Nicely done! And I'm excited to be the first comment. I haven't done that in....who knows...I'm terrible with space and time and other such crap....really.
BTW, I think you should play Pebble with Tiger. it would be a fitting first date.

Winter is a fantastic season. It snows! I can already see your defense, "I have to drive in that crap to get to work! I have to clear it off my driveway! My car gets covered in it!" Considering you have a garage and that you live very close to work, it's a terrible excuse.
As for the wood thing, I suggest a catapult.
Glo said:
Yeah, Jym! I'm with you! Up with winter, man!
*sigh* I miss the trees most. Cali is always green or brown. That gets dull after a while.

Awww...how sweet! Mrs. Omar Phillips is your #1 celebrity crush.
Glo said:
That is sweet...hmmm...now I'm padding Omar's comments. it's like old times here...

That was the best meme I've ever read. I actually read the whole thing, though usually I skip thru them. (My attention span is limited, my brain is aged, and 100 things, that's just too many.)
PS, I think Jym's catapult idea is brilliant. Brilliant! You should build it, Omar.

so I was ahead of the group? I did this meme ages ago. not to uh *buffs nails on sweater* boast or anything.
Nadia's birthday is in may. so you know.
Mrs Omar Phillips a.k.a The wife is a celebrity. we all know it. we all acknowledge it. *waves to The Wife*
winter? I'm sorry those of us with daily 32 degree celcius weather have not heard of this creation called weather.
I said:
glo - Since you are indirectly responsible for this, I appreciate you padding my comments.
jym - Passing right by all that crap about winter, I think the catapult idea has merit. I'll keep you up to date on my progress.
cate - I think I've said before, I'm so sweet, I'm like molasses. I like to tell myself that it's why she picked me.
cadiz - A local celeb, maybe. But she hasn't gone worldwide yet.
17 - (bows) I tried to keep it short, to the point. And I will be building the catapult.
I said:
syar - Yes, you were way ahead of me on this meme. And re: winter, BAH. It was in the mid 40's fahrenheit (about 7 degrees celsius) and windy today.

Mrs. Philips is one lucky woman ;)
RaJ said:
Great list. But seriously, come on: how often do you say Bah? And surely you *can* watch people dance the Electric Slide. Might trigger a gag reflex or some kind of fit, okay, but "can't?" I have doubts, Omar.
Which is not to say I have even the slightest clue re: Electric Slide. Is it a type of dance, or a game-machine, or what? On second thought, don't answer that. I suspect this is one of those Ignorance Is Bliss things.

HAHAHA! I LAUGH AT YOU!
No offense, Mrs Phillips, but there's a very high chance I could own your husband at one-on-one.

Hang on there, youngster. Just because I was not blessed with height doesn't mean I don't have skills on the court. I don't know if your chances are that high.
