(((poof))) turns out it is the gorilla dander that Still4 brings with her when she comes to visit. So when she goes to visit your daughter, she'll have to put on a clean shirt. Still4, not the gorilla.
m'love bought the game Spore. It is too cool. I wish you guys could see what is going on.

where did you want it to go? poof...it's gone, but all those little germs are wandering around looking for a new home.
I wish we could all trade places sometimes - I get tired of being me all the time.

Okay, Poof! I'm now Still4gvn, and I'm playing with her kitty and having a fine time. Still4gvn is now me and is sitting alone at work because my co-worker didn't show up, and there are no alarms going off. But she must stay awake all night so she doesn't get me in trouble when I get done being her and come back to being me.
I wish the "d" key on my laptop was working better. I don't know why I have to hit it harder than the others and it keeps not showing up on my screen so I have to go back and hit it again.

ok, I stayed up all night playing sudoku and scrabble on your work computer, but your family was kind of shocked when I came home instead of you. As long as you're me, I wish you'd cook something for the church pot luck tonight.

Be happy to. I'm just not a tremendously good cook, so I'm not too sure how the people will respond.
I wish I could cook something really delectable and unforgettable for Still4gvn's potluck.

(((poof))) you have made the most delicious dip in the world. And now you are trapped. Every pot luck meal, folks will be licking their lips and salivating in anticipation of you bringing more dip. And you can't disappoint your public. Riots and placards will be in the streets demanding more dip!
I wish I was in the news crew taking photos for these events.

lol. I was lazy and had dh pick up chicken from store to take.
poof....Car2ner gets to cover the Annie dip riots. You get great shots of Annie saying 'it was really nothing' and 'just something I whipped up quick'. Then things get ugly: dip eaters are acting violent. If they don't get more of Annie's dip they shake, sweat and double up with cramps. You video one man hallucinating and having a seizure. Several people break into Annie's home and ransack it looking for ingredients. Police bring in forensics and try to analyse dip traces in bowls - but the bowls have been licked clean. You video as Annie is taken away for questioning. She is claiming it was just sour cream and onion soup mix, but will anyone believe her? As a reporter on the seen, can you present her side of the story to the hostile public? Will you?
I wish that Car2ner would help prove Annie's innocence.

(((poof)))
I spent the evening surfing U-Toob trying to take my mind off of poor annie's predicament so that I could eventually get some sleep. I found a video taken by a phone camera that was of teenagers showing off to each other. It was in the yard next door to Annie's home. In the background there was a helicopter hovering over the house and agents were repelling down to the kitchen window! I copied the video and using the latest version of adobe something-or-other, enlarged the shot to see that the agents were slipping mind altering substances into the dip. By reading their lips I found out that they were engaged in a plot to skew the elections and force people to vote for ___________________ (insert scoundrel here). But who could I report this to? How would they believe me? Poor Annie.
I wish Still had passed the bar exam. Annie needs a good lawyer.

Hi Guys! I love the way this thread has been going - Gorillas, kitties, alligators, dip, and intrigue. A great combination! Neat!
POOF!!!!!
Facing jail time, Annie sits in bed watching television one evening. A CNN breaking news alert uncovers a scandal - law school bar exams have been tampered with, and many who failed the bar actually passed. Still is shown on the screen being interviewed by a reporter. With tears in her eyes, she faces the camera while clutching her acceptance papers - "I am so glad that I passed the bar. My first case will be to represent Annie ... if she'll have me." Annie cries just as the phone rings. It is Still - they have a lot of work to do.
In the meantime, car2ner was also watching CNN with great interest. She takes out her laptop, making plans to incorporate this into her story. In the days that follow, car2ner works feverishly on the story. She interviews Annie several times, always with Still present. Still has proven to be a very capable lawyer and thus, car2ner gets no new information. Frustrated, car2ner stares at the video once more, examining it frame by frame when she notices something that she had not seen before. Inside the helicopter, she sees that one of the men partially lifted his mask. Although his face has turned from the camera, she sees silver hair and one large ear. On the floor of the helicopter, she also sees a large chart with writing on it. Magnifying it, she is startled to realize that she knows who the culprit is. She calls a friend of hers who specializes in imagery analysis. He takes one look at the magnified video, then sucks in his breath. "I think I know who this is ... but I can't believe that this guy is still around ..." he says as he quickly taps the keyboard of his computer. Several hours later, research results confirm their suspicions. The man on the helicopter is ... H. Ross Perot .
Confused and stunned, car2ner leaves the lab making plans to dig more deeply into the story. Her editor calls asking her about the story, but she stalls, telling her that she needs to fact check a bit more. Over the next few days she searches diligently, exhausting many of her contacts. Finally, she stumbles upon the entire picture. Awestruck and horrified, she learns that several major third party candidates for president (Chuck Baldwin, Ralph Nader, Cynthia McKinney, Bob Barr, and Frank Moore) have decided to align themselves with a new party called "The Alternative." Run by H. Ross Perot, "The Alternative" appeared on the surface to be a congenial group. However, car2ner discovers that the group has been testing the impact of mind altering substances. The plan of The Alternative was to destablize the government by releasing the mind altering drugs n the water supply several weeks before the election - and to effect both major candidates and their supporters. The beta test of the drug was released in Annie's dip; and the result was an insatiable desire for a certain type of food and severe seizures which could lead to death. With the country in chaos, H. Ross Perot could blame the situation on foreign terrorists, then he would step in to restore calm with a cure manufactured by one of his companies. This would gain him the status that he'd need to eventually be elected president. As car2ner uncovered the plan, she grew cold. A situation of this magnitude could not have gone unnoticed. How big was this plan, she wondered. Suddenly frightened and unsure of who she can trust, car2ner began to pray feverishly, not sure what to do next.
WISH: I wish that car2ner would make a decision about what to do with this information.

(((poof))) I struggle to my feet after kneeling for prayer so long that my legs are cramped. I waddle over to the window in hopes that God would have the answer written in big red letters across the sky. Staring at the clouds a speck appears from the clouds. It is not moving like a bird, too small to be a plane, and it is growing larger and larger as it comes closer. Amazingly, it becomes clear! Not a bird, not a plane, but Super Fritz! Our trusty keeper of the forums looks nifty in tights and a cape, btw.
I wish I could make out the logo on Super Fritz's chest.

Turns out the logo is a series of adds for a Christian dating service and movies. Fritz has come to warn Car2ner and Rgod that this thread will be switched to 'current events' or 'conspiracy theories' if we're not careful.
Meanwhile, Annie has discovered the antidote: taco flavored bean and cream cheese dip. She is spending every spare moment at work producing vast quantities, which is why we haven't seen her here in a couple of days. Everyone is grateful although they're having terrible gas. All charges have been dropped and it's suggested that Annie run for office. She declines because they'd expect her to work days.
I wish someone would exonerate Nader.

POOF!!!!
All of the third party candidates, including Ross Perot were arrested without bail. Early the next morning, car2ner gets a phone call. "You won't believe this" said Jimmy, the limo driver who helped her discover the sinister plot. "But I found Ralph Nader ..." Confused, car2ner phones the jail. Nader is behind bars. "How can this be?" -- She starts to investigate. Soon she finds out something even more shocking. All of the third party candidates have been tied, gagged, and bound in the basement of one of Perot's mansions. The men and women in jail were impostures! After contacting the FBI, car2ner learns that the third party candidates had been secretly replaced, one by one, and look-alikes took their places. The mastermind was not even Ross Perot - but his brother - Wilber.
The news stunned the international community. All of the third party candidates were freed and the third party movement got much needed publicity.
- Annie's dip became a must have for holiday get togethers and she landed a cooking show on the Food Network. 'Dippin' with Annie' lasted for two seasons until it was replaced by "Old Time BBQ" by H. Ross Perot.
- Still4gvn began serving at a prestigious law firm and eventually replaced Judge Judy. However, the show infected her and she began to get bad publicity because of her snarky "Judge-Judy-like" comments.
- Rgod's thread was moved to the current events conspiracy folder, where it coincided peacefully with the UFO thread. This all ended one night when the FBI found that some of her story was indeed true. Rgod spent four years in the state pentitentiary before she was released, thanks to Still4gvn's legal expertise.
- Fritz won the webby for leading the best social networking site on the web. However, once pictures surfaced with him wearing tights and a cape ... the award was revoked.
- car2ner won several emmy's for her award-winning reporting and eventually became a correspondent for CNN. Elections came and went and candidates were presented fairly in an unbiased manner by car2ner - much to the relief of millions of Americans. car2ner's celebrity status soared - but unfortunately, she was linked to many people in the tabloids, including Pauly Shore, Nick Nolte, and David Hasselhoff. Hounded by paparazzi because each man saw her as a ticket back to stardom, car2ner eventually quit her job with CNN and became a recluse.
THE END!!!!
WISH: I wish that the Winn Dixie Fruit Punch that I bought didn't taste so much like water and unidentified chemicals.

WOW you do have an imagination.
Glad I'm back to being a recluse. Don't like laywers - I used to have to testify for work and they'd try to trip me and insinuate stuff.
poof...it tastes fine after you add some fruit juice to it. Unfortunately it was made in China and you are now full of melamine and heavy metals. hmmm maybe the ingredients for that dip came from China?
gotta run. I wish we can get the grandkids (6&4) to learn more of Jesus while we babysit today.

poof...you volunteer for one of those Christian hotlines for people in crisis. Now you spend nights (between answering emergency calls for work) talking people out of suicide and abusive relationships and telling them how to get saved. It's not dangerous - all on the phone - but it cuts into your game time.
Well, monster boy has been super good. His Mom decided to bribe him with videos. Not what I'd have done, but an improvement. They brought their kids Bible to me and asked for the story of Cain killing Able - well, they're boys and like the gory stories.
My son would pay for us to go to WA DC with them and the kids and see the Smithsonian. I wish I'd get over bad muscle spasms I got in my back from a draft. I can hardly walk for 2 wks.

Poof - The muscles in your back have been healed and your son is so excited that he decides to pay for your trip to D.C. to see the Smithsonian. As the plane touches down at Reagan Intl' you look with awe at the scenery. You are finally in the nation's capitol! Traffic on the George Washington Parkway is miraculously a breeze and you are able to quickly navigate to a fancy hotel Woodley Park. You and the kids enjoy your first day exploring the shops and the zoo and catch a bite to eat at Maggiano's in Bethesda. The next day, you decide to leave your rental car in the garage and take the metro to the Smithsonian with the kids. You get up early - get an all-day metro pass and crowd the kids onto the train. You arrive at the Smithsonian and are amazed that the museums stretch for blocks. You try to visit as much as you can - and you decide to go to the History museum last. After the main part of the History museum closes the kids start to get restless, so you call your son. He comes by to meet you and the kids for dinner at Georgetown, but at the last minute you decide to stay and watch the IMAX movie and have supper downstairs in the cafeteria/turned jazz nightclub as IMAX is featuring something that you've wanted to see for a very long time. You settle down in a corner to watch the movie. But the kids have worn you out and you promptly fall asleep.
When you wake up, it is dark. Startled, you sit up in your chair and reach for your purse. It is gone. You grope for the door, only to find that it is locked from the outside. You yell. Silence. Finally, you see the exit sign for a side door. You try it and the door opens ... followed by a searing alarm. Within seconds, a security guard and the park police have you handcuffed and on the floor.
WISH: I wish that I hadn't eaten sweet and sour chicken for lunch.

POOF!! You didn't. You ate sweet and sour frog legs. They taste just like chicken.
I wish the security guard at the IMAX in Washington DC would realize that Still4gvn is not a dangerous criminal and let her go.

LOL! I've never had frogs legs, but I did have dog once (long story).
POOF: While Still4gvn is on the floor and handcuffed, she manages to relate her story to the security guard and police. They check the lost and found - and lo and behold - a good samaritan turned in her purse with everything intact. The security guards and park police look at her information, realizes that her story "checks out" - particularly since her family called in looking for her earlier in the evening. They decide to let her go. As it is late and the metro has stopped running, they offer to give her a ride back to her hotel. On the way back to the hotel, the police receive a call that a person is trying to commit suicide by jumping off of an overpass. As they are close by, they make a detour.
The young man threatening suicide is talking to Annie on the Christian suicide hotline. His face is an emotionless mask of depression. When he sees the police, he inches further out on the overpass, and closer to the oncoming traffic. The police try to talk to him, but the man seems unmoved. Annie speaks with him on the phone - and he listens - but suddenly says "it's all lies - you are lying to me!" He takes the phone from his ear and throws it into the traffic below, where it is promptly run over by a huge 14-wheeler truck.
Feeling a prompting inside, Still4gvn gets out of the police car and inches towards the young man. The taller policeman steps towards Still4gvn. "Ma'am, please get back in the vehicle. We are handling this situation." The young man looks in Still4gvn's direction, his black hair blowing in the wind. His eyes widen in surprise.
"Mrs. Still4gvn ... is that you?"
Shocked, Still4gvn nods her head - and tries to search her memory for the young man. Nothing.
"It's me, Steven."
Suddenly, Still4gvn sees Steven as a little boy in her minds eye. Stevie was a kid in her church's youth class that she taught years ago. He was a huge practical joker. Now, he was a grown man - painfully thin - gaunt - unshaven - with shoulder length black hair. "Stevie?"
Steven's stoney face crumples as he starts to cry. He nods his head.
"Stevie - what are you doing here?"
Steven doesn't answer for long moments. Then he says "You know, it's been hard. I was just standing here, thinking that God didn't love me anymore. It's been so hard." Steven starts to cry. Still4gvn inches forward, praying for wisdom. He continues. "I was just thinking over my life. And I was on the phone with this woman ... Annie." He looks at Still4gvn. "Annie was praying for me and asking God for a miracle." Steven gives a dry chuckle. "She was telling me that God cared about me. I was so ... angry - I was telling her that it was a lie. And then I saw you."
Still moving forward slowly, Still4gvn talks to Steven. "Stevie - I do not know what you have gone through, but I do know what it is like to feel like God doesn't love you or that God doesn't care. I've been there, especially after I lost Sherry to a car accident."
"Sherry, you daughter?"
"Yes ... she died shortly after you moved away."
"Oh. God took my whole family - my whole family. There was a fire ..." Steven started to cry.
Still4gvn looked to the policeman who was watching the entire scene incredulously. He nodded to her and motioned that she could move closer. "Be careful ma'am" he said, "I don't want to have to rescue the both of ya." Still4gvn nodded and moved to the edge of the overpass.
"Steven, it was hard. But, God got me through it. And he showed me that he still loved me, just as he loved Sherry. Just like he loves you." Still4gvn took a deep breath. "Stevie - I believe that God led me here tonight to let you know that he loves you very much and that he doesn't want you to die, but to live. God wants you to live."
Steven was silent for a while and then nodded his head. "Yes," he said quietly. "I do believe that he does."
The police move in to help Steven get down from the overpass. He immediately hugs Still4gvn. After they speak to the police and fill out a bit of paperwork - they head to the hospital where Steven is checked in on suicide watch. Still4gvn's family comes down - and they take turns visiting Steven during this rough time. They do not get a chance to see all of the Smithsonian - but instead, have received a greater gift ...
******
WISH: I wish that the financial crisis was over and that the country would be economically strong again.

LOL. And I didn't even know I had a daughter.
Annie - how do you like your phone counseling job?
poof...banks keep collapsing and the dollar is devalued. Gas prices go up to $8.00. Many people loose their jobs and become homeless. Eventually, folk start re-evaluating their consumerist hedonistic lifestyle and look for more lasting values. Revivals break out here and there, but they don't center on big crowds, music specials and hype. In these revivals, people renew their commitment to living a Christian life. They help each other, share housing and trade skills and possessions as needed. Yards are used to grow food for neighbors and meals are often cooked and shared together. The decrease of single occupancy SUVs and large cars leads to less dependency on foreign oil. By not using disposable plastic and increasing recycling, further energy is saved. Bicycles and electric cars become standard.
The economy starts to stabilize.
I wish all the young squirrels here would wise up. They run right in front of cars and one was trying to get into the house through the cat door. Maybe his name was Steven, because breaking into a house that has a cat would be kind of suicidal.

POOF: He asks you out. But then you realize that he is a bit of a ... well a jerk. However, he really likes you. So he keeps asking you out. Over, and over, and over, and over again :)

I see a pattern here. Rgod, do you usually post while eating supper?
poof...you complain to the manager and s/he brings you an extra cup of chicken. But you keep thinking about the dog and frogs....and wish you'd ordered something that didn't taste like chicken.
I wish my friends would get along better with each other and not be critical.
