James the Defender 7 Posted August 8, 2012 Open Office does not know the word coruscant (Kuh-RUHS-kant) which means gleaming, or jeweled, but it knows Darth and Vader. Wow. Coruscant is an English word...darth and vader are Dutch words meaning dark and father... #ThingsWhichMakeMeWonder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted August 11, 2012 Went camping this weekend, and so far it's pretty much done nothing but rain. The campground is 15 minutes from work, so I'm working tonight and going camping again in the morning. But they don't have hot water in the showers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted August 13, 2012 More canning today. I bought the wrong spices too! Gotta go back to the store Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) One of my dogs has some mild hip dysplasia. Really weird for a beagle. :???: Edited August 13, 2012 by Radioactive Isotope Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora 77 Posted August 13, 2012 That is weird for a beagle. We always had giant breed dogs, where it's really common. Heart breaking when they got to be really old and the hip dysplasia got very bad. I hope you're able to keep it under control for your puppy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted August 13, 2012 She's 4ish, so not really a puppy anymore. But we're working with a vet to keep it from getting too bad. Right now she doesn't act like it hurts, she just holds it up and gimps around sometimes. We're starting with some NSAID injections to see if that will give her some relief and go from there if it doesn't. This is the dog we got from a friend because my husband was a softy for their sob story. She's turning out to be an expensive little service project, lol.

Princess 35 Posted August 22, 2012 And now poor Furday is stuck at the airport Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bad furday 57 Posted August 23, 2012 It was a five hour delay! They switched planes in Orlando for safety reasons, and weather, and then because the new plane was larger (some people ended up sitting by themselves!) they needed to get more crew. Alltogether, it was a 5 hour delay. Instead of landing at 6:30, I came in at 11:30. I was very tired :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James the Defender 7 Posted August 24, 2012 Interesting this is: As I study Turkish I always wonder weather some of the words found in the SW galaxy come from that particular language. This is probably coincidence, but we all know the race the Killiks. Well, kilik, with one "L" in Turkish means "disguise." I thought that was interesting.

Bad furday 57 Posted August 28, 2012 So at the airport, I met a nice lady who will hopefully become a member here! It was great...she said she was going to sit with me because I was wearing a Star Wars shirt, and then we talked for like...twenty minutes about everything SW related, really, I hoped she was on my flight, but she was on her way to Texas. A man seated next to her told me that my flight from Orland to Syracuse had been moved to a different gate. We quickly said farewell, and I ran off to the new gate. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted August 28, 2012 Didja get her number? My flight home was half full of star wars fans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bad furday 57 Posted August 29, 2012 No I gave her my card...and GBnet's addy I wrote on the back, but no...like I said, I was in a bit of a rush to get to the new gate that my plane was assigned to. Yes, I had a few fans on mine as well, they were the same ones I'd met on the way down to Orlando. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted August 29, 2012 The flight attendent didn't realize until we were getting off why half the plane had Star Wars shirts on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bad furday 57 Posted August 29, 2012 Bahahahahaha! Ana agrees with me that we ought to clone Anthony Daniels, and have him to all the safety briefings for onboard demonstrations in planes. It'd be like ...15 Minutes with Anthony Daniels :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
