::: impish grin :::
- Joy
Cool, cool, cool inventory. Some surprising, some not so (at least from what I know about you from reading you regularly).
Like you more and more!
Awwwww - I tagged you for this yesterday. Great answers, though.
touched and iceberg... ROFLMOO
WOW... what a list... TGIF!!!!
SMOOCH!
This is cool info. :)
I've said this to others, and I'll say it to you: it's so nice to learn new things about you. You're one of the few guys I know (well, virtually at least) who feel flattered at receiving flowers.
Northern Lights Dude ? ? ?
Aurora Borialis (ring a bell ?)

DIANA: Translating, "please do not tag me for something like this" I think
TRAV: LOL hope you do!
ANNDI: I bet you can hear it... there were two teem girls in front of me and at the end of the ride, they both turned and just shook their heads!
And funny on the inappropriate...LOL no different sign!
JOY: You have a deal! LOL
SONGBIRD: rut ro... am I becoming too transparent?
COCO: Yes, I was tagged with this on Wednesday!
DUCK! hehehe of course YOU liked that one
DIXIE: LOL
TIGERPRR: LOL, when you say it like that I wonder if you have a secret book where you keep all your information! LOL
LIZZA: Wow, how can you not feel flattered... Is it not "manly" - feeling like that is ca-ca if you ask me!
BUSY: Ummm... sarcasm...
Holy Moly Bond, that was not a list that was a novella!
FUN! And the iceberg cracked me UP...thanks for the laughs.
Whoa! So many things listed...so little time to comment on them all! Um, you hugged a tree...and said "I love you" to it??? How much did you have to drink? LOL
I would dearly love to have witnessed you screaming like a 12 year old girl! You wouldn't happen to have it on video (or DVD) would you? LOL
And ,no, you won't go blind watching a lunar eclipse!
Story about Bond by the numbers:
29
23
62
7
31
8
61 (how giving of him!)
35 (how giving of her!)
STARRLIGHT: Hey Mimi tagged me with it!
TUG: And that was a 'throw-away" line LOL
MERI: Did I say I was drinking? No evidence of the screaming incident remains... OH ty for that
DR> B: I feel like I am in an episode of LOST now...
Umm and 35? huh?
Why 150?
I don't recommend the iceberg thing. Walked all over the forsaken trap and only had twisted ankles and freezer burn to show for it. - oh, and an eight-year-old convinced he was now the next Fridjof Nansen.
What a fun list.
Oh my, I must have been very tired when I wrote my comment.
Eek!
You've done great with this. Laugh out loud funny. Good job!
As promised, I have returned.
#7 - Yeppers.
#83 - **falls out of chair laughing** Warm & bubbly? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

#134 - You're missing a rocking good story!
Not having been tagged, I've stolen the idea and will post as soon as I can get through the list.
150? Who's idea was this arbitrary number anyway?? Geeez!
Because I have gone through stillwater/pool lifesaving courses and I was a WSI level instructor earlier in my youth ansn some things I don't forget.

Wow, I saw this on Turnbaby's blog and I'm still happy there was no tagging involved!
Great meme--I love seeing the answers!
Couldn't work out why the song you'd posted sounded so weird - til I realised I'd opened coco's blog in a new window and I was listening to crash test dummies at the same time.
It's not a good combo!!
It seems most of us have caused car accidents...
DANA: woOO NOT ME THOUGH
