19:17:51Atuuschaaw (talk)Okay, I've screwed up! Fell asleep at 3:30 this afternoon and woke up at 8:30

18:46:17ReWoven (talk)Lu, man you are going through some major weather there. Stay hunkered down, dear.
18:45:30ReWoven (talk)I've been very well, thanks, Danny. Moved a year ago into a proper home and loving it.
Hope you are well too.
17:40:19LuAnna (talk)::hello
17:30:38Danny (talk)ReWoven, long time indeed. how have you been?
17:16:25ReWoven (talk)Image:Wave.gif Danny, howdy, long time, eh?
11:25:26Danny (talk)
15:49:28(talk)Midwest weather has been weird!!! I thought Alaska was bad Image:Tongueout.gif Scobey (talk) 15:49, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
15:27:13LuAnna (talk)warning cancelled.
15:23:52Chili (talk)640px-Steve_Durr-bio.jpg
15:23:38LuAnna (talk)oh my gosh, no.. they are serious... they may have stopped.. the rain hit.. hard fast and furious, coming down in all directions! by the time i had gathered laptop, phone and water and made it to the basement, i think the sirens stopped. i am going to look on line.. i thnk the storm goofed up my TV or my TV coincidentally chose this moment
15:10:22Kelli (talk)Hope the sirens are sounding for nothing like they do here, LuAnna.
15:06:47LuAnna (talk)Mert - the eggs laid first will hatch first and so on. Sirens here. Taking cover...
14:55:22Mert (talk)Well, I'm off to watch "Across the Universe" for the third time—I'm hoping to reach a saturation point. Hoping a birdologist will show up to answer my question, too lazy to google.
14:46:07Mert (talk)Er, everything has a gestation period, but humans don't always hatch at nine months.
14:44:42Mert (talk)If eggs are laid a couple of days or so apart, does that also mean they hatch at those intervals? Is this a dumb question?
14:39:36Chili (talk)Good to see hunhaw too!
14:25:11Mert (talk)Hey, Chik! For Peterdale too.
14:09:56Chili (talk)Thanks Nert — Hi wheatsters!!
13:02:28ReWoven (talk)We got snow last night on the mountain. Amazing.
13:01:00ReWoven (talk)Mr. and Mrs. Finch have been very busy. She wouldn't let the previous bird back into the nest yesterday, although he gave it his darndest and the Mr. is drinking some of the syrup from the hummingbird feeders.....i hear they are curious birds
12:58:50ReWoven (talk)Image:Idea.gif great idea Atuuy....I could set up a booth at the Farmers' Market...lets see I could get @4.00 doz for organic....1.00 for threee, right?
12:55:11Atuuschaaw (talk)Image:Wavingicon.gif Howdy ReWheatie! Three eggs now eh? That's one busy residence you have there. Probably bring top dollar on the market. Image:Lol.gif
12:50:51ReWoven (talk)Image:Lol.gif gotcha!
12:50:29ReWoven (talk)oh sorry I heard someone knocking at the door and had to see who is was

11:53:52Jim (talk)Time For Three on Myspace
11:52:06Atuuschaaw (talk)No, really I'm not. Image:Lol.gif If I was tough, I would have the conduit in the ditch, backfilled, and all the connections made my friend. Image:Lol.gif
11:25:26Jim (talk)
11:50:05Kimchifox (talk)Dang Atuu . . . surgery one week and diggin' a 40 foot trench the next. You're as tough as you look! Image:Smile.gif
11:45:07Atuuschaaw (talk)We got the 40' trench dug for the electrical conduit. Then we were burnt out! There will be plenty more cool daylight tomorrow I'm thinking! Image:Lol.gif
11:41:01Jim (talk)Time For Three is the group I saw on TV in Ohio. Just passing this along. I have none of their music.
11:39:43Mert (talk)Hey, Atuuy! How's Ma's AC hookup coming?
11:34:09Jim (talk)Marian Call's website
11:30:39Atuuschaaw (talk)Image:Wavingicon.gif Hello people of the Wheat!

11:12:22Sol® (talk)Thank you for reading the listener list, with the addition of locations. Lovely to hear it again.
11:10:11Sol® (talk)We're not in Potomac. That's where our servers are though. Downtown, Chinatown, D.C.
11:08:47E.D. Egg (talk)department of justice
11:06:43Kelli (talk)So cute! Thanks for sharing Scobey.
11:04:37Mert (talk)Too cool! Thanks!

10:48:11Scobey (talk)Image:Moose.jpg
10:38:27Fine-line (talk)thanks Jim!
10:35:16Jim (talk)Features is a good place to make suggestions Fine-line.
10:32:51Fine-line (talk)Oh i just saw this...and then I backspaced so I saw it twice! I need a link to a place I can write down an idea for artists pages please fineline@wheatheads.org thanks.
10:23:45Mert (talk)Good results, yay!
10:18:22terri (talk)hi Scobey... glad you're ok!
10:16:54Scobey (talk)I am choosing a pic to upload now. Results were GOOD!!! Thanks!
10:15:02Mert (talk)Scobe, didn't you recently mention test results? Am I being too nosy?
10:13:19Mert (talk)Oh, Scobe, wish you could get some pics for us midlanders.
10:00:07Scobey (talk)2 baby moose with mom out back romping around!!! Cute!!
09:50:47Kazookid (talk)Big Howdy to Terri, Mert, Beth ,Lu, Rewoven and Jim!
09:45:30E.D. Egg (talk)Oh yay; music again.
09:45:11E.D. Egg (talk)Silence! For me anyway; anyone else?
09:44:48terri (talk)hiya Jim!
09:43:57Jim (talk)Image:2008-06-03 16-07-08--1029.JPG
09:42:54terri (talk)the female vocalist in Red Unsaid sounds quite like Suzanne Vega. Which is good.
09:36:48Mert (talk)Anybody see the "WWR photos today" the other day? Seemed very strange to see flowering trees ringing the parking lot after seeing so much snow and extension cords hooked up to engines.
09:33:09terri (talk)Walkin' Jim Stoltz reminds me of Vaughn Monroe, kinda.
09:32:37Mert (talk)Second that, Beth.
09:31:27E.D. Egg (talk)I think we should just deputize Ruben to do all the wheatgrams. The rest of us can't live up to his examples.
09:30:58Mert (talk)Ruben!
09:29:47terri (talk)I missed you too! Hi KK!
09:29:29E.D. Egg (talk)We probably shouldn't get used to it . . . one thing I've learned from WWR is that things will always change.
09:28:46Mert (talk)Hey, Kaz and Terri! Lu, Michael Chapdelaine playing at a wedding ALMOST makes me want to get married again. Image:Colon-o.gifMert (talk) 09:28, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
09:26:15Kazookid (talk)Wow, we've got the entry box format back, and now even the displayed text is showing up with lines around it. Almost like a real chat!
09:17:34E.D. Egg (talk)Lu: is that your son's wedding? And hi Terri; we've missed you!
09:17:19terri (talk)Hello Lu, Beth, Mert... I'm doing well. Have been busy so I haven't been here much.
09:11:08LuAnna (talk)When i first saw the white space at the top of the page, i thought all of the entries had been erased! but not so.. something new.
09:10:23terri (talk)I'm still alive. I love you all.
09:09:15LuAnna (talk)FWIW i added some June Small Pototoes dates to the Concert Alerts page. I also going to be contacting Michael Chapdelaine to see if he wants to come to Wichita to play at a WEDDING!
08:32:28Mert (talk)Haagen-Dazs Extra Rich Light Coffee Ice Cream: life is good.
08:31:22E.D. Egg (talk)Hi all; a slightly different version than yesterday (always a surprise at WWR . . .)
08:16:41ReWoven (talk)hey cool the little empty box is here with the write it button .. and Image:Lol.gif I found it. Just came in right now before I head down town to deviler this rug to say that it got down to 40 degrees here last night and a friend said she had white stuff (hail/sleet) on her porch this morning

G'day everyone, just quickly coming in to wish you all a pleasent, productive and wheaty Thursday, it's Thursday over here for another hour or so which means I should be going to sleep :-)

Cheerio!

Have not logged on in a while, had a computer failure at home, and work has kept me busy. Life is good, we are well Dean (talk) 07:13, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)Dean


I am reading the NY Times about Hillary's decision to step aside. Just got to this quote and had to share it...

“We pledged to support her to the end,” Representative Charles B. Rangel, a New York Democrat who has been a patron of Mrs. Clinton since she first ran for the Senate, said in an interview. “Our problem is not being able to determine when the hell the end is.” Image:Rotfl.gif LuAnna (talk)

Hmm. Who hasn't done a question of the day yet, but is generally around? (I tagged LuAnna, without realizing she'd done one recently.) So I should come up with someone else . . . ReWo? Scobey? KodiBear? E.D. Egg (talk) 06:18, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

HA! I tagged Jim. I think he counts as a regular . . . E.D. Egg (talk) 08:09, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

Hi Everyone. Just checking in. I had an ablation on Monday to correct an irregular heartbeat. I'll spare you the details, but it included spending eight hours flat on my back semi-sedated unable to move. Thankfully, it worked, and now I'm laying low the rest of the week. Getting ready for our Larry Zarella house concert on Father's Day. Go Celtics! (sorry, couldn't resist)Used2Bjollyjim

Yikes (U2B)JJ! Glad it got corrected, but I'm sorry you had to go through that! Wish I were around for the house concert, but, alas, vacation (at the spouse's insistence; otherwise music would be my only vacation) calls. E.D. Egg (talk) 05:54, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
Dude! Image:Double_yikes.gif Cater (talk) 06:17, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

Thanks for the tunes, Mert! Guess I should get to work after they play, huh? Image:Smile.gif Kelli (talk) 04:53, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

I wondered how you were listening, Kelli. You must still be at home! LuAnna (talk) 05:01, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
Yep, I need to be leaving soon. Hope everyone has a great day! Kelli (talk) 05:02, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

Good morning, Wheaties. I just changed the tag line on "Today's Topic" to say "... or anyone else if Egg hasn't done it by 10 a.m.," considering what happened yesterday with that party pooper 12-stringer. Image:Hehe.gifMert (talk) 04:12, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

Image:Dunno.gif 10 AM in what part of the world? Image:Rotfl.gif LuAnna (talk) 04:40, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
Oh, duh. EST; Beth and I are on the same time. — Mert (talk) 04:42, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
Lu, do you want to ask the question? Beth has usually logged on by now. — Mert (talk) 04:45, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
I am good with that 10 AM thing. Maybe Beth will be here by then! LuAnna (talk) 04:51, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
Noop, jumped the gun. There she is. — Mert (talk) 04:52, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
Almost missed it though! Our attempted upgrade at internet at home wiped out any functionality, so I wasn't online yesterday afternoon through this morning; only got internet back when I came into the office. And I had resolved NOT to listen to WWR this morning, to try to get some editing work done that I can't do well enough while listening to music. But luckily I decided to check in quickly before getting started . . . E.D. Egg (talk) 05:15, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
Yay! — Mert (talk) 05:19, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
Well, now that I asked it, some of you have to answer it! E.D. Egg (talk) 05:29, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
Done. Liked yours. — Mert (talk) 05:38, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

Good Morning folks.Image:Hello.gif I will be taking a group of school kids to sing at an assisted living facility tomorrow morning. Today we will rehearse. Firewalk (talk) 03:38, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

No fair, Firewalkingheart, you get all the fun stuff to do. Image:Lol.gif Good Morning, dear ones. Met my deadline lastnight about midnight, whew. Raining here, gloomy day. Nice day to work inside but I miss my morning walk. Have a good one. ReWoven (talk) 05:30, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

Image:Hello.gif Happy Thursday, everyone. I have a "to do" list a mile and a half long. Needless to say, it includes a lot of mowing, and it looks like more storms heading this way for the next several days. I just got the latest Small Potatoes e-mailing. Looks like they are on their way to Kerrville. I will add some of their gigs to the Concert Alerts page. They are fun to go see in person... good people. Just thought I would say hi and bye before the day starts and all that work beckons. Walk in peace, everyone. LuAnna (talk) 03:45, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)


Image:Wavingicon.gif Good morning Wheatfolks! I hope y'all have a great day. I'm heading back to Ma's to do some more air conditioning work. Now we have the slab in place with the unit on it. The return duct/vent in the floor. We have to install the underground conduit and hook ups at the pole and the unit. Cut a hole in the existing duct work, run the thermostat and wiring, and then the duct work from the unit to the supply and return hubs. I don't think we'll get it all done today, but in a couple more days, we should be close! Image:Wink.gif Atuuschaaw (talk) 02:57, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)

Good morning, Atuu! Image:Hello.gif I'll trust you know what you are talking about there. Image:Hehe.gif I've just been really glad I have an A/C lately. Kelli (talk) 03:32, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
One week ago we had a killing frost. This week it's supposed to be in the 90s. Gonna be one of those summers, eventually, I think Image:Hehe.gif Cater (talk) 06:15, June 5, 2008 (AKDT)
