Always a minute too late! LOL I jinxed myself last night as far as things slowing down and ended up having a flight of the bumblebee day! I didn't even get to write a single word today! But, I did bring some late night munchies with me! YUM!
Have some popcorn, your choice of Chex Mix, and the biggest batch of my special brownies you've ever seen! Oh yeah and some more Slim Jims and then there's Kool-Aid of all flavors to wash it down with!
Hope everyone had a great day today and an awesome day tomorrow! Goodnight to all and to all a goodnight! 
We are 5 posts away from 13,000 POSTS. WOW!!
Oh dear! Where is everyone tonight...
I'll start roasting some marshmallows over the flames and attempt to waft the smell out into the darkness... perhaps it will draw in the rest of the Tribe....
(If I were cool, I'd insert some sort of smiley waving a blanket over a fire or something... but, I'm not.)
Gee, I thought it was me! I kept looking at the post count up top and trying to figure out what I was doing wrong.
Count me in and let the fun begin.
Thank you mega1. In answer to your question, "what do you do for fun"? Here's what I would like to do for fun today, I'll post one joke and the next person under me will post another.... and so on and so on... that way we all get loads of laughs today. Ok? So, here's the joke I posted:
Smartest Man in the World
A doctor, a lawyer, a little boy and a priest were out for a Sunday afternoon flight on a small private plane. Suddenly, the plane developed engine trouble.
In spite of the best efforts of the pilot, the plane started to go down. Finally, the pilot grabbed a parachute, yelled to the passengers that they had better jump, and bailed out.
Unfortunately, there were only three parachutes remaining.
The doctor grabbed one and said "I'm a doctor, I save lives, so I must live," and jumped out.
The lawyer then said, "I'm a lawyer and lawyers are the smartest people in the world. I deserve to live."
He also grabbed a parachute and jumped.
The priest looked at the little boy and said, "My son, I've lived a long and full life. You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take the last parachute and live in peace."
The little boy handed the parachute back to the priest and said, "Not to worry, Father. The 'smartest man in the world' just took off with my back pack."
I hope you all enjoy!

I got a sunburn.
Ok.. I'm having too much fun, so here's another joke. I hope you all enjoy it.
"A Great Writer"
There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed his desire to become a great writer.
When asked to define "great" he said, "I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, howl in pain and anger!"
He now works for Microsoft, writing error messages.Ok.. in honer of April Fool's day...here's one more.
Clever Doggie
A butcher is working, and really busy. He notices a dog in his shop and shoos him away. Later, he notices the dog is back again. He walks over to the dog, and notices the dog has a note in his mouth. The butcher takes the note, and it reads, "Can I have 12 sausages and a leg of lamb, please."
The butcher looks, and lo and behold, in the dog's mouth, there is a ten dollar bill. So the butcher takes the money, puts the sausages and lamb in a bag, and places it in the dog's mouth. The butcher is very impressed, and since it's closing time, he decides to close up shop and follow the dog.
So, off he goes. The dog is walking down the street and comes to a crossing. The dog puts down the bag, jumps up and presses the crossing button.
Then he waits patiently, bag in mouth, for the lights to change. They do, and he walks across the road, with the butcher following. The dog then comes to a bus stop, and starts looking at the timetable.
The butcher is in awe at this stage. The dog checks out the times, and sits on one of the seats to wait for the bus. Along comes a bus. The dog walks to the front of the bus, looks at the number, and goes back to his seat. Another bus comes. Again the dog goes and looks at the number, notices it's the right bus, and climbs on.
The butcher, by now open-mouthed, follows him onto the bus. The bus travels thru town and out to the suburbs. Eventually the dog gets up, moves to the front of the bus, and standing on his hind legs, pushes the button to stop the bus. The dog gets off, groceries still in his mouth, and the butcher still following.
They walk down the road, and the dog approaches a house. He walks up the path, and drops the groceries on the step. Then he walks back down the path, takes a big run, and throws himself -whap!- against the door. He goes back down the path, takes another run, and throws himself -whap!- against the door again!
There's no answer at the door, so the dog goes back down the path, jumps up on a narrow wall, and walks along the perimeter of the garden. He gets to a window, and bangs his head against it several times. He walks back, jumps off the wall, and waits at the door.
The butcher watches as a big guy opens the door, and starts laying into the dog, really yelling at him.
The butcher runs up and stops the guy. "What the heck are you doing? This dog is a genius. He could be on TV, for God's sake!"
To which the guy responds, "Clever, my foot! This is the second time this week he's forgotten his key!"Ok, so I'm very sleepy this morning... just have time to drop by donuts and some coffee. Those attempting to be healthy will have to fend for themselvs!
I have to run, but, I am excited. I just published my 3rd hub in 4 days! Woohoo! That's a definite record for me. (2 are book reviews, which require a lot less research, so they are easier for me, but still... )
Anyway, have a great day everybody.- lynnechandlerposted 15 years ago0

Thanks Lynne! That's quite a goal.
I keep looking at the 30 day challenges, I'd love to do them, but for the moment, I think they are out of reach. But, like I said, for now I'm happy with progress. A few of my recent ones are getting pretty good traffic (for me... I have no idea what "pretty good traffic" on average for HP would be! )
I'd like to do another one or two over the weekend if I can, but just the sort of rambling personal ones... nothing I'd have to look up any keywords for. Just have some stuff bouncing around my head that wants to get out.
We'll see. The "Easter Bunny" has a lot of work to do the next few nights, so I'm not sure if there will be much time for hubbing.
Happy Easter tribe!

Good morning tribe. Hope eveyone is having a great weekend.

Morning Sam! Nice pics there thanks for including one for all of us,
Hope you are having a beautiful day! Hey there tribers! It's kind of a creepy, overcast day here in the Eastern Sierra Nevada, but still gorgeous! Thought I'd drop in and say hello for once-sorry I've been out of the loop for so long.
I'm gonna have my 2ND hip replacement surgery next month and HAVE to quit smoking.
My doc prescribed Chantix, but even with insurance it was $75!!! I can't afford that until next week. Wow, has anybody else tried this stuff? Does it work?Hey everybody! Yeah lunchtime! (I have to remember to go get some food today instead of just hanging out on hubpages!)
Nice pics, Sam. Is that you in the yellow top?
Hey Lynne - As far as I know its beautiful outside, but my office has no windows, so I'm not sure.
Lorlie - Nice to see you. Bummer about the hip. But, I've heard that it makes you feel so much better! (I guess you would know since this is your second.) No rec's on the smoking stuff.. sorry. I only smoked in college, and was able to quit when I left school without anything. Probably a lot different quitting after 4 years than after a long time! I'm sure there's tons of reviews on the net though. I think moral support can be a big help. I know a few states have help hotlines that you can actually call when you have a craving. Does NV have anything like that?Thanks Laurel!
Yuck... Stomach shots... I don't mind needles, and that doesn't sound like any fun at all. But, at least you know its a good result in the end.
Yup. I work every Saturday, its part of my regular work week. It can stink sometimes, but its been really helpful with daycare for the kids, and having a staggered schedule with my hubby means the kiddos are at home with one of us more, which I'm very thankful for.
Ok, gonna go run and get some food. No need to be a starving writer today!

thats cool! - lynnechandlerposted 15 years ago0
I don't smoke in the house any more, so that's kind of cool, but I do take smoke breaks a LOT.
WHY don't I smoke in the house, the tribers asked with unbridled curiousity? Jest teasin'! Because my daughter-in-law is 5 mo's pregnant and lives with us! My FIRST grandchild!
