An open apology to Jeepers

[Dual867PowerMac]

I forgot you were a woman. :redface:

[Sinister Rouge]

I thought Byzantine Catholic was a woman.
It happens.

[sgdp]

For the record, I'm a lady. ;)

[Mimiheart]

I always find it odd when people think I'm a guy.

[JenyEliza]

I'm a girl too--just in case anyone forgot. ;)

[Ninjacorpse]

Don't feel bad l, johnrocks thought I was a female, he got samurai and I mixed up I think lol.

[sgdp]

Don't feel bad l, johnrocks thought I was a female, he got samurai and I mixed up I think lol.

Pshaw. Ninjas. Samurais. Same diff.

[Ninjacorpse]

Pshaw. Ninjas. Samurais. Same diff.

I am way cooler. :snooty:

[ISYairio]

Don't feel bad l, johnrocks thought I was a female, he got samurai and I mixed up I think lol.

I'm offering a 50% discount on the, er, surgery.

*snip snip :D*

;)

[Seanachie]

I am way cooler. :snooty:

'Corpses' are usually kept way cooler... they also have a toe tag to identify them as to Gender...Ninja or not! LOL

Please forgive my Macabre sense of humor and any rigor mortis that may have set up in my scrambled brains.

She's not? Er he's? er, um, oh.

[traditional_woman]

Jeepers is probably the most womanly typer around.... well besides gabby and mysty. How'd you mess that one up, you isn't a newb.

[jeepers]

:lol:

It's really, okay. Sweet of you to apologize, but not necessary.

[Celtic Pax]

Considering the general non-sexual form of screen names used on the forum, I am not surprised to see so many gender mix ups people have. Kind of neat really that posters can post without preconceived gender biases getting in the way of the message. Too bad liberals can't mask their positions as well as gender:dance:

[samurai7]

Don't feel bad l, johnrocks thought I was a female, he got samurai and I mixed up I think lol.

Oh man, this is a total call out thread!

First Jeepers and now me!

I'm telling!!!!!!!!!!!!! :naughty:







Just kidding! :shhh:

[samurai7]

Pshaw. Ninjas. Samurais. Same diff.

Hey! Them's fighting words to us Samurai! :razz:









:mrgreen:

[samurai7]

I am way cooler. :snooty:



That does it, I'm opening up a can of whoop ass! :naughty:

[Ballygrl]

I think we need something that goes below our name, pink for girl blue for boy. I get slightly confused on the sex of the posters sometimes.

[Ninjacorpse]

Sweet, I usually pay to have women try and hurt me.:shifty: :razz:

Even our corpses are stealthy, good luck finding them. :razz:

[mysticbeauty_nbeast]

Jeepers is probably the most womanly typer around.... well besides gabby and mysty. How'd you mess that one up, you isn't a newb.

;) don't forget to add yourself to that list Traditional....us 'womanly types' have to stick together...lol. Jeny, August Gem (which man I miss her...haven't seen her in ages here, Rhet, Ski, Dreamy, Bella, oh...man...list could go on and on as to obviously female posters here.

You've made me think however on the perceptions of what gender someone who posts here is. I have to confess, I've gotten it way mixed up and wrong on a few posters...and I ain't no newbie. :redface:

~Mysty

[Seanachie]

Even our corpses are stealthy, good luck finding them. :razz:

I'll pass on 'finding' them. I was a cop back in the seventies. Finding three stiffs was more than enough for me. The pungent odor of death is a smell that will never leave you. Now I know why the Firemen wore Scott Air Packs when they responded to my call about an old woman who naturally died in her sleep close to a gas fired space heater. I knew immediately she was long dead when I forced her front door open. That 'odor' hit me in the face as if a prize fighter had dealt me a knockout roundhouse right hook. No fun at all!

Be well and hopefully embalmed if someone does indeed find that 'stealthy' corpse.

Not a altogether bad idea Bally...would sure help keep my mouth and hoof disease down to a minimum on the subject. :redface: Or...maybe a blue/black title name for the guys..a pink/purple title name for the gals? Something easy and identifiable at a glance.

Good idea ....;)

Not very FEMININE of you, dear. Now you need to come over here and help me rearrange the doilies...

:angel:

[jeepers]

you isn't a newb

I love this.

[Army Wife]

Not very FEMININE of you, dear. Now you need to come over here and help me rearrange the doilies...

:angel:

We could do that....then whoop some tail feathers :cool:


I am SO glad I put "wife" in my screen name.....

[notluzn]

I asked a long time ago if we could have a symbol that tells others what sex we are. Some sights do it. :)

[Ballygrl]

They use the male and female sign, the woman with a circle and the arrow in pink, and the men have the circle with the plus sign in blue.

You totally reminded me of that commercial with your post. At least it's better then the one with..."That's my Mommy..the one with the saggy pantyhose!" :redface: lol...I think it was the "Legs" pantyhose commercial. Gotta love the oldies but goodies...heheheh

ROTFL! I so remember that one too...The Husband used the saggy pantyhose with The Daughter but he tells her he knows she's been farting in her stockings because of the wrinkles around her ankles :))

[Army Wife]

Maybe I need to open a Military Wives school to teach my tricks of the trade...would that help out for you ALBOB? :cool:

Hello A W,

Your hi-jinks and skills are indeed the anti-thesis to 'barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen'~!

Your quote reminds me of an interview with Ginger Rogers with regard to her dancing with Fred Astaire: (Para-phrasing here); "I could do everything Fred did.....only backwards AND in High Heels nonetheless". They were some of the most exquisite dancers I've ever seen....but she had Fred beat hands down with those deeply worded sentiments.

Ahhhh! You've painted a beautiful scenario with your eloquent words. I'll keep it in mind the next time a woman is cooking in my kitchen.... and I will quote you....of course! (unless She's pregnant sans footwear).

Be well,

Jim

[Army Wife]

Hello A W,

:)) Now that is a time in my life I DON'T want to go back to...swollen ankles and a sore back no thanks ;)

She like Audrey Hepburn was grace personified! Believe me I am not even in the same universe when it comes to grace as Ginger Rogers...unless you count my skills with a knife and some fine beef or chicken.

Why thank you Jim. I do have to admit I am a bit more like Julia Childs (picture flour flying everywhere... :)) ) in the kitchen but man oh man are the results worth it. Cooking for The Husband is easy as he is always up for trying another of my "experiments" when I get to rooting around in the cupboards. Thankfully in the last 23 years I have only had a small handful of misfires. My latest victory being grilled caramelized Bourbon peaches with creme fresh....sigh now those were melt in your mouth good.

Does that count for anything?

Hello again A W,

Your Husband is an extremely lucky man to have you in his life!

***To the OP and Jeepers....please forgive me for taking this Topic a wee bit off the Grand Highway of things.

Your posts AW have tickled me funny bones more than a few times as have many of the responses from the other Ladies here. This got me to thinking of an old Irish Ditty which I find impossible for me to sing with any justice whatsoever. It's called the 'Rattlin Bog" and is definitely G-rated.

NOW! If I could only find that 'rare' female vocalist who could do this song justice while doing exactly what you do in the kitchen sans mussed hair in her heels and stockings.

Great thing about women, we can multi-task.

:mrgreen:

I wonder if my 'female vocalist' fantasy theory would fit into the category of womanly 'multi-tasking'?


The following Youtube Link contains a very well done version of this old Irish folk song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_13vqD5or0&feature=related

I'm quite sure I will remain single to the end of me days using this criteria in finding a mate!; or any other half-baked criterial theories for that matter. LOL

Be well Ladies and thanks for the fine repartee,

Jim

PS: Anyone who perceives that the Irish are so lucky: Trust me...it ain't so in many respects; especially the one presented in this post.

[Army Wife]

Your Husband is an extremely lucky man to have you in his life!

I am just as lucky, as he is fairly easy to get along with... he tells me as long as he is fed (anything but white rice though he tells me I am corrupting him into like it here lately) and the bills are paid it really doesn't matter to him what I do with my time or how I spend money.
We when we got married we had a understanding that as long as we were married he would do the providing as long as I would live within what he provided. He said I would not have to work a day in my life outside the home and if I did what ever I earned was mine to do as I wanted and that he would not expect me to use any of it to pay bills. He believes that it is his place to take care of me (and The daughter) and I have felt, since we have been married, that it was my place to take as good a care of him as I could, keep all blemishes off his good name and to use wisely the resources he has provided. I have worked the last 23 years to make sure there was never even a hint of gossip in the air, if there had to be visitors of the opposite sex at the house it was done only when he was home or when I was able to have another lady there...not always easy when he was deployed but I made it work. In turn he did the same for me.


Your posts AW have tickled me funny bones more than a few times as have many of the responses from the other Ladies here.

Then my work here is a success :)) While I do seem to come across with a rather hard flint-like attitude (of which is rightly attributed) I also have a wickedly sharp (dry at times) morbid humor. I have no problems laughing at myself and finding and pointing out the off beat-ness of everyday life.


NOW! If I could only find that 'rare' female vocalist who could do this song justice while doing exactly what you do in the kitchen sans mussed hair in her heels and stockings.
I wonder if my 'female vocalist' fantasy theory would fit into the category of womanly 'multi-tasking'?

Why not the Husband cracks up when I turn on the Ipod and get.....ummm vocally inclined when cooking. And NO you do not want to hear the caterwauling colliding with the pots and pans :)) :)) That song reminds me of "There's a hole in the bottom of the Sea" that we use to sing with The Daughter when she was young.


I'm quite sure I will remain single to the end of me days using this criteria in finding a mate!; or any other half-baked criterial theories for that matter. LOL

You've just got to keep looking. Its like trying to find that perfectly crispy-ripe apple...sometimes you find what looks like a winner only to take a bite and find it mealy and nasty. Not everyone is a perfect Honeycrisp apple as it were...so why be satisfied with a Gala when you really want a Honeycrisp. If I could find my perfect "apple" I am sure you can as well.

[mysticbeauty_nbeast]

and she's modest too boot....gesh woman...you're making me look bad! lol It looks good on ya! ;)

Loved reading posts between Army wife and Sans...gave me a few good giggles. With ya on the singing though...not unless you like to hear dogs howl. :rolleyes: Oh, please send the recipe via PM for peaches and creme fresh..sounds wonderful!

I have to say, Jeepers has some great stories too. Haven't heard one in awhile though :think:...maybe time to dust one off and share Jeepers?

I swear the ladies here at Hannity have made me feel not so alien...your my kind of gals...I love it! Wayover, Gabby, Bella, Rhet, Dreamy and others have had me on the floor with some of their posts...:)) You gals are a true class act! ;)

I do remember hearing the Ginger Rogers comment..some DSC show on her a year or so back.....and thought to myself she said it with such panache....I don't think Fred held it against her for long..for she was right. They did dance so beautifully together. Ahhhh...the romantic in me coming out...quick...shove her back in the closet before anyone see's! lol

:hug:

LOL You crack me up! Me..? Modest...? Yeah right... :)) I freely admit I brag about doing 2 things VERY well...food and fabric. And I have no shyness in tooting my own horn in eitiher of those two departments...to a point.


Oh, please send the recipe via PM for peaches and creme fresh..sounds wonderful!

They are super easy. Just take fresh peaches (peeled or not your choice) cut in half remover the pits. Make a thick slurry of Muscadavo Brown sugar and balsamic vinegar and smear on the peaches. With a HOT grill cook them until they start to soften and have those fine grill marks. In a large skillet (nonstick is the best for clean up) put about a cup of sugar about 1/4 c bourbon and about 1/4 cup butter cook over med high heat till sugar starts to get that nice caramel color, drop in the peaches flat side down. Spoon the sugar over the peaches. Let it cook about 2-4 mins. toss them on a plate and serve with a spoon full of creme fresh or (my favorite) a splash of buttermilk or heavy cream and the extra caramel from the pan. See nothing to it ;)


Ahhhh...the romantic in me coming out...quick...shove her back in the closet before anyone see's! lol

:)) I have shocked a few friends when they find out I have Victorian leanings in decorating and dress when not at work...they just have a hard time meshing the two AW's

it seems to be my job of late...cracking people up..hey...keeps things light right? Let me tell ya..not the job I'd think I'd get stuck with at this point in my life...but there it is...amateur comedian wanna be hard at work...roflmao. (pssst...let you in on a little secret....I'm usually the really serious one in the group..the 'grown up'...so don't let it out I'm more like Lucy Riccardo then Margarate Thatcher.....;))

Oh yum! Sounds fantastic! Thanks! I do something similar with apples...Grannies/or very tart Greens...take out the balsamic from your receipe and trade it for white merlot wine or heavy merlot ; exchange bourbon for thick whole caramel, real butter and several heavy dollops of sourcream; take mixture taken down to a light simmer/boil..Pack openings of split apples with crushed nuts, cinnamon bread crumbs, and fresh real butter mixture before grilling or baking. When done, dribble fresh hot caramel sauce all over and serve with vanilla bean ice cream...great quick dessert on a moments notice.
