<font color="plum"><H2>Cloudy's Cafe</H2></font>

Come in, be welcome, be comfortable, be yourself

Welcome to Cloudy's Cafe, a place to have a cup of coffee or a good
darjeeling and the finest in conversation and camaraderie.

The proprietor asks that you follow a few simple guidelines:

<H2>this is a real conversation zone, not a role-play zone</H2>

[i]* no flaming; if you disagree with a viewpoint expressed by any patron, please do so in a civil manner
* any topic is fair game, but keep posts to the standards that Ziroc has set for the entire forum, please (ie: foul language is not appropriate and things should be suitable for all audiences)
-a side note from Cloudy: I see this as a place for those short
conversations about a new baby or the latest soccer fiasco, not for things that are big enough to warrant their own threads, by all means give those things the space they need and post separately!
* Please, no one word or smiley posts (Ziroc has declared them 'real spam' and the proprietor doesn't want the reputuation of "good spam" to suffer!)
* do feel free to be serious or silly and enjoy the company of others while you are here. By all means POST if you have something to say, even to start another topic , we can handle multiple chats, we're a CAFE!!! But be courteous and don't disrupt a conversation just to disrupt it.[i]

Come on in! The bar is stocked with coffees, teas, juices and waters from around theworld. And purple napkins, of course!

<font color="pink">The lighting is low, the golden oak counters and tables glow with inviting warmth. Near the window, the lighting is brighter, as comfy, plush leather armchairs wait for those who'd like to read a book while relaxing to music or just lazily watch the world go by.</font>

Cloudy, your hostess [img]graemlins/ladyhearts.gif[/img]

Hey Cloudy. [img]smile.gif[/img] *hops off of stage*

How ya doing?

Hey everybody! My doesn't it feel great to be back here in GTMO! :rolleyes: So what did I miss?

Eh...quite a bit RBF. ;) I'd go look up one of the 'three' threads we went through on April 14th. [img]smile.gif[/img] LOL...I don't think Cloudy's appreciated all our rambunctiousness. ;) Even though we didn't dance on the tables... [img]graemlins/angel.gif[/img]

:D

Did you have a nice time away?

Lioness you could just jump off the table and dance rather than you sing in the stage LOL :D

uhh.. Barbara Streissand? [img]smile.gif[/img]

uhh.. Barbara Streissand? [img]smile.gif[/img] </font>[/QUOTE]The donkey in Shrek. ;) Actually, I don't know the original writer. [img]smile.gif[/img]

LOL Bahamut, I don't table dance. Only cloud dance. ;)

At least you could try... *nags* :D

Hi, Cloudy, glad that you are feeling better. A/C probably helped becuse it filters out pollen #1 cause of sinus trouble this time of year. My morning run went really well. We have had tons of rainfall (wettest March in history) and the wildflowers are just popping up. Bluebonnets cover the roadside, Indian Paintbrush along with them, Texas Star (one of my favorites), and Broomflower, I saw all of these on my run. The grass is long and green, and it just makes me want to run out and join the new foals, rolling in the grass and whinnying.
Actually, uss, those are Southern sayings, and are said nowdays more in self-parody than otherwise. Texans (and Southerners) do not ever refer to themselves as Yankees. That is the people that live in the Northeastern U.S., like Cloudykins. As for your compatriots disapproval of U.S. actions, well, I can't muster enough emotion to worry. I might remind them that without us, they would still be under Russian domination, but they probably wouldn't care. As for you, you can read and write English, in an American forum, so you are probably a sneaky spy, trained to infiltrate IW secrets. :D

LOL Bahamut, I don't table dance. Only cloud dance. ;) </font>[/QUOTE]We'll sort that out sooner or later. ;) Though cloud dancing does me just fine for now. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Hi everyone! How are we all doing? [img]smile.gif[/img]

Okay i'll guess i'll do that then. [img]smile.gif[/img]

The cruise ship was huge. It was almost like being on a 14 story floating mall. Didn't have quite enough stores for that though. Everything was strangely overpriced, but I didn't care that much. Having to much fun for that! :D Of course until everyone went out for drinks and left me by myself. That was the only part that sucked. ;) I guess I was the designated walk everyone back to the cabin guy. Nassau was nice, and the Atlantis hotel in Nassau was nice too. And I got to see sand. Real sand of all things! [img]tongue.gif[/img] So to sum it up it was awesome! You should go on a cruise sometime! (just bring a friend who doesn't drink okay?) ;)

Sounds awesome Red. :D

I'm good, romey. [img]smile.gif[/img] (and I don't table dance) [img]tongue.gif[/img] where's Puff? ;)

Yeah, cruises like that are fu, I just have to keep Attalus away from the buffet. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

[img]graemlins/wavey.gif[/img]

Bye everybody! I've got to go for now. :( ;)

Glad to see you had such a great time RBF, would you like to go on a cruise again? Or was it a once only holiday in your opinion.

Well me too dang...

Nice ending caleb ruining my nice good ol convo with Yorick who I haven't even talked to for a long time... besides that nothing special yet LOL... So I'll see ya 10 hours later! :D

Yeah, everyone mysteriously leaves the second I walk in the door ;) Bye Lioness.

Not me, Sigmar, I leave afteer you get here. How's tricks?

oh come on, what secrets could i possibly get from here? plans how to kill firkraag? tell me how to kill him, and ill sell the info to the Russian government :D . ok, one other question for you, as an american. do americans have very much hate against Osama Ibn Ladin? ive seen many Osama killing games, so that means that most of you do hate him. but if you had a gun, and you would see Osama, would you kill him? this question goes for all the americans here. ok, this is a wierd topic.
Ps:T- Did you get Nodrom out of the maze? is he good?

Hi, Galadria, aren't the bluebonnets beautiful? I'm a huge fan of them. I've got some pictures of ones that I took last weekend (Sunday) around Denton, but I need to resize them before I post them up here.

Around Denton we get Primrose, Bluebonnet, and Indian Paintbrush all mixed together in a riot of pink, blue-violet, and red. I'm not sure what the purple ones are called (Vetch, I think?) but there's lot of it out there, too.

Cheers,

Dear Uss: I think Miss Galadria was joking; that's what the :D was for. Seriously, though, I certainly wouldn't kill anyone, although I have no love for that particular individual. There are probably others here who feel differently, but I have little or no dealings with them...those are people who would probably kill their own as well. :( I don't traffic with killers, not that I know of, at least.

Cheers,
-Saz

LOL Bahamut, I don't table dance. Only cloud dance. ;) </font>[/QUOTE]oh, ive seen that movie! its pretty good! but i think Emperors New Groove was still better [img]smile.gif[/img] . have you seen Fight Club, Requiem: For A Dream of American Psycho? those are good movies :D ! and the best comedies arent movies like Scary Movie. they are stuff like Monty Python, Top Secret, Airplane. though this is very off topic :D

Someone called for a Yankee girl? ;) Haha!

I do hate allergy season but it's not TOO bad yet and AC helps immensely. I find it is easier to fight things off when you actually get some sleep! :D

Everything is blooming up here too, Galadria!

if you dont traffic with killers, why are you talking to me :D
actually, i wouldnt do it either. i dont really hate him, though i wanna know what was the purpose of his actions. i think hes too much of a religious guy to do it just for fun [img]smile.gif[/img] .

<font color="lawngreen"> Good morning everyone.... How are things around the globe today??</font>

<font color="lawngreen"> [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img] awwwww I missed Nessie being here.... what bad luck for me :( </font>

And you almost missed me as well.... I'm off to bed for the night after a couple more posts..... Goodnight everyone!

<font color="lawngreen">Awwwww.... All of my spammy teen fwiends are leaving me :( :( :( Ah well... another day of chating with adults :D </font>

Uss, in answer to your question, if Osama were in my gunsights, and there was no way that I could take him prisoner (which I would infinitely prefer) and if I didn't, he would get away, then

POW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<font color="lawngreen"> Arent you just a good samaritan Galadria ;) [img]smile.gif[/img] </font>

It's ok Glorifiendell you've still got me...

"I love the smell of Exoskeletal Carcass in the morning!"

OH frabjous day! Summer must be around the corner. My dufus neighbor is riding his lawnmower around and around and the other day he was running the engine and staring at it in the driveway! [img]tongue.gif[/img] Well... could you ask for a more interesting neighbor? I mean, this guy entertains me regularly by going to his mailbox for the sunday paper and scratching where the sun don't shine then spitting... oh and did I mention, he's usually in his underwear? [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img]

<font color="pink">Good evening everyone! I meant to post on this last night, but my parents were being stupid [img]tongue.gif[/img] .

Our jazz band did really well. Im so proud! We got best trumpet section out of the high schools, and of course our middle school won everything in their division(that used to b me lol). There werent many bands this year, and ours was totally blown out of the water by Mnt. Carmel and the Poway A Band(hosts), who sound like professionals. Then after the awards the pros came on, and i was like mesmerized they were so good. The drummer was some old guy, and he had like this 50 measure solo, and he was going nuts! He did this awesome thingy on the symbols(sp? maybe its cymbols), so naturaly everyone was jumping outta their seats :D .

Ok so can someone tell me where i can dl ICP because when i typr it in my search i get insane clown posse lol

Edit: o stupid me no wonder, its ICQ! Im such a blonde sometimes lol (even though im brunette :D )</font color="pink">

It's c-y-m-b-a-l-s Lady Blue. Sometimes I'm such a brunette, even though I'm a blonde. [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]
P.S. I'm glad you did well.

Alright LadyBlue! Sounds like you did ok and had a great time!

I'm sitting here btw vacuuming and shampooing the carpet in my bedroom. Seems my kitties were on a major campaign to force the issue.. they barfed and dropped other stuff on it all week! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Charming :D
Sounds like you're feeling better Cloudy, good to hear [img]smile.gif[/img]
@ Lady Blue, congrats on the Jaz thing (wish I could play music :( )
Hi Galadria, howse it?

Galadria! I know this isn't your specialty but I had a general question... how rare or common is it these days for older women to be having babies?
