  i saw the movie the mist this weekend.. i was surprized at how good it was.. it is based on a novel by stephen king, how does that guy continue to crank out novels and movies?.

  if you like thrillers this is a good movie to see.. i won't spoil it for you, but the ending is a shocker!.

  Funny things that happen at your Thanksgiving dinner

  by pratt1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have 2 stories of accidents/funny things that has happened at our thanksgiving dinner.. when i was newly married, my wife and i invited 2 other couples over for dinner on thanksgiving, because "turkey was cheap" so we bought one - we weren't really celebrating a holiday, it was just that a turkey was too big for just 2 people.

  we were in denial.. my job was to make a cake, something i had never attempted and since i was a ms and the "head of the house" i didn't need any help from my lowly wife.. i wanted to make the cake fron scratch so i used the recipe on the back of presto baking flour.. because i was watching football at the same time i was trying to make the cake, i transposed the directions for sugar and baking powder - 2 cups of sugar bacame 2 cups of baking powder and a tablespoon of baking pwder bacame a tablespoon of sugar.. i mixed the ingredients and sat down to finish watching the game as the ckae baked.

  after about 15 minutes there was a huge explosion in the kitchen, the entire oven door had blown off and there was cake batter over the whole kitchen.. needless to say the dinner was ruined.. no thanksgiving dinner for us that year.. second story, not to be outdone, last year my daughter 20 years old was in charge of making the turkey for thanksgiving.

  Holidays - How do you feel?

  by pratt1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as holiday time approaches, many of us ex dubs have mixed feeling going on in our head.. are you happy and excited because now you can celebrate the holidays with family (maybe) and friends, or are you depressed or just ambivialent about the whole thing?.

  it took my a few years just to feel comfortable wishing someone a happy holiday, and a few more years before i actually celebrated a holiday.. now i celebrate every holiday, and i am always excited about the event, although i don't place any spiritually/religious meaning towards the event and i just enjoy the chance to socialize with family and friends.. what about you?.
