REECE!
I am totally sorry, man. I honestly remember replying to your response that I did not make an inquiry of you, and I apologize, because sometimes I type out a multi-reply in Notepad, highlight it, and then it gets deleted before I cut-and-paste it. Then I have to do the whole thing again, and sometimes I leave out part of the intended multi-reply on the second try. I know I wrote you a question after you called me on it, because I remember the question almost word for word. (Ironically, Catlynn threw a variation of it at Grace in the last hour.)
You're on a desert island with a perpetual motion generator (for endless electricity), a TV, and a DVD player. For the rest of your life, you get ONE DVD (a single disc, not a set) of an anime. What anime is it?
Sorry that got lost in the hot mess that this thread has become, man. (Not a criticism of the thread...it's a fun hot mess.)

Oooh, okay then! Let's see...
Cosmetic: Chap stick.
Medication: Antibiotic ointment, because you never know.
Clothing: I'd go with a sarong too. Who knew a square of light fabric could be so versatile?
Survival Tool: A sharp toothed hand saw.
Hopefully my saw is lying conveniently against a tree waiting for me to scuff my binding ropes against in order to free myself.
At which point I will take my saw and cut enough banana leaves to dress myself, enabling me to use my handy sarong as a net for fishing, then as a sack to carry my foraged fruit in, and finally as a cover to protect against mosquitoes.
I will use my chap stick on my sunburn, and sell my antibiotic ointment to the native tribe on the next island over, after using my sarong to para-sail across the water for a friendly visit.

Ah, YES! good catch. You were "bound," a bit of an addition, wasn't it? 
You SAW the light, I think, a knife would have been the BEST choice . But, I think, the saw will work. You do have it right by your side, although you DO still have to explain to me how you can pick up the hacksaw and use it to cut the ropes wrapped around your hands and feet

I thought of a knife but I'd probably end up cutting myself trying to work my hands into position for proper knife-sawing.
Now it's your turn. Except that you are in the bottom of a canyon, tied up in a sleeping bag.

Gracey:
I am claustrophobic, that just won't work
I would have a knife, to carefully cut myself out of the bag and the rope binding me.
I would use the knife to make a spear out of a stick so I can spear fish.
I would have rocks around me so I can start a fire.
Hey, I'm set, I don't even need anything else ! protein and water. What else does a man need surviving in a canyon.
But, just to be comfy I would have a big huge tarp to sleep on, keep them buggers out. Comfy, comfy, just a man and his sleeping bag and fish, fish, fish. Sounds fishy to me . My fourth item would be my bible

well said, kentom, oh, and, yeah, about the different colors, I know what I'm gonna get you for Christmas
That's the 120 crayon box, brother, just about the biggest size you can buy. Soooo many colors
That's mine, don't worry, yours will be a new box[/QUOTE]
Looks yummy.

Who said I could read? But yeah, I use voices but then you knew that didn't you. It drives me nuts that you're all perceptive and hone in on stuff like you do. Anyway, yes I sometimes use made up voices and other times imitations. Like if I'm in a political argument I'll start sounding like Barney Frank and spit all over everybody. If I'm in the shower I'm singing like Roger Daltry and I'm told (neice) that I can make "twas the night before Christmas' sound scary because I can only say it in the Queen's english and in a real low voice 'nowt a crrrrreature was stirrrrring, nowt eeeven a mousssse.' Just now when you and Catlyn were going back and forth about your kids - "so how many babies?" "two, 17 and 13" "oh wow...I just have the one, a daughter 3 but my sisters babies...." and so on I was using my soccer mom voice. It wasn't because I think you or Catlyn actually ARE like a sterotypical soccer mom , but rather (going back to your original perception of me) I can't help it. (I was sounding like Bill Clinton just then.)

Ok, obviously I own this post right now
But, OK, catty, I got a question for you.
Why don't you make up your own thread on this great idea you said earlier: You know you are addicted to c.c. when.....
It would be a fun thread The Lord leads It's your thread but, you just say the word, and, I will make it my own

This...
It was designed to dismember people...and things....but it works for EVERYTHING!
There's one to try, Poppy. And a scar, hmmm..... Only small ones. The one embarrassing accident (carelessness with boiling water) that "should" have left a huge scar didn't.
Haha, I got a good laugh out of imagining your dog with an ice cream container on its head, Lil Christian XD! Thanks for posting the pic too
.Hmmm, good question, Pop. When I was younger it was perhaps Mercury; the thought of being that hot wasn't quite unpleasant
. After "they" decided Pluto was no longer a planet, I got kinda disenchanted with the whole solar system thing .

Oooohhh... I'm going to save this one for the "How to survive a zombie apocalypse" thread. Ha. That thing looks wicked.
We grew up with the Cajun version of The Night Before Christmas. I bet you'd have fun with this one!
[SIZE=+1]Cajun Night Before Christmas[/SIZE]
Twas the night before Christmas an' all t'ru de house,
Dey don't a ting pass Not even a mouse.
De chirren been nezzle good snug on de flo',
An' Mama pass de pepper t'ru de crack on de do'.
De Mama in de fireplace done roas' up de ham,
Sit up de gumbo an' make de bake yam.
Den out on de by-you dey got such a clatter,
Make soun' like old Boudreau done fall off his ladder.
I run like a rabbit to got to de do',
Trip over de dorg an' fall on de flo'.
As I look out de do'in de light o' de moon,
I t'ink, "Mahn, you crazy or got ol' too soon."
Cux dere on de by-you w'en I stretch ma'neck stiff,
Dere's eight alligator a pullin' de skiff.
An' a little fat drover wit' a long pole-ing stick,
I know r'at away got to be ole St.Nick.
Mo' fas'er an' fas'er de' gator dey came
He whistle an' holler an' call dem by name:
"Ha, Gaston! Ha, Tiboy! Ha, Pierre an' Alcee'!
Gee, Ninette! Gee, Suzette! Celeste an'Renee'!
To de top o' de porch to de top o' de wall,
Make crawl, alligator, an' be sho' you don' fall."
Like Tante Flo's cat t'ru de treetop he fly,
W'en de big ole houn' dorg come a run hisse's by.
Like dat up de porch dem ole 'gator clim!
Wit' de skiff full o' toy an' St. Nicklus behin'.
Den on top de porch roof it soun' like de hail,
W'en all dem big gator, done sot down dey tail.
Den down de chimney I yell wit' a bam,
An' St.Nicklus fall an' sit on de yam.
"Sacre!" he axclaim, "Ma pant got a hole
I done sot ma'se'f on dem red hot coal."
He got on his foots an' jump like de cat
Out to de flo' where he lan' wit' a SPLAT!
He was dress in musk-rat from his head to his foot,
An' his clothes is all dirty wit' ashes an' soot.
A sack full o' playt'ing he t'row on his back,
He look like a burglar an' dass fo' a fack.
His eyes how dey shine his dimple, how merry!
Maybe he been drink de wine from de blackberry.
His cheek was like a rose his nose a cherry,
On secon' t'ought maybe he lap up de sherry.
Wit' snow-white chin whisker an' quiverin' belly,
He shook w'en he laugh like de stromberry jelly!
But a wink in his eye an' a shook o' his head,
Make my confi-dence dat I don't got to be scared.
He don' do no talkin' gone strit to hi work,
Put a playt'ing in sock an' den turn wit' a jerk.
He put bot' his han' dere on top o' his head,
Cas' an eye on de chimney an' den he done said:
"Wit' all o' dat fire an' dem burnin' hot flame,
Me I ain' goin' back by de way dat I came."
So he run out de do' an, he clim' to de roof,
He ain' no fool, him for to make one more goof.
He jump in his skiff an' crack his big whip,
De' gator move down, An don' make one slip.
An' I hear him shout loud as a splashin' he go,
"Merry Christmas to all 'til I saw you some mo'!"

Good question. I'm not one of those girls who had wedding magazines when they were younger or browsed the internet looking at dresses. I did, however, find one on Pinterest that I really liked a while back. THIS ONE (click)
I like the style and the details. I don't know if it would look good on me, but something classic but pretty, not too blingy but with some cool details. But I can't say for sure, since I don't look that much. Maybe I should.
However, I want to be really cheap with my wedding, and preferably spend a very small amount on my dress (like...under $300), and I very highly doubt that dresses like the one I posted are that cheap. I can dream!

Catlynn asks: To everyone:
What is your favorite ethnic food? (meaning: food from somewhere other than your country)
--------
Bento ! A little teriyaki salmon pate`, or, is it 'patty.' And, big dab of wasabi and ginger slices and tempura battered stuff and I' m more california roll too, but it's not on this plate. What were they thinking ! We also have a place here that has a pickled octopus and seaweed appertizer that's yum. Also, there is fish on there.....
AND, good sushi, like that 'red meat' there is a tuna I'm pretty sure and it actually tastes quite good, a flavor that puts Charlie Tuna to shame. One time, at a sushi bar place, I went with a couple oriental friends and we tried all kinds of sushi. The shrimp, crab, calamari, octopus, lobster, and, yes, tuna, was all good, but, then I got adventurous, peer pressure because my buddies were having it. I had ugage eel and rainbow trout bits and just about gagged after eating each one. The stomach was soo close to giving me a hurl
