Bad Parrot
A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary.Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to 'clean up' the bird's vocabulary.
Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back.John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even more rude. John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute.
Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer.
The parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."
John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude.
As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird spoke-up, very softly, "May I ask what the turkey did?"

So, how does your design look in it's new home? http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Whistle.gif -

Heyyy! Awesome Blog Design! http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/ThumbsUp.gif - Where'd you get it? http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/BigGrin.gif -
Great to see that the installation went without a hitch. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/ThumbsUp.gif -
Hope you had yourself a tasty Thanksgiving Day meal, Annette.

I always put my Christmas Tree up on Thanksgiving Day and my son decorates it while I set out all the other decorations. I got a new tree last year for this year so ALL the lights work! http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Applause.gif - http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Dance.gif -

At that time it was just my parents, my youngest sister, her husband and her daughter and me. We didn't know for sure who all else was going to show up. We were hungry at 10:30AM, so we decided, what the heck. We'll just eat NOW.
But, the Chile con Queso and the Pumpkin Pies eventually arrived and we pounced on them. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Whistle.gif -
And then later, I thought of you, Annette. Awwwww!
Okay, so it was when I was watching the Dallas Cowboys play the Miami Dolphins and Tony Romo threw 2 Interceptions.
Day-Um! There were 5 lead changes during the game and it went down to the last seconds. I had already given up and chalked it up to a Cowboys loss. But, the Cowboys managed to Abracadabra themselves into Field Goal range and kicked the winning Field Goal as time ran out.

They were in overtime against the Washington Redskins.
They were now all set to kick the Field Goal that would win them the game. Romo is the Holder on Field Goals. Romo saw that the Play Clock was about to run out, so he called a Timeout. The thing is, the Cowboys had no more Timeouts!

Dolphins players not fans of Tebow Day
Posted by Mike Florio on October 26, 2011, 4:22 PM EST
Dolphins tight end Anthony Fasano isn’t happy with “sick” fans of the team, who want the won-loss record to be sufficiently bad to secure dibs on Andrew Luck. Fasano and at least one teammate also aren’t happy with the franchise’s decision to celebrate Tebow’s college team during a Dolphins home game.
“It was awful,” Fasano told Joe & Evan of WFAN, via SportsRadioInterviews.com, regarding the celebration of the Florida 2008 national title team. “Showing up at the stadium and seeing all the Gator stuff and the Tebow stuff. It was disheartening,

"I think he’s a running back playing quarterback with a high football IQ," Bell said. "At the end of the day, when his career gets on down the road, he may even have to switch positions."
Meanwhile, multiple members of the Dolphins roster will eventually be faced with the prospect of switching careers, especially since they were unable to beat that running back playing quarterback with a high football IQ. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/LOL2.gif -

Anyway, sooo, was the Thanksgiving Day meal on GH ruined?
I've heard from my youngest sister that it is tradition that somehow, the Thanksgiving Day meal on GH is ALWAYS ruined and they usually have to end up ordering Pizza or going with some other Plan B.

I know that would be hard for you using your dial up. Would you would have to close Opera to open IE, or could you have both open at the same time?
Suntana # Sunday, November 27, 2011 9:37:53 PM
It's the same when I use AOL.
Well, AOL of course always has to be ON / Connected since it IS my ISP. When I'm using Opera, which is of course most of the time ... my AOL will be minimized. But, if I do want to check out some things with AOL, I just minimize or close Opera and bring AOL to the forefront.
On the periodic misbehaving episodes by MyOpera, I do sometimes have to venture into trying out AOL and IE to ascertain whether the problem is with Opera, MyOpera, AOL, my computer or just exactly what.

In hearing the 5 Fox Sports Commentators on Sunday mornings, there seems to be a feeling of - the jury is still out - as to whether Tebow is gonna be able to fully make the transition to the NFL. The consensus is that he's underachieving at the moment.
SummerAngel # Monday, November 28, 2011 1:11:54 AM
He'll find his groove and he won't be the backup quarterback forever. Orton didn't fair well the first two quarters. The outcome of the game would have been different if Tebow had been the starting quarterback.
Suntana # Monday, November 28, 2011 2:49:52 AM
Was Tebow drafted #1 or thereabouts?
I'm trying to remember which of those 5 Fox Sports Commentators said recently that Tebow was his "my man" because he had "the Body of a Greek God."

I really don't like this rape on the honeymoon storyline. I don't look forward to seeing GH like I usually do.
I'm loving OLTL. I think Ford and Jessica make a great couple.

That's what burns me up, chaps my hide ... seeing all these 1st Rounders demand the Millions and then Ohhh! They gotta learn the Fugging Ropes. WTF? If they ask and get more money than most of the veterans on the team, they should deliver immediately like a veteran.
I'll be seeing the Dallas Cowboys' Tyrone Smith (1st Round Draft Pick) being manhandled and pushed back on his Ass. I'll be, "WHAT? WTF are you doing on your Ass? You're being paid millions to knock your opponent on HIS Ass and to prevent anyone and everyone from getting anywhere near the Quarterback. WHY are you on your 300-plus pound Ass?"
Suntana # Tuesday, November 29, 2011 12:32:50 AM
I guess the Writers have to give the Viewers what they no doubt want to see. If a traditional Thanksgiving meal in Real Life is expected to be a certain way, then the GH Thanksgiving episode is expected to be a certain way. It would probably be a letdown and boring to the Viewers if the Writers surprised them with a nice, friendly, well-behaved syrupy Thanksgiving episode.

Jason wakes up in a strange room. He sees Franco's monkey on the TV monitor. The monitor switches to the Hawaiian hut so he can see Sam taking a shower. Jason desperately yells out for Franco to come after him and to leave Sam alone. He watches on the monitor as Franco approaches Sam in the shower.

In his secluded room, Jason watches on the monitor as Sam passes out in the shower. Franco catches her and carries her away. Jason desperately screams out as he sees Franco lay Sam on the bed. After Franco starts to undress, he talks to Jason through the camera saying, "I'd like some privacy. It is the lady's honeymoon after all." He blocks the view of the camera, leaving Jason to stew as Franco's monkey shows up on the screen.

I'll tear him apart limb from limb.
Then after he's like Steve Austin, a man barely alive ...
I'll force him to watch a Baseball game, a Soccer game and a Golf tournament.
THAT will teach him to do that to Sam.

But, for now I read some of the comments.
What do you think of that person claiming he knows for a fact from a Spoiler that he's read, that Franco didn't actually rape Sam. He just made it appear that way to get under Jason's skin?
