TRUE STORY

My sister never had a gun, never wanted a gun.

BUT, this is what her husband gave her for Christmas the first year they were married. A rifle and lessons on how to shoot it.

I can’t think of a funny caption that would be printable.

Ann - still rolling her eyes at the memory.

My word verification is age41. That was a looonnnggg time ago!!!!!!!

Good Morning Squawkers:

I don’t have a photo caption, but I do have a little problem/complaint:  I am a registered user of this site and I do have a working email address.  I know this because I get all your announcements.....twice.  That’s right, it is still happening.  Ever since the transition from old format to new format, any announcements sent, I get double.  Does anyone else have this problem?  I wrote about it a while back when it first happened and I think it was Christina who told me it was a problem and that it was being repaired....but still happening.  In fact got Eloisa’s announcement on 10-31-06 about Anne Stuarts’s visit twice.  I’m getting used to it; read one and delete the other.

Is something being done about this?  OK rant over and thanks for listening.

Now this here’s what we call the “Perfect Repeater”.  Check out the Pump Action on this baby.  Every man ought to own one.

"You mean you’ll give me this terrific 12 gauge just for opening an account at your bank?”

BTW, where do these verification codes come from?  Can you believe my code for this post is ‘police69’? Hmmmmm.....maybe I should rethink this caption....nah!!!

"Your daughter just started dating, you say? In that case, let me recommend this lovely model.”

"Beginning this Frida”?

I know you meant “Friday”, but when I first read it… I did think… “What’s a Frida?  Frida Kahlo?”

I know I’m overdressed, but I swear I’ve got a plaid shirt and blaze orange vest at home.

Pick me!  Pick me!  Today is my birthday, and I didn’t win a copy of Cold as Ice, so I’m consoling myself with my children’s Halloween candy.  Okay, I’d be eating the candy anyway, but now I have an excuse.

Hmm, come to think of it, my caption should read, “This’ll keep your mom away from your chocolate.”

Happy Birthday Rachel!  LOL at your caption.  Believe me, not even that would keep me away from the chocolate.

"Yes, it’s the same model used on Bonzana!  If you buy this, you can be Adam too!”

I always though Adam was hotter than Little Joe.

Yes, Sarah, Frida is the secret member of our little group here ... actually, Connie doesn’t know the meaning of the words “spell check.”

Karen H, Up until now, we’ve had the old membership addresses working from the old Squawk and the new ones from our shiny new site. Now we’re cutting off the old ones (hence the membership drive), so you’ll only get one letter.

"Oooh.......shiny.........”

"Trust me, this model is guaranteed to bring you more pleasure than Viagra.”

"Listen, Joe, I need a favor… Mac helped me hide the body, but I still need to dispose of the gun. Can I leave it with you?”

"This will keep away any varmit that tries to get through your front door, or your daughter’s bedroom window!”

“I know this because I get all your announcements.....twice.  That’s right, it is still happening.  Ever since the transition from old format to new format, any announcements sent, I get double.  Does anyone else have this problem?”

My RSS reader sometimes shows the same post twice.  Is that similar to what’s happening to you?

"Here, hold the butt in one hand and let your other hand just glide up and down that long shaft.”

How many of these would you like Mr. Capone ?

OK, it zapped my comment.....we’ll try again.

“How many of these would you like Mr. Capone?”

I was going to put in a caption about Dick Cheney but have decided instead to be good.
**halo gleaming brightly**

Appropriately emough my word verification is:
strong48

"Just pump twice and off he goes!”

My word verification is better97, maybe someone’s trying to tell me something. . .I’ll keep thinking

"No man should be without a long Winchester.”

"you’ll be the envy of all your buddies with this big boy”

--dorothy

my verification word was ‘room65’, I wonder what it was trying to tell me there? 

"What whaddaya know, Sam? It does have my name written all over it!”

**

“I can see myself!”

**

“Gee. I don’t know. A shotgun just seems so...impersonal.”

**

“Are you sure? I’d hate to show up to a shotgun wedding with a rifle.”

"You can point your gun at me anytime, Clive”

(my word verification now is least46)

Happy Birthday Rachel!  I’ve been stealing the kids’ halloween chocolate too, but I don’t have an excuse for it… I just take it!

My birthday is tomorrow, the day of the first day of the draw, wouldn’t be nice to win?  It might just be the ONLY present I get.

Can’t count on my husband, he’s not worth crap when it comes time to give gifts.  I didn’t even get a dang card for our last anniversary—I mean, it’s the least a guy can do for his wife dontcha think?  Hey, I’m not asking for much am I?

Oh, and my word verification is HAND33!  I’m become convinced these are subliminal messages…

"I only bring out the big guns on special dates Sweetheart!”

Happy Birthday (tomorrow) Froggie!  I have a sister who shares your birthday.

I helped my husband with my gift this year.  I bought the gift for him.  Then helped him install it (an instant hot water tap for the kitchen sink).  I’ve given up on hoping he’ll guess what I want, or think of something to surprise me, and just accepted the fact that (usually) I’m better at giving gifts than he is.  At least this way I get what I want.  And I LOVE my gift this year.

Early Happy Birthday to you, Froggie!  It was fun chattingwith you at the Halloween Mash on WriterSpace.

"Now I recommend this model for gratuitous gorgeous when wet shots.”

“Run away with me.” (Has nothing to do with the gun or Sin City, but it’s what I think every time I see that pic *g*)

---------Sign Up List-------

I signed up (old and new lists) and I get Connie’s notices, but I didn’t get Eloisa’s notice about Anne Stuart being here.  I stop by everyday, but would still like to get the advance warnings .. errr I mean notices

---------Captions-----------
I think I’ll go with Theresa’s picture of Clive.  “All clear now, baby.  Let’s go home and get outta these wet clothes.”
sighhh I’m so there! 

"Geez, I’m out of breath running from those crazy female fans.”

“Oh no you didn’t just hit on my wife.”

"No. Really. It honestly was just a gun in my pants.”

"But now...”

(On Clive’s pic, obviously.)

Rachel, happy birthday!  and froggie, you too in advance! (It’s so much better to choose our presents, mine are always romance books, of course! heheeh)

Caption:

“Now do I look like one of your damned heroes from your romance novels or what? And go get a nurse costume cos I aint the only one here fulfilling sexual fantasies, ok?”

Hey! My verification word id turn24… I turned 24 3 months ago… hummm!! Maybe we should take these words and make them work in our life! Hahaha Kinda of an horoscope…

"You want to see the whole steely length of this?”

And if Clive were asking, my answer would unequivocally be “yuh huh”!

I’m sorry Connie, but I can’t see your picture.  It looks like the guy holding the gun is holding up a butcher shop...even with my glasses on.  He must really want bologna. 

BTW, I loved the Hot Dish review and your interview on Romance buy the book. 

If anyone else wants to see:

Clive caption:

“Ok, one more time love, this is my pistol, this is my gun, this is for fighting, this is for fun ... “

Hahahaha good one, Susie!! 

Oh my, what naughty imaginations
I’m lovin’ these captions!

Moral99.............LMAO!

Clive does look like he’s about to go all “Derek Craven” on someone, doesn’t he? 

Registered with fingers crossed. lol

LOL!!!  Susie...good one! 

My word verification is “dead83”...*scratches head*

“What whaddaya know, Sam? It does have my name written all over it!”

Is this a Supernatural reference?

And, stealing from the best,

“You know, it ain’t altogether wise, sneaking up on a man when he’s handling his weapon.”

Captions:

“What do you mean that size doesn’t matter?!”

****

Shooting in the rain!  I just love to shoot in the rain!  Dum-dee-dum-dee.

****

It’s not a gun, it’s a Winchester.

***

Weather for today:  Sunny skies, no chance of rain.

***

Clive Owen.  Need I say more?

***

Hat man (seeing guy stroking his gun):  Hey!  I don’t even get dinner at least!

Thanks you guys for the birthday wishes!

I went and checked to make sure I was on the members list… saw my name on page 17.  *Sigh or relief*

I really enjoyed the Halloween Party at Writerspace too Keira.  Glad you recognized me!  Like I said, you’re my new best friend

Now what’s the subliminal message this time?  It says ‘extent38’ Don’t know what that means!!

ooo…

“I can’t help that I’m so bloody sexy!  Damn fan mobs!”

Ok...it says getting98...getting 98 of WHAT???

Others helped me register since I’m AOL - crossing fingers lol.

For Lynda Carter and Friend

“With this ring I thee wed...”

“No more monkey business or I’ll kick your a$$.”

“Wonder Woman and the Amazing Ape practice the quadrille.”

"That’s right, my friend—carry one o’ these, and they’ll never say nuthin’ bout them ROMANCE NOVELS yer always readin’!”

is it just me, or does anyone else also not find Clive Owen even the slightest bit attractive? or, for that matter, Russel Crowe?

*runs and hides from teresa*

Sid, it’s not just you....

*move over, I need to hide too*

"Well, it is cheaper than a sport car. And you can pretend yours is the same length.”

“Oh, yeah, Mel screwed up and they cast me instead.”

Man, when you say you’re going to pull out the big guns, you REALLY pull out the big guns!

Easily applicable to either picture!

Sid & Tammy, count me in.  I don’t find those guys attractive at all.

*written from under computer desk*

Sid, Sid, Sid! 

You are a brave soul especially with Russell Crowe coming out with a new movie next Friday that looks like, gulp, a romance. 

There’s be no keeping Teresa down now!  We’ll be plummeled wtih shots of Russell Crowe; although, she has yet to post that ‘tighty whitey’ tell tale shot she keeps talking about.

guy holding the gun: “So you say you work for the Post Office?”

****

“This will sure get that FEMA check in the mail”

****Clive Captions

thinking: “200 calories at lunch, 75 calories for the snack...crap, I can’t have that beer later...Teresa would whine if I got fat and ugly.”

****

Singing song in his head: “One little, two little, three little Indians ...four little, five little...”

word: him45

@ Haven

"Good. Bad. I’m the guy with the gun.”

Hey, that tighty-whitey shot is just for me!  (And well, for Lisa )

Teresa, why are you uuuup so early?

What happened to Wonder Woman? Now people will think I’m bizarre and hallucinating...well, they probably do anyway.

My code is are35. No, I are not.

Who is Wonder Woman? Besides, you know, the superhero (did you know that Wonder Woman the Movie is coming out relatively soon? And the guy who is making it is Joss Whedon, of Buffy fame)

Good morning, Janelle!  We’re off to the Southern Magic Reader’s Luncheon in Birmingham, Alabama today.  (Well, actually the luncheon is tomorrow but we’re leaving today.)

So I have to vacuum, pack, go visit my mom in the nursing home, etc., and all by 12 PM when we’re leaving!  Actually, I would have liked to sleep later but my cat Buffy jumped up on my dresser at 5:15 a.m. and starting biting my jewelry.  Wicked cat!  When the time changed last week, somebody forgot to reset the cats.

BTW, everyone, those deceptively cute barbarians in my avatar are my triplets!

Oh, Janelle, what beauties!  You must be so proud! 

And of course I’m not offended if anyone doesn’t like Russell or Clive.  That just leaves more time for me and Lisa to enjoy them

Aaaw, how sweet Janelle, I would say that you are “wonder woman”!

Janelle, I was just about to ask who those darlings were!!

Blessings!
Santa

SusieQ2 -

I’m going to print off your avatar and put it in the girls’ scrapbook. Then I’m going to write “look, girls, you were almost as cute as Puss ‘N Boots!”

This is a test to see if I set up an avatar properly so things may look goofy

Karen H in NC

So, that tighty whitey shot is just for you and Lisa! Not a problem!  I guess we’ll just have to take your word for it at least until he is another period piece that requires him to wear inexpressibles or smalls.  Yes, smalls sounds about right!

<In the voice of Antonio Banderas> “You do me great justice, my lady.” <Exits with a low-sweeping bow>

That will be cute Janelle!  I can just imagine the size of a scrapbook for triplets.  I really need to take up the hobby.  My sister loves it.

Trust me, Santa.  If you saw this pic, the word “smalls” would NOT be in your vocabulary

(And I kid you not--my verification word is large58!)

"You know I’m coming back if this thing’s not waterproofed.”

‘hem.

I think Clive’s pretty. Russell doesn’t do it for me, though, so I’m half an outcast.

(rate85. hmmm)

"Come out of there with your clothes off.”

Is this a Supernatural reference?

***

Nope, Firefly. Though i have watched the show. But only a couple of times.

***

I wouldn’t kick Russell Crowe out of bed, but I’m more of a Clive gal meself…

***

Clive: If I’m not back in five minutes...wait a little longer.

Okay, my word ver is: strength69
