The human body is fitfully and wonderfully made. I really pushed the envelope this weekend by taking the ex and the boys camping. I was excited about going so I got up at 4:30 to make sure I didnt forget anything. By the time the family got here and we got to the campground, it was noon. After a little fishing, it was time to make a fire so we could cook something to eat. While the fire was making coals for cooking, I took the boys on a canoo ride. Oh yeah, did I mention that you have to walk along ways to do anything in this big campground? When we got back we were starved and my ex had conveiniently decided to go back to her house to get some stuff she forgot. So guess who got to cook hamburgers? When I got the hamburgers cooked, it started to rain, so we had to move everything in to the tent so we could eat. Around this time I was thinking that there really is no rest for the wicked. We stayed the next night too, but by then, I was down the rabbit hole in my tent watching it rain outside, we were wet and muddy alot. Needless to say that because of all this rigerous summer activity, I really felt the ribaviron talking to me, but I was pleasantly suprised to find out that when things get tough and your drinking nothing but water and a little coffee, your body will help you get through hardship, even if you are on combination therapy for hep c.

Mon, June 26, 2006 - 7:34 PMGreat Brock, great. I don't know if it is the coffee/water, probably the paternal instinct. Guess you don't miss the ex. ha ha.
I camped in hail in Yosemite on a sierra club thing once. Everyone left and went to a hotel. We were very macho girls and toughed it out until the complete bottom of the tent and our bags were soaking. Now that I feel better, I can go and do it again. Hah! -

Tue, June 27, 2006 - 3:34 PMGood for you Brock. I hate camping, no showers, no loos, no room to swing a cat and air beds that always go down. All my camping trips used to end with a drinking session, nothing worse than waking up in a tent thing with a hangover.
Beverly, you don't strike me as an outdoorsy girl? -

Re: Camping
Tue, June 27, 2006 - 7:08 PMHa ha, I'm an everything girl - one day a punk, next a total nature girl, the next in a navy blue biz suit, foodie one day, chips for dinner next, sitting naked in the hot springs, and the next in bed w/my dogs reading the history of the potato and feeling sorry for myself. Don't fit in anywhere Tracey, I just visit. But I'm always a fag hag and always a mouthy b. so at least I am consistent in something. Sold water/wine at the Gay Pride festivle this past weekend, which persona? Liza of course, put no full makeup, spiked hair, dramatic clothes and Liza on my name tag. And my friend, we both pretended we were gay when people asked us if we were partners. Teen fun. But the real question here is, why do you swing cats? how much room do you need to actually do this? is there a particular cat? what kind of cat? are a nutcase? have you ever heard of the lion cut? Brock, do you swing cats?

Wed, June 28, 2006 - 9:22 AMI used to tie two cats tails together and hang them over the clothesline, does that count? Duct tape and rope works real good for that. Dont know anything about the lion cut though. Enlighten us. -

Wed, June 28, 2006 - 2:40 PMGood with apple sauce I hear. (loin cuts)
swing a cat is just a phrase, god knows where it came from.
So, your a multi tasker Beverly.
Brock, why did you hang the cats tails over the washing line? had you washed them? and were cats on the end of them? -

Re: Camping
Wed, June 28, 2006 - 2:58 PMI grew up on a farm and I had dogs and my sister had cats. I was very creative at finding ways to torment the cats. Yes of course cats were attatched.
Now that I'm older, I am more of a cat person, they are less problems than dogs. -

Re: Camping
Wed, June 28, 2006 - 7:25 PMHas anyone read the front page story on thesmokinggun.com today? Talk about going to the dogs.
A friend took her cat to be groomed and they gave it a lion cut. Left the front like a lion's mane, shaved the rest of it, until it had a lion's tail. I keep asking her to bring in pictures. Have you ever heard of such a thing. I find this simply fascinating, although I'm not sure why.
Cats 1 (Brock)
Dogs 2 (Bev)
Anyone else? -

I had long hair cats for yrs and that is exactly how they shaved them, don't know why but it is the standard practice, they also don't shave around the paws so they actually wind up looking like poodles -

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.

I think they are pretty popular all over, here in the US they are illegal in a lot of places, I put them in the catagory of a rat or turtle, all sleep / sh**! very little personality or activity -

Re: Camping
Fri, June 30, 2006 - 10:58 AMThat's about right Sher. They just come out at night and scatter the garbage around the garden.
I don't know of anyone who keeps them as pets Beverly. Who want's a prickly pet when you can have a nice smooth one. How can you stroke a hedgehog?
