and Becky, way too cool. I wish the hell I was going to Bonaire right now. My cool is going up to Connecticut for the weekend to spend a couple of days with some very old cool buds, doing some very cool things. Tonight is the Marine Corps Mess Night that I talked about on another thread. It should be hilarious. I'll take pictures and try to figure out how to post them when I get back.

Kaarien..enjoy your day...
Jim you must be so proud...looking forward to seeing the pictures!

Meryl and Jim that's cool. This is pretty cool.

I am so very UnCool with no plans for Bonaire this year!!!
But I may be shopping for dive gear this weekend if all goes well. Another event may cancel this shopping trip, but I'm hoping it won't.
Since I can only dream of diving I'll attach a cool picture I took while diving. See if you can guess which wreck it is.

Budweiser? I have no idear for real though, Linda

Hey, have fun shopping; make me proud!!!

I have a "cool" today. My daughter is coming home from Maui for a 10 day stay! Very cool for us!

Happy COOL day everyone!

LOL, I'm just EARLY & ready for happy hour though

Now Gail.....that tops the COOl scale in my book for sure! Enjoy every minute of that time together!!!

That is very cool Gail.

I forgot one other very cool thing, I love the chatting in the pictures on the cam threads, Very cool.

All you people here are cool.

Including you Jerry! Have a cool day

The Tibbits off of the Cayman Islands.

The last of the snow in my parking lot.

Gail, I agree with Kobi, that is off of the cool chart.

Can I inject a "WOO-HOO" here? Gonna anyway. Spoke with my sister Marilyn (aka Mayo) for over two and a half hours last night. Hard to say "Good night" and hang up the phone when her reason for calling was to tell me that HER latest test came back clean Mayo is a survivor of breast cancer, next month is her official SIXTH YEAR ANNIVERSARY That girl is going to be crushed by hugs from her bros when we are all together at Pam's and my place on Easter Life is good, hell no - LIFE IS GREAT!!!

Now that is very cool Tom.

Tom - That's extremely COOL!!

LRAZ,

The Tibbits are a VERY prominent family on Cayman. Did you mean off TO the Caymans? If so, are they any relation?

If you did indeed mean off of, why is that cool?

I know everyone is thinking the Hooker, but is that a pic of the destroyer off of Brac?

Tommy - That tops the cool list!!!!!!!

I was wearing my Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Tee shirt, with the words Volunteer across the back. Now I'm even prouder knowing our efforts are working!

The snow melting is cool but a breast cancer survivor is definitely 10 Fonzies.

Tommy - That tops the cool list!!!!!!!

I was wearing my Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Tee shirt yesterday, with the words Volunteer across the back. Now I'm even prouder knowing our efforts are working!

Jerry, that's d*mn cool.......

Here's my COOL (I miss BH).....
Al went to Utah yesterday and traded our '03 for an '08 Ultra. Because of weather and a TRIP TO BONAIRE ...leaving in 10 DAYS ...we won't be riding until the end of April.

Tom,,,tops da cool thang with me!
Cool Bike
Cool temps...(don't count your chickens yet though)
Cecil..love that animation..how true

Tad I think Linda said it was the wreck of the Tibbetts off of Caymans

Tad,
It's been a few years since I took that photo. I couldn't remember which of the three sister islands it was sunk off of. The Keith Tibbits is a Russian destroyer sunk off of Cayman Brac.
I thought it was cool because I was diving the wreck.

Tom,

That is WAY COOL!! All families deal with cancer, and when your sister, or anyone else, smacks it in the face, and tells it to get the hell out, well........that does indeed make my day!!

Ever heard of a mortgage burning party? Dad has been cancer free for 18 years, and when he goes in for a checkup, and comes back clean, we have a diagnosis burning party. Got the original from the doctor.

May sound sappy, but everyone tears up, thanks God, and then gets smashed!!

Freddie,

I think you are implying I don't read my lesson plans, which I don't!! I need to pay more attention... my bad!!

Like Jimmy B said back in the 70's, I don't want to hear that Sh...t in the middle of the album!! All I care about is that one song!!

I've dove it twice, but from Little Cayman. Always stay with Gladys at Pirates Point. Never stayed on Brac.

LRAZ, and here I thought it was the bow of the Titanic.

Wouldn't that be something to see!?

TOM!!!! BIG WOO H*LL YEA HOO's coming your way for you and your sister

This is a wonderful thread.......I can feel the cool love

Doing a Happy Dance for Tom and Gail; that's cool

Started the day off with a walk on the bluffs with my trusty old dog; that's cool

Got to kiss the hubby as he came home from work and I left for work; that's cool

Not being jealous and instead feeling excited for all the BTrs heading down to paradise; that's cool

Starting my work day with this thread; that's cool

It's FRIDAY!!!!! That's way cool

Tom, that is beyond cool news! Please tell Marilyn (aka Mayo) congratulations!! I love hearing cancer stories with happy endings. I just had my Relay for Life meeting last night and met a couple new cancer survivors. One man has battled three different cancers and has an amazing, strong spirit.

Linda, that is a very nice Bike!!

Jerry, we have about two inches of snow coming down right now and suppose to get around 8-10 more before it's all done. I just had to go pick the kids up early from school.

Now how did I get a double post? Trying to do many things at 1 time I guess.

We have some bad weather blowing in later. I hope it's after the plane with my precious cargo has landed....

I'm happy for the Bon bound folks, too. Meet up and have a REAL Bonaire mini-meet!

Where's Pegi Sue today? She and I overlap this July..... we'll have to get in a dive together!

Time to get in a quick shower and head for the grocery store......

Pegi Sue posted on Facebook that she can't access BT. I don't know why, but she said she was going through withdrawal.

Bosses who block sites at work is very uncool ............... -99 Fonzies.

Thanks Tribs.

I don't know how "cool" this is.....but.....

I have tons of music on my computer, and I listen to it while I work, I just put it on random play and let it go......well......

it just finished playing "I'm in the mood" by John Lee Hooker....and the next song up??

"I'm not in the mood" by Shania Twain!

My computer has a split personality!!! LOL


LaDonna

John Lee Hooker -- that's cool

Bosses who are in the same skin as you and still block you from BT --- scarey!!! PegiSue come home!!!

It's all cool!!!!

Spring hit here in a big way, nice to see several people returning to the sport, especially when they are people I was lucky enough to witness/assist when they became certified in the early 90's. This "busy" is cool - to me

Signing off now, have a great night all, will talk with some of you tomorrow.

Good night Tommy-Boy.

Quick peek in...

Here's some Porn for Cecil

Have a nice night PS, it's wine time for me

PS you don't have skin???? eeeeeewwwwwwww!!!!
Glad to see you pop in ~ be careful in the rain.

Hiya BoatChickie - think I'll brew some coffee. The caffeine and guarana from last nights Pink vodka has definitely worn off!

Night Jerry

I made it home. The rain has stopped for a little while. There's a band of storms coming thru soon tho...it'll rain all nite and clear up by mid-morning tomorrow with strong gusty winds, high in the upper 60's.
I should be on the news! You should see me with the top stories at 11!! George LOVES that!!LOL
_{I've lost it!}

Well Jerry I do hope you look in once more. You showed you leftover sn0w, here's all I have left.



The tape measure is at 5'. Very un-cool.

Windy twilight here, but it's cool, and so is the sound of rain on the tin? roof of the lanai. And I don't have to cook tonight, that's cool. And I agree Kaarien back in our midst is very cool, as we've been concerned! Finally I get to book my own trips, that's cool. Got 3 to do for us. Finally got paid for one I booked in Dec., that's really cool. lol

Hey, you all are cool.

Oh, and daylight savings time is cool! I like long days after work, and sunset in the pool. Called for the big cleanup and they'll do it Monday. Bob's mess of all my bananas and papayas dying threw plant litter into the pool bottom. But the plants/trees are coming back great, and that, restoring my Eden, is very cool.

Oh, and all of you heading to Bon soon is cool! My next trip to anywhere won't be till May, but I'm cool with that. And Bon in September.

The coolest thing that happened today is I heard from an old friend after a long absence. It made me smile. And of course waking up and seeing the wonderful faces of my family is way cool too...oh and I got a new really cool hairdo, tried something a little different and it turned out a'ight (that's cool on the streets these days). Snow and hail NOT cool, mean people also NOT cool. But in the end it's all good.

We have the big down pour going on here now..... Glad we're all in the the night before it hit. It's wonderful to have Dani home, too!

They're watching a funny sci-fi, not my fav, so I'm checking intellicast as a excuse!

guess it will hard to talk anyone into grilling pork chops today...



just the start

Bob, we have a generator if you can get to Reynoldsburg : ) Chili is on. We can't see our neighbors!

Honk your horn when you pass by Denise.
Have a fun day.

the chili sounds good

made it up to the speedway...

Bob's having a cookout!

Got lime?

Is it still snowing? The snow looks taller on the grill!!
Keep adding pics...this fascinates me!!

Yes Pegi Sue, it's still snowing and blowing. Had to shovel a path for Oz to go outside and he's a fairly big dog (Aussie). Drifted 3 feet up the door. He's not happy either! Snow blower broke a belt so the GUYS are out shopping! Gotta love that. No Corona Bob, but we have margaritas, no shortage of ice!

i think maybe the "stack" has reached physical limit?



way cool

looks like its about over...kind of the final tally...

Wow, Bob. I can't believe I even live on the same continent as you!

Sun just came out here in Joisey...!
What a day!!! RAIN WIND THUNDER...and tonight is high tide....
Hopefully no RAGING RIVER! out back!
That grill looks like a conehead!

a little sun



whatever;)

Hey Bob, I feel for you. :

http://music.aol.com/song/i-feel-for-you/66937
Sorry, only the song.

It's beautiful though, your world, in ways. My ferocious, howling wind finally died down and it's peace again.

And I double dog dare you to dance to it. lol (gasp gasp) I just did!

Here's hoping we all have a FINE, BRIGHT SUNNY day tomorrow, the last day of this time thing we're in, and we're all able to get up tomorrow morning an hour earlier, and enjoy the LONG as* day at home sweet home.

porch lights...strobes would be awesome (they are charged) but...too many coronas

Ahhh. It's Saturday night. I stil challenge you and your SO to dance that song.

substitute for above...a little better framed;)

Bob, I feel for ya, just can't reach..... over the snow!!! Latest storm started Friday - about 2 PM. Just before afternoon rush hour - 4 PM, it started to stick to the pavement. Wet pavement turned to iced pavement. Snow continued - very light overnight, then got hevy through the day. Have a little over 6 inches of new snow down now, plus the drifting from the high winds. Actually had whiteout conditions on my drive home tonight. Oh, and I just love Weather Guessers!!! NOT!! Originally calling for us to get a foot, or a little less of snow when this storm is over - has changed to be a foot and a half, plus the drifting!!!

I WANT SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!

Bill - waiting til Sunday morning to fix the snow thrower!!

Sheesh!!! I forgot......

TOM - a BIG WOO HOO, howdy doo to Mayo for 6 years !!

Way too cool man!!!

Congrats, and a BIG hug to the whole family!!!!!

Bill

(and Karen - celebrating 3 years CF!!!)

Love all of you Pink Ribbon Volunteers, too!!! You do help make a difference!!!!

Bill

BH is back, 10 fonzies.
